Campus Leaders Expect Cut
In Cost of Displays for
This Year.
WOLF HEADS COMMITTEE
Maximum of Twenty-Five
Dollars Placed on
House Expense.
Fraternity and sorority home
coming decorations will be dis
played quite as illuminating this
year as In years of past. Beyond
that, they will be much cheaper,
if the concensus expressed last
night by deans and campus leaders
can be accepted as a criterion.
Altho many Nebraska students
are seemingly financially pressed
at present, the erection of Home
coming decorations Is considered
such a worthy tradition that the
"welcoming displays" will illumi
nate the foreground of sorority
ind fraternity rows in spite of ad
verse conditions.
According to Art Wolf, head of
ill plans for Homecoming, much
more attention will be paid this
year to the cost of the decorations.
"Judges will be instructed to
throw out arbitrarily, sets which
.hey believe to have, cost more
'.nan the specified sum, 25," says
Volf. "What the judges are look
ing for is originally of idea rather
than the expensive decoration. Of
couvse, the tradition should be
carried on, but this is an excep
tional year and I believe that
returning alums will appreciate
decorations even tho they do cost
a little less than in previous
years."
The maximum cost of any set
of decorations is set at $25, but
many fraternal organizations are
. ontriving sets which will be much
cheaper.
It was explained by Edwin Falk
ner, Innocent and president of the
student council, that by careful
planning and the creation of
simple, yet striking displays, the
decorations can be made an equal
nr even superior to those of previ
ous years and at much less cost.
Dean F. C. Harper in comment
ing on the decorative plans for
this year, said that since there has
been such a great deal of interest
shown In this tradition, both by
'students and alumni, it appears
to be the uppermost in activities.
"Nebraska must maintain her cus
toms, especially one of such worth,
and with due consideration to
piesent conditions, Homecoming
decorations can te carried out
with a small sum," said Harper.
"Why not give up lesser activi
ties and deny insignificant but
costly things to maintain such a
tradition as homecoming if found
necessary," was the question a3ked
by most of those questioned on the
subject.

Editor of League Chronicle
Says flussia Wanted
Disarmament.
DELEGATES 'BAD BOYS'
In picturing the part played by
Russia in the Geneva disarmament
conference, Dr. J. William Terry,
speaking before about sixty at
World Forum, Wednesday noon,
described their repeated insistence
that the purpose of the gathering
was disarmament.
"When the Russian delegation
proposed disarmament of Russia,
provided the rest of the world
would agree," declared Terry, who
witnessed the sessions of the con
ference as a representative of the
American press, "it required six
weeks to demonstrate to them how
impossible this plan would be."
The soviet representatives were
described by Terry as the "bad
boys of the conference." "But
had their bluff been called, had
the conference agreed to disarm
as Russia suggested, they would
have either met with success in
the ideal they established, or
placed Russia in an exceedingly
embarrassing position. ,
The prejudice against the dele
gation from Russia, which arose,
according to the Bpeaker, from the
fear they felt of the spread of
communistic principles, manifested
itself in the treatment they re
ceived in almost every quarter.
The hotel which they made their
headquarters agreed to accommo
date them only on condition that
they mingle at no time with other
guests. The Russians used a pri
vate entrance, and were forced to

BY THE OBSERVER.
That the office of class president
is a tradition which should by all
means be preserved was reiterated
yesterday by Norman Galleher,
Blue Shirt president, as an answer
to the charge of Otis Detrick, Yel
low Jacket leader who maintains
that they have passed their period
of usefulness and should be abol
ished. "For a university of this size,
Nebraska has very few traditions
as compared with other "schools,"
declared Galleher. "It is an ac
cepted fact on other campuses that
this school is lacking in traditions.
To abolish class presidencies would
simply mean that campus prestige
would drop another notch in the
estimation of other schools."

abolition of class presidencies,"
Galleher asserted. "In addition to
adding color, the offices or class
president do serve a purpose on the
ramniia. As an illustration of these
we may point to the duties of
choosing tug oi war teams wmwu
class presidents will have to per
form for freshmen and sopho

