If we had a PICTURE, we would run it at
the TOP of the page.
It would be used to ILLUSTRATE this
editorial.
But we don't have a picture.
So this will be an UNILLUSTRATED edi
torial. This is an editorial on ALL WORK AND
NO PLAY MAKES JACK A DULL E0Y.
The SAGES of history have handed down
that FAMOUS principle. The Romans, the
Babylonians ALL agreed with its context.
Even CARLYLE said WORK IS OUR
ONLY SALVATION, BUT IT'S MORE FUN
TO PLAY.
And Justice McReynolds says WE
SHOULD ALL BE GOOD SPORTS.
In the LABOR THEORY OF VALUE,
Karl Marx makes provision for FUN as well
as WORK.
The NEBRASKAN likes to PLAY. The
NEBRASKAN believes that one out of ONE
HUNDRED AND SEVENTY editions and
TWO TABLOIDS should be GOOD CLEAN
FUN.
The NEBRASKAN could find no better
date lor JOYOUS YOUTH to indulge in FES
TIVITIES than APRIL FOOL'S DAY.
We hope you ain't mad.
of the INTOLERABLE situation on our
CAMPUS.
SMOKING in the halls must STOP.
All thee GREAT MINDS have opposed
SMOKING.
SARAH LOUISE MEYER says "It makes
a chimney of the nose." '
It also makes little MARKS in the LINO
LEUM floors of our hallways.
If it does not stop VOLUNTARILY, we
shall have to resort to VIGILANTEISM. VIG
ILANTES are people who wear black robes
and swear to blood oaths.
No NICE PEOPLE like VIGILANTES.
So you'd better stop. SMOKING in the
halls.
VIGILANTEISM
This is a MUST editorial.
In newspaper parlance, a MUST editorial
is one that the CHIEF says you MUST run.
MR. HEARST did not send us a telegram
from SAN SIMEON or NEW YORK telling us
that we MUST run this one.
Neither did the CHIEF in WASHING
TON, nor the COMRADE in Moscow who sends
us our monthly allowance.
We decided this one MUST run because
COMMUNISM
This is an editorial on COMMUNISM.
COMMUNISM is a SUBVERSIVE force that
threatens the CONSTITUTION we love.
The CONSTITUTION stands as a mighty
wall holding back the sea of FREE LOVE and
threats to AMERICAN PROGRESS that come
with COMMUNISM.
Some people would rather live under a
TYRANT like STALIN than a BENEVOLENT
DICTATOR like MR. ROOSEVELT, whom we
love.
These people are BORING FROM WITH
IN. They are UNDERMINING our GREAT
AMERICAN SYSTEM.
HISTORY has shown that all govern
ments have fallen when someone BORED
FROM WITHIN. All the GREAT THINKERS
know that COMMUNISM threatens everything
we love home, the hearth, the fireside, the
pipe and slippers.
We must UNITE, comrades, and drive
COMMUNISM from our shores. The AMER
ICAN PEOPLE will not TOLERATE dictatorship.

The most epochal coup in all of
Nebraska Barb history was staged
bv the Barb Interclub council at
of shimmering: flannel will be
modeled by Virginia Hyatt, Eli
nor Kelly, Muriel Krasne, and Pat
Peterson.
The latest in "red undie" lin
gerie will be shown in the review
by the famed trio of Deloris Bors,
Dorothy Bose, and Virginia Gris
wold. while Frances McQuillan,
Velma Ekwall, and Jean Stone
will model costumes exemplifying
special meeting held last night ; wn t th dressed prl win
in U. hall when the Barbs, seeking
by a surprise move to demoralize
Greek forces, decided to bolt their
faction and run independently in
the election May 11. Council Pres

