proposed budget "necessary for
a successful prom."
Pieper said his appeal stemmed
from Tuesday night's meeting of
the Junior-Senior Class Board, at
which members showed "a great
deal of enthusiasm" for sponsor
ing a successful prom, and thus,
"justifying their existence, in a
sense."
Results of the poll, as reported
by Pieper, indicated that, of 462
students polled, 339 favored hold
ing a Junior-Senior Prom. Four
hundred thirty students said they
would attend the prom H a na
tionally well known band were
playing. If a band such as a re
gionally well known band were
playing, the poll showed that 191
students would attend, and 205
would not. One hundred thirty-
two indicated they would attend
if a local band were playing and
282 said they would not attend.
Of the 462 polled, Pieper said,
those favoring an informal prom
totaled 322, while 119 wanted it
formal.
The poll also included a pref
erence rating of possible places
to hold a prom. The vote on
this point was: Turnpike, 157;
and Coliseum, 54.
Pieper informed the Council
that proms in past years have
been "anything but successful."
He said last year class officers
and Class Council members un
derwrote the prom and had to
pay $10.80 apiece.
Jim Collins, speaking as a
Junior Class Council member,
said he felt a "definite respon
sibility" to the members of his
class to make the prom a suc
cess. At Tuesday night's meet
ing, at which the Class Board
discussed its continued exist
ence, Collins said he would be
"the last to resign" in case the
Board felt its existence was not
warranted.
Other Board members at Tues
day's meeting indicated that if
no prom were held, there would
be little reason for class officers
and Council members. For this
reason, Pieper said, the Board
members put their full support
behind the proposed prom,

Immediately after the Council
meeting Wednesday, three Class
Board members conferred with
Duane Lake, managing director
of the Union, in regard to joint
sponsorship of the prom. Lake
said he planned to submit to the
Union Activities Board a plan for
a joint Union-Class Board spon

Truman Makes Final Report
WASHINGTON President Truman predicted that the United
States can achieve production of half a trillion dollars annually
within a decade if it beats a potentially serious threat of despression
after this year. The President made this statement in his last major
message to Congress, the annual economic report.
Truman ignored the split in his Council of Economic Advisers
which disagree on the outlook for deflation in the next three years
when defense spending is due to taper off. He followed the con
clusion reached by Chairman Leon Keyeserling and Robert C.
Turner that if government and business move wisely and promptly
to expand markets, the post-defense dip can be helu to proportions
they termed "manageable."
Truman's message dwelt on economic progress since 1929, a
period roughly corresponding to that of his party's tenure in the
White House. He emphasized the protections against economic col
lapse which have been developed in that period and cautioned
President-Elect Eisenhower and the new Republican Congress
against reducing foreign military or economic aid "sharply or pre
maturely." Watershed Bills Introduced
LINCOLN A biJI for "home rule" watersheds was introduced
in the Nebraska Legislature by six state senators Wednesday. The
bill is designed to allow the formation of watershed districts to com
bat flood and soil erosion in the areas where the dangers originate.
It is a result of a Legislative Council committee study authorized
after a previous watershed bill was killed by a split vote of the
1951 Public Works Committee.
Under the new plan, a watershed district would be initiated by
the filing of a petition with the county clerk. A majority of votes
cast at an election after a public hearing would create the district.
Tax Measure Entered
LINCOLN The first highway revenue measure was introduced
in the State Legislature Wednesday. Sen. Terry Carpenter of
Scottsbluff introduced a 2 per cent sales tax bill for highway con
struction. The tax would be effective from Oct. 1, 1953 until Sept.
30, 1955, with aii the revenue, above the cost of collection, scing
into the highway cash fund.
By matching the fund with Federal funds, it could mean $80
million for highway construction in Nebraska. The tax would
apply to goods ftold at retail in Nebraska, to services such as gas,
electricity and water, and to goods bought outside tha state for use
in this state.

The Student Council Wednes
day afternoon defeated a pro
posed amendment to the by-laws
of the Council's constitution which
would have outlawed the use of
ticket prerequisite" in choos'
ing "finalists
for any campus
election."
In its place Dean Linscott,
chairman of the elections com
mittee, proposed an amendment
to the special elections article of
the by-laws.
The amendment provided:
1. "Only students with iden
tification cards will be allowed
to vote."
2. "A voter will be allowed to
cast one ballot."
3. "A ballot may not be in
cluded on a ticket."
According to the Council's con
stitution the proposed amendment
will come before the Council at
its next meeting, Feb. 4.
Linscott presented the new
amendment as a recommendation
of the elections committee after
an investigation of present ticket
elections.
The proposed amendment "will
work," he said. "It will satisfy
parties on both sides of the argu
ment. It will not stop ticket bal
loting, but it will stop the unfair
practices earned on."
He referred to charges that or
ganized houses purchase large
numbers of ticket ballots and dis
tribute them with the name of
their candidates written on the
ticket.
He said that he thought the
three provisions would answer
most of the objections of the wom
en's houses supporting abolition
of ticket balloting and also satisfy
the organizations now using tne
practice.
Linscott presented tne repon
of his committee on investiga
tion of election methods. The
committee conducted hearings
at which representatives of
Coed Counselors, Kosmet Klub,
Builders, All University Fund
and Junior-Senior Class Board
presented information and opin
ions concerning their respective
ticket-ballot elections.
Coed Counselors, the committee
reported, has been "very lenient
in the number of tickets allowed
to one student" in voting for the
outstanding booth at its Penny
Carnival. Ticket voting counts 40
per cent in selection of the booth,
60 per cent being determined by
faculty judges.
The committee reported that the

favor of a compromise solution
resembling the amendment pre

tified, however, that Counselors

function if ticket balloting wert
banned.
Kosmet Klub told the com
mittee that banning ticket bal
loting would cut receipts of Its

ated but the quality of Its pro

Klub said.
