He added that if Senator John

the senate floor.
Senator Axtell voted to drop the

before the senate last week, be
cause he believed that it was a

Others in the senate chamber
located on the substitution as a
move to kill all proposed anti
smoking legislation.
Opposed Bill In 1921.
In reviewing his stand on the
amnkinsr miestinn with rerard to
the proposed prohibition for fra
ternity ana sorority nouses, ne
said that he was against them and
voted against the bill which legal
ized them in 1921. Senator New
man of Oakland, who sat across
the aisle from Axtell interrupted
the latter to assert that he too was
against fraternities.
In the discussion which followed
Senator Neuman maintained that
it was the same as forbidding a
man to smoke in his own home.
While sitting cross-legged in his
chair and smoking a cigartete.
Senator Neuman urged the evil ef
fects of smoking, but did not say
how he would vote on Senator Ax
tell's measure this morning.
Scott Favors Substitute,
Senator Scott, chairman of the
educational committee over whose
unfavorable report the senate took
up Senator Johnson's original
anti-smoking bill, announced that
he would vote for the substitute
measure.
A discussion followed among
four or five senators who remained
alter the afternoon session ad
journed as to whether it was In
fringing on a man's personal lib
erty to prohibit smoking. The
argument was In no way heated
and the group discussed the two
proposed anti-smoking measures
in a joking manner.
Explains Stand on Liquor.
When asked why be included
drinking as well as smoking la his
measure. Senator Axtell said that
the federal or state laws do not
prohibit drinking, but only forbid
drunkenness and possession, manu
facture and transportation of
liquor. He said that there had
ben a "lot ot nouenng awui
drinking in fraternities and especi
ally at fraternity down town
parties.
While he acknowledged that he
did not know whether the frater
nity men were greater offenders
than those who lived in rooming
houses, he said that most of the
"hollering" was against the fra
ternities because they are organ
ised groups and added that most
of the trouble started because of
these groups.
He said that one Lincoln hotel
man has been called before the po
lic and warned that he must stop
drinking at fraternity parties. He
also said that students who drink
are not treated like any other per-:
sons, saying that Dean Thompson
told the chief of police to report
drunken students to him rather
than book them at the station, j
whsn reminded of the Dean's !

just the same as anyonw

not insist that our men take a cer

against drill, but that each student
be given a chance to think the

on the matter.

"The greatest good to the great
est number" waa th warcry of
the anti-saloon supporters who
were agitating a campus campaign
for the abolition of the saloon.
Ninety-nine out of a hundred, they .
argued, had no uss for such an es
tablishment, and were allowing ths
minority to dictate in the mat
ter. Promoters were "talking up"
the donation of the bust of some
famous American as gift from the
senior class In place of tha mem
orial fountain which bad previous
ly been decided upon. The insur
gents held that the statuary
would be a very valuable addition
to the prospective library building,
and that it would outlive the foun
tain in its aesthetic contribution
to the university.
1911.
The seniors were formulating
plans for a masquerade to be
given at the Temple theater. The
first hour was to be devoted to
and old time country school pro-'
gram, to be followed by a burles
que cf prominent members of the
senior class, and other university
characters.
Thirty-eight members of the
graduating class were honored
with election to Phi Beta Kappa.
Thirty-one of these were co-eds.
only seven men securing the
privilege of wearing the coveted
key.
1921.
A display of silk hos on living
models at Rudge and Guenxel's
department store attracted such a
large crowd of studenU that 2-3
o'clock classes were noticeably
diminished in sire. It was reported
that both eus and coeds were piled
up ten deep before the windows
of the store. Traffic was blocked,
street cars got in a jam. autos
were forced to stop and Lincoln
was without communication for an
hour.
Students in the political science
department held a mock legisla
tive meeting in the social science
building. Measures brought forth
pertained to everything from the .
length of ladies' skirts to the fi
nancing of the state of Nebraska.
1926.

in a course in comparative litera
ture.
Tha members cf the course each
dav buy ticket numbers from one
to 100 at ten cenU each Two stu-
ripnta are Hlro-til to count the
authors emntioned during the lec
ture. The person noienng me Dum
ber which corresponds to the num
ber of authcrs named wins the
pool, while the poreUro of the pool
gete a 10 percent commission.
It seems that doperters have no
luck in beating the lottery they
are unable to estimate the total
number of fcuthors that the profes
sor will mention, which has been
as high as 73 names.
The professor of the course did
not seem inclined to ty to discour
age the lottery when it was
brought to bis attention by the
Crimson.
