rough going for some of you. I've heard that many of the men
are about to back out of the engagement after reading about their

Gamma Phi's are celebrating with
their annual formal. Their parties
are always fun, and this being
one of the first of the season heads
our "must" list
AS JOHNISY SEES IT
It's only fair to let you in on
what the pace-setters, our twelve
Mortar Boards, have planned for
the evening. First, there arc those
stritcly individualists who dare to
challange convention and ask a
third party to the affair. Jane
Barbour will be with that Howell
man. Johnny, even though she
didn't take "in the Ball with our
hero. Jane Walcott sets sail with
Sigma Nu Page Townley Instead
of Paul Amen the guy what took
her last week, and Marie Kotouc
who never did believe in the sys
tem is giving her Ball date a run
for his money in favor of Delt,
Billie Sawtell. What have the
Dclt's got that other fellows don't
seem to have?
Silver Grapes, White Roses.
Betty Cherny will be there with
SigmaChi Frank Coufal. who she
Is taking to dinner at the Corn
huskcr. Later she plans to to join
Floise Benjamin who's bringing
Dean Kerl and Marty Morrow and
Harold Conrot, and Rosalie Motl
with Yale Wiggert. The four of
them are having corsages made
up of silver grapes with lilies of
the valley for the three Kappa
Sig's and white roses for Frank.
These will be enhanced with long
streamers of red and green ribbon,
the Kappa Sig colors. They do in
tend carting their dates there in
just an ordinary car though.
Maxine Durand, president of
that there organization, will bs
doing the party with A. T. O. Bud
Lampcrt and plans to treat him to
a real he-man meal at Hotel Corn
husker. Winifred Nelson, who also
knows the way to a man's heart,
will escort her date, Paul Zeis, to
dinner too. Genevieve Bennett and
Donna Hiatt are double dating and
have cooked up something clever,
but couldn't find out just what it
was. Don't know whom Jean Mar
vin is taking either.
Dinner en Masse.
Just to show that their hearts
;ire In the right place, the Chi
f'mega's plan a dinner for 62 at
the house. Decorations are to be
something extraordinary, and they
say they might even give dime
store compacts to each guest. The
Alpha Chi's are giving one of
those yearly affairs at the house
which sounds plenty O. K. din
ner with dancing between courses.
The whole chapter's turning out
for the occasion.
The Alpha Phi's are going high-1

silly, so their men will dine in
style a la Schimmel. The tables
will be set for six. Centerpieces j
consist of corsages for the girls ;

Alpha Sigs not only have a very
excellent cook at their house but
she also serves as the frat Mary
Lane. Don "the blusher" Wagner
received a bit of advice from her
the other day. She told him that
the first year in school Freshmen
were good, the second year they
smoke; the third year they drink;
the fourth year they do "most
anything." Don was telling a girl
about the cook's speech. In
nocently she asked: "Are you one
of those who do "most anything?"
Whereupon Don turned dark red
and nearly ripped out three booths
in the Moon getting to the door.
That reminds me of author
Robert Benehley's summary of a
college education. That writer,
who seems to be an authority on
college life, gives us the total of
knowledge gained each year. First
year: Charlemagne was crowned
in 800. Second year: No good
smoking unless you inhale. Third
year: Scotch is darn good whiskey.
Better than rye. fourth year
Scotch is supreme.
Just a parting word of advice:
Don't eat more than a bowl of
Wheaties today. Steaks at the
Cornhusker are an inch and a
quarter thick and seven and
three-eighths inches square.
Cathedral Christmas Trip
Postponed for Lack of
Engagements.
Forced by the lack of a suf
ficient number of engagements
during the trip, Lincoln's Great
Cathedral choir today regretfully
cancelled its holiday swing back
east. The statement was made
yesterday by Choir Director John
M. Rosborough in response to the
invitation issued by the Waldort
Astoria hotel in New York.
Altho the Ford Sunday evening
hour and several other important
appearances were assured, more
were needed to insure the finan
cial success of the trip. At the
suggestion of Lucius Boome.'
president of the hotel, the group is
now making tentative plans for
a similar trip during the Easter
recess.
Past Trips Successful.
During the last two Christmas
seasons, the choir has made sue
cessful appearances in the nation's
metropolis as well as in other
eastern cities. In 1935. it partici
pated in the president's Christmas
tree lighting ceremony at Wash
ington and sang in the cathedrals
and concert halls of Chicago,
Pittsburgh, and Cleveland. Its
1936 trek confined appearances to
New lork and immediate vicinitv.
At all times the group has been
received with acclaim by music
critics and audiences alike.

Husker Trackmen Says Good
Dancers Don't Think
About Sex.
Thirty-two reasons why dancing
is not only harmless but advan
tageous are presented by a stu
dent. Fred Koch, in response to
the "Forty Reasons Why 1 on't

Carl Bassett and reprinted in the
Daily Nebraskan on Wednesday,
Dec. 8.
1. People who dance take more
baths than they would other
wise. 2. Dancing keeps people from
indulging in other more harmful
amusements, such as card play
ing. 3. The popularity of dancing
furnishes jobs for many young
musicians to earn a living be
fore they are ready to go on the
concert stage.
4. If it weren't for dancing,
fraternities and sororities would
have to give scavanger parties
and nobody's property would
be safe.
5. If it weren't for dancing,
the people who make evening
clothes would have to go on relief.
6. Dancing trains our athletes
to relax.
7. Dancing furnishes good
physical exercise for partici
pants. 8. Nobody considers dancing
harmful.
9. Lindbergh and Babe tuth
dance.
10. Dancing wears out shoes
and keeps industry going.
11. If it weren't for danSing
the military department couldn't
rent horses for their parades.
12. If it weren't for dancing
the Betas would all quit school.
Hence dancing is good because it
serves as an impetus for young
people to educate themselves.
13. Good dancers never think
about sex anyway.
14. How would Fred Astaire and
Eleanor Powell make a living T
15. If it weren't for dancing,
there wouldn't be any Prom,
hence no Prom committee.
16. A man can embrace a girl
while the orchestra plays, but if
he did it when the orchestra
stopped playing, it would be
wrong.
17. Dancing increases liquor
sales, thus giving the govern
ment more taxes to help people
that need help,
18. Dancing has frequently
been used as a last but success
ful means of ruining a girl when
all other methods fail.
19. The dance has a secret
language, by which the man can
silently learn if the girl In his
arms is pure or not, without one
word being uttered.
20. The attraction of the
dance is the thrill of the em
brace that is permitted nowhere
else in decent society.
21. The words "God" and
"Hell" are used frequently
while dancing.
22. Dancing is the only amuse
ment in the world that depends
for it existence upon the ming
ling of the sexes.
23. A date who dances is
worth ten dates who don't
dance.
25. I like to dance, don't you 7
26. They teach dancing In
school, so It must be alt right.

have good morals.
Some University Students
dance.
Therefore, all who dance
have good morals.
28. There is nothing in the
Magna Charta or the Declara
tion of Independence against
dancing.
29. Nor the Gettysburg ad
dress, either.
30. All the Phi Psi's dance.
31. So do the Delta Gams
and the Thetas.
