NO longer will students dance in j the cheerless barrenness of a , barnlike structure or pay Immense ! amounts of money to make the big airdomt over on Vine street at- j tractive. No longer will it be nec essary to strain one's ears to hear the faint voice of a speaker as it ! disperses into the upper reaches of j the rafters. The coliseum is to be . made into an auditorium or a dance hall sufficiently commodious and yet presentable to make a de cent setting for a number of cam pus events which heretofore have had to put up with the poor facili ties on this campus. The much talked of permanent decorations are purchased, largely paid for, and will be ready for use next year. If this is not a tangible evidence of the value of student enterprise none can ever be found. The In nocents society, with the co-operation of other student organizations bent their energies to raising the money for this, permanent im provement of the campus. The benefits to be derived may with out exaggeration be expected to be of real iijnificance to campus life. i T the first of this past year the JTik Nebraskan talked of joint fraternity and sorority parties as an economy measure. The chief olfaction to this plan lay in the fact that there was no place in town large enough to aceommo aate such parties except the coli seum, which was so unattractive as to be impractical. This objec tion is now removed. Joint par tics, if they are desired, could be ea.'ily promoted. Thsre has been much talk of the need for some auditorium where the major share of the student body can be gathered together. Ths coliseum has been the only place where such gatherings could be held, and what a place! With th3 permanent decorations in Etalled, the coliseum should be util ized much more frequently for such gatherings, and there can be no dcubt that it will be almost en ti e!y satisfactory. The only ob jection will be in the fact that the chairs in the coliseum are not sta tionary. It is particularly noticeable that this project was put over in this 3'ear of poverty. And yet no stu dent or group of students was obliged to sacrifice much for the realization of the plan. It is mere ly an example of the constructive use to which the collective profits of various student enterprises can be put. Congratulations to all those who bad a part in the realization of these permanent decorations and congratulations to the student body who will enjoy the benefits of what really amounts to a new building on the campus. A Slight Taste Of )ictory. THE tabulated results of the sen ior poll on the activity tax are published in today's issue of the Daily Nebraskan. Out of a tctal of 2S8 votes, 210 were cast in favor of the plan, and of these 210 affirmative votes, 120 students vcted for every item listed on the ballot. The Nebraskan feels highly elated over this favorable senti ment toward the blanket tax plan as expressed by the senior vote. i We recognize, of course, that the ! senior opinion may be discounted on the grounds that those who voted wi'l not have to pay the tax and hence are more willing to vote for it. But on the other hand we are inclined to feel that a feeling against the plan would manifest itself regardless of the fact that a student would not be in school next year. The Nebraskan will have ceased publishing before the result of the poll of underclassmen is known. Therefore the Nebraskan must take what satisfaction it can for whatever part it has played in in fluencing opinion on the activity tax plan from the results of the senior poll. While the vote of the seniors is interesting and may fairly be as sumed to give some indication of campus opinion on the tax plan, it is the vote of the underclassmen which will be taken next week during registration which will really determine the fate of the tax plan. The Nebraskan sincere ly hopes that the underclassmen will find the idea as acceptable or even more so than the seniors. Lets Hare Some Action. THE matter of the reorganiza tion of the Interfraternity council, recently brought up for quite a bit of discussion but very little action, has apparently been forgotten. This is but another evi dence of a lack of interest on the part of the greater number of stu dents in organizations whose wel fare and prestige is entirely de pendent upon the respect accorded them by those same students. Such matters furnish topics for conver sation, and if any action is ever taken, very few students are in volved or even interested. Now is the logical time for fra ternities to take a definite stand on tbd matter. The present school year is almost over, and if any re organization is to take place, it should be accomplished now in or der that the new council may start functioning with the opening of school -next fall. All houses will have at least one more meeting before the semester is closed In which to decide on this matter, and in the meantime it would be well for all fraternity men to spend a little time thinking about the pro posed plan for reorganization. Older fraternity men, as well as faculty men closely connected with the students and acquainted with fraternity life and problems, have openly endorsed the plan. No rea sonable fraternity man will deny that the council at the present time is a political organization and much weaker than it should be. The merits of the plan of reorgani zation, which would provide for a senior man to represent his fra ternity on the council, are too obvious for discussion. But whether the fraternities favor a change or not, now is the time to act. The council will have one more meeting, and with the opinion of every fraternity ex pressed, the council can accom plish something. N. CLUB Will Meet. Officers will be elected at a meeting of the N club in the N club rooms Tuesday evening at 7:30.
