Calx take notice
in a few weeks Nebraska will wit
ness an invasion of over 600
Stephens gills who will be on the
campus en route to Columbia, for
this is the last lap of their annual
tour. The call has pone out to all
the Nebraska lads to help enter
tain the pirls.
The Alpha Phis
started off the week right. . .right
for the actives, anyway, for this is
their courtesy week when the
pledges learn more and more about
what is in that big blue book of
Knii'y Post.
While on the subject of what's
news from sorority row we might
mention that the reason for all the
smiling pledges from the greek
houses concerns the fact that
many of the dates for initiation
have been set. Pi Phis, Alpha
Chis and Kappas will give the
girls a chance to trade in their
often lost pledge pins for shiny
new badges over the week end.
Eleven o'clock
seems an awfully early hour for a
coking date, but DG Jane Baird
and Justin Fitz seem to find it a
lot of fun. We wonder if this is a
daily occurrence, or perhaps its
just chance.
And speaking of chances, we
wonder if ATO Bill Swartz and
Sigma Chi Bill Longman are play
ing a long shot when they date
Jean Porter so much. Maybe they
don't know that she has a Delt pin
from Missouri which she Wears
most of the time. What is that old
saying about absence . . .?

Northwestern
tests 'materials
under pressure
EVANSTON, 111. (ACP). A ma
terials testing laboratory for
studying behavior of metals, con
crete, wood, plastics and other ma
terials under stress and pressure
will be established in the new tech
nological institute of Northwest
ern university.
Equipment for the laboratory
represents a part of the $900,000
worth of new machinery and
equipment to be installed in the
institute before it is completed
next fall.
One piece of equipment is a
transverse-universal testing ma
chine nearly two and one-half
stories high and capable of ex- :
erting a pressure of 1,000.000 !
pounds at the niuiaie oi a warn or
truss 55 feet long.
Cathedral Choir
siims Sullivan's
'Gladsome Light
Cathedral Choir vespers were
notable this week for the reverent
restraint with which Sullivan's
"Oh Gladsome Light" was sung.
A striking contrast was produced
by the singing of "The Lee Shore"
by Coleridge-Taylor.
The dim lights, the lighting of
the candles accompanied by a slow
movement from the "Pathetique,"
and the silent processional, pro
duced a mystic atmosphere which
formed a background for the
reverie. Ann Ender described the
symbolic discovery by Youth of
the Fountain of Sacrifice within
himself. 9

pow-wow Sunday
The annual YWCA pow
wow will be held Sunday from 4
to 8 p. m. in the Hi-Y club at the
corner of 22nd and J. The meet
ing is for students who have at
tended Estes conference and those
interested in attending sometime
in the future. N
YW and YM organizations at
Hastings, Doane, Wesleyan. Mid
land and Omaha U. have been in
vited to attend this informal get
together. Supper will be served
for 20c.
Rees Robrahn, blind student, is
taking pre-law courses at Empo
ria, Kas., Teachers college.
Acting upon an invitation of
the Harvard Historical Society of
Business, T. F. Marburg of the
economics department has written
a paper, "Aspects of Labor Ad
ministration in the Early 19th
Century."
Marburg is interested primarily
in the importance of records as
kept by business men, for histor
ical purposes. He believes that it
is necessary that every business
man keep a record in order that
trends, innovations, and develop
ments will be available for use in
the future, especially by econo
mists and business research ex
perts. Fascinating and humorous are
the human interest items which
Mr. Marburg discovered in the
records of the Scovill company,
which he used in his study. Fac
tory hands were laid off in the
spring, but this did not cause fric
tion as they utilized the time to
plant their gardens and keep their
homes in repair.
Discouraged organized labor.
Not so humorous, however, was
the attitude toward early attempts
at organized labor. If an employe
was discovered inciting workers to
organize, he was not only immedi
ately discharged, but blacklisted
so that it was impossible for him
to secure other employment.
Skilled labor was so scarce in
this country that it was necessary
for the Scovill Company to im
port it from England, but this wai
against the law and dangerous to
those agents who were sent to
England to hire men.

Lots of people
are wondering what the deal is
with Kappas Monnie Zimmerer
and Mary Ella Bennet. The man
in the case is Sigma Nu Jim Kirk
endall. Mary Ella went away down
south for this semester but came
back 'for a few days visit. The
few days extended. Monnie played
independent (she had been going
steady with Jim) and is now dat
ing the field with Beta Jim Bell
leading. Another queer mixup
also concerns sister Jeanette Zim
