Flybait for the Big
Union Build-Up.
pear Mr. Editor, Sir:
You've been having a kinda bad
time with your Union lately, and
would it be all right for me to
tip you off kinda like about an
Idea that sorta hatched on me.
Of course it's nothing fancy like
those little numbers you run in
the editorial columns every day,
but then, I ain't the tellin' 'em off
V-ind. Let's call It just talkin'
hop.
Ya see, Mr. Editor, Sir, a
jorta funny word has been rat
tlin' around in my noggin lately,
and when something rattles
sround up there I know it's a
real visitation of Providence, or
tomething. The word isn't real
fancy, but everybody knows
what it means it's flybait."
By flybait I don't mean" the
trout chasing affairs where you
buy a lotta equipment so you kin
get your feet wet. I'm referring
to the good old everyday variety,
where you're really baiting flics,
not fish.
Of course everybody doesn't bait
flips. Pome catch 'em. I've seen
you yourself, Mr. Editor, Sir, stalk
tome little fly as it went about
its bsuiness, pounce on him with
your hands and nah him. Now you
don't mind my tolling you. Mr.
Editor. Sir, that your methods of
flybaiting are old fashioned. It
may he great sport to go after
flie? with your own bare little
hinds, but it's durn inefficient.
There are lots of flies you can't
pet that way some of 'em are out
of reach, some outfox you.
The Dean Swats 'Em.
A newer technique is to go
fter 'em with a flyswatter.
That's what Dean Thompson
does when he's interviewing
kids with down hours about
staying in college. He just says,
"Excuse me, there's a fly," and
hops to it. And the kid just
says, "Well pardon me, here are
two of em." And when the two
of 'tm are thru swattin' the
Dean just says, "Heck, you kin
make it."
In grocery stores they bait flies
with those darn gooey sheets of
fly paper that always catch cus
tomers too. It always seemed to
me sorta ignoble to be a fly paper
baited fly, because the stuff was
a sort of a mass hoax. And be
sides that the baited flies looked
so sort unattractive all stuck up
like that.
Now us pirls ha'e been fly bait
ing for years. At least we" think
we've had pretty good results. We
just sorta work on the tried find
true principle that sugar catches
more flies than vinegar. Of course
us vinegar pusses hafta be given
a running start, but sugar gets
the men, they tell me.
A Luse to Culture.
Now it does seem to me, Mr.
Editor Sir, that you're passing
up a pretty good angle on this
little culture program of yours.
Culture's a fine thing, and we
gotta get some sure. But most
of us dummies ain't like you; we
gotta be lured to our culture.
Sluggin' and swattin' or even
stickin' up ain't gonna draw us
to culture. But a little sugar
kinda does the trick.
Course I ain't in the know like
J'"u big shot, but it seems to me
that the L'nion building is a sorta
tweet proposition. And us guys
that ain't the same kinda insect as
you hookworms, feel mighty at
tracted to this little deal. We like
the idea of a place to coke and
bull session and take our folks to
meet other kids' folks, and have
formula. We like someplace to
ratch quick grub with our nose in
classpotPg for a. fatal test, some
place to pet a bunch of activity
point all at one whack, someplace
to read, mavhe. iuHt for fun.
And of course I'm not In the
know like you big shots, but I've
heard nasty rumors to Die effect
that the Union might not turn out
to be all eug;ir. Other places, stu
dent renters are In constant use for
evening lecture meetings for de
partmental cluba, for riiuhleal af
fair, for honor banquets with biR
time speakers, for personal study
groups and countless alumni and
tudent cultural functions.
To Get It Down Unbeknownst.
Jeeper creepers! If that's
true, It looks kinda like us dum
mies are going to be getting
some culture In spite of our
selves. Sugar-coated, all right,
at which you may turn up your
nose. But that little layer of
sweetness may gt what many
students feel la a mighty bitter
pill past their gullets to where
it'll do the moat good.
You shouldn't have to sugarcoat
culture? Mebbe not. But the first
doses go down so much more
easily that way. And after your
flies are attracted, or your patient
has unscrewed his face from that
awful medeclne, the dummies may
see that what they're getting ta a
pretty good ideal anr". come back
for more. The lob of a state uni
verslty la to aet out the tweets for
all who choose to come, and then
try to see that they get as much
culture as painlessly as possible.
You car't arrue arainst that; It's
democracy.
So why don't you plup, up the
sour-faced vlnetar doctrines on
culture It comes hard but pain Is
fA and all that stuff and open
UP on some autar for a change
' our Union popularltatlon
'hemes have been going sour on

presented with a free copy of the
words and music to "Sweet Ne
braska Sweetheart," according to
an announcement by President
Winfield Elias.
Written in 192S by Joyce Ayres
and Lamar Burling especially for
the annual show, the song was last
printed in 1931. Hoping to regain
for the number some of its lost
popularity and prominence, the
Klub has accordingly made ar
rangements for this new and mod
ernized edition with distribution to
all revue-goers.
Bright Cover Design.

cover, the song presents a bright
appearance. Printed in two col
ors is a large picture of an ideal

bears a close resemblance to this

the honor. Inside, in addition to
the regular words and sheet music,
there is a page showing this year's
Klub members as well as a brief
history of the organization, includ
ing the origin of the fall show and
the writing of the Sweetheart
song.
Only a limited number of copies
of the song have been ordered so
that it will be a case of first come,
first served. However the Kluh
expects to have enough to satisfy
the demands of Saturday morn
ing's audience. There will be no
sale of the song at music stores.

The most significant difference
between the Greek, Armenian, Al

but of attitude.
"I'm not quite sure," declared
the educator, "how far American
