Truckers of llie. World,
I'nilo!
Nor snow nor fire can keep col
litch gents and gals from rippling
rhythms. The twinkling tootsies of
campuses arc not to bo denied.
And so tonight Shcp Fields will
hold forth in the coliseum and
dancing duos will have themselves
the time of their lives.
Since this Is a special, steep
tariffed occasion, everyone pres
ent will r'an t0 stl'ut nis sllff.
Just dancing dancing seems a bit
flat for the relishing of super
bands, and so terpsichoreans will
bo dusting off their snappiest
steps. Current addictions along
this line still seem to be truckin'.
Therefore we asked leading local
lights how they keep In trim for
festive footwork. The conditions
recommended are illuminating.
Strenuous activities advocated
ranged from peanut guessing
games at Lebsock's to indoor track
events in the fraternity dormitory.
A .surprising number of them have
been made a part of the daily lives
of their devotees, with highly sat
isfactory results.
Practice Makes Perfect.
Many straightforward souls
insist thai: the way to keep in
the pink for Truckin' is to truck.
In doing so Betty Cherny not
only achieved the supplety es
sential to the dance, but also
lost two inches off her hips.
t-urthermore, when the Alpha
Xi Delta furnace went on the
blink not long ago, Betty
Trucked to keep warm most
effectively.
Or one can train for Truckin'
by making the most of the ordi
nary course of human events.
Nothing is quite so conducive to
efficient muscular co-ordination as
rolling out of the down five min
utes before class. Whoa v every
movemont must count, and all
one's dormant energies arc brought
into play, the discipline effected
is productive of dynamic things
on the dance floor.
This cold weather, also, offers
special opportunities for exercise
of the muscles cafled into play by
Truckin'. Anyone who can navi
gate with a modicum of poise, icy
walks, or buck the head winds be
tween Teachers and Sosh with
grace need never fear inability to
master Trurkster antic.
Tips From the Fit.
uiner routine occurrences arc
conducive to Truckability. One girl
groans that Body Mechanics keeps
her fit. Another claims the secret
of her success is in running up
stairs to answer "false alarm"
phone calls at dull hour dances. In
cidentally it was generally con
reded, among the lasses, that the
third floor girls had a distinctive
edge in this conditioning deal, and
should spot their lower leveled sis
ters generously.
Strangely enough, eating and
sleeping play roles for some of
the keep-in-the-pinkers. A fresh
man girlie confides that she eats
heavily between meals to keep
uo strength.' A Delta Gamma
advises, "Go to bed." A serious
youngster recommends service
as bus boy for a sorority, "par
ticularly at the Chi O house." A
man about school practices Tun
ing leaps over four beds to his
top deck bunk at the Acacia
house.
Miscellaneous ideas for Truckin'
trim include: Roller skating, de
veloping sinuous sinews in with
standing the itching of "woolies."
making trains in a hurry, walking
'.wo miles a day. and holding criti
cal clinics on the technique of
True kin.'
There is a strong tie among lov
ers of the dance for their ail.
Oeat things could be arcom
plished if ail that fruitful energy
were handed together, for further
perfection of one of the major arts.
So, Truckers of the world, unite!

Ken Nelson's Music,
25 Cent Tickets.
Ken Nelson's twelve piece or

be the principal nfter-the-game at
traction for many on the Nebraska
campus Saturday evening when
the last of the all-university In
formal parties, the Varsity Hop, is
staged in the coliseum.
Low priced admission is being
given n trial in hopes that it will
enable more students to attend the
party, a 'hlng that many people
on the campus have urged the
Barb Council, the organization
that sponsors the varsity parties,
to undertake. The party commit
tee of the council, in gratifying the
requests, urges that everyone take
advantage of dancing to the music
of a well known orchestra at such
reasonable prices. If the low
prices prove profitable, the low
admission will, no doubt, be per
manent. Tickets 25 Cents.
According to Dean Worcester.
member of the committee, the
party Saturday night is the first
ever to be held in the coliseum,
with decorations put up, at an ad
mission of 25 cents.
Ken Nelson's band is a popular
orchestra of the midwestern states

Expert Explains.
Pespite the fact that every
country today is admitting that
it is not on the gold standard, it is,
however, their gold situation over
which they arc showing the great
est concern. Dr. Melchior Palyi of
the University of Chicago, told an
audience of University of Ne
braska business college students
Thursday morning in Social
Sciences auditorium.
One of the outstanding experts
in the field of world finance, Dr.
ralyi pointed out that the reason
now why some countries, like the
United States with its great gold
reserve, do not seem to be enjoy
ing the boom they should is due
to the fact that there is no such
thing today as an "automatic"
gold standard. Germany, with
very little gold as a basis foi its
currency, is apparently enjoying
prosperity.
"Hot Money" Countries.
The speaker pointed to the fact
that during the past few years
in every country the financial con
trol had been taken over by the
respective governments. He also
explained the existing foreign
monetary situation by grouping
the nations of the world into five
financial classifications.
"The United States and Eng

