By ANDYRICE "LEATHERSTOCKING TALES" Last Chapter "Minute News and Current Views" Seventeen Students Contribute to Volume of Nebraska Verse Seventeen students contributed to Nebraskas first book of student verse which is on sale at Lincoln bookstores and the Regents campus bookstore. The poem winning the first prizs of $50 offered by alumni of the class of '98, was written ,by Janet Pressley, a graduate student. It follows: APOCALYPSE. I dare not be too long aione Lest I awake and find me gon-s; Lest there come thunder in my ears, The rush of wings, the clash of spears, Theriving of timber, and in my eyes, The stinging smoke of Paradise; Lest heaviness should halt my blood In its swift course, a seething flood Of molten, lava, burning wine Possess this body I call mine, Rush hotly through my .finger-tips, Strike leaping flames from my parched lips, Filling my veins with such a fire As Sidon knew or ravaged Tyre. Under my breast my heart might grow Too hot and high to be held so. My sentient self might rise and say, "I am very strong; I will not stay. I am not you nor any woman; I am not God, I am not human. It is no task to tear apart The puny prison of your hsart. I dare not be too long alone Lest I awake and find me gone." The poem which took second prize a $25 offered by the Vestals of the Lainn. honorary organization for women of th College of Arts and Sciences, was written by Helen Rum- hons. It is: TO ONE UNKNOWN. Time has set our trysting place, And Love has marked the day; I know not if it be tonight, Or many years away. Sometimes I hate the many days That Ire between us two, Sometimes I bless the surging years That bear me on to you. Both these, women are members of Chi Delta Phi, women's honorary literary sorority. Of the forty-seven poems in the book the majority are rhymed and metrical. Over a third, however, are free verse. Only some half dozen men contributed to the vol ume, hy far the greater part of the work having been written by women. Among the students who have sev eral poems in the book are Mildred Burcham, lone Gardner, Janet Press ley, Emily Ross, and Helen Rum mons. Miss Gardner's contributions are all free verse, while Miss Ross works entirely in ths rhymed pat terns. Miss Burcham and Miss Press- ley have written most of their poems in metrical and rhymed form, while Miss Rummons is divided about equally between' the two forms. Other students who have con tributed to the volume are Margaret Cannell, Mariana Cummings, Audrey Diller, Henry Eller, Wilbur Gaffnsy, Catherine LaMaster, Marie Mengers, Jere Mickel, Esther Swanson, Verna Trine, Mary Ure, and John Virtue. The poems, except for the two prize-winning compositions, are ar ranged alphabetically by authors.
