THE SYDNEY-NEBRASKA DEBATE
Intersectlonal contests are no longer novel and
unusual occurrences. Nebraska has played two such
football games so far this year, and will take the
field for a third tomorrow afternoon at West Point.
International debate la not something new, but It is
still somewhat unusual.
Tuesday evening teams from the University of
Sydney, Australia, and the University of Nebraska
will meet for a debate on the parliamentary and
presidential forms of government. While the rjues
tlou Itself Is of importance, and the arguments pre
sented by both fjldco will be Immensely educntlnnnl:
the debate Tuesday evening will also be a splendid
opportunity for students to see the difference In
presentation of teams from opposite sides of the
earth.
Interest in debate has falleu off for the past
several years on the Nebraska campus. It was not
until the Cambridge squad came here last year that
the student body took an active interest in the work
of the Nebraska team. The Cambridge-Nebraska
debate last year was presented to the largest audi
ence to attend an Intercollegiate debate at Nebraska
In several years.
Prof. H. A. White, coach of the Nebraska debate
squad, has been working for several weeks with the
men who will take the stand against the Sydney
debaters next week. Students would do well to
study TueBday afternoon and attend the debate that
evening, In support of their team.
NO CHEERS, NO GREETING
"Huskers Leave for Big Adventure in Army's
Fortress," "Huge Send-Off Kally Starts Team to
Army," "Nebraska Will Be Last Game for Army
Team." These are the headlines that are Indicative
of the student mind today, tomorrow, and for a week
to come. All eyes are focused on the Army-Nebraska
clash In New York, and there simply isn't
an argument against having all eyes turned to this
consequential game of the season's grid card.
While nearly three thousand Nebraska students
were giving a rousing send-off to the Nebraska tram,
coaches, and band, Wednesday afternoon at the
Burlington station, while bands were blaring and
brief football speeches were being given, Mlsouri
Day, at the American Royal Stock show In Kansas
City, was being celebrated with glamor that even
surpassed that of the send-off tendered the Coru
buskers. A team or five girls from the College of Agri
culture of the University of Nebraska, were tho
most highly praised attendants at the American
Royal show in Kansas City yesterday. Scoring 2,503
points out of a possible 3,000, that team swept the
field In the meats Identification and Judging contest,
finishing far in the lead of Kansas State Agricultural
college and Oklahoma A. & M. college, second and
third place winners.
There was no ovation paid this team when the
members left Lincoln, and there will be no great
throng to greet them upon return, yet the signifi
cance of their feat must not be dwarfed because
they do not receive such demonstrations. Nebraska
is preeminently an agricultural state, and proud of
it. Young women who can take first at the Amer
ican Royal Stock show, are to be commended. Their
efforts are equal to any In keeping the state in
the limelight of favorable recognition.
THE AWGWAN SCORES
Word was received by The Dally Nebraskan
Wednesday that the Awgwan, sponsored by the
Nebraska chapter of Sigma Delta Chi, was com
mended as the best humor magazine presented to
the publications officer of Sigma Delta Chi, national
professional Journalistic fraternity, which held its
national convention this week in Evanston, III.
A few years ago the Awgwan underwent a com-,
plete change. In several previous years, the univer
sity humorous publication received much unfavorable
comment on the type of material published. An
effort was made to correct that fault, and the same
effort la being continued this year.
The Awgwan Is a University publication, con
taining University humor, written by University
students. Every individual In the school should feel
proud that the Awgwan has received this commend
ation, and especially because it has not been for
many years that the magazine has been published
under its new policy.
LESSONS ON SECURITIES
Financial management presents to the university
student the greatest problem to solve before he Is
cast out Into the world with a degree In hand and
an empty pocket.
"Joe College" presents himself on the campus
dally and almost dally he Is attired' in a new fang
dangle, collegiate-appearing garment or accessory.
Some faddish bit of clothing such as the crush hat,
trench coat, and what-not, Is invented and introduced
by clothiers catering to the college boys to hook all
ready-cash.
Aiming their blow a at this group of young
People, many businesses realize splendid profits be
cause the college gtudent falls for many foolish
knick-knacks. The student does not realize the value
ot the dollt- He does not economically distribute
the monthly allowance but flourishes and then
squanders until the next check arrives.
