Tli.' Union graduates . . . ami it's poinff trt
celebrate with a weekend party!
Winding up four years on the campus, the
Student Union will hold dancing and parties
both May 1 and 2 to celebrate. Unusual attrac
tions will be featured on both nights: Friday,
a carnival and Saturday the presentation of
the Cornhuskcr beauty queens.
Pallors AUC will be converted into a Com
Crib Annex for the nights with recorded mu
sic, cold drinks, and dancing. Hoth second ami
third floor will be closed on the two nights to
all except party-goers.
Lloyd Hunter and his all-Negro orchestra,
familiar to students on this campus, has been
hired for bolh Union dances and the' AWS
matinee dance Saturday afternoon in the ball
room. Created especially for this year's party by
the Union activities committee, the idea is
new, and differs decidedly from any of the
former Union birthday balls or any all-university
party given recently. This is the first
weekend affair ever held in the building, ami
it is also the first time an orchestra has been
hired to play for three dances in two days.
Last year, when the dance was held in the
coliseum, Kay Noble and his band played. In
the years before music was furnished by Larv
Clinton and Kubinoff, and the first year Orrin
Tucker played at the opening of the building.
Turning the Union into one large carnival
palace, concessions will be set up on second
and third floors by various organizations who
submitted ideas last week. Ten concessions
will be run, including dart throwing, penny
toss, turtle race, fortune telling, telegrams,
roulette wheel, throw-a-ring-a-duck, rat race,
"so you think you know music?'', and a
sketching booth.
Plans for the presentation of Ihe beauty
queens are being made by the Corn husk ev,

Dr. Leverton Is Honored
By Nutrition Institute
BY RANDALL PRATT.
Ey virtue of her research work
"ii human nutrition at the Univer
sity of JCtbraska, Dr. Ruth Lever
ton received a new honor by being
elected to membership in the
American Institute of Nutrition.
Only the bent aeientista in nu
trition and medicine are accepted
l'r membership in this national
organization. There are about 400
numbers scattered thruout the
counrty and all are widely known
for their scientific work. Election
to the group is honorary.
Not pertaining to the honor but
to the work which Dr. Leverton
performs as chairman of the Ne
bra.ska State Nutrition Committee,
she pointed out that Nebraska nas
lagged behind three-fourths of the
other Elates in county organiza
tion for nutrition work. She hopes
that the state nutrition conference
held yesterday at the Student Un
"We are anxioi :s to organize
nutrition activities in counties
where there are already function
ing groups with which to work,
however, we do not wish to super
impose another program upon an
already over-organized county. We
want the nutrition program to be
closely associated w:th civilian de
fense activities, even though the
nutrition committees may operate
long after the need for civilian
defense activities has passed."
The program for the state nu
trition conference included a
working session for delegates, in
addition to several talks by Gov
ernor Dwight Criswold, Dr. Helen
Mitchell, principal nutritionist with
the Federal Security Agency,
Washington D. C, and others.
The conference was held to
,.r.ntr more interest in local nutri
tion urograms and to acquaint
county organizations with the help
u-hich the Nebraska State Nutri
tion Committee is prepared to

Advises Drama Majors
To 'Let Hollywood Come
To You; Continue Study'
co you wanta get in movies
and invade Hollywood? Well, you
gotta either have glamour with
a capital G. or you gotta be six
feet high. That is the girls gotta
be like Lamar and the boys divine
like Gable.
But, according to Warner Broth
ers' talent scout, Mr. S. J. Baiano
who gave the University Theatre
the once-and-a-half-over yester
day afternoon, fledgling actors
and actresses should not go to
Hollywood, but should let Holly
wood come to them.
Continue Training.'
After a three weeks' tour of
the leading western universities
in search of star material, Mr.
Baiano advises theatre majors
studying at universities to con
tinue to absorb as much training
and experience at that university
as possible, for there is found the
best training and most qualified
teachers in the country. Also
highly recommended as training
in dramatics are the eastern sum
mer stock companies.
After seeing the first act of the
Players' coming production,
Seven Sisters, the talent scout
muttered softly to himself admir
ing comments about the number of
pretty girls around and about. He
also announced that Maribel

seemed impressed with Perry Full
