Big doings at the UN campus this week, what with the AST coming back, the Junior-Senior Prom being held, and the Mortar Boards doing their usual tearing around. First thing we noticed was a veddy, veddy secret meeting of BWOC freshmen women up in the Innocent s room of the union. Seems that they feel that they are being left out of campus politics (we are glad to hear someone is out of it) and therefore, they have developed a plan to overthrow the leaders in the various activities and take over. L L Afporoill. L L L Circulating among that select group of 15 or so junior codes this week is petition to the Mortar Boards, asking that only five of their number be considered for Mortar Board, due to rationing. The five juniors will be elected by a unanimous vote of the chosen group. The voting will take place to morrow morning at 9 a. m. in U hall, and voters will be admitted only by password, which we hear is "Foiled Again." Big rumors, numbers 849-853: We hear that the Innocent will tackle fifteen this year instead of the usual thirteen that dorm freshmen may stay up until 11:31 for the remainder of the semester that Doro thy Carnahan will grant three o'clocks for slight remuneration that Rae Lock won't tell who is May Queen that the Alpha Chi's have decided to move up on the campus and get in on the deals for a while This Is No Joke Registration for voting in the Nebraska primary election ends tomorrow. It's no joke that approximately two-thirds of the university population which is eligible to vote has neglected to register. Indeed, the process of registration and voting, as well as the date of the election itself, is a mys tery to most of those who could avail them selves of the privilege. Most of them don't care.

Read 'em and weep. Read the stories all the way through, every inch of them, and sit down for a good cry. They're the figment of the collective imaginations of a slightly de mented Nebraskan staff. Like the brick under the top hat. the string on the billfold, and other April Fool eries, this issue of the Nebraskan has a catch to it. Perhaps we've carried this thing a bit too far! Anticipation of the rumors we are about to spread worries us a little, but only a little. " If readers inspect each story with utmost care, they will discover a note of seriousness beneath the railery. We label it "wishful thinking" a reflection of the wishes of the UN population. Perhaps it will give impetus to atempt to institute some changes. If not, read it and weep. they have no interest in local elections, but insist that they would not miss the Novem ber ballot. They are beginning young. They are starting with the attitude that their votes will not improve local government, from whence come the politicians of ,the state and the nation. If every eligible voter marked a ballot in the primaries for the man he considered best at the post, the movement begun in local elections would push forward to national politics. The improvement would be marked, and welcome. YOUR UNIVERSITY By Janet Mason. University officials announced the new plans for the university in the future, today. Probably one of the most im portant proposed developments is that of an honor system for final examinations. Beginning next year students will be asked to take the responsibility of reporting cheat ing during examinations them selves. This will make it possible for professors and proctors to be absent when tests' are given, with out fear of receiving illegitimate papers. Other new plans for the uni versity are in the form of im provements and additions to the buildings. Due to the number of A J BUT VJt ARE NOT! We're not Fooled by any kind of cleaning job! casualties expected after the war, elevators will be installed in all buildings, and escalators, wherever possible. The first new building to be constructed will be a university theater. This will be built on the location where Ellen Smith now stands. The houses west of Ellen Smith are to be torn down and the new building will extend for a half-block, with the entrance on 14th. Build Dance Hall. To satisfy student complaints over a lack of places to go in Lincoln, the university will erect a new dance hall on the parade grounds between Andrews and Teachers. Professors will be em ployed to serve 3.2 beer and mixed drinks during their free hours. If possible an orchestra will be en gaged permanently to pmy at night and the proverbial juke box will provide music during the day. To go into effect next fall, will be the new rules on hours for so rority and dormitory women. On week nights, women will be al lowed to stay out until 11:30, with 1:30 the limit on Friday and Sat urday. Three 2:30 nights a semes ter will be set. The Student Union will undergo the most drastic change. This will be in the form of an underground concrete room, off the kitchen, to dispose of garbage. Lesser changes in the Union will be showers and shaving equipment to take care of the ATOs when their water and heat is shut off; three extra rooms to be known as "Phi Psi Gulch, Sig Alph Hill and Penn Woods;" and free cokes and brownies to be served in the ballroom day and night during exam weeks. Aside from underground pas sages between buildings, to be opened during disagreeable weather, we are told that many other plans are still in progress. Students with suggestions for fur ther improvements are asked to turn in written statements to El len Smith not later than midnight, March 30.