20 Years of Service.
Since 1918, or for 20 years, Mr.
Quick has been the beloved direc
tor of the university band. To him
the most outstanding experience
during this lime was the trip the
band made to New York in '27
with the football team which
played Army. "That was a hectic
time, selling feathers and getting
donations after broadcasts over
the radio to raise the $5,000 to
finance the trip. Our own Biff
Jones was then coaching at Army
and it was his team that spelled
our defeat."
Mr. Quirk is a most accom

A fire, originating in the
foundry, room 105 of the M. K. i
nuiiiiing. was discovered ihsi nigni
about 7:00 p. m. by Campus Cop
H. B. Wolfe as he made his usual
rounds, unlocking classrooms for
the evening sessions. Kxtent of
the damage done to the building
was unknown, except for the fact
that a hole was burned in the roof
directly above the toundry and a
considerable amount of water was
sprayed about the room.
In an interview with Officer
Wolfe, he explained how he hap
pened to discover the blaze. "1 was
approaehing the M. E. building to
open up the rooms for evening
classes," stated Wolfe, "when I
smelled smoke ami saw flames
shooting up from m hole in the
roof. 1 immediately notified the
fire department, who quickly had
the conflagration under control."
The general opinion as to how
the fire originated was that the
fire in the furnace had been left
burning, and the heat caused the
wood fuel piled near the furnace
to burst into flames, setting fire
to the structure.

Dean Speaks at Convention
of Land-Grant Colleges
in Washington, D. C.
Discussing the subject "The
Cost of Kngineering Education in
Land-Grant Colleges as Compared
with Non-land-grant Institutions,"
Dean O. J. Ferguson of the um
versity college of engineering told
delegates attending the convention
of the Association of Land-grant
Colleges and Universities at Wash'
ington. D. C. Wednesday that tl
nances of the land-grant institu
tiofts have probably suffered more
during the depression than fi
nances of the other engineering
colleges. In preparing his report,
Dean Ferguson secured informa
tion from 68 institutions, there
being an equal number of replies
from each group.
"The budgct-per-student curve
for 1934-35 is lower than for 1929'
30." the dean said. "In general
: this is occasioned by decreased
I budgets, the effects of which are
; greater than the reductions in
numbers of students. Non-land
' grant colleges are perceptibly
above Innd-gTant institutions in
! their budgets per student. In fact
the averages run respectively for
1 929-30-J47.V29 and J306.il and
for 1934-35-1472.69 and $273.35
The budget-per-student figure
was obtained by totaling the ex
penditures of the engineering col
lege and dividing this sum by the
total number of engineering stu
dents enrolled for the same year.
Land-grant colleges also average
lower salaries to their instruct
ional staff than does the other
group, Dean Ferguson pointed out.

The maxim that there is noth

would seem, more truly to Jokes
and witticisms than to anything
else. The chief difference between
the jests of one generation and
that of another is mainly in their
form. The kernel is practically the
same. Some humorous writer
dearly love to make fun of the
absent minded, unpractical univer
sity professor, who, outside of his
own subject, lets his wits wander
and is very slow to grasp anything
in ordinary life.
Such Jokes as these were
cracked centuries ago. by students

Running competition against a

hour, and handicapped by the fact
that classes were not dismissed,
the first student forum of the year
held in the Temple at 11 o'cloc k
Thursday was able to attract only
a small crowd of some i:if stu
dents. Dr. Lyman Harris of the
University of Omaha talked for 30
minutes on the historical back
ground and the possible implica
tions of the recent Brazilian coup
d'etat. The discussion of Brazilian
fascism was continued by a panel
of students who posed questions
for the Omaha diplomatic autho
rity to answer, and at the close
of the hour the forum was turned
over to the audience.
Harris Makes No Prediction.
Harris said that since It wns
little more than a week since Pres
ident Vargas had abrogated the
constitution of Brazil and set up
a regime which bears striking re
semblance to Kurnpean totalitarian
Mstes, one could not form a dis
passionate opinion of 1he si'ustion.
Not wishing to make a definite
prediction as to the liktUhwU of
the Brazilian fascists joining with
those of Germany. Italy and Ja
pan, Harris proceeded to give a
brief history of the economic, po
litical and social organization of
the country. He explained the
culturteerir.g movements which
Germany and Italy have started in
Brazil, such as the offering of ex
change scholarships and the act
ual subsidization of education.
No Threat to America.
Harris minimized the possible
threat to American supremacy in
the west em hemisphere since he
says that the coup is not analgous
toHitler's and Mussolini's march
to power. Dictators in South
America are an old story," he
said. Southern politics have pro

since It permits him to ride to

techniques.

not enough human material in
Brazil to support either fascism,
communism or democracy since 75
per cent of Its people arc illiterate.
