Pub Board sanctions barb bulletin
50.9 to 49.1 Percent
Because of the long need for
some form of bulletin to keep un
affiliated students posted on barb
activities the Board of Publications
voted Tuesday night to approve an
appropriation of $250 to cover the
cost of publishing such a bulletin
for th first semester.
The bulletin will carry no gen
eral campus news; only news of
particular interest to barbs. No
advertising will be run and each
issue will be distributed free of
charge to all unaffiliated students
on the campus,
Officers choose staff.
The staff will be chosen by barb
officers, subject to the approval of
the board. Blaine Sloan, Barb Un
ion president, has extended an in
vitation to all unaffiliated students
desiring staff positions, instructing
them to make application at the
barb offices in the near future.
At the same time, Norman Har
ris, editor of the Daily Nebraskan,
announced that a barb editor
would be added to the regular staff
of the Daily. Any student with 27
hours of credit is eligible for this
position. Filings must be made
with either Harris or Sloan by
next Friday noon with final selec
tions being made by staff mem
bers and officers of the Barb Un
ion. The barb editorship is, as yet,
an unsalaried position.

kie's 49.1 percent in yesterday's
tabulations. A sample of 5 per
cent of the entire university en
rollment, divided proportionally
among the colleges, was taken.
Arts and sciences college gave
the nod to Roosevelt by 53 percent
against 47 percent for Willkie.
Willkie led Roosevelt 60.1 percent
to 39.9 percent in bizad college.
This fairly safe lead of Willkie's
might indicate that business (at
least among students of business I
is in support of Willkie; a fact
that is pertinent in consideration
of the views on business expressed
by Roosevelt and Willkie Willkie,
pro-business, and Roosevelt, pro
labor. Corresponding to the total out
come of the poll, ag campus split
the vote, 50 percent for Roosevelt
and 50 percent for Willkie. This re
sult is possibly significant in the
fact that Roosevelt did not carry
the majority which moat observers
would expect him to receive among
the farm vote. Roosevelt, in most
circles, is usually thought to be
trong in the rural areas due to his
extensive agricultural relief pro
gram. This tie on ag campus
might be considered a moral vic
tory for Willkie.
Teachers' college supported
Roosevelt 52.8 percent, and gave
47.2 percent of its strength to
Willkie. Engineering colleges pre
sented F. D. R. with 62.5 percent
backing, and gave the remaining
37.5 percent to Willkie. Roosevelt's
policy of extensive engineering and
construction projects may be . a
strong vote puller among this oc
cupational group.
Among the lawyers, Roosevelt
carried 66.5 percent and left 33.5
percent for Wendell Willkie. Due
to the small enrollment in law col

too much significance can be at
tached to these returns.
Men on" the campus favored
Roosevelt with 53.3 percent, and
gave 46.7 percent of their support
to Willkie. Willkie received 53.5
percent of the co-eds' support, and
left 46.5 percent for Roosevelt. The
comparison of results from the two
sexes are almost inversely proportional-women
pro-Willkie, and
men pro-Roosevelt.
Of the 275 students polled only
52 will vote fn the actual election.
Among these voters, Roosevelt will
get 24 votes, and the majority or
