And so another old face returns,
along with all the Hallowe'en
spooks and witches, to haunt her
old haunts and drag out all the
Bkeletons. . .Bill Fox and Dinny
Ford led the Manhattan Migration
and took off last night in "Ready
Eddy," Bill's custom-made push
motor... The amazing deal is that
he's dumping off Dinny on the
way and then will pick up his date
for the week-end in Kansas City

collected some of his pals and will
deal them out to his various gal
friends in St. Joe... The lads were
bo anxious to start that they, too,
left last night .. .Looks like the
Big Weekend for lots of people...
And from all advance plans, this
year's train trip ought to have its
share of spirits and we don't mean
the Hallowe'en species, either...

to meet SAE Dick Spelts, to whom
she's pinned, in Manhattan. . .He's

While practically the whole Scotts
bluff contingent is going home for
a rest cure... Betas will be cele
brating the initiation of Joe Sonne

rority row had best take to cover
tonight because the Terrible Tau's
are going out to do a little spirit
spooking themselves. . .Ending up
at their house for a fireside 'party

on his hands the day before that

his Tuesday n'ght date with Lucille

into is that of SAE Bill Leiniger

Minnesota V
Develops New
Glider Form
MINNEAPOLIS, M i n n e s o ta.
(ACP). Something new in gliders
has been developed at the Univer
sity of Minnesota's aeronautical
engineering laboratory.
It is the product of a Northwest
Airlines engineer's designing and
the tireless effort of a crew of
university students. NX34222 is
the only name the new glider has.
It will remain unchristened until
after it has passed federal tests.
It weighs a scant 500 pounds,
takes off and lands at 30 miles
an hour, has reached 75 miles an
hour in a dive and is expected to
go faster in later tests.
The designs of the glider is
owned by the University Flying
club. If later tests bear out the
excellent performance of the pri
mary flights, chances are good it
will become popular thruout the
glider-flying world.
NX31222 differs from ordinary
commercial gliders in three re
spects: 1. It has two seats instead of
one, each with a complete set of
controls permitting first-hand in
struction. 2. It is rugged enough to stand
student training abuse.
3. It has given high perform
ance in maneuvers and has suf
ficient strength to permit towing
behind an airplane.
Ninety-four high schools are
represented by freshmen attending
Potsdam (N. Y.) State Normal
school.

mined number of independent
stations. The talk, delivered in ob
servance of Navy Day, also was
given worldwide shortwave circulation.

sorority houses on the campus, and
it is hoped that the party will be
endorsed by all women's organi
zations. "The primary purpose of this
party is to acquaint girls on the
campus who otherwise might never
meet," Dorothy White, president of
BABW stated. If the party is a
success, the BABW may sponsor
a similar affair next year.
Tickets costing 15 cents apiece
went on sale yesterday when rep
resentatives from sororities and
other women's houses on the cam
pus met in room 307 of the Union
to receive tickets for their houses.
A general ticket sale will begin in
the Union foyer tomorrow.
Because the party is scheduled
on the day of the Minnesota-Nebraska
game a radio for football
fans will be available for the
broadcast. The program for the
afternoon centers around three
one-act plays presented by stu
dents in the University Theater.
Games of shuffleboard, ping pong,
and darts have been arranged as
well as square dancing. The music
room will be open.
Tickets may be obtained from
any member of t. e BABW, and
from the house representatives. If
extra tickets are desired, Marilyn
Fulton should be telephoned at
3-5131.
Artificial Light
Pins Hen Give
Eggs in Winter
AMES, la-Light has been
thrown on the subject of winter
egg production, literally and with
quick effect, at Iowa State col
lege. According to W. R. Whitfield,
extention poultry specialist, Iowa
poultrymen can increase winter
egg production to spring levels
by providing artifical light for
their hens. Most popular method
is use of a "morning light," which
lengthens the birds' working day
natural illumination.
Use of lights is effective only
when mash and grain feeds are
provided, however, since the pur
pose of illuminatiDn is to increase
feed consumption during short
winter days.
