Anybody Interested? . . .
Maybe it's the weather or maybe it's the natural
hesitancy which many students feel about approaching the
subject, but there has been a noticeable lack of interest in
campus politics lately. Last week the Student Council set
political party registration for March 4 and 5 and so far,
only one group of students has gained official recognition
from the council as a political party.
The Council, in an effort to re-create student interest,
is revising the much-debated Article IV of the rules for stu
dent elections dealing with campaigning and publicity be
fore voting and preparing an interpretation of it. As soon
as the terms have been satisfactorily defined, the Daily
Nebraskan will publish the revised Article and its inter
pretation. Tonight is the last Council meeting before the sched
uled party registration, which means that any political
party which wishes to register students and determine
membership now must submit its Constitution to the Coun
cil for approval tonight.
Spring elections are set for April 1 and the Council
felt that by having registration early, party plans could be
made with more care. Since there is only one party, how
ever, candidates can only be nominated by it and by in
dividual filings unless another party is approved.
No definite statement that this is the last chance for
registration or for establishing a party has been made by
the Council, but the time is getting short. While the Daily
Nebraskan has no desire to stir up a political hornet's nest,
it does prefer a two-party system on campus, with open
caucuses discussions and better opportunities for choosing
the best candidates.
Since the forth-coming spring voting elects Council
members, with the right people on the new Council it can be
With the right people on the new Council, it can be
made a stronger and more effective governing body and a
more forceful weapon for the students to use if they should
ever feel the need of such a weapon.

similar statements.
Physics professor and former
member of the Los Alamos pro
ject, Theodore Jorgensen, voiced
his agreement with Sellers and
Cromwell, adding that ". . . at Los
Alamos we were timid, but now
we have learned that it is neces
sary to say something two or
three times and to say that thing
in a nasty way in order to gain
the necessary attention."
"This action against Lilienthal
represents a near triumph of the
same forces which are carrying
us away from international coop
eration Prof. M. L. Baker of ag,
said. "His appointment is very
important since it represents the
selection of the right kind of man,
and at the same time determines
whether that man can be defeated
by the measures used in this
case.
Following the discussion and
adoption of the memorial. Dean
Ol d lather asked that the memor
ial be circulated thruout the uni

today, and stated that telegrams
would be sent to Vandenberg and
Hickenlooper immediately upon
their receipt.

To date the House of Repre

committee.
