Except for a period in univer

ye:ir the Student Council after
making an extensive survey of
conditions in other schools which
revealed that in most institutions
students had representation, sub
mitted the question in an over
whelming vote in favor of student
representation on the athletic

Thp council then petitioned thr
Board of Regents for such reprc- j

matter to the Athletic board which
made a few minor changes in the
council's proposal.
The regents then approved the
plan, allowing the students two

to be elected each year, one by Uk'
Student council from its own mm
bership. and the other by the
"N" club from its membership.

EXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES AT
THE UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA
Published through the co-operation of the Inno
cents society in the interests of students, new and old,
who are not fully acquainted icith activities, their or
gantsation, purposes and benefits, as they operate at the
University of Xcbrasla, uith the hope that a greater
number tcill avail themselves of the opportunities of
fered, thereby putting into the whole activities organiza
tion a revitalized interest among the entire student
body.

Iit, describing component rHnlf.-
tliim iif the rxtrn-rurrlrulnr iirosrmm

POLITICS.
Politics on a university campus
is something a little difficult to de
scribe to one not acquainted with,
the organization and operation of
the system. To account for its ex
istence is, nevertheless, simple. A
phenomenon characteristic of dem
ocratic government everywhere is
that where there are public offi
cials to be elected by popular vote,
there spring up organized groups
seeking the promotion of their
own good or adoption of their own
programs through election of their
members to those offices. This ap
plies as well to university student
government as to local, state or
national government in this coun
try. There are officers to be elec
ted and it is only natural that
there are political factions.
By calling it "politics" we do not
impiy the existence of corruption
and throatcutting tactics. If these
exist, they are not prevalent. We
merely denote the nominating sys
tem of candidates for elective stu
dent offices. The system at Ne
braska of course has its g-ood and
bad points. But this is not the
place for a discussion of these.
The purpose here is to describe the
system briefly.
Since the most obvious division
of students is between those who
are members of fraternities and
sororities and those who are not,
this is the first line of political
cleavage. Members of the frater
nity group are called "Greeks." be
cause of the Greek letter names
of their organizations. The unaffil
iated students are called "Barbs,"
in no sense a term of reproach.
Within the fraternity group,
however, there are two factions,
Blue Shirt and Yellow Jacket, be
tween which rivalry is generally
greater than between the Barb and
Greek groups as a whole. The
Barb faction, as the recognized
political organization of the unaf
filiated students, completes the
three party system recognized by
the student council.
This system was further compli
cated last spring by the addition
of a new unaffiliated students
group organized by the student
council at the suggestion of the
Innocents society that greater par
ticipation of unaffiliated students
in activities would promote a re
vived interest in extra-curricular
undertakings. It is expected, how
ever, that the two barb groups
will in general co-operate, although
the new organization Is intended
rather to supplement than to re
place the old barb group. The new
group is organized on a house-club
plan paralleling that of fraternity
factions.
Each of the existing factions is
organized as a perpetuating body
with representatives from the sev
eral member houses meeting at the
call of officers of the group, which
consist of a president, vice presi
dent and secretary.
Campaigns preceding elections
are carried out by publicity in the
Daily Kebraskan, house-to-house
canvassing and pep rallies, or sere
nades. The Student council forbids
expending any money on cam
paigns and this rule is strictly en
forced. Climax of campus politics
i? the annual spring election when
members of the Student council
and student members to the Publi
cation board are elected for the
succeeding year.
Division on political faction lines
within other campus organizations
is generally discouraged and active
participation in campus politics by
members of the Society of Inno
cents is absolutely banned by that
group. Political contests take the
form of friendly rivalry rather
than bitter fights and major dis
turbances are a thing of the past.
During the past two years the
Blue Shirt faction, largest in num
EgYxHIEi
ber of member houses of the two
fraternity factions, has held a dis
proportionate number of elective
student offices because of an un
balanced political setup. Last
spring, however, an increased in
terest in student elections
prompted by the new Barb clubs
resulted in a record vote and about
an even division of offices between
the two fraternity factions with
the Barbs once more electing rep
resentatives to the P-tudent council
after a year without membership
on that body. Observers believe
this balance indicates a healthy
condition in student politics and
heralds an era of more general in
terest in extra-curricular activities
by the study body as a whole.
Wompn do not participate in
faction politics, but run as inde
pendent candidates in all student
eletcions.
LATE BULLETINS
AUSTIN, Tex. Police last week
took into custody an apparently
demented youth, described as a
"half-wit," whom they sought to
question in connection with the
murder of Edgar Collins Arledge.
jr., University of Texas senior.
Arledge was shot to death on
the night of September 19 as he
sat in a parked automobile with
Miss Margaret Jean Trull, whi
was graduated from the university
last June. Miss Trull was wounded
slightly by the unidentified ats
sailant. Arledge was a nephew of
Dr. Eugene C. Barker, professor of
history at the university.
As a result of the murder, Pro
fessor E. T. Mitchell of the univer
sity philosophy department, pro
posed that "petting zones" be set
aside so that students might be
protected from bandits.
"Though not desirable, it is in
evitable that young men and
women should go riding in cars
and park them," he declared.
"They have been driven from well
lighlid roads into out-of-way
spots, where they attract murder
ers and maniacs."
PASADENA, Calif. Ellsworth
Vines jr., national tennis cham

marry Miss Verle Low, his former
classmate at Pasadena Junior Col

20-year-old champion is to appeal
in a series of exhibition matches.
MADISON, Wis. Three frater
nities at the University of Wiscon
sin this week were on probation
as the result of asserted violations
of rushing rules adopted by the

The board at that time decided to
eliminate rushing during the pe
