OPENS DRIVE FOR
UNICAMERAL PLAN
i Continued from Page 1).
development of democracy the Ne
braska senior senator described the
development of our present nation
al government. Bringing out the
fact that as education progresses
more changes in the setup of gov
ernment are demanded, he stated
that our people are now sufficient
ly civilized and educated to know
what kind of government they
want and the type of laws they
want enacted to enforce the gov
ernment among themselves.
Stressing the evil of the confer
ence committee, Norris presented
some of the defects of the present
plan of bi-cameral legislatures and
showed where his plan would rem
edy the situation. The conference
committee, he asserted, is, in real
ity, a third house of the legislature
but the people have no voice in its
election. Yet. it is many times "the
most important branch of the leg
islature," he declared. With a one
house body this would be impos
sible. Representation Large.
As to membership the speaker
declared that under the present
system the representation is too
large. With a smaller number as
would be had under the proposal,
much money would be saved for
the taxpayers. "It would not only
do away with many of the evils
that now exist, but the business of
the state would be transacted at
less cost," he stated.
Stating that the state is a busi
ness institution and should be con
ducted on business principles, Nor
ris advanced the idea that mem
bers of the unicameral legislature
should be elected on a nonpartisan
basis. "The issues which divide the
great political parties in our coun
try," he said, "should in no way
interfere with the business opera
tions of the state."
Free From Corruption.
Drawing upon his long experi
ence as a statesman the senator
declared that "A one house legis
lature, composed of comparatively
small number would be much more
free from corrupt influences than
would a two house legislature, or

Slang Expressions on One Campus
Puzzle Students of Other Schools
Kach campus, one finds, has Its
own peculiar pet idioms, the ac
cepted definition of which may not
always be immediately discern
able to visiting students from
other schools. Many slang expres
sions have their origin on the cam
pus and new ones are being coined
every day. The students at At
lanta, Georgia have invented a
campus language of their own,
When an Atlanta "Jelly" tells an
"SYT ' that she is his "HLB," she
knows that life is "mighty prime,"
especially if he is a "B. M. O. C."
But if she tells him he 'hasn't got
a prayer," or is "country," then he
knows that he has "nutted," and
may retaliate by calling her a "but
termilk.' She will then perhaps tell
him that he is "slumpv," or that
ho "cannot take it." Whereas lie
will probably retire to the "dog
house," and that will be the end of
one romance, expressed in terms
of more less modern slang.
Use of Abbreviations.
Georgia Tech, according to Mur
ray Davidson, editor of the Yel
low Jacket, was a pioneer in the
use of abbreviations formed by
initial letters, and Albert "Hoot"
Gibson, who writes "Socially
Speaking," for the "Atlanta Jour
nal" and other Tech publications,
originated a great many of these.
"SYT" means "sweet young
things."
B. M. O. C. means a big man of
the campus at both Tech and
Emory and "jelly" is the successor
to "sheik." HLB means that she is
his "heart's last beat." But, on the
other hand, if a hoy calls a girl
"buttermilk" she is right not to be
pleased, for he means that she is
too young to know any better; that
is, she is too young to claim his
sophisticated interest.
The Oglethorpe university coed,
according to St. Julienne Pringle,
desiring to squelch a young man
who thinks too well of himself, will
simply call him "country." At
Agnes Scott college, according to
Mary Hamilton, editor of the
Agonistic, they would probably
a legislature composed of a large
number of members."
In conclusion Norris stated that
"the proposed amendment would
save money to the taxpayers. It
would go far toward the re-establishment
of a democratic form of
government It w'ould make it
more difficult for dishonest men to
get into office and make it more
difficult for dishonest men to re
main in office."
Rev. B. Wyland acted as
toastmaster at a banquet honoring
Senator Norris Thursday night in
the Hotel Cornhusker.
SECOND MEETING
OF ORGANIZATION
LEADERS IS HELD

which members were nominated
and elected.
Not Chosen On Merit.
It was argued that as things
now are, candidates for the coun
cil are often not chosen on merit
but rather on the basis of provid
ing each member of a political fac
tion with a nominee. Many truly
capable students are thus thru po
litical machinations prevented
from having a voice in the coun
cil, it was contended.
As a partial remedy for the po
litical situation, a proposal to re
move political party affiliations
from the ballot after each candi
date's name was advanced for con
sideration. A suggestion olfered for im
proving the personnel of the coun
cil was that a larger percentage
of the council each year be hold
over members, and thus be quali
fied through experience to do bet
ter work.
The plan of Beverly Finkle for a
student council to be composed of
members of AWS and a proposed
Men's association, and the conse
quent inauguration of a point sys
tem for men's activities, was sub
ject to discussion pro and con, al
though the meeting seemed to con
sider the association and point sys
tem as being subjects outside the
immediate business of reorganiza
tion. Other minor phases of reorgan
ization were dicused, and at the
WHAT!
An Oxford Shirt that won't shrink ?
Yes . . . Arrow Gordon is one oxford shirt that
won't shrink out of fit no matter how many
trips it makes to the laundry.
It's Sanforized-Shrunk that's why. Guaranteed
to hold its one true size or a new shirt Jree!
Add Arrow Gordon to your shirt wardrobe. It's
the smartest looking oxford you can buy. With

give him what they call a "pop
quiz" (unexpected question). They
might ask "Do you want to buy a
duck?"
Washington Seminary.
Oiu of Washington Seminary's
favorite expressions, listed by Mar
guerite Hoddey, purports that a
specified person "cannot take it."
If an Atlanta debutante desires to
convince a young man that he Is
wasting his time and hasn't
chance, she simply tells him that
"h3 hasn't got a prayer."
At Emoiw university, "a high
fellow" is a Y. M. C. A. man. A
girl who might aspire to be "The
Sweetheart of Sigma Chi" is des
cribed at Emory as a "neat Job."
A person, object, or occasion which
meets with full approval, is
"mighty prime," while the opposite
is "plenty hitter." All the campus
leaders are "moguls."
At Tech the men still designate
formal dress as "soup and fish" or
"monkey suits," and a dinner coat
is known as a "straight jacket."
"Hit a lick" means to try to gain
a point or two in favor. If you fall
you "nutted" the opportunity. A
"tonsil tennis player" is a sports
man whose talk outranks his game.
The "fickle fingers of fate" are
responsible for all college woes
from flunking to being broke or
losing your "gal."
"Gentlemen of the Tress," at
Tech make Up what they call the
only Democratic G. O. P. club in
history. Architectural students are
"Archies," and textile students are
"lint heads." The academic build
ing is "Epidemic" because of the
many committee meetings held
there.
At Oglethorpe, "which end tip?"
means what is It all about. ' "Oke
duke" means all right, and "darn
tooting," that everything is fine.
"Was I mad?", and "So what?"
are popular also.
At Washington Seminarj, a
"mooner." If a student seems to be
talking too much somebody is sure
to say, "Listen to that girl lip."
"Slumpy" is a twin sister of "not
so good."
conclusion of the meeting, John
Gepson, council president, stated
that further proposals for reor
ganization or improvement may be
submitted to the council at its reg
ular meeting next Wednesday.
