LAW STUDENTS IN
PROTEST AGAINST
COUNCIL'S RULING
Intend Further Action on
Nebraska Sweetheart
Election.
TWO COURSES ARE OPEN
May Have Mass Meeting or
Appeal to University
Senate Committee.
Leaders of the law college stu
dents who have been protesting
the action of Kosmct Klub In pass
in? a rule limiting eligibility of
Nebraska Sweetheart candidates
to sophomores and juniors In
school, are still not satisfied with
the result of the controversy as the
Student Council left it. At pres
ent, there is some indecision as to
what course will be followed, ac
cording to one of the leaders, who
requested that he not be quoted
until definite action is decided
upon.
The council, in a special meeting
Wednesday, decided by a vote of
19 to 5 to allow the election of the
X-A.taalra Gu'ttot lion rt t f stAnil A5t
it was conducted, in other words to i
disregard the petition or the law
college men to throw out the elec
tion. The council declared in its
opinion that the election was fair
and that the eligibility ruling of
Kosmet Klub was justifiable and
non-discriminatory.
May Appeal.
From the decision of the council,
any group is entitled to present an
appeal to the university senate. At
the council meeting Wednesday,
Walter Huber, one of the law rep
resentatives, and also a member
of the council, requested informa
tion on the proper procedure for
conducting an appeal. Whether or
not this appeal is to be carried to
the senate, the law leaders are not
prepared to say, although they in
dicated the probability of doing so.
Earlier in the controversy there
was some talk of calling a mass
meeting. TJie new student council
constitution, provides for the call
ing of such a meeting by the presi
dent of the council if a petition for
h meeting is presented bearing the
signatures of a certain number of
student Such a mass meeting
can adopt resolutions and pass mo
tions expressing opinion, but its
decisions or resolutions have no ac
tual effect.
That such a mass meeting will
not be called as some expected,
was definitely stated by one of the
men engaged in pushing the law
college case. He indicated that
whatever is done will be decided
upon by Friday.
The law college representatives
have thruout the contest objected
to the office being called Ne
braska sweetheart when the quali
fications for holding the office are
determined by a small group, the
Kosmet Klub. It rather appears,
therefore, that their action may be
directed away from attempting to
have the election nullified, toward
getting recognition of their con
tention that the sweetheart must
either be called Kosmet Klub
sweetheart, or else have her quali
fications determined by a more
representative group.

Authorities Invite Huskers
To Salt Lake City for
Post Season Meet.
COLORADO BANS GAME
The University of Utah has sub
mitted a bid to the Cornhusker
team for a pcst-?eason chanty
game to be staged at Salt Lake
City upon the completion of the
schedules of both teams. Utah au
thorities wired Herbert D. Gish,
director of athletics, an invitation
for a game after the Cornhusker
authorities had been considering a
post-season game with Colorado
Aggies et Denver. Colorado au
thorities put a ban on a charity
game because of faculty objection.
The Cornhuskers had favored a
charity mix with the Colorado
Aggies over the Utah game be
cause of the shorter trip. The
Huskers play Pittsburgh on Pitt's
home field on TbankFgivir.ir day
and it seemed inadvisable to make
a long trek after so lengthy a
journey.
With Colorado Aggies definitely
out of tee picture as an opponent
it is not definitely known bow the
athletic department will react to
the Utah invitation. Director Gi3h
stated that no definite decision has
been reached as to whether the
Huskers will tackle a Ftoqky moun
tain region team and it is r.ot
known what the reaction to the
Utah game will be.
Ltnver university and Colorado
university are carrying on nego
tiations for a charity game but it
is thought that the Colorado uni
versity authorities will follow in
the footsteps of the Colorado
Aggie school and refuwe to partici
pate in a post-ceafon encounter.

The day's program included
many speakers of state and na

University of Chicago, and Gov

The program of yesterday morn

were held Wednesday night in
honor of those who came early.
Governor Bryan, in bis talk to
those assembled, indicated that
schools play a great part in the re
construction which is to come.
After welcoming the teachers the
governor said, in the main, that if
a child starts out without regard
for honesty and that child is given
an education, he becomes our
worst public menace. Our real
danger today is not from reds,
communists or such, but it is from
the learned crook.
In continuing, he declared the
state was vitally interested in co
operating with the teachers in
their work and that governmental
officials had no desire to reduce
teachers' salaries. He thought it
was perfectly permissable for mar
ried women to teach in the public
schools if the woman was helping
