Kosmet Klub
Shrouds Show
With Mystery
Call out the bloodhounds, folks,
we're going to find out what Kos
met Klub has up Its sleeve beside
elbows. For a good long week, now
we've been reading The Daily Ne
braskan but nary a word has the
Kosmet Klub actually revealed as
to Its plans for the Thanksgiving
morning show. The "Rally Revue"
of mean proportions Is getting to
be a downright mystery.
Kosmet Klub has promised that
the show will offer some new fea
tures. Well what are they? Per
haps they will do something orig
inal like burning down another
theater. Anyway it remains as big
a mystery as why the Kappas won
second in sorority decorations.
Youth will do some pretty unusual
things, sometimes, so we're ex
pecting most anything from Kos
met Klub in this instance.
"Deadline is set for Thursday."
Mystery, romance and crime sim
ply stand out all over that head
line which appeared over a Kos
met Klub story yesterday morn
ing. Maybe It does mean that the
skits won't be accepted after to
day, but it sounds mighty suspici
ous. Last night was Hallowe'en,
and we seriously suspect Kosnet
Klub of underhanded work, but
what may It be?

What Is the solution for the Big

Farm relief? Herb Hoover (Dean

getting ready to lure university
Journalists, who are born skeptics,

tonight. Herb's smile Is all trained
to rain California sunshine down on

He was caught playing "Side

Wednesday morning. Al gave the

knights of the press (no, you're
