1-1 I!' FRIDAY, KOVEMBEIl 16, 1931. TWO THE DATTT NEHRASKAN J Daily Nebraskan Station A, Llr.coln. Nebraska. OFFICIAL STUDENT PUBLICATION UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA This paper la repreiented for general advertising by the rteoraaKa rresa utiiiuii. The Administration Recognizes Adults. CTUDENTS of the university should be proud of tne iaci mat. uie uuuuuisirauvo ujuwiow fafltitution have seen fit to allow the student body to migrate to Kansas tomorrow supervised by only student chaperones. It is to the credit of the young mun and women attending the university that so much faith is placed in their good judgment and adult attitude. Now that the administration has placed all re sponsibility in the hands of the Student Council it is the duty of the students entraining to Lawrence Saturday morning to conduct themselves in a grown-up manner and justify the faith and trust of their elders. We should all be thankful that the paternalistic attitude has been dropped, or not adopted, whichever the case may be. Several hundred Nebraska students will be on the special scheduled to leave Lincoln early Satur day morning. They will all be out for a good time, and it is the desire of all fellow students and faculty members that they will enjoy themselves. Last year the young people on the special that traveled to Manhattan, Kas., were commended as a well-behaved group by the editor of a paper in one of the towns that lies on the route of the railroad. He declared that conditions had improved Im mensely since the year before. Last year the migra tion was chaperoned by students. In all fairness, however, we should like to suggest that the Kansas editor must have failed to notice some of the rather wild drunks on the train. There is always a certain group of smart alecks on any campus that feels the necessity of imbibing some splrltous beverage on every occasion of so cial importance, that is on any occasion when they can make nuisances of themselves. The Nebraskan urges those students travelling to Lawrence Satur day to forget the booze, for the sake of their own reputations and the reputation of the school. Dean Lyman, director of the student health department of the university, writing in today's Student Pulse suggests another very good reason for keeping away from the bottle. Tomorrow there will be a handful of drunks on the train, because there always is, and we aren't foolish enough to believe that bottle-tipping will sud denly stop. But critics of students should and must remember that a small minority of any student body is addicted to consumption of alcoholic bev erages la large quantities. Administrators should be thanked both in words and thru action for their fine attitude toward the general student body. For both reasons of duty and common sense students migrating should justify that confidence by acting like ladies and gentle men on Saturday's trip. Kansas Is Ready! University of Kansas football players, coaches, and students are pointing for the Nebraska game Saturday In the same way as Husker players, men tors, and fans aimed for the Pittsburgh tilt last week end. Enthusiasm has reached a fever pitch at the Lawrence institution, and on the Jayhawk field Saturday the southerners will be keyed up to snag a victory If the opportunity offers itself. Following the Pittsburgh victory over Nebraska last Saturday student spirit bogged down, but it is now rising to a higher level in preparation for the Kansas scramble tomorrow. The Jay scrap is a highly important one, one that may, if Nebraska loses, help to decide the Big Six conference cham pionship for this year. Kansas, altho it baa gone thru a rather mediocrt season so far, has compiled a good record in point of yardage in the last three games played against strong opponents Iowa State (0 to 0), Oklahoma (7 to 7), and Washington university (13 to 0. The K. U. line is one of the scrappiest and most im pregnable forward walls in this section, and aver ages over 200 pounds to the man in weight. Nebraska fans who have been inclined to be over confident in anticipating a Husker victory over Kan sas should think twice before making any rash bets. And after they think they should back the team with soma fine school spirit, such as that displayed be fore the Panther game last week end. Nebraska must beat Kansas to win the Big Six title, and the Huskers must win the Big Six championship. and sensitive about the outcome. Losera In the com petition will feel bad enough as It Is, without the help of some collegiate wit. Observation suggests that it is difficult to decide whether a contemplated act will be a practical joke or will be reasonably resented. Observation also sug gests to us and urges us to suggest that young men and women, for that matter, use their beads and common sense (if they have any) before acting in judiciously and unwisely. 169 NEW STUDENTS till taper la repreaentotf far genera1 advertising by Uie Nebraska Praia Ateeelatlen flweUted got.rp.ttt -mm lJJ titiwi Entered ae eeeond-clate matter at the ,POofflcti In Lincoln, Nebraska, under act of congrese, March 3, 187. and at special rata of poetaga provided for In ctioji 1103. act of October 3. 1917. authorized January 80, 1922.

