Thursday, April 1C, 1914 NOT A JOKE. Tho DAILY NISBRASKAN'S Popular Girl Contest Ih not u Joke. In our stater universities the choosing of tho most popular girl Ih tin annual event of much IntoroHt. It tins become one of the traditions of theso schools. We believed that such a contest was not out of harmony with student interest in the Univorslty of Nebraska. Wo sincerely hope that there will be nono of the child's play which so often characterizes similar contests in high schools and minor colleges vot ing for some man for spite. No votes for ftny man will bo considered or their totals published. Tills is a popu -lar-.CrIIU;r-eontet nndnol an u'pp'OTTVcTBU'y tunlty for childish pranks. ACTION, FRE8HMEN. The DAILY NBI3RASKAN would like to know why Russell Allen, presi dent of the rreshman clasB, has not called the class together to olect repre sentatives to tho student council con vention. To us there is no oxcuse for such negligence The other classes lnivo acted nono to soon. But the freshmen are holding up all further action. This is positively indefensible. Hotice4ias been given time after time. The necessity Tor immediate action on this question is known to all. And yet Mr. Allen has not called a meet ing to elect freshman delegates. What, excuse is there to offer?

Student government at tho Univer sity is not perfect. No ono would af firm that Improvement Is impossible. Permanency In purposo and stability In membership are desirable qualities In the councils. Any changes which i would Improve 'self-government in those roBpects are worthy of discus sion.
