In Fine Style9
Attention students! "Husker-
man" reports that the 1948 Ne
braska "Cornhusker" is coming
along in fine style. He predicts
that this year's issue will -be one
of the finest ever published.
"Huskerman." the little char
acter who will be seen throughout
the pages of the year-book, has
been having a busy time keeping
up with activities on the campus
and seeing that the "Cornhusker"
staff covers all those events that
will make up the annual publica
tion. All pictures for class and fra
ternity sections will be completed
this week. Many of the write
ups have been handed in and a
great d-l of the engraving is fin
ished. Ine section for the vari
ous colleges of the university is
also ready to go to press. This
year's cover has been chosen and
it promises to be attractive and
different from other issues. Since
photographs will be taken until
April, the campus scenes section
is not yet complete, but the

Chancellor'
Greeting
To All Members of the
University Family:
May we take this opportun
ity to wish you all a very
Merry Christmas and a Happy
New Year. The past year has
been a year filled with much
satisfaction because students,
faculty, staff, and their wives
have worked together as a
team. For this fine spirit we
express our deep appreciation.
That the holidays may be
rich in all of the good things
of life is the sincere wish of
Reuben and Edna Gustavson,
'Persians'
Will Appeal
To Senate
Ben Wall, president of Persians,
proposed campus organization, de
clared in a special statement to
The Daily Nebraskan Thursday
afternoon that the council's de
cision not to accept the constitu
tion will be appealed to the
Faculty Senate early in January.
"We have spent the last 18
hours trying to revise our con
stitution to meet with the ap
proval of the council,'.' Wall
stated, "but we find that any of
these changes would reverse the
entire nature of our organiza
tion." The decision to appeal fol
lowed the unsuccessful attempt at
revision.
Bob Wenke, law college repre
sentative and chairman of the
constitutions committee of the
council, declared in his report- to
the council Wednesday that the
proposed organization is a "se
cret political fraternity."
Wall, in his statement, at
tacked this charge by declaring
that "Persians is neither a secret
organization nor a fraternity. It
is political," he admitted, "but we
aim only to see that the best quali
fied candidates are placed in of
fice, and do not intend to limit
these candidates to our own
members."
Further attacking Wenke's
stand, Wall, arts and science
freshman from Arcadia, stated
that "Mr. Wenke resorted to
name-calling in order to prevent
the acceptance of our constitu
tion." busy carrying out their picture
schedule.
The business staff has been sell
ing ads and keeping the finances
in order. More than 200 workers
making up the large "Cornhusker"
staff are hurrying to meet the
deadline within the next few
weeks. .
Almost every issue of the 1948
"Cornhusker" has been sold. The
books will be in the hands of the
students before the end of the
schol year.

Senior Week Proposal
Also Sent to Committee
BY WALLY BECKER.
Action on the Student Council's tentative plan for a
Senior Week and the proposal for an all-University open
house was postponed by the University Faculty Senate
which voted late Thursday to refer both proposals to special
committees for study.
Dale Ball presented the Student Council proposal for an
all-University open house, which would, among other things,
split the traditional Ivy Day ceremonies into three parts, to
be held Friday, April 30, and Saturday and Sunday, May 1
and 2.

After-Vacation
Entertainment
w an Christmas vacation a i
reality at last, the ag union ac
tivities board has turned toward
"after-vacation" plans, with an
eye towards providing more en
tertainment for ag students.
Jack Dewulf, chairman of the
dance committee has announced
a dance in student activities
building for Friday, January 9.
Music will be by Bobby Mills and
his orchestra. "This will be the
first such dance to be held on
ag campus and, with the support
of the students, we hope to offer
more," remarked Dewulf.
Tickets for the dance will re
tail at $1.50 per couple and danc
ing will be from 8:00-11:30. Tick
ets are on sale now at the ag
union office.
The "siesta hour," a feature of
the general entertainment com
mittee will be continued after va
cation at 12:15 Tuesday in the
union lounge. The program will
consist of selected short subjects
and a cartoon, according to Neil
Miller, chairman of the committee.
Prof. N. H. Cromwell's proposal
that a special faculty co-ordinating
committee work out objections and
rough edges of the Ball plan was
adopted by the Senate.
The proposal for a Senior week,
to be held May 31 to June 7, was
presented by Senior class presi
dent Glen Blinde. He was imme
diately besieged by questions and
objections by the professors.
Philosopher Asks.
Dr. W. H. Werkmeister, chair
man of the philosophy depart
ment, asked Blinde how a Senior
Week and an examination period
could be run concurrently. The
proposed Senior week would run
from May 31 to June 7; final ex
aminations are scheduled from
May 26 to June 5.
Elinde replied that a Senior
Week would preclude any final
examinations during that period,
but suggested that a preliminary
period of exams for seniors might
be held before the regular exam
period if the professor wished.
Strenuous Protest.
Immediate protests to another
period of exams was voiced by
N. H. Cromwell, of the chemistry
department, who said that exams
at that time would completely
overwhelm the harrased profes
sors. The senate enthusiastically
confirmed his objection.
Dean T. J. Thompson protested
the seniors being excused from
final exams. "Final examinations,"
he asserted "must be taken." Dr.
W. K. Pfeiler supported Thomp
son's objection. He emphasized
that finals were an integral part
of the semester's work. Pfeiler
was supported by N. H. Cromwell.
Reports Are Not Grades.
At this point Prof. D. A. Wor
cester rose to clarify a student
misunderstanding. Students, he
said, commonly think that the pre
liminary reports made by instruc
tors to the registrar just previous
to final examination period con
tain the final grades for the sen
iors and that finals for seniors
are thus unnecessary. "They do
not. Thoy are merely statements
of whether or not a senior will
pass the course; they do not indi
cate his semester grade, which is
reckoned after the final exams,"
he said.
Professor Cromwell then moved
that the Senate's committee on
committees appoint a committee
