lem, in fact with this accommodation Mr. Baer could
install a thirty minute parking limit on R and 12th
street without in the least bit harming the students.
Another item to relieve the parking situation is
the clearing of the corner north of Bessey Hall. This
vast amount of space which will eventually be utilized
by the University as the Memorial Mall, could also be
converted into a student parking campus. It will be
some time before definite action will be taken to de
velop the bare space on this corner of the campus and
as officials are awaiting for their plans to materialize,
why not use this for an answer to the parking situation.

and busses could speed down R street in front of the
campus as fast as the city speed limit would allow. In
fact Lincoln could have a direct speed-way running
down R street in front of the campus and another one
running down 16th street on fraternity row! If this is
the aim of the city officials why not start immediately
to utilize all the available space on the campus for re
lieving the parking problem?

PRESIDENTIAL
POSSIBILITIES
ON NON-UNIVERSITY STUDENTS
If university students would seek a few hints on
for parking purposes is proposed by J. E. in the Soap self-reliance in thought, they would do well to leave the
. Box as a possible solution to the parking problem. He
points out that either the present Hrill field or the space
being cleared north of Bessey Hall and Morrill Hall
could be used for this purpose. This would clear the
streets of the congestion caused by the present inade
quate parking facilities.
The proposal to convert the drill field into a space
for parking seems at first a foolish one. If it would
necessitate a removal of the R. O. T. C. parade grounds
to a less suitable spot merely for the convenience of
those students driving cars to school, the idea would
rot be worth considering.
But the erection of Andrews Hall has made the
sacred portals of learning and find out what their
brethren (and sisters) in the banks and industrial of
fices are thinking about, outside of office hours.
The universities still provide a refuge for dream
ers. Many of the students in any modern university
come from rich or protected homes. They have had
little or no experience with real life, although they may
have seen it and attempted to engage in it.
Still others have come to college from poorer
homes, but proudly bearing the record of a brilliant
scholastic career. Their brilliancy has caused their par
ents to make magnificent sacrifices on their behalf;

ners and an excellent; education. That
peculiar earnestness that later be
came one of his distinguishing char
acteristics showed itself in his earl
iest years. He applied himself to his
studies in the public schools of Oswe
go, Newark and New York, won his
Phi Beta Kappa as a junior at Brown
University, and was graduated in
1881, at the age of 19, with honors
in classics. His qualities won him
one of the two Carpenter premiums
awarded to the two members of the
graduating class who "shall, in the
judgment of the faculty, unite in the
highest degree the three most impor
tant elements for success in life
ability, character and attainment."
Mr. Hughes, it was evident from
the beginning, possessed these at
tributes in high degree. He was later
to have an opportunity, vouchsafed

enough and very suitable for a drill field.
As long as the military department continues to
use the present parade ground, it would be useless to
agitate a movement to allow parking within that space.
But if they should see fit to move to a larger area
such as that being established south of the Coliseum,
there is little reason why students should not be al
lowed to park their cars in the space north of Social
Sciences building at least until preparations for a
mall would be under way.
Students should bear in mind, however, that the
difficulty of parking under the present regulations is
not the most important reason for the numerous com
plaints against the recent rulings. It is. rather, that
the present traffic regulaions are encouraging, rather
than discouraging, city traffic on streets adjacent to marry into another race?

danger to student pedestrians that the University has
been striving to avoid.
say that they are not idealists, but they prefer to see
their ideals translated into terms of everyday life.
Over last week-end several university students led
"discussion" groups composed of non-university stu
dents, and they found that an exchange of university
student thought, and non-university etudent thought
was one of he most beneficial things possible for both
concerned.
We students from the university sally forth with
the theme "Ideal Life", elaborated into a thousand
words in our pockets. And we get the question in re
turn, "Just what is meant by the commandment, thou
shalt love thy neighbor as thyself?"
We might discourse eloquently before them on
the brotherhood of man and the foolishness of racial
differences, and they ask, "Is it right for a man to

CoTern or of N. Y.
Mr. Hughes was elected Governor,
receiving a plurality of 57,897 votes
over William R. Hearst, Independent.
On Jan. 1, 1907, he assumed public
office for the firs I time. Theodore
Roosevelt was President. Robert M.
La Follette was Senator from Wis
consin. The political pendulum had
swung to the side of reform. The
times were Progressive. There was a
vast passion for surbing monopolies,
breaking up trusts, regulating public
utilities and otherwise remolding
the world nearer to the liberals' de
sire.
The end of his first term aa Gov
ernor found Mr. Hughes with his re
forming zeal undiminished. He was
renominated and re-elected. But he
had already become unpopular with
the politicians. His relations with
the Republican organization in New
York State were anything but happy.
He rode into office for the second
time on the issue of race-track
gambling.
He was still ihe idol of the Pro
gressives a term not to become
politically current until 1,912, but

