Ayre Defends Scheme.
Staunchly defending bis scheme
before strong opposition In the
council Ayres asked that the coun
cil peek out the will of the. stu
dent body. He pointed out thst
there bsd been much discussion
pro and con on the matter but
that there bad been no real at
tempt to jret much student opin
ion.' The student themselves, be
argued, are the ones who should
decide, whether tbey want varity
parties or not.
Arguing against a student ref
erendum were Cordon Larson and
Robert. Kelly. They pointed out
tbst any attempt to organize var
sity parties tn an institution like
Nebraska would tend to widen th
breach between fraternity and
nonfraternlty students rather than
make them doner. They also
pointed out that the fraternity
men might approve of the varsity
party plan but they would not sup
port the parties by attending
them.
Ayres Move for Tabling.
The discussion occupied prac
tically ail of the meeting; and con
sequently when the motion faiVd
there was not enough time to dis
pose of tie matter. On motion of
Ayres the plsn was tabled for fur
ther consideration.

'Modem Peter Pan Best Describes

There are quotations and quota
tions that could be used to describe
Nyle Spieler, one of tbe four candi
dates for Prom girl. "Pretty as a
picture" or "Little but ob. my:"
she might say. One could "up-to-date"
or "classical" ber. She is a
combination which makes one be
lieve both in fairies and tbe capa
bilities of the modern girl; com
promising, she is a modern Peter
Pan.
Miss Spieler, however, is a true
Nebraskan and has lived most of
her life in Lincoln, coming here
from Omaha when she was quite
young. She attended Lincoln high
school where her chief interests
centered about dramatics and
where she was president of the
Mummies, dramatic organization.
During her four years in tbe
university, Miss Spieler has been
enrolled in teachers' college and
fine arts school. Her major is
dramatics and her minor, English.

Service in One Day's
Treatments.
Nineteen patients were treated
in the university infirmary Wed
nesdav to set a record for tbe
Student Health department. The
cases taken care of ranged ail the
wav from mumps to a broken leg.
In number of cases mumps
headed the list with fifteen. An in
jured hand, an infected lung, a
broken leg. and one case of measles
complete the list. Except for the
broken leg. all cases received their
first treatment by the university
doctor. The former was first
looked after by a Lincoln hospital
and is now merely beir.g watched
bv tbe school as it improves.
The great number of mumps
cases is to be expected at this time
of the vear according to Pr. Ly
man. The bead of the Student
Health department does not believe
the great mimbe- o) cases need be
taken seriously as ordinary care
will keep tbera tinder control.

JEWETT HAS MARKED
Colonel Raises Rating of
Military Units to Top in
Three Years.
Since the Vnivetsity of Ne
braska military units have been
under the control of Lieutenant
Colonel F. P. Je-?-et they have had
great success in securing honor in
national ratings. During Colonel
Jrwe't's first year at Nebraska,
tbe R. O. T. C. unit lacked but
1 percent of standing to acquire
distinguished -at ing. The second
year however, distinguished ratine
was obtained The third and fourth
vears. under a new system of na
tional lating. the Nebraska units
were rated in the highest division,
the excellent group.
irndei 1hr old syrtcm of graJing.
which was discontinued two years
ago. only h percent of the uni
versities could be elasifted as dis
tinguished The grading was
based not only on the actual dril
ling of the companies but also on
the facilities and equipment, each
school possesed. The ne-v .system,
established the third year ol Col
onel Jew-ett's command al the uni
versity, lists three divisions in
which" the universities are clas
sified: the unsatisfactory, the
satisfactory and the excellent.
CDder this new system the grad
ing of the training facilities is
lowered so that schools wilh pr,or
equipment are given a better
chance of winning nalional honor.
Each university is. now graded ac
cording to the actual drilling of
the military units, the condition of
tbe government property, tbe ex
tent to which these difficulties are
overcome and individual drill of
the different companies. According
to Colonel Jewett, this system of
rating is a much fairer method
of grading the military units ff
tbe universities than was the older
system.
TEACHERS HIGH
HAS OUTBREAK
OK SMALLPOX
Two casts of small pox in
Teachers College hirh school were
reported to Pr. Lyman's office
Wednesday. Both cases were dis
covered oiit of s'hool and both
children live on farms outside of
Lincoln. Dr. Lyman declares there
is do danger of an epidemic of tbe
disease breaking out in the school
suioe there is little chance that
other students have been exposed.
Had tbe students been attending
classes regularly when the cases
were discovered it is quite possible
that small pox could have spread
throughout tbe school and even
into the university. Regardless of
tbe improbability of tbe disease
spreading. Pr l-mn's office wa
beseiged Wednesday by b i g b
school students wanting to be vac
cinated. This furtijer detracts from
the rhances of a small pox epi
demic sweeping high school
