Pardon Our Attitude . . .
The last issue before Christmas vacation is traditionally
a time for editors to sit back and spew "Thanks" to the
four winds. Inevitably they end up being thankful for
everything and unhappy about nothing.
We are happy about many things at NU but we are
unhappy about many others.
We are unhappy that University alumni can force our
campus humor magazine drastically to change its policy.
Cornshucks' "new look" was not well received by the stu
dent body. Maybe a change was needed. But the argument
that most other - college humor magazines habitually get
away with the same things that Cornshucks has been de
nied cannot be overlooked.
We are unhappy that the administration of this demo
cratic University continues to refuse the Student Council
the power and jurisdiction it needs to become a real stu
dent governing body.
We are unhappy that the Council and The Daily Ne
braskan must be delayed by this administration in acquir
ing for students open, free and democratic political elec
tions and parties.
We are unhappy that students will have to leave home
for Lincoln on a legal holiday, and that one of their pre
exam study days has been eliminated because of the calen
dar change.

Sell Exam Tickets
The practice of selling examina
tion tickets at Southwest Missouri
State Teachers college has been
abandoned. Installed originally
for the protection of students,
under the new plan the cost will
be paid by the professors, with
an allowance of about 2Vic per
student, which will remit most of
the cost to the Co-Op committee.

The Daily Nebraskan picks Dick

The Cornhusker Countryman Is
dying a slow death! It's funds
are running out.
Funds with which the magazine
is published come from two
places. Subscriptions and adver
tising. The subscription list is
dismally meager, and as a result
the advertisers are beginning to
balk. Each month the income
just barely meets the expendi
tures and then only' by conserva
tive planning. This is bad, be
cause it hinders the editor by
regulating the size of the maga
zine and forces him to abandon
ideas for improvement of the
magazine because they are money
consuming.
Editor Keith Frcdrickson and
his staff have clone an excellent
job on the magazine the last two
semesters considering everything.
It has been more attractive and
newsworthy than ever before, but
they have no student support.
When speaking of student sup
port I don't mean support by
workers on the magazine, I mean
the students who haven't sub
scribed to the publication.
The Countryman is the official
publication of the Ag campus. It
is a vital part of any progressive
college, and it surely should be
the concern of every Ag student
freshmen, sophomore, junior, sen
ior or grad student; bar none.
There is a solution to the prob
lem. If every student in the Ag
college purchased a subscription
to the magazine the problem
would be solved.
This is not as difficult as it
may sound. Many other Ag
schools support their magazines
by an assessment which is in
cluded in registration fees. Dr.
W. V. Lambert, dean of the Ag
College, feels that this would be
an excellent idea for Nebraska
if the students are in favor of it.
This amount would come from
Ag students only and would
probably amount to only about 25
cents a semester. This manner of
getting subscriptions to the maga
zine would have a two-fold ef
fect. (1) It would increase the
initial fund gained through sub
scriptions. (2) It would make
advertising easier to get because
the magazine could boast of a
circulation of between 12 and
15 hundred.
Every Ag student should be in
terested in the project. It is your
magazine! Let's get some good
from the Countryman.
