THOUGH It is not generally known, each organiza
tion is required to keep ail its funds in the stu
'.;nt activities office at the Coliseum. Many treas
urers do not even know of this "student bank."
Others do not realize that their organization's funds
, met be deposited there. Still others find it easy to
. vade the rule.
Today there are an undetermined but fairly large
number of campus organizations which do not use
the student bank system at all. Many others have
f counts there but of late have neglected to deposit
their money at this office. This situation needs
remedying at once.
The chief difficulty in maintaining the student
bank is found to be in keeping all officers informed
of the necessity of depositing funds at the student ac
tivities office. This is due to the large turnover in or
ganization officers every semester and their relative
instability. Some plan for keeping tab on the ever
changing group of treasurers which handles thou
sands of dollars of the students' money annually
should be, perfected.
a
ASA scheme which may have flaws uncovered but
whteh will better the existing situation, The Ne
braskan suggests the following:
1. At the beginning of each semester, each
organization must file the name, address rikJ
telephone number of its treasurer and faculty
adviser or sponsor at the student activities of
fice. Notice of this requirement should be pub
lished in The Nebraskan in order that the offi
cers will not forget.
2. After two weeks, organizations which
failed to file names of their officers and advis
ers would be listed in the columns of The Ne
braakan. This notice would serve as a warning.
5. Continued negligence to report to the ac
tivities office would result in turning the names
of these organizations over to the Student coun
cil, which would have a committee to investigate
that group and report the cause ot its failure to
comply with the rule.
4. Failure of the council to secure the co
operation of these organizations would be
grounds for revoking their constitutions. This
power is now within the authority of the coun
cil. 5. At the end of each semester, the advise!
of the organization would secure an account ol
expenditures and deposits from the student ac
tivities office. This would serve as a protection
to and a check on the student treasurer of each
organization.
Some means of getting every student organiza
tion actively participating in this financial system
is necessary if it is to be entirely success'ul. The
Student council would do well to consider ways of
dealing with this problem which will not be an
swered until a method of acquiring unanimous co
operation is discovered.

UNIVERSITY OF INDIANA.
Bloomington -A plan whereby sen
iors having a high scholastic stand
ing would be allowed unlimited
cuts in any of their courses, was
presented to the faculty investi
gating group of the Pennsylvania
State college by the student coun
cil recently.
Under the system proposed by
the student council the cutting
privilege would be extended to all
seniors with an average of approx
imately 1.7. which would include
the upper quarter of the senior
class. The committee's statement
declared that seniors receiving the
privilege should be the Judge as to
how many cuts they should take.

"SOME DAY "
DTJRNING the anti-knock gasoline all day and the
midnight oil all evening leaves the average univer
sity student little time in which to read good litera
ture. He finds bis time taken up by classes, library
e.sions, work, card playing, caking and other pas
timea, both good and bad.
Delving into the cream of the world's writing is
a worthwhile supplement to collegiate training. This
tributary of the educational stream, however, is not
frequenf.d. Most individuals, hard pressed for time,
relegata literary pursuits to the hazy future.
"When I get out of school," the student promise,
himself, "I'm going to read good books." Why is
thi. -ihtir thlrnt not satisfied in university? An
TT IS SAID of European stu
1 dents that they are extremely
liberal and that European colleges
are hotbeds of revolution. But
that can't apply to all students.
American students are extreme
conservatives, and our colleges
are far from being hotbeds. It's
too bad. In our own opinion,
students should be radical. Stu

'
A point system would be feasible. The landscape
architect would award points on the basis of each
team in effort over the year. The Athletic depart
ment would award points as to how each team con
tributed to Nebraska spirit and pep through the
year. The winning team might be entertained as
guests of all the others in a monster rally banquet
at the end of the football season, or given other sat
isfying recognition. Awards, judges, systems of
points, supervision, would all be matters for the cen
tral committee to decide.
The plan could work if we would. There Is
nothing to condemn it save that there may be no
human means mighty enough to make this campus
look like something. But if a parking program at
Nebraska is possible, this is the one that should
please the deans, the regents, and the rest of us
most, as being public spirited, cheap, and quick.
