THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
Society ed decides . . .
Something lacking in Spring
for there are no serenades
By Agnes Wanek.
Everybody will admit that
spring has sprung' and has been
sprung' for sometime, but it ap
pears that something is lacking
from the usual romantic atmos
phere of a college campus. It's
not pinhangings because there are
plenty of them to Hear about and
it isn't picnics, formats or Sunday
night suppers; it isn't Ivy Day be
cause that's coming. Ask any ten
girls and they will say the answer
is serenades. OK, boys, where
have they been? The only sere
nades heard this spring occurred
when the ATO's, Phi Gams, DU's
and a few others serenaded the Al
pha Chis .when their province con
vention met here not long ago. So
it seems that the crusade for the
week is more and better serenades.
THE 'OLD GUARD'
is at last surrndering to the on
slaught of spring... and love...
and things. Fiji Marvin Thomp
son, who long has been a dyed-in-the-wool
anti-dater, is succumbing
to the influence of spring. Since
the organisation of the Friendly
Five (you remember, they're the
boys who all date in the same
house on the same weekend) Bub
has fallen into line. And speaking
of falling, they say that he really
is falling for AOPi Kay Hanley. If
the pace keeps up, they'll have to
change the name of the club to the
Friendly Four.
WAY WAY DOWN
SOUTH
are the thoughts of DG Gerry Wal
lace these days since she received
an appointment to work in New
Orleans. For weeks she waited
and waited for the postman. Each
day she smiled less until one day
last week, the good news came and
since thr-n she's been smiling all
the time. Congratulations.
DON'T HOLD YOUR
BREATH
while you lead thHt Sigma Chi
Bill McKerney and Theta Barbara
York are oiue again on the steady
list, because no one knows how
long it will last. But the old or
der changes, and mayle this is the
real thing.
IT'S TOO BAD
but because of the rain and gen
erally unfaxorable weather, the
monumental Fiji-Tau Tussle has
been postponed for a few weeks.
So it look &s if we will have to
wait until May 25 to find out who
will be in possession of the great
Golden Goli!oon for the next year.
IVY DAY EVE
will be the occasion when Larry
Clinton bi ir.gs his famous band to
the Coliseum for the Student Un
ion birthday party. Sigma Kappas
Gcraldine Hubbard and Betty Jo
Lehman will be there with Chi Phis
Virgil Blumhorst and Don Hagen.
They'll go to dinner beforehand.

ones.
Crimson robed Innocents walk
among the eligible males who are
scattered over the greensward, se
lection being signified by tackling
of the candidate, 'making him an
Innocent as soon as he hits the
dirt.
Innocents were nominated by
the university men at the Ivy Day
Orator-Innocents election April 18,
and Mortar Board nominees were
selected by university women at
the May Queen election March 19.
The Ivy Day program will be
opened by the interfraternity sing,
featuring male choruses from sev
eral fraternities, starting at 9
a. m. Entry blanks have been
issued to the various fraternities
by Kosmet Klub and are to be
filed by Monday at 5 p. m. Each
fraternity may use 25 men, in
cluding Uie director, but in aldi
tion may use an accompanist.
Delta Upsilon is defending its last
year's championship and seeks a
second clasp on the trophy cup.
which becomes the premanent
property of any fraternity winning
it lor three consecutive years.
Judging for both the interfra
ternity sing and intersorority sing
will be made on the basis of gen
eral excellence of the participant's
efforts rather than on technical
perfection. Taken into considera
tion, however, will be the appear
ance of the group, selection of
song, tone quality of the voices,
balancing of parts, and interpre
tation as shown in style, attack
and diction.
At 10:15 Bryce Smith will de
liver the Ivy day oration, his first
public apearance since his election
April 18. The morning program
will close with the planting of Ivy
and recessional of the May Queen.
Intersorority sing will open the
afternoon program with eleven
choruses from as many sororities
singing for a silver cup. which,
for the past three years, has been
won by Kappa Alpha Theta and
which will be on display until
Thursday in Long's bookstore. In
order of their appearance they are
