The Unicameral
Legislature.
Tt is a vital issue tliat 1ms been
laised by Senator Norris in his
proposal fur a ch-'in;-,o in the legis
lative branch of state government.
Pontiment ir similiir revision of
governmental structure, turning
from bicameral to unicameral sys
tems, has been given attention
thruout the country at intervals,
and now in Nebraska, public
opinion is apparently to be given
the opportunity of passing juiig
men on the plan for a one-house
legislative body.
The provisions of the constitu
tional amendment drafted by Nor
ris. embody a legislative organ to
be composed of twenty-one mem
bers, elected for four years on a
non-partisan basis from districts
apportioned, presumably, according
to population Under this plan pro
ponents believe that many of the
problems facing modern legisla
tors will be solved.
It may be pointed out for ex
ample, that Increasing complexity
of governmental problems has not
found the bicameral legislative ar
rangement capable of adapting it
oir in mnilpin conditions. Legisla
tors are faced with the sheer im
possibility of fulfilling their duties
adequately when those duties in
volve highly complex economic
and social factors, and it is sound
politics to point to this inability as
the cause oi umsaiHimtuuu
legislative wrangling among vot
ers. The unicameral plan, by simpli
fv;nr o-nvnrnmpntal structure and
drawing representation from larg
er districts, is designed to elimi
nate this criticism and this dissat
isfaction.
of criticism of
the bicameral legislature the Nor
ms plan aims to remove ccnino
around the proolem of adequate
representation. Again and again
critics of the two-nouse irgisinuvc
arrangement have pointed out that
t, nnin.rnmi.llta WOllld be lllUCh
the better without the overlapping
that so unnecessarily occurs miner
,. hir-BTTiprHi svstem. Duplication
of representation is entirely elimi
nated witn a one-nouse u-Kimi..i.
Advantages of the unicameral
theory, however, are probably not
as ink-resting as the factors that
will actually influence voters when
their ballots are cast in 1934. The
Nebraskan thinks itself entirely
unqualified as a political dope ped
dler but there are some things
that will probably be of importance
in public eyes.
One of these factors is the sav
ing that would be made under the
n.iramsni si-stpm. The zeal of
voters for tax cuts ought to be
soothed somewhat oy me rcuin.
tion in expense promised by the
Norris proposal. The other con
sideration that may be influential
is the reputation of Norris himself
fr.y i-ionr-Kiirhted idealism in public
affairs. How much weight either
of these factors may De given can
not, of course, be determined.
Thoro i no WAV of telling what
the alignment of' interests within
the state actually will oe irom now
until the popular decision, but
whatever the course of the con
troversy it is certain to excite keen
interest thruout the state.
About
Honoraries.
CLEVEN senior men and women
were made members of Beta
Gamma Sigma, national scholar-
shin honorary in the College of
Business Administration, at the
fraternity's annual fall initiation
held Wednesday night. This organ
ization, altho it escapes any great
amount of general attention, is
comparable Phi Beta Kappa in the
arts college, and ranks among the
"honorarles" so often the subject
of student criticism.
It cannot be denied that the pres
tige of scholastic honorarles has
suffered somewhat in past years.
There has been criticism from two
angles. It has been charged that
the "grade" basis for recognition
was at fault, and that many hon
orarles had lost sight of their pur
poses by a confusion of values.
This latter criticism was based on
what seemed a tendency to make
membership in honorarles an end
in itself.
Both of these criticisms were
undoubtedly justified to some ex
tent, . and perhaps vestiges of the
foundation for them remain. But
saner views of the honoraries and
their significance demand that
their merits be recognized, along
with the criticisms that have been
made.
ti eVinniri hp Admitted, for ex
(hot murh nf thp criticism
that has been levelled against
grades and grade-getters has no
substantial basis. It should also be
that the Inflexibility of
a grading system which may be
thought objectionaoie nas iiiue

ries themselves. For the honoraries
do have value.
Honorary recognition, in itself, is
mr,t,r caa an end toward which
student effort is directed with in
tensity, the honor organizations
have small value. Their value is
rather as an indication of some de
gree of intellectual achievement.
That is the light in which they
hop seen hv students, and
that is the only goal the honories
should seek; more destroys their
purpose.