For Breakfast.
Climaxing the review will be the
appearance of Betty idener,
ident Austin Moritz personally led ! Ruth Rapalee, and Virginia An
the leftist movement which al-derson in breakfast .costumes of
ready has the support of four fra-j waffle cloth. Shades of eggshell
ternities. He declared that the and peach will be featured in
Barbs had lately become so arous
ed against their lark of represent
ation in campus offices that new
ballot boxes of sufficient propor
tions to accommodate the anti
cipated 3.200 Earb votes were be
ing ordered.
Greek political party pacifica
tors, unnerved at this unlooked
for strategy in the Barb camp,
are attempting to placate the
rampaging Barbarians, by offer
ing them 20 percent member
ship in the student council, and
the junior class presidency on
alternate years. "These concilia
tory gestures will avail them
nothing," shouted Moritz to the
council members.
"We have too long been ground
under th tyrant's heels. From
now on we hold the whip hand.
If the fraternities expect to have
liny men in office let them give us
their whole, hearted support now!
A week hence will be too late!"
When the council president cooled
down a hit he added further: "Pig
ma Alpha Epsilon. Kappa Sigma,
Delta t'pMlon, and Phi Gamma
Delta, fraternities which ha al
ways loyally supported the Barb
raufe, are now behind us and we
expert others to join the ranks of
the Barbs within the week."
At the game meeting Dean
Worcester and P.ar.som Slayton
wer delegated to compose cam
paign slogans ;ind mottos. Moritz
will personally supervise the se
lection of arm bands to be worn
by the Earbs from now until elec
tion time.
Only other interesting Barb
happening during the week
which we have noted was a de
cision taken at a joint meeting
of Palladian and Dclian Union
these outfits.
As for the rest of the costumes
of the 979 models, Miss Cherny
refused to comment, explaining,
"With this galaxy of pulchritude
going on review we feel that there
is little need for further comment.
We are sure that there will be a
capacity crowd with the amount
of information we have given al
ready and we know it won't be
possible to seat more than a thou
sand on the picket fence."
Martha Morrow, skit chairman,
bar ked Miss Cherny in her state
ment by saying, "Tickets are on
sale at '25c."

except Dean Burr's secretary, who
carried a large brief case and
seemed to be the go-between in
the struggle for supremacy.
Board Members Speak.
Various members of the board,
with the exception of Mr. Hed
lund who stayed in his stall, gave
shgrt speeches from the windows
and the roof of the barn. Earl
Heady, vehement In his belief that
the students must sit down to get
what they want, aired his views
on the chief objections to Dean
Burr's appearance in the riding
contest.
"We understand that the Farm
er's Fair plans are up to us. We
were as surprised as you are to
hear that Dean Burr plans to ride
with the girls. We advocate that
everyone in ag college has his or
her little part in the fair but as
to knock out the wall between j there is plenty of room for the
the two societies and join Dean in the reviewing stand, we

will stay here until he leaves the

sentence proved too much for Mr.
Heady and the crowd cheered as
he fell out of the window. Unhurt
he jumped from the ground
rushed into the building and sat
down again.
Down But Not Out.
Marjorle Francis, waving a
small red flag, denied any com
munistic leanings and I'd the as
sembled crowds in a number of

"We may be sitting down but
we're not out," she gcreamed.
Dean Burr remained in hi ot

welcome to do so as long as they

all out" but that he had been
beaten to it.
Hill Sighs.
"This may seriously affect the
international situation," Prof.
Norman Hill sighed, "but maybe
we can have a little excitement
for a change. Our next step was
to have been the propogandizing
of University Place and College
View."
Prof. J. P. Senning waa in
coherent. Prof. David Fellman eluded the
Nebraskan reporter with the state
ment that the matter would take
further study and he would have
a brochure ready for the press
within several months. Prof. Lane
Lancaster admitted that the whole
thing probably didn't mean much
in the end and. "what's the use
anyway." he added.
Sleuthing Reporter.
For several days a staff man
was assigned to spy out the activi
ties of the department members
and to report their doings. One
whole day he spent In the office
of the Chief Instigator, hiding be
hind a stack of papers and books.
He found nothing unusually until
accidentally rubbing his perspir
ing brow with an old newspaper,
he discovered that he was holding
a recent copy of "The, Daily
Worker."
The real clue, however, was a
tune. All of the men involved in
the scandalous plot to substitute
a vicious, foreign form of govern
ment for our great democracy,
were often found humming the
"International." This lead to the
final discoveries that blew the lid
of the UnAmerican organization.
The Commander of the Ameri
can Revolution issued the follow-
ing statement which explains the
attitudes and expresses the con
victions of all true Americans. He
said:
"Italy may have its Fascism,
Germany may have its Natziism,
Russian may have its Communism,
but for America there is only one
ism, and that ism is Americanism."
OLD CONSTITUTION
Republican Leader Speaks
At Founder's Day Dinner
In Booth at Moon.
"Let's stick to that old constitu
tion it's good enough for Sim
mons and it's good enough for
me, pleaded James E. Lawrence
die-hard Republican leader as he
left the speakers stand of the
rounders day banquet of tne
Republican party held in the rear
booth of the Moon. Lawrence
launched a scalding attack on all
present administrative policies,
"My friends," the state's lead
ing Republican and one time
mentioned as a possible cabinet
member under the Landon regime,
began. "We have been hearing a
lot of noise from Washington
about the trouble our president is
having in plowing a field with a
horse that can not seem to get into
the spirit of the thing. But here
I say to you my friends my good
friends that while I was working
out on Sam McKelvie's farm
while he was serving as governor,
I learned that when we put two
young colts on a plow, it was
always a pretty good idea to leave
an old horse in the rear to keep
them from breaking up the ma
chinery." Stop Federal Relief.
"We must, my friends, put a cut
in the throat of federal relief. It
is absolutely against the principles
of our great democratic nation
and the sooner that our relief bur
den is relieved thru Republican
forces this problem will be solved.
The Democratic party is not dead,
nor is Roosevelt a "wet blanket"
in his small circle of Democratic
friends, but, ladies and gentlemen,
we must save our nation from the
ravages of dictatorship."
"In conclusion, my Republican
colleagues, let me say to you that
we are headed out of danger. The
Democrats in Maine and Vermont
are leaning toward Republicanism.
If this is so, our country will be
unanimous."

