THE DAILY NEBRASKA!
Let's Get Together . . .
Out of the current political turmoil on campus has
come the final realization that the campus is definitely in
need of more social activities which are for the University
not for one social group, or campus organization, or de
partment club but for the entire student body.
Seeing the need for further activity along this line
and giving the entire student body the chance to come to
gether as students of the University, members of Mortar
Board, senior women's honorary, are sponsoring an informal
get-together Friday afternoon in the Union ballroom. It
is not just a tea dance or an occasion contrived to enable
Mortar Board to give recognition to seniors who have Con
tributed largely to the field of student activities.
While there will be dancing and awards made to de
serving seniors, the "Masque Ade" is a worthy effort to
bring students together as students outside the classroom.
There will be a representative of the coaching staff on hand
to emphasize the importance of student support and spirit
in athletics. Students will see two skits representative of
all hard work that goes into the AWS Co-ed Follies, tradi
tionally restricted to women students.
Any profits which might be derived from the "Masque
Ade" will be used by Mortar Board to grant student scholar
ships and finance Ivy Day, the University's oldest and best
known tradition.
The keynote of the affair is informality. The get
together should prove to students that they can come to
gether for an afternoon of pleasant relaxation for the pur
pose of having fun. It should further prove that students
may be just as anxious to share a feeling of unity in a
social way as they are in acquiring such needs as adequate
parking and sufficient time to prepare for final exams.
With student population of over 10,000, the job of
creating unity among students is an extremely difficult
one. However, if steps are taken in that direction now,
one may find that in several years' time when enrollment
has decreased that the means for creating this unity will
have been greatly assisted by the foresight and consequent
action of previous groups.

FLOOD WATERS continued to
dominate the news as more rivers
in Nebraska and Iowa overflowed
their banks. Beatrice was bearing
the brunt of flooding Big Blue
river. The waters were already
eight feet above the flood stag;
and were still rising.
Nine highways were blocked
Tuesday and trains either can
celled service or were rerouted.
People were still fleeing their
homes around Crete and Beatrice.
The only consolation the weather
man could give was the possibility
of colder weather which has been
reported for tonight.
FOUR TOP defendants in the
Communist Bulgarian spy trials
were sentenced to life imprison
ments as the trails were nearing
their end. All accused of spying
for the United States and Great
Britain, the defendants were
Protestant churchmen.
Diplomats revealed Monday
night what they declared were the
main details of the North Atlantic
Security Alliance. The treaty is
expected to be signed sometime in
late March. Three points were
disclosed. They are: Immediate
help to any member in case of
attack; mutual a.d in the prepara
tion of defense; and consultation
if there seems any danger of
attack.

THE SHIFT in the Ru.ssjun cab-
Dear Editor:
Since. our nation has inherited most of its cultural and political
institutions from England, and since the political, economic, and social
conditions on this campus closely resemble those in England at the
time of the formation of its government, we respectfully offer for
your consideration a proposal by which the University of Nebraska
might pattern its "representative" government after the noble exam
ple of Great Britain. We propose:
1. That a bicameral legislative assembly be founded consisting
of an "upper" and a "lower" house, which shall respectively
be known as the House of Greeks and the House of Commons;
2. That the President of the upper house be acclaimed King of
the University of Nebraska Commonwealth of Lords and
Lowlies;
3. That all members of the upper house shall hereafter bear the
title of "Lord" or "Lady";
4. That the society of Innocents shall constitute the Most High
Privy Council and that the Mortar Board shall be the Keepers
of the Privy Seal; the above mentioned members shall be
known as Dukes and Duchesses;
5. That the Corncobs and Tassels shall be elevated to positions
of Solicitors of the King's Exchequer;
6. That the president of the Interfraternity Council shall here
after hold the office of Court Jester; and the above said coun
cil shall be known as the King's "pages";
7. That the secretary of the Faculty Senate shall be known as
the Leader of the Royal Opposition;
8. That the president of the Student Foundation shall be known
as Minister of Foreign Affairs;
9. That the editor of The Daily Nebraskan shall hold the office
Minister of Greek Propaganda;
10. That all members of the organized houses of "nobility" shall
be adiressed as Knights and Ladies;
11. That all pledges to above mentioned societies shall be Vassals
and Ladies-in-waiting;
12. And that all above mentioned titles and honors shall be
passed to later generations according to the law of primo
reniture hereafter to be known as legacies.
Done this eighth day of March in the year of the Lord nineteen
hundred and forty-nine.

Dear Editor:
The latest decision of the faculty committee on student organizations
and social functions to throw a monkey wrench into the average
student's activities certainly deserves criticizing. I am referring to the
committee's refusal to let a freshman girl appear in the "All-American
College Freshman" contest.
There is no denying that some girl here at the University of
Nebraska is being cheated out of a great chance. The girl that won
the local contest would have received one-hundred dollars and a free
trip to Hollywood and back with a chaperone. At Hollywood she
would have competed with fourteen other college freshmen for top
honors and more prizes. All other fourteen schools invited to enter
have welcomed the chance and have accepted.
The reason given by the faculty committee for refusal was that
the contest was not in accordance with University policy, since it is
for commercial gains. But who would gain more from such a con
test than the girl, herself?
I think that in all fairness the faculty committee should recon
sider this matter, and, if it is going to refuse its permission, it should
present a better reason than it alicady lias.
Sincerely,
J.ick Ban. hart
