Gentlemen: The Interfralernity council's decision to abolish the probation period in my opinion marks the beginning of a new epoch in fra ternity life at the University of Nebrsaka. The value of such prac tices as obtained during probation has ever been a subject of con troversy among both active and alumni fraternity men. Moreover, whatever innocent or rough treatment hb;n 0wrd'd ophyte. the general public, quite unfamiliar with 'r'y:fJ,f"'Jh" regarded probation with suspicion; and I nolle ve u"lTt7"?i Istrators and faculty members usually have viewed the practice with ome apprehension However, the unwlmity of the council's action a guarantee that whatever trepidation the p edg ' n b,V IT.! parents may have had regarding probation, it is a matter of past history The University wishes to, congratulate the council or t thta de cision, and takes this occasion to vouchsafe i s full ame and de.tres to assure the council that H will ''n JJ" nand In dealing In a disciplinary manner with any recalcitrant fra tornity or individual.

VISITS CAMPUS GROUP Spring Starts Annual Battle Against Study With the first breath of spring, tops come down, chair are pulled out on roofless porches, and prom enading becomes the feature of the evening. For long, cold, months Nebraaka students have awaited Ire coming of spring. Next Friday the formal season comes to a close, with the Junior Senior Prom.
