WILLIAMS VOICES
PROTEST TO NEW
PLAN OF PARTIES
(Continued from Page 1.1
"This is not surprising because
there arc mor non-fraternity than
fraternity students in school. Fur
ther more, we have found as many
as twenty-eight fraternity and
soroity parties scheduled for the
same night as our party. Never
have there Ieen less than sixteen
Greek-letter organirMions holding
social functions on nights Identical
with our schedule."
If the new varsity party sug
gestion is accepted, the lour nights
will be closed to any fraternity
or sorority functions. The Barb
council chairman discarded this
that if the students don't care to
attend parties they should not be
forced to.
All-University parties, added
Williams, are primarily for non
fraternity students and hence a
barb organization is more capable
of selecting entertainment and in
general conducting a party which
would be enjoyed' by them.
"Why Limit Number?"
"These rae really the only social
functions which nonfraternity stu
dents may attend," Williams went
on. "Why limit them to four each
year? Fraternities and sororities
have no limitations, other than
financial, ond the number of house
dances they may hold.
Tracing the hmtory of the Barb
council, Williams cited the time
during last year when the regular
Varsiiv Dailies were discontinued
because of financial failure. After
some lime had elapsed in the
second semester of 1U28-29 with
out any evidence of continuance
of the student parties, nonfratern-
itv students took up the matter,
A plan was drafted and two par
ties were put on mat semester,
reported to be financially successful.
Williams objected strenuously
when a reporter from The Daily
Nebraskan brought to his atten
tion the fact that the name of the
Barb council had been changed by
the Student council to "Barb Ex
ecutive board."
"We submitted our constitution
with the name Barb council," de
clared the barb leader. "The Stu
dent Council had no power to
change the name of our body with
out consulting us. As far as we
are concerned we retain the name
of Barb council."
Joyce Ayres, originator of the
new plan, will go over some of the
objectionable points with Williams
before the plan is brought to vote
in the Student council. That the
Ayres plan would tend to elimin
ate party crashing was suggested
by members of the Student coun
cil. PRESIDENTS OF
18 SORORITIES
OPPOSE RULING
(Continued from Tage 1.)
Phi Mu, regarding the panbellenic
ruling which forbids such action.
Irene Ruwe, Kappa Alpha Theta
president, expressed the belief that
publicity for sorority functions
was legitimate news during the
school year, but she opposed its
publication during the summer
months because of its possible
effect upon rushees.
Rule Unfair to Sororities.
As her reason for favoring the
revision of the Pannellenic rule,
Mary Ann Davis, Alpha Delta
Theta, points to the impossibility
of keeping lacts regarding social
events from being accessible to
newspapers. As the ruling now
stands the sorority is penalized if
an account of its party appears
regardless of the source of the in
formation. Lois Raymond, president of Al
pha Deltc Ti, took the stand of
Althea Marr, Keppa Kappa
Gamma, in opposing such publica
tion. "I think I am against it. It
is purely publicity, and groups

would h inclined to give big par
ties to splurge," she said.
Kuth White of Thi Omega Fi
was the only one of the twenty
one presidents who could not be
reached, and only two of the
others deemed the present Tanhel
lenie regulation dviable.
In regard to the question of
publication of news about sorority
parties, Ralph Raikes, president of
the Student council, Gordon Lar
son, vice president of the Inno
cents, and Alan Williams, leader
of the barbs, stated that The Ne
braskan, a university newspaper,
should run university news. They
believe that sororities and sorority
functions have a place in the news
columns of the campus daily.

SINGING NOT ESSENTIAL
With nearly fifty coeds report

was impossible for the selection
committee to see all of the appli

Another applicant card will be
placed in the College Book store

those coeds who were unable to at

approximately twelve girls will be
selected by the Kosmet Klub com

"We were pleased with the large
number of coeds who turned out
for the chorus tryouts," stated
Carl Hahn, production manager of
the 1930 show. "We expect to find
a splendid chorus group from the
aspirants."
Tryouts were also held for the
male chorus. Singing ability is
stressed in the male tryouts, the
show demanding a chorus of men
to carry much of the group sing
ing. The wide variety of parts in
cluded in "Sob Sister" are expected
to draw a large number of men
and women students for the prin
cipal tryoirts tonight.

"China is changing no longer is
she a sleeping dragon," stated
Mrs. A.
China, in her
pers Tuesday evening in Ellen
Smith hall.
The women of China are bound
mentally, spiritually, and physic
ally by opium. Althougn ignorani.
and superstitious, they desire a
change. Their superstitions may
appear funny to us, but to the Chi
nese they are so serious that they
often ruin the lives of whole fam
ilies. The life of the women and
the girls in China is at yet almost
untouched by Western influence.
Child marriage is not prevalent
in Ohlna as in India, however the
Chinese bride is sometimes a total
stranger to her husband. The bride
of the educated classes goes to the
home of her mother-in-law imme
diately after her marriage and be
comes a literal slave. The parents
arrange the marriage and settle
the dowry.
Foot-binding Still a Custom.
The parents still bind the feet
of the girls although this practice
is dying out. The child as a baby
is carried on her mother's back
and held in place by a white band
of cloth which keeps her warm and
leaves the mother free to work.
The child as she becomes older
plays in the streets and learns how
to gamble with sugar cubes as
dice. As the girl grows older, she
never appears on the street with
out an escort because ot tne num
erous soldiers. The women of
China want a. rhange and we can
do much to help them get it, the
speaker concluded.
Marv Louise Lane gave a violin
solo as the special musical num
ber. The meeting was led by
Marie Broad, member of the "Ne
braska in Shanghai" staff.

GLASGOW UNIVERSITY
Women students of Queen Mar
garet college of Glasgow univer
sity are amused by the attack
made upon them by a writer in
the current issue of the universtiy
magazine, who signs himself "A
Erolcen Man." Referring to them
as "Q Emmas" he accuses them
of being ugly in face, form, and
mind. They have no humor, no
initiative, no originality, no love
for beauty, no taste in dress, no
ability in the wirting of verse, no
discernment where rc"?n are concerned-No
aptitude for any serious

All of Union Is Entered in
Contest to Reduce
Ignorance.
All the states in the union are
having a contest with the census
taker in an endeavor to cut out
high illiteracy reports by April 1.
The 1930 census will include the
names and addresses of illiterates
along with the name of the state
superintendent.
Night schools are being used in
the five southern states where the
illiteracy percentage is the high
est, Georgia, South Carolina, Mis
sissippi, Louisiana and Alabama
Louisiana, with the highest illiter
ate percentage, 21.9 percent, is try
ing to erase that stigma, while
Georgia has raised $30,000 by pri
vate subscription and is putting on
a program. In one county in South
Carolina there arc 100 night
schools.
A surprising change is expected
in the 1930 census becfiuse of the
strenuous efforts being made by
the different states to overcome
their illiteracy handicaps. Ne
braska formerly was the state with
the lowest percentage, but in 1920
Iowa with 1.1 percent illiteracy
took first place. Nebraska and
North Dakota, the latter just com
pleting a four year illiteracy cam
paign, are striving to oi'ercome
Iowa's lead A prediction has beeo
made that a reduction of the coun
try's illiteracy from five to two or
two and one-half millions will be
made.
