NEW STAFF TO BE ELECTED
Editorial Staff Will Be Elected by
Student Vote Only One Man
Is Out for Editor-in-Chief
-
The election of the Editorial staff
of the Daily Nebraskan to determine
who shall edit the paper the first se
mester of next year will be held
Thursday in the west end of the Arm
ory. Opportunities to make entries for
the race closed formally at 12 o'clock
Monday noon, but to give opportunity
for more to enter and for changes In
the entries already made, time was
extended by the board to 11 o'clock
Tuesday morning. The board then
held a meeting to consider the entries
made and the following list will be
submitted to the voters: "
R. V. Koupal is candidate for editor-in-chief;
for managing editor, Orville
Chatt Everett J. Althouse, and
Charles E. Paul; woman associate
editor, Doris Slater; man associate
editor, A. J. Covert and Emil J. Kra
hulik. Those entering are among the most
popular students in school and a
warm election, where competition is
possible, will probably take place.
R. V. Koupal is the only one entered
for editor-in-chief, so -has a sure race.
He is, however, undoubtedly capable
of filling the position ably. He was
acting managing editor of the paper
one semester, is a member of Sigma
Phi Epsilon and of Sigma Delta Chi
fraternities, and is president of the
Commercial Club.
Orville Chatt is a Junior Law stu
dent. Everett Althouse has reported on
the Nebraskan one semester and is a
member of the non-commissioned staff
in the Military department.
Charles E. Paul was reporter on the
staff one semester, has had some jour
nalistic experience on a newspaper,
and is a member of Acacia fraternity.
Doris Slater is the only candidate
for woman associate editor, but she
has filled her position as associate
editor the last semester creditably
and will undoubtedly fill it as well
next semester. Miss Slater is a mem
ber of the Girls' Club and is a Silver
Serpent.
For the man associate editorship,
A. J. Covert has filed. He has served
as reporter on the staff the past se
mester, is a member of Delta Chi fra
ternity, and captain of Company H.
Emil J. Krahulik is a member of the
Cornhusker staff, is a member of
Sigma Nu fraternity and of the Pre
Medic Clnb. '
Competition for managing editor
and .for the man associate' editor is
keen and support is being looked for
from every available source. This is
the second time the staff has been
elected by the popular vote of the
subscribers, so it is up to them for
their own personal benefit to select
as capable a staff as the outgoing
regime.

toothbrush do you want?"
