JOHN HOWELL"
AS JOHNNY SEES IT.
Yesterday a wide-eyed red
capped youngster approached me
and with a puzzled expression
asked "Do you have a ghost writer,
Johnny?" For the past two weeks
the same question has been fired
at me several times a day. It's
getting to the point where I'm
continually casting- wary glances
over my shoulder.
Socializing on the part of the
varsity Saturday night will prob
ably consist of trucking in a
bucket of hot water and applying
alcohol to blotches of black and
blue.
Thinking I might be a little
dense concerning headlines 1 held
this one until I had plenty of time
to think about it. In the sport sec
tion of one of Lincoln's bigger
papers, the following streamer ap
peared: "Huskers Cuff Varsity."
What about it, Bentley? Is it you
or is it me?
Here's another one I'm going to
get rid of before socially inclined
pledges pester me to death. The
other day I mentioned a Tri-Delt
who, in her effort to corner Delt
Pledge Bob McCampbell, pushed
him into the wrong car. Since then
numerous pledges have been beg
ging for a chance. Well, it's Mary
Anna of "Mary Anna Sees It"
fame and heaven help me the next
time 1 pass the Tri-Delt house.
The Delta Gamma pledges were
around and about Tuesday night
and, according to reports, the pan
hellenic board is just a bit on the
peeved side. Incidentally, D. G. ac
tives were worried about a report
that the gals had gone places with
Sigma Nu pledges.

AS MARY ANNA SEES IT
The D. G.'s rated a remarkable
audience for their serenade
Wednesday night, despite the late
hour. One of their masculine
Juliets came charging down that
famous Phi Delt glass stairway
gowned in scarlet 'pajahmahs'
looking much too much like a fire
engine.
OUR BIG GAME HUNTER.
Kappa Sig Bob Conrad has the
exciting and dangerous job of rat
killer at a local department store.
BdVs duties consist of setting 48
traps every night and counting his
prizes in the morning. Yesterday
his score was an even 17.

ing the recent tassel drive. She
had been " signing receipts "H.
Cummer," but the one marked
"H. Tassel" looked mighty
peculiar.
MY HOW YOU'VE GROWN.
For most loyal supporters of the
football team, we might nominate
the D. U.'s who are turning up
for the season's games to the
number of 130. Didn't know the
ole fraternity had that many mem
bers, but then maybe I just don't
get around.
An aspiring reporter was asked
to call the Tri Delt house the other
day. Said freshman spent a good
half hour pouring over the "T"
section of the 'phone book with a
very puzzled countenance, "bay,
what's the third Creek letter of
that sorority?" asked the non
plussed freshie.
SOCIAL WHIRL.
You can trust the Alpha Phi's
to beat us all to it by having the
opening house party of the season,
Friday night. They'll be doing
more entertaining this week too,
They've planned an open house
following the big game.
I IT'S QUITE THE THING.

Check on Directory List
Last name lists for the stu
dent directory, beginning with
S, T. U, V, W, X, Y, and Z,
will be posted in the Social Sci
ence hall on the city campus,
and In Ag Hall on the Ag cam
pus today. This is the final list,
and it is very important that
all students correct them, to
make sure their names and ad
dresses appear correctly in the
directory.
Neville have spent the better part
of their days hopping about on
one foot.
Slim Meyer's reward for her lit
tle article about truckin' was a
gift of a plug of tobacco and the
accompanying message, "One good
plug deserves another" from Ed
Ewart.
The Alpha Chi's take the var
sity as theme for their tea dance
Saturday. I've even heard the
orchestra is to be garbed in cheer
leaders' outfits. Sounds like fun,
so I hope to see you all there.

Another party planned for Sat
urday p. m. is open house with
the Theta's. They've promised us
doughnuts and cider to drown our
sorrows or celebrate with as the
case may be.

Tri Delt house after the game for
hot chocolate and sandwiches?
Their party is from 4 to 6 p. m.

