The Barbs
Map Plans
Organization of the li.irbs on tlie univcrsily
campus has pepped up the more enthusiastic
intlcpciHlciit stuilcms, hiis put a frown on tho
collective brows of the younger faction repre
sent at ives and lias provoked only a niiM smile
njx hi those "old hands" of campus polities.
Judging from ihe enthusiasm generated at
the first two mass meetings st aired by Ihe
I'.arlis, they must have finally liit upon a
.scheme that will give them their deserved
representation.
They have given themselves the name of
P.arli union, an appropriate sobriquet because
it will be ihe Student union which can afford
the J'.ai-bs with all facilities for their thought
ful program.
The Barb union's reform movement calls
for better housing opportunities, an employ
ment agency and an organization policy in
Ihe form of a ward system. Daily Xcbraskan
I'.dit..-? I'.d Murray last year conducted a sur
vey of Barb housing conditions which did little
better llian reveal that Barbs were getting a
raw deal from the many campus bordering
iiiing houses. If Ihis year's Barb organiza
tion can ''bring pressure to bear" upon certain
bouses and "force them to improve 1heir con
ditions," they will have accomplished a notable
piece of work.
1 lissai isfacl ion with the present set-up has
amused 1he new Barb union 1o establish an
employment agency, centralized and operated
so that Barbs will be at a better vantage spot
in obtaining student employment. Willi neither
of these two plans can fault be found, except
to point out that concerted effort toward the
realization of one at a time would probably
net more in the long run. Experience should
teach Barbs the lesson never to bite off more
than they can chew. Housing and employ
ment are two huge bites for anyone.
Interesting in the light of campus politics
is the Barb proposal for the establishment of
a ward system thruout Lincoln in an effort to
align ihe independent students. Many attempts
have been made for strong Barb organization
in politics but with little success in recent
years. Barb political lenders themselves have
been responsible for 1 lie ill fated ventures,
since their interests became too subjective.
They were concerned only with lining up a
following 1o espouse iheir candidacies for
campus offices. Consideration of the great
mass of Barbs of Barbs lasted only until elec
tion counts had been made.
The zealousness that accompanied the first
two Barb assemblies attested that the inlerest
is not confined 1o several politically ambitious
independent sludenls. That is a cheerful nolo
to those who would like to see the Barb pro
portion increased 1o appreciable size. To the
( I reek letter factions. Barb organization Ibis
year should be something to keep 1 lie fad inn
sessions in many special meetings.
Final organization of the Barbs with social,
service and athlelic programs 1o keep up ibe
interest should be to the advantage oT all fra
ternily and sorority sludenls as well as the
indifferent majority of Barb students. I! reek
Idler houses would be forced to keep on their
Iocs to match the progress of the friendly
enemy Barb sludenls. Stiff competition is the
best Ionic for both sides.

"DatabiMy"
Base for D.U.
Coed Ratings
News travels fust at the ITnl
versity of Minnesota, whether it's
about a football victory or the new
crop of sorority pledges. About the
last named item, tho D. U. chap,
ter up thar scored a very effec'.'.ve
scoop over all other news agencies
by means of as neat a news gath
ering and distributing agency as
has yet graced a college campus.
Headquarters for this ultra-successful
method were at the frater
nity's chapter house, -where a huge
brightly spotlighted billboard was
on display. Prominently posted
were ratings used to describe the
new pledges, with space allowed
for each sorority's score. Most of
the ratings were taken from titles
of popular songs and reading from
the top down were: 1. "You leave
me breathless," 2. You Can't Have
Kverything;" 3. "Small Fry," 4.
"Flat Foot Floogee;" 5, Hell's
Belles, and last and definitely
least, 6. Fools!
Posted in front of each soror
ity house was a judge who, as each
pledge went up to the house of her
choosing, would make a decision
as to the gal's datability and stick
up a card with the proper number
to correspond to ratings on the
score sheet.
This number would then be duly
recortletl to the accompaniment of
a steady stream of comment by an
announcer whose quips are report
ted to have made even the boldest
spirits quake, and were the delight
of the crowd assembled to cheer
and jeer for their favorite gal's
club.
