    Mary Anna says ...
Sweets, diamonds, steadies
show up in social whirl
A little pre-scason rush business
along Dan Cupid's line. At the Pi
Phi house two pledges woke the
whole dormitory Sunday night to
announce that Agnes Wanek and
Jack Nelson, DU, are now go
ire; steady. While last night the
Theta's at last got the sweets
they've been waiting for so long
from Mary Marncll and Sigma Nu
George Svoboda. Pearl Stuhr has
a reason for being finger conscious
these days. Saturday night George
Galloway, Sigma Nu, came across
with a diamond ring. The Alpha
Xi Delts toll us that Eleanor Col
lier is going steady with a new
convertible roadster suppose they
mean its owner Dave Beshore.
WARNING
to any little gal who's in the habit
of calling the Beta house. Their
second-floor telephone is right out
in the hall about as private as
the Grand Central station. Not
long ago one of the Pi Phi pledges
held a long and animated conver
sation with one of the boys, to the
amusement of half the Beta chap
ter, who were lending moral sup
port to the harassed brother,
SIG ALPHS
entertained at a buffet supper
Sunday night. Ray Timbers was
there with Tri Delt Ann Krause,
Bruce Duncan with Kappa lbs
Waugh, Jack Ray with Alpha Phi
Pat Herminghaus, Bob Martin
with Theta Marian Kidd, Bill Hin
richs with DG Louise Malm
burg and Joe Dye with Tects Tal
bot, also DG. Incidentally, one of
the Delta Gamma's told us that
Teets' beautiful romance at the
Beta house is about on the rocks
and Joe Dye seems to be very
much in the running right now.
DIE HARDS
are the Fiji's who were quite per
' turbed at the disclosure of their
Bill Hines hoax. They even re
sorted to having a lioy from Ore
gon impersonate the mythical 'so
cialite," and the whole Phi Gam
chapter is sticking to their story
so that we can't help looking at
the chapter with renewed admir
ation if only for their spunk.
PLAYBOYS
Ted Weldon, Chick Rice, Piker
Davis. Bob Aden and Dick Doty
drove out to south Lincoln Sunday
in Piker's model A to have a bit
of fun in the snow. They found a
long hill and proceeded to coast
..dr-n.; "skidding through puddles
and over inches -Rnd 'having a
marvelous time. What they didn't
know was that a cruiser car had
been sitting at the top of the hill
all this time. So Monday Piker
enrolled in a new course traffic
school.
Stewart, Turkcl
meet Kaoisans
in four debates
Frank Rickel and Merrill Peter
son of Kansas State university met
Jack Stewart and Harold Turkel
of Nebraska in a series of four
non-decision open form debates
Thursday. The premise of the se
ries was that the United States
should follow a policy of strict
isolation from all belligerents out
side or the western hemisphere.
Rickel, of Kanr.is State, took
the affirmative aginjt Stewart,
of Nebraska, in the first debate
at 9:00 a. m. in Andrews Hall.
Stewart and Turk" I defndd the
premise in (lie v.nd debate
against Rickel and Peterson at
10:00 a. m. At 12 00 noon the
group met at the Optimist Club
luncheon at the Lincoln hotel, with
Stewart and Turkel again taking
the affirmative. In the list of the
series, at Lincoln High School,
Rickel and Petcrwon took the af
firmative. The teams were coached

Valentine's day
brings tokens
to sweethearts
Again comes the time of year
when people can be affectionate
without being maudlin. Yes, you
guessed it. it's Valentine Dav.
Every magazine in February
euner nas L.incom, Washington or
Valentine's Dav featured on its
cover. In one of the more popular
women s magazines we find hats
which are huire red felt hat made
in the shape of a heart. Cute, we'd
say, Dut ratner impractical, in
some cases, after Feb. 14. Another
magazine features another big red
heart, not a hat this time, but an
accessory to a pin haninc.
For that ever present necessity
of present-giving on this day, there
are many suggestions. If we ex
pected a present, we think that
we a 311st arop a hint about a
lovely little necklace of painted
wooden hearts strung on a leather
thong. Or there are bracelets made
of anchored hearts, silver hearts
strung on chains, or hearts made
into lockets. In truth, vou can
now keep somebody in your heart
wun one or mese.
The least ingenious can always
give that present which is easiest
to find and sure to please, a big
heart-shaped box of candy.
If St. Valentine wouldn't he sur
prised at what his little habit of
sending greetings to friends on
February 14 has come to, we miss
our guess.
