A Chance to Listen Tiinfc, and Discuss An International Relations Club meeting is being held this afternoon, the first one this semester, with a former Austrian student, now in the STAR unit on ag campus, as speaker. These lecture and discussion groups are extremely interest ing and informatire for all attending. Foreign relations has always been one of the most fascinating subjects. Its aspects and possibilities are unlimited, and discussion of different noints of view furnish stimulus to further thought on the subject. Post-war planning will be closely akin to our statesmen's ideas on relations between nations. And, as has been pointed out many times, college students will be the leaders of tomor row, the people who in all likelihood will have to enforce the peace and promote friendly attitudes toward all nations and people. The lectures of the International Relations Club are open to all student on the campus and many will wish to attend 4 o clock this afternoon, in the faculty lounge of the student Union. Comment- Lots of praise for the efficient way the school librrary checks out books in the reserve reading room . . . and for Jane Penton, Lois Christie, and Dave Simonson for working doubly hard counting ballots after the election Our congratulations to Col. Murphy, now an admiral in the Nebraska navy . . . and to the teachers for having LiOius Fischer speak first at their convention. . . Rftnnsed oring and an unflattering shake of the head because one man about campus can take only compliments, no criticism . . .. because some profs still grade on the bright red apple system and because some gals surreptitiously step out on their guys who are away off somewhere. . . ' One dozen red roses to the Black Masque chapter, because they apologized when they found they had made a mistake, instead of trying to present excuses and make it worse . . . and also because they've revived the President's Council, which needed reviving a long time ago.

"We are defi nitely sorry that it turned out (the open let ter) as it did. Little needs to be said about it mainly because it was so easy to see that it was written m anger. Butfor one thing, it went in one ear and out the other of all' Greeks who read it and stopped to think of its motives. Many didn't stop to think and were somewhat aroused about the statements both implied and written, and most of them thought the Barbs were a sad group of char acters. The one thing of merit was the proposal about primaries. There even has been added the idea of divorcing Greek and Barb candi dates altogether. Greek run against Greek and Barb against Barb with a fixed represen tation depending upon a party primary held before general election. This idea had imme diate approval of heads of both affiliated fac tions. But unless a different attitude or ap proach is used by the unaffiliates to remedy this situation (and the Greek heads do realize the inequity) the majority of the affiliates on the campus will never accept any proposal re ducing their power. And that will be regard less of how some of us feel. The "attitude" means specifically such editorials as have been appearing recently in the rag-. Probabbly nothing can hinder any move beneficial to the unaffiliates as such policies. For one thing, the cry of "dirty politics" must be dropped. Politics consists of getting as many votes for a can didate as possible organization is the key to such success. Little can compensate when it is lacking. Dirty politics can describe most anything, especially such things as the Pub lications Board situation. Who ever heard of "holdover members" on the Pub Board? Or isn't that dirty politics? . Little can be won by mud slinging for either party can rave all day and all niht. A great deal can be accomplished by sincere and honest attempt in everything that you and the unaffiliates do to help and not hinder your present situation. Bob Henderson. My dear, dear Mr. Henderson: In answer to your inspiring letter, we ask these questions: Whv didn't you stop to think, or are symp toms of wild anger also a part of your usual aDDearance? - .. . . A . Who are all these people reterred to in your letter as "many"! Once upon a time the barbs backed a sys tem of proportional representation in their slate which was definitely turntd down by all faction members at the polls or weren't you around then? Who instituted the cry of "dirty politics"! Aren't the barbs members of the student body of the University of Nebraska even if they don t have any organization, and doesn t law laid down by the Student Council apply to them just as much! What "dirty politics" do you refer to on the pub board? (And just who suggested that the cry of "dirty politics" be dropped?) We've been wondering why no election was held for sophomore and junior pub board members. What sort of approach do you suggest for the barbs! An attitude of passive acceptance of things the way they are! And (pray toll) what kind of a policy would you have the edi- U)SL fijlSMltt...

This is no small job, particularly in war time when advertisers play A hard to get. But Charlotte and i her staff get the ads and the T?a now staff atPAflma with horror when she frequently! , Jf.'f. brings them a make up sheet with ads covering about per cent of the paper. Charlotte, who belongs to Sig ma Delta Tau sororitv. is a iun- ior this year in Arts and Sci- ? ence, majoring in economies. This is her second year as a Tasel and she is also a member of Vestals of the Lamp, a Coi Counselor, and associated with the YWOA. She says she won a prize last year for selling the most University Players tickets, But hamt sold any yet this year.. (Editor's note: She's too busy filling the whole Nt braskan with al vertising!) Charlotte, a medium height, brown eyed, smiling brunette, is one girl who is going to stay in the good and out of the red, and that's for sure ! . i t Ji.- ;: Clippings Pat Chambelim, Cwtor The navy and the marines got together in the Grill Moudav when navynion find Phil Delt brothers LEE Cl'lAPIX and BENNY KOI10UT coked with flying marine Lt.
