A Jeopardy . . .
We watched the 1950-51 yell squad yesterday after
noon while they rehearsed a mythical game from the open
ing kickoff to the final gun. The nine-man team "ran
though" this game as if it were Saturday afternoon in
stead of Wednesday. And their pep and enthusiasm were
worthy of any football crowd.
This rehearsal was not an unusual practice. Rather it
was typical, for the squad has been working on their con
tribution to school spirit since last May. Some of the mem
bers continued to practice and improve throughout the
summer and all of them were "back in the harness" this
fall, practicing at least two hours each day.
Hard work and strenuous practice do not, however,
determine the success or failure of the yell squad. This is
regrettable, for no one deserves more credit for putting
their heart and soul into tne improvement or jornnusKer
spirit than these boys. But the most polished cheerleaders
will fail if the student body, whom they must depend upon
for support, have already decided against them.
There is some feeling against the move to inaugurate
an all-male yell squad. Many students have expressed
opinions that girls have been responsible for school spirit
in the past, and without them, spirit will be almost non
existent Others feel that boys do not have the ability to
enthuse and stimulate a crowd. The comments are not di
rected against the present members of the squad, but
against the principle of all-male cheerleaders.
The time for decision for or against this new plan is
not this Saturday. It cannot be decided objectively until
the end of the football season. Mistakes will be made in the
first few games these are expected as in any beginning
organization or function. But the mistake that should not
be made is to allow prejudice to influence the reception of
the all-male yell squad Saturday afternoon. Such prejudice
should be forgotten, ignored and repudiated. If it isn't,
then we are all jeopardizing the spirit at our University.
Energetic 1871 Students
Began NIPs First Paper
University Publications have
geen many changes since their
first founding in 1871.
According to information in
Love library's Acquisitions, Ser
ials and Catalog department,
"The Hesperian Student" was
Nebraska university's first regu
lar publication managed entirely
by students. Editors and reporters
would find a marked contrast if
they were to view the office of
today's "Daily Rag."
Attic Newsroom
The first newsroom on the
campus occupied an attic floor,
and it remained one of the jobs
of the staff to keep the fire going
to heat the building. Original
New York School
Oils Class Cuts
According to the new policy at
Adelphi College, Garden City,
New York, students on the
Dean's list" shall have no limit
placed upon the number of
absences from any class.
The list includes those stu
dents whose work during the
preceding two semesters has
averaged 2.5 or better.
Any announced tests or exams
missed, will be considered fail
ures for that particular exercise.
An absence will in no case be
reason for the repetition of any
part of the work. .
Ia any case of prolonged ab
sence due to illness or other un
avoidable causes, hew ever, the
student may petition for permis
sion to make up the work with
out penalty.

serial stories and items on cam
pus activities made up the bulk
of the paper.
The careless makeup and proof
reading errors gave more amuse
ment to the student readers than
did the paper's substance. Under
the new management of editor-in-chief
Willa Cather, higher
standards were maintained and
made the paper tops.
"The Nebraskans" or "Riley's
Rag" as it was nicknamed be
cause of its first editor was
founded in 1894 as a rival to
"The Hesperian."
Two Merge
In 1901 the two papers were
merged into what we now know
as "The Daily Nebraskan." Under
its new setup, greater financial
support was received from the
University. The editor was se
lected by the publications board.
Today's news office occupies
a large room in the basement of
the Union. "The Daily Nebras
kan" has gained prominence as
one of the best university dailies.
"The Button Buster," a fore
runner of our present day Corn
Shucks made its appearance in
the early 80's. It was a humorous
publication issued by the Palla
dians. Campus artists and cartoonists
got a chance to reveal their
talents with the founding of "The
Awgwan" in 1912. It died out in
1948 at the age of 35 when tb
Cornshucks now edited by Frank
Jacobs took over.
"The Sombrero"
The Sombrero," the first an
nual, appeared in 1884. In 1894
it featured a picture of a donkey
as an honorary staff member.
The little animal that the French
teacher rode to school had finally
become "big time."
In 1907, a combination of the
junior annual and senior class
books formed the first "Corn
husker." The literary stories and
jokes that once possessed the
book have been replaced by pic
tures and activity stories.
little resemblance will be seen
between the 1951 Cornhusker
edited by Dick Kuska and the
first publication of 69 years ago.

New Coed Sweater Styles
To Dominate
College girls can take the
credit for inspiring at least one
of this season's important fash
ion trends. After looking at col-
legiate sweater sleeves, top de-
signers have come up with
down - to - earth shirt dresses,
sleeves pushed up and staying
put, and coats with sleeves
pushed up, worn over wool
sheath dresses with sleeves
drawn tight to the wrist. The
dresses come in flannel, in
checked wool and knitted wool.
They're snug, they're slim,
they're comfortable they look
j best on the move and they take
i wearing.
Basic sheaths and contrasting
cover-ups the illusion of two
dresses for the price of one
dominate the dress-up depart
ment. Halter-topped taffetas
bowed at the neck are trans
formed by a velvet jacket into a
semisuit Sapphire rayon velvet
sheaths, open-necked, come with
matching jackets. Jacketed, you
start out in an informal mood;
unjacketed, you're set for cock
tails, dancing or any other semi
formal occasion.
Coats to Vary
While the accent is on slim
ness this year in dresses, the
good news about coats is that
no one shape dominates. It may
be the enormous tent falling

Ideal Traits
Of Roommate
Are you considerate? Are you
loyal? If your answers are
"Yes!" you might make soma
lucky person a good roommate.
Students from all over the
United States were asked by the
college board of the Going-to-College
handbook what qualities
they thought essential to a good
roommate. Tabulations show a
desirable roommate 1. is consid
erate (about lights, radio, use of
room, etc.); 2. respects personal
property and privacy; 3. is loyal;
4. goes at least half-way; 5. helps
keep a neat room; 6. can discuss
controversial questions without
getting ruffled; 7. makes reason
able adjustments; 8. keeps reas
onable hours; 9. cultivates a
cheerful disposition.
If none of these traits sound
familiar to you, perhaps you are
on the negative side. A naughty
roommate 1. thinks chiefly of
self; 2. makes unreasonable de
mands; 3. betrays confidences; 4.
borrows without asking; 5. leaves
things scattered around; 6, argues
heatedly; 7. is nosey and noisey;
8. comes in late and wakes every
body up; and 9. is too solitary
or too sociable.
Add, Drop Office
Remains Open
Add and drop procedure will
now take place in the Admin-'
istration building instead of the
Military and Naval Science
building.
Any student wishing to change
his schedule either by adding a
subject or dropping one should
use the following procedure:
1. Pick up a work sheet from
the registrar's office.
2. See his advisor and have
the changes approved.
3. Secure the approval of the
dean of his college.
4. Visit the Administration
building and submit the work
sheet with the proper signatures
for registration in the desired
classes.
