In l he A i stares that staged jren eral" el. t'uiiis. ;i distinct upsurge in republican slock unseated ilciuocrnl ic incumbents and left the putters llial bo wondering just what hap poneil. What did happen? Although election re turns arc not v. lud ly completed as yet, the re vival of republican strength must be viewed as a distiin i trend against the new deal. Votes east for republicans were votes east against democrats, and especially against democrats who have been openly approved by the new deal leaders. Democrats, oar-marked for ''purging,'' came through in good shape. Nationally, the off-year election is fairly bursting with political importance during the next two years. 1he presidential election oi' I'.J-kl and the 1'.'12 balloting. But of more in terest and im port a nop to Xebraskans is the Cornhusker slate election. The goeruir was narrowly re-elected for a third term against a surprisingly strong re publican candidate and a surprisingly weak in dependent candidate. Four executive state of ficials, democratic incumbents, lost to republic ans. The mail vote must decide the outcome of1he First district congressional race, so close h;j.s been the balloting. The county courthouses, grassroot genesis ainl backbone of a political party, have been taken over by the republicans which is a fur ther indication of Hip resurrection of the "grand old party,'.' after a six year domination by ihe democrats. The democratic regime dat ing back to l!t:i2 appears to be the very un doing of the party, since each year has fostered more and wider splits in the organization. Aside from the battle of the '"ins" and "outs,"' constitutional amendments proved to be an interesting aspect of the election. To) interest belongs to the widely publicized and ridiculed ham and eggs" pension scrip plan of California. '-.iO Every Thursday" lost, for Innately enough for the C'alifornians. Ouri oudy, ti e senatorial candidate who espoused the "cr.ickpot " plan was swept into the 1 S. Senate on the strength of the proposed scheme. Xebraskans, by a three to one vote, sty mied tlx- proposed slot machine amendment which would legalize the "one-armed bandits" as a revenue source for old-age assistance. An analysis of the votes cast "for" this amend ment would bring 1o light some of the angles 1 hat make elections the interesting pnblic af fairs they have grown to be. Fearful of giving the iroveruor added power and of surrendering their suffrage ef fectiveness. Nebraska voters turned down the short ballot amendment. Perhaps the elector ate wil regret its rejeclion of this progressive proposal when the next primary election rolls around and the long list of "name candidates" aqa '.n dnz.les the voters' eyes. Three Johnsons and two Swansons voted into state offices Tin-.day illuslrate the need for a revamping of th sta'e primary laws. "What's in a name:" Plenty! New Legal Holiday Last May, the Congress of the I'nited States adopted a resolution making November 11 Armistice Day a legal holiday, just as the Fourth of July, Thanksgiving. Lincoln's Birth day and other days are legally adopted holi days. The University Senate several weeks ago was confronted with this new holiday. The au thorities, who had drawn up the University cal endar before the Armistice Day holiday enact ment, presented the matter to the University Senate. The Senate took no action. Therefore, the University of Nebraska let go the first offi cial observation of Armistice Day, Classes go on as usual as dictated by the University cal endar. It is regrettable that Congress could not have passed the measure with more respect for 1 be University calendar. Jf the members of the Senate and House of Representatives had known that the University's officials had an iron-clad school calendar by which to set stu dent activities, they surely would have done their legislating at a more opportune lime. Es pecially since the University is a separate con stituency. From the student viewpoint, this Armistice Day means much more than getting out of classes for a day. The new legal holiday rises in national, and even international, significance in the light of what has transpired since Armis tice Day. WIS. What has happened in Europe since Nebraska's school year started this fall is enough to convince even the most skeptical person that Armistice Day, ID:;?, is a grim re minder of what happened a score of years ago. Armistice Day, 19:38, is one day thr.t should be devoted to a somber reflection of the peace-or-war quest ion that is being loaded upon the shoulders of those who were mere infants when the World Mar came to a close. How Armis tice Day can be appropriately honored by the student body after a pep rally for Saturday's I itt-JiUsker game is beyond comprehension.

