Vetta AtVt Butine.a Mnaer Milton MeCrew Clreulation M.rr THE ELECTION Through the courtesy of the Stu dent Council, the editor of The Daily Nebraskan was given access to the polls at the election Tut-sday and was allowed to be present when the votes were counted. He went to the polls and watched ' the ballots being counted with the express purpose of seeing whether or not this election was honest It was, in his opinion, the most honest election that has been held at this University in the last four years. One thing which was very notice able at the election Tuesday was that there were no candidates allowed inside of the Temple building where the balloting was done. All cam paigning was done outside of the building and in the few instances where persons were found campaign ing inside they were immediately or dered out of the building. The faculty advisor of the Stu dent Council was present at various i times during the day to observe the way in which the voting was con ducted. The ballots were passed out and counted solely by members of the Student Council who had previously been instructed to be very careful his year as this election was to be "watched very closely and any one caught doing anything crooked dealt with by the authorities. While we were at the polls, and this was a considerable length of time, there was not a single ballot passed out unless the name had been looked up and varified. All mem bers of the Council -cted in perfect faith, as far as we could see. There was, however, one proof of crooked work found when the votes were counted. When the ballots for one of the class officers were being counted, fhere were found a num ber of votes for the same candidate (a woman) crossed in exactly the same way and folded together. These votes were thrown out. This can didate would not have won even if the votes had counted. This incident proved that even the most careful vigilance cannot Veep the elections entirely clean. There is evidently someon on the Student Council who is not honest But this one case, compared with the many similar cases in previous years, seems rather insignificant. While it is very regrettable, never theless it does not detract from the fact that as a whole the election was fair and square. While we do not maintain that this election was perfectly clean, we feel very encouraged over the progress that has been made. We have heard the 'Usual rumors of crooked work but saw nothing in our observation? at the polls that would bear this out Those candidates who were elected can feel, at last, that they have been elected fairly and squarely. This should make the offices mean much more to them than they ever have before. Let us hope that they will act accordingly. A Wolcoma Chang To the Editor: You ask for comment in regard to the elimination of the stunts between the halves of the football games. I think there is none to be made. One could hardly wish for a better spirit than tha.t exhibited at last Saturday s game, when the bands paraded, and comnlimerted the opposing team, rather than indulging in some sar castic bit of horseplay that added little if anything to the good sports manship on the part of the specta tors. Cheers and clapping by both sides are preferable to the cheering of the team which ruts on the stunt, and the jeering of the opposing team. That sort of stunt that has been put on for the last two or three years could create nothing but hard feeling. The least we could do for those who come as strangers in compar ativelv few numbers was to treat them as well as we can. Our sc'.otl will not suffer by the elimination of these stunts. Rather, it will benefit. We want no such adverse comment as to our treatment of our guests for the day as was drawn from isotre Dame. Whether deserved or not, that incident put a blot on our school. Mav those who had the courage to propose the drastic step receive their reward 1 I. A. S. The University of Nebraska Official Daily Bulletin VOL. II. WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1920. NO. 14.

The Awirwan is making an impor tant change of policy this year, that ,ni nnneal a ercat deal to the BlU- X' " dent body. Instead of being mostly Disappointed To the Editor: Ever since coming to this Univer sity, something which I have fully intended to see has been absent This something is the Corn Cobs in action between the halves of our football games. A number of years ago before I had any thought of attending Ne braska University, I can remember that one of the best spirit builders was the pep which the Corn Cobs aroused by their stunts. These did not only serve to arouse pep in our local students, but they made a good impression for our school upon all visitors. Students of other universities are used to seeing such things and they take an interest in them. because of their school pride. Nebraska need not feel "alone by having euch an organi zation for a number of the few schools which are larger than our own, have similar organizations. Now since we already have the or ganization, and since they are will ing to spend, their time by doing such, then I believe that it is an op-1 portunity which we students are let ting slip by by not requesting them to take charge during part of the time between the halves. R. C. W. unselfishly for a better school spirit at Nebraska. Perhaps at times the stunts were not so good as they could have been, however, the major ity of them were amusing and helped to create a spirit of enthusiasm. If the stunts are not reinstated it will be a great injustice to the Corn Cobs. It will cause a loss which will not be repaired with any ease. M. S. II. Three Years Ago Dt. R. G. Clapp was elected presi dent of the Western Intercollegiate Wrestling and Fencing Association. Edwin Weir, tackle, and one of the main cogs in the 1923 Cornhusker football machine, was elected to cap tain the team in 1924, at a banquet at the Chamber of Commerce. Miss Rosalie Platner, a member of Phi Omeea Pi sorority, was elected honorary colonel of the cadet regi ment. Rov Younsrman was elected chair man of the forty Nebraska delegates to the Student Volunteer Convention at Indianapolis. Comnanv C was presented with the Commandant's Cup for winning the company rifle meet. Major Erickson presented the cup to Captain Rath sack on the drill field. theater and was secured for the con vocation by the University Phyers. Dean O. J. Ferguson c f the College of Engineering, was elected president of the Kansas-Nebraska section of the Society for the Promotion of En gineering Education. Two Yers Ago A Worthwhile Organization To the Editor: Kansas has the Jayhawkers, Okla homa has the Hell-Hounds and all other Valley schools have their pep I organizations. Why can't Nebraska have the Corn Cobs? This organization seems to me to be one among a very few on the cam pus which has a real purpose for ex isting and there are- so many that have great purposes and high ideals but do nothing. The Corn Cobs have always seemed to me to.be working SOMEBODY CARES In the "Other Opinions" column today will be found several views on the matter of the elimination of stunts between halves. Our supposi tion that nobody cared whether the stunts were cut out or not was evi dently wrong as evidenced by the let ters received on the subject Fortunately we have both sides presented in the opinions printed to day. One letter commends the ath letic board, saying "May those who had the courage to propose the dras tic step receive their reward." An other letter contends that Nebraska has lost something that was enjoyed bv the greater part of the crowd, while another says an injustice is be ing done the Corn Cobs. So we have an opportunity to view both sides of the question which is the ideal situation in any contro versy. We feel much encouraged oer the receipt of these letters and will be glad to get more. It at least shows that somebody cares. Other Opinions Something Lacking To the Editor: Football games without the stunts presented by the Corn Cobs seem to be about like pop corn without salt rr.d butter. There is something lack- 'i - er.r.rc r.rjs of student opinion Pi Beta Phi sorority was the win ner in the contest for subscriptions to the Awgwan, with Kappa Kappa Gamma and Delta Zeta receiving second and third honors.
