AS JOHNNY SEES IT
I dropped in at. the coliseum
yesterday afternoon to watch
Coach Browne whip the boys
through their paces on the basket
ball court. Everything was com
ing along smoothly except that
Paul Amen was inclined to limp a
little bit. 1 cornered him and
asked what mipht be the trouble.
"Damn skates," was all he said. It
scams that Paul and Jane Walcott
went out to the skating rink at
the state fair grounds Wednesday
night and proceeded to get pretty
fancy. When I got there Amen
was sitting in the middle of the
rink looking very disgusted indeed.
He seemed to bo in that position
must of the evening but still per
sisted in getting tricky. That
ouuht to prove somebody's point
that athletes can t dance. Or may
bo, because Janey was there, fall
ing down was just a subtle way of
getting across a point or two.
Jane Hayes. Theta, seems to
have a bit "of that Roosevelt, Jr.
passion for breaking cameras,
l.ynn Thompson has been begging
for moons and moons for a picture
(if his true love but that's defi
nitely out as far as Jane is con
cerned. So Doc tears over to the
Awgwan, held his nose, and
charged into the office to get their
camera. Then he laid in wait for
Miss Hayes at the Uni Drug. When
she passed Tom popped out and
took a candid shot. The infuriated
Theta at once began pounding on
the lens until Thompson thought it
wise to flee. I understand that she
is still in a frenzy.
Going quietly about its business
on the campus and yet continuous
ly popping up is a club called Ra
jah. 1 was beginning to hear so
much about it that I decided it was
time to check up and see who was
running the deal. I found it to be
a duke's mixture of frat boys who
have banded together in the inter
ests of more and better Sunday
evening bull sessions, etc. Mem
bers are Jack Gellatly, Chick Rob
erts, John Miller and Max Lake.
They tell me that rushing is pick
ing up considerably but member
ship is limited to those who are
well versed in that well known
Spanish sport.
AS MARY ANNA SEES IT
Tf the two practices at the Coli
seum were a sample of the Ball, it
ought to be rather rough. I'm only
hoping that some poor maiden In
distress doesn't get her head
chopped off by an unwieldy sword.
It was rattier fun watching the

By Pnscil.a Wicks.
With the return of coods to the
rumpus following vacation a re
juvenated spirit for intramural ac
tivities has been noticeable. For
the. first time this year two com
plete sports programs arc being
run otf nt the same time. They
are bowling and badminton, two
all-important sports on the W.A.A.
calender. Practices for both activ
ities are being pushed forward fu
riously, the actual tourneys being
scheduled for the second week of
December.
Bowling this year is proving
the popular sport it has been in
former years. Every afternoon
the Lincoln bowling alleys are
crowded with femme kegleri,
desirous of securing berths on
their respective teams. Many are
the Phi Mu bowlers who are
practicing regularly in order to
retain their first place trophy
captured In last year's tourna
ment They will miss the high
scores which Jeanne Palmer pre
sented them for four years and
are now attempting to built a
team without her.
Many known individuals are
more than diligent In theii prac
tice hours. Betty Hillyer. of Theta
fame, can be seen oftener than
not wheeling the bHli down the al
ley while Janet Lau and Mary
Margaret Maly arc making sure of
their plares on the Delta Gamma
first squad. For the Tri Drlts
Frances Knutzon and Jo Henn
hold the limelight. Frances, who
incidentally Is in charge of Intra
mural bowling, ran be counted on
for a consistent above l.r0 tally.
Jeanne Slimier of the Gamma Plu s
and Harriet Cummer, Kappa, are
two other bowling notables who
will figure prominently In this
year's tournament. Upholding the
barb section are Joy Pestal and
Pat Tope, both super keglers who

