BISHOP F. B. FISHER
GIVES TALK ON INDIA
Custom and Problems of Asiatic
Country Are Presented at
Convocation
"America has the greatest open
mindedness now that she has ever
had," declared Bishop Fred B. Fisher
of Calcutta, India, in his lecture en
titled "Christ and the Races of Men,"
given Monday morning at university
convocation, held at the Temple the
ater. (
Bishop Fisher commented on Kath
erine Mayo's "Mother India" as be
ing unfair to India. He said that
India needs kindly criticism just as
does America to draw each other to
wards peace and understanding rath
er than hatred.
Situation Changed
"India once looked to America as
a land of freedom, opportunity, and
literary accomplishment," he de
clared, "but Mayo's book has tended
to change this condition, and it has
been at least partly responsible for
the legislation by the Indian legisla
ture which permits the levying of a
tariff on American goods. '
The social problems of India are
tremendous, Bishop Fisher stated.
The economic conditions are in an
equally bad position. He pointed
out how the Indians have had to face
problems and conditions that people
in the temperate regions have not
had to consider.
"The climatic conditions of India
are a very large factor in the back
wardness of the people of India,
continued the bishop, "and they have

The

number, and the entire magazine
developed around this idea.
The cover design and a full page
of cartoons, entitled "Reminiscences

cf are clever and to the point a.
are two cartoons by Allan Klein.
A charcoal drawing of a handsome

Next Fall Following
Grid Contest
Winner of the Missouri-Nebraska
football game next fall will be pre
sented by the Innocents society of
the University with a large bronze
bell. From that time on this victory
trophy will be presented each year
to the victorious team of the com
bination. Missouri and Nebraska have been
considered the keenest and closest
competitors and rivals for football
honors in the Missouri Valley in re
cent years. The Innocents society has
started this cusom of offering the
victory bell" to the winner between
these schools to add to the enthus
iasm. In case of a tie the bell will re
main in the possession of the uni
versity that won it the preceding
year, making it a true victory trophy.
Will Be Mounted
The bell will be mounted on a
standard so that it may be carried
out on the field during each Missouri-Nebraska
grid tilt. It may also
be used by the school in whose pos
session it is for rallies. On one side
of the bell a large "M" will stand
out while the opposite side will pre
sent an "N".
The presentation of this new cus
tom by the Innocents society of
1927-28 resembles the tradition of
the "brown jug" between Minnesota
and Wisconsin. The past actions of
Missouri and Nebraska prove them
keen and friendly rivals and wor
thy of the "victory bell" in the opin
ion of the society.
STUDENTS CONTINUE
PARKING DISCUSSION
Howell, Mentzer, Triveli, Express
Disapproval of Present
Parallel System
That parallel parking around the
University is a disadvantage and a
useless change is still the opinion of
many of the students on the campus.
William Mentzer, '29, Cheyenne,
Wyo., said yesterday that the uni
versity area should be regulated to
the best advantage of the students,
He stated, "parking space near the
University is limited and should be
used as advantageously as possible. I
think city officials should give some
consideration to the opinions of the
student body of the school."
