Several constitutions and many letters have been analyzed and the material "pigeon holed" In trying to get definite plans for Nebraska use. The Investi gation shows that there are three pos sible, plans: First, a council might be organized which would control all lines of University activity, Including the athletic board, publication board, etc.; second, a body which would con trol merely the ordinary or more gen eral activities, that, Is much the same work' 08 is now done by tho Innocents sad" the Black Masques; third, no council' at all the present system.

CAMP PETITI0N8 FROZEN BY COLD WEATHER Interest Expected to Rise With the Coming of Warmer Days. Tho beautiful flakeB of solidified moisture which fell rapidly yesterday afternoon put a quietus on the aspira tions of those who worq engaged in circulating the camp petitions. Cold weather does not appeal as camp weather and the avorago soldier can not Imagine "nlco May warmth" when his fingers are frozen and his oars half nipped. Sleeping on the warm, crisp hay Is not full of Inviting Bonsa tlons, either, during the same winter conditions. However, the Interest Is not all gone and the officers in charge will con tinue to push the matter till tho neces sary signatures are acquired.

It is truly pitiful how we Nobras- kans aro kept In constant uncertainty by the weather. Hero a few of us glrlB bad fondly hoped to blqssom out In spring hats and now wo are forced to don our old wooly caps of long standing. Besides that, we an com pelled to uso so much powder to ren der Intelliglblo our countenances after a sprint out in the wild. The boys have to fall bock on the old striped maekinaws and get their winter aspects on along with their mittens. Every professor comes late to hlB class, and gives forth his feeble explanation whllq he tries to catch his breath. But this wintry weather is, hardoat on tho fussers who had planned all sorts of gayety while thq warmth laslr ed. It certainly is a stout heart that will takq a damsel fussing now and leave her In the inviting warmth of the doorway to plod homo for seven teen blocks, Besides!" there's no standing on porches in the shade of the pillars. The atmosphqro is not conduclvo to bliss in apy fqrm. Wo will have to grin and) bear it and keep. our spirits up, and let us bopo we'll soon bo on the green turf rooting for spring.
