Well, hello Jim ... the third
page has come into the fourth
quarter and we give you social
smatterings from a sports ed . . .
Oh happy day ... a multitude
of happy things persist in happen
ing. Say, like contemplating the
DAILY'S party . . . this idea of
the staff munching a Capital buf
fet and then Turnpiking sounds
fine . . .
Speaking of fine, we think that
little ruling of the Phi Psi's . . ,
they have a national edict that the
lads can only put out a sweetheart
pin, something about only mem
bers wearing the other badge.
Lois Scofield has about reached
the penny-flipping stage as to
whether she likes ATO Bob Davi3
or DU Don Young to a greater
degree ...
SGE, geological honorary,
smoked cigars after the last meet
ing . . . Elliot Bratt announced
his marriage to Lorene Bowen...
Sigma Nu's had fun last night
at one of those "Welcome home,
alums" affairs . . . Bill McGaffin
breezed in from war-torn Europe
where he's been seeing the sights
for Associated Press ... so they
banqueted him.
The Bowery Ball bids are burlap
affairs and sound pretty cagey...
one of the best deals on the cam
pus, the Acacias will probably
really be mobbed cause the Ball
is the Saturday night after the
vacation period known as exam
week . . .
It would seem that Chi O Lea
Hyland's break-up with Charlie
Mead will be the final bit of punc
tuation to their friendship ... in
spite of a daily dozen phone calls
and like strategy Lea still is ob
durate and spends her spare time
wondering who the lad is who
sends her that occasional dozens
of roses minus card . . .
By Jim Evinger
Hello. Jo Whatdayaknow?
Kinda got off on a tangent today
and starting thinking about ath
letics and the influence they hav
on women. Let's take the football
players for instance. There's a
group for you. Fine fellows all and
they have their extra-curricular
''moments." too.
There are six of the lads which
are really ball and chained. This
sextet consists of Roy Petsch of
Scottsbluff, Hank Rohn of Fre
mont. Harry Hopp of Hastings,
and three Third City lads (Grand
Island to yout by names of Clai
ence Herndon, and the Kahier
bros., Bob and Royal. Hopp and
King Kong are the proud pappas
of the lot.
Then we could go on about those
A7 . . .
with their frat pins on certain
young ladies about town. The Vis
count Francis turned his SAE
trinket over to ChiO Yvonne Cos
tello. Butch Luther lost his DU
pin and Kappa Marian Bowers
found it.
Hermie Rohrig hasn't giver,
away his SAE pin but Martha
Jane Martin is working on It.
That' an affair since Lincoln high
days. Delt Ed Schwa rtzkopf shift
ed his scenes from the Alpha Pni
house (Virginia Chambers) to the
National Guard.
Constantly together are Forric
Behm, of DU and Innocent, etc,
fame, and Kootch Groth of the
Alpha Phi Groths. Seeing more
and more of one another are Allen
Zikmund and Joanne "Link" Yy
man. What a football family those
Lymans. The old man is a pigskin
veteran from away back. Daugh
ter Link has her affections cast
all the time on footballers. The
last two years it has been Indian
Jack Jacobs, Kappa Alpha of
Oklahoma, and now Ord's Zik
mund has a Kappa torch burning
for him.
Footballers also have their
breakups. Take the case of George
Abel, Phi Delt, and Betty Ann
Nichols, another Kappa. That was
a steady affair until well, just of
late. ATO Kent Tupper has been
seen squiring her about now.
Ray Prochaska, Delt, stubbed
his toe and JoAnn Macoy, ChiO,
went swishing around with Phi
Delt Laird Fisher. This conductor
has often wondered about Warren
A If son, idol of the Chi Phi house.
He doesn't swing about too much,
but look at that record All
America n, possible movie contract,
etc. There's a real catch for some
Husker femme.
Aside from the pigskin artists
for a moment:
What ever happened to that
beautiful "friendship'1 that Sig Ep
Jack Burns and DG Elizabeth
Elias had for each other? And
seeing each other every Monday,
Tuesday. Wed.. Thurs., etc. now
are E. J. Petty, DG, and Eddie
May, DU.
Add note of note: For the bene
fit of R. Hemphill, notice that Pi
Phi Mary (ahem) Kerrigan and
SAE Walter (hmmmmmi Rundin
are now inseparable. Let's keep it
that way! Right? Right!

may not take a military attack to
ruin North America. If the totali
tarian powers get control of com
merce everywhere, we can go un
der economically. People in Great
Britain pay 47 percent of their in
comes as income tax, so you can
see what kind of taxes Americans
would have to pay if we had to
maintain defenses against the en
tire world. We can't be isolation
ists." McGaffin assumed an attitude
of reverence and respect when he
spoke of British morale. "Believe
everything you hear about Brit
ish morale, because it's perfect,
and that's not British propa
ganda," was his tribute to the
English.
Realized hopes.
Barley over thirty. McGaffin
has attained the heights every as
piring reporter hopes to attain,
and is a newspaper man deep
down. Balancing himself on one
of the unpredictable chairs in the
DAILY offices, smoking cigarette
after cigarette, and knowingly
amused at the methods of a col
lege reporter, he told, with the aid
of self-constructed diagrams, of
conditions in France, where he
was assigned from August, 1939,
until last June.
"The French," he said, were
victims of "Maginotitis." They
concentrated on defense and for
got about offensive fighting. The
real Maginot line only extended to
Luxemburg, while a thin exten
sion was built from there to the
North Sea. The French were led
to believe by the newspapers and
officials that the real line ex
tended to the North Sea. and when
the Germans broke through the
thin extension, they were so con
fused and bewildered that they
had nothing on their minds but to
flee from Paris. It was then that
their morale broke and they were
defeated.

a symbolic and expressionistic
style of production. "This will be
the big experimental production of
the season," Hunter declared.
"Key Largo" is the play which
brought Paul Muni back to New
York and the movies last year
when, given an offer to play the
lead. Muni found it too great an
opportunity to refuse. At that
time the play was produced by
Playwrights company with out
standing success.
It is one of the only two "Best
Plays of 1939-40" listed in Burns
Mantle which have been released
for production by amateur theatri
cal groups. Burns Mantle annually
lists the ten best plays of the past
season. Cast will be announced
soon.

sionately fond of details. They
worship details especially details
that have nothing to do with the
course. So nuts to Point Three.
But here's the last straw, the
crowning fiasco it says, "When
the rero hour arrives, be cool and
self-confident." Boy, that a good
one! Yeah, sure, just light up a
cigarette, take another shot of
morphine, and settle down, mak

too comfortable, while you keep Ij-

Oh, yes, I promised to tell how
I once passed a final exam. Well,

course and . . . well, you get the
idea.
