It's your constitution! Study it!
The trial and error period of the temporary Student
Union constitution has come to a close. And in accord
ance with experience gained through the Union's first
three years of operations, the Board of Managers last
week drew up a permanent constitution . for the student
managed building.
The managers acted upon the constitution as rep- .
resentatives of the students who use or would like to
use the building. But to be assured that their decisions
were favorable to those students, ten days were allo
cated during which time the constitution might be
studied and suggestions made to them. Eight of these
ten days remain.
It isn't so important to try to criticize the constitu
tion, as to understand it and to take enough interest in
the building which the students themselves govern to
study its constitution carefully.
Briefly the changes which have been made are:
The membership has been increased from 16 to 17
by the addition of one more student member. This in
crease proved necessary because of the increased work
required of the board.
The tenure of office has been made three years
for sophomores and two years for juniors, in order to
add experience to the membership of the board. Along
the same lines as "the new interfraternity council plan,
students can now grow into the more Important posi
tions and carry out programs that may straddle two
or even three years.
Five standing committees have been created,
namely, executiye, finance, house rules, faculty and ac
tivities. Such a change will thrust more administrative
work onto the students and give them greater opportu
nities to work out their own ideas. Workers groups under
the activities committee are expected to expand the
union program to over 250 separate activities.
The union treasurer Is empowered to collect all
dues and obligations. This provision Is designed to facil
itate the collection of faculty and resident membership
dues, the collection of which has heretofore caused
confusion.
Any expense of maintenance over ordinary ex
penses shall be borne out of union funds. This provision
was necessary to clarify the relation of the building to
the university. When large expenses occurred in the past
there was always a question of whether it should be
billed to the university funds through the regents or to
union account.
The constitution Is posted on the Union bulletin
board. Details of it are important. It is your constitu
tion. If It Is to be a good one, It is your duty to study
It carefully and see that all changes are made to make
the administration of this student managed building
function most smoothly.
Sullsdm,
Clothes make the man-
Lincoln clothing merchants are to be congratulated
for the special efforts they have made In the past three
or four years to dress up university students. From cor
duroy pants and dilapidated sweaters that characterized
the average college man several years ago, the type of
dress has changed to sports coats, neckties and the other
inexpensive fineries that go to make the well dressed man.
More than 200 student salesmen are today em
ployed by these merchants, in fact are putting them
selves through school by this work, and these students,
trained In styles, goods, values, and accessories, have
done much to make the campus mare clothes conscious,
and to help the individual dress more economically.
Of course the store managers are in the business
for money. But because the profit motive prompts them
in much that they do, deserving praise for other cultural
functions should not be denied them. On the whole the
stores make no more t selling stylish merchandise than
any other kind. And the various style shows and dress
contests sponsored by them to aid the student eat deeply
Into their overhead. '
Since It costs no more to wear proper clothes than
unstylish, out of date garments, any Work toward im
proving the college man's dress is to be commended.
Bearing In mind always that this is a poor man's col
lege and that economics must govern dress, hats off
to the merchants for the work they have done.

Vitamin K-
( Continued from Page 1.)
He will be the dinner guest of Dr.
James Mac Woodward, president
of the society, preceding the
lecture.
Although it is little known by
the layman, vitamin K is the fac
tor which prevents hemorrhage by
causing the blood to coagulate
when it escapes the blood vessels.
It was while connecting experi
ments upon the utilization of fat
in newly hatched chicks that the
noted scientist discovered vitamin
K in 1929. One morning he found
several of the chicks dead al
though they had been fed a diet
supposedly adequate in all of the
vitamins then known. Beneath the
down Dr. Dam could feel a net
work of extravasations of blood.
The chicks had died of internal
bleeding, and Investigations
showed that their blood was com
pletely lacking in prothrombin
one of four factors needed for
blood-clotting. By further tests
DrT Dam discovered that hog liver
or alfalfa cured the tendency
toward bleeding caused by a de
ficient diet. Thus the effects of a
new vitamin were discovered.