Not only will we oppose any

DATE INNOVATION
Klub Will Produce Morning
Revue Nov. 7 Instead
Thanksgiving.
DEPART FROM CUSTOM
Group Says Many Students
Leave Lincoln During
Vacation Period.
Kosmet Klub yesterday issued
a statement in answer to the
many requests of why the tradi
tional Thanksgiving date for the
morning revue has been changed.
It reads: "Kosmet Klub this
year has failed to observe the tra
ditional date of the morning show
In order to accommodate the fra
ternities, sororities, and others
takincr part. In former years, it
has always been necessary for
members of the cast to spend at
least part of their Thanksgiving
day holiday in Lincoln so as to
take part in the show Thanksgiv
ing morning.
"It hardlv seems fair that these
students should be discriminated
against. Even though being in a
Kosmet Klub show is a good activ
ity and a reward for any incon
veniences and labor invjl-":l. it
does not seem right that members
of the show should have to forfeit
part of a holiday.
Students Leave Wednesday.
"Therefore, in order to allow cat
members to leave for ..cation on
Wednesday night as the great ma
jority of students do in order at
least, to grve them rreeaom to ao
as they please on Thanksgiving,
Kosmet Klub has changed the date
of the show." '
Members of the club, when in
terviewed further regarding the
statement, said they did not be
lieve the change would displease
any, since the show is the same as
it has always been and will be
given in the morning before a foot
ball game, as in the past.
Nov. 7 was chosen for the show
date instead of Thanksgiving, said
the members, because the Iowa
university game seems to compare
with the big games which formerly
have been played here on Thanks
giving. Cb " members feel, they
say, tl r.t the Iowa game will draw
as representative a crowd of par
ents and visitors as a Thanksgiv
ing game would. And since it is
the wish of Kosmet Klub, they
said, to entertaiit the parents as
well as students and advertise the
university's dramatic talents to
them, the day when the greatest
number would be here would be
the logical day to show.

Tug-of-War Between Classes

Whether freshman must con

cream caps will be determined by
a tug-of-war between the halves
of the Iowa football game, Nov.
7, according to Edwin Faulkner,
member of the Innocents society.
On that day, Harold Soderlund,
freshman president, will present a
team of twelve fellow classmen to
compete against a similar team of
sophomores, picked by their pres
ident, George Sauer, to decide the
issue.
Contrary to the practice in the
past the Innocents society is urg
ing freshmen to save their caps
as reminders of the privilege of
wearing them, since they are no
longer green, but instead are made
in colors representative of the
school.
If freshmen lose the tug-of-war
they will not be permitted to dis

wear them until the snow flies.

"We desire to form a glee club

Hollingsworth stated. "A univers
ity of this size should have a great

good voices, and we should be able
to form a club worthy of compari

"In addition, membership in the

on. "KFAB plans to broadcast

Honorary Sees Big Demand
For Ducats at Dollar
Per Couple.
Corncobs were placed in official
charge of ticket sales for the all
university Homecoming party last
night when the body unanimously
accepted the Innocents' proposal
for such a plan.
Ten tickets were checked out to
each member of the organization,
according to Marvin Schmid, presi
dent. Each man will canvass his
respective house and have tickets
on hand for all alumni who come
in for the traditional event.
Because this party will be the
only event of the night, all fra
ternities and sororities and the
Barb council having agreed to
make Oct. 24 a closed night, it is
predicted that there will be a great
demand for tickets. Anyone living
apart from the fraternities who is
likely to be missed in the sales
campaign can obtain tickets by
calling any one of the Corncobs.
The members of Pi Epsilon Pi,
in taking over the ticket sales, are
attempting to do their share in
making the event a complete suc
cess, says Schmid. All other cam
pus organizations are co-operating
with the Innocents and assisting
them in every manner possible.
Miss Heppner Approves Party.
The proposed event is one that
has met with great approval with
both faculty and students. Ex
pressing her desire that it shoull
be a great success, Miss Amanda
Heppner. dean of women said "Any
project that will bring about the
unity and cohesion among students
is quite worth while."
The Innocents, in hope that this
proposed event for homecoming
shall become a cherished tradition,
are making elaborate plans.
Are Wolf, general chairman, ex
plained that it was the wish of the
organization sponsori-? the party
to make it one that would replace
the many parties annually held by
the various fraternal organizations
on the campus on the nipbt of
homecoming. Its primary purpose
is to make the day of homecoming
one that every alumnus will at
tend. It is to be a meeting place
for all alumni, a place where they
may meet their fellow school
mates. Backers of the proposed event
declare that it will "buck up"
student enthusiasm and prevent
school spirit from dying. And it
will make for a greater welcome
for all the "old grads."
