Seaton Announces Paving
Of Mall Completed in
Short Time.
POOL READY DECEMBER 1
"Long promised campus im
provements are well on their way
to completion, and a few weeks
should see the paving of the new
mall all done," said Operating Su
perintendent L. F. Seaton, in a
statement Issued yesterday.
Nebraska's $35,000 swimming
pool being built in the basement of
the coliseum is also nearing the
last stages of construction, accord
ing to Rudy Vogeler, swimming
mentor. The latest date an
nounced for the completion of the
pool is about Dec. 1.
These two improvement proj
ects constitute the major part of
the building program of the uni
versity for the first semester, al
though it is planned to start work
on the central unit of the pro
posed women's dormitory in the
spring.
Depends on Weather.
Bricklaying work on the mall
now being built on the site of the
old drill field will probably be
completed within a few weeks, if
the weather remains favorable,
Seaton said. As soon as the drive
is completely paved, a sidewalk
leading from Andrews hall direct
ly south to the connecting walk
between Teachers college and So
cial Science building will be laid.
"Eventually," Operating Super
intendent Seaton stated, "this side
walk will extend straight through
to R street, doing away with the
present angling walk running
southwest from Teachers college,
but this improvement will have to
wait until the present buildings
facing R are removed."
To Landscape Mall.
Present plans call for complete
landscaping of the new mall, sim
ilar to the greenery on the project
ea6t of the stadium. Whether
landscaping will be begun imme
diately is problematical, according

Yearbook Editor Asks for
Contributions From All
Students.
Response of staff members to
Cornhusker duties has been good
up to this time, according to OtU
Detrick, editor. They have been
reporting regularly for work at
the office and in view of this
Detrick hopes the Comhusker will
be out earlier than usual this year.
"Inasmuch as the Cornhusker is
a school annual, we want the stu
dents to feel that they have a hand
in putting it out," Detrick said.
"Any students who have snapshots
of campus life or some good ma
terial for the student life section
are invited to bring them in to us.
We will be glad to look over any
thing they might have for the an
nual," he said.
The snapshot and student lifJ
sections, which display a variety
of insights on the activities of the
students, presents one of the most
interesting parts of the book. It is
the aim of the Cornhusker staff to
have as much of the school as pos
sible represented in these sections.
Hoover wishes credit to expand so
that prices may go up and busi
ness conditions may be bettered. A
rise in prices is always accompa
nied by business gains for manu
facturers start to produce more.
"Banks, to function properly and
in order to meet the demand of
their customers for accomodation,
must." Cuneo pointed out, "be
able to convert their assets into
reserves. This conversion is done
by means of rediscount operations
with the federal reserve banks.
The kind of paper which the fed
eral reserve banks may rediscount,
is, however, limited by law. The
new Credit corporation will meet
the discount demands of bankers
who have collateral of a character
which, tbo sound, is not eligible
for rediscount directly or indi
rectly with the federal reserve
banks.
"For rediscounting," Cuneo ex
panded, "is one of the methods by
which the federal reserve banks

Interfraternity Group Goes
On Record Favoring
Party Economy.
REFUSES STAMP HELP
Falling in line with the policy of
reduction of downtown party ex
penses as presented in the editor
ial columns of the Daily Nebras
kan, the Interfraternity council
last night went on record as fav
oring definite action toward party
expense reduction.
A committee composed of Zeilin
ger, chairman, Uehling, Pospishil
and Easterday was appointed to
co-operate with a similar commit
tee appointed by the Panhellemc
council at their meeting Monday
afternoon.
A motion that the council favor
the proposed "hard times" day was
lost by a large majority.
Bringing before the interfrater
nity group the question of co-oper
ating with the A. W. S. board in
its annual sale of homecoming
"N" stamps, Marvin Von Seggern,
president, announced that the
board had asked for favorable ac
tion by fraternities, but a motion
not to obligate the council in as
sisting at the sale of the "N"
stamps was passed unanimously.
Simpson Comments.
Commenting on the interfrater
nity council's refusal last night to
co-operate with the A. W. S. board
in its sale of "N" stamps for home
coming, Evelyn Simpson, in charge,
of the stamp drive said, "I regret
that the interfraternity group saw
fit to refuse their cooperation in
this matter, for I had hoped to nee
them offer their assistance in the
sales drive. But altho the group
withholds official cooperation. I
hope that their negative action has
no effect on the position of the in
dividual fraternities, who in past
years have assisted splendidly in
making the homecoming stamp
drive a success."
At the close of last night's meet
ing, President Von Seggern ap
pointed Spencer, Bengston, Pinker
ton and Graham to serve on the
scholarship committee for this
year, Spencer to act as chairman.
With reference to fraternity schol
arcLip averages on the campus,
Prof. E. F. Schramm, faculty ad
visor for the group, issued a word
of warning to the delegates.
"Nebraska fraternities have
been getting too much unfavorable
comment out in the state for their
scholastic showing last semester,"
he said. "It behooves you to pass
this word of warning along to your
houses, and see that some concen
trated effort is made to raise the
all fraternity average above the all
university average."
Rush Committee Named.
Leon Carroll, Jim Crabill and
Ralph Spencer are the additional
members of the rushing committee
appointed last night. Heretofore
the sole member has been Irving
Walker, chairman of the commit
tee to oversee campus fraternity
rushing activities.
Members of the council were re
minded that the deadline for Corn
busker pictures is nearing. and
urged to make an effort to get
their bouses to co-operate 100 per
cent. It was pointed out that fi
nancial difficulties the Cornhusker
might experience this year made

