Three Cheers
For the new pep group.
The University of Nebraska, never in the past decade
rioted for outstanding student spirit, will boast a new cheer
ing section for the home football opener with South Dakota
Saturday. nnn .
A new pep group, composed of about oOO students, will
have seats on the 50-yard line. These students met Wednes
day night in the Union ballroom to practice cheers, songs
and card routines.
From their central location in the east stadium, they are
expected to radiate organized cheering to the entire student
body Along with other students groups, such as Innocents,
Mortar Boards, Corn Cobs and Tassels, they will form the
nucleus of spirit at all home football games.
Since organized cheering is something NU has long
lnt ihp five Cobs who formulated the
plans. The new system should

Dean 17 Years.
Dean Oldfather has been Dean
of the College of Arts and Sciences
for 17 vears. He has been teach
ing at the University of Nebraska
since 1926.
As to administration, the Arts
and Sciences college was the first
on the campus to use an Executive
committee. This committee assists
the Dean in administration, passes
on qualifications of new faculty
members and promotions of fac
ulty members and cooperates with
the Dean in making up the bud
get. Elected by the faculty, the
committee includes four members,
not more than two being ehair
rr.en of departments and one be
low the rank of professor, who
serve a term of four years, ur.
a P.nwo. Dr. D. W. Dysinger,
Dr. C. E. Georgi and Dr. B. G.
Carter are the present memoers
of the Executive committee.
Much of the business of the col
lege is carried on by the Course
of Study committee. This com
mittee passes on student petitions
and takes care of credits, majors,
minors and catalog material. It is
made up of one representative pi-r
rir.nsrimpnt- annointed by the
Dean to serve a four year term.

Chatter
By Poochie Rcdiser
Student enthusiasm is expected
to be raised to a high crescendo
Friday night when cries of rally,
rally ring through the campus.
Yell King Frank Piccolo and the
yell squad will lead the crowd
from the Union at 7 p. m. on
down through sorority and fra
ternity row.
Among the Tassels and Com
Cobs keeping up the spirit will be
Bob Rogers, Gordon Petersen,
Jerry Siegel, Marilyn Vingers.
Jackie Hoss and Jan Zlomke.
Here's a suggestion to those
fellows that want to save on the
cash Friday night and have a
good time af'.er the rally. Take
your date to one ol the all-campus
church parties lor an eve
ning of free entertainment.
Whether it's parties or dancing
you want, you'll find it.
Then too. there's Rally night
at Kings and rally clothes will
be in order. Sure to be seen w ith
the rest of the chowd will be Tom
Kokjer and Lois Elwell, Beth
Randel and Cub Jesel and Jan
Beechler and Thorn Snyder.
Plans are in the making for a
terrific opening Union party
Saturday night the Frosh Hop.
Along with the Innocents and
Mortar Boards who will greet the
students, several hundred couples
are expected. Three bold fresh
men and their dates, who will
brave the dancing will be Bill
Hall and Sue Porter, Jack Fop
arty and Jo Hansen, and Pat
Wells and Ann Barlow.
Of course, if you're the type
that can't get a date (don't be
alarmed, there are plenty line
you)come stag. It's fundamentally
a get-acquainted party for the
freshmen, and you might meet
your future.
Jerry Johnston, local school
teacher, just can't keep away
from famous. The KKG house
has been holding an attraction for
him in the lorm of cnar noi-
comb ... so they say.
Just who freshman Bob Reyn
olds will escort to the Frosh Hop
Saturday remains a secret . . . dui
the lurkv cirl will have to keep
her eyes open for competition.
Bob is known or rus competitive
spirit in sports, but as for the
fairer sex . . . give them a break,
Bob.

"Nobody cares about these
things except a bunch of radicals,"
roared an irate member of the
late Student Council.
"These things" are, of course,
student government goings on and
unfortunately this statement is
only too titie. Our campus seems j
to delight in presenting an amaz-
ingly accurate panorama of our
national political scene. It's phil
osophy, sad but true, is to have
politics for the politicians, most
of whom are just what our trieno
of the Student Council labeled
them, radicals.
After a brief pause for a tear
over the situation we hasten to
say that the campus is embarking
upon one of the most momentu
ous years in its history. Just ex
actly twenty years ago a student
named David Fellman whom the
campus later knew as a poli. sci.
prof, played a major role in the
revision of the Student Council
constitution the same constitu
tion which was swept away by
a faculty decree last spring. This
year the body politic of the Uni
versity is faced with reconstruct
ing for itself a new set of prin
ciples to live by.
The newly organized Student
Council will" lead the way. But
it can't go that way alone. Con
sequently, the campus faces a
rhnicp which mieht iust as well
be made before the 24 members
of the Council beat their heads
against the wall of student indif
ference.

The choices are (1) to suppoit"
the Council, not with blind faith
but with an intelligently ciitical
attitude or (2) to '-let the politi
cians" do it and abide by their
decision in silence or (3) to
shrug off the entire matter, ignore
the course of student government,
and complain bitterly about the
sad state in which the University
finds itself.
Naturally, the first choice is the
more preferable. Not because .
student eoverrment is an end in
itself. Not because what hapr"ns
to student self-determination 1his
year, or any other year. r of,
earth shaking importance. It isn't.
Put because we naively pre
sume that a majority of the cam
pus is seeking a higher education
to better its status in this old
world. Because students go to
engineering classes to learn to be
come engineers and thereby in
crease their financial potcntif-lties.
Students investigate the arts to
make each a better occupant of
a better world. In order to
achieve this end the student must
also N a good citizen.
No one would think of attempt
ing to run a drill press without
first taking instructions concern
ing its operation. No one attempts,
to play a piano without lessons.
But everyone seems to think that
he can be a good citizen without
any practice in the art of gov
ernment. Voting is more than a
matter of marking "x" on a bal
lot. The Student Council isn't im
portant. Neither are a host of
other campus organizations which
occupy student time and thought.
But the organization is a matter
of prime importance.
Sometimes NU's activity pro
gram slips out of focus. It's
geared to give the you, the stu
dent training for local, national
and international affairs.
It's for you and it's up to you.
It involves a little thought while
walking to class. Two minutes of
reading the Rat and another two
minutes of talking to a Council
representative. And walking into
the Union two or three times a
vear to vote.
That's the story. Your story.
