Groundhog Tradition
Decrees Six More
Weeks of Winter
"It's no Vise," said the groundhog,
as he came up from his long winter
nap.
The traditional groundhog, famed
as a prognosticator of fair and foul
weather, came forth from his bur
row at noon, the traditional time.
He looked about him, sniffed the air,
and was just about to leave his win
ter quarters, when low and behold,
he saw a silhouette reproduction of
himself on the earth. He turned and
scampered back into his den.
And so by tradition, there isn't
any use to think about it any longer.
We are going to have six more weeks
of winter weather.
COUNCIL ASKS FOR
' MORE REGULATION
Studjent Organisation Committee
Requested to Close Varsity
Dance Nights
Because of the persistent disregard
on the part of fraternities and sor
orities of the recommendation of the
Student Council in regard to Varsity
parties namely, that these organi
zations refrain from scheduling par
ties on the evenings on which the
Varsity parties are held, the Council,
at a meeting Wednesday afternoon
in Tenipe 204, decided to recom
mend to the committee on student
organizations, which will meet next
Monday, that no fraternity or soror
ity be allowed to hold house dances
on these evenings. That is, Varsity
Dance nights will be "closed nights"
to these parties. If the resolution is
passed by the committee it will be
come a rule.
The Council moved that a commit
tee be appointed to investigate
whether or not fraternities and sor
orities are in favor of limiting down
town representative parties to one a
year.
PEACE ADYOCATE
TALKS ON MEXICO
Frederick Libby Says No Reason Why
Hope For Conciliation
Be Abandoned
"We have been living a more crit
ical situation with Mexico than is
commonly realized," declared Fred
erick Libby, executive secretary of
the National Council for the Preven
tion of War, in his address on "The
Situation in Mexico and Nicaragua
Today," delivered at the World For
um at the Grand Hotel Wednesday
noon.
"There is no reason why hope for
conciliation should v be abandoned,
however," he acknowledged. Mr.
Libbv said that there were lour
causes underlying our present diffi
culties in Mexico and Nicaragua.
In the first place, he pointed out,
oil interests were involved. The Mex
ican eovernment has distinguished
between sub-soil rights and surface
riehts." Mr. Libby pointed out tnat
Originally, they made this distinction.
Then under the long administration
r.t n;r fi liKtinetinn was elimin-
Ul A l J, v.. - -' ,
ated. Oil interests purchased land
after that change. Then in
Mexico adopted a new constitution
which went back to the old system.
Deadlock is Important
"There is a source of trouble with
n llir,e what may happen. The
deadlock is more fundamental than
might be supposed." Mr. Libby then
showed how both President Coolidge
and the Mexican governments in
their s'tai.ds have claimed to have
"inalienable rights", which would be
interfered with if either yielded.
The second cause of the difliculty
was attributed by Mr. Libby to pro
paganda circulated by the Catholic
church as the result of Mexico's
treatment of the Catholic church.
'T An rot believe that the Knights
of Columbus are trying to involve us
in war with Mexico," Mr. Libby ear
nestly' declared. "But I do believe
that their pamphlets are stirring
emotions in a way which may lead
to trouble. The facing of religious
TiinTi!i which economic, interests
could use at their will," pointed 'otff
Mr. Libby, "is the second great iac
or in cur present difficulty."
Many Prevalent Factors
Th arc of "Communism", which!
he declared has been used most un:
.mTttilnnslv. was considered the
third factor in the present difficulty
by Mr. Libby. The fourth lactor, ae-i
cording to the speaker, lies in the
fact that the United States has been
harlrinir one candidate for the pres
idency of Nicaragua and Mexico an
other. He gave as his personal opin
ion that Mexico's candidate was le
gally the right one.

deavor, no prospect of human life
which holds greater opportunities for
service to humanity and civilization

connecting the nation in a service
network of super-power supplying,"
he continued. "Every portion of the
country win have "white coal from
centers of tremendous power and
cheap production. Tomorrow we
cannot even visualize because oi its
mamificence of possibilities. It is

