Boos for Spirit .
Corrlhusker spirit, especially student spirit got a boost
such as it has seldom received at the "Football Kenais
sance Dinner" held Monday night in the Union.
With the chancellor, the Board of Regents, the coach
ing staff and the fQOtball squad on hand for the occasion,
student leaders were given a chance to hear the attitude
of the men to whom school spirit means most. Qhancellor
Gustavson, Coach Potsy Clark, Frank "Junior" Collopy,
speaking for the football squad, and R. W. Devoe of the
Board of Regents told the students how and why the student
body is the all-important factor in the matter of school
spirit.
Most of the criedit for the occasion should go to Potsy
who not only set the pace for the evening from his position
as toastmaster at the dinner but also originated and plotted
much of the activity needed to produce such an evening.
Students were pleased to be recognized by the athletic
department and the administration as rightful guardians and
perpetuators of the Cornhusker spirit. .Alums and faculty
can stress the need for spint all they wish, but it the stu
dent body does not feel the same loyalty and devotion to
the school and its athletic fortunes then school spirit cannot
be the stimulating force that is necessary.
While on the subject of spirit, one distressing indica
tion of oversight was given when the diners at the Monday
night banquet were asked to rise and sing "The Cornhusker"
as the closing portion of the program.
Few students among the crowd of leaders and football
players were able to follow through with the words. For the
football players the need of knowing the pep songs is not
too important, but for the rest of the students ignorance'
of the school's traditional songs, especially the alma mater
song, is a vital matter in the overall consideration of school
spirit.
If the Interfraternity Council and the Panhellenic group
would pass a suggestion down through the ranks asking all
fraternity and sorority members to include University songs
in pledge training and in song practices, a good bit of the
haziness on University of Nebraska songs would vanish.
There will be a meeting of
workers and new actives of Kos
met Klub Thursday in room 307
of the Union. All advertising
money must be in at that time.
TO THE EDITOR:
After having read the editorial
and comments on the disturbance
at the University, I am forced to
reply to some of the discrepancies.
First, the action taken by the
students was in no way related or
influenced by any political group
representing any ism; it was in
stead an attempt to get something
done about the parking situation,
which has persisted for some time
The police say no one was
pushed, but there are over three
thousand witnesses who saw
pushing. One detective attempted
tofctnke a student with a black
jack, but was prevented in doing
so by several other students.
The paper also said there was
no profanity, but one motorcycle
sergeant said, 1 11 kill the first
GOD DAMN PERSON WHO
TOUCHES MY MOTOR-CYCLE."
Detective Robbins also used pro
fanity.
One student had his watch bro
ken by a detective who attempted
to, drag him into the patrol car.
The policeman released him when
he noticed what he had done, but
offered no apology and did not
oiler to pay for the watch.
One detective tried to destroy
every camera which came within
his reach. One person with a
camera was pushed into a .police
car when he attempted to take
pictures.
It is regrettable that the stu
dents were FORCED to resort to
mass demonstration to get recog
nition of their grievances, but it
is more regrettable that some
University official saw fit to call
on the brutality of the police de
partment to break up a quiet dem
onstration and turn it into a near
riot.
I am a veteran student and I
a.n proud of it! I sincerely hope
that incidents of this type are not
again forced upon the students
by the BUCK-PASSING which
seems to be so characteristic of
this situation.
Yours truly,
Charles T. Gill

To the Editor:
The recent mob action was the
result of a long known contro
versy between the faculty and the
students on the parking situation.
It is regretful that mob action was
necessary to bring this situation
before the University authorities,
Other schools have worked out
this problem successfully os there
is no reason why it cant De
worked out to the satisfaction of
all here at the University. Some
schools have issued windshield
stickers with the student's ident
card number upon it. This eliml
ates the necessity for meaning
less tickets. It also curbs the
number of violations since the
sticker can be revoked after a
certain number of violations. If
it is true that numerous ron-stu
dent cars park on the University
grounds, let's get them out by the
use of stickers. If the problem is
lack of enough space, let's create
some more parking space. The
area south of the coliseum could
be converted quite easily. Park
ing near the Social Science build
ing is needly badly. If the curbs
on the north side of K street
were to be removed frm 10th to
14th, the cars could be allowed
to park diagonally. The area be
tween the curb and the sidewalk
is already graveled and since the
trend is to remove the traffic to
"Q" street instead of "R" street, I
do not believe tfiis would cause
any further traffic danger,
I think the windshield stickers
would help a lot but more spac
has to be provided for parking.
This ypace can't be too far away
from the main buildings either
If the faculty will put a little
thought into this problem, I am
sure the students will co-operate
m any sensible, workable plan
presented to them.
Lets hope our administration
isn't like a west oast administra
tion who recently squelched stu
dent opposition to a change in the
graduation ceremonies date by the
statement, "The itudents will like
it or else."
