Scholastic Averages
Take a Drop.
i TNiVERSITY scholastic averages are lower. A
report issued recently by T. J. Thompson, dean
of student affairs, revealed that grades on the Ne
braska campus were generally lower during the
first semester 1933-34.
- When the factors responsible for this slight re
duction are understood the announcement is neither
surprising, nor cause for alarm.
It Is generally assumed that undergraduate
scholastic averages and scholastic interests were on
the upturn. Indeed, many instances may be shown
which may indicate that ctudenta display greater
active interest in scholastic achievement But the
report, quite obviously runs cross grain to this
tendency.
Several reasons may be offered to explain this
drop. The most logical explanation, however, was
offered by W. C. Harper, Dean of Men. He declared
that worry over financial conditions may be the
major cause for lower grades last semester than the
corresponding term last year.
'Said Dean Harper: "That the seriousness of
vrie times has brought about a more serious attitude
on the part of students is an opinion generally held,
?ut perhaps added worries of affairs at home and
at school, and concern over what the' future holds in
store tend to overbalance this change."
The Dean pointed out, in addition, that added
work and longer hours of outside duties have some
effect on the qaality of the student's work.
Since the depression hit this campus and oth
ers, student pocketbooks have been considerably
deflated. Undergraduates, as a rule, find it impos
sible to enjoy the innumerable extra curricular
events which characterized campuses during the
twenties. But it has brought forth on our campuses
a new type of student Their attitude, as Dean
Harper points out characterized by seriousness.
With this in mind, then, it may be assumed that
they attach more significance to scholarly achieve
ment They have, briefly, rationalized the relation
of scholarship and extra curricular activity in their
academic menu.
- But at the same time there has been an increas
ing tendency for students without money to at
tend the university. Many of them are self sup
porting. Others depend on part time work to get
through a year at college. Figures released by
the student employment bureau bear out these as
sumptions. Tabulations reveal that students seek
ing part time work to help defray living expenses
have Increased greatly in number.
Lower university scholastic records during the
past year may be attributed, and rightfully so, to
this prevailing condition. It is neither alarming nor
wholly unexpected. For students working their way
through the university find their main Interest of
necessity, earning enough to pay for board and
room. 8tudies quite obviously are of secondary in
terest It seems apparent, then, that the depression has
left a distinct sobering influence on student life.
Students, too, are attaching more significance to
scholarship. But the flattening of student pocket
books has more than offset this commendable ten
dency. Student energy, it seems, is being directed
into. the channel of earning at least a decent livelihood.
Training Time
Has Arrived.
There has been a substantial increase this year
In the number oi men registered in physical educa
tion courses over the enrollment of last season. More
non-registrants are also using the coliseum plant
for exercise than previously. The total increase has
been about 300. These were statements recently
made by Dr. R. G. Clapp, veteran professor of men's
physical education, and head of men's gymnasium.
Z Such an increase in the interest manifested
by men in their own physical well-being is a good
Indication of development of a sense of balanced
Hying among students of the university. The devel
opment Of this sense may be attributed to the fact
hat students since the advent of the depression, are
realising that they must be fit both mentally and
physically in order to stand the strain of competi
tion which they will encounter after graduation.
- For many years the university administration
and some faculty members have been attempting
to impi-ess the fact on student that they can do
their best mental work only whtn they are physic
ally fit Such stitements by school officials hive
appeared most twquently during final examination
f erioda. Altho urging of this sort baa no astounding
Instantaneous effect, there is resulting a gradual
..nr in th ria-ht direction. This is proven by
the present Increase in the number of men taking
advantage of the coliseum facilities.
Rwontl at Its national conclave the National
Education Association adopted among the seven
objectives of education which It drew up one stating
the belief that a man must possess "a sound mind
in a strong and healthy body."
Dr. Walter T. Marvin, dean of the college of
arts and sciences at Rutgers university, has out
lined a questionnaire which the student should apply
to himself. Among the questions listed Is one ask
ing "Have I health and character T Have I
a strong and healthy body, and can I stand the
strain of long sustained work ?"
Too often, many modern educators are con
stantly pointing out, a student comes to college,
studies long and carefully, works part time, sits up
till all hours of the night, becomes a walking ency
clopedia, only to graduate and find himself unfit to
meet strains of daily toll and routine.
Now is the time of year for making certain of
one's physical fitness. Final examinations aren't
far off about three weeks. Cram sessions aren't
as profitable as they might be if the crammer were
in some kind of good physical shape. Any doctor
will testify to that. It also takes some time to work
oneself into good trim. Physical education instruc
tors, coaches, and trainers affirm this assertion.
Contemporary Comment
Science Probes the
Secret of Life.
