REPLY TO CONTROVERSY
Esther Gaylord Also Gives
statement to Answer
Council Dispute.
In answer to the recent con
troversy over the conflicting pow
ers of the Associated Women's
Students liurvd and the Student
council two statements have been
received by The Dally Nebraskan
which attempted to straighten out
the tangle. Esther Gaylord, prosi-"
dent of the board, yenerday ad
vanced a plan for the rnrrplatinn
of the activities of the two bodies.
ner plan, printed in the Morn
ing Mall column of The Nebraskan
yesieroay morning, was as fol
lows: bne proposes to have a conn
cil composed of men on the same
plane as the A. W. S. board to
nanaie matters of interest to new
siuuents, just as the A. W. S.
ooard handles the affairs of wo
men.
Equal Power.
The two organizations would be
equal and would have definitely
defined spheres of influence. The
two organizations because of their
equality should have equal repre
sentation on the Student council
wnich would be at the peak of the
triangle and would have supreme
power in matters or interest to all
students.
Miss Gaylord Issued her state
ment because of the proposal of
me oiuoeni council to form a new
constitution. As it stands the coun
cil is endeavoring to gain for it-
sen more powers or student gov
ernment and some of the powers
demanded are in direct conflict
with those of the A. W. S. board.
Sally Pickard's Statement.
Today, Sally Pickard, a mem
ber of the board, issued a state
ment explaining its organization
powers, and activities. The organ
ization feels, she explained, that all
students shoulud know Just what it
is doing and what it has power to
do.
. Miss Pickard's statement fol
lows: "The organization in its en.
tirety has the three-folld aspect of
a legislative, executive, and 1ud -
ciai ooay. Tne legislative part of
the organization is the A. W. S.
council, composed of the presidents
of sororities and organized houses
and headed by the vice president
of the A. W. S. board. The cpun
cil holds monthly meetings to
bring up and discuss problems of
interest to university women.
A. W. S. Board.
' 'The executive body is the A.
W. S. board itself, the members of
which are elected every spring by
women students, mis board gov
erns the university women
through house rules which it
makes and then enforces through
the A, W. S. court. The court Is
composed of the officers of the
board and the other senior candi
dates for president. The board
meets once a week and the court
whenever necssary.
"Specifically, the organization
promotes various affairs in the in
terest of university women.
"The A. W. S. boe.rd has estab
lished and regulates the point sys
tem which determines the number
of activities in which women stu
dents may participate. This system
operates to limit the women who
are inclined to participate in too
many extracurricular activities.
"In the fall the board starts its
annual program with a tea to
which all women in school, and
particularly freshman women, are
Invited. This year the affair took
the form of an All-Activities tea,
at which time the major organiza
tions for women were represented

According to Captain Crlssy

Due to the suport given the Mil

and townspeople, it was decided by
the military department to secure
the best orchestra possible for the
season's first formal and take ad
vantage of the consent of the fac

state bands.
Due to the fact that the sale
price of Military Ball tickets has
been at three dollars per couple for
the pa.t few years, it was decided
by the department to spend most
of the proceeds for music, it being
considered by students as the most
important essential of the party.