Mr. Hughes was while Governor of
New York. ' With the rank, and file
of Republican politicians, Mr.
Hughes not at ease, nor did he evoke
in them that sentiment of loyalty
usually so accessible to men In high
office.
On Supreme Bench
In 1910 President Taft appointed
Mr. Hughes an Associate Justice of
the Supreme Court of the United
States. He resigned as Governor.
and although his resignation oc
curred late in his second term, cha
grin was expressed among his lib
eral supporters that he should have
seen fit to leave the State.
From Oct. 10, 1910 to June 10,
1916. Mr. Hughes remained in the
august seclusion of the Supreme
Court, politically dormant He had
not been involved in the Republican
conflicts of 1912, and thus became
the obvious candidate to oppose
Woodrow Wilson in 1916. As senti
ment for his nomination increased,
he took no cognizance of it nor did
he commit any overt act which would
indicate his intention. If rumor
penetrated the red velvet hangings
of the Supreme Court and reached
the ears of Mr. Hughes, he gave no
sign.
On June 10, 1916 he was nom
inated for President of the United
States on the Republican ticket. The
election day of Nov. 7, 1916, passed.
Late that evening, although the re
turns were not all reported, Mr.
Hughes went to bed in the tri
umphant belief that he had been elec
ted. His secretaries informed poli
ticians who came to congratulate
him that "the Preddent-elect has re
tired." The final returns showed 277 elec
toral votes for Woodrow Wilson and
254 for Charles i. Hughes. For a
few hours Mr. Hughes bad been

ANOTHER VARSITY DANCE
A novel experiment is being attempted by the
Varsity Dance Committee in holding their next party
in the Student Activities building at the Agricultural
campus. This is the first time that the Varsity dances
have been given in a building away from the city
campus.
Unable to book a party in the Coliseum until next
month, the committee was forced to look for another
place that would be suitable for such a party and yet
be in accordance with the policy of holding Varsity
dances in university buildings. The Student Activities
building was thus selected as the location for the dance
to be given March 24.
The one disadvantage to the change is that the
distance will probably keep many away who would
otherwise attend. On the other hand, those who believe
that the Coliseum is too large a building in which to
stage a succesnf ul party will approve of the change.
Whether or not the new location will meet gen
eral approval is a question. At any rate, we welcome
th r"fl nf the committee from their period of in
activity during the formal eeason.
sider the possible practical consequences with a depth
of thought unexcelled by any group of university
students.
If we are admirers of Christ as a perfect man, and j
we talk to them about l.vmg the life of Jesus, they ask
us, "Should I lose my position in an indusvrial com
pany by bearing with the manifestly unchristian tenets
of that business?"
It is for that practical turn of mind that we admire
non-university students. We would like to tell them
that they are attending a university of their own crea
tion; a university superior in many ways to our own.
They learn their courses as we learn ours, and they
base their thoughts on a foundation which is sometimes
more solid than ours.
And although we know that there arc plenty of
young people who are not taking heed of that univer
sity of life, being intent on nothing but a shallow un
progressive sort of "good time," we munt turn our
eyes towards our own university, and we shall see, to
our shame, that many students who take lectures here
are not one bit better, nor are they deriving any ap
preciable benefit from privileges often secured for them
by others. McGill Daily.

To the Editor:
Farking, and more parking, the bane of the car
driving students. Since Mr. Baer has so kindly taken
the parking problem out of the University's hands and
restricted parking to only half the amount it should
be, students around the Nebrpska campus are looking
for sky hooks to jut their cars uu they have even
pone so far as to get tip an hour earlier in the morning
in order to get a place to park their cars.

THE COLLEGE PARASITE
The college parasite is the fly in the ointment;
the hair in the butter; the castor oil in the orange
juice. He is to college as the small brother it to the
amorous boy friend of his sister's. He has as much busi
ness in college as a Jewish clothier in Afaghanstan.
The species is easily recognized by its gaudy col
oring, which, biology texts inform us, is a warning
to students who might come into contact with it.
Because of its slothful nature, the insect is found
ir. large quantities in or around food and drink dis
pensaries, where soft woods furnish material for the
art of carving, and soft drinks are stigma for the artful
spinning of risque yarns. It never is a descendent of
poverty-stricken ancestors, since it would be incapable
of existing on the fruits of its own labors, which are
more scarce than Cairo dancing girls in the Arctic
Circle.
College parasites, when they first drift onto the
campus, think the Pan-Hellenic is an organization
which pans Helen, and when they leave they boast that
they are smart enough to know that, just because the
lights are out, is no reason to believe she's not at home.
The college parasite preys upon fellow students
for everything they can be "done" for; he wastes not
only his own time, but that of everyone with whom
he comes in contact; he holds up classes with silly
prattle In an effort to kid the teacher into believing he
is interested in the work.
He takes everything and leaves nothing in return
A text book, the parasites believe, is something
"A" students put their noses in. Pencil, they think, are
for drawing crude pictures and childish notes. Profes
sors are funny, absent-minded beings, and classes are
for brief respites from strenuous fun hunts, in Jiie
minds of the purblind and moronic subjects of this
discission. They think girls are funny if they choose
to spend an open night with their lessons rather than
waste it in the company of an individual whose appar
ent inebriation is an hmatge.
One or two changes in a verse from the pen of
Omar Khayytm, the prophet, characterizes the college
parasite:
Into this school and why, not knowing,
He comes, like water willy-nilly flowing,
And out again as wind along the waste,
He knows not whither, willy-nilly blowing.
