The Union Helps Again
rian for a three meals a day club formulated
this fall by the student union represents another
student service among the many the union has in
troduced since its opening three years ago.
Too many students who come to school on a
shoe-string save money on the item most impor
tant to their health food. They often do not real
ize that by eating three hamburgers or a couple of
sandwiches a day they are braking down their
physical conditions, thereby reducing their effi
ciency in school work. To alleviate this situation
the union is attempting to give them enough food
and a balanced diet for the least possible expense.
The students who join the club will be served in the
Cf-.feteria during a wider range of hours and will pay
70 cents a day. divided into 15 cents for breakfast,
23 cents for lunch and 30 cents for dinner.
The Daily Nebraskan feels that the student
union is performing a great service in its efforts to
et students to join its three meals a day club and
this publication will do everything possible to help
nd support the union in this new service project.
Daily Nebraskan Re-styled
The Daily Nebraskan appears today with a
pomewhat different style from last year. Column
rules have been re-introduced and all headline words
Mart with capital letters instead of just the first
word in the first lines of the headline. The staff
hopes that these changes will make the paper more
readable than heretofore.
Despite a few minor style changes, however,
the Nebiaskan will continue the same spirit as
txiote in its support of campus activities. The aim
t this newspaper will lemain as always to have
complete coverage of all campus organizations, fac
ulty activities, administrative offices, research proj
ects and social life.

Poet Mortem Rushing
Webster said; "College rushing is a contest be
tween two classes for temporary possession of a
walk, fence, cane, etc." pen't believe it. Webster
j.ever went through rush week.
A more intelligent definition of the late cam
Ttiis sport might be: "An ordeal each freshman
must go thru if he wishes to kick in 40 to fiO bucks
fc month dues." Or: "A three day perienl when each
fraternity man temporarily ads like a gentleman."
Oi : "A time when the ned so Mnooth fraternity
loan learns to play solitaire in the guest room."
The 'new order" for soroiities last week left
be.th the rushers and rushees in a pretty befuddled
ce.ndition. The new rules forced the "high-pressure
fa Is" to shift into low gear. More casual conversa
tuins, metre impressive entertainment, no Hpiking.
In spite of this "regimentation," the fintl re
turns from preference night found the sorority
members and their new pledges well satisfied with
each other.
Rush week for men reached an exhausted cli
max Monday night. Three days of gladhanding,
rong fests, confidential second-floor sweat sessions,
nd almost continuous card games of "dealer's
choice,"
As for myself, I was constantly on the lekeut
fer the rtishee who wears size 16-3 shirt, 12 1-2
nexk, and who had recently benight a brown tweed
top-coat.
Letters directed to the reader population of
the Nebraskan will be printed in this Campus
Forum column. Please limit contributions to less
than 250 words. All letters printed must be sign

To the Student Body, Faculty and
Administrative Personnel
University of Nebraska
Lincoln
Greetings:
As the announcement of my resignation as di
rector of the student union was published sometime
after the close of the regular term last June, I had
but little opportunity to contact the student body,
faculty and administration before leaving the cam
pus July 1. Therefore I am taking this means to
express my genuine appreciation for the fine sup
port and cooperation given our program during my
tenure of service at the Student Union.
I sincerely solicit the same sort of cooperation
for my successor, Mr. William Marsh, and know
that you will find him to be interested, helpful and
entirely capable of carrying on the excellent pro
gram which has marked the Nebraska union's suc
cessful progress since its founding.
It was most difficult for me to leave the wonder
ful associations that first attracted me to the work
at the student union. I enjoyed my work with the
student body and the entire university public as
much as any other thing I have ever done. In my
new position as advertising director of the Con
sumers Public Power District, I hope I will not be
entirely forgotten by my friends of union days.
In my opinion the Nebraska union enjoys an out
standing reputation nationally- so much so, in fact
that the association of college unions has decided
to hold its national convention, for the first time
west of the Missouri, at the Nebraska union, De
cember 5 and 6. This event represents a fine op
portunity to present Nebraska most favorably be
fore student union delegates from coast to coast
and Nebraska, I am certain, will as always "come
through."
My best wishes go to you all with my gratitude
for your interest, support and effort.
Sincerely yours,
W. Joyce Ayres

What About Japan?
The proverbial "knife in the back" of the U. S.
in this war is the undeterminable position of Japan
as a co-partner ef the Axis. The main value of Ja
pan to the Axis is its nuisance value in keeping our
attention fo used in the Pacific and thus hindering
our aid to Britain. Her military value to his part
ners is cettainly very f-.lig.ht. occupied as she is in
China. She is ef course a potential threat to Soviet
Russia in the cast. bu. not a very potent one as
Iemg as she is .so involved in dealing with the stub
rxrn Chinese-.
Japan is rienind by her agreement with the Axis
to come to their aid if another power not already
involve-d in this sar enters the war against (ir
niany. This is eibviously oirocted against the U. S.
and nei other.
We have followed a policy ef appeasement
toward Japan fr several years now in an attempt
to coax her away from her Axis agreement. This
policy inveilvcil the shipment of oil and scrap metal
to Japan even afte r this second Woi Id war began
and the Japanese jeined the Axis. It was a futile
policy, enly a lew months old, has eleme more t
swing Japan way from the Home-Berlin paitner
ship than two er three years of appe asenie nt had
done. Japn is faced with economic collapse be
cause ef our ecemohiic embargo and the continual
drain in men and resouices of the Chinese cam
paign. The first indication that we have of the course
of events in Japanese politics will come as U. S.
merchant ships bound for Vladivostok with sup
plies for Russia enter the waters around Japan. The
military faction of Japan want to close these waters
to all but Japanese shipping. That some of our ships
have entered this zone already is quite probable
since several tankers left San Francisco bound for
Vladivostok several weeks ago. The fact they were
not stopped and turned back if they were we have
not heard abeut it- is indicative of a frienelly Japa
nese attitude toward the U. S. which has prevailed
over the hostility of hie military forces in Japan.
At any event, one would elo well to watch the fate
of U. S. ships entering the waters be-tween Japan
and Vladivostok. It will be the best Indication of
the Japanese attituele tovaid the U. S.
Week in Water
Fails to Stop
Prof's Watch
Without a cent of cost for re
pairs, a watch which Dr. James
L. Dyson, Colgate university prof
fessor, is wearing keeps perfect
time altho it lay for a week be
neath the waters of the Atlantic
ocean.
Dr. Dyson lost the watch in Bos
ton bay in November and a week
later it was fished out by an ang
ler who thought he had hooked a
crab. The watch was finally traced
to Dr. Dyson, former LaFayette
college track star, thru a Pcnn re
lays inscription on the hack.