Snipes Says Present Plans
For Nov. 14 Conflict;
Calls Meeting.
MAY DECIDEJ3Y BALLOT
Setting the date for Farmers
Formal, annual frolic on the col
lege of agriculture campus, will be
taken up as major business when
the Ag executive board meets
Friday, Tom Snipes, president,
said yesterday.
The date for this annual event,
as listed now, is Nov. 14, but cer
tain conflicts seem to have arisen,
Snipes indicated. Thoro discussion
will be given the matter at the
next meeting, he added.
Farmers Formal is restricted
largely to college of agricuture
students. Men attend in overalls
and women appear in gingham
dresses and aprons. The president
said that he hopes a definite date
can be arranged Friday so that
other plans may be drawn up.
Home Ec. Ag Clubs Co-operate.
The committee which has charge
of all detailed arrangements is to
be headed by the presidents of
both home economics club and Ag
club, Snipes explained. Each presi
dent will draw up a list of mem
bers from the respective organiz
ations to serve in the various
capacities. The lists will be com
bined, so that men and women
will be working together on the
same committees.
There is some talk of holding a
, Neral student election to decide
a u'ie, Snipes said. The president,
however, does not think this will
be necessary.
Other matters which will come
up before the board will include
the drawing up of a set of rules
regulating Ag mixers which are
now being held regularly in tUe
students activities building on the
agricultural campus.
"We intend to draw up a set of
regulations concerning the organ
i z a t i o n s sponsoring mixers
Snipes announced. "These rules
must be followed closely or it will
be necessary to deny further
privileges to those organizations
in regard to social functions."

League of Nations Editor
Talks at Vespers
Services.
Dr. J. William Terry, nationally
known political authority, spoke
at Vesper services last evening on
the subject of "Gandhi's Contribu
tion to Disarmament." Dr. Terry
is managing editor of the League
of Nations Chronicle of New York.
"Gandhi's contribution has been
two-fold," said Terry. "He has re
minded us that there is in the
world another force other than
practicality, that there is a spir
itual strength which we muct lee
ognize. He has no hope for dis
armament because men are not
putting the spiritual element into
it. He says that nations will dis
arm only when man comes to real
ize that love and religion are the
principal things in the world."

of the Y. W. C. A. interna

Detrick Explains Party's
Reasons for Not
Making Move.
SEEKING JUSTIFICATION
Will Act Unless Conditions
Are Improved by Class
Officers Soon.
BY THE OBSERVER.
Because tho Yellow Jackets
want to give Blue Shirts "two
weeks of grace" in cider that they
may justify the existence of class
presidencies by doing something
constructive is the reason they did
not present their "abolition resolu
tion" at the student council meet
ing last, week, according to Otis
Detrick, president.
"Wc agree entirely with the Blue
Shirts that class presidencies are
a tradition of long standing on the
campus, that they are a tradition
which we hate to see go by the
board," Detrick dec'ared.
"That is why we are extending
this last chance for them to jus
tify the offices. We realize that
last year they made a promise
of constructive work which they
were unable to fulfill. The faction
is still of the concerted opinion
that these officers have passed
their period of usefulness and have
a detrimental effect on the value
of school traditions as a whole.
However, we wish to be absolutely
fair in the treatment of such a
vital matter and are waiting until
the council meeting next week be
fore taking any action."
Must Organize Soon.

respective classes has not been be

Forensic Honorary to Take

Members of Delta Sigma Rho,

hold their first meeting Thursday
evening at 7:30 in room 106. Uni

Among things to be considered
at the meeting is the question of
eligible members for initiation, a
report from Carl J. Maroid, dele
gate to the national convention
and the question of colored mem
bership in the 'society.
At present colored men are ex

individual chapters the national
organization of the group will feel
out current sentiment on the ques
tion. The question for considera
tion in this case is whether the
group shall continue to exclude
colored members, whether it hhall
automatically remove the color
line, or whether the matter should
be left to the option of the respec
tive chapters.
The group will also discuss
plans for making Delta Sigma Rho

Pan-Hellenic Fete
Coliseum Into
BY LAURENCE HALL.
Last night was one night of the
year when the barren aspect of
the university field house was
changed to a scene of festive ac
tivity. From barren and cold
domain for athletes the immense
floor of the coliseum was trans
formed to a banquet hall, for last
night was the occasion for the
annual Pan-Hellenic banquet, at
tended by over a thousand sorority
women.
Shutting the spectacle from the
sight of any vulger athletes who
might have been lingering near
the front of the coliseum were
the large green curtains familiar
to basketball fans. But once be
hind these curtair.s, what a sight
met the eyes! Rows end rows of
tables seemed to stretch to the
limits of the floors. On the tables
the gleaming white of linen ac
centuated the barrenness of the
girders far above.
