DAILY NEBRASKAN Sunday, November 3, 1940 2 The university j . Thursday evening, the university YMCA opened its campaign for funds among city campus students by entertaining representatives from fraternities and barb houses at a "kickoff" dinner. $48.50 represented the increase in YMCA funds nt the conclusion of that dinner. The YMCA, almost entirely a barb organization, does not limit its mem bership to barb men. Fraternity men are invited and welcomed to partake of YM activities, in fact a fraternity man holds one of the most influential offices in the organisation. Guided by Mr. C. D. Hayes, university YMCA general secretary, this group can do more good socially than any other organization on this campus if students will get behind ifand push. The group cannot operate without money, and the amounts donated to it by organized houses and other groups are well spent, altho unreasonably puny. Without the YMCA on this campus, or any other university campus for that matter, hundreds of students would be deprived of all opportunity to make social contacts, to enjoy university life iu a fuller measure. Inquiring reporter Barbs generally paper but offer By Paul Dinnis. To determine the opinion of barb students as to their new publica tion, The Barb, a cross section of affiliated students was polled last week by the DAILY NEBRAS KAN. Representative opinions from five men and five women show more general approval than disap proval of the new publication. Eeth Howley, arts senior: The paper is a fine thing. Everything in it concerns barbs. Barbs will be attracted by it to participate in activities. Janet Harris, teachers senior: I think The Barb will prove itself worthy by bringing unaffiliated students into closer contact. Bob Wallin, bizad junior: I think it is about time there was a paper on the campus that repre cents barbs. It should strengthen the barb organization. Tom McCandless, bizad junior: I think that there should be no separation between Barbs and Greeks on the campus. The paper separates them. What there should be is a nonpartisan paper, Motrin Gottschalg, bizad junior: I don't think the paper will be sue cessful because the current news from day to day can't appear in it, and that is what students are interested in. Most of the con tents of the paper are in the form of announcements which could be printed in the DAILY NEBRAS KAN. Ross Blythe. engineering col lege freshman : As for giving facts. it is okay.

Elizabeth Clark, teachers junior: The publication of campus news should officially be left to the of ficial campus paper, the DAILY NEBRASKAN. If a strictly barb paper is to exist, it snouia con tain only announcements concern ing barb activities. Geraldine wetber, teachers sophomore: The paper will serve a good purpose. It could be a larger paper. More pictures or smaller size would be an improvement.

Faculty contributions leave the student-solicited share of the fund relatively small, and one which should be raised very easily. Yet they have a difficult time reaching its goal. Fraternities and sororities, campus activity groups like Corn Cobs, Inno cents, Mortar Boards, Kosmet Klub, the barb council, the Student Council would do themselves justice if they contributed nominal sums to the Y cam paign. Some of them do contribute and set a good example which the oiners ought to follow. Once again, it's the old line about not seeing a show this week, or bum ming your cigarettes for a while as far as individual students are concerned. Most students won't miss the few cents they should give, however, even in, the short run. Let's all jpush together and make this a real all-university campaign! The YMCA deserves your contribution and its thanks will be more cincero and honest than those of the recipients of most of your dollars. Dear Editor 29 October, 1940 , Editor. DAILY NEBRASKAN Lincoln, Nebraska Dear Sir: In a recent issue of the TJAILY NEBRASKAN .there appeared on the editorial age an unsigned editorial representing one side of an obviously partisan controversy, namely, the third term. I assume that the opinion therein expressed is tne opinion or me eauor. It is possible, I Buppo.se, mat it is good taste in journalism to rep resent one side of a partisan dis pute and to thereby pass judgment on the respective merits of that controversy. But for a college publication of the type of the DAILY NEBRASKAN to pursue J Partiflan P011 te Aftcr Emitting the existence of an important political issue by commenting on the third term, the editorial takes the privilege of drawing a conclusion without prc- senting both sides of question, rne controversy is brushed aside light- ly as being of no seriousness, and tne assertion is maoe uiai uie no- . . . JUZ I repeat, to pursue such a policy is grossly unfair.

But tne editor is in a responsible position. He should not abuse that position by publishing one side of an obvi ously partisan controversy, especi ally when the editorial is em bellished by inadequate and poorly reasoned arguments. If the editor of the DAILY NE BRASKAN desires a critical ex amination of the third term con troversy, there is ample material and talent available for represent ing the other side of the question. And in the interests of fairness, both sides of the issue should be presented. For this reason I sug gest that the DAILY NEBRAS KAN was grossly unfair in pre senting the third term issue in the manner mentioned above, and I protest against such unfairness.
