THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
With final issue society reporters dedicate
column to social would be's, has beens, etc.
By Mary Jean McCarthy
and Agnes Wanek.
There's an old saying that all
good things must come to an end,
but good or bad, this is the last
time you will read about the com
ings .and goings of our socialites.
And for the first time, we will
make a dedication of this column
...to those future society writers
and those future society doers,
the would-be's, the has-beens, and
soon-to-be's. Maybe we've exag
gerated stories of engagements,
candy passings, steady deals, may
be we've been wrong, maybe we've
been right, but whatever we've
done, it has been because we
thought you'd like to read it. If
feelings have been hurt, we re
sorry, and if you've been amused
we're glad. In any case this is the
end. And as all endings are sad,
' if you'll pardon the sentimental
ity, we regret the passing of an
other year, a year which has been
fun for all and all for fun.
AT THE RACES
Midget autos at thtt, campusites
are whiling away Mieir leisure
hours of which there are too few
these days. Thetas Toddy Ben
nison and Ann beard and Sig Alphs
Bob Ludwick and Lloyd Wright
were peering through the dust at
the racers, when Betas Harry Rin-
der and Jack Hyland walked in
vith Alpha Phi Mary Fran Kier
nnrl Pi Phi Janp shaw. You mizht
also have seen Don Fitz and Harry
Pitcaithley, DU Ernie Weeks and
Daul Engelhart and Acacias Har
vey Minnick and Gordon Milligan.
HANGINGS STILL
OCCUR
. f
for our last bit of "who is it
we might mention that of Kappa
TBetty Burgess and Phi Psi Bill
ample. Will this hold together
Mfter Betty moves to Chicago?
(And the pin that Pi Phi Ann Beth
Ceith has been wea ring secretly
tor over a week, sh? is finally
wearing for all the world to see.
It formerly belonged to Delt Bob
McCampbell. Then too, Tri Delta
r
Ruthie Iverson is now flashing the
star of Sigma Nu Curt Ralston.
And over the weekend Pi Phi
Georgia Walker acquired the pin
of Beta Stan Huffman.. And for
those of you who like riddles, you
can try to guess what Kappa has
secretly been wearing a Phi Psi
shield since Christmas.
PARDON ME
IF I BLUSK
but who wouldn't, according to Phi
Gam Marv Thompson. The other
night he was getting all set to
hang his pin on AOPi Kay Hanley,
then kerplash, it wasn't there (not
Kay, the pin). It seems it got lost
in the muddle of the Tussle, but
Marv is once again wearing it. But
for how long?
TIME WAITS
FOR NO MAN
not even Sig Alph Joe Dye who
was, all set to pull the biggest sur
prise candy passing of the year
with Kappa Molly Woodward, but
at the last minute necessary ar
ticles such as candy and a plaque
were not available. Poor Sig Alphs,
noor Kappas, poor column, for this
.vould have been a fitting climax
to the caperings of Cupid.
PICNICKING
at Crete Sunday were Betty Hill
yer, Theta of last year, Florence
Moll, Alpha Phi, and Delts, Dow
Wilson and Paul Amen. Dow and
Paul tried out the water but found
it was a little cold for swimming.
THERE'S SOMETHING
ABOUT A PILOT
according to Alpha Xi Delta Dor
othy Perrin, because she has di
vided her time rather consistently
between Darrel Hayes and a fly
ing school cadet, who've both gone
into a spin over her.
CLIMAXING
the roundabout affair of Sigma
Nu Howard Marshall and Pi Phi
Marj Barnett, now of Bronxville,
New York, is the announcement
of their engagement in Omaha
and New York papers. The wed
ding will .ol-? place in the early
part of Augnst in Omaha. Jane
Wiiscn end lluth Fox will be her
soraruy s5 ste.'-bridesmaids.
THE UNEXPECTED
continues to occur... and now it
is the breakup of the romance be
tween Alpha Chi Mary Bullock
and Smith Davis. . .end we wonder
whether Sigma Chi Allen Leffer
dink will make up his mind be
tween AOPi Jane Pratt and Alpha
Chi Marion Cooper.
PINCH HITTERS
in the way of society writing were
Sigma Nu Paul Svoboda and
Kappa Sig Chris Petersen whose
efforts you read Sunday. Variety
is the spice of life, but for them
it is the end of such goings-on for
they have resigned from writing
such trivia and will henceforth
limit their work to "Scrap Irony"
and news editing.
Panhel makes rush changes;
chooses Clayton as president
Election of officers for next
year and changing rushing rules
have occupied the Women's Pan
hellenic council in its last few
meetings of the year.
New president is Jeanette Clay
ton, Sigma Kappa; and the nev

ma Delta Tau. Members of the
Panhellenic board are: Miss Hor
tense Allen, chairman; Dr. Ruth
Odell and Miss Louise Alway, fac
ulty members; Mrs. Ruth Schmel
kin, member-at-large; and Miss
Helen Hosp, dean of women.
First change in this year's so
rority rushing rules is the restora
tion of summer rushing, which
was not allowed last year. The
first three weeks in August, from
the first to the twenty-first, shall
be open for rushing. There will be
no restrictions except for a money
limit of $200. This amount applies
to all actives or alumnae sorority
members or any person assisting

There is no restriction on the
number of letters a sorority may

groups were limited to one letter
to a rushee.

until the end of rushing, Tuesday
evening, Sept. 10, all rushees will
live in the women's dormitories.
