Dr. Cliristensen Says ...
Synthetic Rubber Becomes
Permanent Supply Source
This spring is proving to be no
exception to the rule, for young
men's fancies are really- turning
to love in a bi way. Manifesta
tions range all the way from a
mass exodus to Penn Woods this
past weekend to pin-hangings ga
lore. . .
The tried and tru romance be
tween curly-haired Betsy Wright,
alpha Chi, and Nate Holman, Sig
ma Nu, was cemented Friday
night and what's more those pins
are already chained. . . June Jam
ieson, Kappa, and Jim Selzer, Phi
Psi, also took the big step Sunday
night which really seems to have
the approval of the brothers. Dick
Harnsberger and Al Busch, Phi
Psis of course. Both saw to it that
June was well-provided with re
freshments yesterday afternoon. . .
Ruthie McMillan, Theta and rival
gore-monger, made news herself
when she took Frank Vette's Beta
pin Saturday night. . . That same
night also marks the date of a
most surprising pin-hanging, cli
maxed at the AGR formal. Carl
Erwin and Loujean Emerson, Gam
ma Phi, were the principals in this
sudden renewal of a last year's
affair. , .
We Almost Missed It.
A formal we missed last Friday
was the Women's Co-ops dance at
which Margie Holmes and Hank
Marvin were really enjoying them
selves. . . .A similar shindig will
come off this Friday when the
Men's Co-ops get together for a
really big spring formal. It is ir
first and they hope a real success,
and so do we. . . Some of the peo
ple who'll be there and who they'll
be with include Pioneer Co-op El-
den Mathauser with Gwen Peter
son and Cornhusker Co-op Ed
Flynn, president, and John Norall
ascorting dorm girl Helen Dudele
and Ruth Hirschmer respec
tively . . . Farm House
is celebrating this Friday night
with a sweetheart dinner, and be
lieve it or not, Jerry Abbenhaus
is taking old love, Theta Jean Os
born, perhaps it means a perma
nent reconciliation. Peggy Capron,
AOPi, and Marlorie Adams will
also eat their dinner that night at
2545 O with Dale Brookemeier and
Warren Hutchinson respectively,
We predicted it and we announce
It, Dick Chapin, Phi Delt, and
Peggy Stencil, Alpha Chi, are
already going steady, and his
brothers of the silo hardly' know
how to take the news . . . Em
barrassed was the word for Joe
Anderson, Delta Sig, as he retired
fiom class to hear his singing
telegram today at the request of
Professor Hicks.
Congrats to The Taus.
Congratulations are due the new
Initiates of Alpha Tau Omega.
The "Supermen" of the ZBT
house are having their almost Post
poned houseparty this Saturday
and Julie Cohn has already asked
Esther Fox. SDT. . .
More weddings, both past and
future. . . Dorothy Tipton, Alpha
Phi, and Dick Spelts, Sig Alph
tied the knot in Omaha Saturday
while Nate Eastman, Phi Gam
pre-med, and Elizabeth Gailey
Lincoln nurse, are looking forward
to June. . .With due credit to the
World-Herald, we note the engage
ment of Alice Ann Hascall, DG
to her Ak-Sar-Ben Ball escort,
The Kappas and Phi Gams are
having the big picuic this Friday
In place of the usual hour dance.
Incidentally despite the competi
tion of picnic and houseparties, the
Turnpike is still holding its own
with crowds last weekend and even
bigger anticipations for the com
ing one. . .
Bette Peterson, pin-mate of
Sigma Nu at K State, will leave
Boon for said college to attend a
sweetheart dinner. Bette was
named "Sweetheart of Sigma Nu
on her lapt trip down which isn
bad at all. . .
Dr. Leo M. Christenseii, research
executive for the university chem
urgy program, stated Friday the
rubber program which the United
States is building now will be a
permanent source of supply.
"So far as cost and quality are
concerned, it seems definitely in
dicated now that the new syn
thetics and guayule can be pro
duced at not more than the pre:
vailing price of natural rubber be-

fore the war and that the quality
will be fully as good.
Guayule rubber is the best of
the prospects for rubber from na
tive crops, Dr. Christensen said,
"and 75,000 acres of it are being
planted now. This will yield as
much rubber per acre per year as
have the best of the East Indies
rubber plantations, and it will do
this on semi-arid lands of south
western states.
Guayule will furnish only about
one-third of the total requirement,
however, and the major part of
this country's permanent rubber
supply will come from synthetics.

revenue tax you pay on every pack of twenty
cigarettes is doing its bit for Uncle Sam
And Chesterfield's superior blend
of the world's best cigarette tobaccos
has everything it takes to satisfy a
smoker. It gives you a smoke that is
definitely milder, far cooler and lots
better-tasting. Get yourself a pack of
Chesterfields today.
Smoke the cigarette that satisfies.
CHESTERFIELDS follow ft
