JOHN HOWELL
AS MARY ANNA SEES IT
Johnny's hitherto spotless repu
tation gathered a little dust, I'm
told, during his recent expedition
to Missouri. It seems that our
football hero stopped a bit at Kan
sas City on his way home trom
the victory, and did what is com
monly known as "covering town."
In fact, one of the more popular
clubs, so it was told to me, dedi
cated an act to Mr. Howell just
another case of small town boy
who makes good in the big city.
SATURAY'S THE NIGHT.
Got a date for Saturday night?
You'd better brush up on your
technique, cause everyone will be
stepping high at the Corn Cob
Tassel Truckin' Carnival. . Tod
Adams and his 11 piece colored
hand will be imported for the oc
casion and if ally it's to be quite
the party. "Babe'' Milder, cham
pion trucker from Central high is
coming: down from Omaha just for
the affair, and these high school
youngsters can really strut their
stuff. So don't let a mere child
show you up. but get light in and
pitch.
ANTI-CLIMAX.
At last Stan Brewster, Sig
Alph a junior clas. president, and
Wilma Comstock, D. C have cul
minated a two year romance by
passing the stogies and chocolates
at their respective houses, Monday
night. Stan furnished loaded cigars
for all the fellows who have tubbed
him.
THEY SAID IT WITH FLOWERS.
You've heard, haven't you, of the
D. U.'s romantic ways? Bob Nel
son was always noted for his sen
timental poetry, and now two more
of the brothers have d-n their
best to carry on the fair tradition.
It all happened when the D. U.'s
had an hour dance with the Theta's
Saturday night. Ed Shuck and
Dick Smiley made bets with Caro
line Harrison and Lucille Anderson
that if the girls didn't wear the
flowers they brought them, the
gals wouM stake the fellows to
dinner at the Cornhusker. Came
the men, and with them the
flowers smelling suspiciously like
limburger cheese. They were of
course hastily dumped into the
furnace incidentally the house
underwent a thorough fumigating.
The maid still accuses tho D. U.'s
of putting a stink bomb in the
ventilating system, and the din
ner is yet in the offing. Yes, these
romantic D. U.'s!
SPEAKING OF ROMANTIC
WAYS.
The Pi Phi's did the rounds Mon
day night with their musical ver
sion of "Pi Phi Kisses." It seems
to me, but maybe I'm wrong, that
they sang rather with a vengeance
nt the Phi Delt house, but that
might have been art. Which re-!
minds me that the Phi Delt's are i
giving a tea for Mrs. Peterniicharl
whom tlv y swiped from the Pi
Phi house. House mothers and
chapter presidents are invited. It
must be like old home week for
Ginny Gcistcr.
SLIM DIDN'T TELL YOU.
But the Kappa mentioned in
Sarah Louise Meyer's column the
other day was Helen McLaughlin
who after reading the dissertation
on "S" couldn't understand what
It stood for. She must have had a
lovely time wading thru the ar
ticle, and not knowing what it
was all about. "Anyhow, you're
work is to deep for me," con
fessed the innocent senior.
STAGE DOOR MODELS.
Outstanding at the style show
of Hovland Swanson's last night
was the amazing contrast of a
brocaded white lame topped ,y a
gorgeous quilted evening wrap, the
outfit modeled by brunette Jean
Gutzmer. Another creation that
received no little attention at this
charm school performance was
Franres Vaughan's smart ensem
ble of grey caracul jacket and
wool romper dress. Others in the
show were Helen Burnham. Ketty
Ann Patton, Jane Pratt, Vivian
Ksse, Shirley Greene, Arlene Haw
kins, Ruth Hyland, Marjorie Barn
rtt, June Capps. Elma Lolliiian,
Irene Seybold, and Billie Suing.

Indications point to a very dead
social week end this week with
most of the houses conserving the
shcckels and energy for a whoop
ing Homecoming. Things are lin

about six fiats and sororities will
come thru on Homecoming day in
addition to the annual blowout at

This weekend will see the con
tinuation of lust week's endurance
race contest betwixt lanky Bob
Cocklin and Verna Hay, pride and
joy of Kappa Kappa Gamma.
These two were constant, that is.
almost constant, companions last

When quizzed about the deal, thej
invariably blurted out that instead
of going to Mizznu they went to
heaven. Incidently this should
cause a little diss tition in K. K.
G. ranks.
While on the subject of Kappa's,
1 might mention the young mem
ber of said house who was a blank
when one of the top-flight male
socialize! s of the rumpus asked
her how much house he was get
ting. It seems she didn't exactly
know the meaning of house.

getting under way for their sneak
night Monday when the active
chapter, en masse, met them at
the door of the Temple theater

them back to the Pi Fhi house.

I The ten buildings housing books '
are Social Sciences, Brace labora
1 tory, Morrill hall, Law College,
i Mechanic Arts, Bcssey hall, An-;
drews hull, University hall, Avery i
I laboratory, and the observatory. It
I requires a special staff from 10
i minutes to a half an hour to pro
'cure books from these places. And
since new books are pushing books
in constant use off the shelves, the
distribution of needed volumes is
becoming exceedingly difficult.
Thousands Are "Holed."
Dr. Miller threw further gloom
over the situation by noting that
the books being 'holed' daily in
cubbies of waste space adjacent
to toilets and in basement dun
geons are virtually worthless be
cause they are of such a nature
that they must be used near the
stacks.
"Innumberable books, valuable
to research and graduate students,
are being placed where it is all but
impossible to use them," the librar
ian declared.
Figures compiled from a survey
of 222 colleges show that the
average college library seats 25
percent of the total number of
regular students registered. Ne
braska's facilities will accomodate
but 7.4 percent of the under
graduate student body.
Miller emphasized that the old
idea of a library as a storehouse
has become antidated
"There was a time, ' he re
marked, "when books could be
stored In tunnels or anv other
.. J
Iry place without apprec
in usefulness. Now with the library i
as the principle factor in the uni-
versity set-up. the workshop con-!
ception of a library is the only'
feasible one."
