From Activities
Until October 1
o-
Inaugurating an extensive new
jilan for freshmen activities, the
Inter-organization council, sub
committee of Mortar Board, an
nounces a series of resolutions,
and stresses the fact that fresh
mer. will not be allowed to enter
any activity except the Daily Ne
braskan before the All Activities
tea. Oct. 1. In previous years
freshmen ha-e been allowed to be
gin their extra-curricular life as
soon as classes are resumed.
Acting on the knowledge that
freshmen have been overburdened,
and that there Is definite need for
limiting their activities in some
way, the Inter-organization coun
cil, composed of leaders in all
major women's organizations, an
nounced a number of resolutions
which it hopes will reecive the
full cooperation of women's
groups on the campus. These re
solutions have been heartily en
dorsed by the dean of women,
Mortar Board,' Inter-organization
Council, and all major women's
organizations.
Following are the resolutions
adopted:
1. No freshman activity, ex
cept the Daily Nebraskan, shall
begin until the All-Activities tea,
Oct. 1. At this time freshmen
will have their first opportunity
for investigating different ac
tivities. 2. Coed counselors and Daily
Nebraskan to be the only groups
functioning from Sept. 14 to
Oct, 1. Coed Counselors will .
function only socially, in such
a way that big and little sisters
may become acquainted and new
girls adjusted to campus IJfe.
3. We ask that no activity
points be given until after All
Activities tea, Oct. 1.
4. During a 20 day "experi
mentation period," from Oct. 2 to
21, work in activities may be
started. Freshmen will be limited
to three meetings a week, one
which may be in the evening.
This includes social functions
occurring during the week, such
as teas and parties. During this
period we rely on all organized
groups to see that freshmen be
kept within the limitation.
5. Freshmen may choose two
activities In which they wish to
continue work between Oct. 21
and 23. From this time on the
Inter-organization council will
check to see that no freshman
participates in more than two
activities. Between Oct. 21 and
23 each organization must have
rooms and facilities available in
Ellen Smith hall for freshmen
to sign up. Freshmen activities
will get into full swing Monday,
Oct. 26.
7. Coed Counselors to concede
all sports groups to W. A. A.
8. During the Y. W. C. A.
finance drive, freshman Y. W.
activities will not function.

FRENCH LIBRARY
TRANSFERRED TO
LARGER SHELVES
Due to the expansion of
the French library last fall,
it will be moved to the room
previously used as an office
by the women teachers of
the French department.
The French library has re
cently received 800 French
classics from a Nebraska
graduate, Ralph S. Mueller,
of Cleveland, Ohio. These
books have been the property
of John C .Ariles who had in
herited them from his French
grandmother, Rcsa Lebiance.
They were printed 70 to 80
years ago but are in good
condition. These books are
complete sets of French
classics, by famous French
authors.
UNCLE BILL READS RIOT
ACT TO ROOSEVELTIANS
Murray Upholds Beliefs of States Right, Supreme
Court, Balanced Budget. Constitution
In Spectacular Address.
By Bob Griffin.
"Alfalfa Bill Murray", came to
town yesterday to preach his
adopted species of Americanism.
Baiting the new deal with homely
anecdotes drawled thru a handle
bar mustache into a lapel micro
phone, the former democratic gov
ernor of Oklahoma told his shiver
ing audience that Rooseveltian
prodigality is putting skids under
Hamiltonian theories (John's or
Alexander's) and catapulting the
country down the rosy road to
ruin.
"When it thunders and light
nings down on the Oklahoma
ranches," "Uncle Bill" jocularly
rambled, "the cowhands ride thru
the frightened herd crooning lul
labys. We have a president that
does that over the radio, and the
trouble with you people is that
you listen to the first crooner that
comes along."
States rights, the constitution,
a balanced budget, and the su
preme court drew obeisance from
the sage of the Lucerne Fields,
punctuated only by scattered
huzzas from the immediate audi
ence and a lady's cries of "Let Me
Go!" from an adjoining Antelope
Pack ravine, which drew the im-1

Member of National Rules
Committee Explains
Revisions.
Reporting on the football rule
changes for 1936 in the September
issue of the Nebraska High School
Activities Bulletin Coach D. X.
Bible, a member of the National
Rules Committee, announces a
number of changes and -clarifications
to be in force this fall.
Among the important revisions
are the following:
1. The Supplemental Note un
der Rule 7, Setcion 7, which re
sulted in the so-called "slow
whistle" has been erased. Here
tofore a player on his feet in
the grasp of a tackier was al
lowed to run, pass, or kick un
til the whistle was blown. In the
future with the refree blowing
his whistle more quickly, the re
sult of injury will be minimized.
The rule which specifies when
the ball becomes dead will again
govern as in 1934. The sounding
of the whistle will be regarded
simply as an announcement by
the referee that he has judged
the ball dead and play must
cease.
2. A ball kicked from scrim
mage which ddes not cross the
line of scrimmage can be re
covered and advanced by either
team. For several years it has

