Error in Wednesday Paper
Stated Incorporation
Question Settled.
Question of the status as a
corporation of Kappa Psi, profes
sional pharmacy fraternity, Is to
be ruled upon by the municipal
court of Lincoln, according to
Wilson and Landon, attorneys
representing Kappa Psl in their
legal Investigation. The state
ment appearing in Wednesday's
Nebraskan. that The articles of
incorporation were not legally
filed." was inaccurate, since the
question baa not yet been set
tled. Kappa Psl was forced to close
Its doors, according to the chap
ter steward, because pharmacy
college male enrollment was not
large enough to support a pro
fessional fraternity. Some time
ago the Lincoln chapter began
pledging men outside of phar
macy college, but on threat of
having their charter retracted,
were forced to confine their
membership to the professional
group once more.
Whether the organization will
continue aa a professional fra
ternity without a chapter house
ia aa yet uncertain.

DOROTHY
ILVIS
DEFENDS A. V. S.
Coed Declares Her Views
Were Misinterpreted in
Story Yesterday.
PANHELLENIC RULE USED
Board Avoids Any Definite
Action But Not to Its
Discredit-Silvis.
Defending the A.' W. S board
stand on the matter of coed smok
ing regulation, Miss Dorothy Sil
via stated that her views on the
question had been misinterpreted
in an interview printed yesterday.
"While it Is true that the A. W.
S. board is utilizing the national
Panhelienic rule to avoid the ne
cessity of taking a definite stand
upon the matter one way or the
other, this does not necessarily
discredit the board in any way,"
Miss Silvls said.
Rules Justified.
"Up to the present, at least, the
members have in my opinion been
justified in avoiding any more di
rect ruling in the matter, on ac
count of public opinion on the
topic. The idea that the A. W. S.
board or Nebraska authorities
have taken a stand against coed
smoking in sororities or dormitor
ies is "hokum." The fact that they
have refused to meddle, however,
seems thus far justifiable.
"What the future may bring is
another question. Perhaps condi
tions are changing, and perhaps it
may be time now for the board to
take such a stand. That I 'cannot
say."
Thirty Opinions Received.
Opinions from offiejata--of ap
proximately thirty schools, to
which the "dean of men sent ques
tions regarding the situation, and
specifically questions upon the at
titude of the public on the topic,
vary from one extreme to the
other. A fair share of the institu
tions were "on the fence."
Chicago Uni Reports.
University of Chicago officials
reported no rules . on women's
I smoking, but the quarters in which
women may or may not smoke are
restricted by custom. Women may
smoke in their own rooms as they
like.
The question on public opinion
was answered thus:
"You speak of the reaction of
our constituency. The only protest
nc-ninftt our handltnir of the matter 1
that has come to cir attention has

Professor Speaks Before
University League of
Women Voters.
' Explaining the issues in the
coming election. Dr. John P. Scn
ning of the political science de
partment addressed the University
League of Women Voters oft
Thursday afternoon in Ellen Smith
hall. Various positions and their
terms were" given.
The leading party issues are the
tarif question, the issue of the
farm board, the commodity of pro
duce and trade point and the ques
tion of unemployment, he said. Ac
cording to Dr. Scnning, the real
h?3-ie, however," is" between tfi;
party out and the party in. Each
are pleading for power.
Predicts No Economic Change.
"In my opinion the election will
have absolutely no material effect
on the economic conditions and un
employment." declared Dr. Senn
ing. "People have more confidence
in the republicans than the demo
cra?s as a general rule because in
their minds they asociate uncer
tainty with the democratic major
ity." "Are we going to sustain the
president in his policies or are we
goirrg to bring a reduced majority
in the house'" is a leading ques
tion in election, stated Dr. Senn
ing. If the majority is reduced ft
will mean that we have grown
luk warm toward the president.
