Taking Pass-Fail Courses Less than 100 students are making use of the Uni versity's pass-fail system, according to a study con ducted by ASUN's Educa tion committee, The committee recently used the University's com puter facilities to determine how many students are in- . volved in the pass-fail pro gram, Chairman Craig Dreeszen said. The data shows that 91 students are now enrolled in at least one course on a pass-or-fail basis. A further break-down shows that over two-third of these students are senior and the rest are juniors.

Miss Kuester attended the session Nov. 4-5. in New Orleans. Discussions were held in rushing procedures, sorority standards and NPC resolutions Nebraska's rush quota has consistently been above the national quota for the number of coeds pledged during fall rush, Miss Kues ter said. She added deferred rush was not an issue at the Con ference because it is op posed bv NPC.

Dreeszen expressed some surprise at the statistics, saying "there are not near ly as many signed up as I had expected." He interpreted the low turn-out to be a result of the stringent require ments placed upon pass-fail courses. Students are pro hibited from taking such coursework to satisfy their major, minor or group re quirements, he pointed out, and a number of depart ments still hesitate to offer pass-fail work. He aid the fact that 91 students have enrolled in the courses indicates that opportunity to view the new College of Denistry build ing on East Campus.

NEEDS ENLARGING Comparing Nebraska's Greek system to those across the country, Miss Kuester said she thought the University has a good system to work with and only needs to be enlarged. Miss Kuester accepted a letter of national commen dation given to Nebraska's chapter of Panhellenic. The award was based on the successfulness of pro grams sponsored by Pan hellenic during the year, cooperation with National Panhellenic and Greek re lationships on campus. PRICES J 1:3 f. l 3 : i B ( The Daily 7Tb anquets, Manas Jna nonpres LP By Christie Schwartzkopf junior staff writer The highlight of the Uni versity of Nebraska's first homecoming weekend in 1912 was an informal ban queta far cry from the contemporary Homecoming weekend. Rallies, displays, fire works, band concerts, bon fires, tug-of-war contests, reunions, parades, floats, open houses and, of course, football games have all characterized the 45-year-old history of Homecoming. Fireworks and a band concert were a part of the 1915 Homecoming. A year later, Nebraska's football team suffered its first home coming loss. In 1923 the campus boast ed the first of what has been a tradition ever since Homecoming decorations. These first displays, made by sororities and fraterni ties, were merely signs welcoming alums. By 1937, a restriction on the maximum to be spent on displays had been set at $25. From their beginning in 1923 the displays were a ballooning production, with the restriction on expendi tures hiked to amounts of $40, $50, $125, $150, $250, and the current $350. World War II, however, caused a setback and a limit of $7 was imposed. Sororities and fraternities in 1942 sent workers to can vass homes and businesses for scrap metal and crap rubber. Awards were given to those groups collecting the most scrap and to those having the best arrange ment of scrap. In 1943, the Innocents, who had traditionally spon sored the displays, turned over their control to the War Council because there was only one Innocent. The display tradition con tinued in the 1950's with awards given in two men's divisions and one women's division. The bubble popped, how ever. What was termed in 1937 as "fraternities and sororities striving to outdo each other in novel decora tions" had reached its apex, so in 1965 the display tra dition was abandoned.

In 1937, the orchestras of Louis Huhn and Red Black burn were featured in the first battle of music ever heard on this campus, of fering a battle of music rhythm vs. swing.
