Factions Holding Meetings
As Second Semester
Vote Approaches.
MILITARY ISSUE QUIET
Fate of New Student Council
Constitution Still Is
Unknown.
BY THE OBSERVER.
With second semester elections
only twelve days away, a new stu
dent council constitution resting in
the hands of a faculty sub-committee,
and the compulsory military
drill issue brewing with strange
quietness there is much to think
about in the line of things politi
cal. Both campus factions, the Yel
low Jackets and Blue Shirts alike,
having disposed of Interfratemity
council elections, have turned their
eyes to the coming campaign.
Secret meetings are Jrequtnt end
the proverbial pot is seething with
traditional fervor.
The Biue Shirts, possibly a hit
confident in view of their sweep
ing success in the fall battle t the
polls, will undoubtedly attempt to
duplicate.
Will Attempt Comeback.
Opposition to this attempt, how
ever will not be lacking for the
Yellow Jackets, naturally imbued
with the spirit of revenge, will at
tempt a comeback. This is not
entirely impossible either, in view
of their showing last spring. They
will have a new argument in their
favor which may have a slight
psychological effect they lived up
to a campaign pledge and sub
scribed the number of new Awg
wans which they pledged in the
fall.
As for the barb vote and cam
paign, that is always a doubtful
element. The non-fraternity rep
resentation on hf campus easily
outnumbers tie strength of either
faction. The big barb problem lies
in effecting an organization which
will bring their representatives to
the ballot box. If this can be ac
complished, which is unlikely at

Final approval of this student

HOUSE WILL VOTE TODAY
Five Others Sign Resolution
After Move by Whited
Tabled Tuesday.
Agitation in the state legisla
ture for a university investigation
yesterday was given another prod
when Dr. Claire E. Owens, fem
inine legislator in the house, pro
posed a legislative investigation of
the administrative conduct and af
fairs of the I'niversity of Ne
braska and teacher's college.
The resolution sponsored by Dr.
Owens in conjunction with five
other representatives is the second
legislative demand for a university
probe. The first resolution relat
ing to a quizz of university condi
tions was presented last Tuesday,
by Whited of Douglas county, who
asked that Anton Jensen, critic of
university management, and Chan
cellor Burnett appear before the
house to determine the veracity of
Jensen's charges. Whited's resolu
tion was tabled.
Asks Immediate Action.
Dr. Owens, in her resolution,
requested immediate art ion and a
record vote. Objection was raised
to consideration at the time and
Speaker Kier explained that under
the rules it must go over one day
unless the house, by sixty affirma
tive votes, should override the
rule. The resolution's chief spon
sor did not press the request fur
ther but later declared that when
it comes up today she will ask for
a roll call.
The introductory list for the lat
est investigation resolution in
cludes the following: Dr. Claire-E.
Owen. Exeter: John Washington
Porter. Boone: W. F. Crozier. O.
ce4a: Walter M. Burr. Adams: all
democrats, and George M. Bivns.
Adams: Dr. J. Morrow. Seward:

statements was shown when rep

which was Ved. The most re