' Entering Into the world, laden with the reward
'Jr four years of diligent labor, "Joe College" Is
transformed to common "Joe" and becomes one of
the many millions str . lng for material, mental and
cultural gain, but with eyes necessarily set on the
"almighty dollar."
Several years later Joe has started a bank ac
count. If he Is lucky, and as this account Increases
the desire to let money earn money is stimulated
and oftlraes proves fatal through faulty Investment.
One of the greatest things the students of
higher educational Institutions could acquire In the
four years Is training on financial management In
cluding the handling of surplus Income.
In every second of every business day $1,000 Is
Invested by the American public in new offerings
of securities. And for each American family the
national income averages more than 2,000. As
America has grown wealthier her citizens have an
nually accumulated a surplus Income. And if the
college graduate has not learned to Invest this sur
plus, before he gets It, more efficiently than the
non-graduatH, the college has fallen down In one
of the greatest tasks confronting It.
THE RAGGER: Judging from all the opinions,
any co-ed who can control a dozen votes In a bloc
ought to be elected the Nebraska Sweetheart.
And about today Nebraskans on the npeclal train
will find out that the Hudson river Is nothing like
the Platte.
Tactfully enough, Military Ball tickets are put
on sale before house bills are Issued.
Our definition of an exceptional student Is one
who studies during the game tomorrow afternoon.
To get down to bed rock, courses In the geology
department of the University are undoubtedly the
hardest.
The trouble with the public speaking courses is
that they teach how but not what.
A STUDENT LOOKS
AT PUBLIC AFFAIRS
By David Fellman
The most controversial issue In
British politics today, and one of
the most absorbing in the field of
International affairs generally. Is
the so-called Anglo-French military
and naval pact.
The trouble seems to have Its
foundation In the failure of France,
Great Britain, and the United
States, the leading powers of the
world, to agree upon some basis for
disarmament, especially of naval
forces. The United States Insists
that If there Is to be any plan of
disarmament. It is to provide for a
general limitation on total tonnage.
Our contention Is tlyit each country
should agree to limit Its naval con
struction to a certain tonnage fig
ure, but that within that figure each
nation should be free to construct
any type of ships Bhe wants to.
The French and British position
has been that there should be naval
limitation by classes of vessels. It
Is their contention that the great
powers must agree upon the limi
tation of certain types of ships,
rather than upon the total tonnage.
Obviously, each country is seeking
an arrangement that will be most
advantageous to Itself.
"Rules Governing Thoroughbred Staff Compiled
By Combined Committees" reads an exchange head
line. Now for a better brand ot journalism.
OTHER STUDENTS SAY
FAIR PLAY
Turn about Is fair play. The University expects
consideration from the city of Lincoln. And Lincoln
has a right to expect consideration from the students
of the University.
These same students have clamored for traffic
protection from the city, so signal lights were In
stalled, and heavy traffic has been excluded from
R street. But now that protection is granted, stu
dents take It for granted that they are privileged
characters, that they can call upon the law when
someone else violates It, but when their own pleas
ure Is affected, laws can be disregarded.
Contempt for signal lights is the charge ad
vanced by numerous citizens against students of the
University. This contempt Is particularly evident
at Twelfth and U streets, but is also seen at any
other corner. Townspeople are often heard to re
mark, when students cross the street against the
lights; "Sure! They go to the University. They
think they can do what they please. Somebody
ought to run over a couple of them and maybe
they'd have a little respect for the law."
The welfare of the University is largely de
pendent on the opinion of people of the state. And
while in some cases this opinion of students is
merely prejudice, in this one Instance it is based
on facts.
The University needs the friendship of the citi
zens of Lincoln, and Lincoln has furnished traffic
protection about the campus. Students should apply
the old saying that "ODe good turn deserves
another." At that, they would merely obey the laws
which they asked for. K. L.
Since these countries have been
unable to agree, the French and
British foreign offices recently en
tered Into some sort of a pact or
agreement, wherein an understand
ing seems to have been reached.
