PUNS OF COUNCIL
BOUNDING INTO SHAPE
Meeting Last Night Thorough Dis
cussion of Problem Three
Different Methods.
The committee on student council
plans met again last night. They con
tinued the discussion of systems used
at other universities and tried to
formulate some definite plan of action
for Nebraska- AH Information re
ceived has been tabulated and placed
In form for rapid reference. 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.
The third plan is, of course, given no
consideration. Nebraska is familiar
with, ka workings.

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. Con

BEWAILS THE WEATHER
Tough on Fussers Professors Lata to
Classes All Because of This
Weather.
It is truly pitiful how we Nobras-
kans aro kept In constant uncertainty
by the weather. Hero a few of us

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
