It's funny how the press can
make something of a sporting
event or allow it to drop Into the
unnoticed paragraphs at the bot
tom of the page.
Just one year, ago yesterday
Lawson Little won the British
amateur title. For a whole week
the American press carried a hole
by hole account of Little's prog
ress and how he was expected to
do the next day.
Believe it or not, the British
amateur is going on now altho you
wouldn't know it from the notices
in the papers. It is in the second
round and there is an American
entrant in the meet. He hasn't
won any tourneys at home so the
attention of the public isn't
aroused enough to make it worth
while to carry a good story.
His name is Richard Chapman,
of Greenwich, Conn., and he won
his way to the second round by
virtue of a victory over a Scotch
man, 1 up,
If his name had been Little,
Jones or even Goodman there
would be special leased wires to
the course and every stroke the
golfer played would be told about
in great detail in the next edition.
Well, that just goes to show you
the glories of the famed and the
comparative insignificance of those
still on their way up.
The same would happen if it
were a football team instead of a
golfer. Were some little team, in
any part of the country, to sched
ule games with larger and more
publicized schools and knock them
off week after week the result
would be a landslide of publicity
for the little jerkwater college.
The coach would be set up as a
mentor with the brain of a wizard.
The team would be a squad of
gladiators fighting to put their
alma mater in the limelight of the
spoiling world.
Which all goes to prove only one
thing. The sports press seems to
be able to set up any athlete or
team that the public shows the
slightest interest about, and at the
same time leave those out that
aren't attracting enough attention.
There is no doubt that thru the
present system there are many
teams and individual athletes here
and there that should be getting
the attention of the public but are
shoved aside because others have
more color or background that is
easier to write about. This is no
cry for a reorganization for the
readjustment of the workings of
the present system, but a plea to
take into consideration all athletes
and give them all a decent chance
to break into the public eye.
Elmer Dohrmann made his
fourth letter in a major sport last
Saturday when he finished second
in the javelin throw. Others were
collected in football, baseball and
basketball. There is something
that hasn't been accomplished be
fore according to our records. It
is an achievement that will prob
ably stand for some time without
being equaled. Elmer is slated for
an end position next fall, is a
certain performer on the basket
ball sauad. and will more than
likely make another letter in base
ball. Then if his track performances
imDrove as much next year as
much as it has the last he will
probably set a record besides mak
ing another "N." That will mean
four more, or eight in two years.
And with still another year after
that it looks like a new record in
total number of letter earned will
be set by the boy from Staple
hurst. MEN HAVE TWO
,1 EET, TWO WIVES
iKvk) Minmlmn "'ollicuu i
Men are what women marry.
They have two feet, two hands,
sometimes two wives, nevei more
than one dollar or one idea at
one tiiiie. Like Turkish cigar
etts. men are all made of the
same material, the only difleience
is that some ate a little better
disguised than others.
Generally speaking, they may
be divided into three classes; hus
bands, bachelors, and widowers.
An eligible bachelor is a mass of
obstinance entirely surrounded by
suspicion. Making a husband of
a man is one of the highest plas
tic arts known to civilization. It
requires science, sculpture, com
mon sense, fait h. hope and char
ity, especially charity.
It is a psychological marvel
that a soft fliiffy tender, violet
scented thing like a woman should
enjoy kissing: a big. awkward,
stubby chinned, tobacco and bay
rum scented tiling like a man. If
you flatter a man. it frightens
him to death. If you do not it
bores him to death.
If vou permit him to make love
to you in the beginning he gets
tiled of you in the end. if you
don't he gets tired of you in the
beginning. If you agree with ev
erything he tells you, he thinks
your are a fool; if you don't he
thinks your are a cyn'.r.
If you wear any colors, rouge
and a startling hat, he hesitates
to take you out; if you wear a
little brown toque, and a tailor
made suit he takes you out and
stares at a woman in gay colors
and a startling hat. If you join
him with his gayeties and approve
of his smoking and drinking, he
swears that you are leading him
to the devil.
If you are the clinging vine
type, he doubts if you hae a
brain, and again if you are a mod
trn, advanced and independent
voman. he doubts if your have a
heart. If you are silly, he longs
for a bright mate, and if your are
Intellectual he longs for a play
mate. A man is but a worm in ths
dust, he cornea along, wiggles
for a while, and finally some
chicken gets him.
NEBRASKA COED WINS IN
VOGUE CAREER CONTEST
(Continued From Page 1.)
and encouragement to senior
women in colleges and universities
ol the United States who wished
to make their career in the Im
portant field of fashion. Tht con
test in the form of six quizzes
and a final thesis served as a
preliminary training course in
fashion, and winners were chosen
solely on the basis of their work
in the course. Five hundred and
sixty-eight seniors from colleges
in 46 states not to mention the
District of Columbia and Hawaii
entered the contest, and, ac
cording to Vogue's editors, much
work showed unusual promise and
understanding of advedtislng or of
fashion.
Altho no definite announcement
has been made as yet, it is ex
pected that Vogue's Prix de Paris
will become an annual event for
college seniors.
Around Washington
By arnoud" serwer
(Associated Collegiate Press Cor
respondent) WASHINGTON, D. C In an
other month Washington will again
be besieged by a good many young
college graduates looking for jobs.
This column is a sketchy attempt
to picture employment possibilities
here for those who may be con
templating a berth, temporary or
permanent, on the Federal payroll.
At the present time the employ
ment outlook is not too rosy, but
better than it was two months
ago. Many of those who were re
leased when the AAA disbanded
and other agencies cut their staffs,
have either found other jobs here
or have returned home. The NRA,
on its deathbed for many months,
finally completely expired from the
standpoint of jobs. However, some
of the outcasts found new places,
and some left without delay. Sev
eral hundred of these former NRA
employes still remain as competi
tion for the newcomers seeking po
sitions, along with a few additional
hundreds cut off by WPA, who
have not yet departed.
Supposedly, the recently disem
ployed are o be given preference
in the event of new jobs opening
up. Actually, they won't stand
any better chance than newcomers,
unless they have particularly good
qualifications and specialized ex
perience gained here.
Of course, the Social Security
Board will be the biggest new Fed
eral employer, but all its jobs are
under Civil Service. In about three
months the Civil Service commis
sion will hold examinations for the
staffing of the board. People with
special knowledge or training in
state pension systems for the aged
or in unemployment insurance sys
tems, lawyers familiar with social
security legislation, stenographers,
typists, and clerks, all will be put
thru the Civil Service mill. If a
co-ed happens to be a good sten
ographer or secretary she ought
not to sniff at the work, but should
take the exam. This applies to
all Federal jobs in the new agen
cies. Because quite a few colleee
trained secretaries have in the past
three years hre moved into xecu
tive positions.
WPA. with its new appropria
tion, will probably have a tempo
rary period of expansion to handle
new projects, but by the fall it
may have even fewer employees
than at present. The new setup
taking the place of AAA is re
hiring the furloughed AAA em
ployees first. The National Laboi
Relations board, with its activities
tied up by some 52 suits against it
in the courts, is not lekely to do
much employing this summer, if
any. But probably there is al ways
an outside chance with the NLRB
if you happen to be a really smart
young law graduate, not In rela
tion to the 52 suits but for the
agency's routine work.
The Railway Retirement board
has openings periodically. Tne
Coal Commission doesn't appear to
be taking anyone on. The PWA.
Ickes has told the newspapers wili
be reduced 25 percent if it doesn't
get any part of the new relief ap
propriation. The Resettlement Ad
ministration's huge Washington
force means a small number of
jobs from time to time, as people
leave or are released for one reas
on or another. But the RA has
been raising its employment stan
dards lately, giving examinations
for many of its openings, that are
comparable to Civil Service exams.
In another month, with the pas
sage of new legislation, the picture
may brighten considerably If the

