"Wlil you please remind the
students In all of your classes
of the fact that the university
regents have issued an order in
regard to smoking which reads
as follows: 'Smoking Is prohibi
ted in the halls, classrooms,
and student laboratories of
University buildings.'
"I hope that our students, as
law-abiding citizens, will com

this order and refrain from
smoking in the places indicated.
However, I am pleased to say
that the young men of the col

"Please support this letter as
strongly as your conscience
may permit, so that the halls

trouble for the janitors, and
make a bad impression on visi
tors." J. E. LeRossignol."

BANQUET FOR AG MEN
STUDENT UNION DRIVE
RENEWED BY COUNCIL
Governing Body Asks Cooperation of Alumni and
Students in Campaign to Secure for University
The Much Needed Building.
Student council efforts to obtain, a union building will bo
renewed today when Council President Irving Hill appoints a
committee to resume the drive begun last spring. Announce
ment of committee members will be made at the council meeting
at 5 o'clock today in university hall.
The new drive is to consist of O
three phases which campus leaders
hope will lead to final realization
of the project which has long been
a dream of campus governing
bodies.
The plan includes:
1. A new drive to rally alumni
support in cooperation with the
alumni association in an effort to
get definite assurance that Ne
braska alumni are willing to help
make the building a possibility.
2. Establishment of a student
union fund to which campus or
ganizations will be asked to con
triDute. In this way the council
hopes to get concrete evidence
from student groups that they are
definitely behind the proposal.
3. Investigation of possibilities
of future federal funds. The un
employment relief program will
not end this year and it may be
possible to obtain a loan next
year.
Campus leaders appeared great
ly encouraged following recent
conversations with the Board of
Regents. It was reported that uni
versity authorities were again con
sidering the project following al
most complete rejection of the plan
this spring.
"Principle objection to the plan,
was that it was not in tangible
enough form," stated Hill. "The
council hopes to be of continual
assistance to the committee by di
recting the campaign."

Hayes Beall Will Speak at
Meeting at First -
Baptist.
STUDENTS PARTICIPATE
Demonstration of the vouth of
Lincoln for the cause of peace will
consist of armistice services at the
First Baptist church, 14th and K
Street at 8 o'clock, Sunday eve
ning, Nov. 10, it was announced
Tuesday by Grant McClellan, Y.
M. C. A. member in charge. The
speaker of the evening, a youth
himself, is Hayes Beall, president
of the National Council of Meth
odist Youth, coming here from the
Chicago office. He is a graduate
of the Yale school of divinity, and
was chairman last year of the
committee which sponsored the
youth strike against war.
University students representing
various organizations are cooperat
ing in sponsoring this meeting.
The student peace action commit
tee will be represented by Lilette
Jacques and Edwin Getscher; Y.
M. C. A., by McClellan; Y. W. C.
A-, by Gladys Klopp and Jane
Keefer, the latter chairman of in
ternational relations staff of the
International Relations club. All
other university students are urged
to come.
Young people's societies of the
various churches are cooperating,
and other adults groups in the city
of Lincoln are sponsoring the
meeting. Members of the Lincoln
Peace Council have actively par
ticipated in arrangements for the
meeting, and the Council itself is
sponsoring the rally. One of the
chief points of discussion Sunday
night will be the impending Nye
Kvale bill now before the national
congress. This is a proposed
amendment to section 40 of the
National Defense Act introduced
In the senate and the house on
July 24 last by Senator Nye and
Congressman Kvale. which if and
when enacted into law will "limit
its application (The Defense Act's i
in the case of civil educational in
stitutions to those offering elec
tive courses in military training."
This purpose the Nye-KvaJe
amendment would accomplish by
insetting a phrase at the appro
priate place in the present law
providing that no R. O. T. C. unit
shall be established or maintained
at any webo or college "until such
institution shall have satisfied the
Secretary of War that enrollment
in such unit (except in the case of
essentially military schools! is
elective and not compulsory."

Forty-five replies from the sixty
inquiries made have been received
by Operating Superintendent L. F.

Plan Submitted.
Action was taken by the ad
ministration last month when a
Student Council committee ap
peared before the university re
gents in special meeting. They de
scribed an operating plan which
embodied tie most successful
points of those systems in opera
tion at other colleges, which was
compiled from a similar survey
conducted by the Council.
According to this system, the
bookstore would purchase texts
from students for 65 percent of
their original cost, and resell them
at 75 percent. Forty per cent
would be offered for texts no
longer in use, and a special com
mittee would approve all textbook
changes proposed by instructors.

; arrangement of it between halves

Popularly selected by the stu

three songs, the new number, writ
ten by Mrs. Marjorie Hornberger,
received a cash prize offered by
the Innocents and Mortar Boards
societies.
Due to the time involved in
making complete ' arrangements
for the band, only the chorus will
be played at the Kansas game.
Since the words to the chorus are
brief, all students were urged to
have them memorized for the
game by Marsh.
Formal introduction of the new
song will be delayed until the
band's winter concert in Febru

ment will be presented. The Tas

BIG SIX CONVENTION
Miss Peterson Distributes
Bids to Kansas City
Council Meet.
Letters will be sent out today
inviting representatives from
schools in the Eig Six conference to
convene at Kansas City in Decem
ber at the time of the national con
vention, it was announced by
Marylu Petersen, Big Six commit
tee chairman Tuesday.
Original plans for a council Big
Six meeting were abandoned fol
lowing answers lrom schools indi
cating that they could not afford
to send representatives to two con
ferences and were planning to at
tend the national convention t
Kansas City. It was then decided
that midwestern schols should dis
cuss their particular problems at
the same time that schools from
all over the country were conven
ing. The purpobe of such a gathering
is so that schools having the same
type of problems can discuss them
and perhaps get new ideas.
Dsvcboloiry and measurement".
points out that while the tc-rti
may not absolutely indicate Uio
individual's intelligence, the re
sults nevertheless do give proof of
the student's ability to digest ani
understand what he read.
Two Factors.
"A poor score," says Dr. Corey,
"means the student has a rather
poor chance to succeed at any
work which requires much read
ing. This inability is due to two
factots. Either the individral has
below average intelligence or be
has suffered from inferior grade
school training."
