At the request of the Student Council, we wish tn
clarify their recent decision with regard to the Cornhusker
farty. During this year the Council has ureed the earlv
formation of political parties. The Cornhusker Partv has
been the only group so organized. Their constitution was
accepted. Later the Council granted the party permission to
conduct registrations as they might desire. Whenever two j
or more parties are active, it is the responsibility of thei
Council to conduct party registrations. The prevailing situ-
ation of the existence of only one party caused the Council
to grant them this registration privilege.

With the deadline for applica

may go begging for lack of stu

dean of student affairs, indicated
today.
Noting that scholarship appli

of Student Affairs by Saturday,
ADril 5. Dr. Thompson expressed
concern over the handful so far
received. "The students don't
seem aware that they can apply
for these scholarships," he told
the Daily Nebraskan.
For the Asking.
Dr. Thompson's office has com
pleted a list of scholarships to be
granted this spring. This list ana
additional information is available
to all interested students for the
askinc. Dr. Thompson said.
Though the scholarship list is
too lengthy for publication in

that grants are open to students in

pointed out that the Moslem plan
would divide India into two sec
tions, but believed that this would
be no solution because each sec
tion would still have a minority
problem, what with Moslems and
Hindus both living in each sec
tion. Furthermore, differences of
language and the desire of the
people to remain where they are
would make such a move difficult,
and if the split were made the
Hindu state would have the nat
