The coming Kansas Aggie game brings to mind the rally of two years ago and the dis cussion which followed. That affair was more, of a riot than a rally. Those -who took part exceeded the bounds of normal school spirit and resorted to actual destruction of property and threats of violence. Spirit was at its height at that time. The situation was similar to the one that now con fronts the Cornhuskers. A championship was at stake, and what loyal Cornhusker would let a championship pass by without first exerting every possible effort to capture it! In the ef fort to arruse school spirit, little rallies were being held all over the campus thruout the week, in classes, in cafes, and in front of So cial Science hall. The spirit was brewing all week and on Friday morning broke loose all at once. Classes were entered, doors were broken down, and fictitious names were tossed back and forth between those who would break up classes and those who desired to continue wilh the lectures. A goad deal of discussion resulted. from, this rally and it was rumored about that-the end of rallies was in sight. But fortunately this good old tradition still remains on the campus, altho somewhat modified. For the past two years no violent outburst of school spirit has occurred, much to the dismay of some of the college Joes; The same situation that appeared two years ago before the K-Aggie game, again makes its appearance, and the spirit which has been so well kept under control for two years is again brewing. So at this time it is well to remind the student body that violent displays of so called spirit, become barbarious and are not at all necessary in this age of alleged civiliza tion. The leaders of the pep organizations, altho they are expending much effort to rouse a little pep for the coming game, sincerely hope that nothing like the display of two years ago will be attempted. A visitor on the campus wants to know when the university is going to plant the corn on that new field east of Twelfth street. Another Anniversary. Today, the thirteenth anniversary of the Ar mistice, the university will collaborate with the city of Lincoln and the whole nation in celebrating and giving thanks for thirteen years of peace. Classes will be excused this afternoon and the R. O. T. C. unit will take part in the parade thru the business section. To the student who gets excused from classes it perhaps means a half day off, unless he is one of the unfortunates who has to take part in the parade. But the university does not dismiss classes because it thinks the student needs a rest, it does so because the whole na tion is oberving the anniverary of the armis tice. There is something to be celebrated on this day, and the fact should be impressed on the minds of the people what that something is. The close of the war is in itself an event of importance. But far greater.'is the. importance of keeping the ivar closed. One element uses this day for advancing its proposition that peace is possible only thru adequate military and naval defense. Another clement uses this occasion as a fitting time for shouting disarma ment as the best method of maintaing peace. Regardless of who is right, everyone should keep in mind that war is not desirable, and on this day especially the public should be remind ed f the horrors, the suffering, and the finan cial burdens that the last war imposed upon the whole world. The public should be re minded how glad the world was when the ar mistice was signed, and it should be reminder that whatever benefits resulted from the war, could have been obtained just as well without the war, for when it was over, the controversy was still unsettled. The battle was continued by a group of overworked diplomats. Weather forecast for the Manhattan migra tion: Dry. Hail the Reign Of Demogorgons! The Demogorgons have descended upon the campus again in all their aggravating, over powering, disgusting, thwarting, agitating, sneering, leering complacency of manner. Mid semester examinations have arrived I Upon the campus their influence is marked by the depth of furrows in harrassed brows; by the blear in eyes heavy with sleep. In the classroom the magic wand of demogorgondora htl east its spell upon the student with the craning neck or bulging eyes; upon him whose fingers anxiously run thru his hair. Deliberately malicious in their caprices, demogorgons hover around the heads of even those who have no immediate engagements with them. Perhaps the most maddening char acteristic of their behavior is their complacent self-assurance. Past experiences have demon strated the inevitability of the escape of all the victims marked by the demogorgons for slaughter. Loudly and wickedly their voices resound in the ears or students on probnlion, chanting only one strain, "You'll go home, you 11 go home! Meanwhile, let us shift our scenes to the re spective study sanctums of many of these pro bationers. Halls of fraternity and sorority houses