FWA Approves
Class Building
For University
A temporary classroom building
is going to be added to the campus
soon, according to an announce
ment from the offices of Senators
Wherry and Butler, because the
University's request for a surplus
army frame type building has
been approved by the Federal
Works Administration.
The new building, which will be
80 feet wide and 100 feet long,
will be constructed from two 40
by 50 feet mess halls now located
at the Sioux City Army Base, as
cording to L. F. Seaton, operating
superintendent.
The temporary classroom build
ing will be located east of the old
Bancroft school structure on Vine
street near 14th street. It will
house four classrooms, one large
lecture hall, and two drawing lab
oratories, all of which will be
used by the College of Engineer
ing, which has insufficient space
to accommodate a record-breaking
enrollment of over 1,500 students
this fall, according to Mr. Seaton.
Mr. Seaton also said that an
application for an additional
building of the same size and type
has been made to the FWA to
house students of electrical en
gineering. The entire cost of dis
mantling, transportation, and re
assembly is borne by the federal
government.

"I now quote from the April 20, J941,
Daily Nebraskan:
' 'Bob Mr.N'utt, I nlon party candidate
from Blzad, was disqualified by the ram
nUttee for violation of the ban on public
ity. The story which formed the basis
of MrMutt's ejection was the Sport Arena
column written without the candidate's
knowledge and neidiicently printed In Fri
day'! Issue of the Dally.

Flagrant Violation.
"Beeanse the violation In yesterday's
election was more flagrant than that ' In
1M1, and because of the precedent set
then, I feel that It Is your duty te bring
this matter to the attention of the ju
ddieiary committee for immediate action.
Sincerely yours. Rodney Franklin, Junior,
Arts and Sciences College."
After reading the letter, Dale
stated that according to the law
laid down by the Council since
the letter was printed, it should
be considered as campaign ma
terial and Novotny should be de
clared ineligible.
Kline Speaks.
V m n
uon luine, speaKing as sup
porter of Novotny, declared
"The opposition is basing its
case on the letter of the law. The
rule was made at a time when
handbills were being passed out
and much campaigning was go
ing on. The law was to put a stop
to this type of thing. They fail to
realize that it is the spirit back
of this rule. It has been a policy
of The Daily Nebraskan staff to
print both sides of the picture in
editorials, letters and columns. We
have an impartial press. The op
position is trying to condemn an
individual for a policy set by the
Nebraskan staff.
Kline further argued that the
terminology of the election rules
read "Either in person or through
his supporters" and contended
that since there were no politicial
parties involved in the election,
Novotny's only declared support
ers were members of Beta Theat
Pi.
"Johnson, who wrote the letter,
was an impartial individual and
his letter was printed by the Ne
braskan in accordance with its
principle of the free press;" he
concluded.
After the representatives of the
two candidates had presented
their sides, the meeting was
opened to further discussion.
Jim Van Landingham, present in
behalf of Devote, made a state-
Classified
ment concerning campaigning in
student elections.
Open Campaigning.
"They say that the university is
the cradle of democracy but yet
mey say we can't have campaicn
ing of any sort in elections. Since
that is the way state and national
elections are run, why can't we,
as students, be allowed to conduct
political campaigns of our own?"
expressing the policy of The
Daily Nebraskan this fall, Phyllis
Teagarden, editor, stated that it
has always been deemed necessary
to have a Letterip column for
expression of student opinion.
"We have made it a point to
print all signed letters and the
answers to those letters in that
column. The column is published
to air student opinion and any
ellers not containing profanity
are accepted," she stated
At the request of the judiciary
comittee, Marion Mitchell ex
plained the position of Bob John
son, writer of the letter in ques
tion. "He was a transfer student who
came to the campus this fall. He
is the type of fellow who likes
to see things go the right way.
The situation around here was ex
plained to him and he didn't like
it at all, so he wrote the letter.
I have never seen any printing
of the Council election rules and
consider it the Student Council's
fault because they wait until after
the election to bring up a violation
of those rules," Mitchell stated.
Closed Hearings.
After all the testimony had
been heard by the judiciary com
mittee, composed of Merchant,
Virginia Buckingham, Helen Laird
and Barbara Emerson Allen, the
hearing was closed to testimony.
The decision of the committee
was announced as follows:
"The Judiciary committee has
heard the evidence of both sides
concerning the eligibility of Dale
Novotny for Junior Class Presi
dent, and after due consideration,
has ruled that he is eligible for
that position. The policy of The
Daily Nebraskan in regard
Letterip column to publish
signed letter regardless
tent except those containing pro
fanity is not considered a viola
tion of the council election rules
of Section IV, Article IV of the
By-Laws.
"Therefore, the election of
Thursday, Oct. 17, is declared
valid."
Faculty Will
Present First
Recital Today
The first of a series of annual
faculty recitals brings four mem
bers of the school of music teach
ing staff to the Union Ballroom to
day at 4 o'clock. It will be the first
appearance in Lincoln for the two
instrumental soloists, Miss Char
ma Davies, pianist, and Robert
Stepp, French hornist.
Tenor J. Dayton Smith and
Contralto Kathryn Dean will pro
vide the vocal half of the after
noon program. Mr. Smith's four
solos by the Russian composer
Gretchaniniff are particularly no
table because none of these four
songs have been presented to Lin
coln audiences for some years.
Miss Davies has chosen Ravel's
"Sonatine," a three movement pi
ano work in modfied sonata form.
The appealing thing about the se
lection is the combination of the
classical flavor and modern idiom.
Accompanists for the recital are
faculty members Earnest Harrison
and Mary Berner. The program as
it will be presented is:
Allerseelen fltrausa
