"The purpose of the parties Is to
create a more democratic spirit at
Nebraska and both fraternity and

A hit added. "Some oeople
have the mistaken Idea that these
are barb parties eucn as me tsarn

sored both. "No political speeches
will be made at the AU University

Dr. J. O. Hertzler, of the univer

Under the heading of "Social
Institutions," Dr. Hertzler, as he
expresses it, deals In a "compre

the essential components of social
institutions, certain aspects of
their origin and evolution, the way
In which they develop their general
and unique characteristics, their
connection with social values, the
Interplay between Individual and
Institutions and the factors In

dia and other countries in the ori
ent hae taken correspondence
work through this division.
I mauc up my mind that in my
senior year I would try and or
ganize a club that (would bring
them together.
"I hope to open an office--preferably
on the campus If I
am permitted. 1 will list the lonely
boys and charg" them a fee. I
will Insist that they come person
ally to the office so that I can In
terview them and Judge somewhat
of suitability and general charac
teristics. Then I will have a list
of girla who will also be known
personally to me.
"When a boy calla and tells me
or my office that be wants a girl
for a date that night, I will re
member the general classification
Into which he falls by looking at
my files and I can select a girl for
him with whom I think be would
be congenial."
There are practically 6.000 stu
dents on the university campus at
the present time who do not belong
to fraternities or aororttles. so u
Miss Whitmore's plan Is success
ful, she will have a large. c!!??teie
for her "Get-a-Data" club.
