To the Editor:
Members of the Kosmet Klub have informed me of their decision
to discontinue plans for their forthcoming spring revue. The dupli
cation of the themes of the Alpha Epsilon Rho musical revue and
the Kosmet Klub production was an inadvertent coincidence. Mem
bers of the Kosmet Klub have generously offered their assistance in
the promotion and production of our repeat performance of "I Can
Almost Hear It Now." For this generous gesture, the Kosmet Klub
has the sincere appreciation of the entire membership of Alpha Ep
silon Rho.
Sincerely,

To the Editor:
This leter is to inform the student body of the Kosmet Klub's
decision to discontinue plans for its spring revue. The Kosmet Klub
feels than an explanation is necessary for this move. Last Sunday
night at the Union, a capacity crowd saw "I Can Almost Hear It Now,'
the musical revue sponsored and presented by Alpha Epsilon Rho,
the honorary radio fraternity. Both the Kosmet Klub and Alpha
Epsilon Rho, unknown to each other, chose similar themes for their
production highlights of the preceding half-century. Although "I
Can Almost Hear It Now was primarily concerned with radio's
role from 1900 to 1950, and used this device to lend continuity to
its production, members of the Kosmet Club feel that duplication
of the theme and the proximity of production dates might prove
undesirably repetitious.
After a conference with members of Alpha Epsilon Rho and in
the interest of promoting good entertainment for the student body,j
tion of bettering the fall and spring productions of the coming
school year.
The enthusiasm of Sunday night's audience and numerous
telephone calls to the Union have resulted in thecheduling of a
repeat performance of the Alpha Epsilon Rho revue for Friday
night, May 12, at the Union ballroom. Curtain is at 8:30 p. m., and
admission is free.
May we as members of the Kosmet Klub urge the attendance
of all who have not seen "I Can Almost Hear It Now." The Alpha
Epsilon Rho group presented the type of professional production
which we, limited to an all-male cast, hope eventually to achieve

Who's Getting Cheated? . . .
A headline in last Tuesday's Daily Nebraskan read,
Houses Urged To Take Stand On Cheating." It's too bad
that this headline couldn't have had a companion, running
something like this: "Faculty Senate Takes Stand On
Cheating."
The headline which did appear related to action taken
by the Student Council on this problem which has bothered Kosmet rjub has decided to devote its efforts towards the reaiiza
. . - e TT!
- tis all semester, the problem whicn came up wnen iour.uru
versity students were expelled for stealing final examina
tions. The Council has mailed to all fraternities, sororities,
organized houses and dormatories a statement of the basic
principles ot an nonor system, iue icic
to take up the matter and return their approval or dis
approval, means surgresting that its plan '
is a cure-all, but it at least has gone a step further than
' the Faculty Senate. The Senate bothered itself with the
issue at one of its gatherings, but no one has heard tell of
the matter at any meeting since. The Student Council has
done the most it can do. What has the Faculty Senate
clone
It is the students who are largely responsible for the
cheating. But their leaders are trying to dig up some sort
of a solution to this question which has plagued the campus
for years. We don't feel we're being too rash in thinking
that the Faculty Senate might cooperate. The Council is
attempting to do its share. Who's getting cheated now?
It's the students who are being cheated of cooperation from
the Senate.
The aim of the Council plan is to obtain a pledge from
each organized house that cheating will not be tolerated
by its members. It is general knowledge that while or
ganized houses do not encourage cheating, there is not suf
ficient disapproval to eliminate it to a much greater ex- j
tent. Most houses place scholarship as their primary goal j
But what kind of grades are ill-gotten grades; ine coun

to take stand opposed to cheating. There are other organ

The Council is as much as saying, "This is my best"
What is so obviously lacking is support on the part of the
faculty. Several individual instructors in their classes have
put plans into effect in the hope of tripping up the tempta
tion to steal before it strikes. But the faculty as a whole
has taken no positive action.
The Senate shouldn t have to be reminded that much
of the blame for exam stealing was laid on University in
structors who count as much as 50 per cent of the semester
averages, or even more, on the basis of final exam grades.
But when the Council presented its original plan, one for
de-emphasizing finals,1 its proposal fell on the Senates
ears like bo much dribble. Does the Senate have something
better to offer! If so, WHERE IS IT?
The Council suggestions weren't drawn up by a bunch
of rabble-rousers. They were put together by a group of
students who were most sincere in their efforts. The stu
dents are willing to go half way ... more than half way.
But the Faculty Senate hasn't budged. !

Railroads Strike
A strike of railroad firemen

Among other things there are
sections dealing with attitude,

you might want to look. If more

that Angle Debo is a native ;
