The original plana called for registration on only one day Wednesday. We thought the assignment committee waa out lor a new speed record. We were mistaken. This la an endurance flight Such complete Incompetence and clear misman agement has not been exhibited on this campus for some lime. The bottle-neck arituigement of the bull pens in the coliseum has led to congestion. Fresh men, standing for hours in the same spot, have be come discouraged about attending the university. There will be a back-to-the-farm movement One freshman came to the coliseum Wednesday morning at 8 o'clock to register. He sat in the south balcony until noon. Then he went to work. Back in the afternoon, he sat in the balcony looking for guidance (there are no entrance nor exit signs) unta the place closed in the evening. Thursday morning, after having developed a bit of peevish ness and impatience, he battled his way to an ad visor. We haven't heard from him since. He is ex pected to reach the back door by the middle of next Last year the editor of The Nebraskan had some food fodder in the Student Council. We now, due to comparison, think the Student Council is exceed ingly well organized, in fact it is a wonderful cam pus governing body. Unless faculty leaders meet soon to plan better registration management the Daily Nebraskan will heed the public cry, and will call a convention of student leaders to deal with the difficulty very much at hand. The Start Counts a Lot. FRESHMEN, encountering ticket red cap, but ton, and subscription campaigns are beginning to wonder if there is no end to their miseries. They probably would appreciate a change in routine. But there is an end to your miseries, Freshmen. You are soon to have new vistaa opened to you. Annually at the end of what might well be termed Freshman Week comes the Chancellor's re ception in Morrill hall, the university museum. This event which will be held Friday night, is and should be of great significance to new students on the campus. Although the event itself doesn't seem to hold as much Importance as others its symbolical implications are of vast importance to all new students. When the new student meets, st the reception, he chancellor, dww, and department heads he is coming Into contact with the men and women who will have much to do In succeeding years with shap ing his attitudes, Ideals, and purposes. This faculty nd administrative group is representative of an in stitution which has had much to do with the prog ress of Nebraska as a state. With this thought in mind, every freshman should make it a point to be present tonight In Morrill hall sometime between 8 and 10 o'clock. The Nebraskan does not mean to say that fresh men must bow down In adulatory worship at the feet f these elders lined up In reception formstfCn. He should look forward to four or more years of n.rftlna these men and women on the spot testing with questioning mind their meones, pet p - n -CONPUllHgj "L 1 1 CAN FINISH MY JO-fe-, V W?JS pg lupp 1 1 gUt"! n r OsrttMM.

Everything Is being questioned thsse days, Vou freshmen might as well decide to do some querying yourselves. You newcomers who are missing out purposely on freshman convocations and other such activities are kidding yourselves. There is nothing like a good start to send one into the swing of affairs either on the campus or in public life. This business of being different merely because you want to maintain your individuality may be costly. It has been said that rugged individualists are men who haven't grown up. Preliminary to every freshman's career in the university comes a series of explanatory events de signed to set him on his feet and steady him on his university course. Few of these features are dis pensable. Of particular importance to the neophyte in ways of higher learning is the advisory system. By consulting his advisor the student may some day begin to catch a glimmer of purpose and plan in his life. Many freshmen sdvisors on this campus are men who have been in contact with young people for years. Don't try to kid yourselves, freshmen! There is no such thing as self-sufficiency or free will! Wonderful Thing, This FERA. FEDERAL funds expended on .university cam puses throughout the United States under the direction of Federal Emergency Relief Administra tion are hailed as being of boundless value both to students employed snd colleges and universities undergoing improvements financed by these funds. Five hundred fifty-three University of Nebraska students will soon be benefiting directly under this federal nroeram with money appropriate! for the express purpose of enabling young people to be educated in institutions of higher learning, mosi oi the 1,500 who applied for part time jobs on this campus were sincerely desirous of gaining a uni versity education. Others merely wished to have something to do. Due to the fact that there were tnree times as many applicants as jobs the university administra tive FERA committee was forced to become rather severe in regard to methods used in assigning jobs. Original requirements stated that students benefit ing under the part time job system must have high scholastic standing, rating in the upper one-fourth of their classes, whether in high school or college; and must demonstrate that they have real need of help. Several other strict pre-requisites were listed. As a result of the rigid rules in the first place, and secondly, because of stiff competition, many high class scholars were eliminated in the race fcr jobs. Although the committee rather hated to weed out some deserving applicants, the members can now rest in certainty that job-holders are likely to dem onstrate scholastic ability. Although some departments and buildings are overcrowded with workers, and as a result there is some criticism of the project many improvements and renovations of lasting value to the university are being made by student workers. Education is being given that boost it needed, and may, by virtue of the helping hand, rise out of the pits it has en tered since the inception of the depression. Educa tion, although being under fire as to methods, sys tems, and extension deserves all the help it can get Even though remuneration does not reach the proportions of a handsome stipend, top salaries be ing $15 a month, workers will be enabled to pay tuition to the university with the money. Thus both the university benefits from financial support, and the student receives his education. Of course a student entering the university must not overburden himself while he goes to school. If he does that there isn't much sense in attending college. FERA working hours leave student job holders sufficient time in which they can study and enjoy life a bit We hope that these 553 workers will try to lead balanced lives, and in that way get the most out of education. Government grants have brought the university much closer to the outside world than it has been for some time. Interest in government emergency relief projects among the general public is arousing added interest among the student and administra tive bodies of educational institutions of the nation. The campus has taken on the appearance of a busy co-operative community. Students of good govern ment and Utopianism are splitting into two camps that of the skeptics, and that of the enthusiastic supporters of New Deal relief undertakings. But in the bushel of optimism there is a grain of doubt. Many of us wwh to know how these huge expenditures will be balanced on government lodgers in the future without extensive taxation measures. But The Nebraskan will stay out of the nnlitiral discussions, both pro and con, and merely say that recent campus relief developments are thus . 1 I n jr rJ K.

