And upon catching up with them, she turned her head, and saw her erst while companion going in the op posite direction with a group of girls. "Honestly, that girl I was talk ing to is the dumbest thing. She thinks her sorority is one of the Big Four, and anyone knows it never was even Big' Twenty.

An editorial vociferously panned sororities and fraternities for teaching their own songs instead of university songs. It was de clared that the average Cornhusk er knew only the "Chant" and the "Cornhusker" song, while there was a whole volume of Nebraska songs which never found expres sion. It was further affirmed that the burden of' teaching Nebraska melodies rested with the organ ized societies. I t'.

I INTERESTED in constitutions to day? Probably not. but you really ought to be, because, after ; all, equal representation of women 1 with men in a body that really has some coercive power is something. What coercive power does the Stu- I dent council have? That's the joke 'or rather that has been the joke. The Student council hasn't had any i power, coercive or otherwise, un less it is the making and unmak ing of Innocents and Mortar Boards via the prom committee i method. j But we've all pitied the council : for its weakness or laughed at it for the same reason. And most of I us have thought that something ought to be done about the situa tion. Now we can help do some thing about it by voting for it at the polls today. Strongly favor able student opinion expressed in a student referendum gave us fif teen extra minutes on date nights. Another proof of strong sentiment will doubtless put the constitution on its feet. "THE fellows were prptty decent about voting for our fifteen minutes, weren't they? (After all, they were the ones who fought the cloak room battles and paid a lot of the late fines at houses.) Seems as though we might be decent enough to vote for their constitu tion. It oughtn't to be theirs any more than ours. It is'nt going to be their council any more than ours if we help vote that document through. (After all. we ought to be ready to give ourselves a break, just as the fellows were.) So let's get interested in a constitution to daylong enough to waddle over to the Temple and vote for it. JOW that we've done our duty by the constitution, we can start rambling again. Ye Campus Coppe has something new to offer in political styles. (We heard the word palatial once too, That gave us the idea.) First the force gave Yee Coppe a new shirt a nice flannel one. But they forgot to give him a hat. So he was only about half up to the minute. Then they finally came through with one of those new, wrinkle top venti- more than ours. It isn't going to be is resplendent in a whole new out fit. (They didn't forget to give him a new book of tickets.) It might interest some of these beautiful, handsome well dressed, popular people, who would there fore be immune, and maybe others, to know that we have received a large number of volunteer votes as to the homliest man and the most unpopular woman on the campus. Nobody says anything about the most unpopular men and the hom liest women. Suppose it is because of a scarcity of candidates or maybe an abundance.

The presidents and secretaries of ao- rinh and Home Kconomlcs club, together with faculty mem bers, also serves on the committee. Members of Ag club will ballot for their four officers, president, vice president, secretary and treas urer, during next Tuesday's po litical race. Altho there have usu ally been only two factions com peting for these positions in the past, the barb vote being split, or scattered, it is believed that a third party will take active part this spring. The Barb party is re ported to have set up a complete slate during a recent political cau cus on the Aar camDus. One man and one woman will be chosen to fill the positions of sen ior representative at large on the Ag executive board. Candidates for these positions must be juniors at the time of filing. The fact that the president and secretary of Ag club automatically become new members of the executive board will probably add to the zest of the coming vote getting contest. A senior man and a senior wo man will be elected to serve on the publication board which chooses the staff of the Cornhusker Coun tryman, the college of agriculture magazine. These candidates must also be juniors at the time of the filing. A pretty film actress resented the statement by a fundamentalist divine that "the modern girl is fast."
