REPUBLICAN CLUB
CALLS FOR L'EMBERS
Wants Every C O. P. Univer-

The University of Nebraska Re

of Nebraska Republican club and
will take active part in receiving and
welcoming speakers of the Republi
can party to tbe University.
Republican clubs have been or
ganized in all of the large univer
sities and colleges in the United
States. A drive for members is
instituted in every cnUegc and uni
versity to line up tbe men and wo
men of tbe Republican party into
a compact organization. A Nation
al association of collegiate Republi
can clubs has been established and
correlates the movements of tbe
various clubs. A competitive cam
paign for members is being waged
by the clubs of the eastern and
middle-western schools for the larg
est enrollment.
Every man and woman in the Uni-
vtrrity, regardless of age, who de
sires to join the Nebraska club will
be given an opportunity to do so.

hall on the fiast floor of the Social
Science building and also at tbe
State Farm, in which students de
firing to join may deposit a slip
bearing the name, home address
and city address. If more conveni

ner, Robert F. Craig, Jack Whitten,
Welch Pogue, Sheldon Tefft, Fran
cis Weintz and Gertrude Twrcson.
Report Indicates Favor of Single
Tax Since Definite Plan is Made
Camnus opinion concerning the
single tax seems to have changed
since a definite plan has been an
nounced. Of thirty-six students- in
terviewed yesterday, ths reporter
found thirty-three in favor of the
tax. The students who voiced their
opinion had changed their minds in
most cases, sine the provisional al
lotment of the funds raised from the
tax was published.
A reporter found last week that
twenty-four of twenty-seven students
interviewed were against the plan.

rection of William T. Quick, con
ductor.
The band was assisted by the Uni
versity quartet. Several solos were

ied by the band. Neil McDowell

Ag Engineers to
Convene in Lincoln
Lincoln will be the scene of the
1924 convention of the American So
ciety of Agricultural Engineers. Be
cause the attendance is largely mtde
up of college men, it will be held in
June, probably 18, 19 and 20.
Membership in this society is large
in tbe University department of ag
ricultural engineering. s. Manufac
turers of Lincoln are also represent
ed. There will be a student repre
sentation at tbe convention. .
One objection to the tax system as
proposed was that no provision was
made for a University Players ticket.
A member of the student council ex
plained the omission by saying that
the University Players was a corpor
ation and if it joined in the system
it could not present certain royalty
plays as it had in the past. It was
at the request of the Players that
they were left out of the list.
Few Would Ht It Compulsory.
Two of the students who objected
to the plan as it has been proposed
gave as their reason 'that it should
be compulsory instead of optional.
Both were in favor of the plan other
wise. The other dissenter thought
that the idea was all right in theory
but would never work out in prac
tice, mainly because their would not
be sufficient student support.
One student summed up the gen
eral opinion of the people interviewed
when he said, "The single tax will be
much cheaper for the average stu
dent and will relieve him from being
pestered at every turn with some
new drive. Moreover, it will make
for better campus spirit as all Uni
versity activities will be supported
and hacked as they should he."
A co-ed brought out the idea that
it would save all the students in ac
tivities a considerable amount of
time that they have heretofore had
to spend in campaigning in every
drive that comes to the school. "Any
student who is in activities knows
that he or she is expected to help
put every drive over the top and this
takes so much time that school work
has to suffer many times."
A member of the faculty said that
he had favored the plan for several
years and was glad to see interest
taken in it again. "I am heartily in
favor of the idea that has worked so
well in cities as the Community
Chest," he added.
JUNIOR-SENIOR PROM
WILL BE INFORMAL
Plan for Traditional Dance to
Take Form of Spring:
Party.
At a roe ting last night, the Junior
Senior Prom committee decided to
hold an informal May party instead
of the proposed prom. The proba
ble date for the party is May 10. The
change was made because the only
night available for the traditional
formal was the night before Easter
and tbe committee felt that it was
not a desirable time.
Since the only open dates other
than April 19 are in May, it was de
cided that the party could not be a
formal. The party as planned will
be in tbe nature of a spring party
with special decorations and attrac
tions. Underclassmen will probably
be admitted, the junior and senior
classes acting through their commit
tee as sponsors of tbe affair.
The committee wishes to correct
the erroneous statement made by stu
dents writing in the Student Opin
ion department of tbe Nebraskan
that any deficit occurring from the
party would have to be met by class
assessments. The students in charge
of this or similar activities are re
quired by a University ruling to per
sonally pay any such deficits and tbe
classes will not be held responsible
for them.
Definite plans for the party were
ade and preparations will begin imm
mediately. The Scottish Rite Tem
ple will probably be secured.
Will Hold Post
Mortem on Debates
The annual "post mortem"" on the
Iowa-Nebraska, South Dakota-Ne
braska debates will be held today
from 2 to 3 o'clock in University hall
106. Criticism of the work done by
both Nebraska teams will be givn

th Iowa-Nebraska debate at Iowa
City, a part of which was beard over
the radio by Prof. M. M. Fogg axd
Nebraska's affirmative team.
