What Is Thanksgiving?
For many, Thanksgiving is a time of getting out of
school, of seeing the old high school buddies, of catching up
on school work, of eating pumpkin pie and turkey to the
bursting point.
But way back when, Thanksgiving was a time of giving
thanks to God for all good things. It was a day especially
set aside.
Some feel that Thanksgiving is now the most religious
holiday of the year, because Christmas and Easter have
become so commercialized.
There is much a student of this University can be
thankful for:
The privilege of being a student.
The fact that we do have a vacation, that we may join
with old friends, that we have school work to catch up on.
Persons in the past would have given their eyetooth for the
many chances for an education that we now abuse.
That we live in a state such as Nebraska, where the
beauties of God are so easily accessible. A drive through
the country this Fall reveals a beautiful scene a scene
artists have been trying to duplicate for years and cannot
quite catch.
That we have the privilege of thanking God, loudly,
joyfully, in any manner we wish, rather than being told
that we may not participate in public worship, that God
is not a vital power in our lives, that only the government
is the vital power.
That we have a family to go home to. That that family
will have the means to serve pumpkin pie and turkey.
The Daily Nebraskan gives thanks for its readers.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING.
Please Return
Just about everything that can be said has been said
on the topic of traffic safety, but the fact still remains
traffic fatalities are rising and rising, and rising.
The University of Nebraska is composed of students
good students, had students, indifferent students, activity
minded students, apathetic students, engineering students,
agriculture students, undeclared students, all kinds of
students.
But each of these students is precious. Yes, even you
are precious. Precious to someone to parents, to instruc
tors, to the nation.
You, your parents, the University, the nation cannot
afford to lose you.
You are the one upon whom your future lies. You are
the one that will determine whether or not you will return
next Monday. You are the one that must be careful.
The Daily Nebraskan does not want to print a story
Monday reporting the death on one of its precious readers.

Until They Fall
Nebraska won the Big 8
Championship!
Nebraska won a Cotton
Bowl bid!
Nebraska was defeated
Saturday.
Yeah, the team really let
the school down. Just when
we were going good and
were rated nationally they
got beat. Some team!
Everybody loves a win
ner, until the winner falls.
There was an airport ral
ly Saturday night.
So what? Why should I
have gone? They got beat
didn't they? They didn't de
serve a big welcome. They
let us down. Who all was
there?
Oh, the players' and
coaches' families, some high
school kids and a few Uni
versity students. No sing
ing, or yelling, though.
So, what do you expect
for a loser?
A fine team was defeated
in a hard-fought game.
Everybody loves a win
ner, until the winner falls.

Thanks, Devine
Dear Coach Dan Devine,
On behalf of the students
of the University of Ne
braska I would like to thank
you for enabling us to be
the sole possessers of the
Eig Eight Championship
this year.
It was very thoughtful of
you to beat Kansas last
weekend so that we did not
have to share the champion
ship with them.
But even more we appre
ciate you tieing with the
University of Oklahoma
earlier in the season (thus
saving us the humility of
sharing our championship
with the school that gave
us our only defeat of the
season).
We realize that you did
not do these noble deeds
just for the betterment of
our position in the Big Eight
Conference. But I am con
vinced that this was an
underlying motive, since
your team has always had
so much respect for ours
and there is such a warm
friendship between the
schools.
From the depths of our
hearts we thank you for
your cooperation in making
this such a successful year
for us and we are sure that
you shall continue to serve
us in the future as well as
you did this year.

There comes a time dur
ing his career when every
student feels he must speak
out upon some issue of vi
tal concern to his peers. I
refer, as you all know, to
the terrible toll which
Thanksgiving, Christmas,
and New Year's Day take
upon the turkey population
oi the United States
America.
The mass murderine
these innocent zoological
specimens within this year
ly six week period amounts
to little less than an ethno
cide. This dire crime is n o t
perpetrated in Lincoln, but
as true crusaders, we must
not let this insignificant fact
stop our rabid and unre
lenting desire to influence
By John Lonnquist
everyone and everything
everywhere. We should not
become so engrossed in our
scholastic endeavors, that
we cannot devote thirty or
forty hours a week to fur
thering our cause in a club
I'm organizing. It will be
known as Students for Not
Cooking Turkeys, better
recognized as the SNCT.
We will not protest tur
key murdering in this gen
eral area, since there is
little turkey murdering in
this general area, but w i 1 1
carry out long distance
economic disaster attempts
on those who practice
perennial turkecide.
Turkey lovers unite! Eat
peanut butter and jelly
sandwiches on Tahnksgiving
Day. .

Want Ads
By Frank Partscli
Having watched the Co
lossus of the North meet its
Waterloo in the notorious
Snakepit this weekend, and
having thought over t h e
strange events preceding
and following the upset, I
was particularly struck by
a trend upon which I would
like to enlarge.
It was the remarkable
amount of spontaneous spir
it. No, gentle reader, this
was not school spirit; it
was not a desire to smash
the Sooners right out of
Reptalia; it was not a
yearning for our first un
defeated football season
since Grandpa was trying
to work his wireless. The
conference title (or part of
it) was already wrapped in
a little package tied with
an orange ribbon and dec
orated with cotton balls.
Why get excited about
anything then? The only
spirit on this campus grew
from an unfounded rumor
that a victory would mean
no classes this week.
An earlier Closet Case
concerning t h e sick at
titudes toward intellectual
ism at this place attracted
comments from some 80
students and faculty mem
bers. Three of these com
ments were against what I
had written.
I like two days off as
well as anyone, but I could
see no justification to de
prive the entire student
body of lectures and labs
they already paid for just
because of the physical
might of half a hundred
mercenaries.
To anyone wanting h i s
vacation extended badly
enough to endure the men
tal anguish of last year, I
can only say . . . there
isn't too much to say.
A more appropriate
means of enthusiasm would
be a post season rally
thanking the team for their
efforts rather than demand
ing victory.
No one would come to the
rally, though. The time for
demanding would be past
and the time for apprecia
tion, as in everything else,
would be overlooked.
The fallacy I see in the
whole aborted mess is that,
assuming we have already
sold the rest of our pride
down the river, and assum
ing we base our school
pride solely on the per-,
formance of Bob's Boys,
how can we ignore them
so completely?
I dredged around the
cobwebs of the Closet, how
ever, and found an answer:
We don't much give a hit
for anyone or anything but
ourselves.
This week especially
would seem to be a good
time to reevaluate these
childish self-preoccupations
and gain a broader knowl
edge of the University com
munity; after all, life has
more to offer than luxury,
and the student should re
volve around the Univer
sity, instead of expecting
the University to be cen
tered on his whims.
