GYP AGENTS PREYING
Sergeant Regler Issues a
Warning Against Such
Salesmen.
Gyp magazine salesmen, some of
them purporting to be Kansas and
Oklahoma university students
working their way through school,
are preying on gullible Nebraska
summer school students, especially
women, according to Sergeant Reg
ler, university police officer.
Officer Regler has received nu
merous complaints in the last two
weeks concerning the operations
of these salesmen, has ordered
.-.sveral eight in one afternoon
off the campus and succeeded in
frightening one group out of town
by holding them for investigation
in the city jail.
These salesmen, according to
Regler, offer popular magazines to
students for the price of postage
only. Then, when the victim has
signed up, he discovers that post
age will -be five cents a copy and
that $2 of it must be paid in ad
vance. When he protests, the
salesman, who has the buyer's
name on the dotted line, replies
that he is working with authority
from the offices of the dean of
women and dean of student affairs
and that unless the victim pays, he
will be reported to one of those
offices. This is of course his bluff.
Sometimes the victim pays.
Sometimes he (or she) reports to
Officer Regler and the salesman
hurriedly departs.
Since ordering these magazine
salesmen off the campus, Regler
says they have been patrolling the
streets near the campus and meet
ing their prospects there, out of
the jurisdiction of campus police
officers, as they go to and from
school.
Regler asks all students meet
ing these salesmen to report them
to him. He will prosecute for ob
taining money under false pre
tenses if any victim will file a
complaint.

Helen Hoag of Seattle, Nebraska

the University of Washington

Lincoln this week, having hitch
hiked from the coast alone.
"I made the trip in six days,"
says Miss Hoag, "and walked less
than ten miles of the way. I
stayed at hotels and tourist cabins,
for I don't believe in hitch-hiking
without money. - I carried no
weapons and wasn't afraid of any
body."
Like Lindbergh, she says she
succeeded in making the trip be

BOARD OF REGENTS
ECONOMY PROGRAM
New Budget $566,342
Under Present 'Hard
Times' Schedule.
Staff, Salary, Promotion
Cuts Adopted.
Drastic salary cuts, reduction of '
staff, and reorganization of de
partments were found necessary
to balance the budget at the Uni
versity of Nebraska next year.
Detailed information regarding
the budget for the coming year
was announced Saturday by th
board of regents following a meet
ing at which the budget for tha
year July 1, 1933, to June 30, 1934,
was approved.
After analysis of the actual and
estimated income for the next
fiscal year, the regents found it
necessary to reduce the new budget
$663,342.68 below the 1932-1933
budget. A similar or perhaps
even greater saving will have to
be effected for the second year of
the biennium. This reduction is
caused by reduced appropriations
from taxation money, reduction in
federal funds and loss of income
from student feas. The total budget
amounts to $2,642,286.81. not in
cluding the budget for agricultural
extension work, which cannot be
determined at this time because of
uncertainty as to available federal
funds.
Outstanding In Budget.
Outstanding points in this
budget are:
A 22 percent reduction of all
salaries of $1,500 or more as com
pared with the 1931-32 figure and
a reduction of all salaries between
$500 and $1,500 to the cost of fill
ing the positions with new people.
Elimination of the 'school of fine
arts and the consolidation of its
work within the college of arts
and sciences. The school of music
will remain as a separate collegi
ate school.
Elimination in staff of forty-six
major positions and twenty-six
minor positions in addition to not
filling positions left vacant by
deaths.
Elimination of all tuition schol
arships and reduction of graduate
scholarships and assistantships by
about 25 percent.
Curtailment of the work at the
Nebraska school of agriculture at
Curtis by eliminating four teach
ers and abolishing the college pre
paratory course.
A 25 percent reduction in ap
propriations for the ceriaiental

sion. She has just completed a
year of graduate work in sociology