TO THE EDITOR:
A short time ago the student
council proposed in its meeting
that it should control a series of
Varsity parties which would be
held from time to time during the
year. Plans as formulated since
that time call for a committee of
iweivj wuiiu wuuiu bujici i.-ic
these affairs. The personnel of the
council would be three sorority
women, three fraternity men, three
hnrh women, nnd three barb men.
If present plans go thru success
fully mere is me possiouuy mat
several such affairs will be held
during this present school year.
varsiiy parlies, wun an siuaenis
on the campus partaking, have
long been the ideal of many of the
students on the campus, notably
those unaffiliated ones who have
been in charge of the All Univer
sity parties. A democratic atti
tude prevailing on the campus,
minus the smug complacency so
characteristic of some groups, with
a friendly congeniality, is just
what is necessary, and what
should stand as the goal of Varsity
parties. The question is whether or
not such a boay as has been pro
r.f.afid hv thp student council to be
placed in control could possibly
brine about the filling of this
nfnrl
Thro-j barb men and three barb
women, three fraternity men, and
three sorority women. Even in the
formation of that committee is
seen an attempt at compromise
and conciliation. A line has de

between affiliated and unaffiliated
students. Constant warfare would

Several years ago varsiiy par

The Schlatter
Affair.
Tha t-Bf-pnt nuhlicitv of the in
eligibility of Ulysses Schlueter has
caused a great amount of com
ment on the campus.
Students who seldom have much
to say about athletics as a whole
are talking, arguing and condemn
ing. Some of these students are
not acouainted with the truef acts
of the case and are making allega
tions and criticisms wnicn are to
tally unfounded. Many are accus
ing Coach Fred C. xnomsen oi
having previous knowledge of
Schlueter having piayeu at ie-
hrnakn hilt e-nlne' on and ulaying
him anyway and trying to get by
with it. This assertion is anauru.
Thomsen would have been the
world's biggest fool had he done
such a thing. In the first place
he would certainly nave cnangeu
Schlueter's unusual name and
would not have allowed any pic
tures of him sent out all over the
country.
Knsmortino -wolves" sensed a
connection between Schlueter's not
playing in the S. M. U. game and
a coach "in the know" who held
him out of the game. On the day
of that particular game Schlueter
told Thomsen that he was "too
sick" to see any action and was
held out of the game because of
that excuse. Many are also won
dering why "Heinnie" could not
win a reguiar berth in the Porker
line after making a letter at Ne
braska, suspecting that he was
being held out by the coaches as
much as possible to avoid discov
ery. Schlueter was a good tackle
but he did not show anything down
htm V4a u-na not in the best of
condition and he was competing
against John Measei, a man wm
could make most any football
laam In thp rnnntrv.
This unfortunate thing could
happen to any football team in the
United States. School officials do
not make a practice of investigat
ing the past history of the stu
dents, relying upon them to give
the true f acts of their preparatory
training. Heinie Schlueter, a very-
likeable boy, is not. to De compieLe

liked football and wanted to play
and when he was ruled out at rve
hrnskn he came down here. Had
v, oinmuii tn thinit of the conse
nt owu "
quences of being found ineligible
he would not nave laaen me rp
he did.
The whole situation does not
amount to what many people think
it does. Careful consideration by
r-nnfprpnre officials Will Clear up
thp matter satisfactorily. ine
newspapers have a good story
here and they are playing it up all

not to blame and the coaching
staff is not to blame. The entire

fact that the RazorbacKs are lav

Failure of
Dutch Dates.
That women should pay half the
expenses of a date Is the conten
tion of Miss Susan M. Guild, dean
of women at Washburn College.
iVfimen studeents usually have
mnrp mnnev to snend than men,
she says, and should therefore pay
their own way to an campus
dances and entertainments.
The question of "dutch treating"
by women raged at universities
throughout the uniteo. otaiea
rui v..nrs hpo when the effects of
the depression were first felt.
Co-eds all over tne counuy
promised to pay half of all dates
that thev had with college men.
But after the full glare of publicity
had been turned on the movement.
It soon fizzled and died out com
pletely. It was doomed from the start.
Co-eds agreed that "dutch treat
ing" was a fine thing and that It
was the only fair and right thing
to do. but they seldom, if ever,
lived up to the agreements of the
.uijtr. ,
