NEW ARMY BILL
AFFECTS CADETS
The new Army Reorganization bill
contains many provisions of interest
to cadets in state universities. Great
er importance is placed in the work
and more remuneration is provided
for by the government.
The preamble to the bill divides
the army of the United States into
the regular army, the volunteer army,
the reserve officers' training corps,
the enlisted reserve corps and the
national guard. Of these divisions,
the one we are primarily interested
in is the organization designated as
the reserve officers training corps.
In order to thoroughly realize the
purposes of military training in state
institutions, it is necessary to grasp
the purpose of the drafters of this
bill in providing the reserve officers'
training corps. The purpose is not to
instruct the men as soldiers merely,
but to provide a body of men capable
of acting in the capacity of officers of
volunteer armies. By the bill, the
president is empowered to appoint
not to exceed 5,000 men, graduates
of a four-year course of military
training, as second lieutenants, to
serve a period of ten years.
Another section of the bill of spe
cial interest is the one providing for
all cadets remaining in the corps be
yond the two years of required work.
It states that such members of the
corps as are selected by the presi
dent of the institution and its profes
sors of military science and tactics
to continue the work, and who de
vote five hours per week and take
certain courses in camp training, will
be furnished "with commutation of
subsistence at such rate, not exceed
ing the cost of garrison ration pre
scribed for the army as may be fixed
by the secretary of war."
The secretary of war is authorized
to maintain camps for the reserve
officers' training corps no camps to
be maintained longer than six weeks
with the expense of transportation
and subsistence met by the United
States so far as appropriations will
permit.
It may reasonably be expected that
the provisions incorporated in this
bill will add materially to the serious
ness of military work at the univer
sity. As Mr. Hay, the chairman of
the committee on military affairs,
stated in submitting the report, "the
committee on military affairs has had
under consideration a bill to increase
the efficiency of the military estab
lishment of the United States." It
is not to be doubted that the bill
will perform its purpose.

RECOMMENDS NEW
PLEDGING RULES
(Continued from page 1)
and to the fraternities of the coun
cil. V
For the first semester of 1916-17
the rules which have hitherto gov
erned rushing and pledging shall ap
ply. Believed Regents Will Adopt
It is believed that the regents will
adopt the recommendations present
ed by the interfraternity council. It
is pointed out by members of the
fraternities that the newer rules real
ly accomplish what the sophomore
pledging rule aims to do, but appar
ently does not, that is, keep up the
fraternity scholarship as a whole. The
newer recommendations will at once
provide an incentive for all fraterni
ties to keep their scholarship stand
ing high: will offer an Inducement to
those whose standing is low.to raise
It. and will act as a stimulus to those
whose standing is high to keep. It
there.
Prof. P. M. Buck, Jr., was unani
mously re-elected chairman of the in
terfraternity council for next year.
Verne Hedge was re-elected vice pres
ident, who is by the constitution an
alumnus, and Robert Proud fit, Delta
Chi, was elected secretary.
The council unanimously adopted
a resolution presented by the active
members, that every incoming chap
ter of a fraternity be required to have
a residence of two years before be
ing admitted to the council.
Acacia Admitted to Council
Acacia was elected to membership
in the council. The application of Pi
Kappa Phi was laid over for one year.
This fraternity was not chartered un
til this school year.
The rule previously adopted by
each of the fraternities acting individ
ually, that after September 1, 1919,
no student coming to the university
belonging to a high school fraternity
be initiated into a fraternity in Ne
braska university, was adopted by the
council and made a part of its rules.
Notification of this ruling will be
sent to every high school in the state.
A standing committee to co-operate
with the chancellor on admission of
new fraternities was appointed, to
consist of Verne Hedge, Dean O. V. P,
Stout and Robert Proudfit.
Two student members of the execu
tive board of the council were elect
ed: John Stoddart, Beta Theta Pi,
and Henry W. Campbell, Kappa
Sigma.

SCENES ON CAMPUS

means," complained one actor, "yes
terday after a hard day's work we
were innocently pinched and had to
submit to various humiliations when
we were so tired that we could hardly
stand. We got to bed at 11:30 thai
night and were hustled out at 4
o'clock today, as the director is desir
ous to get all the scenes done in
Lincoln today. Se we're all very
sleepy, but have to hustlo."
All the same, the camera man is
"pulling" down twenty-five hard
"plunks" for every day, rain or
shine. So is the director.
The play was written by Chandler
Trimble, '14, and won the $100 prize
offered by t he World-Herald. Mr.
Trimble, who is practicing law in
Omaha, got his training as ar author
in Prof. R. D. Scott's class in play
writing when he was a student at
the university here three years ago.
In the play, a Nebraska youth at
tending the University of Nebraska,
meets here the girl of fiis dreams.
Later he makes-a success of busi
ness in Omaha.
