STUDENT COUNCIL TO ;
PROMOTE SINGLE TAX
Will Also Encourage Movement to
ABollsh Cheating Committee
Are Appointed.
The Single Tax ia to be promoted
by the Student Council, according to
the decision made at a called meet
ing of the council yesterday aftei
noon. The program to be undertak
en by the Student Council in the next
few weeks is an extensive one and
includes, not only the spreading oi
propaganda favoring the Single Tax
system, but also the encouraging of
the movement to abolish cheating.
President Laurence Metsgar ap
pointed Dan Harper, chairman; Janet
Maitland, Leonard Waterman, Virgil
Acton and Marjorie Barstow as tho
committee to further the proposition
of the Single Tax.
Tho Board of Regents has required
that, before they will consider a pcti
tion for the Single Tax, a represent
ative number of students must shov
their desire for the tax by voting.
The question of the Single Tax was
presented to the student body once
before and the outcome was favor
able to haviug the system, but so fe-"
voted that the Board of Regents did
not consider that tho petition pre
sented to them was representative of
the student feeling. The slogan cf
this campaign is to be, "A 100 pel
cent vote for tho Single Tax." Dtuc
Engberg has said: "Nothing stand in
the way of the Single Tax syttota
now that we have the accommoda
tions (Coliseum)."
The committee is going to try.
by presenting tho movement through
the Daily Nebraskan, by talking be
fore all campus organizations and by
having mass meetings, to make earli
student so interested in the Single
Tux question that he will be sure
to get out and voto for it. The S'u
dent Council will determine an stl
mate of the amount of the tax in ad
dition to the fee, which each student
will have to pay at registration am",
will make known the Univtrsily
events to which this tax will admit
the student.
Leonard Waterman, chalrmr.n. Pau
Cook, Margaret Henderson and Il ''n
Dunlap are the members of the com
mittee appointed to go to the officers
of campus clubs and associations and
to encourage all organizations to
stanJ together in forwarding tho
movement to abolish cheating from

BOWLING
AFTER VACATION
Sixteen Fraternities Are Entered In
the Contest to Be Played at
Lincoln Alleys.
SOME RULE3 ARE CHANGED
Sigma Nu Won Championship Last
Year Loving Cup and Skin
Goes to the Winners.
The inter-fraternity bowling cham
pionship will bo decided the first
c-ek following spring vacation when
the various Greek organizations meet
lor the annual event.
Tlio preliminary round wili be
l-iayed on Tuesday evening at 7:30.
All of tho contests will take place on
iho Lincoln alleys. The final four
gi.nus of the first round will come
Wednesday evening and the entire
second round will take place Thurs
day evening.
Semi-finals in tho tournament will
bo fought out Friday afternoon in3
the final and Championship contests
will be played Saturday afteinoon
Sixteen of the Nebraska frateruitics
have entered five-men teams for tlM
classic.
Rules Are Changed.
A few changes in the rules govern
ing the tournament have been insti
tuted. Previous to this year the team
with the largest number of pins to
their credit was the winner of the
three-game series regardless of tlte
number of games won. The team wi
ning the best two out of three of the
games regardless of the total of pinb
will be the winner is one of the im
portant changes instituted.
Another important rule will be in
regard to the foul line. It was thought
at first that the foul line cou'd b
abolished but the management ot Uia
Lincoln alleys has requested the com
mittee to warn all of the men regaid
lug this and there will be a penalty
for stepping over the black line. Se
oral of the fraterniiies failed to get
their entry fees in at the required
timo and could not be accepted by
the committee in charge.
Sigma Nu captured the skin last
year by defeating the Acacias in U
finals. Bolh of these organization
are putting strong teams into the
tournament this year and the conip
tition furnished by some of the other
teams entered should make the affair
a battle l'rom start to finish. In aud
tion to the skin that will be pra
sented to the fraternity Vinning thB
championship, a loving cup will bj
purchased and presented to the wi-
ners. The regulations in reeaid to
the cup will be tho same as thosfi
that affect the basket ball trophy.
The cup will be retained by the fra
ternity winning the championship for
one year and the fraternity capturing
the pennant three years in su&ce-
sion will become the permanent poa
sessor of the cup.
