Admitting that tbe pretcat method of electing
the Mr Qu" t'a"r of Nebra.ka cam
pus la trepreentativ ad1 tbAt there It nece
slty for considering cbenges to the present etecUoo
machinery, the Student Council bat red the band
writing on the wall for the May Queen at the hat
been eboeea for nearly twenty yearn.
A committee to hear the argumenta for and
against the. method or selecting the May Queen hat
been appointed. The Council hat choten wleely.
They prefer the cauUoua method of reraodelini the
election machinery rather than the teMldon. set-it-up
method. They prefer to feel Abtolutely cer
tain that the ttodentt at the University are ready
to constlrut the firing squad that rakes the present
system with the lead of criticism and contempt.
Unrepresentative, unrepresentative, unrepresen
tative is the cry against the May Queen elections.
That alone ought to be sufficient tumult to chuck
May Queen elections at they hare been In the past.
The Nebraskan la concerned with the arguments
that hare been thrust forward In an effort to tare
the May Queen election as It hat been. Here they
are:
1. If chor-n at the sprine. election the May
Queen and the Maid of Honor would not hare time
to prepare themselves for the Ivy day ceremonies,
alnce It taken nearly two months to make the
dreses for the occasions.
The May Queen has al-eady been elected
for this year and It would be unfair to scrap the
system now, thus depriving her of the honor.
3. If put on n representative basis, open to
ihe voting of students other than senior women,
the May Queen wouM become a prey to political
influence.
These are- the three contentions In defending
the May Queen elections status A.uo.
The first is absurd. Because a May Queen can
not have her Attire completed In less than two
montha time Is A shsllow argument that students
of the University should be. deprived of the right
to tote. What do flimsy gowns and picture hats
amount to when It comes to TotJng for a represen
tative of the entire campus, when It comes to voting
for a coed that It to represent Nebraska? What
do theyt
BecAuse tie presUent of the United BtAtes
might order a new tailor made suit which requires
some few weeks to complete does sot mean that
the people of the country Are going to see the right
to vote kept away from them. It Is actually ques
rJonAble whether It takes two months to complete
a drees for the May Queen. Dressmakers today are
cot like the fairy god mother of Cinderella, but if
it taken two months to make a dress, then they
ought to go ek to ot Wo v"
yes, the May Queen for this year hat been
chosen. Who knows who that coed is? No student
in the UAfwrelty has bad the Information given to
him. At least enouMn't have bad. It is not known
outside the boly thirteen,' as a student pinion
dubbed the Mortar Boards, There Isn't the slight
est speculation as to who the coed might be. The
thing that Interests them now la that they have had
no rolce In choosing the Queen. A tradition is al
suke here. It isn't a matter of life and death. A
coed who It loyal to NebraskA ought to consider it
an honor to relinquish her hold on the honor for
the sake of seeing a representative system Installed
at the University.
The chArge that political faction would dictate
the May Queen candidate U fragile. Whenever coeds
have been chosen before, the voting has been split
forty ways. What about the voting for the honorary
colonel? Students vote for the coed who they think
would make the best colonel, regardless of her af
filiations. Factions will not align themselves with
candidate for such an office, because It is Impos
sible to drive a msn to the polls to vote for a coel
who he knows Is not deserving.
Then, there is the question of how much politi
cal pressure Is brought to bear on the present sys
tem of selecting the May Queen. No person knows.
There are lots of guesses.
Advocate of the present system of electing the
May Queen are grabbing at the ton straw.
Some enterprising Swiss ehtee manufacturer
will undoubtedly come forth with a :rlse equal to
that given by the Procter and Gmlie Co. for the
bst piece of sculpture In soap.

NAME PLEASE!
The Dally Nebraskan welcomes contributions to
its editorial column from the student body aa a
whole. There la no attempt to suppress pinions
which are given for publication. Tbe only restric
tion, that has been placed upon the publication of
student pinions, beyond that of rejecting the dis
tasteful and revolting, has been the IdenUty of tbe
writer to be known to the editor.
Yesterday, two opinions bearing fictitious sig
natures were turned in at the Nebraskan office. The
opinions were fit for publication, but the editor
must know the Identity of th writer. This baa been
th policy of the paper in years past If the author
of a letter desires that his name be withheld, this
privilege can b granted. Over a fictitious signature
alone, however, without the knowledge of the
author, no student opinion can be published.
R. O. T. C. cadets are praying for the drill field
to be dug up again or dally -Jain to begin.

OTHER STUDENTS SAY
REMINISCENCES
In thee balmy spring days when the thought
of seniors naturally turn to the approaching Ivy day i
and graduation ceremonies. It happens occasionally j
that one's thoughts turn to similar ceremonies in j
th past. It is through such flights of memory that j
1 am carried back to tbe days when t my father's i
knee I first heard of the beautiful Ivy day cere- j
monies at Nebraska. Krou that time to the pres-;
ent, through the storie relate l.r Tdid3 aunts
snd older brother and sisters, and through my own j
experience of the past four years, I have been con- j
stantly Impressed 1th the beauty and signiflcanc
of these ceremonies.
Comes now the bitter realisation that I have
been duped and deluded, for does not The Dsllyi
Nebraskan tell us both editorially and through tbe
expression of atudent opinion that the May Queen
is not the real choice of tbe students? How base
and thoughtleas of all my informants that they
should not have mentioned this. Even my own ex
perience has played me false, for I have sever ob
served on the countenance of th May Queen any
looks of distress which might proceed from the
real) ration that she wa not the r.J representstlv
of th student body.
It is tru that "Just an Observer" calls atten
tion to tbe fact that there were two and onahalf
times a many votes cast rhU year At last- But,
la spite of this, (or because of It?), as Th tlly
Nebraskan says, "th Ivy day ceremony 1 cheated
out of muck of Its significance." Let u by all mean
change th election machinery lest It develop that
aa even larger umber of students avail themselves
of th present machinery as a meant of expressing
their choice neat year.
