TUESDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1915 THEY WOULD BE NICE It was suggested at the "Mixer" the other evening that a re freshing breeze from a series of electric fans placed in suitable places throughout Memorial Hall would tend wonderfully to relieve that oppressive feeling. We cherish the fond hope that those in authority will perchance read this plea for the welfare of the student body. Realizing the direct benefit of these "Mixers" could it be that so small an outlay of money would be withheld from sw worthy a cause! Surely not. Another good move. No gentlemen, without partners, will be admitted at the "Welcome Ball" Friday evening. WATER BUT NONE TO DRINK It will not be firing beside the mark to mention that the drink ing fountains in Memorial Hall were not in working order the even ing of the "Mixer," a time when they were indeed necessary. Who's Who James Whitcomb Riley will celebrate his 66th birthday in Indiana on the 7th of October. SAME OLD STORY It seems that other schools have a difficulty similar to that ex perienced here. Notice this quotation from the Iowa State Student: "Hereafter the editor of the Iowa State Student will be appointed instead of elected by the student body, as has been the custom heretofore. Really now, which is the better way? "It takes years to gain a reputation that can be lost in a minute." This being the case, some young men must hav urait against, mem m men rcjsuiaiiuu atcuuui. re an over- POLITICS Feople seem to take for granted that anyone in the Nebraskan office can tell them anything at any time. Someone was bold enough yesterday to ask a member of the staff how the elections were going to turn out. What could be harder than to answer Mich a question? FORUM For the past week rumors have been flying thick and fast concerning the, Spikes. It has been said they were! running this year under a new name. As far as the old Spikes are concerned there is no such Freshman organiza tion this year, nor will there be in the future. As a result of the action taken by the Pan-Hellenic council the Spikes were disbanded in the spring of 1915. R. J. WHITE. CANDIDATES' ANNOUNCEMENTS Following Statements Are Published in Accordance With the Usual Custom According to the usual pre-election custom the Nebraskan is publishing the statements of candidates. Tn announcing my candidacy for Sophomore President I wish to state that in accordance with the wishes of the fairer minded students, I will re main away from the voting polls as far as possible. I want every one to vote for whom they consider the best man instead of at the dictation of some one else. I also wish it under stood that I want no "Barb-Frat" issue but a Sophomore issue. Every body out and vote. , GEORGE A. WILBY. In announcing my candidacy for Sophomore President, I with it to be understood that I stand for clean poli tics and will not be at the polls dur ing election, and abide by the rules oi the Registrar. All Sophomores will turn out and vote according to their own minds without influence by electioneering. EVERETT AXGLE. WELCOME BALL . HAS MiANY PATRONS (Continued from page r) Mr. and 'Mrs. B. B.