abound in commotion and noise. Agi tated students attempt to imbibe the funda mentals of biometry in between rendition by the barroom quartette. Downstairs a radio screeches; from the card room emanate en thused or infuriated ravings; the telephone buzzes and half a hundred voices "Fresh, on that phone!" Enter two upperclassemen "Fresh, go down and get mc some smokes!" Why is it impossible for an atmosphere of study to reign within the Avails of fraternity and sorority houses after certain stipulated hours at night? If a better system of main taining such a plan were effected, these demogorgons in the form of midsemester ex aminations upon which is decided the perma nence of some students' residence within the city and enrollment in the university would lose some of their horrible aspects; midsemes ter examinations would, if students were ade quately prepared for them, be an advantage to the student as well as the professor in esti mating at least generally the extent of the student's knowledge in the subject at the half way mark. Wo read about a two-headed goat that over ate. Think what, an advantage the goat would have at a fraternity house. After reading what Mr. Fish'h has to say, we wonder if the journalists should borrow the law college's brown derby for a week. News editors' favorite pastime lamenting all over the bulletin boards of the Daily Ne braskan office. And they cry for sympathy! Away with this fear of demogorgons! Face the enemy! And to this end, quiet please. MORNING MAIL What Do You Think? TO THE EDITOR: While the leaders of the movement to reduce orchestra costs for downtown parties are con gratulating themselves on the success of their move, some one suggests that the band niacs tros could and would have come down even more on their -quota! ions, if the demand had been made. There are probably some students who feel that since local orchestras ami hotels have been so magnanimous in their attitude on this ques tion, that we oac them something for their generosity. Nothing of the sort! L'ntil this year, it was a common practice for o-chestras to" charge $125 and $135 for down town parties and think npthingjof.it. And they did that when the union wage for musi cians is $6 per man. For a twelve-piece or chestra that would amount to approximately $75, including a booking charge. The same logic applies to the hotels. They get a great deal of business from university students, either directly or indirectly. Parents visiting their student sons or daughters stay at hotels. Fraternities and sororities give their fall, spring, and formal parties at the two ho tels. Jt is quite evident that we don't owe them much. So when Lincoln orchestras make what is generally considered an unprecedented price figure of $100, it makes this writer wonder why they haven't come through with a similar proposition long before.

(Ask pop what that is.) Really, (to use a good word which is lo corning very trite, perhaps thru over-use in fraternity and sorority lounge rooms) the Daily Nebraskan must have more regard for accuracy. Only today we read it is our last chance to buy our 1923 Cornhiisuh for $4.50. (They'll slay us anyway, what with deadlines and more deadlines!) Reading further, or frontward, we find that classes are excused Tuesday noon for "Armistice Event." How time flies, Berthy, how time flies they've moved November 11th up a day! However, that's excusenblc, for "Tomorrow" wouldn't fit in the headline. But the truly unforgivc able error is to be discovered on page the fourth, column four. It is there that a notice for Student Council pictures appears and that notice is signed, "E. J. Faulkner, Cap tain." Journalist, Councilman, Politician, De bater, B. M. nil these in high degree is Mr. Faulkner. But Captain Mr. Rolland A. White whether of the Vir ginia or ilassachusetts Whites we know not writes from Iowa regarding our heresy in singing the Iowa Corn Song for the Hockizc last Payday. Apologies, .Mr. White, profuse and effulgent, for you say that you may be a little "touchy" about your school song. May haps the good old Iowa Corn Song is a bit too good and old and common to represent the Black and Cold. Yet, taken the world over, the Corn Song is the hailing hymn of Iowans; and, we might venture, as effective, if not ho effete, as "Iowa Fights." (And it's worlds truer!) Hearken, Lawyers! Not without reward has been your struggle for College Representation in the choosing of Nebraska's Sweetheart (al leged). The same desire for equality, for the franchise, that wrested the Great Charter from a tyrant bla'g'ard, is triumping! For peering in at Hauck s photo display on Hth today 1 saw envisaged on tinted cardboard the image of a lovely maiden. And beneath the picture approach and read, for one may read, the lay "Kosmet ivlub Sweetheart." FISH 'II. SOCIETY VI1NG PROFESSOR Since Nebraska's student body is planning to attend the football game at Manhattan this week end there are few parties scheduled.