girls dodge. Claudine Burt even
had her hat knocked off in the
scuffle. But the best show was
given by Bob Bernstein, who by
the way executes some rather
fancy tricks with a gun. Wednes
day night, as everyone watched
with abated breath, Bob slipped
and spilled the weapon, upon
which he let out a few terrific
words that resounded throughout
the room.
DINNER AT EIGHT.
Or maybe it's seven. Whatever
the hour, we'll all be dining in
style tonight. At the University
Club, Stan Brewster is having a
party of six. Barney Ingram has
reserved for fourteen, Jane Bell
for four Jean Metz four, Charles
Roberts fourteen, and Dorothy
Smith twelve. There will be quite
a crowd at the Lancaster room at
the Cornhusker. John Jarmin. now
a lieutenant at Ft. Crook, who
comes back this year as an old
alum of a year's standing, has a
table for four. Don Xabity has re
served a table for eight of his
D. I', brothers and their dates,
while seven Phi Psi's will enter
tain there.
'
BRAINS OR BRAWN.
Bill Callihan wandered into the
Coliseum the other day and found
Betty Cherny stamping Mortar
Board party tickets. In the course
of the conversation Bill, having
not the slightest idea whom lie
was addressing, asked Betty whom
she thought was slated to lead in
the honorary race. She, realizing
just what she had to deal with,
hemmed and hawed and asked his
opinion. Luckily, Bill was hesitant
about expressing himself and must
have been much relieved when
Eetty revealed her identity. To
cover up his embarrassment, he
helped her stamp tickets for an
hour, during which time Betty dis
covered that he didn't even know
how the lucky girl was elected.

OPENING NIGHTS.
The Alpha Phi formal and the
Sigma Nu Digge dinner tradition

and fraternity parties of the sea

Issued by the Phi's? They're done
in silver with lettering in deep red.
The affair's to be at the Corn
husker, so won't It seem good to
get back into the swing of things?
Don't know whether you've ever
heard of the Sigma Nu date chart,
but they do keep one. All the fel
lows are required to list their dates
thereupon and at the top, so I've
heard, are twenty or thirty names
of prospects. It might be interest

For aspirants to whom bowl

with a purpose like tem.is. Only
four coeds from each house are

TAGS AMERICA AS
PEACE 'NUCLEUS'
"American Responsibilities"
were sketched by J. B. Priestley
noted English novelist, dramatist,
essayist and critic, as he apokc
before 2,500 Purdue students Nov.
24. The Englishman pointed out
that the Americans for the nu
cleus of peace movements and
placed a great deal of the responsi
bility for maintaining peace upon
our shoulders.
"The nations of Europe are
keeping an eye on the Americas.
What you do, they do! Reasoning
form the facts that your country
is the initiator of world peace it
is the American responsibility to
keep peace and love evident in the
eastern hemisphere," declared
Priestley.
Picturing America as the land
of security in a world of tur
moil, Priestley complimented
America for her stabilizing influ
ence. "While other nations are
incessantly on edge with the po
tentialities of national combat, you
are continuing your pacifying in
fluence." WESLEY FOUNDATION

that work was necessarily halted
for three weeks because it was im
possible to get building stone.
Weather Slows Progress.
One thing which may further de
lay work is bad weather, There is
much plastering left to be done,
and this will be greatly slowed up
by cold weather. Tho the building
will not be finished by February
1, what little work will be left at
that time is not expected to inter
fere with the opening.
Meanwhile, Ray Ramsay and
Robert Simmons, jr.. of the Board

ZANZIG PREDICTS
REVIVAL OF GOOD
COLLEGE MUSIC
(Continued from Page l.l
leges, Mr. Zanzig explained. "Even
If we grant that future Kreislers
and Paderewskis cannot be ade
quately provided for there, there
is still ground for continuance of
the system. Should students be
obliged to study for the music pro
fession in outside conservatories
where there is a minimum of like
lihood of there having any rela
tions with the intellectual life of
the university? Vocational and
avocational music students should
mingle with others in a college."
Preceding Mr. Zanzig's address,
a string quartet under the direc
tion of Emanuel Wishnow pre
sented two numbers. In the quar
tet were Margaret Porter, William
Klein, Margaret Baker, and Mary
Louise Baker.
