Cornhusker Cavalcade Viewing With Alarm Has Its Good Points Frederic .Snyiler. lecturing ''living news paper" and foreign correspondent, held a Stu dent I i) ion audience spellbound in an address based on 1lie tiincly significances of the cur rent international situation. His liair-raisiim predictions of headlines of the. future and his glib descriptions of present issues made a deeper impression upon the minds of those, who heard hi in. One prediction tittered by Ir. Snyder who has a reputation for being ahead of the headlines gives just cause for eyehrowrais ing. lie said : '"We are destined to make several very serious national decisions in this period. Fur thermore, I believe we are destined to see a foreign nation attempt to raise its flag on our territory not the United States proper, but our possessions-" Whether he implies Japan in the Philip pines or Germany in .Mexico is merely specula tive. The important thing is that such viewing wii h alarm performs a service to the American people in awakening them to the j'a-et that im nation can be isolated during an international .crisis. When people hear authorities of Mr. ' Snyder's caliber bring the world's troubles down to earth, the natural reaction is for peu . pie to Ihink. And when people begin to think " sanely, frankly, seriously the alarm is di minished. Thinking on the part of the American peo ple is the greatest step in preserving democ racy from the continual threats of "isms." Py aii'.lvtieal thoiieht. even those millions win consider democracy nothing but an impractical theory of government discover that democracy ' can be a practical form of governmental func tion, a veritable blessing in disguise. Mr. Snyder sums up democracy's position todav with a neatlv-wnrded botannical anal ogy: "The United States should find and con ually re-find democracy, must realize it is a flower which blooms every hour and must be nurtured and cherished like a delicate flower if it is to bloom. The danger to our democracy, including- that from foreign ele ments which must be digested, comes from the indifferentist, or the person who won't take the responsibility to see that his own democracw works." Rah, Rah, 0. 0. There is abundant, joy in at least one Big Six football camp this year Oklahoma. The Sooners, undefeated and untied, are whooping it up not only for a victory over Iowa Slate at Ames this Saturday, but also for a bid to the Kosc howl. We victory-starved gridiron followers at Nebraska, who in the not so recent, past, have been doing the same, should not begrudge the Sooners' happiness. They deserve some of the grid glories which Nebraska has monopolized lor years. At long last. Oklahoma the fiK.ilmll world that Nebraska only university with a football team in the l!ig Six conference. We hope, however, that the older men on the Sooner siiad are not forgetting that Ihey have a Nebraska man 1o thank for their good fortunes. The Nebraska man is Coach Jiiff Jones who soundly tutored the Sooners in good football and then turned the job over to Coach Tom Stidhani. his assistant at. Norman, lo come to Nebraska in I). X. Bible's place. Stidhani is riding high with a championship-bound leant I hat ranks high nationally. Nebraska can be a good loser in this year's Big Six championship contest. A victory over Kansas Stale to go with the Kansas win would give the lluskers a better conference showing. een though the title will go to the winner of the Sooncr-Cvclone match. The efforts of the staff of the Cornhusker hi we been combined this. week in an attempt to boost a badly lagging photograph sched ule back to normal in order that work on the junior, senior, fra ternity and sorority photgraph schedules may be concluded by the first of the year. Individual posl cards are being sent out to each junior and senior urging them to have their photos taken, fraternity and sorority ed itors have sent letters to am. made personal contacts with each of the houses, stressing the importance concluding their picture schedule. December 3 has been set as the absolute deadline for the. photos. The reason for setting the dead line at that time is that the Town send studios who are in charge of the photography must clear up all of their other work In prep aration for the Christmas rush. New Picture Arrangement. Preparation of the photographs comprises a large share of the work on the yearbook. All of the pictures have to be set up on panels and then sent to the en gravers. The adoption of a new system of page makeup which provides for a different distribu tion of mateiial on each page dou bles the work on this section. Ac cording to Pat Lahr, this new system eliminates the monotony found in the picture pages of most annuals. After this panel is made up, It must lie checked for alphabetical is showing 1 arrangement, and correctness of is not, 1 he . material. riatciuuy ami sorority RELIGION AND LIFE WEEK.

Interesting is the fact that the , percentage of those under 70 was greater in the state than in the country as a whole, being 48.4 in Nebraska as against 30.6 in the country. During the same period Profes sor Orfield states that 15.6 percent of persons receiving old age as sistance funds were living alone; 77 percent were living with rela tives, and approximately 6 percent were living with persons not rela- tives. "With respect to the proportion . of persons 65 years and older re ceiving old age assistance, the number in June. 1937. ranged from 44 per 1,000 In Maine to 55H in Oklahoma," Professor O r f 1 e 1 d states. "The number in Nebraska was 282 per 1,000, this state be ing seventh from the top. Men ex . ceeded women by more than 9 per cent in spite of the approximately equal proportion of men and women In their age group. In Ne braaka out of 6,268 individuals accepted for assistance during the period Nov. l, 1936, through June 30, 1937, 2,691 were male and 2,275 were female; 5,132 were white and 107 were NYsgro, and 27 were of other races." you ravor dating 1 lotte htahl.

India Poverty Stricken. "India ought lo be the richest agricultural country in the world, but is poverty stricken. The In dian belief in transmigration and tlvir scruples about killing any living creatine are the major causes of this poverty. The caste system is another factor here," asserted the missionary. Higgenbottom explained the In dian problems dealing with the cows. The Indian cow is a poor milk producer.

After a year's successful trial, Ohio State university will this year subsidize activities of student organizations under a plan novel in U. S. col leges and universities. Five hundred dollars has been set aside lo help student groups bring speakers to the campus, ex pand social activities, and carry out other organized projects. Ad ministered by a dean and a com mittee of students, the plan will encourage extra-curricular intel lectual interests for students. Bringing in of outside speak ers is the most common use for the fund. Last year one club bought an "official rubber stamp" to use on its bulletins and put up a club bulletin board. Two clubs joined in converting an abandoned locker room into a social room. Reference handbooks and library books were purchased by several organizations. The Pen and Brush club found it possible with this as sistance to present a downtown v hibition of its work. Students in one department used their subsidy to secure a portrait of the department chairman and they plan to use their grants In suceeding years to add to the col lection of portraits of those who have contributed to the profession.

Dies Committee Probes Colleges Un-American Search Spreads to Students WASHINGTON, D. C. fACP). The Dies committee which Is In vestlgating un-Amcrlcan activities will probably pry into the opera tions of left wing student groups and youth organizations, if its re quest for increased funds is granted by congress. Charges of communism ami other subversive doctrines have been volunteered against some of these organizations, as well as data In support of the charges. However, no witnesses will he called and no formal investigation of the charges will be made during the current sessions of the com mittee. Lack of funds has forced the Dies committee to restrict the SCone of its investiirntlnnq nml with pressing demands for inquiry mto otner movements, it has post poned its scare'- into the activities of youth organizations. The youth leaders will probably be called before the committee later, if funds are forthcoming to continue its work. E. STANLEY JONES (Continued from Page 1.) prised Dr. Jones.
