KLUB SHOW CAST
STARTS ROUTINE
DAILY PRACTICES
Iverson, Ireland in Charge
Of Bringing Show Into
Shape by April 20.
As rehearsals for both the cast
and pony chorus gain momentum
in preparation for "Southern Ex
posure," Kosmet Klub's spring
show, practices are being held
nightly and will continue so on
out until the time of presentation,
April 20 to 24. Joe Iverson, for
mer Klub member, is directing the
cast and double quartet, while Dr.
Ralph Ireland, likewise a Kosmet
alumnus, has charge of bringing
the pony chorus into shape.
The s'tory, written by Chauncey
Barney, law freshman, is laid in
the south, as the title suggests,
and revolves around a horse race
and an inheritance. Larry, played
by Don Bochm, is a college lad
who inherits a southern plantation,
but little money to keep it up.
Paschal Stone is Larry's fiancee,
acting under the name of Carolyn,
and wants to sell the plantation
and move to New York.
Bill Strong Is Heroine,
The purchaser to be is rich Aunt
Matilda Thorndyke, played by
Vance Leininger. The heroine of
the play is Bill Strong who will
act the part of Louise. Louise is
a neighbor girl in love with Larry,
and wants him to keep the old
family property. Colonel Horatio
Q. Winterby, alias Irving Hill,
sides with Louise.
It seems that it might be possi
ble to keep the southern mansion
if "Southern Exposure," a horse
that is part of Larry's inheritance,
will win a race. But complica
tions set in when Jeppy, the stable
manager, played by Sid Baker,
and Chloe, a southern mammy
plaved by Bill Flax, fall under the
power of Amos B. Kirby, a small
time gambler, which part is taken
by Jacques Shoemaker.
Negro, Sheriff Complete Cast.
Bill Marsh handles the character
of Toonia, a Negro maid, and Bob
Martz, playing the sheriff, com
pletes the cast.
At a meeting of Kosmet Klub,
held yesterday, committee chair
men reported on their progress,
and Bob Shellenberg, Klub mem
ber, was made chairman of ad
vertising committee as well as
continuing in charge of properties.

On Crouiuls of Ineligibility ; Staff Members
Express Disappointment.
Ton thousand students and not a

ambituously stated all rules and
regulations for it's April Fools day
liars contest. In this constitution
of rules and regulations the fol

3. No member of the Daily Nenraskan
staff or his family is rlifMhle for competi

of this publication went to press,
ardent contest promoters dug into
their entry box and found to their
dismay and disappointment that
but one story had been submitted.
Still insistent that their contest
must be a success and determined
that if there be but one liar on the
campus he must necessarily be the
biggest, the staff promoters pro
ceeded to judge the lone entry.
For certain reasons which the
censors made rather emphatic at

With Students.
With annrnrimatelv 500 ae stU

ers' Fair rally was held on the ag
campus Tuesday evening in an en
deavor to arouse enthusiasm for
the annua! event.
Prof. H. J. Gramlich of the ani
mal husbandry department spoke
to the students and declared the
faculty on the campus was willing
to co-operate with the student
body in making the fair most suc
cessful. A skit in the form of an ama
teur hour, planned by the Junior
Fair board, proved to be a hilari
ous takeoff on the Senior Fair
board. The senior members were
given an opportunity to try out
for leading parts in a pageant,
and the well-known bell of all
amateur programs greeted them
thruout the skit.
A number of songs and yells
were heard, being led by Ogden
Riddle and Raymona Hilton. Fair
board members in charge declared
the rally to be a great success with
the student members showing a

Miss Tcwnsend win spend tne

vote his entire time to study.
lish the tale and because a liar in
vestigation proved that the con
tributor was among the few inelig
ibles his name may hardly be pub
lished. Whether the fact that the staff
members were declared ineligible,
that Awgwan Editor Cass and his
henchmen were too busy hunting
for their usual run of humor in or
that the wouldbe legalists of the
campus were taken up with a
practice trial might account for the
fact that only one unprintable and
illegitimate contribution found Its
way to the office.
For the most part it might seem
that the Nebraskan should hang
its head in shame for even so much
as implying that there should be
enough aspiring "Munchausens" on
the campus to make an interesting
contest.
The question of the hour at the
present is "What shall we do with
this fifteen dollar award we bought
for first prize?" The equally criti
cal reply comes back "Take it
back; it isn't paid for anyway."

Executives Address Letter
To Senate's Committee
On Orientation.
Askinir student representation
on the university senate's fresh
man day committee, stuaent ex
ecutives in five colleges, meeting
to discuss creation of an adminis
trative class council, completed
their first and unofficial action
Tuesday.
After delavine oreanization of
the new group until a definite out
line of their powers is arawn up,
five of the eight attendants at the
meeting, acting in their individual
capacities, paved the way for their
future organization by submitting
a proposal to the faculty commit
tee before its meeting Thursday,
at which it will close the books on
next fall's freshman week plans.
The letter, which asked for stu
dent representation on the plan
ning committee, also suggested
proposals from a student stand
point which would enlarge fresh
man day activities into a functions
for individual colleges which do
not now take part, and would de
crease the tieups and confusion of
registration.
The letter was signed by Ralph
Nollkamper. chairman of the
Bizad Executive Board; Ted
Schroeder, president of the Engi
neer's Executive Board, John.
Clymber, president of the Ag Ex
ecutive Board; and James Marvin,
senior class president representing
Arts and Sciences. Representa
tives from dental, medical, and
pharmacy colleges were not pres
ent, and representatives whose
colleges do not participate at all
in freshman day activities did not
sign the letter.
"The chief question of the meet
ing was decided," declared Mar
vin, "when every college repre
sentative agreed that the classes
would benefit by some plan to or
ganize, and that such a council
as this meeting represented might
go rar in meeting inat neea.
"What project will be under
taken as a means for class organ
ization is undecided: if the stu
dent council, by virtue of their
junior membership could better
participate in freshman day activi
ties, we would gladly relinquish
that for another which is now up
before us."
