Poae 2 The Daily Nebraskon Tuesday, October 8. 1957 V i Editorial Comment Victors9 Laurels The University of Nebraska football squad went into the Kansas State game a seven poi.-.t underdog. They came out the winner of both the game and the respect of many who would have buried the Huskers before the Big Eight season began. Those who take the slaps on the backs from folks around Lincoln land are probably the same ones who looked down in the dumps at the University footballers last week and the week before It's not too surprising to consider the effect victory has on the total population of the University. Those who had been fans of the Cornhuskers glowed with pride and pointed out individuals like Gene Sandage who played almost the entire game for the Huskers or Bill Jennings, whose cool determinism inspired the boys with a fervor to win. Those who quickly turn into fair weather fans when the scoreboard clicks the team into favor glowed also at the Cornhusker victory. We believe that taking the entire season into consideration at least at this early date well have to admit that the team has played some pretty hard balL The team has become more and more polished. They have finally arrived In the league they were meant to be is vying against squads like Kansas State. On the distaff side the prophets of woe are saying that the Huskers are in for another trouncing next week at the hands of Pitts burgh. Jennings admits that a couple of top men might miss the game because of injuries. But we'd like to make a prediction. This newspaper believes that if the the Corn huskers work as hard against Pitt as they did this past Saturday in Manhattan, that if the football enthusiasm of the students on the campus rubs hard the players; that if the alums would get behind the Huskers on their jaunt to the East, this football team can do as well as any other team Pitt will meet. That means they wiii play hard, drive bird and get some of that good old pioneer Ne braska spirit into the game. They may not win Pitt is top drawer stuff. But they'll do their durndest for Nebraska U. With one win under their belt the Corn huskers may shock a lot of people. They did it by thrashing K-State. They did it by stirring a lot of comment about what football spirit is and bow it in spires or halts a team. Maybe enough of the students at this insti tution were shamed by the poor turnout at the farewell rally Friday to think about what the team means to the school and bow the honor of the University is reflected by the prestige the football team collects. This may not be the purpose of a University to raise great grid powers. But it is cer tainly the measuring stick of the fame of a university to those outside the educational scope of a schooL The kind of success we'd like to see the football team capture is the kind that binds the University together into a family which can show the outside world that we play bard, we win hard and we lose graciously. More Culture Onoe again we can stress quite safely that culture isn't quite dead out here in the wilds of Nebraska. As a matter of fart, as one English professor commented Monday, "We've become an oasis, it seems." S'jpT! Monday thefJtejr.

And toda; we'd like tr plug the Uni versity The ater and the V - h Apparently, anyone aith an inkling that he or she can read the English language is eligible to try out for this reading and it looks like a novel experience for the University crowd. All of which points toward supposition that Lincoln has become a land of dates and palms and cool, clear water, nestled in the rusty desert of the state. Courtesy Sunday Journal and Star Slote programs which will be held this year in the University Art Gallery. First the Theater. This season the number of productions has been cut down. This move is apparently being taken to cut the cost but we can speculate that the quality of each pro duction will be improved with additional re hearsal time available. The Howell Theater group is planning to do four plays, two rather light ones this semester and two more on a somewhat different plane next semester. Dr. Dallas Williams said that the J. M. Marrie play '"What Every Woman Knows" is first on the bilL A ticket campaign (offering reduced prices and what have you) is now being conducted by the theater. As for the gallery shows, two University English professots, Miss Bernice Slote and Karl Shapiro, wIH conduct a poetry reading program this evening at 8:30 in the Morrill Hall facilities. This program, one of many which win be sponsored by the English Department and the Art Departments, will include the poetry of University students. The evening's entertain ment is free. AH three of the above mentioned departments are getting their skulls together to provide another form of entertainment, a play reading, which will be held in the Art Galleries. Pub Board As far as the Student Council nominating committee is concerned the greatest part of the battle is over. The interviews are over. The nominations have been made. Now it will be up to the council to take to heart the tons of advice handed out so freely by all parties involved over the past couple of weeks and pick the student members of the Pub Board. The choices which will be made will, we believe, affect the future of the student vote on faculty committees. During the past week or so the Daily Ne braskan has spoken of the added responsi bilities which go along with student votes. Now there is one more step which, if taken in the food faith with which the nominees, applicants and committee members took their respective steps, we can be assured of a top flight pub board. We'd like to see student votes reinstated on the faculty committee. This seems to be pretty well known. We would also like to see the student mem bers of the pub board take on extra respon sibilities. Both go hand in hand, we feel. So, as has been stated before and win be stated again, it's up to the council. What the council win look for in the nominees and what they win give to the students should be a matter of deep concern to all students on this campus. We would recommend that students start talking to their council members and let them know what they want and who they want for the pub board. A good deal of lobbying might change the minds of the council members. And in any democratic society the representatives have an obligation to listen to their constituents. So from the final results of the pub board we might be able to gauge a couple things: 1) the interest the entire student body has in this important action; 2) the acceptance of respon sibility by the council. Both results should be very enlightening. irom ike ediloi First Things First . . . bv Jack Pollock Migration, Homecoming, and the Cornhuskers seem to be primary conversation topics this week. The Student Council is expected to have a Migration announcement soon possibly this week with the move almost assuredly being to Missouri. On Homecoming: Students generally agree Puke Ellington's nametag carries more appeal than the band hired last year, although Charlie Spivak's crew played to a near-capacity audi ence. Significance: Tickets win go faster and could indicate a sellout crowd for the Nov. 2 event. On football: Last week Kansas State coach Bus Mertes predicted (after K-State .overpow ered Brigham Young 36-7) 'Our games win be Jteugher after Ihis and we'll have to play better to win against .Nebraska." Ee was right. The Cornhusker victory gives Nebraska 33 victories in the 42-game series with seven for K-State and two ties. The Huskers, incidentally, played with an injury-pocked squad while the Wildcats ran at nearly fuU strength. This week the Huskers face the powerful Pittsburgh Panthers, which boast a starting line averaging more than 229 pounds, from end to end. Coach Johnny Micheolsen modestly claims "Depth is a terrific problem."" The rugged Panthers this year kept 11 of 2a lettermen but lost their two quarterbacks, Corny Salvaterra and Darren Lewis, as wen as seven starters. In addition they lost five alternate-teamers according to pre-season re ports. While we're on the football jag. North Caro lina reported an "exceptionally smaiT turnout of "only" 300 students for their pre-game pep Tally before a Tar Heel-Clemson contest earlier this year.