and John T. Flynn could be

by the way, should be protected

Questioned by th Young Com

bility of securing Comrade Earl

statement "Maybe, after the legis

hardly let me decline the honor.
Reiterates Stand.
"Altho I can only reiterate my
stand that the present court is
functioning admirably, it stands
to reason that if nine judges are
good, 16 judges ought to be twice
as good!" Here the dean smiled
gently as tho conscious of the
logic of his argument.
When queried as to whether he
favored the change to come by
constitutional amendment or a
congressional act, Dean Foster
stated, that he has been feeling
for some time that the constitution
is becoming a somewhat antiqu
ated document and that he doubted
the wisdom of trying to patch it
up. 'It would be about like putting
a new roof on University hall,"
he explained, again smiling gently.
'Congress has done very well
this far in following the lead and
suggestions of the president, and
this is no time to decide to go
half hog only. I shall have a more
carefully arranged and revised
statement to make tomorrow. I
fear that the suddenness of the
announcement has caught me with
my thoughts somewhat uncollect
ed," confessed the dean, smiling
gently.

fully ten minutes so I investi

night. "On my way over I met a
student Janitor and told him about
what I thought had happened. He
said he was responsible only for
cleaning the dirt and rubbish
around sosh and did not want to
take on more work than he could
handle. I met another student jan
itor tho, and we both explored
the ruins as soon as we got to
them. The wreckage was very
complete. Not a chair nor table
was left with a leg to stand on,
and all the walls, floors and ceil
ings were heaped together in a
conical pile of junk." testified the
campus cop, adding, "Except the
top."
Librarian Contacted.
The head librarian could not be
reached in his office until 7:00,
due to faulty phone connection.
He said he had noticed that the
door was not in its usual place
and that he intended to push the
campaign for a new library. The
campaign was started 15 years ago
and has been gathering momen
tum, adherents, and dust continu
ally since then.
There was only one tragedy oc

had to hold him back to keep him
from putting it where the reserve
desk was. He said that he had to
return it or pay an additional 50
cents which he couldn't afford. He
was taken in a state of collapse
to the student infirmary.
Due to the present state of af
fairs, no books will be issued to
any student, even if he has paid
his fees. All library activity has
been temporarily suspended.
Sooner or later the legislature
is going to realize that Nebraska
university needs a new library,"
said Arnold Levin, president of
the council. "Now is the time to
request one. We must strike while
the iron is hot and this little in
cident is fresh in the minds of
everyone."
A mass meeting of student in
dignation has been called for 7:30
tonight in the coliseum to call the
attention of the university to this
catastrophe.
"This campaign must not blow
over like the library has," stated
another student leader.

Motivation for the new policy,
the editors disclosed, came from
the Chicago Tribune, which, in its
front page lead story last Sunday
ran a dispatch from Jerusalem,
Judea, written in 47 A. D. by one
Luke.
"If the Chicago Tribune can do
it," they declared, "its good enough
for us,"
Beginning in the next issue, the
Nebraskan will reprint selections
from Lewis Carroll's "Alice In

present court system.

students, three faculty members,
one motorman, and a canary.
Express elevators will rush stu
dents to the top of each tower
into which more than 1,500 tons
of stainless steel and concrete
will go. Cost of the structure has
been tentatively set at 3 millions
of dollars although substitution of
cast iron in a few of the joints of
the giant towers may reduce that
figure by several hundred dollars.
Campus Cop Jubilant.
Landscaping of the mall is a
logical step now according to
Dean Ferguson, and plans have
been submitted by several firms
calling for a plot strewn with lily
ponds, orange trees, arbor vitae
and other flora. "With the com
pletion of the new sky ride, 99
students out of 100 will cease
walking across the mall," states
the Campus Cop, "and I'll handle
the rest."
The designers of the sky ride
modestly disclaim complete orig
inality in the project, there hav

as a Century of Progress Exposition.

Dr. Earl Cline, member of the
board of regents, declared the
change to be one that would make
history for Nebraska. "Advertis
ing is what this university needs,"
he stated. "With an athlete like
Francis at the head of our in
stitution, with nationwide weekly
broadcasts featuring student dance
orchestras and singers, we can
double the enrollment."
