1938's Students Differ Little
From Tliose of 50 Years Ao
Stuffing
The DEallol Box
.. Only yesterday, we levelled the charge at
the student council that it has spent too much
time harping on old themes, or in pursuing
some new, but trivial goal. Todily, we're is
suing the charge that the student council, un
der its present set-up fails to do any more
than form the background for a political farce
whn it attempts to supervise elections in its
lackadaisical manner.
Yesterday's election carried with it
rumors that not a few, but, many students
were using identification cards in addition to
their own in order that they might swell the
vote for a faction candidate. Not only rumor,
but truth of this practice was brought to our
attention when we proceeded to watch several
students' make the rounds of the polls with
their collection of identification cards in
hand. We are. not levelling our charge at
members of any one faction, nor at any certain
students, but we are condemning the student
council for allowing the existence of such a
practice when they supposedly removed the
opportunity for such a practice in a plan de
vised last year.
The plan referred to is that of having each
student's picture attached to his identifica
tion card, that picture to include the student's
narae and college written on a slate and held
so that it could be photographed as a part
of the 'picture. With this provision, the coun
cil natural! could have deterred students from
using anyone else's identification card as
well as keeping students in one college from
voting with identification cards of students in
an entirely different college.
The manner in which the council has
treated this practice at the polls is typical of
most of their work for this year, it had a
good idea when it decided to take student
pictures, in order that they might accompany
sludent identification cards when elections
were held. It proceeded to have the pictures
taken at the first of the year, and after that
the matter was closed. The first election that
was held, the council reminded students that
their pictures must accompany identification
rnrds if they were to be allowed to vote. At
the time of the election, many students either
had failed to obtain their pictures or had left
them at home. Consequently, the council
members in charge decided "to let the voter
pass. With the realisation that pictures
weren't actually needed came the rapid de
struction or loss of pictures and the revival
of using anyone's identification card to vote.
The blame for such practices as existed
at the polls yesterday must be laid definitely
at the door of the council. If the council were
well enough organized and contained mem
bers who were determined to see that the
polls were conducted efficiently, the idea of
having pictures attached to identification
cards would not have met the fate of most
council plans merely reaching the stage oi
an idea which was never put into pr ictiee.
We will have to admit that tie council
idea was, in its origin, a good one, and it. would
probably do much toward the elimination of
politics at the polls. Our sii'-vg';stion is. then,
that this idea be carried out and not allowed'
to fade into nothingness whither it is now
headed. If council members in charge of the
polls were instructed to let no one vote until
his identity had been established both by pic
ture and his name and college written on the
picture, much of the present difficulty would
be permanently removed that is. ' if the
council members co-operated ami religiously
followed their instructions, instead of lettini:
someone vote just because they happened to
know nun. or liecause lie seemed to have
honest face.
Should the council decide to make
idea become a reality, it will be necessary
take toe pictures of everyone who registers
next year, since many of the first photographs
have been destroyed, since they appeared of
no value under the present council enforce
ment. Next year should be the final pictures
for all students registering and hereafter
only freshmen should have pictures taken, as
intended under the original pbm. Students
will take care of the pictures if thev realize
that for once in its life the council "aetuallv
means that student will NOT be permitted to
vote unless the picture is presented along with
the identification card. Should a student fail
to present a picture with his identification
card, the card should be held bv the council
and destroyed. In a short time this would
eliminate further attempts to vote without
proper identification and pictures.
The council does not bear an cspeeiall
impressive record of achievement this vean
yet it could be described as having contributed
a great deal if it would make definite arrant
ineiits for revision of its voting rcpiircnieiit?
As we have pointed out. we must admit that
the council has a good idea but we can hardlv
eonunend it on the manner in which the idea
had been put into practice.
Miss Barbour Recollects
Changes on Campus
Sinco 1892.
By Maria Wiebe.
Students do not change any more
than docs human nature from one
generntinn to another. Fifty years
ajo when our grandparents went
to this university, the students
liked to study just as well as we
do today, they were just as anx
ious about a good time hs we, and.
in general, the theory of many of
our elder.-), "when we were young
we never d d so and so," is entirely
unfounded according to Miss Car
rie Barbour.
"When we ert old
is inclined to be uncharitable to
me young, but I have worked with
students to.- j years and I don't
think thnt they've changed a great
deal," Mirs S.ir'oour declared.
Museum in Nebraska Hall.
Miss Carrie Barbour who came
to the university campus in JS92,
still hfi a f'.nar.i of almost youth
ful determination in her eye, in
ppite of her snow wh'tc hair, when
nlie tells of the growth of the mu
ncum in particular and also of the
university.
When Miss Barbour first came
here the museum collection con
sisted of a few shells and stones
which were harbored in Nebraska
hall. The collection was soon
greatly increased by the work of
her brother, Krwin H. Bur hour
who excavated many fossils while I
Miss Barbour worked them out I
mounted them. Then the building
now called Former Mureum, was ,
built and the collection was moved !
there. i
Five Buildings in 1802. !
Miss Barbour paid that in 1SD2 ;
there were five bui! lings on the;
campus: The Library, Pharmacy,
then called Chemistry hall, Grant
Memorial, Nebr-iska hall and Uni
versity hall.
"I'd like to see University hall ,
moved away and green sod put!
in there," she went on, "but that
would break Miss Pound's heart,
because she first taught there. Ne
braska hall should meet the same
fate. It was already quite rickety j
when we moved out, and I like to
see things progress."
Little Dancing in 'SO's.
When asked if s";e thought thnt
the students today as a whole were
different in their attitude toward
life or their studios than they
wore in '.y2, sh- said:
"No, I rant see that they've
changed murh; if anything it's for
the better. Years ago the Temple
theater was built for much fie
same purpose as the Student Union
building, b'-'i the students didn't
make use of it; now they seem to
have learned how to use it."
She explained that in the '90's
there whs very little dancing on
the campus, and when it was done
it was done secretly.
After Miss Barbour taught
paleontology for 25 years, she left
teaching and has now turned her
whole attention to the working out
and mounting of fossils at the
Morrill hall. Many of the excellent
specimens exhibited in Morrill hall
have been mounted by Miss Bar
bour or under her supervision.
