Editorial Comment
Is He Eligible?
Somebody isnt sure that he should be
where h is. This somebody is Gary Rodg
ers, vice chairman of the Student Trib
unal, who last year was elected to serve
as a junior representative.
The school year came, however, and
Rodgers ended up in Law College as a
freshman. This means that the makeup of
the Tribunal is not as prescribed in its
charter. Law College has more people
than its supposed to and the junior class
has less.
This might be a minor point to other
Tribunal members, as evidenced by their
failure to even think about it so far, but
it shouldn't be to the student body. Al
ready the Tribunal has announced that
it will bold open meetings only when it
deems that advisable. This may be never
but perhaps it's inadvisable to remind
them of this. After all, once "judges" have
Extra Points
Tassels and Corn Cobs should be compli
mented for their leaders' announcements
that the clubs would make personal drives
for membership in the Extra Point Club.
Membership in such a group should cer
tainly be voluntary and the Daily Nebras
kan would not have challenged these
groups to participate had it not obtained
its 100 membership voluntarily and felt
at the same time that these pep clubs
would also have strong desires to express
their backing of the Husker football team.
Nebraska sports fans have had more to
cheer about since last basketball season
than they have had in the previous three
or four years combined. It's interesting lo
note that the major cycle has been made
from basketball to track and now football
with each season full of thrills and rea
sons for Husker fans to be proud.
Many of the outstanding athletes on
these teams have been helped with grants-in-aid.
Membership in the Extra Point
Club would seem to be only a small token
of appreciation for the tremendous re
building job being done in all sports here
at the University. Student memberships
would also provide a challenge for adult
Nebraska fans to also join the club. The
state may be under populated by oil
wells but at the same time let's hope that
it isn't also lacking fans willing to do more
than grumble about a bad team. No good
football team in the country got where it
is without the aid of its fans.
been appointed by fellow students to pass
judgement on student discipline cases they
seemingly elevate themselves beyond the
reach of student scrutiny. How can they
get away with this? Even that answer
seems secret.
Rodgers was unable to tell the Daily
Nebraskan who ruled on the eligibility of
Tribunal members. This should engender
great faith in the group if its vice chair
man is either unable because of lack of
knowledge or unwilling to answer because
of personal reasons what would seemingly
be a simple and not unfair question.
The Nebraskan fails to see any reason
for a student composed group or a Uni
versity body supported by tax funds to
perform its activities in secret. This is
especially true w hen the group has strong
powers over a student. The right to mete
out punishments for cribbing, drinking
and similar student crimes cannot be con
sidered a small performance. And this
same power or rights should at the same
time never be accompanied by the though
less suppression of information on Tribunal
rulings.

Young Politicans
The past week saw organization of the
University Young Democrats Club which
means that both major political parties are
represented on the Nebraska campus.
Neither of these groups can be expected to
make any great revolutions in the makeup
or policies of their senior parties in the
state, but it might not hurt if the two groups
concentrated on urging legislation which
would benefit Nebraska's educational sys
tem and facilities, including the University.
The students are close to these problems
and could exert strong influence on mem
bers of the Stale Legislature in such mat
ters. Certainly it should be the duty of both
groups to do more than repeat the informa
tion they get from their national and state
headquarters. They should make their only
conclusions on matters of importance to
them as young Nebraskans. This would be
far more beneficial to them than running
mock elections or wearing party pins.
It should be interesting to see how well
the Young GOP and Demos get along. It
will be terribly disappointing if they do. So,
welcome aboard Young Demos and please
be more than just another activity.
From the Editor
A Few Words of a Kind
. . , p. p. limes
I
e.e.
So far this year I have been told that I
know absolutely nothing about beauty con
tests, football, culture, fraternities or ed
ucation. This makes me feel very humble
but it's obvious that I will never write
about beauty contests,
football, culture, fraterni
ties or education so this
lack of information is not
too great of a handicap.
Speaking of writing, it
is Interesting to note
some of the written bits
that cross my desk. For
example, I have a typed
letter signed by the "Ad
venturer" who, in a note
which qualifies him for
English A, asks: "Have you heard? The
Air Force ROTC slogon (His variation of
slogan) is 'every man is a tiger.' Each
cadet officer has been granted the privi
lege of carrying on the following (routine)
with any freshman or sophomore cadet:
"Cadet Officer: 'Are you a tiger, mis
ter?' "Cadet: 'Yes, sir!
'Cadet Officer: 'Well, then let me hear
you growl!'
"Cadet: 'Gr-rowl-P (if the growl is not
loud enough the cadet officer can then
require the Vadet to growl until the officer
is satisfied."
The "Adventurer" then goes on to speak
of higher education and suggests his let
ter be entitled "Growl Fool." My reac
tion was that he apparently doesn't be
lieve in having a roaring good time.
Other important letters have asked if
I were interested in receiving free sam
ples of a newly developed floor covering,
if I would be interested in attending a na
tional meeting of tool die workers, if I
knew that prices on hot-dipped tin plate
will be increased 35 cents per base box
effect with shipments 12.01 a.m. Nov. 1,
1958, and if I cared to import foreign
jewelry.
A little article on the University's pur
chase of some art pieces has caused a stir
among ardent lovers of the arts. One very
close friend walked up to me swearing
about the manner in which art had been
lightly written about (referring to a re
port of ev ents that occurred at the Regents
meeting Saturday) and how a national in
justice had been done.
When I got back to the fraternity house
that afternoon 1 was asked, "Did he see
you?" "Who?" 1 asked. "There's been
somebody looking for you since yester
day morning. He was here about three
times Sunday and once this morning."
This afternoon a visitor entered my
bumble dwelling with a determined look
on his face and an impressively long type
written letter. The letter, it turned out,
was an attack against those who would
laugh at masterpieces. The visitor finally
dec ided that maybe we shouldn't run the
letter after all, and then walked quietly
out of my office, closing the door with a
green shade that is never pulled down.
That left me all alone with my plaster
bird made by one of my visitor's fellow
students last year. A very realistic bird
who managed to evoke screams from at
least three of the young ladies in the office
when it was first carried in last year.
But soon another visitor came and 1 had
to think of more important matters. It was
a big black fly who played dive-bomber
with me all afternoon until 1 mastered my
anti-bug defense and bombarded him with
a newspaper propelled at jet speed while
he sat cooling his engines on my desk top.
Life is such a conglomeration of im
portant things.
My Weal

