Cornhutlur athletes are fitting no more
than their "ju.it due" in the form of outside
work, retorts Willis B. Lsmton in Morninir
Mail, following yettertUy'a Nebmkan rdi
torial concerning- the flooding of Uucoln'a job
msrket by the athletic department.
Mr. Lamson teems indignant that prospec
tive "P. B. K." students are given position
in university libraries. Haa it occurred to him
that these atudenta are better qualified to hold
tuch jobsf
Further, these opening! are for uppcriU
men not frehnu-ii. Our objeetion ia to the
athletic department's monopolizing of outside
jobs thst would encourage and permit ambi
tious students to attend university. That we
need brains more than brawn in this institu
tion is in assumption that needs no confirma
tion. The editor is accused of making that "age
old slur about dumb athletes." Our only men
tion of the letter-winner's intellect rested in
the ststement that athletes are often below the
average scholastically. We do not agree with
commentators who brand all football players
as muscle-bound dullards. There are many
superior students who have glorified them
selves in athletic encounters.
Since Mr. Lamson feels that he is chal
lenged, we offer another challenge: Can you,
as you suggested, offer statistics to show that
athletes are mentally more alert than the aver
age student!
The athlete's failure to knock down excel
lent grades in his collegiate existence is not
attributed to his lack of grey matter. Over
.mnhuii of athletica in w hat Mr. Lamson has
dubbed "this athletic age" has made it -trcmely
difficult for the athlete to realize that
education is the big thing. Ilence he considers
intellectual exercises subordinate to physical
workouts.
Certain prominent athletes admit that their
football activities overshadow their scholastic
duties. If a man is able to attend the univer
sity faithfully, giving sufficient time to his
classroom assignments, then he is qualified to
give his extra time to competitive athletics.
If his athletio workouts, plus the outside job
with which he has been graciously provided,
leave no time for study then he is wasting his
time in university. We fear that several ath
letes have done and are doing this same thing,
making football the business study the side
line. '
Mr. Lamson misses the point. He has not
changed our contention that the athletic de
partment, in combing the city for outside
work, has forgotten that athletes are not the
only ones who must help themselves. In
placing their flock of athletes, they have shut
out a flock of good students.
Call them prospective P. B. K.'s if you wish.
Call them bookworms, grindR, foul balls they
still have their place in this institution. The
"favored students" to which Mr. Lamson re
fers are not new students.
We object to the favoring of prospective
athletes at the expense of prospective students
in this educational institution.

instructors who place iiihiiv a promining stu

them in school. The good student ami poten

institution from instructors and others, as the,
athlete gets from the athletic department. The
athletic department, as 1 have said before,
knows better than to aeek jobs for athletes, on
the campus itelf. It seem only fair thnt they
should be allowed to comb the city for outside
help.
As usual, the editor in his column saw lit

athlete that is brought to school here is just
investigated in regard to his scholastic stand
ing. Coaches can't afford to carry dumb ath
letes as they never pay out and never have
their grades high enough to play in contests.
If I am not mistaken, Coach Henry F. Sehultc
is the beginner of one of the few state-wide
drives for higher scholarship. Of course he
has limited it to his high school athletes, but
what of that? If anyone is trying to raise
scholarship among athletes, I think the ath
letie department plays the biggest part.
Anyone who says that the average atudent,
or the "P. B. K." prospect, is not taken care
of by certain university authorities, has cer
tainly overlooked many of the various jobs
given to scholars on the campus itself.

Same Old Story.
TO THE EDITOR :
When the Nebraska Alumnus appeared yes
terday, for the first time this fall, it had a
new cover design. It led one to believe it
might have a new type of contents. But after
one glimpse at the pages of text, we decided
it was the same old story.
In each issue of the Alumnus there appour
stories of the life "out in the big cruel world" i very stringent labor law stipulates
of former hior men on the eanmus former In-' that anyone who hires a laborer
noeents or activities men, former "representa
tive" women students. It is significant that
in the first issue this fall, much space was
taken up with tales of graduates holding down
mediocre jobs, merely because they were big
shots in their campus days.
I may be wrong, but I think tho function
of such a paper as the Nebraska Alumnus is
to ive us news of former students who are
obtaining marked recognition in their w-ork EXERCISES FOR
Mias Marjori Ruth Clark, aaao
clat proUssor In home economics
research at Nebraska univaraity,
spent last August atudylng organ

study was dona in Mexico City in
the government libraries.
Mexican labor, though poorly
paid, is atrongly organised, Mis's

may not discharge him except on
payment of three months wages.
wixico city Miss Clark found a
cool and pleasant place in summer
time. She believes it would be

there were better roads leading
into the city. Before visiting Mex

Clark advises, as it is difficult to
get along without it.

successes in their chosen professions. That
there are hundreds of such men and women,
it seems certain. That few of them receive
notice seems equally certain.
It is true that more students remember Art
Blank or John Jones, both big activities men
during their school days, better than they do
Sam Smith, unknown while in college, but now
president of some growing business concern.
But is this any reason why Jones or Blank,
holding down insignificant positions, should be
given space at the expense of Smith, who has
really done something?
We are not sufficiently proud of our univer

TO THE EDITOR :
Approximately fifty students of journalism
migrate from the downtown campus to the ag
eollege campus every Tuesday and Thursday
afternoon at 3 o'clock to take the required
course known as agricultural journalism.
Hardly over 10 regular agricultural students
are in the class.
It seems to me that it would be much more
practical if the administration would arrange
for a section of this course to be held on the
downtown campus to accommodate the stu
dents of journalism who otherwise have to
make this trip in the middle of the afternoon
twice a week.
Of course the argument that the instructor
is regularly at the Agricultural campus may be
used, but would it not be better for one man
to make that trip rather than fifty! 0. M. K.
