The affair was really very dull.
but what could you expect of a

the funniest diess, and imagine,
shhe carried bridal wreath. Oh,
of coiirse, the altar was banked
with a good deal of it I'm sure
they got it back of Grant Me

looked so pathetically dull escort

The victorious debating team,
accompanied back from Missouri
by the debate instructor. Professor
Fogg, was met at the station by a
large crowd of university students.
About four hundred men parti
cipated in the celebration on the
city etreets. When the train ar
rived, the debaters were greeted
with the college yells, and placed
in a carriage along with Chancel
lor Andrews, Professor Fogg, and
the other victorious teams of the
year.
Amid the flourish of banners
and the din of trumpets and horns
the seniors secretly departed yes
terday for Woodlawn to celebrate
Sneak day. About 9 o'clock the
seniors assembled at the Burling
ton station, where they had char
tered a train to take them to the
picnic grounds. At noon the sen
iors sat down to an "elegant" din
ner, which had been prepared by
the young ladies of the class. The
class also elected a May queen, the
young lady selected for the honor
being the coed who had had charge
of the food. (Which proves that
the way to a man's heart is his

nicnic. Each member of the class
' was excused for the day in order

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'.

dance floor was to occupy the

university band was to furnish

a well known orchestra was to re
place it. Confetti, serpentine, bal

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.
