Student Request . . .
At the Student Council meeting Wednesday afternoon
a motion was passed to have the secretary write a letter
to Dean T. J. Thompson concerning student representation
on the faculty committee on student affairs and social
functions.
The proposed committee member would be elected from
the Student Council body and would be able to present a
picture of student sentiment and opinion as represented
by the council.
We wish to go on record as favoring such an addition
to the faculty committee. In fact, we are amazed that the
faculty committee does not include student representation
on a group that directly concerns student affairs and so
cial functions or that recent Student Councils have not
proposed this action.
It seems, since the decisions of this committee do con
cern students so vitally, that the faculty representatives
should also favor student membership in order to gain a
general knowledge of student interest and opinion.
We hope that Dean Thompson and the committee will
be receptive to the Student Council's request and that they
will not only consider it seriously but will act upon it.

BY VAN WESTOVER
It's the woman who pays and
winds up behind the eight ball
tonight when the tables are
turned and 17 Senior women
throw the annual Mortar Board
Ball at the Coliseum. Drummer
man Krupa will swing the baton
for dancing. Marge Alexis has
asked Ray Simmons, Adele Dov
ey will escort Ed Maryott in a
moving van, while Fritz Simpson
will be led around on a leash
held by Jo Davidson.
Before the Ball, the Mortar
Boards and their dates will dine
at the Cornhusker. Gathered
around the table will be such
wheels as Norm Leger who is the
date of Marian Crook, Floyd
Cardinal and Lois Gillett, How
ard Lamb and Jo Kcllenbarger,
and Stanton Vierk and Marion
McEIhaney.
The Beta Sigs are predicting
that Fred Chael will come home
from his date with Edith Roes
sler tonight minus his fraternity
pin since this is the first time
that Edith has had the chance to
be the aggressive member of the
duo.
Long Distance Runner
Bob Cable has been leading in
the merry chase which Dot Wor
den started and she may catch
him in time to take him to the
Ball. Dot's sorority sisters say that
she has never put so much en
ergy into one single effort before
in all her life.
In spite of a five minute limit
for all telephone calls at her
sorority house, Susie Philpot
talks for two hours at a shot each
night with a different man. The
quesion is: Do the men call her
or does she call them?

MEMBERS OF ALPHA KAPPA PSI, professional business
fraternity, view noodles on a conveyor belt as they are manu
factured at the Skinner Manufacturing company in Omaha. The
complete manufacturing process was shown and explained dur
ing their tour through the plant. Onlookers include Harold Mc
Nare, Oliver Meninger, Earl Dunning, Remy Smith, Gerald Ma
son, Orville Muenchau, Philip James and Dwayne Pullen.
Members of Alpha Kappa Psi,
professional business fraternity,
and faculty members of the col
lege of business administration re
cently made an industrial tour of
several business establishments in
Omaha. Faculty members who
went on the tour included R. M.
Bourne, Emory Burnett, Curtis
Elliott, G. L. Mattson, L. S. Rob
ertson, E. B. Schmidt and R. M.
Strahl.
Group Visits Exchange
The tour started with a visit to
the Omaha stockyards exchange.
Ed Janike, secretary of the ex
change and former instructor of
animal husbandry at the univer
sity college of agriculture, told
the group how the livestock is
brought in from the farms, sold
by the commission firms and deal
ers to the buyers and how the
owner then receives payment for
his livestock within a period of
approximately 24 hours.
Janike stressed the fact that the
Omaha exchange is truly a com
petitive livestock market for the
establishment of prices because it
has a large enough supply to
bring the maximum of competi
tive buying. The buying and sell
ing of livestock in the market is
a private treaty. Without written
agreement or contract or down
payment, it is a system of trade
based on "old-fashioned" in
tegrity. The group also visited the
Armour meat packing plant where
the meat packing process was wit
nessed from the slaughtering of
the animal to the preparation of
the finished product for shipment.
At the Skinner Manufacturing
company, the complete process of
the manufacture of macaroni,
spaghetti and noodles was shown
and explained. The brewing, ag
ing, storing and bottling of beer
was seen at the Storz Brewing
company.
Faculty and Members Entertained
During the noon hour the fra
ternity members and faculty were
guests of the Omaha chamber of
commerce at a luncheon. Ross
Frampton, socrc'ary of the junior
chamber, and Howard Shinrock,
industrial manager of the cham
ber of commerce, nddressed the
group. Shinrock told how the
chamber encourages companies to
come to Nebraska but said that
the principal drawback at the
present is the lack of adequate
building facilities to house such
companies.