"This was the best r a lly
I've seen in four years."
These were the words of a
young lady who should know.

that future

join in t h e Basooo
rally proper."
What she was talking about
in her polite way was that
one way to stop the brawling
that unfortunately goes along
with rallies might be to get
everybody in the rally right
at the start at the Carillon
tower instead of a few trun
dling over to the Union steps
a little ahead of the others to
tear down other early birds'
signs.
Some retarded individuals
seem to have the idea that
smashing down other frater
nities' signs shows house spir
it. To most people it just
show that their pledge ought
to still be in high school.
After an, little tikes, we
were there to show Cornhusk
er spirit, not Delta Alpha
Theta stupidity.
And 1 guess that anyone
who saw last Friday's pre
and post-rally brawls realizes
that at least a few proud, as
inine fraternity men are not
"gentlemen enough to realize
that just because they may
not have the biggest banner
they needn't pull down all the
others."
But, despite all the ridicu
lous, little boy scuffling, the
rally was a great one and the
yell squad, Corn Cobs and
Tassels, and most of all t'te
student body in general de
serve a pat on the back for
a lot of good. Co'-n'v -spirit.
Let's hope it keep uj win
or lose.
Or Woe
basoeo
lady named Brown was at
tacking a proposed program
for the mentally gifted child.
"We frequently hear of spe
cial education for the gifted
child, that program of special
favoritism and privileges for
a class of people at the ex
pense of all men. Hitler also
tried to promote a 'Master
Race.' " So speaks this
wnmai..
She says that she is '"in re
buttal" to Freeman Decker's
remark that most people
think their kids are the smart
est and resent seeing other
youngsters getting special at
tention. Seems to me that
she's proving it.
Could be, Mrs. B., that in
stead of developing a master
race, our educators are final
ly waking up to the fact that
unless we do take advantage
of some too few brilliant
youngster's abilities we are
liable to wake up a subservi
ant people with the Russian
smarties in charge.
The problem at the Univer
sity level is to train teachers
capable of instructing ad
vanced secondary education
level students. I don't think
that methods, courses, or
whatever disguise they are
wearing this year, are the an
swer either. All the methods
in the world won't teach what
the teacher doesnt know.

It was at the funeral of a woman who
had been thoroughly disliked in a rural
community and for cause. With a sharp
ly barbed tongue and a violently explosive
disposition, she henpecked her husband,
drove her children mercilessly and quar
reled with her neighbors. Even the ani
mals on the place wore a hunted look.
The day was sultry, and as the mini
ster's voice droned on the sky grew dark
er. Just as the service ended, the storm
broke furiously. There was a blinding
flash followed closely by a terrific thunder
clap. In the stunned silence a voice was
heard from the back row of the crowded
room: "Waal, she's got there!"
