Union plea to the student council to members on their choose board ability to exercise the duties of the governing organization and not to elect the board for purely political reasons regardless of the interest and ability of its mem bers. Following the election a motion was passed to recommend to the council of next year that it in vestigate the probability of start ing a student activities file. This file would be placed in the Union and students and faculty mem bers would have free acess to its use. The plan if adopted would facilitate investigation of the ac tivities of all students, and would permit the Student Council to check the eligibility of persons running for an office under the new point system. This plan has been adopted on almost every other campus and is considered a forward step in the organization of activities. Hampden-Sydney College was founded six months before the Declaration of Independence was signed. In 193G there were 1,015,000 liv ing graduates of all U. S. higher educational instiuttions.

Busline would shift part of the burden of the fares to a general fund. De tails of these arrangements he could not allow to be made public. Reading thru the editorial for the first time, Heiny came to the query asking him if he'd ever worked his way thru college. "Sure!" he said, banging down his fist and making the dishes on his dinner table rock. "Sure I've worked my way thru college, and I understand the students' prob lems." He blamed the transportation problem originally on the place ment of the two campuses so far apart, and added that this mis take should not oblige the stu dents to paj high bus rates. "But on the other hand, it is not up to the Traction company to make up for this mistake." He pointed out that all the bus lines in the city must be made to pay something, and that much as he would like to aid students, he cannot carry mem at a loss. 11c 1 Jl. a . 1 T scoffed at the idea of a university operated busline which would take all the student business from the Traction company. "They couldn't do it, he said. Heiny's attitude thruout the in terview was that if the company could reduce the rate to 6 2-3 cents and still make money they would do it, but not unless. And that there was no possibility of a 5 cent rate because of the discrim ination element, and that no pres sure could be applied by the uni versity in the absence of a uni versity operated system, which threat, Heiny said, did not exist. ilMMtiTiilil! lilllMiili You can count on a iwoll crowd of oongonltl student (ellow-trtrolftri, of couria.

Moates got a triple and three singles In five times at bat the first day to show the home boys what he could do... he got on base a fifth time on an error... " and would have probably have got a home run on his triple had he been able to run faster... Moates is hampered by a bad knee. . .Nebraska's frosh will meet the varsity in three games after the Oklahoma series... the Sooners play here next Thursday and Friday, and the-frosh-varsity games will be on Saturday, Monday and Tuesday. Nebraska athletics are in midst of a little revival... it seemed to start with a fine showing in the Drake Relays by Bob Simmons and Ed Wib bels...then the track team won an upset victory in last week end's triangular. . .now the baseball team's won four in a row. . .if they beat Okla homa next week end in two games, they'll have a fair chance of finishing in second place.. but beating Oklahoma is a different matter from beating KU and Iowa State. lowans were a little sur prised when someone beat their frosh javelin ace, Tom Chap man... they probably didn't know the HuskerV star frosh javelin thrower, Herb Gote, is state record holder, and has bettered the Big Six record in that event already .. .that crack we made aobut Eastern ath letes needing some doctoring, came back in the face... we read where one Ed Burrowes, a Princeton freshman, has done the half mile in 1:51.7... the only mark in the country bet ter than that this year is by Johnny Woodruff of Pitt, who isn't exactly a Californian. . . he's had 1:51.2... all the same, we'll stick to the California boys when the national champion ships roll around.
