Nebraska's climate breeds the sturdiest of physical manhood. Nebraska industries, practically all carried on in the open air, build up that physical manhood to a remarkable degree. Why should not our state be supreme in every phase of athletic competition? Give us the equipment, the coaches and the proper spirit, and success is a foregone conclusion.

I thought this was an interesting read.