While the exact terms of the pact
have been kept secret, it seems
that the substance of the agreement
Is that the countries have agreed
that any future naval limitation
must be by classes. They haven't
asreed upon any actual limitation,
but have simply united to make
their position stronger, and to give
them greater bargaining power.
This pact has caused a tremen
dous amount of controversy in
Europe, and has aroused the resent
ment of the United States. It Is
very probable tiiat President Cool
idge's lecture to Europe on Armis
tice day was an expression of our
reaction to the now notorious pact
of our former allies.
States. "What we want to be sure
of Is that the government has In
structed the admiralty that, in
drawing up the program of British
naval requirements It should not
take the United States fleet luto
account. Previous British govern
ments havo never done that
The principle on which the Cana
dian boundary Is secure is the only
method on which Anglo-American
security can be maintained. . . .The
military as well as the naval part
of the British and French bargain
must be declared null and void."
The next day, His Majesty,
George V, delivered the speech
from the throne, written of course
by Prime Minister Stanley Bald
win, formally opening the present
session of parliament. This speech
has Its counterpart in American
government in the president's mes
sage to congress. While the king
asserted (hat England's "relations
with the foreign powers continue
to bo friendly," not a word was
said about the highly-explosive
pact, much to the disappointment
of the expectant commoners.
When the commons returned to
their chamber, to discuss the king's
speech, James Ramsay MacDonald,
labor leader, opened up the attack.
"The pact Is not an agreement to
limit armaments. It Is an agree
ment not to limit armaments. It
aaerl fired the most elementary con
siderations of Britain's safety."
The eovernment's position was
explained on the following day by
Acting Foreign Secretary uaron
Cushendon. "Britain is now in ex
actly the same position as If she
hurl not made" the uact. "We are
under no obligations and could If
we liked alter our attitude uui
Britain Is not likely to do this be
cause It would be absolutely futile."

after a vacation In Canada and

his hands when he returns.
However the present issue will
wind up. It is clear that England
and France are In dire need of
some sort of limitation of military
preparation. They are both heavily
in debt, and their inhabitants are
taxod Just about to the limit. Ne
cessity wll lundoubtedly prove to
bo a greater spur to disarmament
than altruism.

FRATERNITY SCHOLARSHIP
Scholarship will again be brought to the atten
tion of fraternities when the Scholarship Cup Is
awarded at the Commerce Auditorium Monday
evening.
Fraternities are apt to forget about the Impor
tance of grades in the mad scurry to fill their house
with "good" boys. But when the announcement Is
made and each fraternity Is told its point average
for the year and compared to other groups, the
iruth is out.
As a rule fraternities attempt to do their part
In raising the scholastic standing of their members.
However there are always a few of the members
who do not make the grade, and then blame the
fraternity for their standing.
Many students have flunked out of school be
cause they had outside Interests which monopolized
their time, keeping them from studying. But, Invar
iably, these students will blame their failures on
the fraternity saying there was too much disturb
ance, and they could nevpr study. Investigation
usually shows that those students never tried to
study.
This attitude gives the outsider the wrong im
pression of the fraternity. They are regarded as
places to have a good time, where no one ever
studies, etc.
In reality a fraternity or sorority does feel self
conscious about Its scholastic standing, especially if
it should be exceptionally low. They attempt to
raise it from year to year. Those who drag the
standing down. are encouraged to work for better
grades.
After Monday night campus organizations will
know their rating and can begin the long tedious
task of improving grades while there Is Btill time
this quarter.

BETTER SCHOOL8 -
Increased expenditure on public education In
the United States seems to be having effect.
Figures just- released by the Department of the
Interior show that the percentage of pupils in pub
lic schools is steadily rising.
At present, 92 percent of the elementary school
pupils are in public schools, while a generation ago
the percentage was only 89. Similarly, 91 percent
of the secondary school puplU are In publ'c schools;
a generation ago the percentage was only 60. To
top it off, it is shown that 36 percent of college
students are now studying In Institutions supported
by public funds, whereas the percentage was only
14 In 1890.
These figures are significant. People are de
manding greater facilities for education, and are
willing to be taxed to get them. The man who
wants his son to have the best education possible
no longer has to send him to a privately endowed
school.