I suggest a return to the primev al forest It's time for students to take eff ivies and put on rags. It's time to drop ihe golf clubs and turn off the hi-fi. It's even time to lay down the books and pick up a road map. Grab your fishing rod and your shotgun, too, for you'll need them. We're getting out while the get ting's good. Or at least we ought to. Thoreau is calling, and Krutca would have us answer. Let's go. I'm tired of the classroom, the theater, the Unions, the Turnpike, the stadium. I'm sick of parking, housing, enroUment, spirit. I've had enough of it all, haven't you? Everyone should have made a new semester's resolution not to attend the conventions that college would invite him to. But that hasn't been done en masse, any wayfor the Crib and the Varsity are as full as ever. I'm with the bunch, too. No one is a person; everyone is people: you know, the individual against society. And the wrong one is considered para mount, I believe. I don't even want to talk about it: the talking itself is getting to be convention. I feel that an intermission would relieve my restlessness. I hope everyone will take time out with me, whether he is restless or not. The change would do you good. So I'm packing my things while I've stm the sanity to find my suitcase. I wont need to take much along, though, for I intend to live off the land. IH pick cur rants and shoot rabbits. With care, though, because I believe in rev erence for life.

Ill breathe air not pol luted by exhaust from either en gines or mouths. IH fin my eyes with the nautral nature. At night IH lie down in sticks and leaves, and sleep for once. The can of the wfld win be my alarm clock, and it will go off when it wants. Ill get up and fry a mess f fish for breakfast. Then 111 be ready to sit down in Tanganyika or wherever I go and get a hold on. AH by myself, loo; I'm going to be selfish about that. I don't want a single solitary soul around. Everybody else can find his own solace. Satellites, Arkansas, Teamsters wi3 aU be shoved away. The head win shake out the brain until afl the knots come undone. Then the brain win let up on the nerves so that they won't be like rubber bands. And the nerves wfll rock loose the muscles so that the Letterip Lauds Hunkers To the Editor: Now that the footbaD team has won a game I am wondering what the press of the state of Nebraska will have to say. Luck? Poor playing by Kansas State? Whatever is said, you can be sure it win be a reversal of last week's pounding on the door -of the University in search for some excuse to .explain away the Husk ers'' previous losses. On the .other hand I would be Inclined to believe that the footban squad won because it played bard, because it had the desire to win. The Daily Nebraskan noted Mon day that very few persons turned out to say farewell to the team. That didnt seem to make much difference to the boys 'ho got in to the game. And from an reports they didn't make a lot of noise after the game whooping it up on the occasion of their first win. Whatever the motivation for the initial win, I think it is safe to eay that the Huskers were batting in their own league against Kansas State. One local sportswriter had it pegged right when he said that if we want a top notch team well have to go out and pay for it This morning Monday J be print ed the letters from people around the area who seem to agree with bim ia essence. So do X. But no matter what, when the Huskers are playing teams equal to them they H play their hardest to win and I think we ought to they've shown that football comes before spirit. Tom Boerscbiager physic as well as the psychic will moUify. After the mind is purged of con vention and the body cleansed of its effects, naps can be taken. That is, when the senses lose the reception they're used to getting, rest will be possible. A good old fashioned lemonade, breeze, and porch swing type of rest- The whole body is out of it; nil. . . Then, after a while of peace, a record of the past can be played so that an understanding of the trouble will be gained. That is, hamburgers and television can be observed in new lights. It can be seen that they bind tightly. Old windows of conformity can be opened so that one can get a glimpse into new Moms of heresy. Old ideas can be looked at in dif ferent perspectives; and there fore, new insights wffl be gained. A recognition of the common prac tices wfll be achieved, and that win lead to aa understanding of previous action. To understand is to know the truth. And to know