OF STUDENT SUPPORT
7
Business, Manager Declares
That Annual Receives
Poor, Backing.
"Student support of the Corn
husker la certainly lacking at the
University of Nebraska," declared
George Kennedy, business man
ager of the university year book,
Mnnrtnv while commenting: on the
approaching sales campaign. The
campaign win commence ouuunj .
October 27, and continue through
Saturday, November 2.
"Each year there are at least
twenty Individuals and several or-o-aniMttnns
enrolled In the selling
campaign. And how many an
nuals do thev sell 7 ivo inouj&na
out of a possible 7.000 in the stu
dent body."
Poor Showing.
Tii u a verv toor showine in
comparison to other schools, ac
cording to Kennedy. He stated
tht something waa wrong some
where when only 2.000. 30 percent
of the university s enrollment, will
buy their alma mater s annuao.
"It seems to me that the stu
dent bodv at Nebraska does not
realize the Importance of the
Cornhusker. Surely the price can
be no factor in their not buying.
Four dollars and a half is very
reasonable for such a book.
"Students at Harvard, Yale and
other schools of equal fame regard
their year book aa something
binr to be boue-ht.
cherished and preserved as an
everlasting memory oi . coiwgc
years. And year books at these in
stitutions are no better in any way
than the Cornhusker."
'We Are Lazy!'
Kennedy stated that the only
reason it didn't exist, in his opin
ion was a "laziness." a "don t
care," indifferent atltude, preva
lent among university students.
This feeling" is certainly not typical
of the true Nebraska spirit which
is supposed to pervade this insti
tution, he stated.
The Cornhusker will be sold for
$4 50. a reduction of fifty cents on
the regular price. lh m"

First Play Crude.
"The singing of religious songs
at Easter time waa discontinued
because of their lack of interest,
stated Paul M. Bruun. an advance
representative of Mr. Fassnacbt,
the Christus portrayer of the play,
who ta in Lincoln to supervise the
preliminary work for the presenta
tion of the drama. The first
presentations of the play were
very crude but step by step
through the ages the colossal pro
duction such as will be presented

Two different methods for tne
presentation were provided for. A
processional enactment of the
drama was given on the outside of
the cathedral, from street to
street, and an nfo,dlnff0fLth'
story took place on a platform in
front of the cathedral.
The presentation of the drama
was at first in the hands of the
church but later the control was
transferred to the town council,

HAROLD ZIPP TALKS
Glider Club and Engineer's
Society Hoid Meeting
On Aeronautics.
Harold Zipp. a former student of
the college of engineering, who
now is a chief engineer and de
signer of the Knoll Aircraft cor
poration, talked at the joint meet
ing of the Glider club and the
American Society of Mechanical
Engineers Thursday on "The De
signing and Testing of Airplanes."
Mr. Zipp told of his experiences
and explained a few of the prob
lems which confront the airplane
designer. Before a ship can be
built, the plans must be submit
ted to the government authorities
and passed, and after the first
plane is built, it must pass govern
ment flight tests before more
planes may be manufactured or
sold.
Construction Problems.
The designer must determine the
wing area, the weight and the size
of the engine. He must deter
mine where the center of gravity
lies in order to locate the correct
position for the wings. Should he
fail In any of these calculations,
the plane would not be at all stable
In the air.
Every member of the fusilage is
designed to stand the maximum
stress applied to that part plus a
margin of safety. Static ' tests
with sand bags are used to test
the strength of various parts.
A well dtaigned' and constructed
plane Is so well balanced and has
all forces In such equilibrium that
the plane will right itself in the
air.
5,000 Seals Left for
Pitt-Nebraska Game
