Engineering college adds four
defense courses to curriculum
With the addition of four new
courses authorized by the United
States office of education, the
current engineering; science and
management defense training pro
gram of the college of engineering
is now being geared to furnish
trained students for technical and
managerial posts in defense in
dustries. Courses in beginning drafting
and advanced drafting will bo
open to any high school graduate
who is 17 years old or older in the
evening sessions. Another evening
course in production engineering
will be open only to persons who
have completed two years of an
engineering curriculum. Only new
daytime course will be in drafting
and shop practice, open to high
school graduates.
The new courses will be con
ducted from Sept. 29 to Jan. '?4,
1942, according to Prof. E. L..
DeBaufre, director of the univer
sity defense program, who has
complete information and applica
tion blanks for interested students.
Applicants selected Sept. 20.
Selection of applicants for the
courses is set for Sept. 20, and
Prof. DeBaufre urged that appli
cations be made early sinnce per
sonal interviews are desired.
No jobs are guaranteed upon
completion of the course, but stu
dents may obtain them individ
ually through civil service exami
nations, state employment offices
or by direct application to indus
trial firms, DeBaufre said.
Since the cost of the course is
borne by the federal government,
no university fees will be charged.
There will be a charge for text
books and drafting equipment.
Upon completion of the course,
a certificate is granted, but uni
versity credit will not be given
until students pass a special ex
amination and pay regular univer
sity fees.
Bullock designs
plan to prevent
national inflation
A new wage plan designed to
prevent inflation is proposed by
Prof. T. T. Bullock of the college
of business administration was
recently revealed by Robert P.
Vanderpool, the Chicago Herald
Tribune financial editor.
The plan would, in effect, freeze
weekly wage payments and at the
same time place workers in a po
sition to receive annual bonuses.
At the end of the year all workers
would share in excess profits on a
proportional basis.
According to Bullock, the pro
duction costs would not be af
fected "even if actual wage pay
ments, including bonuses, should
show a marked rise." To the ex
tent that costs influence prices,
therefore, this policy would not
set in motion any rising price
spiral.
As a final suggestion, Professor
Bullock says that if the wage
bonuses when received were re
invested in either government se
curities or paid out for consump
tion goods of which there was no
shortage the wage increases would
not be an inflationary factor.

THE CLOTHES LINE
CONGRATS and CONDOLENCES
with the first for 275 lovely lassies who took
unto themselves the respective ribbons of our
thirteen sororities and the last for those be
fuddled boys who will swing into three days
of back slapping and palm pumping come
this Saturday.
And meanwhile, students, deep within the
catacombs of our many halls of learning,
grim professors are wiping the dust from
their eyeglasses and whittling away at the
red pencils for the time is drawing near when
classes in readin', writin', and 'rithmetic shall
move in to plague the soul and pester the
mind.
But pass the prattle, pardner, and ponder
this parcel of pertinent information on who's
doing what mingled with communiques from
the Lincoln merchant front bearing important
news for YOU.
ALL GOD'S CHILLUN
got shoes but apparently Theta's Marge
Christensen believes she needs a spare pair
or two for we ran across her deep in con
templation, at the women's shoe counter in
Simon's. She was Iryir.g to decide on one
among four of the neatest shoe fashions to
beckon to a foot this Fall. It's not hard to
realize what a quandary she was in, for any
fair lady would like to have all four of these
selections:
Particularly attractive and promising
plenty of hard wear were the California
Moccarounds a West Coast rage embodying
a new type of moccasin design complete with
flag. These neat numbers come in tan, yel
low, and brown and are also available with
a monk strap in sherry. Price? $4.95 F. O. B.
Simon's.
And another number which would whet
the buying appetite of any shoe lover is the
Jacqueline vogue very nice with open and
closed backs and quite toeless. In this selec
tion you will find suede ties also in embossed
calf and black with its half sister Black
Bucko. The colors come in brown, blue, wine,
green and black and the price tag reads $6.05.
Definitely an eye-catcher is the new toed
spectator pump with high and medium heels.
Attractive in a large color selection ranging
from and along wine, black, blue and brown,
this shoe has a lizard trim with further
choices in antique tan and blue calf. See
these and you will want to put away $4.95
so you can have them in your shoe closet.
And around the campus, you will have
to search far and wide to find a knockabout
style that can beat the new Squaws which
arc now being featured at Simon's. This new
type of moccasin shoe features a new rro:.i
strap on the heel which is both substantiat
ing and casual. For comfort and style, try
the new Squaw now listed at only $3.93.
BETA WATCH THIS!
Beta Bob Lichty is away and now the Jim
Evinger Delta Gamma Escort Service is
underway with Jim at play. You'll see them
together here and there in Jim's big loooong
black Cadillac which the brothers of his
lodge so affectionately call "The Delta Gam
ma Hurse."
HOTWEATHER ROMEO
Kappa Sig Bill Flory proves himaelf to be
a man of foresight and deep perspective for
his summer campaign shows the following
assets: One prize Delta Gamma pledge
named Carol Robinson who hails from Water
loo completely pinned and all his'n. It's one
of these "I came, I saw, and I was con
quered" deals.
