Holding the social spot light
tMs week end will be the Varsity
Hop at the Coliseum with Ken
Nelson beating out the swing. It's
the last big informal party, they
tell me, and it should draw a fair
sized gathering most because the
price has dropped back into the
common man's bracket.
It looks like the Huskers are
going to have to do without Guard
Lowell English next Saturday
against the Iowa Hawkeyes. Every
day this week, some sweet young
thing has been dropping in at the
infirmary to visit with English.
The entertainment that takes place
is usually the reading of several
nursery rimes and fairy talcs. As
she reads to the crippled Lowell,
he amuses himself by shaking
rattles or playing with a doll.
Every day she brings a new toy to
please the Prince Charming of the
infirmary. Lloyd Grimm, varsity
end who was injured in the Pitt
game, lays idly by and jealously
watches Lowell have his fun.
Worried indeed are the gals
along sorority row today after
hoaiing the news of the Turnpike
fire. When the panic is over they
can settle down to figure out a
new excuse for being late on week
end nights. The old stand by of
flat tires at the Turnpike is defi
nitely out for a while at least.
Blooming more and more each
successive week end of late is the
Virginia Geister-Bob Van Norman
combination. It's getting to the
point now where things are pretty
well lined up for several weeks in
advance. I can't tell how far this
one will go because wise guys tell
me that there is a Sigma Nu who
could rate top position on the
Gelster list if he wasn't tied up at
present
AS MARY ANNA SEES IT
This business of being fashion
conscious is fast becoming catch
ing, this morning on the campus
noticed Annette Bierbohn who
sports a gorgeous grey squirrel.
Turned green with jealousy when
Leone Wilson whipped around the
corner in a knock-out black cara
cul sort of on the order of Jane
Walcott's latest. I even started
checking up on color schemes and
found that three Chi O's may be
distinguished by their kelly green
tnree piece suits. Jean Simonson
Mary Fislar, and tiny -Margaret
Munger from the trio. Betty Van
Home seta off her golden hair
with tne last word in chic, a black
velvet costume suit with gold satin

Phi pledge Mary Stoddart one
night last week and asked if he
might come out to see her after
study hours. The little gal stalled
with the excuse that that would be
way past her bedtime. A few min
utes later, Beta pledge, Herb
Glover, called Mary with the same
request and received a hearty in
vitation to "come right out." A
pledge beating an active's time is
really something.
You may think that this is
where the story ended, but not at
all. Doug clad in pajamas
climbed into the car with Herh
and they both turned up at Mary's
house. It ought to be much easier
for her to get together on her stor
ies next time.
Oil Uul dut
section, have been quite swamped
with offers ever since. Some of the
little gals were not received so
well as Bill informed one, "We're
quite able to get our own dates."
The rub is that both young men
were all liated up for that big
event and were only having a lit
tle fun, so break up the waiting
list girls.
THERE'S SOMETHING
ABOUT A SOLDIER.
A date to the ball with an officer
might not turn out what it's
cracked up to be. You see the
officers' new uniforms haven't ar
rived yet so thev might have
to trip down the aisle in monkey
suit awfully impressive, don't you
ininKr
Some girl still has a chance for
a date to the ball. Dick DcBrown
just discovered yesterday that this
event is fast approaching, and con
fessed that he thought it was a
couple of months away.
BOY SCOUT MERRILL.
Mildred Kruse is so tiny that
ber feet won't touch the floor at
dinner tale. Merrill Englund,
Kappa Sig who waits tables at the
Chi O house evidently thought
something ought to be done about
the situation. So, a large fancy
box was brought to the table.
The girls, always on the outlook
for a candy passing screamed in
surprise when the big tag ad
dressed to Mildred revealed the
purpose of the box a footstool
for her itty bitty feet

MASON TALKS AT CIVIL
ENGINEERS' MEETING
Bridges Executive Explains
New Responsibility
Of Profession.
It will be the obligation of the
generation of engineers now in
universities to help secure and
maintain harmony among labor,
industry, and government in the
years to come according to John
G. Mason, state bridge engineer.
Mason spoke last nipht before
members of the Nebraska chapter
of the American Society of Civil
Engineers.
"In the past, the engineering
profession has played a leading
part in the securing of sanitation
and good health for the masses,"
stated Mr. Mason. "Now it must
use its influence to secure com
fort and happiness for them."
Engineer Completes Triumvirate.
Although disclaiming any au
thority for advocating a means of
accomplishing this "vision," Mr.
Mason declared that he wished to
impress his audience that the rela
tion and influence which engineers
are coming to have on the prog
ress and expansion of industry and
the welfare of labor is growing
steadily. Labor, industry and the
engineer were termed a sort of
triumvirate.
The meeting was held in the ex
ecutive board room of the Y. M.
C. A., and was preceded by a
dinner.

