Comes a time . .
When snow and tests turn
thougths to sunnier climes
By Agnes Wanek.
There comes a time when the
snow is on the ground, and a
young man's thoughts are south
ward bound. When you think about
it, a quick trip to Florida wouldn't
be hard to take at this point. This
is the time when you begin to envy
people like Ralph Bristol, Paul
Brown, and Bruce Duncan, who
managed to take a short trip to
Mexico City recently. But... day
dreams don't help, not with a cou
ple of six weeks tests ahead.
FATAL CHARM
must be a part of Kappa Mary
Beeson's attraction, since she set
a new high Monday night when
ten Sigma Nus, no less, came to
the Kappa house to see her.
SIGMA NUS'

Saturday, alumni luncheon and a
fraternity banquet Saturday night
at the Cornhusker.
HOW TRUE
is the rumor that Pi Phi Virginia
Haney and Harold Schrag are go
ing steady every other night? This
fall Ginny was seen around with
Butch Luther, DU, who now has
his pin on Kappa Marion Bowers,
and the Beth Howley-Schrag com
bination was definitely on the up
swing. Tlje question now, is where
does all this leave Phi Delt Al
Ashworth who has gone with Vir
ginia for years and years.
THE AFFAIR
between Max Wieland and A.O.
Pi Pat Rosenbaum is doing all
right these days, since it was not
so long ago that they first started
dating. They now have a standing
date for Saturday nights.
CAMPUS NOTES:
Bill Williams, Phi Delt, has an
nounced that he is going to have
his third date of the year... won
