OF ATHLETES
i AND STUFF
'.' It has been the custom of va
rious groups of people to point
accusing fingers and exclaim "for
shame" and "oh, the pity and
wrongness of it" whenever the
conversation veered to athletic
overemphasis.
Football, in articular, many
have moaned. Is overemphasized
far too much for the good of the
competitors and for the good of
the school for which the competi
tors compete. Educators and peda
gogues in high schools, colleges,
and the state university in Ne
braska have bewailed the fact that
athletics is too often subordinate
to education. Some few tolcrants
regard education as one business
and athletics as another
athletics and education
searate planes seems
Putting
n two
logical
enough.
On the One Hand.
It is easy to draw up an anal
ogy between the two. Athletics
ran h rilviHerl inln amateur and
. I professional and also in matter
of personnel, competitors and
coaches. Education can be di
vided into undergraduate and
graduate work and also in the
matter of personnel, students
and teachers. A student works
for a master's or a doctor's de
gree In his special line of work.
An athlete works for the equiva
lent of a master's degree when
he tries to make good in some
professional way, such as in
baseball major leagues, football
leagues, or commercial exhibi
tions. Here at Nebraska, there is no
doubt but what the most famous
facet in the diamond of university
activity is the football team. Har
vard has its law college, Colum
bia its literature and journalism,
Cornell its engineering, etc., ar.d
Nebraska its football team. The
athletic department and majority
I of the students are proud of it
Educators, graduates and quite a
number of undergraduates would
like to have Nebraska known as a
university because of its educa
tmnal facilities and benefits. Why,
then, is Nebraska's chief claim to
national recognition its football
tram?
There is one fact which we be
lieve furnishes the answer. And
that is the fact that the University
of Nebraska athletic department is
an effieiiri. organization, staffed
with men of business acumen and
organizational and directorial abil
ity.
Clean Hands.
Nebraska does not subsidize
and the athletes who come to the
university, while they come quite
often for the sole purpose of
competing in collegiate athletics
and are perhaps granted leni-
ency some times in classroom
'work, have a pretty strenuous
time of it trying to work their
f ways thru university. There are
no sinecures available for ath
letes, let atone a good job with
local business firms.
Nebraska docs, however, can
vass the state thoroly and effi
ciently for prospective athletes.
The athletic department fells the
university to the native sons from
the lime thev are able to go to
fathcr-and-son banquets and we
moving pictures of the Nebraska
football team in action until the
time when they matriculate at the
university. It is during the winter
and spring banquet season that the
coaches get in good licks for the
slma mater. The athletic depart
ment makes awards for high
sr-hoo achievement and thus gains
the appreciation of the award re
ceiver. And graduating athletes
go out into coaching positions in
Inch schools all over the state and
continue the process of selling Ne
braska. Cultivating Muscles.
But Nebraska does not culti
vate her athletic crops extens
ively, it cultivates intensively.
Meaning that it concentrates on
athletes within the state boun
daries and does not attempt to
contact and persuade athletes
from neighboring states that the
Scarlet-and-Cream has greener
pastures. If a foreign state ath
lete comes here, he comes here
of his own choice. Naturally,
this makes Nebraska appreciat
ed by other universities and also
accounts for the tact that the
great majority of competitors
for Nebraska are homegrown
products.
So what? So Nebraska gets
good athletes and consequently
good teams.
The moral? A crass commer
eiatistle one consistent sales
manship wilt work wonders.

'Vlck'mpf 'IV'clinjr,' 'Shucking'
All Derived From 'Cornhusker,'
Writes Miss Mable Meredith
" 'Picking,' 'peeling' and 'shuck
ing' are various terms used In
western Nebraska, South Dakota
and Missouri which refer to the
pulling of the ripe ear of corn
from its covering of diied shucks
on the atalk." writes Mamie J.
Meredith, Instructor of English, In
a recent article which appeared
In American Speech, a quarterly
of linguistic usage. Miss Meredith
has made a collection of terms
used In corn husking matches.
While various terms may be ap
plied to the same act In different
states, the university educator dis
covered th.it the linage of certain
words may differ from one local
ity to another. For example, "snap
ping" to some farmers in western
Nebraska means breaking the ear
from the stalk, but not husking
or stripping the sheath from the
ear. Also, the small metal Instru
ment which la used by the corn
husker to aid him In stripping the
shuck from the ear may be called
& "husking peg." "pin," "hook" or
may be Incorporated In a "husk

Corn husking matches 85 years

A definite meaning of the word

the issue of the proposed affilia

choir was reached Friday after
noon by the meeting of the spe.
cial committee of the boafl of re.
Rents in charge of investigating
the question.
"When it became eviil.Mii that
what the friends of the choir
meant by the use of the term 'Af
filiation' was to provide adequate,
permanent quarters in the Temple
building for the choir, which would
assume the name Nebraska Cathe
dral choir, the issue was greatly
clarified," Regent Robert W. De

special committee was continued
with instructions to make a sur
vey of available space for that
purpose, with the desire of accom
modating the choir."
Problem of Space.
According to a release of the
University News and Feature

the board of regents is therefore,
confronted with the problem of

The Important part that coin-

pioneers is shown by the many
uses of the husks. They were used
to help furnish their homes, such
as "shuck bottom" chairs, "corn,

stuffed with rcrnshucks. Corn
