THE GOOD-WILL AMBASSADOR
For the purpose of adding to the spirit of friendly
competition between the two schools, the Innocents
society has planned a trophy in the shape of a law
bell to be given to the victor of the next Missouri
Nebraska football game. This trophy will then be in
the possession of the winner until tne omer
gains the right to the bell by securing a victory.
The bell was chosen as a trophy because of its
suitability for such an occasion. Mounted upon a base,
with the letters "M" and "N" upon the sidej, the bell
will make an impressive sight. It will undoubtedly be
displayed and rung at the rally the night before the
annual game and will be brought out on the field be
tween the halves of the contest.
Missouri was the school chosen to receive the
trophy because of the close competition in football
between the- two schools in recent years. Although not
considered the "big" game, from the football fan's
Doint of view, as the intersectional contests, it has been
the outstanding game in determining conference hon
ors. And the results of past games has excited suffi
cient ir.terest to substantiate the opinion that in the
future the Missouri game will be one of the most at
tractive contests of any season.
Such a custom is a welcome addition to our meager
list of traditions. For in it will be embodied the spirit
of both schools. Besides being the material sign of vic
tory, it will act as the "Good-Will Ambassador" a
promoter of friendly competition between Missouri
and Nebraska.

THE SING
Fraternity will be pitched against fraternity
Thursday morning when the annual Interfraternity
Sing will be held. Representative? of the various or
ganizations will be present and their musical talents
will be judged at that time.
The Interfraternity Sing is one of the older tra
ditions of the University and every year seems to be
increasing in popularity and interest. It is always in
cluded as a part of the annual Hound-Up week pro
pram. Usually a large number of fraternities enter in
this event so that there is always considerable compe
tition for honors.
As long as the present degree of interest is main
tained in this annual affair its future aa one of the Uni
versity's traditions is assured. The competition will
always be of the sort that will warrant retention.
THOSE INTRA-MURAL "LEFT-OVERS"
Fraternities are being urged to complete their
intra-mural contests at once so that winners of the
various sports and of the Jack Best trophy can be
determined. A statement from the athletic department
indicates that any contests which are late may not count
in the final scoring upon which the award of the ath
letic trophy is based.
With only two more days of school, a week-end
AN EDUCATED SURPLUS
Colleges annually report enrollments greater than
those of previous years. In some cases the proportion
of increase is astonishing. One perusal of the statistics
sent forth by these secondary institutions is enough
to make one wonder what is to become of all the grad
uates and undergraduates after the close of their col
lege careers. Will they all get jobs? Will they get jobs
worth the investment, financial and otherwise, which
has been made in obtaining an education for them?
Many good citizens are worried about the situa
tion to the extent that they believe restrictive measures
against such large college enrollments should be passed.
Otherwise, they declare, college trained people will be
forced to dig ditches and perform other common labor
for a livelihood. There will not be. enough office jobs
or white collar jobs for college graduates unless the
number of graduates is reduced substantially, it is be
lieved. The supposition is, of course, that a college
graduate must fyave a desk of his own in a business
office of some kind in order to be a success,
The question now is, "Is it worth while for a young
man to spend four years or more acquiring learning if
he is destined to spend his yenrs after graduation doing
labor of this kind which people scornfully call 'com
mon'?"
A college graduate may become a filling station
operator or a grocery store clerk or a chauffeur, but the
chances are that he will have gained something from
his college experience which will benefit him in his
work to the extent that his investment will not have
been wasted. Had entrance to a university been denied
to him, he would probably bear a grudge against so
ciety for having been denied the opportunity to de
velop his earning capacity and would consider himself
a failure in life, lacking the key (a college education)
with which he could open the , door to the palace of
fortune. Finding himself the possessor of opportunities
equal to those of his fellows, the college graduate of
this type will realize that the question of getting ahead
in life rests upon himself and not upon society.
The increased enrollment problem should, there
fore, not be a cause for concern. The individuals as
well as society in general are sure to benefit from the
influence of college training to some degree, no matter
how slow a graduate may be in applying himself. Much
of the crime and class strife which beset communities
may be eliminated after all those who prove them
selves intelligent enough to go through high school and
college get started in life having had the same edu
cational opportunities. And in order that as many as
possible may have chances to "see the light," perhaps
it is not advisable to make graduation requirements
stricter than they are at present.
If annually increased enrollments in universities
mean anything at all, they mean that those who are
now-m college must "step lively" in their college work
or they will find themselves falterintr in th a

led to the adoption of some peculiar
customs that they must lay aside if
progress is brought about. Amer
icans are children of a scientific
world, he said, while the Indians have
no such aid to help them in their
struggle for better things."
At the present time, Japan has 74,
000,000 people, and India has 320,
000,000 people. More persons died
of starvation in one year in India
than the total population of Belgium.
One advance made in India has been
the steady abolition of polygamy.
The three great evils of India at
present are polygamy, child-marriage,
and purdah.
Study English
Thirty thousand Indian students
are now studying English at Calcut
ta university, according to Bishop
Fisher. There are now eleven such
institutions in India. The standards
for a bachelor of arts degree are set
at Oxford and Cambridge.
Bishop Fisher concluded by say
ing: "We should think about what
India is becoming, rather than what
she was. We cannot blame mreint
India for what she has inherited."

ivirscn, instructor in art,

present arch, in 1925, at the request
of the School of Fine Arts. In the
olden days, it seems, so many thrones
were needed because of the perennial
attack on them by hungry moths,
enough money was spent to finance a
senatorial campaign for the Y. M C
cabinet. With the invention, dis