This week's Oornhusker-Pitt grid battle along with the huge pre-game rally, will receive con siderable play up in the 39 edi tion of the Cornhusker, according to Fred Stiner, managing editor of the yearbook. Elaborate plans for unusual photography and candid photos have been made by the staff photographers. Bill Buchanan will be on the sidelines covering the game by camera as he has done at all pre vious games both at Lincoln and away. Bob Hunt will make a series of flash photos and candid shots at the rally. Friday night. These photos, accompanied by a suitable account of the rally and the game will highlight this year's sport section of the annual. Pictures of all of the homecom ing decorations were taken and have been developed. Present plans indicate that the majority of the pictures will be used in the fraternity-sorority section. Cover Contract Let. The contract for the cover of the annual was awarded to the S. K. Smith company of Chicago. This cover will be of cloth fabric type with a small Nebraska em blem on the front. As usual, it wiU be padded with dimensions meas uring 9x12 inches. The staff is taking steps to set a new trend in covers this year. In order that all Cornhuskei-3 might appear uniform when placed side by side on shelves, there will be no change made in the back-bone cover of the annual. Last year's edition was unusual in the simplicity found on this background cover and Pat Lahr, editor feels that a continuation of the design used will add much to future annuals. Considerable delay on the part of members of the junior ami senior classes as well as fraternity and sorority members, has caused this year's working- schedule to fall far behind that of last year. Nu merous announcements concerning the sittings for these photographs have been made but seemingly to no avail. Picture Statistics. Statistics on the number of pic tures taken up to yesterday aa compared with the number taken up to the same date last year aie as follows: Seniors, last year 139, this year 135; Juniors, last year 115, this year SO; fratern ities, last year 278. this year 178: sororities, last year 359, this year 353. Special attention should be given to the fraternity section for the number of sittings this year is a hundred less than that of last year. Said Miss Lahr, students who TO GET MALE MAIL.,. Is It a Race j to Intellectual Oblivion? i "What has become of German literature?" The English Journal thus poses a compelling question. And W. B. Huebsch, who is Euro pean scout for the Viking Press, gives a comprehensive answer which carries no little significance. Look backward for a moment to the authors of the twenties. In that post-war period a new, creative Spirit was released in Germany a spirit that promised great things. It was a renaissance which had world repercussions and world ap plause. There were such well-known thinkers as Physicist Albert Ein stein, Novelist Heinrich Mann, Psychologist Sigmund Freud, Phil osopher Thomas Mann, Biograph ers Stefan Swcig and Emil Lud wig. There was the "Forty Days of Musa Dagh'' of Franz Werfcl and the "All's Quiet on the West ern Front" of E. M. Remarque. Here were indications of civilized thought -struggling, but certainly coherent. Then Hitler to k power "and the blight that fell on the arts in Ger many was as instantaneous as the operation of a cyclone." Today "it is worth a citizen's head to possess a book" by one of these men. The chief "literary" diet of cul tured Germans is now "Mcin Kampf." together with "Gocbbel's this" or "Coding's that." It isn't easy to picture a former reader of Einstein or of Emil Ludwig bend ing eagerly over the racial blub- herings of Housepainter Hitler, but such must be the case. In despera tion, reputable German publishers are turning- to travel hooks and luvenile stories, mostly resur rected from prewar authors all politically harmless. Thus does the blinder-system work. Nazi Germany has no great literature because it permits no great thinkers. All those men who made such a proud record for their country in only 15 years- all are exiles. They are still writ ing, but Germany has lost them. And Hitler continues to prate of a greater German rare How can there be any progress or any achievement of any kind racially or otherwise when minds of loveliness will inject new life in England's Siberia. The truly lovely woman will continue to make life beautiful whether she lives on a desert is land or in the center of highest social circles. On the other hand, the good queen will find that her popularity will not increase with the expulsion of her rival. sne is not fulfilling her mission because she is not making others' lives more livable. Just as another Elizabeth rea lized no gain when she persecuted a beautiful foreigner, Mary, queen of Scots, today's Elizabeth will find similar returns. Oregon State. 'Muddle Parking' If you pass down Troytown way, any morning, any day, you'll find them all doing something that Is sweeping the campus an as-yet-unnamed craze which could be de scriptively titled "Muddle Park ing." It is done on the university 3 parking lots, and requires little experience. You, too, can be a top notch muddle parker with just a few lessons. Prerequisites are selfishness, thoughtlessness, and lack of con science. If he possess there quali ties, the average Trojan may feel safe in embarking on his muddle parking career. Here's how it's done The muddle parker arrives on campus from five to seven min utes late for his 8 o'clock, and at varied intervals from then on. He roars hurriedly into the lot, bounces merrily on his vehicle's axle as it hits the bumps, and turns off the ignition. Where the car stops, it stays that is the inviolate rule of muddle parking. Its position usually blocks the exit of one or two other cars, but ex perts have been known to trap as many as seven on good days. When time comes for lunch and those who parked correctly at tempt to leave, they find compli cations facing them. Since the muddle parker is usually the type of fellow who spends 15 or 20 minutes after his class taking part in lengthy chats, the other driv ers are stymied and forced either to wait or waste gas, good hu- (Froro. the Dally Trojan, University of Southern California ) Fraternity Writes '.

The Oklahoma university dean of men can favor student mar riages if he likes, but collegians who marry probably won't get their parents' blessing, Mrs. J, r. Hinshaw, state president of the Oklahoma Mothers' association declares. Dean Fandlay advanced a plan approving matrimony ft. nanced by students' families, but Mrs. Hinshaw asserts that there aren't parents of three dozen Okla homans who would want to take on the expense of another person. A Recipe for Life. Dr. Rollo Walter Brown, novel ist and essayist, offered a three point recipe for life to University of Oregon students: 1. Keep your eyes open as op posed to the freshman daze. 2. Approach life as though it had an end as well as a beginning. 3. Do things you will want to remember. mor. an,l a ppnprnns sunnlv nf are clapped between earmuffs and fent,cr paint in an pffort t0 free u.mucisi race winci suppresses themselves all of its own literature and all of its own thinkers is not moving toward glory but toward death.

Some per sons even college students are naturally selfish, thoughtless, and lacking in conscience. But why these traits cannot be controlled is not so easy to fathom. Members of some of the numer ous campus service organizations, staAioned at the lots, could insure correct parking. Their task would be simply to force a few non conformists into line. Until some thing of this nature is done, the muddle parkers will continue to make life unpleasant for those who are able to do the right thing without policing. C. I. H.

Just what was the basis of se lection of the winner in this con test? It must have been the Donu I larlty of the name, not the merit i of one Individual name. Can the fact that forty persons consci ously or unconsciously sub mltted the name of "Corn Crib" be Indicative of the student body's desires? We feel that the judging committee might have been influ enced by the fact that forty per sons did select this name and that they might not have stopped to discover the intimations involved We wonder if they gave the other names due consideration. It would probably be of no value to a:k for a reconsideration of the other names sumbitted.