the truth is to be free, they say. Oh, for that freedom! Then, after the personal renais sance it's ' time to get back into circulation. The picnic's over. Yoa can't stay a hermit all your life. . . that just isn't done. My word. And besides, escape never nets tran quillity; neither does it bring about change. We're an obligated to stay ia and pilch. The forces are just weakened when one leaves. But you wfll come back with new out looks on society. And you win stin practice what you have examined and criticized, but you wfll know why you do it, perhspt. That's the main thing. Then some other time wbea you feel especiaDy intelli gent, yoa can run off and hash the whole thing out again. But not very often, please. Once a year is nice. t I couldn't be sunt the guy was telling the truth. But whatever the esse was this hitch hiker told me he "was one cf those Nebraska hars." He a.lded, "I don't know why. I guess there just isn't anythir.g h?:e for a guy like me to be at tracted to." Brother! What an attitude. I asked him whether he had ever been to the Sandhflls or out to the Nebraska Natiraal Fores. I wendered whether hs had ever been to the great natural fsris: a'.crg the Missouri River or to the rcllirg lands along the Loup a-d North Platte Rivers. 'X o o o p e" he said just as cock sure of himself as anyone I' v e ever come cress. "And furth er more,'" he sneered. "I j i'i drn't intend to f ' J get out in the wilds o! the state and be lost t9 civilization." That W3s putting it mildly. This gtiy should have been left in the slums of the deep South where he admitted having come from. "What Tm lookir.g for is night life." Then he went into this spiel about driving from Newark to the Bronx every weekend when be was in New Ycrk City. That must have been a nice ride. I suspect he tock the subway, or whatever Xew Yorkers have to get around on. I suggested he go to Ross's in Oma ha for a good time. "Xcvcr heard cf it," says he. I suppose his attitude is typical of most Xebraskans who don't give a care about their borne state. Even guys like this bird who aren't native sans "and I'm far from one) can appreciate their slate if they take the time to sit behind a V Eight and look around. Despite the bumpy roads and the crowded highways, there's plenty to see in Xebraska. But whoTl vxxa for the fia t. Count "em. On this hand. For upper class men only. That great American journalist Freder ick T. Daly Three left the legacy of the Dirty Old Man t'Me floating around the campus. Xow since a feflow travel ed mine has claimed that I'm the biggest Bohemian in appear ances, not cationaiityt on the campus I would think there would be "a challenger" to this somewhat dubious title. Day in and day out I see sloppy people walking around the campus. KOTC people let their shoulder straps Can over their collars and lapels, girls, unaware of their slate walk around with their crinolines sh:win;. t""h:rs l?t their s'lirt cellars paint lp wards, dess let their bash?s hanj loose. In all circles slobs are running loose. There must be more deserv ing young men on the campus who have earned the "Dirty Oid Man" title. Readers are hinting every new and then that they have spot ted a likely cand:date but no tak ers will shew their facrs in our cubicle. Here's whit Mel Tirouk. a senicr in the Arts Coi.tse wr.tes, ""Tooay i pcaed the J?ri L. Lewis cf the University world.

The what' t-in-store-in-the-fu-ture department: Men, are you tired of gettirg turned down by a girl and then seeing her cut with some other college Joe? Do you feel depressed when you're tcld that a young lady's washing is more important than a date with you? Have you been told lately that "she" can't go out with you cut her steady wouldn't like it and then have you seen "her" with every Joe, Jim and Charley on the campus? If so, watch this column for ex poses on the methods girls use to void getting dates. A group of losers have been d ir.g research on this topic for a number of weeks cow and have just about completed ihe report. You'll be surprised to learn thri the leader of the staff is condi tioned to being told "no."

Well, this old pro may have moved from Lincoln to Ames. But what was it She Lincoln Police De partment said when the Dells were robbed just recently? "Since this is a fraternity matter we wont inter fere?" I know many who say that drink ir.g is parking lots or double park, ing ia front of the girls dona or blocking fsaternity driveways ia aa effort to get a place to park are fraternity matters too.
