grees from five oolleges. Brug
mann is a senior in Arts and Sci

j The favored Huskers will be cap-

Weather conditions should be
ideal for the game according to
local forecasts. The Weather Bu
reau says temperatures will be
in the high 70 's and for moderate
humidity.
Nebraskans were instilled with
football spirit at last night's rally
in preparation for Saturday's
game. Coach Elliott, expressed his
appreciation to the crowd for their
support.
As is traditional the Innocents
will man the gates and assist the
ticket men in handling the crowd.
There will be three student en
trances into the stadium, two
south and one north of the center
door, according to Adolph Lewan
dowski, business director of ath
letics. Lewandowski requests that
all student identification cards
and football tickets be signed in
ink. The tickets should be hand
ed to the gate officials with the
numbers out, Lewandowski said.
The usual card displays from
the student section will constitute
part of the half-time ceremonies
under the direction of the Corn
Cobs. Lewandowski requests that
all members of the card section
cooperate to the fullest so that
operations will go off smoothly.
The Cornhusker band, under the
direction of Donald Lentz, will
provide additional entertainment
during the halftime. The South
Dakota band will also perform.
Pre-game affairs include the an
nual N Club Alumni luncheon at
the Hotel Cornhusker.
Election of officers is the only

observed that studying prevents
one from receiving an education.
Developing the syllogism, be
said that since college is con
cerned with studying, not educa
tion, it is, therefore a waste of
time.
Dean Snyder answered Brug
mann by defining college as a
"'society of scholars, not stu
dents". She pointed tot he demand
for college graduates in business
today as proving the worth of a
college education and said college
trained an individual in group liv
ing and leadership, gave him alum
ni contacts to reunite with, post
poned work for four years, and
gave him an excellent chance to
meet a suitable mate.
Dr. Knowles stated, 'Most stu
dents would rather be caught
cheating than thinkiiig1'. He then
accused colleges of not knowing
where they want students to go
and students of not knowing where
they are going. He accused profes
sors of being unintelligible three
hours a week and invisible the rest
of the time.
Professor Knoll closed the de
bate by remarking that it was the
individuals duty to decide on his
goals. "The college cannot require;
it can .only offer and persuade,"
he said.
