By doing this a school brings the measure up for a second vote, and then, It it recelves two-thirds of the votes, It becomes a rule of the "Big Seven." In the voting last year Kansas rejected the action of the conference in abolishing | the table, and In the second vote Ne- braska, Missourl and Kansas voted to keep the institution. When the second vote is taken on the question this year these three schools will stand together again and the table will be kept for another year. Nebrawka Talks of Withdrawing.