THE HEAD AHEAD
this fall will be one sporting a hat from
Gold's wide selection to be found in the
women's hat department. Milady can be well
ahead of the current fashion parade with any
one of the many many offerings at Gold's.
You'll be sure to click in classes if your on
the campus ensemble Is topped off by one of
this season's most popular numbers, the Pig
tail bonnett with a Dutch 'theme. Prim and
plenty proper is the Pigtail bonnett with its
braided pigtails finished on the end with
small bows in any color to suit the taste. The
Pigtail bonnett comes in all colors and best
of all it can be yours for only $1.49.
Classy and cocky are the new pompadour
pork-pies with their casually rolled brims.
You'll find them easily at Gold's in all colors
of the rainbow fashioned especially for the
coed from this season's popular felt.
And might we suggest that you take a tip
from Delta Gamma's new pledge, Marilyn
Griffith, who looks right nice in one of Gold's
velveteen beanies with feathers in front. You
too can have one in your wardrobe in your
own color for they come in brown, blue and
red.
Other nice numbers to keep tabbed are
crocheted stocking caps with braided tassels
in any colors, and Etonians snappy jockety
caps in brown, navy, and black.
VERA CAMERON
Pi Thi pledge, ala Omaha, Jeanie Browne,
Kappa pledge, and the hundreds of other
frosh, all of whom are sporting neat time
pieces from high school graduation are con
stant reminders of those of us who have
been here for two or three years that we
should start the school year out right with
a new timepiece or a repair job on the old
ticker. Lowell's Jewelry at 143 South 12th
can take care of that matter for you.
SOUTH CAMPUS RENDEZVOUS
for cokes and tasty meals at prices designed
especially for students is Buck's Coffee Shop,
directly across the street south from the ad
ministration building. It's here that you can
meet your friends between classes in an at
mosphere that is definitely collegiate. Put
Buck's on your MUST list for the remainder
of the year.
BIG JIM ENGLUND,
a chap you're Bure to get to know from your
coke trips to the Union grill, we've thought
o often typifies the atmosphere and pleas
antry of the whole building. Behind his milk
bar in the grill his competent service chased
by that big easy going smile of his makes
you feel that the Union is one place where
you can settle down and feel "right to home."
Incldently, the Union is making an "out
and out" bid this year to give" every student
something that suits his taste, eaters to his
interests, and is easy on the belated purse.
Special meal clubs, dances with a ten cent
gate and good music, game rooms, ping pong
room, good bocks in the Book Nook, record
ings to suit your taste In the Music Room,
tournaments of all kinds, and hundreds of
other entertainments and services are on. the
docket for you and you and you to take ad
vantage of during this coming year.
OUT IN FRONT
heading the fall fashion parade of hatwear at
the Nancee Hat Shop are the neat Dutch bon
net numbers reflecting the quaintness and
primness of Old Holland into our styles of
the day. Watch for these hats in your classes,
In the Union, and at the
games for they are fast
becoming campus fa
vorites. At the Nancee,
too, the new feathered
off the face pompadors
seemed to be especially
attractive to Theta's
Alice McCampbell. They
come in this Fall's pop
ular Black and are ideal
for day-time for date-time.
For on the campus
wear, we might suggest the casual back to
school snap brims in either Kelly or Sherry
or the new corduroy beanies with feathered
trim in all colors at $1.00 each. Drop into
Nancee's Hat Shop at 133 South 13th and
solve your fall hat problem.
HUB OF ACTIVITY
on the campus this weekend will center
around men's Rush Week and more directly
around the Capital Hotel, official rushee
headquarters it appears, for at this writing
rushee reservations were well past the hun
dred mark. Buzzing with aetivitv will h ihm
Huddle with much talk and weighty decisions
being made over cokes; the Coffee Shop with
nrshees comparing notes at breakfast; and
the newlv created Information rVsIr whor
bewildered rushecs can have their problems
ironed out by upper classmen who have been
through "the Mill."
Monday evening, after buttons have been
hung and congratulations passed around, th3
ATO's will honor their new pledges at a
party in the Rocke and Zephyr rooms. Yes,
there will be much ado about something at
the Capital Hotel this weekend in an atmos
phere that will be definitely collegiate.
MEN ONLY!
This sir is a message from Garcia so to
speak. Stopped into Harvey Bros, dandy store
on O street it's a good habit to get Into
to look over the new fall stock. While brows
ing among the splendid suit patterns Manager
Jack Lofink walked up with bis big smile and
handshake to remark, "Happy to see you
back. To us that means that you were satis
fied on your previous visits here. Why don't
you tell the new fellows who are coming up
to stop in and visit us. We don't want them
to windowshop. We want them to come in
where they can get the real lowdown on our
new fall school stock."
And believe you me, It's a good habit to
have when it's one which demands that you
stop into Harvey's at least once a month and
keep tab on the new styles that constantly
flow into their store.
EYE-CATCHER
and a beau-catcher as well is the new
POMPY hat designed on Fifth Avenue espe
cially for the Pompy Coif now being featured