University of Arizona While women students thruout the other colleges and universities of the country were debating the advisa bility of offering to pay their shares in the cost of dates with college men, the University of Ari zona males organized a Bachelor's club, the purpose of which is to demand that "co-eds go dutch on all datiss." The university was surprised to find that a majority of the women were behind the men in their efforts. Colgate University Professor Laird has found that pajamas ruin sleep and that the old fashioned nightshirt is the proper attire for the college student who wants to sleep well. We might remark that a nightshirt would not look so very petite in an 8.30 class. , University of Tennessee This is the best rushing joke of the inter collegiate world, so far foil year.

Educator, Talks at University Club. WILL SPEAK THURSDAY Troof by results of experiment that small university classes are not necessarily more conducive to student achievement than large classes was cited by Dean M. E. Haggerty of the college of educa tion, University of Minnesota, when he addressed faculty mem bers of the University of Nebraska following a banquet at the Univer sity club Tuesday evening. Dean Haggerty referred thruout his talk to numerous experiments performed at the University of Minnesota, all of which sought the facts likely to be useful in the im provement of present day teaching methods. He will remain in the city for the next two days, and will give three more talks, one at So cial Science auditorium on the uni versity campus at 7:30 p. m. Wed nesday. The experiments relative to stu dent achievement in large and small classes covered a large field of college subjects. The results of the survey, as shown by Dr. Hag gerty, were that in forty-six ex periments, or 78 percent of the total, the relative student achieve ment was greater in large classes than in small ones. "This survey," Dr. Haggerty de clared, "may force a considerable revision in our previous idea that small classes are far more effec tive than larger ones. It does not necessarily mean, however, that large classes are more to be de sired, because there may have been considerable difference in teaching methods employed. How ever, the scale seems to tip in favor of the larger class." Dr. Haggerty m his talk alsj criticized present methods on tne score that they failed to take cog nizance of the fact that forgetting is as natural a process as remem bering. He quoted figures to show that in a period of from three to nine months, students forgot from 43 to 47 8-10 percent of the facta they had learned In a college course. These figures, he said, were arrived at when circumstances were most favorable for students remembering what they had learned. Dr. Haggerty declared that it is the duty ot the teacher to recog nize this fact, and make allow ances. "These things which are im portant must be repeated over and over again," he declared. "The work of the class room must sup port the work of the laboratory, and vice versa." He also went into a discussion of the effectiveness of laboratory teachings as compared to classroom teachings in scientific courses, showing that three hours of laboratory work and two hours of class work were slightly more than equivalent to five hours of laboratory work. Dr. Haggerty was introduced by Chancellor Burnett. More than 160 persons attended the banquet. His schedule for the next three days calls for addresses at 11 o'clock Thursday morning and 4 o'clock Thursday afternoon, the former to be given to university students at the Temple theater, in addition to the talk Wednesday night.- can be taken, the one going thru f Irving being the best improved. In commenting on the excursion, j Edwin B'aulUner, council president, said: "Tho council i3 expecting this , migration to be one of the largest which It has ever sponsored. Stu dent interest in the game is In- tense, because of the chance which Nebraska has of winning the Big Six title. With the Kansas Aggies rated as Nebraska's stlffest oppo nents of the conference every par ticle of student enthusiasm and support will be needed by tho i team." SOCIAL CALENDAR Friday.

Two special Pullman cars are reserved for the team and will also be on the spe cial returning to Lincoln Saturday night. A number of students have in quired at the Nebraskan office as to the possibility of changing the schedule for the return trip of the special train. The train leaves Lincoln at 7 a. m.
