BIG SISTER BOARD
BEGINS ACTIVITIES
Coeds Will Be Assigned
Freshmen Proteges
This Week.
PLAN CHURCH SUNDAY
Big Sister board of the univers
ity Is beginning its year's activities
by trying to secure big sisters for
all the new girls in the school who
desire them. Members of the board
have been notifying already ini
tiated big sisters of last spring and
supplying them with the names of
; their prospective little sisters.
According to Charlotte Joyce,
president of the board, when a big
sister is notified, she should take
care to get her little sister's name
and telephone number and call her
some time this week. "It is during
these first two weeks that new
girls really need and would appre
ciate the advice and interest of an
experienced girl, and to that end.
we are urging all big sisters to get
in touch with their little sisters and
try to meet them and assist them
with any problems.
"A go-to-church Sunday when
all big sisters will take their little
sisters to the church of their pref
erence Is being planned for some
Sunday in the near future, but
until that general get-together is
arranged, many freshmen are
being daily submitted to a great
many bewildering circumstances
which older girls can help to un
tangle," she stated.
Also numbered among the ac
tivities of the board are several
dinners and parties. It is hoped,
according to board members, that
big sisters will take an active in
terest in their little sisters; "the
big sister movement is a worthy
one and if enthusiastically and
whole-heartedly supported is a
wonderful enterprise," stated one
board member
"We are hoping." continued Miss
Joyce, "that no little sister will
have to be disappointed by not
hearing from her big sister. By the
end of the week, we expect to have
all big sisters notified, and would
like. In turn, for them to call their
little sisters. Should any new girl
who has not expressed a desire for
a big sister like one, she may leave
her name in the Y. W. C. A. office
at Ellen Smith hall, and we will see
that she gets one. If any big sis
ter has forgotten the name as
signed her, she may find it out by
calling any member of the board,"
she concluded.

Stating More Freedom
Needed on Campus.
fniversity of Nebraska students
like their humor.
This has been amply shown by
the degree of interest which baa
been manifest the last few days
with regard to the resurrection of
the now defunct Awgwan. former
official fun magann
The movement, started after Dr.
C. 11. Oldfather. new member of
the publication board who an
nounced his attitude on the rein
statement of the humor sheet, has
thus far spread to the political
parties on the campus.
One of the factions, the Yellow
Jackets, last spring included tht
possible return of the Awgwan as
one of its planks In the platform
when Student council members
were elected. Whether the Student
council will have any power In
getting the magaiine back is a
question, yet the yellow jackets
claim their members will be all set
to support any such legislation.
Gomen Promises.
Neal S Gomon. Norfolk, presi
dent of the yellow jackets, stated
Tuesday that his faction would glva
whole hearted support to the ven
ture. The group is scheduled to
meet for the first time this school
year some time in the near future.
Although the political factions
on the campus have in the past
been accused of dilly dallying with
editors on the Awgwan. during its
days of freedom, Gomon gives full
assurances that his group will
have a "hands off policy In tfikt
regard.
"What the faction is principally
interested in." states the minority
fraternity leader, "is to get the
magazine back on the campus. We
feel there is a definite place for
such a thing at the University of
Nebraska and therefore are trying
all in our power to see its return."
Others Will Support.
The other two factions, the blue
shirts and the barbs, said nothing
in their sping platforms about the
Awgwan. Yet both this year are
endorsing the movement and win
give suppore where support can be
given, their leaders stated.
Alan G. Williams, Lincoln, mili
tant barb captain, is especially de
sirous of seeing the return of the
Awgwan for he says the campus
needs "more freedom of speech as
that advocated by Dr. Oldfather."
Stanley Day. Oshkosh. president
of the blue shirts, was not quite so
strong in his sentiments for the
comic magazine, but stated that
the faction would pledge its influ
ence wherever it could in the mat
ter. RUSSELL SAYS RUSH
