Alliteration ...
"Martin, Barton, and Fish!"
Those three names make up one of the ruont humorous phraw ever put
into a political campaign. President Roosevelt ha used them in two Rjicechc
now, with good effect. The nice thing about uning them is that they help to
drive home a lot of truth behind them, the truth of what some av is the
republican campaign theory ... to promise now and act later according to
what will serve the republican party, jnst am the O. O. P. haw done whenever
it has been elected during the course of this generation.
The congressional voting record of republicans during the HtMweveH admin
istration is the strongest fact from the record which democrats can ne to
attack the republican party. And when at a time like this, the record means
w) much, that republican voting record Itnuns important, even ominous, on th
political homon.

Hamlet's soliloquy college ver-
lon: . 1V .
To study or not to study that
is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind
to suffer
The slings and arrows of raging
teachers,
Or to take arms against a sea
of assignments,
And by opposing get them. To
go out tonight to have fun;
And by kicking the gong around
to say we end the heartache and
thousand natural shocks a stu
dent's flesh Is heir to 'tis a con
summation devoutly to be wished.
To go out; to have fun; perchance
to flunk out! Ay, there's the rub;
For after a night of frolic what
grades may come when we have
shuffled through this semester
must give us pause: there's the
respect that makes calamity of
chool life;
For who would bear the scorns
of parents, the reader's wrongs,
the fellow-student's contumely,
When he himself mirht his av
erage make with a little midnight
oil-burning ?
Thua conscience doth make
scholars of us all part of the
time, anvwav:
And thua the native hue of
dating
Is sicklied o'er with the pale
rnst nf thou eh t:
And good times of great pith
and moment,
With this regard, their currents
turn awry.
And lose the name and phone
number of action.

Patterson back from East
Attends national YM meeting
Dr. C. H. Patterson, associate
professor of philosophy, and chair
man of the YMCA advisory board,
has just returned from Pittsburgh
where he attended the annual con
vention of the national council of
YMCA as delegate from the West-
Central area.
Recently Dr. Patterson's aspira

ON ADJUSTMENT.
From
Blair, Nebr.
Via Carrier Pigeon.
Dear Chris:
Am writing to you from a man
hole on Main street where I am
engaged in watching green turtles
knit mittens for Congo war refu
gees. As my labors stopped for a
moment, I contemplated.
Now that you re back at "state,
have you noticed that girls with
figures lush always manage to get
the super-rush from the upper
class of males? And It is clear
that this enaU hardships on such
guys as me. There are undoubt
edly many who would agree it
would be much nicer if all the
homely gals were the ones who
got the play from these boys who
have hay.
If they would use their Pack
ards, Cords, Dusenbergs and brand
new Fords, mostly Fords, on the
girls that I can t see, this would
clear the way for me to go step
ping out with feramea that I now
consider gems.
On the other hand if we were
as abnormal as could be and our
ideas as to class were vice versa
to the mass, then I could be going
for the creatures that the other
guys abhor.
Failing then to change the race,
I feel that this will be the case
I'll probably end up being a psy
chopath, one of the many crea
tures of God's wrath.
There is, in short, a need for re
adjustment.
Yours In a manhole,
Sir Will Cappis,
Cor. at Large.

YM has been doing, and its rela

up to study functions of the stu

sities. To aid in study of the local sit

to our campus by Dr. Clarence
Shedd, director of religious educa

is known as the historian of stu

Astronomy class
meets at 4:30
Saturday morning
Students accustomed to grum
bling loud, long- and noisily every
time they get up for an eight
o'clock should have seen the ener
getic astronomy students as they
eagerly hurried to the dome on
ag campus at 4:30 a. m. Saturday
to take a look at the stars. Despite
the fact that attendance is volun
tary 25 percent of the class could
not resist the desire to see the
early morning sky. As a reward
(for their getting upness) uve
early risers saw Venus, Jupiter
and four of its satellites, Saturn
rings and the last quarter of the
moon.
Prose magazine
offers new idea
in English book
AUSTIN, Tex. (ACP). Fresh
men students of English can now
reach for a magazine instead of
a textbook.
Designed in illustrated magazine
form, the Freshman Prose An
nual hailed by publishers as the
first new idea in textbooks in 15
years was edited by Drs. Mody
C. Boatright, University of Texas
Robert M. Gay, Simmons college
Boston, and George S. Wykoff,
Purdue, Lafayette, Ind.
Material is grouped under five
sections, college life, problems of
social adjustment, democracy and
war, science, and art literature
all illustrated with snapshots, car
toons and masterpiece reproduc
tions.
The magazine-text, introduced
this fall, is already in its second
printing.
Dear Editor:
Dear Editor:
Who would have imagined that
revelations would arise from on
entation lectures 7 Believe it or
not, they do. Just read this.
"Of the 1938 Freshman class
over 50 percent had not, upon
entering school, had a date," says
Dr. William Gregory of the psy
cology department Think of it,
50 percent! Our high schools are
failing in their matchmaking
ability.
Certainly the University of Ne
braska need not be too proud of
itself for in that same year, ac
cording to Dr. Gregory, there were
numbers of graduating seniors
who after four years of college
had not had a date.
But perhaps things are looking
up. One finds comfort in reading
the wealth of encouraging mate
rial which graces Jo Duree's "So
cially Speaking." Keep up the
good work kids.

Once a week for the past three weeks, the DAILY survey department,
directed by Ralph Sherman Combs, a Willkie man, has published its results.
Mr. Comba' political preference, we are sure bad nothing to do with the
results published. Those results, incidentally, are overwhelmingly in Willkie'u
favor ... and we still think Mr. Oonilw did everything honestly.
But to get to the point, the DAILY is sponsoring one final poll; we lIe
it arouses enough interest to get everyone to vote. We feel that a sample of
from 300 to 400 students, cut as it is into ratio and samples of various
colleges, is not large enough to represent closely enough the true trend of the
eampnR or the preference in the colleges. The DAILY" final poll, which will
run fromthis morning until Monday afternoon, gives every student the opr.
tunity to include his choice.
