Pleasure, a Gift From A. S. U. O.
rpHE first of the series of five concerts to be presented in
"*■ McArthur court this winter under the auspices of the Asso
ciated Students will occur tonight. Guy Maier and Lee Pattison,
internationally eminent as masters of two-piano music, are the
artists of the evening.
In view of the $10,000 grant recently awarded our University
for the study of the place of mu“ic and the arts in a liberal
education, the reaction of the student body to these profes
sional concerts which they may attend is peculiarly significant.
The research to be made into musical education under this grant
will center about the question of whether musical appreciation
can be developed in a student by academic education and whether
appreciation of music so acquired can favorably affect the in
tellectual keenness and cultural understanding of the student
in other fields of life. ,
Whatever the answer to these questions may he, the main
appeal of fine music to the student still lies in the pure enjoy
ment, sensual and aesthetic, whicn he may derive from the hear
ing of it. The richest life is the one which has opened the
most avenues for the reception of pleasure, and he whose mind
is closed, eiiher by disinterest, unfamiliarity, or prejudice against
the enjoyment of the finest music has made his life more meager
than it might otherwise be.
To those who do not study ihe theory of music, the best
way of learning to enjoy it is to lake advantage of every oppor
tunity to hear it. The A. S. U. O. concerts, which offer every
student a chance to hear some of the greatest musicians of
the age without paying the almost prohibitive admission price
which ordinarily is associated with their concerts, provide an
opportunity that should not be overlooked.
More About Rallies
T TNTIL the greatness of the university is no longer measured
by the power of its football team students will play rah
rah, gallop down streets, and cheer for victory.
It seems that the Wisconsin Daily Cardinal might possibly
be one of the leaders in this direction when they point disap
provingly at schools who literally push their football teams over
the goal lines by rally stampedes. The Oregon State Barometer
quite logically answers for the present situation, but perhaps
does not fully account for the University of Wisconsin’s tendency.
We speak of rallies as demonstrations of the intense backing
anil support which is given to the coach and his men. Such
displays of spirit bring home with ringing clarity the fact that '
students want them to win. This point cannot be questioned.
It would be hard to picture a victory for a tekm of men who
had lott a campus drab and listless. We can't imagine a win
ning football team whose coach spends the half intermission
eating a hot dog.
An immense amount of interest in football is being nationally
shown. No one can tell exactly how long the public will support
it maybe ten years maybe more. As Jong as it holds the
place it does among educational institutions, schools will rally,
money will be spent, and preppers will hold a subconscious favor
for the one with the strongest team.
The Daily Nebraskan comments on the controversy between
the Oregon State Barometer and the Daily Cardinal and asserts,
somewhat to our approval, that rallies are intensely juvenile.
Yet, show us a flock of grown-ups that doesn't like to hey-hey
Occasionally.
Nevertheless, this student fun will herald a stronger univer
sity or college until the athletic grip has released the great
public.
Hitting at their university through the "campus cop," the
Daily mini has objected to the action of the officer when he
stopped an innocent little game of touch football which was
progressing on one Sunday morning. Tennis and golf are per
mitted, state.1 the Illini, but the paper asks why there should
be discrimination against touch football. We, too, believe the
"cop" enjoyed the assertion of his authority and scattered the
would-be grid stars to see them run.

Students Teaching Over
Holidays Must Tell Dean
Those students who are practice
teaching during the first part of
the Christmas holidays, are asked
to make arrangements with the
dean of women as to a place to
stay, it was announced from the
office of the dean yesterday.
The city schools do not close un

ers will have to stay over until
that time. As most of the living
organizations will be closed, they
will have to make special arrange

SATURDAY CLASSES
FAILURE, IS BELIEF
(Contvniiea from Page One)
cause a class on Saturday morning
disrupts the whole day. The orig
inal aim was to relieve the stress
an buildings and I believe that they
have partially accomplished their
aim. but on the whole my attitude
is one of disfavor toward them,”
he concluded.
Saturday classes have been elim
inated in the department of biol
ogy, according to Dr. Harry B. Yo
com, professor of zoology, because
they conflict too much with other
things.
"The big football games on Sat
urday in Portland take away a
number of students, and Home
coming and and similar events ac
count for about three Saturday
classes a term, or about one-third
of them. For that reason we have
eliminated them."
Not all of the faculty believe in
the failure of Saturday classes. An
drew Fish, associate professor of
history, is of the opinion that they
are succeeding. He stated that he
believes that they achieve their
aim and are a good thing, but did
not comment on the Caswell sur
vey.
