The so-called social scene is
still in the process of shifting...
if we're not careful nostalgia will
set in like rigor mortis . . . just
think, no more exchange dinners
...the DU's and Alpha Thi's and
Tri Delts and Phi Gams got to
gether for food last night for
about the last til the spring thaws
but we were weeping crocodile
tears. . .just think, everything will
freeze up and people will be slip
ping about more formally...
Speaking of freezing up... Stan
Truhlsen, Sig Nu, is plenty cool
where Ruth Haney, KKG pledge
is concerned. . .she cooly broke
ball and Pigge Dinner dates
Butch Wcitmann's SAE influence
. . .So Stan's searching for a spon
sor for his company and a girl
who'd know how to be true blue
for Sigma Nu. . .
The Acacias are smoking or
maybe they've finished the cigars
off by now - but anyway Val Klep
pinger hung his pin on a David
City lass and passed the antici
pated cigars. . .
Spike Spilker, Delta Sig, is im
porting a chum for week-end after
next... and its being rumored
about that when she packs up to
go home she may probably be
packing a Delta Sig pin. . .
The Sigma Nu's are all happy
over the approaching Pigge Din
nereven S. Truhlsen forgot his
woes and disillusionments when
he raptly discribed the pigge the
lads are preserving for the occa
sion . . .
The Fiji's are really applying
themselves and every evening the
music that issues from the Phi
Beta Sigs win
yearbook in day
In a period which extended just
a little over 30 hours of actual
contest time, the Beta Sigma Psi's
won the rifiht to a free Corn
husker in the latest round of the
picture taking contest.
It went something like this. The
houses which had not yet had all
their members photographed were
divided into four groups by con
, test manager Bob Rydman, in the
hope that better results would be
obtained. The starting day of the
new contest was set as Monday,
with the new contest extending
until next Wednesday.
The result was astounding. By
5 p. m. Tuesday the Beta Sip's
notified the Cornhusker office
that their members had been pho
tographed to a man.
Gam house can be traced down to
practice for their big Christmas
serenade, which is sort of a tra
dition. . .
That Betty Angle-Cecil Eloe
combination is getting might fre
quent . . . and say, something we've
been languidly languishing to
know is whether the Al O'Conner
Mary Larkin steady deal is or is
not. . .Fiji-Pi Phi pledge coupling,
as it were. . .nothing new but
stronger and stronger is getting
that Johnny May-Mable Secund
deal... Phi Delt-ChiO.

prints theses
Now plan saves money
for doctoral candidates
Church notes
Newman Club, Catholic student
organization, is sponsoring a hobo
party tomorrow night at 8:30 in
the CYO hall, 18th Hnd J.
Wesley Foundation, Methodist
student organization, will hold one
of its Friday Friendlies at 7:30
p. m. tomorrow in the Methodist
Student house, 1417 R.
For the first time the graduate
college has published summaries
this year of & number of doctoral
theses in a book entitled AD
straets of Doctoral Dissertations."
Costing each doctoral candidate
$25, publication by the college
greatly lowers the amount of
money required for each student
to print his own thesis. It likewise
supplies 25 copies to the library.
Under the new plan inaugurated
by Harold W. Stoke, "former dean
of the graduate students, the col
lege publishes and places in the
library copies of the volumes con
taining all abstracts written dur
ing the year. Library officials
mail to other colleges a number
of the books.
Advisers of candidates whose
abstracts appear in the volume re
ceive one copy. Candidates them
selves are given 25 reprints of
their abstracts. Price of each vol
ume is $2.50.

stop Shumate's
taxation lecture
An alarm clock set off by a
mischievous prankster caused an
uproar in Professor Charles Shu
mate's political science lecture
yesterday. The clock, hidden un
der a pile of coats on the front of
the auditorium platform, went off
about 1:30.
Professor Shumate stopped his
lecture on taxation until the-
clock had almost run down. He
then picked up the clock and put
u in his pocket, declaring that the
c!ock would be returned if the
owner would claim it at Shumate's
office. "At first," the professor
told the class, "I thought it was
my watch, but I've had this watch
for 20 years and it never has
acted this way before."
