Student Politics Plow Through
Checkered Existence; Factions
Lose Original Label and Count
Starting as Hushed Mystery, Parties Survive Through
Slippery Seven and . Oily. $h, . North and South
Side, Blue Shirt and Yellow Jacket
By Bill McOaffin.
Student polities on the Nebraska campus were a rather
hushed up affair until the popularization of the Slippery Seven
and Oily Six in the spring of 1927. There were still divisions
among the fraternities almost the. same as those back in 1921
Kii tlinv htm Vent verv ouiet. The university did not approve
of or permit politics and as a result all actions which smacked
L i of factional nolitics were kept un
der the legendary hat.
Un to this time no particular at
tention was paid to student elec
tions. The entire vote at an elec
tion would not exceed 150 and was
sometimes as low as fifty. Bill
Cejnar, Lambda Xi, and editor of
The Nebraskan at uiai umc, de
cided that elections should De
popularized and that the secrecy
of the different parties should be
clone away with. As a resuu ne
named the factions Slippery Seven,
and Oily Six, and ran a number
of rumor stories about them. He
ran the names of the candidates
and their Respective parties and
onv fne whole thiner as much pub
licity as possible. The success of
this idea is seen in the fact that
110 votes were cast that spring as
compared 10 the 150 cast in other
years.
Innocents Originate.
The origin of the two factions
from the Innocents society.
Seven fraternities of the one side
In the Innocents made up the
leaders of the Slippedy Seven or
ganization while the remaining
six Innocents of the opposite side
eomnosed the Oily Six. Among me
leaders or tne snppery oeveu ui -
Aloha Tau Omega, Aipna Sigma
Phi, Delta Upsilon, Delta Tau
Delta and Beta Theta Pi. Some of
the leaders of the Oily Six were
Sigma Nu, Phi Delta Theta, Phi
Kappa Psl, Sigma Chi, Kappa

The spring of 1927 saw the at

a number of letters for publication
In The Nebraskan and then nica

as a candidate from the arts ana

Forum Speaker.
NEED ABILITY TO THINK'
Opportunities for Kmployinent
for College Graduates." was the
toolu discussed by I'rof. T. T.
Bullock at the meeting of the ag
forum held Thursday noon at the
Home economics building. me
meeting was held under the aus
pice of the ag orancn oi mo
university Y. M. C. A. and Y. W.
C A. About sixty attended.
Professor llullnck stated that a
large number of companies send
representatives to the University
of Nebraska who are constantly
looking for good men to employ.
The ability to meet people, a tech
nical knowledge of the fa.tusi
material, and a background or cul
ture are the qualities which these
representatives require.
Tho fact that many graduates
are entirely dependent on a text
book and lack ability to think for
themselves Is their greatest handi
cap In finding a good position.
Many college graduates nave cne
fault of conducting their Investi
gation with a view of finding a
itolutlon that will plea-ie thvlr su
periors rather th'n seeking for
accuracy and truth. The exami
nation svstem In collece mt be
responsible for this falling In the
opinion of Professor Bullock. The
third outstanding fault of college
graduates who go Into business Is
that they are unwilling to serve
at the bottom and are. from the
outset, Impatient for a better po
sition and an Increase In salary
They are not disposed to stay at
the bottom lone enough to ac
quire an adequate knowledge of
the work.
After Professor Bullock's ad
dress a discussion was held In
which the audience asked the
speaker many questions.

Fruit and Poultry Farm Takes Up
i e . r j n .
Spare Hours in ivr. L,aniz s uuy
(Editor's Note: This is the
second of a serie of article
concerning the hobbies and
avocation of university In
structor. The series will be
continued In the second se
mester isues of The Daily Ne-
braskan.)
A small fruit and poultry farm
keeps Mr. K W. Lantz. assistant
professor of secondary education,
busy after school hours. Next
month all good gardeners will
prune their shrubs and trees and
Mr. Lantz expects tie thousand
berry bushes and 150 trees on his
plot in Bethany to fill all his spare
time. With his son as a partner,
he raises currants, raspberries and
gooseberries, chickens, ducks,
geese and rabbits.
"Outdoor life is necessary for a
man who works at a desk all day,"
Mr. Lantz said, "and caring for
growing plants and poultry inter
ests me more than any sport."
Taught Agriculture.
Mr. Lantz taught agriculture
several years ago and had charge
of a practice farm in connection
with the course. Because the term
was so short, only the quick re
producing plants could be grown
and berries were particularly
adapted to this. He became inter
ested in this way in developing
new kinds of the berries and three
years ago began a farm of his own
as a hoboy. it. is a on-. "-
100 feet broad large enough to
furnish an active hoppy for his son
nd himself.
4 It naf proved a profitable hobby
too, for there is a gooa msrsei iur
gooseberries, currants raspberries
and apples, particularly if they
are of new and delicious variety.
It is Mr. Lantz's purpose to de
velop better varieties of small
fruits.
Variety of Bushes.
"From the seeds of berries," he
explained, "several kinds of bushes
may develop That Is the way a
new variety starts. The berry will
be the same as the parent bush by
direct reproduction, with raspber
ries that is when a tip of the bush
touches the ground, takes root
and grows Into an individual
bush."
It is by raising with particu
lar care some promising variety
developed from a seedling that
new kinds of berries appear on
the market. Mr. Lantz and sev
eral of his friends declare bis
"Columbia" raspberry their favor
ite. This is a black berry which
grows In large clusters and is
noted for its great amount of fruit.
