Item: It is a perfectly normal,
undistinguished day. The sun is
where it belongs, the trees are
doing vhatever any normal tree
would do under similar circum
stances, people are walking hither
and yon it's a ghastly sight. This,
then, is the sort of a day that in
duces a certain type of idiot to
run up, bare all thirty-odd teeth,
drool on your hand-painted tie,
and gush joyously,
"Gee, it's a beautiful and. or fine
day!"
Waxes Indignant.
Beautiful? Well, the sun is
shining but what's to prevent
it? It's as sure as death and down
slips that on a given number of
days, the amount of moisture in
the upper atmosphere will be great
enough to prevent the visible ra
diations of the solar orb to tra
verse the air blanket and reach the
earth. Obviously not worth men
tion. Now if Walt Simon should stand
on the state capitol, and by sheer
lung power (and he has quite
enough) blow every cloudlet into
Kansas let me know. It will be
a red letter day. (This has no
reference to The Scarlet Letter by
one of the Hawthorne boys the
early American sex story of one
sort or another.)

As to this business of beautiful,
well, a day is a day and no more.
You can't whistle at it, or eat it.
The light hurts my eyes anyway.
What, is beauty at that? They
tell me that in certain rather
backward areas in Nebraska, an

Other Business.
The other major topic for
Council consideration was a re
quest by the Innocents Society
that their group be appointed the
one to choose cheer leaders for
the coming year. Stating that this
had been customary prior to 1942,
Ned Raun moved that the priv
ilege be restored, despite the fact
that a week ago the Council
named a committee to choose the
yell squad, composed of the pres
idents of Corn Cobs, Tassels, In
nocents and Mortar Board. A hand
vote failed to. carry the motion.
Dale Novotny, president of the
Student Union Board, presented
a list of six board candidates from
which the council was asked to
appoint three. In an effort to be
acquainted, more fuily vith the
candidates before voting, eg.
pecially because board member
ship has recently been revised, the
Council decided to table voting
until next meeting, when all nom
inees are requested to be present
for interviews.
Dale Ball, chairman of the Cam
pus Improvement Committee, re
ported five projects under con
struction by the committee includ
ing improved campus lighting fa
cilities, extended parking areas
south of the stadium, added traf
fic signals at busy campus corn
ers, elimination of final examina
tions for students averaging 85
percent in any course, and a campus-wide
survey of services which
the student body desires accomplished.
