Getting Your
Money's Worth
We think it's a good invest
ment. We think it's a very good
Investment. We sat down and
covered all the available scratch
paper with facts and figures,
wore down several pencils and
vur one eraser ana n an aaaea i
up to the same thing. The one
lone dollar or $1.50 that summer
students are putting into the
Student Union is about to pay
more dividends than any other
dollar or $1.50 we've seen in
vested for some time.
In the first place we veterans of
ether summers are remembering
Vividly that beaten-down feeling
that a combination of anatomy
labs and 90 degrees in the shade
can bring. And so this summer
Ve're really going to lounge in the
lounging room and browse in the
browsing library. In fact, we'd
like to register for a course in
Georgian architecture, with the
Union building for a laboratory, or
for a series of field trips through
its rooms.
Do you swim? Flay tennis?
Like to dance? Kenneth Van Sant,
social director, is almost in a po
sition to say, "Name it. We have
it." Golf, tennis, baseball, chess,
ping pong, bridge, music concerts,
kcHiies. dances, movies they're
all on the books for the summer
rt creation program. Students are
asked to fill out the questionnaires
on activities preference, so the
whole program, tournaments and
all, can get under way.
A Student Union sales talk?
No, we feel that students have
already been sold on the Union
idea at any rate they've al
ready paid their $1.00 or $1.50.
We are inviting them now to
cash in on, the investment. Or,
as Prof. T. V. Smith, "The
water of Student Union activi
ties is fine. Come on in!"

The world's largest animal,
bahichitherium, is now on dipslay
jn the University of Nebraska mu
seum. Not the whole animal, but
an artist's restoration of balu
thitherium is exhibited on the first
floor.
The behemoth's bones were dis
covered In Baluchistan, central
Asia, several years ago by the cen
tral Asiatic expedition of. the
American Museum of Natural His
tory. The University of Nebraska
museum has just received a cast of
the animal which gives an indica
tion of how this pre-historic mon
sted compared in size with a man.
The cast shows that a six foot man
reaches only slightly above the
giant's knee. Baluchitehrium tow
ers 17 feet 9 inches at the shoulder.

On the international front ten
sion eased during the past week.
England's rebuff to Hitler quieted
that gentleman down to the extent
that his Chechoslovakian ambitions
have been stilled for the moment.
An English crisis might provoke a
more aggressive stand to the
southeast by Hitler however as
, occurred when a French cabinet
' crisis allowed him to march his
troops across the Austrian border
and peacefully annex that small
defenseless nation to the reich.
In China a Japanese air raid on
Canton snuffed out 2,000 lives.
This is about one-third the regular
enrollment in the University of
Nebraska. American and English
official protests have been sent to
Japan over these repeated raids,
but evidently the Japanese feel
that they are far enough away
from these two powers and strong
enough in their own sphere that
such protests are mere words. It
has become a reality today.

Our Treeless
Desert
I had always thought a Student
Impulse ' on the subject of our
treeless campus would be absurd.
There must be a law against it,
or the place would be full of trees.
Come Maytime of every school
year the "old campus" becomes
a scene of natural beauty. Com
mon talk. Eut it is not the beauty
of the old buildings enhanced
with age. The dusty old brickpiles
are not that sort of structure. It's
the trees. The "new campus" is
nearly an eyesore by comparison.
Maybe it is intended as a symbol
of a prairie state. If so it's a
helluvanidea.
Seriously, I have a theory'. Make
money by planting trees and sav
ing grass. Suppose you have a 10
o'clock in Pharmacy, and an 11
o'clock in Morrill. With grim
pioneer determination you shun
the walks and steer straight for
Morrill. That is. if there are no
trees. With trees the trackless
(?) desert disappears, and you
amble along the walks.
Why not make the good old
pasture beautiful, and do it
cheaply. Nebraska boasts no really

beautiful set of buildings, but any
building is beautiful amidst a
plentitude of trees. What about
Pharmacy? Think of the money
spent each year to encourage grass
on the Mall and the Quadrangle,
only to suffer defeat in the an
nual anti-grass-and-pacifist cam
paign of the R. O. T. C. Anyway
think of the disappointment to
thousands of earnest horses and
cows.
What say, Nebraskan? Stir it
up. After all the spray of printers'
ink on campus issues why not dig
up the answer to this one. Do we
have to keep a sacred desert be
twen the Temple and the Coli
seum? J. H. W.
