The retiring members of the
council were ushered Into office
one year ago impressed with the
peculiar responsibility which was
theirs of Inaugurating a new era in
student government at the Univer
sity of Nebraska. This council has
been the first to operate under the
levlsed council constitution which
one year ago was new and untried.
The realization of the hopes of
those who were instrumental In se
curing the adoption of the new
constitution depended in a large
measure upon the energy and abil
ity of this group.
It was the task of this year's
council to demonstrate to the stu
dents, faculty and administration
that the Student council was cap
able of handling larger tasks, of
Deanng greater responsibilities,

if they signify only haberdashery to the rest of the world.

council has measured up to this
responsibility we will leave it to
others to judge. Suffice it to say
that the council has initiated and
carried to successful conclusions a
number of far reaching reforms as
well as administering its routine
duties in a satisfactory fashion.
THREE MAJOR PROJECTS
Stimulate Activity Interest.
Three major projects have re
ceived council support. At the sug
gestion of the Innocent's society,
the council was pleased to appoint
a representative committee to work
out ways and means for stimuiat
ing Increased scudent participation
In extra curricular activities. The
newly-eptablished Barb organiza
tlon Is the direct outgrowth of the
councils efforts in this direction
This organization is now well on its
feet, The council In the coming
vear will do well to maintain a
kindly interest in the group and
encourage lis growth and develop
ment to the end that student ac
tivities may become more truly
representative of the entire stu
dent body. At such time as the
group is prepared to crystallize its
permanent organization the coun
cil should assist 11 in tne pcnection
and ratification of its constitution.
In this way the Barb group may
take its proper place in the hier
archy of student organizations.
2. Athletic Board Representation.
After two years of effort the
council perfected a plan whereby
the student body might secure rep
resentation upon the Athletic
Board of Control. Such plans were
approved by a referendum vote of
the students. At the present time
the plan is awaiting final action
bv the Board of Regents. We trust
that the Regents win see lit to act
favorably upon the councils pro
posals' formulation. In the event
then devolve upon the new council
to carry into effect the provisions
of the plan in the non-partisan
spirit which prevailed In the pro
posal s'formulation. In the event
that the Board of Regents rejects
the petition, we urge upon the new
council the advisability of confer
ring with the proper authorities so
thai a revised plan may be pre
sented to the regents and some de
gree of representation secured on
this important board for the stu
dents. Should our plans meet tem
porary defeat the new council
must carry on in order that the
council's objective may eventually
be obtained.
3. Renewed Outside Contacts.
This year has witnessed the re
newal of our contacts with the stu
dent governing bodies in other
schools. The council delegated cer
tain of Its members to attend the
congress of the National Student
Federation of America at Toledo.
The recommendation of the dele
gates was that the Nebraska coun
cil not affiliate with the N. S. F. A.
The trip, however, which was
made possible through the co-operation
of the university adminis
tration, in allowing an added item
on the council budget, was produc
tive of much satisfaction by the
delegates as to the structure and
operation of activities at Ne
braska. A direct result of the trip
was the recent helpful conference
of delegates from councils in the
Big Six. The responsibility for
maintaining interest in future con
ferences lies with the new council
Sinecure Offices Reduced.
By council action the number of
sinecure campus offices was re
duced through the removal of the
minor class presidencies. It Is to
be hoped that the new council win
continue the work of simplifying
and integrating the structure of
student activities, in at least one
instance the council satisfactorily
adjudicated an inter-organization
disnute the Kosmet Klub-I.sw
College difficulties oeuig smooiaeu

SuDerviaed Migrations.
The responsibility for student
migrations to football games was
assumed by the council in a satis
factory manner. Over 1,400 people
attended the Nebraska-Kansas
Aggie game at Manhattan under
council supervision. mure coun
cils will do well to co-operate with
the dean of student affairs in ef-
feitlnar the proper handling of
such expeditions.
Aealn this vear the council re
quested the Innocents society to
assume cnarge or rallies wun ic
assists nee of the Corn Cobs and
rpass'ls. The fine record made by
the Innocents in this matter would
lend weight to the recommenda
tion that they bo authorized to ar
range for rallies next year.
Recommends Improvements.
The chair suggests to the new
council the advisability of perfect
ing tho council's machinery for
handling the constitutions of new
organizations. Some way should
be devised whereby a close check
could be maintained on these
groups. A definite policy should
also be established relative to
granting permission for subscrip
tion dances. These have increased
la number to the point that they
constitute a problem. We recom
mend that next year's council In
vestigate the feasibility of install
ing a unit tax system for the sup
port of activities at Nebraska.
council non-riamn.
The chair wishes to take this
nnnortunltv to express to the re
tiring members of the council bis
appreciation for tne ertort wnicn
they have exerted in the success
ful execution of the council's meas
ures. The wholesome non-partisan
spirit which has prevailed in the
council during the past year stands
as witness to the earnest desire of
the council's members to serve the
Interests of the university as a
whole rather than the interests of
any group or faction.
Adviser tompiimenieo.
The council has been most for
verdict in favor of the new Blue
Shirt faction, the old name of
"Oily Sixes" lost its significance.
The Daily Nebraskan under the
editorship of Kill Cejnar wished to
promote interest in the spring elec
tion of 1927. The "Slippery
Sevens" changed their names and
held special rallies before the elec
tion. A plan was decided upon
whereby all members of that fac
tion would don blue shirts In order
that they might be distinguished
from their rivals. The results of
the Daily Nebraskan's efforts
were shown by the number of
votes cast in the election. The
election of 1927 was the biggest
since 1921. Crowds of students
flocked to the polls and the result
was a clean sweep for the new
Blue Shirt faction.
The earlier names of "North
Side" and "South Side" were dis
carded because many of the fra
ternities had moved. Before the
organization of these factions polt
tices had been more or less of a
free-for-all.
such interested and able people as
Miss Anderson and Mr. Lantz.
Their untiring devotion and valu
able advice in securing the best
ends of the council have been
sources of inspiration and renewed
vigor for the student members of
the council. The new members
will do well to consult the council's
advisers freely upon all questions.
The chair urges that the close
contact which has characterized
our relations with the university
administration be maintained. The
success of the council's efforts de
pends in a large measure upon the
maintenance of a spirit of har
mony and mutual confidence. This
spirit can best be maintained by
working shoulder to shoulder with
all those parties who are inter
ested in better sludent government
at Nebraska.
Respectfully submited,
E. J. FAULKNER,
President.
