Honest Election
On Tap at Last
The student council yesterilnv mapped a
fall election balloting si-heme that should put
an ond to any and all dirty politics around the
polls. It called in the unprejudiced faculty to
assist in checking student identification cards
and pictures, dishing out the validated ballots
(only one to a voter this time) and count inn
the X-marked choices.
Undergraduates, quick to jump at conclu
sions, will probably think the student council's
calling in of the faculty is an infringement
upon student rights. (5 ranted, this is a student
election with students as candidates and stu
dents as electors. The rub comes in having
students as election officials.
There is little'doubt but that, the council's
action in securing faculty election authorities
is a blow to the preslige that traditionally sur
rounds members of the student council. And
the council representatives cannot be blamed
exclusively. Politics played a part for each
member when lie went through the campus
campaign. His election did not sever his politi
cal affiliations. He owes his sponsoring body
something for its support. Thus, he brings poli
tics into the council room.
To repeat, this is not the fault of the stu
dent council members. Jt's just politics! Ideal
ist ically minded students might suggest that
the council throw a cloak of non-partisanship
over its members and forbid members to dab
ble in politics. The impracticality of such a
venture necessitates its abandonment.
There can be no direct quarrel with the
faculty members who have been 'drafted to
stage next week's honest election. They have
no interest in the election, except to see that
the election is entirely on the up-and-up. They
are going to do the student council's election
task, but they are going to handle the ballot
ing absolutely impersonally.
Every election produces those politicians

Farm House
Is Answered
TO THE EDITOR:
Under the captivating caption.
"Truth is Stranger than Fiction,"
in Tuesday's Pulse Column, a dis
gruntled Farm House member let
loose with a verbal barrage
against the alleged discrimination
of the Rag in its failure to recog
nize the achievements of his fra
ternity in scholarship.
To bring this issue nearer to
the plane of understanding of this
antagonized agriculturist, one
might say that his grunts of com
plaint are about as realistic as
those emitted from the avaricious
hogs in their mad lush to be the
first to gobble up the feed from
under the snouts of brother hogs.
Perhaps this analogy of the barn
yard is the only truth that is
stranger than fiction in our friend
farmer's pulsating pulse article.
Our friend laments the atroc
ity committed by the Rag in fail
ing to recognize the Farm House
as a social fraternity. With croco
dile tears in his eyes he tells the
Rag editor to go over to the of
fice of the dean of student affairs
and procure a copy of the latest
scholarship reports, there to find
that Farm House outranks the Chi
Phi fraternity.. If our ubused
friend will follow the advice given
to the Rag, he will find that the
Farm House is listed by the uni
versity officials as a professional
fraternity.
It. has always been one of the
sweet mysteries of life just why
the Farm House is considered a
social fraternity by thu Inteifra
tenity council, yet in the eyes of
the university and the dean of
student affairs, supremo sources,
Farm House is recognized as a
professional fraternity. This is an
irreconcilable fact; a fact which
is inconsistent with all principles
of justice and fair play.
Is it not tenable to hold that a
school such as the agricultural col
lege, with a curriculum of basic
elly different subjects falls within
the scope of professional schools
just as does the school of law or
the school of dentistry? What is
the fundamental difference be
tween tbp.se schools and the col
lege of agriculture besides the dif
ferent effect upon the olfactory
senses ?
Why, then, this special conces
sion to Farm House?' Had they
not begrudged the Chi Phi's the
small amount of recognition that
they so justly deserved, they
might have continued to receive1
recognition for scholarship attain
ment under these false pretenses.
However, the cupidity of this fra
ternity in their lust for all of the
hog-feed warrants that this matter
should be brought to light ana
settled once and for all.
It is high time for the Intel-fraternity
council to put their house
in order. The truly social fraterni
ties have tolerated this flagrant
abuse long enough. Our friend
makes much of the fact that his
"pore" organization has won the
Hanler Trophy six out of the seven
times that it has been awarded.
All of us will agree that this was
six times too much.
If cattle judging and animal
husbandry and other barnyard
subjects are to be considered on a
par with the courses given the
truly social fraternities, then the
true purpose of the Hanier trophy
and even the Interfraternity coun
cil Is thrown to the four winds.
Should a vote be taken at any In
terfraternity council meeting, the
resentment of the Greek social fra
ternities would so manifest Itself
as to oust the Farm House rep
resentative so fast that you would
think thnt he had measles.
In the interests of fair play and
justice so long lacking, the Jntcr
frntnrnity Council should remove
all traces of professionalism from
its ranks. The purposes for which
it came into being must be pre
served and this incongruity be
tween the opinion of the university
officials and the Council must be
eliminated.
In conclusion, a word to my sub
urban friend, to the effect that he
really should get someone to ?all
his hegs for him at feeding time
because it's a cinch that the hogs
won i neneve llim.
Gus the Greek.