NEW YORK, May 18. Few peo
ple know that Edward Albert
Christian, George An irew Patrick
David Windsor, better known as
King Edward VIII, wrote a march
called "Mallorca" when he was
Prince of Wales in 1934. It re
mained for Mark Warnow, CBS
maestro, to find the tune and bring
It to light. After digging it up, he
set out to get permission from the
king to play it for the first time
on a U. S. network. There came
the problem. How do you address a
king? Warnow did not want to
commit lese majeste. He called the
British embassy in Washington
and the British Library in New
York. According to their advice,
the accepted way to address an
envelop to the king is as follows;
"To The King's Most Gracious
Majesty, London, England." The
salutation on the letter should
read; "May It Please Your
Majesty." And you conclude with
the words, "I have the honor of
remaining Your Majesty's Most
obedient servant." With this know
ledge on hand, Warnow wrote to
his majesty, and waited hopefully
for several weeks for a reply It
finally came thru, granting him
the permission he desired. Wp nv
will play the Mallorca on his Air
show over CBS Thursday, May 21.
He will dedicate the march to
England's Empire day, which falls
on May 24.

On account of their southern
training, the Pickens sisters have
been careful ebout getting too
much sun on their faces, which
would mar their Georgia peaches
and cream complexion. Patti has
been spending so much time out
of doors, however, she is defying
Pickens tradition and developing a
deep coat of tan.

to remove their hats in office ele
vator. Music Footnotes
Miss June Goethe, student pian
ist and violinist, gave her senior
violin recital Sunday evening, ex
hibiting to a small and not too ap
preciative audience the most re
markable talent in musical expres
sion that has been witnessed here
this season.
To those who believe that
technical accomplishment is ev
erything in music we would of
fer the evidence of this recital
in opposition to such a view.
There is no doubt that this ar
tist's technic and sensitiveness
to intonation, altho not exactly
perfect, were of such a caliber
as to command considerable re
spect. These, however, were
quite obviously not the ends in
themselves but only the agents,
the means, with which sensitive
musical interpretations were ac
complished. This, we contend, is
real art.
Adding to the expressiveness of
the music was an exceptional
beauty of tone which was remini
scent of some of the best perform
ances of the professional world.
This was most apparent in the
"Andante" of Goldmark's Concerto
in A minor. Another outstanding!

He Is not the species that every
one has been trying to keep from
their door these last few years.
However, there has been no small
number of opponents that would
refer that he had not darkened

cussion is Claire Wolf, the original

His early racquet wielding was
done on the clay courts in Uni

school. Incidentally, three of the

the suburban school. Two IcIUt
J's were earned for his room gal

one in basketball. In grldding he
played a guard Bpot while on the
maples he performed as a forward.
His caging has been continued un
der the colors of Huskerland, hav
ing played three years as a B team
basketeer.
Wolf stands only so high, but
that altitude is all physique. He
is plenty fast on his feet, swings
a tennis Implement like a sledge
and hits harder than a Dempsey.
Wolf's game has always been
good, in fact among the ur?r
strata, but not always the tearing
an slashing attack that he puts
up now in Big Six competition.
