DAILY NEBKASKAN THREE ffiCiaaiNi:. wis: A(G (CAMIPUJS FRIDAY, APRIL 21, 19.J9 Engineers booEt Mullins Southern band to play at NU dance April 28 From south of the Mason-Dixon line to the Union ballroom for the annual Engineers' ball Friday, April 28th, comes a band with a southern accent, the "Southern Gentlemen" under the direction of Grady "Moon" Mullins. Known to Nebraskans as "Moon" Mullins band for their playing at the Music Box in Omaha, the band returns to Ne braska to play for the engineers. They boast of five solo singers, a trio, a featured electric guitarist, whom they claim is one of the best in the country, a comedian and a glee club. Their musical specialties range from concert music to popular dance music, musical novelties and suppertime swing. The ball is the first event of the annual engineers' week which in cludes engineers open house, April 4 and 5. On these nights special exhibits for public inspection are prepared by the various engineer ing colleges. All engineers who refu.se to participate are dunked in a tank prepared for that purpose in the hydraulics laboratory. Walton calls gossip form of substitute gratification' Envy, wishful thir.kinq listed as 'talk' causes "A certain phi was telling mo that so and so .saw it happen," and With those few wnnlu niirt nf I h. ' 4 j. ...... , . -.ifkt juii-ii-Ni mi ni gossip may eo sinned. Dr. w. K. Walton vt the psychology department defines gossip us. "a low form of .substi tute giatification." But back in the days of Bill Shakespeare a gossip was consid ered a friend. It seems that today a friend is supposed to be too loyal to talk against his pal - at least when the pal is within hear ing distance. The best tales are always told in friendly little "bull sessions" when any thoughts of stepping on a missing member's toes are for gotten, and even roommates may be laid on the table for a complete diagnosis.

'! .re"1?11;!;: Grill chums chew gum, deposit some Gum in a ball. Prized by Julian Byres, grill manager as the under the table accumulation from post Christmas crib diners. A pound of chewing gum, a fourth of which was thoughtlessly destroyed was scraped from un der the grill tables during the spring cleanup. Averaging 16 sticks well chewed and wadded un der each table, the total gum de posits amounted to about 640 sticks, during the three month period since Christmas. Were these sticks to be placed end to end, a line of gum 160 feet in length could be stretched the length of the Union. "But," an en ergetic chewer suggested, "once a stick is watered down it can be stretched one, two or possibly three yards, or sufficient to make a border around the campus." Engineer's inspection trip refunds available Refunds on transportation de posits made by students who went on their annual engineer's inspec tion trip to Kansas City are now available at the finance office, ac cording to an announcement by Prof. H. J. Keener, chairman of the inspection trip committee. Dr. Walton says that a gossiper is invariably a maladjusted person ivho.?e stories of others are really wishful thinking. He is envious of that person and would truth fully be very glad to be doing just what he criticizes so severely. The "catty-critic" first relates the name of a person and then pro ceeds to build certain isolated facts on the tale, being unable to fur nish the exact source for the in formation. In China the written symbol for gossip is a figure of three women under an umbrella, although today just two women or men minus the umbrella are necessary for the be ginning of some juicy fabrications. Dr. Walton further declares that the gossiper fabricates a story de scribing the kind of behavior which he imagines the victim of his gossip to be doing, and which he would like to be doing if he had the nerve.

Student aviation training to open New York U course requires solo-flying NEW YORK, N. Y. (I.P.). New York University students have started flight training under the Civil Aeronautics Authority student-training program. In addi tion to the flying instruction, the program will include courses in meterology, navigation, and civil air regulations. The course will be concluded by the end of June at which time the students will have completed 40 hours of flying, approximately half of which will be solo-flying. The minimum flight requirements will require each student to have had 35 hours in the air, 17 of which will be dual and 18 solo. At the conclusion of the courses the students will receive private pilot's certificates. In order to maintain these certificates, a mini mum of 15 hours of flying each year will be required.
