ROBBINS SAYS LAWS
Legal Professor Says His
Students Train Longer,
Should Know More.
MATTER IS UNIMPORTANT
Law students should be smarter
than other students, according to
Trof. C. A. Robbins. of the law
college faculty, because two more
years of study are required of
them than of the students in other
colleges.
He stated that be had nothing to
6ay about such a trivial matter as
the relative smartness of law and
"academy" students and dubbed
the entire matter as a "kindergar
ten'' question. His first statement
to a Nebraska reporter was to the
effect that be did not have such a
good opinion of the "Rag."
Expresses Chagrin.
Professor Robbins expresred
chagrin that a law college student
jbould "open up bis mouth" to
answer ruch a charge as "R. K.
J." made. When the reporter per
sisted In questioning the professor
as to whether law college profess
ors were more Intelligent than

Robbins replied, "If they are, they

He stated that the number of de

Who would've believed It! Jose-o
pbine College U ically tcuilty of
some misdemeanors v. tilt h are of
striking consequence. Prominent
men about the campus in ten dil

Is generally conceded that they
are "dumb" and "sophl.ittcated."
They are strikingly "expensive"
and several state that the girls evi
dence an "appalling lack of ex

In addition to being "wild for

many men at once," and aeera to
be here "only for a good time."
Certain of the men lament the
fact that the femmea "want too
muib attention.' and some say
that the "flippant feminine air"
is mo.it alarming.
But let us uot decry our feminine-
friends to too great an ex
tent, for the men are also able to
find some rather likable aspects
to their natures. "Women make
school worth while," stated one
erstwhile observer. The boys in
general feel that the "wims" are
"high minded," "good sports." and
that they offer a "diversion"
which some are wont to call love.
One ambitious man student says
that the three good points of wo
men are "their faces, figures, and
voices."

"AH in all. are the women
worth the price which we men

but we do need dancing partners,
and they come in bandy once in
a while."
The "long dress fad" was quite
favorably received by the stronger

History Professor Thinks
Girls Must Earn
Grades.
"There is nothing to it," states
Roy E. Cochran, associate pro
fessor of American history at the
University of Nebraska, in refer
ring to Dr. Laird, Colgate pro
fessor's criticism that coeds get
good marks by personal attraction
and bluffing rather than study.
"Students don't see their in
structors enough to really get ac
quainted with them. Every stu
dent should talk over legitimate
things with his professor but us
ually students are afraid of being
accused of working for good
grades and keep clear of their pro
fessor," Professor Cochran said.
"I very often have to send for peo
ple who should know enough to
come in and see me."
Master Approach 0
Professor Cochran laughed when
he read the statement that good
looking girls had a "master ap
proach." "Of course there are a
few that try it," be said, "but they
don't get far, at least not with
me." An average of Professor
Cochran's classes show that he
fa:is more good looking girls than
men.
"My three highest grades for

they weren't fraternity men either,
they aren't good look tag girls,

PRE-MEDIC GROUP
Gives Talk On Theories of
Medicine At Monthly
Banquet.
Dr. John T. Myers, associate
professor of bacteriology at the j
University of Nebraska college of)
medicine, spoke to the Pre-Medlc j
group at their montniy nanquei.
Wednesday evening at the Grand
hotel. Music was provided during
the dinner by Robert Thornburgb.
The lecture outlined in brief the
various theories concerning medi
cine which have been beld since
the time of the Greeks. It was
early believed that disease was an
evil spirit, and to gain beeJth, it
was necessary to placate the evil
spirit.
According to Hippocrates t
body contained four flu'd o.
humours which maintained a bod
ily balance. These fluids were
blood, phlegm, black and yellow
bile. According to this theory a
man might lose his health balance
because be bad too much Mood,
and in such a case a leech would
be used to extract blood.
Another theory that bas grown
up is that of homeopathy and the
allopaths. They believed in giving
a large dose of everything. The
allopaths said "disease is a break
to the vitalistic process."
Bacteriology bas grown out of
germ theory, and is very recent. A
French physician in 1300 discov
ered that by pouring a hot al
coholic liquid on a wound, it healed
more quickly. This was in reality
the discovery of antiseptic sunrery.
Dr. Myers spent the major part
of his address in a discussion of
Louis Pasteur, and the experi
ments carried out by that famous
Frenchman. Dr. Myers showed
that much of modem medicine has
only recently been discovered, and
Indicated that the field of medicine
is an inspiring field of accomplish
ment. LeKoignol Will Read . .

