Hello day is to be a new tradition on the Nebraska campus if ideas of the A. W. S. board and other groups work out. The idea was conceived at the Detroit convention of the A. W. S. board this summer. It is a new venture on the part of the upper classmen to promote and se cure a better feeling of friendship and co-operation among the fresh men. All upper classmen are asked to say "hello"' to all freshmen wear ing green buttons or scarlet and cream caps on that day, and the freshmen are asked to conform to the regulations set for them. A. W. S. Board Inagurates. The day is being made possible by the freshman activity branch of the A. W. S. board of which Mar garet Upson is chairman. The idea is being backed by A. W. S., Mortar Board, and the Innocents society. Jean Rathburn, Mortar Board bead, stated last night that that organization was heartily in ac cord with the plan, and that the group felt it would go a long way to bring back a friendly spirit on the campus and to get away from the clique idea. Richard Dexereaux. .president of the Innocents Society, also said last night that the senior men's honorary would help push the project. He said that he felt it to be an excellent plan for the unity of spirit so much needed at Ne braska. "It is one of the duties of the Innocents society to sponsor school spirit and student loyalty to the institution. "There can be no loyalty to school until we have loyalty to schoolmates," he said.
