Pledging a fraternity in Holland
Is a formal and intricate ceremony,
involving the loss of ones entire
head of hair, according to E. R.
Murrow, president of the National

who was on the campus yester

"In Holland," Mr. Murrow ex

pledge a fraternity, he must first
shave all the hair from hli head,
Then, In a line with many others
who are seeking pledgeshlp, he

He repeats this process until he

PRESENT POOL PLANS
Burnett Will Refer Action
To Board of Regents
At Meeting.
Nebraska may be one step near
er a new swimming pool as the re
sult of plans being laid before
Chancellor E. A. Burnett yester
day morning. The plans were
drawn by Rudy Vogeler and H. D.
Gish, director of athletics, and
were presented to the chancellor
bv a committee composed of Vo
geler, Gish, Business Manager Sel
leck, and Miss Mabel Lee, in
charge of girl's athletics.
Although the chancellor made
no official statement, tbe matter
will probably be presented before
the board of regents at its meet
ing next Saturday. If the board
of regents takes definite action at
that time it is thought that the
pool will be ready for use next fall.
Tentative plans provide for a
pool 37 by 75 feet, ranging in
depth from 3 1-2 to 11 feet. High
and low board diving will be pro
vided for and 1.000 spectators can
be accomodated.
According to Vogeler's estimates
approximately 16,000 per year can
be derived from revenue. Upkeep
including chemicals and a life
guard would be less than 4 .000
he estimates. Vogeler figures that
the pool will cost about thirty to
thirty-five thousand dollars.

Chancellor Arranges Date
For Group to Appear
Before Regents.
JOE HUNT IS CHAIRMAN
In consultation with Chancellor
E. A. Burnett Friday, Joe Hunt
and Robert Kelly, members of the
Student council committee on com
pulsory drill, reached an agree
ment to the effect that the com
mittee will be called in to present
its case before the first official
meeting of the board of regents
in May. A previous arrangement
had scheduled the meeting of the
committee with the board for Sat
urday, April 18.
The committee felt that since
the oillual date lulls during the
spring recess it would be nn un
fortunate time to make its ap
pearance because most of . the
members will be out of town, sev
eral of them being members of the
Kosmet Klub show cast which will
be touring the state at that time.
The May meeting of the board was
considered a better time and Chan
cellor Burnett agreed that the com
mittee should definitely make its
appearance at that time.
The committee of which Joe i
Hunt is chairman was appointed
during the latter part of the first
semester when the agitation
against compulsory drill was at its
height. A vote by the Student
council on a ' resolution favoring
Abolition of compulsory drill led to
the appointment of the committee.

attitude that good professors are
more important than beautiful
