THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
let's Face If
' In the Big Seven particularly at the Univer
sitythe subject of "school spirit" has usually been
a problem and often the topic of Student Council
discussions, class officer hassels and numerous
editorial.
It ha become apparent, at least to The Dally
Nebraskan, that in one certain controversy cur
rent on his campus, "school spirit" has been for-
I lh'Y REALLY I IKE 7MS A&WRCZB j
gotten. The main point of a student migration
seems to have been lost in the haze of talk
about finances, chaperones, the band's attitude,
University sanction and other such problems that
arise with semi-official functions.
It looks like the majority of University stu
dents want to migrate to the beautiful, cool and
interesting campus of the University of Colora
do. Cries of official and unofficial pleas for
"council loyalty" many voices have been raised
In regard to the very normal student desire to
r spend a weekend In the Rockies rather than
on the plains of Kansas.
The trip to Colorado on the migration train
or by car will cost more. The difficulties of
chaperoning will become greater on the Color
ado migration. University sanction for the west'
ward trek will undoubtedly be difficult to ob
tain. And, seemingly of greatest importance, is
the fact that the University Marching Band will
not go to Kansas and is already through the
necessary red tape to make possible its migration
to Colorado.
In past years, official migrations have con
stantly run into the snag of too little student
support Popular conceptions of thought have
it that driving somewhere in the Big-Seven for
a weekend is more fun than taking the migra
tion train.
University students are faced with a problem
energetic migration this fall. Despite all the odds
against it, Colorado seems the favorite. And the
point remains, that Nebraska students should travel
in force, in unity and in respect to their Uni
versity and their Cornhuskers.
Official migration Is not the point, however
great its advantages in the eyes of the faculty.
The Kansas University migration seems destined
to failure largely because the band will not be
there. A migration train to Colorado might be
a pretty tough financial boomerang for the Coun
cil underwriters.
Let's face it. Colorado has the unofficial ap
proval. The band's going. The Innocents Society j
wilt be there. A student is chartering buses for
the trip. Unofficial University migration might
prove more successful than the official trips of the
past. R.R.
Letterip
for Shame ...
Dear Editor::
"For shame!"
Those were the first words
which entered my mind upon
reading your editorial, "Mud
Slinging Demos," in the Septem
ber 18 Nebraskan.
I do not criticize you for taking
a stand on the battle for this na
tion's highest office. That is every
editor's rieht. I do not criticize
vou for suoDorting the Republican
rnnrtidate. for it is the right of
every individual to support whom
soever he or she pleases.
But for shame, that such a
bright and Intelligent girl as
yourself should be supporting a
Republican.
Be that as It may, I do criticize
you for the one-sided argument
you presented in the above men
tioned editorial. Being a recipient
myself, of The Democrat, the
propaganda sheet of which you
wrote, I will readily admit that
some "mua is suing" in mat sneei.
The Democrat, however, is hardly
representEtive of the type of cam
Daicn the Democratic candidate
of getting together a coordinated, spirited, and 'and his personal associates are
waging.
And if you do consider it as
such, I will recommend to your
readine curriculum another piece
of camoaicn literature, with which
I am sure your editorial oince is
blessed with receiving, its otnciai
title, when my eyes last fell upon
it, was the Young Republican Fed
eration News. Although the flag
of this GOP propaganda sheet may
have changed since that time, I am
sure that its content could narcuy
have changed. Its content, at that
time, was on the same if not a
lower level than hat of The
I Democrat
I recommend that you read
this GOP sheet, then present to
vour readers the other side of
the picture. The appropriate
headline for an editorial pre
senting this side of the picture, I
think, would be "Mud-Slinging
Republicans.' If you prefer a
shorter head, "GOP Mudsling
ers" would be fine.
When we get right down to
mud-slinging," it might be well to
discuss the aspects of the cam-

One of the first comments on John Sparkman's in his party. He Is not a fillibusterer but has can

One of eleven children,
Sparkman was born and raised
on a tenant farm In Alabama.
Keeping body and soul to

family, and by the time he was
ready to enter college, John
was accustomed to hard work.
He entered the University of

was not a federal issue ... but still quietly.
As a result of Truman's program, Sparkman
opposed his re-nomlnation In the last election.
He commented hopefully that Gen. Dwirht D.
Eisenhower "Is a good man aad on behind
whom we can unite." However when Truman's
nomination was secured, Sparkman returned to
the ranks to "carry out a clean-up campaign
against the Dixlecrats in his own state. AH
sins were forgiven and he was selected as one
of the five delegates to the 1950 UN General
Assembly.
With the advantage of his farming background,
snnrkman had one particular day of glory. Polish
Despite his financial handicaps, Sparkman
earned his degree (and a PBK key) In three
find a half years. His "spare" time was spent
on campus activities. Law was next on the
agenda and after practicing eleven years, he fi
nally entered politics.
Among the Southern politicians, Sparkman is
considered an out and out New Dealer, but he
