Survey Indicates Varying
Views on Abolition of
Downtown Parties.
The question of whether or not
they will give up downtown parties
remains the bone of contention be
tween the various groups of femi
nine Greeks about the campus, as
revealed by the balloting which
closed Monday. Sororities were
asked for an expression of their
opinion by the pan-Hellenic office,
which will present the question to
a vote of the student council at
their meeting next Monday.
Three factions seem to be ex
pressing opinions as to whether
they will give up downtown par
ties in order to curtail expenses
this year, according to the pan
Hellenic office, from a brief sur
vey of the ballots which have
been turned In. A number of the
groups have expressed themselves
as being anxious to do away with
the parties, others are loath to
give them up, and a third group
states that it is willing to side with
the majority.

WILLIAMS PRESIDENT
Gordon Williams Chosen
New Leader After Nash
Resigns Post.
POLICY CHANGE SEEN
By The Observer.
That the Barb faction is not
to remain inactive as a campus
political power during the coming
year was indicated Wednesday
night when they elected Gordon
Williams president. William's elec
tion followed the resignation of
Delphian Nash who stepped out
because he desired to give younger
members of the party an oppor
tunity to organize freshmen and
sophomore non-fraternity stu
dents. Gordon Williams, a sophomore,
is the brother of Alan Williams
who has been dipping a long finger
into the campus political porridge
for the past four years. The older
Williams, who was a barb member
of Innocents society last year the
only non-fraternity man to make
the society in twenty years is
best remembered for the stir he
created as a sophomore. DuriDg
that year Williams succeeded in
running four barb candidates into
class presidency offices.
According to the few president
the Barb political faction will
meet this evening to select a slate
of candidates which they plan to
file for next Tuesday's election.
Nash, although he has stepped
out of non-fraternity faction
ranks, will continue as chairman
of the Barb council.
Campus politicians who are
aligned in the ranks of fraternity
factions are always at a loss as to
what they may expect from Barb
quarters. If organized this group
could easily elect any candidate
they chose to name for the non
fraternity potential voting power
is far stronger than that of either
of the fraternity factions. In the
overthrow of three years ago the
Barb faction forced the Blue Shirts
and Yellow Jackets to combine in
order to keep the Barb slate from
going through during the second
semester.
ENGINEERING FROSH
TAKE CENSUS WORK
On Saturday, October 3, all the
freshmen orientation students
will serve as counters in taking a
census of traffic flow in down
town Lincoln. Each counter will
serve for a period of three hours.
Each student must report at the
office of Professor Evinger, Room
109, Nebraska Hall not later than
the afternoon of Thursday, Octo
ber 1, to receive assignment of
counting station and the hours of
service.
wcese, represent the most difficult
form of the art which has yet oeen
evolved, namely the trick marion
ette. When you see a man push a
grand piano onto the stage and
raise the top, when you see a
singer breathe deeply and thrill a
high note with her mouth opened
to its fullest capacity, when you
see a clown performing feats with
two balls, remember that these lit
tle creatures live only for the short
space of time in which they are
animated from above, and soon
will be resting in their sleeping
bags, peacefully awaiting the next
touch of the gudiing hand.
Can you believe that these dolls
really perform such marvelous
feats? It does seem impossible, but
they will dispel all doubts for Lin
coln audiences at the Temple thea
ter Saturday, Oct. 3. Besides the
clever acting there will be other
attractions as well, namely, a mar
ionette stage which is second larg
est in tho world and designed-after
the Italian "piccoll." The lighting
effects also are an exact copy of
tho same stage. The dolls will be
unusually delightful because of
their Jointed movable lips made
possible through Mr. Fling s expert
knowledge of woodcarving. The
costumes of the dolls were de
signed by Mrs. F. M. Fling.
The performance is being spon
sored by ths University of Ne
braska Y. W. C. A. There will be
two shows, a matinee at 2:30 ami
an evening performance at 7:30.
The matinee price is 25 cents and
the evening admission is 35 cents.