RUSH CARDS WILL BE
READY BY WEEK END
All Are Made Up the Same
In Plain Black and
White Printing.
CONTAIN PLEDGE RULES
Frsternltv rush cards for fsll
ff 1930 will be ready for distri
bution this wee, according to a
statement made by George Broth
ers, the printers. Thursday after
noon. Makeup on each card is the
same, with the exception of fra
ternity and rushing chairmen's
names. In accordance with the In
terfraternity council's ruling.
Cards are plain, in contrast
with those of former years. Cards
for last year were of varied colors,
some with the fraternity crest.
This year they are printed only In
black on white with the University
of Nebraska rushing dates, and
the name of the rush chairman.
Rushing rules are as follows:
"No rushee may have more than
one date a day with one fraternity
for the first two days, which time
shall be set aside for rushing only.
No rushee shall display in any way
a pledge button for the first two
days. On the third day the rushee
may designate his choice by dis
playing bis pin.
Rushee Is Responsible.
The responsibility for keeping
the dates for the first two days
will be centered upon the rushee
whether pledged or unpledged.
Violation of these rules by the
rushee will be punished by the de
nial of the right to pledge for one
semester. Should the rushee care
to break any or all dates on the
third day of rush week, he may do
so without forfeiting bis right to
pledge the first semester.
"Every rushee must send in a
full and complete copy of all of bis
dates, designating the fraternity
with which be bas made the en
gagement, to the office of the In
terfraternity Council room 48, in
University hall. This copy must be
in the office before the time of the
first date.
The cards of this year are cheap
er since they are all the same,
and the changing of type by the
printer for every one or two hun
dred cards is eliminated.
M
; Advises Members of Sigma
Delta Chi to Pursue
Newspaper Task.
"If you like newspaper work
stay with it." was the statement
made bv Prof. E. F. Schramm to
members of Sigma Delta Chi,
journalistic fraternity, at its meet
ing Thursday evening. Professor
Schramm's talk followed a dinner
at the Theta Chi fraternity houe.
Commenting on bis journalistic
experience in college. Professor
Schramm called newspaper work
the most interesting of any he
knew. Despite the fact that re
porters arc often under paid, the
geology professor encouraged
members of Sigma Delta Cbi to
continue their work, provided it
was as much an avocation ax a
vocation to them.
Names Requirements
"There are four requirements
which I consider essential to n
newspaper man," explained Prof
essor Schramm. "He must be
energetic, honest, capable and
fearlese."
Difficulties encountered by re
porters in their attempt to be
mentally fearless were cited by the
speaker. The fact that individual
thinking and writing often causes
the reporter to lose bis Joh was
called to the attention of the
journalists.
Professor Schramm related sev
eral stories concerned with errors
in reporting and proof reading,
which had causes cities to augb
at the newspaper and the persona
concerned in the garbled stories.
Clippings from current newspapers
were used by the speaker in his
informal comnwnt".
After the regular talk, members
I of Sigma Delta Chi beld a brief
business meeting, ii was aecmeu
by the Journalistic fraternity that
in the coming election of officers,
nominations would come from the
floor Instead of from a nominating
committee of senior mtmr.
Plans for the annual Founders day
banquet were also discussed.
Delta Clii Auxiliary
Is Organized Sunday
Delta Cbi Auxiliary with mem
bership composed of mothers and
sisters of members of the frater
nity and wives of the alumni was
formed last 8unday. Nineteen were
present at the meeting. The organ
ization plaju meet the first
Tuasday of each month.
No Terrors To
in the department of chemistry,
has been deaf since the age of 11
years, when he was In the sixth
grade at Rryant mhool. Ills af
fliction followed a seere attack
of scarlet fever.
"Relng deaf and in the univer
sity." Ravls recently stated in a
written interview, published In the
Omaha World-Herald, "hna no es
pecial difficulties providing one
has a definite purpose and Is will
ing to work a little harder than
Is ordinarily required. I've found
the professors on a whole to be
very fair and willing to meet me
half way."
Likes Teachers.
Donald also holds in the h'nhest
regard all teachers whom he nau
in Lincoln high school. He de
clares that he should never have
been able to continue his school
work and come to the university
without their cooperation and
sympathetic understanding of his
new problems.
Enrollment as a freshman at
.cbraska in the fall of 1924 was
a dismaying and discouraging ex
perience for the youth. "To any
student the days of his first reg
istration linger In his nind as a
sort of nightmare," he commented.
"Imagine what it seemed like to
a fellow that couldn't even in
quire which way to go. 1 sat
around the coliseum half a day
before 1 could muster up courage
enough to find out at which end
of the cyclone I should start.
Registration Difficult.
"I finally located Doctor Waite.
an old friend of the family, and
he got me headed in the right
direction. Even then I didn't have
the slightest Idea as to what it was
all about. The details of the rest
of the trip through the aisles are
a hazy impression of flying paper,
rushing students and long tables."
Points that the deaf boy bas
to be on the outlook for are lo
find someone in the classroom
whose notes he can depend upou;
to arrange with the instructor for
that person to sit next to him; to
get advanced assignments and
poises . of. assignments; "'and
above all, not to get rattled when
something out of the ordinary
routine happens as it sometimes
does."
Hadcipad Often Concealed.
Bavis declared that he has gone
through many classes with only
one or two students learning that
be was deaf, and then only be
cause be told them. Sometimes,
however, he has to give himself
away.
"For instance," he remarked, "a
year ago I bad a class in the