What Is a Practical Joke' All of us recognise that there is such a thing as a practical Joke, and that a dirty trick involving un desirable consequences is far from being a practical joke. We should -place in the second classification the act performed by some would-be wit Tuesday evening when he phoned the three candidates for honorary colonel, informed each of them that they had won, and offered his heartiest congratulations. Figuratively speaking, the perpretator of that trick should be tarred and feathered or burned at the stake. Anyone entering the contest for the social honor of being honorary colonel Is bound to b worried Lyman Warns Students Against Bad Liquor. TO THE EDITOR: As director of the department of student health, I feel that I owe a certain moral obligation to the student body. One function of the department Is to protect the student against anything that may in lure the health of the student. As the result of t drinking party last Saturday night, "celebrating," I suppose, our fooball defeat, one of the fine young men has what is commonly called "Jake" paralysis This is a serious condition resulting from liquor containing wood alcohol. Many deaths have resulted from this and irreparable injuries have resulted from "Jake" drinking, but, this is the first case of this kind occurring in the student body of our unl versity. I am warning students of this danger which, I believe, has been increased by the repeal of our dry law. The only way to play safe is to let liquor alone. DR. R. A. LYMAN. Director, Student Health Department CONTEMPORARY COAMENT Catholic Religious Economic Thought, (The following excerpts from the Catholic World would seem Moscow propaganda and treasonable . it coming from other than such reputable and official source as tnis mouthpiece of Roman Catholic thought. They are impres sive indictments of the Dresent ecohomlc order that will provoke discussion, argument and, above all, thought. Editor). "It must be obvious by this time that capitalism is on the defensive, If not on the run. ..We are the last stronghold of capitalism. . .England was social istic even before the war. During the war the man who is now her prime minister was quite as anti capitalistic and antl-'Patriotic' as our Eugene V, Debs. We put Debs in jail, but England put Ram say MacDonald in Downing street Now there are signs. . .announcing the day of judgment for capi talism...but standpat capitalists, like divine-right kings, see nothing. They are Bourbons all. Louis XVI did not believe the revolution was com ing until the reds with picks and scythes and butch ers' cleavers were actually storming Versailles. Kings and czars have eyes and see not, ears and hear not; true too, of our contemporary kings of in dustry and czars of high finance. They will learn only when the mob is destroying the stock exchange and looting the mint... To drop history, remote or recent, and get down to brass tacks, anti-capitalistic sentiment is as rampant all over the world to day as anti-monarchial sentiment was in France and the English colonies in the last half of the eight eenth century. . .There is the old adage of Avid 'too late the cure when ills have gathered strength by long delay... Now if capitalism will take a hint from Catholicism, let it not delay its reforms. There Is no time to lose. As the motto on the sun dial says, It is Later Than You Think'." Incredible? Amazing? One rubs one's eyes and reads again, so difficult is it to believe these bold statements are expressed authorltively as the views of the greatest organized bodies of American peo ple, and, collectively, the most highly-educated. Yet these same declarations, from other sources, would be branded "criminal treason." Daily Csllfornian. Are We A raid Of Ideas? One of the reasons why so mucn heat is being ex pended on various topics of the day is our refusal to run the risk of ideas. We may face with equanimity the unknown quantities of everyday life in family responsibility, in jungle exploration, in competition business, yet we look with distrust and prejudice on the other fellow's thought. That this fear of counter opinions may be congentlal is seen in the power of ideas to frighten one even in dreams. "Tiger! Tigerl Burning bright...." And yet In a world misty with the conflict of il lusion and reality, where life itself is a supreme gamble, the free play, of ideas has been most bene ficial. By substituting the play of ideas to a great extent for that of action, intelligent man not merely has brought pleasure to the drinking of tea. He has also, by this peaceful method, resolved crises, averted disaster, and tasted the true fruits of culture. If, by accepting the risk of ideas, we have ad vanced along the road to technological and public welfare, we wilj do so again. But without gambling in the realm of opinion, we cut down our chances to success. Ws tend to overlook the Galeleos, the Bacons, the Darwins, who may be present. On the other hand, to explore a blind alley is to divest it of all enchantment It may lead nowhere, but it leads to no harm as well. England, by her Hyde park safety valve, knows that an opinion expressed Is not always an opinion espoused. Prance, in playing with ideas like a schoolboy with plngpong, recognizezs the same truth. Our great number of "isms," then, need cause no real fear. But they should be given plenty of rope. If wrong, they will hang themselves, as did a thousand other "isms" In early ninteenth century America. If right, they will simply hasten a prac tical synthesis of a new truth. We should fear, however, all efforts being made to avoid the risk of these "isms." Such efforts in duce preposterous pictures not only of communism, fascism, and the like, but also of "Americanism." Such efforts, again, breed hate and emotional in sanity, clearly inimicable to international good -will. President Sproul, of the University of California, recently begged the question when he said: "Listen and learn about communism, socialism and every other "ism" so that you may balance the different systems one against tha other, but don't be misled." Dr. Sproul need not trouble that college men and women will be misled, if public forums, universities, and schools will present all facts of these questions so pertinent to youth st this time and present these issues without bias and passion. Still useful is the text laid down by Socrates long ago: "Effective virtue Is knowledge. Los Angeles Junior Collegian. Awards for First Semester May Be Renewed for Second Term.
