Rushing Revisions
Seem in Order.
"Ml ON DAY night members of the Interfraternlty
council will bring before their respective fra
ternity chapters the subject of rush rules for next
year if Instructions given at the council's last meet
ing are heeded. Forgetting to present for chapter
action many matters which the council later decides
is a common sin of council members. It is to be
hoped that they will not forget Monday night for
no subject more vital to the fraternity's very ex
istence exists than that of rushing.
Numerous flaws in last year's rules have been
pointed out and a substantial number of changes
cave been recommended. Two tesues, however,
stand out above the rest as calling foi revision,
the five-day rush week and the rule prohibiting
rushees from staying in fraternity houses during
rush week.
It is interesting to note that as early as last
spring, the alumni board of control recommended
to the interfraternity council that rush week be
shortened and that rushees be allowed to remain
in houses during the rushing period. Both bits of
advice were politely ignored and the youthful
Greeks went merrily on their way to an expensive
five-day rush week and an unknown but probably
substantial number of Infractions of the other rule.
Since that time some houses have closed, others
are on the verge of disaster, while a large number
are literally shaking in their shoes. Few can boast
of prosperity. It would seem that intelligent think
ing leaves but sne course of action open on each
of these matters from the fraternity man's point
of view and that is revision.
In the first place, fraternities cannot afford the
drastic drain on their treasury which the five-day
rush week exacts. To entertain and also feed a
large number of rushees for so long a period is
to court disaster unless a house is numbered among
a select few who are prosperous. And on the face
of it, five days of rushing is too long. It leaves
Greek and rushee alike worn out and disgusted with
attempts to entertain and be entertained. Few in
deed are the rushees who are really going to pledge
and do not have their minds made up In three days.
A three-day rush week would easily suffice,
and adequately serve the purpose of both frater
nity and rushee. Its adoption by campus Greeks
would be a progressive step and should be secured
at once.
Arguments for permitting rushees to remain in
houses during rush week may not be so self-edi-dent
but most certainly the advantages exist. Many
rushees reach Lincoln without the faintest idea of
where they will stay. When they finally do de
cide, often they must pay a month's rent in ad
vance. Naturally a fraternity's chance to pledge
and move in a man who has his rent paid elsewhere
are materially decreased. In many cases the fresh
man stays in that one spot the entire year and the
chances for him to become a fraternity man dwin
dle as each day passes.
And it is a well-known fact that rushees do
stay overnight in fraternity houses during rush
week despite the rule to the contrary. It is so
cleverly done sometimes, however, that it escapes
detection, and the group that does shoot square Is
thus placed at an unfair disadvantage. The sham
and pretense which Is practiced in regard to this
rule should be eliminated now along with the rule
for once and for all.
Today U a day of testing. Probably in no in
stance is this more true than in the case of fra
ternities. Nebraska fraternities have an opportunity
to prove themselves capable of looking out for their
own economic Interests by revising the above rules.
The test should prove interesting.

One could go on at some length enumerating the
worthwhile activities of various professional and
honorary organizations. The point is that they
re active and functioning.
On the other side of the fence are a large
number of groups supposedly maintaining a place
on the campus, but they are not fulfilling the duties
of that place. Many are existent in name only, not
even bothering to pledge members or hold occa
sional meetings. Others take that much trouble,
but let their activities stop there. They pledge
members, collect an initiation fee. Issue t shingle
or a pin, hold one or two meetings and call it a day.

In the first place, Thomas Wolfe's book is not
a novel at all, but is a legend of Man's hunger In
his youth, as he himself calls it. It is the story
of Eugene Gant's hunger, his search for Something
in Altamont (In the South), Harvard Univer
sity, New York, Oxford, Paris, and rural France.
At the end, on page 912, Eugene Gant, returning
to America, knows that his heart is caught. "After
all the blind, tormented wanderings of youth, that
woman would become his heart's centre and the
target of his life. . ." But he has seen the woman,
has never even spoken to her. The whole of the
book is concerned with Gene's restless peregrina

indeed, one of the episodes is Wolfe's "Portrait of

And there are essays to point out the meaning of
things, inquired into America's dualism, and pond-

guish and of magic and he never comes to know
it aa it is, until it has gone from him forever."
Further, there are pages which are so unmistakably

Humanists may shake their heads over the
book's lack of classic restraint and class-struggle
propagandists may shake their heads over the ab
sence of proletarian ballyhoo; but the book can
not be dismissed with head-shaking. "Of Time and
the River" Is of the "Incomparable substance of
America."
In the book there is one passage which is re
markably revealing as to how and why such a
tower of words was ever got together. Thomas
Wolfe's autobiographical Eugene Gant Is writing.
"The words were wrung out of him i na kind of

GLADSTONE SUBJECT
OF KNAPLUND SPEECH
AT
English Premier Revealed as
Interesting Figure to
Students.
Gladstone wns revealed by
Frofcssor I. A. Knaplund of
Wisconsin university, in l'riday
morning's convocation period,
to be a figure of especial inter
est to students, because of his pol
icy of a liberal education, his con
ception of history as the only true
philosophy, and his interest in
reading. With a library consisting
of approximately 40,000 books, he
indulged in a habit distasteful to
librarians that of scribbling In
the books. From this, we find that
he liked to read light things, as
well as scholarly. Dr. Knaplund
commends the fact that Gladstone
didn't become fossilized stereo
typed.
A Scottish ancestry, apparently
tempered his conception of finance,
his father being a nara-neaaea
businessman who held a good
many home discussions of private
and public financial matters. Al
tho his father left him a million
dollars, Gladstone was so saving
that he kept the unused stationery
from letters that came to him with
extra sheets. He was no, however,
a miser having given away more
than $600,000 to charity before his
death.
Gladstone said: "You cannot
train colonies except by giving
them freedom, to keep them satis
fied. Don't impose any tribute and
by treating them generously, they
will give us what we never could
wring from them." As a matter or
fact, those possessions treated as
Gladstone advocated, . (Canada,
Australia, and New Zealand among
others) did come loyally to the aid
of England in 1914.
Gladstone believed that the ob
ject of a peace treaty was to pro
vide peace. He denounced war.
"War means retrogression, stimu
lating lust, stirring up the evil pas
sions. It has never elevated man
morally or spiritually."
Dr. Old father, in introducing
Professor Knaplund declared that
the latter knows as much about
Gladstone as any living man. He is
the author of one book on this sub
ject and several others are at
press.

He declared that American
teachers have made great progress
in the direction of academic free

of John Dewey and Fror. ueorge
F. Counts that American teachers
are mere representatives of preda
tory interests.
The assertions oi fror. counts
that capitalism has failed and is

Prof. DeBauire aescnDea me

method of extracting helium from
natural gas. He traced the process
of the gas thru the plant, and also
told of the extraction of nitrogen
as a by-product.
"Helium was aiscoverea in tne
spectrum of the sun in 1886," he
said, "and its extraction was made
a few years later by an American
scientist Little was done with
helium until the World war." De
Baufre stated, "when a method of
extraction was discovered by a
graduate student at Kansas uni
versity. The government then
erected three helium plants."
The plants failed to operate ef
