Carrying the Load
Monday and Tuesday three carloads of In
Tiooents, having volunteered their services to
tlie Student Foundation, toured high schools
thruout tlie slate in an attempt to interest
liigh scImhiI seniors in attending he university.
Oien forums were held for seniors, literature
the university was given to them, and Corn
huskers were left with the schools. From all
ilHTts, the trip appears to have K-en success
ful, lmt whether or nut there will le any tangi
ble results remains to be seen.
The mil -si ale tour is one of the many proj
ects which the Foundation, under the leader
ship of undergraduate John Jay Douglass and
guidance of the Student Council, is sponsoring
in its attempt to give favorable publicity to the
university ami the life of students here. Thru
its Maff, made up entirely of students who Lave
shown a desire to help in its work of service,
weekly letters are sent out to newspapers in
every county, literature is sent to high school
students, sjeial editions of the Daily Nebras
kan are distributed, Cornhuskers are presented
as gifts, and an essay contest is l'ing eon
ducted. Iist week the Foundation was reion
sible for a large downtown display of work
done in each college of the university.
Thru these and many other channels, the
Foundation hojtes to create among parents of
our students, pa irons, taxpayers, and, most ini
jM.rtant, legislators, the true picture of univer
sity life. When students of the university are
proud enough to give their time and ingenuity
in showing other what a really fine place it is,
jierhap oilier eope will recognize that UN
student are primarily after an education, and
that their lives have more than mere stcial in
terests. In the past few years, it mould seem that
legislators are git en to leliee that tlie only

Dean Dorothy Stratton at Purdue outlines
four ways in which the coed may contribute
her best'to help the war effort. These are: Go
to school this summer and go with a definite
purpose in mind. Training of the type that the
universities offer will make a contribution of
greatest value, work in a factory, an office, or
on a farm, learn shorthand and typing; secre
taries are needed; do volunteer work in your
community.
Shades of the Spanish Inquisition will set

when the Kangaroo Court holds its annual ses

vigilantes will set up the most dialtolieal

Feature events of Men's Week festivities are
the traditional Pajama Day during which male
students gaily trip to classes clad in bright ly
figured pajama tops.
Approximately 12.000 naval yeomen, con

college worthy of a sizeable appropriation is
the agricultural college. Agriculture is the
state's livelihood, and is worthy of at ten ion
but there are other colleges equally deserving
and equally capable of preparing young jteople
for a Nebraska career.
The Foundation and it staff receive no
monetary iK-nefits, only the satisfaction of
knowing that they are performing a service
They only boje that the university will be the
W'lieficiary.
Until now, the Foundation has operated
on fund donated by Tassels, Corn Cobs, and
the Student Council. No appropriation ha
been made available to them.
Student organizations should continue to
help the Foundation with their contributions
but the Foundation is outgrowing it in
fancy it needs now a sizeable appropriation
from the university itelf. The Foundation has
many needs postage, circulars, pamphlet, the
Daily Nebraskans, transportation, office fur
nishings, and w forth. When finally the uni
versitv will le the one to benefit from the loy
alty and interest which the Foundation hojies
to inspire, and erhajs even from increased
legislative appropriations, it should be willing
to carry at least part of the load.