TO PAPER'S SERVICES
Nebraskan Joins National
Chain for New
Facility.
Addition of a national college
photo service to the feature
sources of the Daily Nebraskan
was announced today by Robert
Funk, business manager of the
paper. Timely photographs to be
run in the daily editions will be
secured from all major campuses
for the service.
This addition is separate, Funk
emphasized, from the Collegiate
Digest rotogravure section which
will appear every Sunday, pro
vided the subscription drive now
under way is successful. Change
in the Sunday edition will include
enlarging that issue to sixteen
pages according to present plans.
The new photo service, which
includes news story coverage as
well, will also serve as a publicity
source for the university. The
Nebraskan has agreed to co-operate
in furnishing pictures of local
events to be distributed the nation-wide
chain of members.
"The Nebraskan will probably
possess more news and feature
service of primarily collegiate in
terest than any other campus pub
lication in the country," Funk de
clared. "This all depends, how
ever, on the results of our cir
culation building campaign. The
subscription price of a dollar
ridiculously low for a daily paper
is the basis for our hopes that
enough students will subscribe to
make it possible for the Nebraskan
to have every facility available
for the reader's enjoyment."
Papers will be available to sub
scribers at the regular booth in
Social Sciences hall starting this
morning. Students wishing to
subscribe may secure their card
either in the Daily Nebraskan of
fice or the booth in the north end
of Social Sciences hall, or in Ag
ricultural hall on Ag campus.

CHEMISTRY HALL
NAMED TO HONOR
LATE DR. AVERY
Although no new struc
tures have been built on the
campus this summer, there
is at least in name, a new
building. Dedicated to the
memory of Dr. Samuel Ave
ry, former chancellor and
chemistry professor, chemis
try hall has been renamed
the "Avery Laboratory of
Chemistry."
Chancellor emeritus Avery,
who died last January 25,
served as chancellor of the
university from 1908 until
1927 when he was forced to
resign because of ill health.
He continued, however, to
serve in the chemistry de
partment where he had
taught from 1895 to 1908,
and he remained in the re
search division until his
death.

CLASSES START
AFTER TWO DAYS
OF REGISTRATION
Figures Indicate Possible
Increased Enrollment
Over Last Year.
After two days of intense ac
tivity at the principal registration
centers in the coliseum and on the
third floor of social science, up
wards of 5,000 students were ready
to begin fall classes this morning.
Altho no official figure is yet
available on the number of stu
dents registered, all indications
point to a heavy enrollment for the
current semester.
University authorities, tho un
able to make statistical compari
sons on the alacrity with which
this year's registration was ac
complished, have expressed the
opinion that the complex process
was run off this year with dis
patch and without congestion.
Outstanding improvement over
former years was the new plan
initiated for giving medical exam
inations. A ten day period preced
ing the two regular registration
days was designated for giving
this service to incoming students.
Dr. R. A. Lyman reports that
from the standpoint of the stu
dent health staff the new plan
was a decided success.
Miss Florence I. McGahey,
registrar, reports that the officials
in charge of both the coliseum
where freshmen and new students
were being taken care of and those

E
Guidance Not Grading Should
Be Objective of Exams,
States Hendricks.
The decrease in a student's lab
oratory breakage expense for the
second semester as compared with
the first is believed by Dr. B. Clif
ford Hendricks of the chemistry
faculty of the University of Ne
braska, to bear. a. close relation . to,
the student's improved manipula
tion of apparatus, thus suggesting
that examinations may not always
be necessary to guage progress.
In a paper prepared by Dr.
Hendricks and F. P. Frutchey of
Ohio State university and pre
sented by them before the meet
ings of the division of chemical
education of the American Chem
ical Society at Pittsburgh, Pa.,
Friday, the authors point out that
an attempt is being made over a
ten year period ending in 1941 to
create better examinations for
chemistry faculties.
"Teachers are too often moti
vated to give tests in order to set
up grades and determine credit,"
says the Nebraska educator. "We
believe that guidance should be
the major objective of examina
tions. It is considered that the
ability of a student to leave un
answered those parts of an exam
ination which are beyond his un
derstanding is an indirect index of
his progress toward a sense of
what he doesn't know vs. what he
does know."

FOR NEJ3RM RELIEF
Allotments for Student Aid
Renewed at University
This Semester.
Nebraska's share of the $19,
606,767 allotted by the NYA for
student aid and work projects
during the coming year amounts
to $240,792. The monthly earnings
remain unchanged, with the $6
maximum set for high schools, $15
for college undergraduates, and
$25 for graduates still remaining
official.
Deputy Executive Director Rich
ard Brown announced that $1,118,
494 of the grand total is ear
marked especially for drouth re
lief to be distributed among 20
southern and middle western
states, one of which is Nebraska.
The funds are to be used ex
clusively for increasing the quotas
of young people to receive student
aid during the ensuing school
year.
Additional emergency allotments
for work project employment in
the drouth states, including Ne
braska, are also expected to be
made, Director Brown said, but
quotas have yet to be worked !
out. I
State Gets $102,388.
Nebraska's student aid allot
ment is $102,388, which is for a
three month period only. State
youth directors have been in
formed that it will be permissible
to shift emergency funds from the
school aid to the college and
graduate aid and vice versa. Ne
braska's drouth relief allotment is
! $51,194, which may be increased
from 10 to 60 percent according to
the need and the youth population
of Nebraska. The regular allot
ment for work projects, totalling
587,210, brings the total allotment
for Nebraska to $240,792.
The program this year will
largely duplicate that of former
years with school and college of
ficials exercising complete control
over selection of applicants and
supervising the work they per
form. Current allotments are for a
three month period only and have
been made in sufficient time to ac
commodate student aid applicants.
Prevention of educational oppor
tunities because of drouth will be
overcome, due to the aforesaid
10 to 60 percent allotment in
crease. The special quotas for the
drouth area were determined after
a series of conferences by Mr.
Brown with youth directors and
educators in the affected states
during August, thus no delay will
be experienced in giving the
students assistance, as was ex
perienced last year.
