Still time to Buy
Today is the last day that Tasscla and Corn Cobs,
members of the campus defense committee and the
Union office will sell tickets to the movie, "A Yank
in the RAF," that will give the British War Relief
Society of Lincoln revenue to carry on its work.
Tickets are being sold for 44 cents, of which ten
cents goes to the society, if sold before the theatre
box office opens.
Students have responded well to the sale of these
tickets, but we hope a great many more will be
sold today. The more money the Lincoln group has
to carry on its local projects the more can be done
to alleviate the suffering and needy of Britain dur
ing the war. According to the report of the so
ciety, the New York headquarters has sent cash
and supplies abroad to air-raid victims, to families
of soldiers, sailors and airmen, to families of men
in the merchant marine and the life saving serv
ice, to refugees, evacuees and orphans. American
business men in London have used part of the Brit
ish War Relief funds to keep up and operate a fleet
f 106 ambulances, 54 mobile surgical units, 50 first
aid vans and 50 personnel wagons. These are only
some of the projects being carried on, but every
ticket sold for the movie here in Linroln helps the
general society.
Welcome, Teachers

How Many More?
Another American owned ship flying the Pana
manian flag has been sunk off Iceland. This time
it was the Bold Venture, sunk south and west of
Iceland and clearly within the defense zone set up
by both factions in the war situation. That coupled
with the crippling of the destroyer Kearny indi
cates the difficulty of protecting ships at sea from
subsea raiders.
We have long been wondering why Britain has
lost so many ships in this war, and we have been
prone to blame it upon the inefficiency of the
British convoy system. Now it seems that we can
not even protect Western Hemisphere vessels with
our own navy on patrol within a section of the
Atlantic much farther from the Axis submarine
bases. At least we cannot do so if those vessels
are not provided with armament of their own with
which to hold off the raider until help can reach
them.
The fact that the Bold Venture was flying the
flag of Panama makes little difference even to
Americans who discriminate between American
owned ships and ships flying the American flag
in belligerent zones since it was sunk in a zone
this side of Iceland clearly within our defensive
waters.
How many such sinkings are the people of the
U. S. going to stand for? They come closer to our
front door every day. They are Hitler's answer to
our "shoot on sight" policy. They are ships bearing
supplies to American troops stationed in Iceland.
The answer to the above question is not easy to
decide. If the trend of public opinion from out
right isolation in September 1939 to "aid to Brit
ain and Russia" in 1941 continues at the same rate
as it has, it means that the U. S. will sooner or
later become completely involved in this war.
If the U. S. enters this war it is automatically
committing itself to a policy of internationalism,
a policy of enforcing the peace that will result from
the defeat of Hitler. Perhaps if that had been done
at the end of the last war, the present crisis would
not be facing us today. If however the same reac
tion against such an internationalistic policy on the
part of the U. S. follows this war, our entrance into
the war would have been almost futile. This con
federation cannot be f-treFsed too much. It is a de
cision that should be reached before we enter the
war, if we do enter, and not after the war is over.
and masters will be here to get some new slants
on education; to meet old friends; to hear amusing
and outstanding speakers; to have fun; and to buy
some new clothes. We want to welcome these peo
pie, many of them former University of Nebraska
students, and we wish them a profitable and in
teresting three-day training period.

fed vitamin and protein supple
ments with their food as a treat
ment for the anemia. Quite some
progress was made which means
even greater expectations this year
using the special vitamins cap
sules. This year other phases of re
search will be carried on by the
department, but all will be di
rected toward the nutritional sta
tus of college women. Dr. Lever
ton claims the food intake, and the
amount of vitamins and minerals
one acquires, make a noted differ
ence in the appearance and ac
tions of the individual, and it is
the department's problem at pres
ent, to find out just what the ac
tive college coed needs.
The experiments on anemia will
begin as soon as Dr. Warner of
the health service refers anemic
women students who are willing
to cooperate with Dr. Leverton.
