Students Raise Protest Against Enforcement of Rule Prohibiting Sunday Card Playing and Dancing Student opinion is decidedly against the university ruling against the playing of cards and dancing in organized houses on Sunday it was revealed following a series of interviews ear ned on among twenty students Or the twenty who voiced strictions, all but one were in favor of abolishing the ruling. "1 feel that the ruling shouldO oe eliminated, since most students find entertainment outside of their houses on Sunday night," declared one senior girl well known in ac tivities. Another student, a junior in the university, declared that she was in favor of eliminating the rule, as antiquated and provincial. Still another, perhaps a bit severe in her characterization of the rul ing, declared that "the idea was not only silly, but absolutely ab surd." One Favors Rule. Tha one student in favor of the rule as it stands now, declared that "university students need some sort of legislation to preserve order, and that is what I tmnK that the rule was intended for." Most students, both male and female, felt that the rule would have applied some years ago, but is "sadly out of place during the present generation of greater free dom among students. Men Strongly Protest. Men were particularly opposed to the ruling forbidding social ac tivity, one senior man ana wen known on the campus stating that "there should be fewer restrictions on the campus. The superflous and cumbersome restrictions that have been placed upon organized houses have a tendency to break them purely for that purpose rather than obeying them. As for me, I think there should not be any rules ct all." As a general rule those inter viewed felt that the present sys tem of control among the organ ized houses was outworn, suggest ing more flexible and more "hu man" regulations as substitutes. Of the twenty students on the campus who voiced their opinions, eleven were girls, and nine were boys, all of them being affiliated with greek organizations with one exception. 10 Tentative Arrangements for Out-of-Town Trip Will Be Discussed.

"You are the ones who will have to carry on this nation and bring it out o fthe mess, my generation put it in," Senator Norris said, "that you can do it, I have no doubt. As a matter of fact, you cannot help but do a better job of it than we did." "Your interest in politics is a healthy one," the white-haired lib eral continued, "it is a sign that America will not fail.

SEND-OFF RALLY Students Meet at Burlington Station as Cornhuskers Leave for Ames. Students should make plans to be present at the Burlington sta tion Friday evening at 6:40 for a brief send-off rally for the Husk ers when they depart for the Iowa State game, Lloyd Loomis, Inno cent in charge of rallies, announced Wednesday evening. "While definite plans for the sendoff have not yet been complet ed." Loomis declared, "we do know that the Corn Cobs, Tassels, and the band will be there, and we want every student who can pos sibly make it, to be there to show the team that we are behind them 100 percent in every game they play, both at home and away." "The student body displayed an excellent spirit and a lot of fire at the Texas rally and really made a success of it," he continued, "but at the game Saturday, the major ity seemed to lose their enthusi asm, particularly after Nebraska took a substantial lead in the first half. We cannot let that happen again. Nebraska has an unusually strong team and an excellent chance of going through the sea son undefeated, but the team needs the whole hearted support of stu dents to do this." "The showing of future Corn husker opponents against strong national teams so far this season attaches greater significance to Nebraska's remaining home games, and Dresages close con tests," Loomis declared. "For that reason, the Innocents society in tends to sponsor night rallies be fore every home game, and send off rallies tor all foreign tilts." By developing student spirit and keeping it a high level for games, rallies are really valuable to the team according to Head Coach Bible. Other members of the athletic department agreed with Bible that the pep meetings were a big factor in stimulating and maintaining student interest and enthusiasm for athletics. Officers of Tassels and Corn Cobs, women's and men's pep or ganizations respectively, an nounced that the organizations would give full support to the Iowa State and all future rallies. "The administration is behind the Innocents on all rallies so long as we maintain order," Loomis de clared. "We believe we can have just as lively and enthusiastic ral lies as ever, and still comply with all university rules, and we ask every student to cooperate in mak ing our rally projects successful." taking an interest in the prob . something to them These things are In the same locality, but our system will not permit one to be given or even loaned to the other.

You know that nothing is to be gained by continuing in the present ways. You know that a change is neces sary. You are willing to experi ment. Striking deeply at the old party system, he ueclared that youth"s interest in politics should be kept clear of this taint. He maintained that when the men in office realized that they could not be kept in office by party bosses, simply because the young people could not be whipped into line, that a new era in politics, an honest pe riod, would follow. Touching for a moment upon the work of President Roosevelt, he declared that the president was doing wonderful work. He added his praise to the NRA, as a "hu manitarian, progressive piece of work " "We must forge ahead." Senator Norris said in closing, "there is work to be done.
