Court Will Decide Fate of Nebraskan S 100.000 Libel Suit Well, it won't be long now. The time is drawing near when the fu ture of the Daily Nebraskan. its editors, and even the university itself is to be decided, for the case of Congressman H. Ayre Blower vs. "et al" comes to trial Thurs day. March 28. at 2 oVlook in Prof. Charles B. Nutting's practice court in the law building. The latest move on the part of the opposing parties was made yesterday when Maurice Akin and Howard Gillespie, lawyers for the defense, entered a demurrer on the grounds that the petition of the plaintiff did not state n cause for action. In reply, the court pre emptorily overruled the plea and notified the barristers that they must be prepared to defend their clients when the case comes to trial. The prosecution, represented by Herman Rosenblatt and Don East erday. stated Monday that they are intending to subpoena the twenty-five defendants and six witnesses in order to insure their appearance at the trial. For the sake of those who are still ignorant as to the details of this trial, be It sufficient to say that it is the same mock libel suit which is being conducted by senior law students who are conducting it as a means toward graduation. This case grew out of an alleged libelous article which was pub lished In the Daily Nebraskan, supposedly stating degrading facta about the fictitious Homer Ayre Blower. the distinguished con gressman. Thus far, both the plaintiff and the defense are about even. Loth having made vociferous statement to the effect that there is no doubt in their minds a to which side the decision will rest. It still remains to be seen whether the honorable Mr. Blower is to have a stigma at tached to his name forever or Whether he may walk the streets with his head erect, contented in the fact that Justice haa been done. RUN OR TICKETS upper classes are expected to vole, it was stated. At the same time, women of the senior class will make nominations for Mortar Board membership.
