'The Boys' Strike Again
Apparently one night of storming campus streets was not
enough for .the two to three hundred University men who re
peated part of the previous night's adventures Thursday.
This time Dr. T. J. Thompson, dean of student affairs, talked
to the men when tbey arrived at the Residence Halls for Women.
While trying to convince the boys to return home, Dr.
Thompson was hit with water.
Dr. Thompson said it was quite possible that a non-University
person was responsible. Quite a few grade school boys were
in the area, he said.
The dean told the men he Just could not permit such a
"rowdy-dowdy event" at this institution.
. Said the dean: It is too bad that 200 students are giving a bad
reputation to the University.
Later, after the men finally left, Dr. Thompson added that he
"certainly could take it" although he hates to have these things
happen.

him about the action that the

suggestions concerning student

faculty sponsor, said she believed
that some clarification could be
made in the resolution as it now
stands.
At present time The Daily Ne

printed is stated in Article II of
the by-laws governing student
'publications which reads:
It is the declared policy of
the Board that publications

free from editorial censorship
on the part of the Board or on
the part of any member of the
faculty of the University, but
the members of the staff of The
Daily Nebraskan are personally