Tassel Aims
Frosh A.W.S. Group
Hears Pep Club Head
"Tassels, aims are chiefly friend
ship, pep, school spirit and en
thusiasm," stated Virginia Nolte,
president of that organization, at
the regular meeting of the Fresh
man A. W. S. held at Ellen Smith
hall yesterday at 5 o'clock.
The Tassels cooperate with all
University organizations on the
campus in sponsoring some ac
tivities as well as leading a great
number themselves. They sell Uni
versity Players tickets, Cornhusk
ers, "N" balloons at the Homecom
ing game, tickets for the Mortar
Board party, usher at all convo
cations and musical programs
which are sponsored by the Uni
versity, cooperate with the other
women's groups in giving the AH
Activities tea, and cooperate with
the N club and the Corn Cobs in
planning the rallies. Although all
of these things are done by the
girls' pep club, their most impor
tant duty is to attend the football
games, basketball games and the
rallies in a body.
Personality Developer.
"There are many things to be.
derived from membership in the'
Tassels besides an activity point,"
explained Miss Nolte. Lasting
friendships are niada both in the
group and on the campus and ex
cellent training is received in
salesmanship but most important
of all is the way that membership
in an organization of this kind
develops your personality. .
Miss Jane Allen presided over
the meeting. The group, which is
fully organized now, will have a
roll call taken at every meeting
and two unexcused absences will
drop ftglrl from membership, The
Freshman A. W. S. on the ag col
lege campus will meet on Wed
nesday instead of Tuesday as ha3
been the custom.

One of ihe additions to this
year's Comhusker will be the sec
tion of CHndid photos, and pictures
with explanations concerning Ne
braska's new Student Union build
ing. Because this is the first year
that the new building is being used
and so much of tho student activ
ity centers around it, Pat Lahr,
editor of the yearbook, felt that
k section devoted to it would add
much to this year's edition.
This section will really be a
camera survev of the hnildintr. Its
activities, speakers, grill, cafeteria,
game rooms, and the many other
facilities which go to make it the
center of cammis life. There will
be pictures on all of the outstand
ing activities as well as snapshots
of the dally run of student activ
ity in tne building.
Accordinrr to Mian I.ahr mih.
ject matter during the past two
years Cornhusker has been more
or less stereotyped. Year after
year, there has been little change
or material, tho makeup has been
practically tne same, and the lea
tureg; were changed but slightly.
A converse of this condition can be
found in the annual publications
of far western colleges. They
change so radically each year that
iney are reaiiy noimng more than
snapshot albums. This year's staff
of the Cornhusker is devotinir ex
tra time to the makeup and con
tent wun tne hope that they will
strike a happy medium between
the usual annual and those of the
western colleges. For this reason
ana in oruer to obtain this me
dium, a number of candid and in
formal photos and new material
will be included in the layouts.
These additions will counterbal
ance the usual content of the year
book. Unusual photography will be
one of the outstanding features
of this year's publication. Bill
Buchanan who is in charge of
special feature photograph, prom
ises a number of unique and un
usual Dhotos. Hp i
Paul Bradley, Bob Hunt, and Bob
Sandberg. There are also a num
ber of freshman working in this
department.
The work of these photograph
ers was demonstrated at the In
diana game last Saturday when
they took a number of pictures of
the band and the cheering sec
tions. The yearbook also has its
own photographer at all of the
gmes and so far this season he
has made a number of exception
ally good action photos of the
games. They will be used in the
sport section of the Cornhusker.
The editors of the yearbook urge
students who have photos which
they feel would be suited for the
book, to submit them for publica
tion. The pictures, if used will be
returned with the proofs.

Vocation Forum
Studies Nursing
Miss Burgess Describes
Work to Freshmen
"Nursing as a Vocation" will
be discussed by Miss pharlotte
Burgess, director of the university
school of nursing, in Omaha, this
afternoon from 3 to 5 o'clock in
room 101 of social sciences. This
is the third of a series of voca
tional forums being sponsored by
the arts and sciences college this
semester.
Attempting to answer any ques
tions that a student might ask
concerning training and entry to
the nursing field, Miss Burgess
will emphasize the various phases
of nursing and the problems re
lating to each.
Stressing the value of attending
such a forum for those especially
interested in nursing as a voca
tion, Dr. VV. S. Gregory, special
adviser to freshmen, who is ar
ranging the forums, urges any
student, regardless of college or
class, to attend.
Will It Be
Professor Benes?
Brown university has offered
former President Benes of Czecho
slovakia a professorship in polit
ical science. By this prompt and
commendable action, officials of
the American university have indi
cated that there Is still a place
in the world for a Czechoslovakian
believer in democracy, even
though a believer in Czechoslovak
ian democracy may soon command
about as much credence as one of
Hitler's promises.
Benes represents the cream of
postwar democratic idealism. He
has been described as a "person
who wished to use Intelligence to
govern the world' intelligence
rather than armed force and mass
emotional hysteria.
Should he accept the Brown pro
fessorship, cynics will not be lack
ing to point him out as another
museum piece of the classroom
that vast store house traditionally
over crowded with theoretically
ideal principles which fail to func
tion ideally in practice.
But Benes has been a statesman
as well as a theorist. Czechoslo
vakia's failure was not his fail
ure. It was not his fault that the
senior democracies who sanc
tioned the former Czech ideology
of his predecessor and master,
Masark -failed to provide the
means for protecting that Ide
ology. Given the relative detachment
and tranquility of an American
college unharrassed by the rum
ble of cannon in the streets or the
shouts ot "Heil Hcnlein," "heil
Hitler," beneath his window
Bene:: may be able to draw upon
the ample data of his experience
to formulate some better method
of withstanding the dictator, with
his negation of everything that the
aymuui uemocracy implies, inai
way, something might after all be
salvaged from the Czechoslovakian
fiasco.
