"ANOTHER VERSION."
It Is a gonorally recognized fact that
every nowspapor story has a boquoI.
It now becomes ovldont that thiB rule
extends, In tho caso of tho Dally No
braskan. evon to tho editorial column.
Tho following contribution gives an
other vorBlty of tho "Library stops," a
version which smacks strangely of
Owen Johnson, Georgo Fitch and bov
oral other contributors to that publica
tion with "a circulation of irtoro than
a million and three-quarters":
"The Library steps were planned
originally to aBHiBt people In finding
tho Library. But after tho building
was completed tho students discovered
that they mado an excellent rendez
vous, and now they aro tho hubtiround
which University lovo affairs revolve
OutBldo of Conway's cigar store, it is
tho spot In which most of the political
"frame-upB" aro mado.
"To a stranger stopping near tho
Library, when classes aro dismissed,
It would seem that Nebraska Is a
girl's school. Occasionally a fright
ened malo person Is "Hushed up," butH
he disappears quickly
Tho Library steps servo as a sort of
feminine round table in which a great
many girls gather and discuss white
goods sales, sorority policy and so
ciety, after while they "swap" gum
and enter the library On these
library stops a great many historical
events have taken place It was here
that Miss Taffy cut her dates with
the Oh. Mys. and, cast her lot with
tho Omegas Sighs, and where "Doc"
Sprinkles and "Egg-head" Welch
fought out tho war of tho roses (and
carnations) for tho favor of a fair
young thing who later married a
KansaB City lard salesman.
"Hero on tho Bteps aro wont to con
gregate certain students, so-called,
who bocome chilled at tho long rows
of ominous books Inside, which bcoVi
to reach out their hands and beckon
opportunity. Thoso selfsame studentB
mako tholr appearance about 9:30
p. m. and roost around on tho stopB
waiting for the littlo mlsB studiously
employed within; pull out a surreptl
ous cigar, and wondor if, after they
graduate they can got a Job soiling
plows, whllo liiBldo Bho wonders If all
that history Ib necessary for a teach
er's certificate. And while ho Is In the
mldBt of his Inauguration speech, she
comes out, and ho caches tho "smoke"'
and wakes up.
"Tho Library. Bteps havo boon the
source of more party and theatre dates
than any other portion of the Univer
sity, and when wo as grey-haired
alumni shall return, and look upon
thoso well-worn stonoB, and think of
tho thouaandB of feet that havo passed,
over them, of mon In congTCBB, In Jail,
men who havo mado good, and tho

Including calls over tho 'phono for

havo been seen later hanging the
dross suit on tho branches of a treo
In tho front yard.
No, It wasn't a real fire. A fresh

ply forgotten to leave open a certain
damper. In fact, ho had been so
sleepy that he had merely shoveled
In all tho coal ho thought the -boys

HORSE RUMORED.
At 11:30 today tho Freshmen will
hold their Bocond semester election

very littlo excitement attending tho
election of officers. No candidates,
other than McCullough, has as yet
been announced Tor president. There
Is some talk that thero is a dark horso
in tho field, but that seems unfound
ed. At least McCullough has met no
obstacles so far and his adherents ex
pect a sure victory in spite of any
opposition that may be advanced at
this late date. Virginia Mosely, Alpha
Phi, I91f), has been announced as a
candidate for the vice-presidency.
These are tho only contestants for tho
first year offices now in the field.
