Balloting on Second Term
Officers Scheduled
For Feb. 16.
GREEKS TO NAME HEADS
Interfraternity Posts Will
Be Filled at Meeting
Tuesday Night.
By THE OBSERVER.
Campus politics Is again a sub
ject of major Importance with the
Student council announcement that
second semester filings for elective
positions must be made by Friday
afternoon. Another political plum
which Is ready to pick is the slate
of offices which will be chosen at
the Interfraternity council meeting
tonight.
As a general rule It is unsafe to
make predictions of any sort in
reference to political affairs at Ne
braska. The unexpected so often
happens. One is not stretching his
Imagination a great deal however,
when he says that the leader of the
Interfraternity council for the
coming year will be a Blue Shirt.
From a logical point of view it Is
only natural that the president of
this group should be a Blue Shirt.
The majority of fraternities repre
sented there are members of that
faction and they can hardly be
blamed from picking a leader of
their own stripe.
Watch Faction Threat.
With reference to the second se
mester election, which will be held
just one week from today at the
Temple polls, there is a matter for
speculation. The chief Issue is
whether Yellow Jackets and Barbs
will back-track from their stand
of last fall when they declared
class offices useless and declined
to present slates. Consequently the
Blue Shirts took the election with
out competition and Russell Mou
sel, Beta Theta Pi, Hastings; Phil
lip Brownell, Delta Upsilon, Lin

POPULAR MAN TO
BE PRESENTED AT
LEAP YEAR PARTY
Groups Vote for Four From
Which One Is Chosen
For the Honor.
IDENTITY KEPT SECRET
Idea Innovation on Campus;
Sponsors Say Carries
Out Party Motif.
Determining to make the occa
sion of the Leap Year party,
scheduled for Feb. 20, truly an
event in which His Honor The
Man is king for an evening, mem
bers of Mortar Board, sponsors of
the affair yesterday announced
plans for the election of the most
popular man on the Nebraska
campus.
To this end and in an attempt
to get the sentiment of coeds on
the question sororities were last
night requested to vote on those
four men whom the group thought
best deserving of the title. The
man polling the highest number
of votes will be declared elected to
the honor, but his identity will be
kept secret until the night of the
party when he will be presented.
Declaring that the group hoped
that the election would in no way
be considered lightly, a statement
from Mortar Board reads: "It is
the hope of Mortar Board that
men on the campus will look upon
the election as truly worthy as
similar honors each year conferred
upon women. It is as much an
honor to a man to be held high in
the estimation of the majority of
women for his qualities of person
ality as it is for a woman to hold
that position of honor with the
majority of men. While the idea
is an innovation, we feel that it
carries out the spirit of the entire
party motif. The women are very
willing that the most popular man
about the campus be recognized
as such, and we hope that the men
will be similarly inclined toward
the idea."
Tassels and members of Mortar
Board report great success with
ticket sales, and more than seven
hundred couples are expected to
attend the affair which will be
held in the coliseum. Chaperones,
as previously announced, will be
Dean Amanda H. Heppner, Miss
Mable Lee, Miss Elsie Ford Piper,
Miss Florence McGahey and Miss
Pauline Gellatly, all of whom are
sponsors of Mortar Board.

Readers' Find
No More Velvet
In Their Jobs
There is no more velvet for
"readers" in the University of Ne
braska. Old man depression came
along and took a considerable
chunk out of the university appro
priations and consequently all
readers and assistants have ex
perienced a shrinking of the pay
check. It scarcely pays to have the job
now since the profit isn't enough
to buy spectacles and the work
and composition of the papers Is
such that they are necessary.
The trimming of expenses has
taken three distinct forms. Either
the professor has to correct some
of the papers himself, or he has to
have less papers corrected, or the
readers have to do the same
amount of work with less remun
eration. In any case the process
is painful and does not put many
pennies into the pockets of the
poor but intellectual.
In fact, the only decent way the
reader can make a dime any more
is to find some rich but dull stu
dent and convince him of the ne
cessity of outside tutoring. There
is no restriction placed on the
amount that can be charged for an
hour's transfer of brains.
It might be profitable for some
one to start an agency whereby the
intelligensla can help the stupid
and get a nice fat check in return.

DRAMA

February Production
Opens Monday.
HART JENKS IS LAUDED
Guest Artist, Cast in Title
Role, Acclaimed Star
On First Night.
Shakespeare's "Othello," current
production of the University Play
ers, received the general acclaim
of a capacity house as it opened a
week's run in the Temple theater
Monday night.
Cast in the title role was Hart
Jenks, former member of the dra
matics department faculty who
has been playing Shakespeare with
the Walter Hampden company on
Broadway. Those who saw Mr.
Jenks in "Hamlet," given by the
players in the spring of 1930,
praised hi3 last night's perform
ance as his best in Lincoln.
Approval given the production
on its first night promised a popu
lar run for the Players' February
production. Other characters in the
tragedy were mostly experienced
actors with the Players. Their in
terpretation of their roles, along
with the stellar performance of
Mr. Jenks, bears out professional
opinion that "Othello," as well as
being one of Shakespeare's most
tremendous pieces, is one of his
most presentable.
Desdemona, the wife of the jeal
ous Moor, was admirably played
by Mary Kay Throop. Her inter
pretation of a difficult part added
to the effectiveness of the entire
drama.
While it would be monotonous
to go thru the entire cast search
ing for new words of praise, the
entire company deserves credit for
one of the best productions shown
in Lincoln at any time.
The cast is as follows:

Cunningham, head of the school,
the college of architecture, has

sufficient room in the old museum

The arrangement is only tem
porary, probably for only this
semester. Prof. Cunningham says
he hopes to have a separate build

100 DISCUSSES USE
OF TESTS IN COLLEGE
Columbia Professor Talks on
Intelligence Exams for
Students.
GIVES RESULT OBTAINED
fVillpire students do not show a
decided gain in their four years at
.. .f T" Y
couege, according io nr. dbu
Wnnd director of the bureau Of
collegiate educational research,
Columbia university, wno ad
dressed the faculty at 4 o'clock,
Monday afternoon in the base
ment auditorium of Morrill hall.
Speaking on the "College Test
ing Prntrram." Dr. Wood declared
that the results of tests given to
the lour classes ai tjoiumuia
showed that the students had made
no decided gain in any of the sub
jects over which they were ex
amined. The subjects which were
used as the basis of the examina
tions were English, mathematics,
foreign languages, social sciences,
and natural sciences.
Dr. Wood however, proposes the
new kind of intelligence test which
uses objective answers of yes or
no, plus or minus sign in prefer
ence to the ones used which are
subjective, and which require a
paragraph or two in answer to a
simple question. The tests cover a
wide variation and range of sub
jects, presenting to the student a
number of questions covering
many fields of subjects. The tests
cover a period of fifteen hours,
which is given to the student in
five three-hour sessions during five
half days.
The same test given to the four
different classes showed approxi
mately uniform mental ability, but
. AA4k& MMtfl fiilrh flj Emr-
xuvait v- jjuvjvvwi - w
lish, Mathematics, and General
culture subjects showed a decrease
in points scored.
One of the causes of this defi
ciency in the intelligence test
method is due perhaps to the fact
that the student works each semes
ter for credit rather than for the
content of the course itself. Many
of the courses are required for a
degree and are not especially a
preference of the student, so he
takes the course, cramming for the
exam, and dismisses the material
offered in the course from his
mind, as soon as be has passed the
requirements.