FACULTY APPROVES PLAN
Husker Organization Lead

Of Greeting Idea.
Reviving what many years ago
was a tradition, but which died
from lack of support, the faculty
and upperclass students will greet
all freshmen this morning with a
friendly word and smile.
Starting this morning is "hello
day" which if it conforms to the
plans of the A. W. S. board, spon
sor, will be the beginning of a
closer relationship between fresh
men and others of the campus.
The tradition originating many
year ago, altho it failed to exist
for more than a year, was a 'great
success while it lasted," according
to Amanda Heppner, dean of wo
men. Dean Heppner said that the
former custom was hailed by both
freshmen and upperclassmen as
an excellent plan which made for
unity and spirit. There was no ap
parent barrier between these two
groups when the plan was in scs

PAN-HELLENIC BANQUET
S
Large Attendance Expected
At Annual Affair Set
For October 13.
Arrangements for the annual
Pan-Hellenic . banquet, scheduled
for Tuesday, Oct. 13, will be com
pleted by the end of this week,
Mrs. Gerald Carpenter, general
chairman, announced yesterday.
Tickets have been placed in the
hands of the twenty-three Individ
ual sororities, and sales are being
conducted locally in each group.
A large attendance is expected
at the affair, since sorority houses
will probably be closed to dinners
on that evening, according to Julia
Simanek, Pan-Hellenic chairman
on the campus.
The banquet, which is an annual
affair, has been changed from the
spring to the fall of the year for
the first time this year since lag
ging enthusiasm at the end of the
social season has hindered it in the
past, according to Mrs. Burnett. It
is hoped that the change of time
will prove more valuable in stirring
up enthusiasm at the beginning of
the year.
Festivities will begin promptly
at 6:30 at the scheduled date at the
Comhusker hotel, and will be in
charge of the following commit
tees of Lincoln women:
General chairman: Mrs. Gerald
Carpenter. Entertainment: Miss
Alice Holwell, chairman; Miss Su

MARTIN TELLS FORUM
OF
Seventy-Five Hear Russian
Student's Talk on
Soviet's Plans.
"It is the support of the youth
of Russia upon which the Soviet
is basing its success," declared
Melvin Martin, Russian student in
the university, to the seventy-five
students and faculty members who
attended the first meeting of the
World Forum at the Grand Hotel
Wednesday noon.
"They are the ones who appreci
al .' the intrinsic values of the five
year plan' be continued, "rather
than the older people. The adjust
ment has been very difficult for
them."
Mr. Martin, in outlining the
background and political history of
the soviet system, spoke especially
of the influence of Lenin, Trolsky,
and the theories of Carl Marx.
"The Russian is a man of ex
tremes," he explained. "He is will
ing to sacrifice himself and all of
his possessions for a cause."
Idealism is one of the most
striking characteristics of the Rus
sians, the speaker continued. It is
this quality which enables them to
rise above the consideration of
hunger , fatigue and cold, in the
realization that their sacrifice Is a
positive contribution to the cause
to which they are devoted.
Martin's speech Wednesday was
the first of live discussions to be
sponsored by the World t orum, on
Russia's five year plan. Professor
Harold W. Stoke of the political
science department will present his
views of the political aspect of the
five year plan at the next forum
meeting, October 7.
Following Professor Stoke, Miss
Margaret Fedde, chairman of the
department of home economics,
will describe her experiences in
Russia this summer, with particu
lar reference to tho educational
system, and the living conditions
which she saw.
Martin will again lead a discus
sion on the topic of the economic
aspect of the soviet plan. Dean J.
E. LeRossignol of the department
of economics will close the series
on Russia, with a presentation of
the views of an outsider on the
economic situation created by the
five year plan.
Dr. George A. Coe of the Uni
versity of Chicago Is to be a spe
cial guest of the University of
Nebraska on Oct. 28, and will lead

NEW IMPROVEMENT
EXPLAINED BY SEATON
Operating Superintendent
Gives Review of Plans
For Expansion.
RAIN MAY DELAY MALL
Work on improving the Univer
sity of Nebraska campus has been
progressing very well this year,
according to L. F. Seaton, operat
ing superintendent. Several new
improvements have been proposed
in addition to those already under
way. Additions will be erected on
both this campus and that of the
Medical College in Omaha, Mr.
Seaton says.
Work on the swimming pool has
been going a bit slower than ex
pected. The plumbing, however,
is well under way and it will prob
ably be completed not long after
the expected date of November
15th.
The mall is being constructed on
the site of the old drill field and
will probably be completed in
about three weeks. But should
rain continue for very long,
the completion of this work will be
delayed aiso.
Workmen will start wrecking
the old Sigma Chi building and the
building next to it this fall pre
paratory to building a girls' dor
mitory On that location sometime
in the near future. Architects are
now preparing plans which will
be submitted for bids as soon as
possible. The women's dormitory
will probably be one of the best
of its kind in this part of the