tlement Of WorlS-Wide Disputes
"People of university age today
are going to be in for a series of
thrills and thrills with an edge on
them In the next twenty-five
years," stated Dr. Frederic? J. Libby,
executive secretary of the National
Council for the Prevention of War,
when interviewed Wednesday after
noon at the Lincoln Hotel, following
his speech at the World Forum. Al
though spoken in a jocular marner,
his words contained a decided under
current of seriousness. "If war ever
breaks out anywhere, it will break
tout everywhere, until a world war
will open which will very nearly wipe
out civilization.
"Nations are living closer to
gether; the oceans are now narrower
than rivers were years ago; if an
other war comes, it will be a war of
peoples, not armies," he emphasized.
He illustrated the critical position of
world affairs today by citing the
many disputes, both national and in
ternational, which must be settled,
and which can be settled, by peaceful
means.
"The fundamental trouble between
Mexico and the United States, as
President Coolidge said, is oil lands,"
he continued. He heartily indorsed
the recent national action of college
Y. M. C. A. and Yi W. C. A. cabi
nets in sending petitions to the sena
tors, asking for peaceful negotia
tions with Mexico, in lieu of war.
"The great outpouring of letters
and telegrams to President Coolidge
in the past three weeks, on that ques
tion, has been enormous," he added,
"and the recent passage of the Rob
inson Resolution in favor of arbi
tration with Mexico was passed by a
favorable vote of 79-0.
"It is the duty of university stu
dents, the rising generation of to
day, to generate the steam that will
carry the world forward in the direc
tion of peaceful settlement of dis
putes. After all, it is the mold of
public opinion which has a very im
portant part Jo play in the world's
affairs. When the peoples of the
world realize that all disputes can be
settled peaceably, the world will be
organized on. a peace basis, and arm
aments of all nations will be reduced.

From Valley Leadership
The Scarlet and Cream basketball
squad will leave at 1:45 this after
noon for Oklahoma where they will
meet the Oklahoma Sooners at Nor
man on Friday and the Oklahoma Ag
gies at Stillwater on Saturday.
On account of the State Hard
ware Association holding their con
vention in the University Coliseum,
the Nebraska basketeers have been
forced to take their workouts on the
stage basketball court this week. A
stiff workout and final practice ses
sion was held last night by Coach
Charley Black's boys in red prepar
ing for thi Oklahoma invasion this
week-end. the varsity five oppos
ing the freshman squad were Captain
Smaha and Ctliiiict at Xuiwarux, Page
at the center position, Andreson and
Holm at guards. This will probably
be the lineup that will start .igainst
the Sooners, Missouri Valley leaders,
on Friday.
Stress Short Shot Game
In the last practice-before leaving
for Soonerland, the Nebraska basket
bailers were going great and kept the
ball in their possession almost at will.
The court on the stage is a bit nar
row and not as long as the regulation
court on the main flo'or of the Coli
seum, so the Varsity were getting
their short shot game down to a per
fection. The team will leave on the Bur
lington for Kansas City and go from
there to Norman, Oklahoma. Ne
braska meets the Oklahoma Univer
sity five at four o'clock Friday after
noon and the Stillwater Aggies on
Saturday night. Both games will be .
real battles and Coach Black is mak
ing no predictions as to the final
outcome of the' Oklahoma invasion,
but the Huskers will attempt to
tumble the Sooners from first place
in the Valley race.
Both Games Count in Standings
Both games will be counted in the
official Missouri Valley standing,
and the Huskers are bent on winning
a pair from the Oklahoma Schools.
.Coach Black will take ten men on the
trip. Those making the trip are Cap
tain Clark Smaha, Kenneth Othmer,
Ted Tage, Roy Andreson and Elmer
Holm. In all probability the second
five that make the trip will be Brown
Oleson, Elliott, Gerelick and Krall.
FINAL PLANS FOR
PAN-HEL COMPLETE
Ticket Sties Indicate Affair
Be Success; Work On
Decorations Starts
Will
Everything is in readiness for the
Pan Hellenic Ball to be held at the
Scottish Rite Temple, Saturday, Feb
ruary 4. Plans for decorations have
been completed and work will begin
at once.
The ticket sales so far indicate
that the affair will be a financial suc
cess. Sales were handled this year by
representatives of the Kosmet Klub
in each of the fraternity houses. Al
though the number of tickets was
limited to three hundred due to the
size of the ball room, there are still
a few to be had. They may be ob
tained at the Kosmet Klub rooms be
tween 2 and 4 o'clock every after
noon. Music is to be furnished by Jack
Crawford and his Chicago jazz band.
From all reports Crawford has one
of the cleverest bands in the coun
try. They not only furnish excellent
music hut also add to the entertain
ment of the evening with a variety
of comedy numbers.
Nothing definite has been given
out by members of the Kosmet Klub
as to the nature of the decorations.
However, it is understood that they
will surpass anything that has been
attempted in -previous years. All of
the work is to be professionally su
pervised. Junior Hobo Party h
