activities.
Students attending, who in
tituled btralght-froni-high-mbool
freshmen and gray-fringed super
intendents, forgot differences In
gt and In Interests, met one an
ther, and -pent an evening of fun
nd recreation. Even when phono
graph music was not loud enough
to hold a dance, the good-humored
crowd did not pout or rebel. Girls
uith piano-pounding experience
volunteered to play; the dance
went on.
Summer school students, the
n Ixer showed, are veiy w illing to
take a part in school affairs -are
almost eager to engage In outside
activities-if only given an oppor
jnity to do so. That this op
portunity has been denied them in
a considerable measure is an un
controverted fact. Nebraska has
lagged in giving its summer stu
dents wll-ba lanced rations.
TT"a State college at Ames has
I h $uick to recognize the i re
port ar . of the university outside
the classroom. Moving pictures
ythe evenings, free plays staged
by university students, depart
mental luncheons and picnics, and
open forum discussions, in addition
to an outstanding group of convo
cation speakers are offered its
student body which is little more
than half the size of Nebraska's.
Nebraska must wake up to its
new task. Scholarship, of course,
is of fundamental importance the
primary purpose of a university.
But students are nut to live on
books alone, essential though they
may be.
Value in school life is to be re
ceived friendships as well as
through lectures. Scholarship is
highest w hen coupled with a
background of recreation that
makes study the more effective.

A STUDENT reports the follow
lug: MA count of 100 girls pas
sing Teachers college reveals these
facts. Only five wore long skirts.
One appeared In beach pajamas.
Ninety-five were garbed In the
'old fashioned' knee-length dresses.
All wore stockings. Only seven
had long balr. Ten wore hats.
Ninety-three had boba of one sort
or another.
All of which proves tothlng, but
shows that good sense la provoked
in summer school coeds by Ne
braska weather. The return of
long skirts for general evening

noon dross has set many tongues
a wagging. Most of the tongues.
Incidentally, aic of masculine gen

be impossible because such gar

At least it is convenient.
But these hazards are only spec

I have "an axe to rrlnd." "a bone

don't know just how to go about
it. It Is so bard to decide whether
to turn loose my grouch at the
beginning of this column, or at the
end. Oh. well. I mirht as well
plunge in.
Why is every one so spineless and
afraid to voice an opinion? If
could say "'twas ever thus," It
wouldn't be so bad. . I would ac
cept the present clam-like attitude
of the summer students as being
the normal state of affairs, but.
when I remember all the student
opinion letters that used to appear
in The Nebraskan, I cannot help
feeling that something is wrong.
The editor tells me that he has
not received a single letter of dis
approval or praise since the sum