By Elwood Randol.
Jane Cowl, famous actress of the
legitimate stage, will bring her
artistry to the Kate Smith Va
riety Hour when she will be heard
in the Maxvell Anderson drama,
"Elizabeth, the Queen," this eve
ning at 7 over KFAB.
George McNamera, custodian
and guardian of the Constitution
of the United States, and Anauta,
an Eskimo woman and mother of
three children, will be the featured
guests of the We, the People pro
gram which -is under direction of
Gabriel Heatter. McNamera will
tell many interesting facts regard
ing the historic document he
guards, and will relate several
anecdotes of the people who view
the famous parchment. Anauta will
tell stories of her people and of
the amazing chain of circum
stances which finally brought her
to the United States.
Gags must be getting a lit
tle scarce in radio. At least this
department noted that the same
"joke" was pulled on two pro
grams within an hour. Edward
Everett Horton got it off first
when he appeared as a guest on
Al Jolson's show Tuesday night.
Then, immediately following, Al
Pearce got the gag off the sec
ond time. The joke? Well it was
that old one about beating a
man's liver with a stick.
Dave Elman Hates Subways.
Dave Elman, originator of Co
lumbia's Hobby Lobby heard Wed
nesday evenings at 9:30 over
KFAB, is five feet, six ipches tall;
weighs 153 pounds, has black hair
and brown eyes. Hates women who
are clinging vines. Doesn't like
subways. Admires the works of
Mark Twain, Longfellow and
James Whitcomb Riley. He likes
to fish whenever he gets a day
on.
Senator Edward R. Burke of
Nebraska will be one of the three
speakers who will discuss "Whose
Constitution?" during the Amer
ica's Town Meeting of the Air
broadcast this evening at 8:30. No
local station will carry the pro
gram which will be on the NBC
Blue network, but it is likely that
WEN'R, WLS, or WREN will have
it. Others to speak on the broad
cast are U. S. Solicitor General
Stanley Reed, a staunch supporter
or President Roosevelt's plan of
court reorganization, and Norman
Thomas, socialist, who favors an
even more liberal policv than that
advocated by the administration
forces.
Skylines.
The newest lines on evening
gowns are skylines, according to
the latest fashion sensation In
troduced by Betty Winkler, NBC
actress.
Miss Winkler designed and
created a new flouncy, white
chiffon evening gown wtih a
photographic reproduction of the
Chicago skyline, ten inches high,
around the hem. The hem was
sensitized with a photographic
solution and the pictures printed
on it in the same manner as
regular photographic prints are
marie.
Fashion's newest designer Is
heard weekdays on the Girl
Alone serial over the NBC red
at 11 o'clock.
Code Letter.
Dear Mr. Cohan (Saturday
Night Swing Session): "Well, a
! man has sure got to be high and
i solid in order to lay some powerful
jive like I m about to write you
1 1 ve been blowing my top and
I putting myself out and have been
told I was a solid sender and a
: killer. I've been laying jive and
talking viper talk since way back
I I'll bet I'll send the Swing club
' so high I'll break it up, if you only
I give me a chance. As I've told vou
before I've been told I was a solid
sender who kills." J. B., Hoboken,
N. J.
Translation.
J. B. 's letter, translated into
j the King's English, says:
"Dear Mr. Cohan: A man must
assuredly be possessed of a con
I sidcrahle faith in his own inability
I before recommending himself as
unstintedly as I intend recommend
ing myself in this letter. I have
; long been associated with jazz
I music, and as a result of indefatig
, able labors in this field I have
earned the reputation of thrilling
l my audiences and of being, myself,
: a consummate master of impro-
visation. I have been actively en
; gaged in swing music for many
years now, and have always prided
myself on the fact that I spe
pure swing vernacular. I am will
ing to wager that if you should
be so kind as to accord me
opportunity, 1 could play so sensa
tionally that the Swing club audi
ence would be transported and en
raptured. To recapitulate, I should
like once more to remind you that
1 have often been complimented
i on being a thorough musician who
plays with incffab!e virtuosity.
