Contest Winner.
Dorothy Lamour, slim, youthful,
French-Irish brunette, who will be
featured by Herbie Kay and his or
chestra when they play for the Junior-Senior
Prom at the Coliseum
Frioay evening, has created a sen
sation in orchestra circles where
ever she has been heard and seen,
according to Bob Tilling and Jean
Aldcn. committee members in
charge of publicity.
In fact, a New Orleans newspa
per characterized Miss Lamour as
the "biggest nine day sensation
since the president visited here."
Nebraska men are cautioned
against losing their hearts to the
attractive beauty Friday night, al
tho according to Miss Lamour's
own version, she has as yet no
glamorous past, is not yet married,
engaged or in love, as has been
rumored.
A native of Alabama, she later
made New Orleans her home, at
tended high school there, and was
for a time, a student at Tulane uni
versity. Entering a beauty contest,
she became "Miss New Orleans,"
and later competed in the Galves
ton world beauty contest in which
she was runnerup.
Miss Lamour joined Herbie Kay s
orchestra as a featured entertainer
shortly thereafter, and has since
appeared with him. At the present,
time, she has been offered several
movie contracts, which she has so
far refused.

FINAL SALES DRIVE
Closing of Banks Causes
Extension of Closing
Date.
"The deadline of the final sales
drive for the 1933 Cornhusker has
been extended one week to Wed
nesday, March 15," Charles Skade,
bvisiness manager, stated Tuesday
afternoon.
"The national bank holiday has
made the financial status of some
students so uncertain." he stated,
"that many desiring to purchase
books at the last minute will be
unable to do so until after the
banks have reopened. For that
reason, we are granting the sales
extension."
Skade stated that only the exist
ing emergency prevented the con
clusion of the drive Wednesday,
and that next Wednesday's dead
line is absolute and final. The
contract for printing the exact
number of copies sold will be sent
in Thursday, and no further books
will be available.
Skade added that checks would
be accepted for Cornhuskers dur
ing the holiday. The yearbook sells
at a cash price of $450. or it may
be purchased in installments of $2
down, $1 April 1st, and the balance
of $1.75 upon delivery of the book.
Members of the business staff
stated that it was impossible to
determine what effect the bank
holiday had on Cornhusker sales,
as sales at the booth in Social Sci
ence have been Tip to average, and
many Tassels have reported good
sales.

YEARBOOK EXTENDS
Professor Am fit Disagrees With
Press on Present 'Bank Holiday9
Expressing h i s disagreement
with some of the statements of the
press concerning the present
"bankers' holiday," and declaring
them to be misleading. Prof. Karl
M. Arndt of the economics depart
ment stated in an interview Tues
day afternoon that the present
bank moratorium is principally a
matter of giving the country a
breathing spell and that several
drastic measures will probably be
placed in operation.
"One of the principal points
brought out by the newspapers,"
Arndt said, "is that it is idle to
speculate whether or not the coun
try has gone off the gold standard.
I think the way in which they
speculate certainly is idle - at least
ihc-ir speculations are beside the
point." He declared that their)
supposed proofs that we are on
the gold star.da--' because we still
have mor e gold than any other j
country is really no proof. Al-1
though we lead in the world in au
tomobiles we are not on the auto

TALKS AT STUDENT
Y.M. Worker to Tell About
American Interests in Far
Eastern Crisis.
"American Interests in the Far
Eastern Crisis" will be the subject
of a talk by Russell L. Durgin,
fourteen years a Y. M. C. A. work
er in Japan, before students and
faculty at the second luncheon
meeting sponsored by the Student
Forum committee in the Temple
cafeteria at noon today. Tickets
are on sale at the Y. M. C. A. of

at Yokohoma during an emergency
he spent four years in Manchuria.
Following the great earthquake of

to help direct reconstruction oper

he has been in Tokyo, organizing

TO SUMMER FACULTY
University Instructor Will
Teach Zoology at
Wyoming.
Dr. Irving H. Blake has recently
accepted an appointment to the
faculty o." f.he Wyoming Summer
Campin the Medicine Bow Nation
al Forest, where he will instruct
classes in elementary zoology with
particular emphasis upon the ecol
ogical side of the subject.
This appointment has grown out
of the advances made by two or
three institutions in Colorado and
from the University of Wyoming
who have been seeking co-operation
of the University of Nebraska
to give zoology courses similar to
the elementary and advanced bot
any courses which Dr. 11. J. Pool,
chairman of the department of bot
any has conducted at Camp Olym
pus in Estes Park, Colorado.
Very little progress was made to
offer such a course of study to Ne
braska zoology students until last
summer when Dr. Otis Wade of the
zoology department accepted an
appointment and conducted classes
at the Wyoming Summer aCmp.
Dr. Blake and Dr. Wade will in
struct the classes this summer of
fering both elementary and ad
vanced courses. Dr. Blake is also
prepared to conduct advanced work
in ecology.
"We are still on the gold stand
ard," according to some state
ments, "because we have the full
gold reserves required by law,
back of our money. The mere
maintenance of adequate gold re
serve does not establish our gold
standard," Arndt stated, "nor is
the country on the gold standard
so long as people can obtain gold
coin. Even in cases in which the
public has no gold coin the gold
standard may exist. The true test
of the gold standard is whether
free trade in gold is permitted."
Regardless of all other consider
ations a country is off the gold
standard as soon as it places an
embargo on gold exports. The
chief thing is whether it permits
free trade in gold.
Contradicting some reports that
clearing house certificates have
not been used since 1907, he stated
that they were last issued in the
United States in 1914 shortly after
the opening of the World war.