To the university administration, particularly Dean of Student Affairs Thompson, go the heartiest thanks from those receiving aid, and from other students gladdened by the general optimism felt by all as the result of increased registration and cam pus Improvements This nation-wide FERA student project is at present bringing about a wonderful change in the national higher education picture. It has possibili ties of affecting materially the future social set-up of the United States. Theorists are having their field day. CONTEMPORARY COMMENT - Is Peace Radical? When the campus agitation against compulsory military training was at its height last semester, we felt but little interest in the problem. It did not seem to have any Importance, nor any bearing on any vital topics whatsoever. Personally, with all due respect to the leaders of the campaign, we felt that some of the boys loudest in their condemnation of R.O.T. C were seeking free publicity rather than upholding principles of democracy. However, during the summer, the situation has gained real significance. No longer is it a question of "Must the University, by Land Grant Law, Give Compulsory Military Training?" for everyone realizes high legal authorities have indicated other wise; the University, according to the accepted le gal rulings, must give military courses, but the compulsory features are in the hands of the Re the activities of the school and outlining the policies carried on thru the school year. The program is varied with musical selections, given by members of the faculty, and the programs will be contin ued ever KFAB periodically thru out the year. Homer Compton, graduate of the school of music and associate professor of voice, has been granted a year's leave of absence and will teach voice this year at the Babard college in North Carolina. CHANTS By MEREDITH OVERPECK. The university school of music, one of the outstanding institutions of its kind in the middlewest is planning a unique schedule for the coming year. Increasing enroll ment over last year tends toward a bright future In the music field. One of the interesting courses being offered by the school is the convocations and recitals, held in Temple theater every Wednesday afternoon at 4 o'clock. The public is invited to attend these pro grams, and students taking the course will receive credit as well as an activity point From seven teen to eighteen recitals and con vocations will be given a semester and the talent used will be either from the faculty artists or distin guished alums, v th sometimes ar tists of national tame. Music liter ature of unusual merit will be heard, and it is an Important part of every music student to try to attend some of these excellent pro grams. Miss Elizabeth Tierney, chair man of the 'theoretical department of the school of music has recently returned from a year's leave of ab sence in Europe, where she trav eled and studied composition and theoretics in Paris. Howard Kirkpatrick, professor of voice and director of the school of music has been giving a series of radio talks concerning AG COLLEGE Y. M. TREATS FRESHMEN Ag college T.

No longer is it a question of "Shall We Agitate for Abolition of All Military Courses?" for the consensus of opinion la that the training should be made more attractive and efficient for those who desire it and optional for those who don't The question now is of far deeper significance: Shall Certain Service Societies, Despite Their Un questioned Patriotic Ideals, Be. Permitted to Cover Their Fight to Maintain Compulsory R.O. T. C with a Guise of "Upholding the Constitution'? According to the new theorist, anyone who says he would refuse to bear arms In a war is a Tadical'. Indeed the national commander of the American Legion rited such universities as Columbia, Texas Christian and Ohio State as Institutions In which communistic theories are being taught Read and ponder over the charges made by the gentleman: "In Texas Christian University ws found a group of students saying it would be better to be a coward and yellow than to bear arms in war. We found a professor who was teaching students he would rather have his two hands cut off than bear arms in war. In the community where Ohio State University Is located we found ministers preparing their congregations' minds so that when students of the university rebelled against constituted au thority their congregations would be ready to sup port them in their stand. And this, mind you, Is a land grant institution, supported by the government they would overthrow." In other words, any student who cannot uphold nor participate in any war involving the nation Is a communist? Any person who dares to say that war is rotten and tragic is a 'dangerous radical'? If that's the case, we're proud to call ourselves "radical", although the Rooseveltian sounding term, liberal", is preferable. We hate war and we're proud of it! Daily California". Rev.