not a field of study in which
definite work can be done; they
are not just a new technique
which can be mastered. No one
can make a perfect job of child
management, but anyone can
can make an unnecessarily poor
job by assuming that little in
telligence is required. . .
"The more educated a young
woman is. the more she looks
down on motherhood as a job.
During the prosperous twenties,
her newly awakened ambition was
for personal success. . .Since the
depression, the college graduate is
often ambitious to work toward an
improved social order. . .But can
she not be realistic enough to see
that one of our most acute needs
is for mothers capable of training
children to become fit citizens and
producers in this complex world?
"There is no rouson, not even
the financial one, why the func
tions of 'mother' and 'housewife'
should not be permanently sepa
rated. The former job lequires all
one's skill; the latter does not. For
the household chores commonly
visualized as concomitants of child
care, the modern woman may sub
stitute a congenial and remuncra-
; tive sideline. For while the care of
i her children necessitates a return
j to her home, it need not entail the
I suppression of any special ability
j she may possess.
I "An ideology that insists on a
! career for a woman at the cx-
pense of her children is as foolish
I as one which insists she be a com
I plete homemaker at the expense of
: other interests. Must we always be
i torn between two adolscent ex
tremes? Can we not be sufficiently
realistic and imaginative to reach
a solution which satisfies both the
legitimate desires of society and
the desires of our own hearts?"
Three headline entertainers from
the same family, including the
country's fastest snare drummer,
a -character impersonator, and the
oldest singing Negro tenor, will
provide the high spots on the Var
sity Party program following the
Minnesota game tomorrow night
at 9 o'clock.
Drummer "Sonny" Rice makes
the proverbial trip hammer sound
like a piker as he pounds his sticks
through a number of speed move
ments. Dick Rice, director of the
orchestra does it a la Cab Callo
way style, while Eli Rice, founder
of the Rice orchestra 12 years ago,
.ays claim to being the oldest
Negro tenor still actively singing
Radio Entertainer.
Considered as one of the best
dance bands in the middle west,
the Rice orchestra has had en
gagements at the Club Victor in
Seattle, at Janzen Beach in Port
land, and has played over radio
stations KGO, Oakland; KOA,
Denver; KSL, Salt Lake City;
KFI, Warner Brothers studio in
Los Angeles, and KFBK in Los
Angeles.
Previous to their coming to
Lincoln, the orchestra had been
playing at the exclusive Elitchc's
garden in Denver, and will go to
Des Moines' new $50,000 Tromar
ballroom immediately following
the party Saturday night.
All Students Invited.
Sponsored by the Barb Council,
the party is open to both affiliated
and unaffiliated students, as well
as alumni and friends of the Uni
versity. Price of admission is 75
cents per couple. Single tickets
are 40 cents for men and 35 cents
for women. Dating is optional for
the party.
In commenting on the affair,
Dean Worcester, chairman of the
arrangements, said that no ex
pense had been spared to make it
one of the most successful Varsity
Parties ever held. He also pre
dicted that party-goers would also
get a great deal of enjoyment
from merely watching the band
since it is famed for its flashy
style.

Studied at Cornell.
After receiving his degree of
bachelor of science in civil engi
neering here, Mr. Page studied
for 18 months at Cornell univer
sity where he specialized in hy
draulics and civil engineering. He
first entered the reclamation serv
ice in 1909, in which two years
later he assisted in the construc
tion of the Grand Valley federal
reclamation project near Grand
Junction, Colo. He became su
perintendent of this project in
1925, and in 1930 he was trans
ferred to the Boulder Canyon
project.
I Mr. Page nerved as cniet aa
; ministrative assistant in the con
struction of Boulder dam. the

boulevard and was met by Mr.
Selleck himself. With an explana
tion that was probably quite ade
quate on his lips, Mr. Selleck was
faced with no little difficulty in
delivering it, as shrill whistles, cat
calls, blasting horns, raucous rasp
berries, resounding boos, and bitter
repartee filled the air.
Faced by a barrage of "We're
students of this university, and we
have a right to scats in our own
stadium!" and "Where are you
going to sit, Selleck?" as well as
"How about rebates for the bum
seats we're getting? You made
your dough on this deal!" he was
unable to make himself under
stood. And so after several at
tempts to reconcile the indignant
Greeks to their scats on folding
chairs, to be set up along the
cinder track, Mr. Selleck was
forced to give up and the clamor
ous crowd returned to the campus.
When, at noon yesterday, it was
found that seven of the more
prominent of the campus organiza
tions were entirely without seats
in the stadium, a speedy remedy
was sought. Hopefully, the as yet
unchanged idea was presented,
temporarily, rows of chairs are to
be placed along the cinder track,
and from this position, the mem
bers of the unfortunate organiza
tions are expected to observe the
game. Needless to sa, the round
ed knoll on which the game is to
be played will itself obscure the
greater portion of the play from
uiese spectators.
In answer to demands for sea
son tickets, Selleck explained that
they would be issued shortly after
the Minnesota game. Thru the ac
tivities of scalpers, however, these
organizations would even then be
forced to sit in the balcony or in
other less desirable seats.
Dissatisfied groups represented
were: Pi Beta Phi, Phi Gamma
Delta, Phi Delta Theta, Phi Kap
pa, Psi, Phi Mu, Pi Kappa Alpha,
and Chi Omega.
