"As everyone knows, the Hus

justly believe that they have a

Howard Allaway, editor of the

everyone turns out for the rally,
the team will be greatly benefited
by the knowledge that the students
are behind them and put every

MEET TO DISCUSS
Presidents of Organizations
Seek Replacement for
World Forum.
To discuss the possibility of es
tablishing an all-student forum on
the campus to replace the former
World Forum group, the presidents
of all student organizations met
together on Thursday noon. Mere
dith Nelson, president of the uni
versity Y. M. C. A., led the discus
sion. The original plan of the World
Forum, a luncheon group meeting
regularly to be addressed on world
affairs by some prominent speaker,
will be retained. The new plan
calls for meetings at less frequent
intervals, but of such a nature
that they will be of interest to a
greater portion of the student
body than formerly.
The advisability of appointing
or electing a committee of three
to have charge of this student
forum, to be supplemented by a
member from the Y. M. C. A. and
the Y. W. C. A., was discussed.
Meredith Nelson was named to
draw up such a plan and present
it to the student council at the reg
ular meeting of that body next
Wednesday. Upon the action of the
council the forum would be
changed from a Y. W. C. A.-Y. M.
C. A. activity to an all-student ac
tivity. This meeting was attended by
the presidents of Innocents and
Mortar Board societies, A. W. S.
board, Interfraternity and Panbel
lenic councils. Y. W. C. A., Y. M.
C. A., Barb council, Student
Council, and the editor of the
Daily Nebraskan.

curator of the Nebraska State
Museum, in Morrill hall. It is a
device for showing lantern slides
in the form of a Chinese theatre,
the back stage of which houses an
electric light which illuminates the
slide. There is a different show
every day, as Mr. Collins inserts a
new slide appropriate to the day
or one reminding him of some
past experience each morning
when he enters the office.
He collected colored slides from
various cities in Europe during
his visits there and gathers new
ones whenever he sees some scene
or object that interests him. Wed
nesday he displayed a colored
photograph of the Christopher Co
lumbus statue in Genoa, Italy;
soon he will have a slide of the
giraffe which has recently been
mounted in Morrill hall.

Because members of the self

frosh cap tradtions.
"Vigilance" leaders, however, de
clared they will have a declaration
of purpose ready to submit for
student council approval within the
next few days.
Thumbs were turned down Wed

in frosh cap enforcement when

Clarifying the situation Thurs

definite organization steps had
been taken despite a meeting of

submitting any program of en

for the group to adopt a definite
organization plan.
"Before taking any steps in pre

necessary for the sophomores to

of their representative group."
It was understood that a sopho
