COUNCIL ADOPTS GOVERNING RULE Members Absent from Three Consecutive Meeting To Be Dropped Council members who miss three consecutive meetings will be auto matically dropped from' the Student Council roll according to the vote taken at a Student Council meeting held Wednesday afternoon in Temple 204. Council workers declare that it will be impossible to carry students on tht roll when they are taking no active part in the activities of the organization. An accurate check is being taken of the present members of the Council; scholarship reports on the members will be made at the semester and it is the aim of the present Council, as has been pointed out in previous meetings as well as Council this year will strive to be the meeting yesterday, that the purely representative of the student body and the members feel that in order to be such they must be in good standing, in touch with students and closely associated with the Coun cil organization. College Will Fill Vacancies In case it is necessary to drop members because of their absences and evident lack of interest it will probably be left to the discretion of the college from which the represen tative comes to the Council as to who shall fill his place. Nothing definite was decided in regard to this. Meetings will be held at regular intervals convenient to alL Notices will be put in the Daily Nebraskan and cards will also be sent to all members informing them of the place and date of the meeting. Regular Attendance Essential This measure may seem very harsh to some, the student members sug gested, but it is essential in order that the Council may have any defi nite organization that the members be present In case of illness or absolute necessity of absence for the three or more times leave may be granted by the chairman and the member may be reinstated. This rule is applicable only during this year and is the ruling of the present Student Council along with a number of other rules of form which will be enforced in the future at the Council meetings. These are concerned principally with the rou tine of business, the manner in which members may secure the floor and other minor details that the Council feels will add to the systematic pro cedure of the Council and will give them a better opportunity to organ ize their work.

The card bears this announcement: "It is a custom of the students and faculty of the University of Nebraska to observe a Sunday early in the school year as a day of universal at tendance at their several places of worship. Many of the Lincoln con gregations, at this time, give the stu dents an opportunity to unite with them as regular or affiliated mem bers. Please accept this invitation to be present at the place of worship you prefer on All-University Church Sunday, October 31, 1926." Chancellor Avery' Statement Chancellor Avery adds this en dorsement: "This invitation, which goes out to the students of all re ligious connections, has my hearty approval.

Some of the school representa- tives present were Chancellor Avery, Dean James, Professor Alexander, Professor Doane, Professor Filley, Crawford, Professor Walker and Harold Holtz. Received Degree at Nebraska The visitor received his A. B. de gree in 1905 and the Master's De gree in 1907. He was a member of the Think Shop during his college course. He remarked that the ab sence of Professor Fogg in the Jour nalism department and as director of the Think Shop seemed very con spicuous. He said he thought the peo ple realized what Professor Fogg had done for the school. Another luncheon was given for Mr. Ballard .by the University Play ers at the University Club. Miss How ell, of the dramatics department, Professor Schram of Geology depart ment and the members of the Uni versity Players were present. Mr. Ballard witnessed ' an exhibition of the Players. He stated that they could hold their own with almost any stock company in the country and were worthy of great praise. The ability of Harold Sumption, Harold Felton and Ray Ramsey, he said would com pare favorably with any of the pro fessional players today. Miss Ger trude Moran, former Player, who is now acting in New York, has ployed several important parts well, and in all probability will do much better, according to Mr. Ballard. Mr. Ballard Gives Impression "One feels much like Rip Van Winkle, on coming back to the Uni versity and seeing all the changes," the visitor explained when asked of his impressions of the changes made in the school. After being acclimated, nowhere, the improvements sre very apparent. The new buildings, espec ially the stadium, impressed the vis itor. He noticed two or three hundred girls playing hockey on the field yes terday, which, he declared "looked f 'good".
