Today is Alpha Chi Omega
day!
Well, Rita Hist. Alpha Chi
pledge, pot her feet back on the
ground this week. Prank-playing
activities have consistantly raided
her wardrobe during the current
days and have confiscated all her
shoes. The only factor that kept
her from going to class a la no
shoe3 is the fact that she . had a
pair stowed away in Grant Me
morial. But those were only the
usual canvas gym-class variety
and have as much beauty as a two
cent stamp has flavor.
Personally, we'll be waiting for
the formal this weekend and like
wise, Miss Uist's appearance. Her
sisters must be n buncn of heels
and have no soul to pull a trick
like that. Wc think they should
bo given a good lacing and made
to toe the mark.

It seems the Greeks are doing
as the Romans did, for the gals
who wear the lyre, as all the
others, have their romances, fore
most of which is an infernal tri
angle among Betty Stewart, Alpha
Chi; Paul Munson, D, U., and Phil
Sutton, Farm House.
Pin hangings of that house in
the offing includo Bob Marquist,
Sig Chi, and Alice Svoboda. An
other is that of Bob King, Sigma
Nu, and Sally White. Elwood Fan
konin owes the gals over there
smokes and sweets because of
Dclors Bors, so they say.
Thoora Nye, the- Alpha Chi with
the fiery thatch, is still another
to whom tho ferns down that way
look to for the perfunctual choco
lates, but with Dick Fisher, her
Pi K A lovo in Ked Cloud, she
has taken up knitting.
Ruth Minor (take our personal
recommendation) is cligiblo again
as Howie Fisher is now going
steady with law school. In other
words, Ruth is "barred."

A Gamma Phi Beta this time.
Rachael Aldrich, an upperclass
man of that club, has just hung
up an all time record for which
she will be awarded a complete
set of cellophane window shades.
She, so they tell us, has dated no
less than 15 Sig Eps. The present
Interest is Julian Bors. It's a case
of 15th down and S8 to go.

Over at tho Chi Omega house
there have been some strange go
ings on. Nightly Magaret Jayne
Pyle has been called by Dick
ciark, Phi Delt. Dick, each time,
claims he was informed that she
had called him, but each time
Marg denies it. Very queer. We
say "very queer," because wc
can't think of anything else to
say,
In Doc Winibcrly's English 212
course yesterday he called the roll
(so you ;,ee it is no pipe? i. He
came upon the card of Fern Steu
tcville, half of the Alpha Xi Delt
two-peas-in-a-pod twins.
"Fern Steutevillc," he called.
"Here," answered the twin and
raised her hand.
Tne Prairie Schooner pater pro
ceeded on down the roll and a
few moments later came to Mary's
card.
"Mary Steutevillc.''
"Here," retorted Mary, holding
up her hand.
You don t nceii two earns, Miss
Steutevillc," commented Wimberly
Innocently.
That is all.
Tri Dells will find Tri Delt news
under Hauntrcss Cockle's column.
BY THE IIAUNTKESS
As some of the hierarchies of
the Daily Ncbraskan staff have
preferred to demote, nic from the
society department, to rank of
hauntrcss, the haunting continues
and this lime strikes first at the
Sigma Chi house where wc find
one of the fellows spending two
hours on the telephone iu vain at
tempt to reach his lady fair of the
week end. After much expended
effort, said Sigma Chi proceeds to
convey the message via postal
telegraph. We'd always thought
that telegrams were something im
portant like word from home con
cerning overdrawn allowances ant!
such.
While on the subject of tele
grams, we might let you m on a
very special one received by one
of the members of Delta Oopsiloh
last week. It seems that the D. U.
in question had been going rather
consistently with a Tn-Delt when
all of a sudden he decided to give
some of the other worthy gals a
break, so he whipped out with a
blonde queen to one of the formals.
When the young man arrived
at the house, a telegram awaited
him bearing the following: "How
do I rate in your study book after
your first heat with the Blond?
Am I runner-up or also ran ? and
this was signed "The Dark Horse."
Rather racy conversation, that.
You can always tell a fraternity
or sorority pledge about this time
of year by the worried expression
on "his or her countenance which
will probably not be wiped off un
til after initiation. It all started
during exams when those who
had to make an 80 or a 72 or
whatever the case might be took
on that do-it-or-die attitude. Now
there are ever so many post
mortems to be indulged in by
even the best of pledges, for who
knows what teacher will do in one
of her more cruel moments, and
they all have them I guess.
Anyhow, the first person I met
on my sleuthing for nonplussed
freshmen was Sig Alph Jimmie
de Wolf who confessed rather
sadly that the only thing he
learned last semester (and this
is not to be underrated) is what
women wear under their ski siiits.
Most of us could have told him
that in a few words at the be
ginning of the year and saved a
lot of time and energy.
Beta Bob Kube seemed not in
the least perturbed with the im
pending disaster, but cheerfully
countered that there was always
next semester, which is the right
attitude at this stage of the game,
when shiny apples faze not the
most receptive instructor.
We must congratulate Tri Delt
Flora Albin and Billle Gray of
Delt fame on the avoidance of
eminent disaster one night last
week. They were invited to a wed
ding so Flo called a friend to find
out where the event was to be
staged (this ten minutes before
the affair of course). The friend
directed them to the Congrega
tional church. The wedding, how
ever, turned out to be at the First
Presbyterian.
Later the friend discovered that
the Congregational church was to
be the scene of another wedding,
so everyone suffered qualms at the
thought of Flora and Billic sitting
through! a strange wedding, and
knowing those two, that's about
all that could bo expected. But
miracles will happen, and this time
Flo happened to meet someone else
also bound for the Presbyterian
which set them on the right track.
Speaking of weddings, did it
ever seem a coincidence that Miss
Polly Gellatcly married an engi
neer named "Fonda Rock." An
even better pun might be made on
Marian Byrd's father's name,
which is "Forres Byrd" and he a
nursery owner.
See you tonight at the Thi Psl
and Acacia formals and tomorrow
evening at the Tri Delt party. And
if you must hang on chandeliers,
do it discreetly.