Down thruough the centuries man has toiled
and thought and died, great civilizations have arisen
and decayed, towers and cities have flaunted the
handiwork of man in the face of nature, and man
himself has searched the depths of the universe with
questioning eyes, but through it all a mocking spec
tre has stalked before him the mystery of man
himself, who he is and what he stands for in the
great scheme of things. Like Omar, doctor and
saint, ditch-digger and hurdy-gurdy man and all
the rest have "heard great argument about it, and
evermore came out by the same door where in they
went"
Today, out in a little luboralory on the campus
of the University of California, Dr. Robert Cornish
stands beside the cot of a mongrel dog snatched
back from the hands of .death and challenges the
mystery of the ages. A heart once stilled is made
to beat again, life struggles dimly in an in-between
world of twitching muscles and basic instinct, un
seeing eyes grope for light and a mind dulled with
the touch of oblivion feels the slow surge of renas
cent understanding. And science, watching with
half-believing eyes, holding in its hands the incredi
ble elixer of the unknown, looks on and trembles
with unutterable surmise.
The world stands by and wonders. We ask our
selves, perhaps, what it means. There is no answer,
beyond the simple statement that so far at least
we have come since Pontius Pilate in our search for
truth. It ft too much to jrasp all at once, in an
instant Dare we say that the captaincy of men's
souls, from being the football of hyperbole and
philosophic yearning, has come to lie within the
realm of simple reality? We need to think about It.
For all we know, the mind of man may have crossed
the last frontier, and imagination and reality may
be no farther apart than the cells of our bodies or
the uncertain rising of the setting sun. Minnesota

Products of
The Depression.
In a few weeks some five hundred graduates
are stepping into what they hope is a receptive
world, bearing the degrees of this University, and
equipped to make their way in the various occupa
tions which they are entering.
It is worthy of comment that they have passed
through a singularly Interesting time of study.
When they entered the University in the fall of
1930, the world was on the point of reaching the
abysmal depths of depression. Throughout their
college career they have continued through the
depths of depression, hampered a little by its ef
fects, no doubt at the same time learning a great
lesson.
Those who have made a special study of the
reasons and effects of present day conditions, have
been afforded a magnificent experiment Those
who have not been directly connected with such
studies, have nevertheless been able to observe what
has been going on around them.
This great object lesson, learned In a time
which is most adaptable for the assimilation of such
a lesson, should not be forgotten. The students of
this time, the "Depression Babies," have the know
ledge at their disposal to qualify their being true
citizens of this and any other country. With the
qualification they have gained behind them, they
should look to the future with the determination
that they can be the ones to protest their common
Interests, with those of their country.
Human nature and zeal Is always the same, but
these graduates have a wealth of Instruction and
experience to temper those all too prevalent failings
which can wreck our safety and progress. Let us,
in wishing them all the success and happiness that
Is their due, remind them of their great obligations
to their fellow creatures, their country, and the
world. McGill Daily. ,

the last light out, then there will be transportation
there for every student, and Ag college students will
be off for their traditional midnight rally.
If folks along some of Lincoln's sleepy streets
hear a blaring band that disturbs their slumbers,
let them not be impatient. It won't last long. It is
only students out for some fun and it is only to re
mind them that Saturday is Farmers' Fair.
If the dancers at the park find their place
usurped for a moment by an overall and gingham
clad but thoroughly polite and decent gang of
Ag college folks, let them not be aroused to ire.
It is only for a moment and then the gang will be
off on their noisy way.
If landladies and mothers have trouble getting
a lot of boys and girls up in time for breakfast
Thursday morning, let them not become disgruntled.
There are no classes that day. And Wednesday night
they were having some fun. After all do we come
to college to enjoy ourselves even hilariously some
times or do we come to college to drive tent stake
or hammer out lousy copy?
There is a verse somewhere about "youth being
the time to run a mile to see a fire" and do a num
ber of other foolish things that I don't remember.
Well, the point of this discourse is that Wednes
day night after dress rehearsal comes the midnight
rally. Everyone who goes on that party is bound
to have some fun. It follows therefore, that since
naarlv evervone is looking: for ome fun, nearly
everyone will go.
TRAMP, TRAMP, TRAMP.
Not long now until Military compet And Ag
college has a new tradition to- maintain. That tra
dition" la to win .first among the companies, or
among the platoons, or both.
There was a time in the past from about five
years ago on back how far I don't know when the
Headquarters company men from Ag college didn't
have to live up to any such tradition. They used
to be first on the wrong end of the line. If not that
bad, then at least they used to show the other com
panies a tight race for thirteenth or fourteenth
place.
But now that sort of thing is all over. And
strangely enough It disappeared at Just about the
time Major John W. Crissy and Sergeant W. L.
Richardson got on the job. The Ag company started
winning about then and baa kept winning ever since.
What are their chances for this year? So far
as Major Crissy is concerned, they are good. These
boys can win that compet if they will "put out," he
said. It's all up to them. And the fact of the case,
according to Major Crissy and Sergeant Richardson
and Cadet Captain Roland M. Anderson, indicate
the company does "put out" in a way that Is going
to spell hard luck for many other company when the
day Of compet arrives.
