Lincoln .
(Continued from Page 1.)
That would be doubly interesting.
Just imagine going down the
streets and seeing a glass house
with a Parisienne accent!" Yes,
indeed! Just imagine. This whole
thing is a typographical error
Hagelberger said that. Not me.
He Doesn't Want Much.
Bill Todd, former Lincoln stu
dent who attended Chicago last
ysr, offered the mild sugges
tion that we move Lincoln out
to California. Also, he suggest
ed that the university be moved
out of town. "I've got that on
my mind getting a university
out in the country where there
aren't any people." Chicago
must be some place to make
that much of an impression.
Betty Hochreiter, winsome Al
pha Xi, murmured "I'm perfectly
satisfied with the way it is now.
Only we need a few more tall,
blonde men that know how to and
like to dance. More convertibles
and no gas rationing. More cokes
and " And she is perfectly
satisfied. What do you know?
Bob Bramson, junior Bobby
Taylor, alto it In favor of more
blondes women preferred. He
it also in favor of the plan that
everyone have a car and a spare
tire. He it alto In favor of more
blondes. He also is in favor of
the plan that he make the bas
ketball team. He also is in fa
vor of more blondes personally
we think redheadt would go bet
ter with you Bob. (For Bob
only. Please note. We did not
call you Bobby.)
Extend Campus.
Lee Christensen suggests that
the campus be extended to 16th
street. More buildings should be
built, final exams eliminated and
university jobs should pay more
than twenty-five cents an hour
And then along came Quentin
Samuelson, blonde and bland, and
grinned, "I'd make it a wide open
boom town!"
Dieter Kober, a musician at
heart, and mind, etc., first sug
gested that Lincoln should allow
beer to be sold on Sunday. Then
"Set aside fund for more cul
tural activities. Have a new mu
sic building with a musio li
brary." We could have a concert
every day and "have one city
paper create a music depart
ment that knows what it's talk
ing about."
Genevieve Wild seems to have
been rather bored with Lincoln.
It needs excitement. I don't
know what I would do with it
really don't."
Of Course Not Men.
Grace Siems and Betty
Schmaltz sat in the crib and
talked to us over empty water
glasses. "We'd like to have a
way to get acquainted with
more people." (The gals stay at
the Phi Mu house.) "But we're
not especially interested In
men." Oh, there isn't any harm
in trying or is there?
Betty Moxham wants to move
the town to California also
"Every lamp post would be a
Greek God." One suggestion any
way for endowing Lincoln with
enough eligible men. "Elect Clark
Gable mayor and change its name
to Jerksberg. "
Oh we forgot a cute remark
of Hagelberger's. "If you really
want to make this town differ
ent, why not take a couple of
zombies or change your
glasses." We had to have some
way to end it and we did.
Cheerio.

My Cold Diane.
A penthouse, penthouse, high
above the hum; a goddess on
bearskin rug by the fire, my plump
Diane; a glass of buttered rum
between my hands. What more
can man desire.
The burning stuff slides down
and fires my heart, my brain does
know rum fires gray ashes make
But sweet Diane, eternal apple
tart, never so my furnace flames
can shake.
I do adore her so, a million
times. To taste the sugar of her
lips this night will only serve to
quicken love's enzymes, increase
my longing, and whet my appetite,
This is a golden paradise to hold,
yet still I weep. The gaudy wench
is cold.
How shall I storm those unde
frosted eyes? How shall I mount
those scarlet, Icy lips? When all
her looks bend on my call, to spite
it, my tortured heart she flips.
Beneath the table, crawling
there, I find again my heart where
still it sits. The little red thing,
empty now, tough in rind, must
be so, else it now would lie in bits
My sweet Diane, while musing
there I sit, goes, bored and lan
guid, back to where it is hot
To lean across the rail is ec
stacy. The terrace overlooks the
diamond town, aglister with
blinking mazda sea. My tears
drop down, a hundred stories down
My dear Diane, my lovely, love
ly louse, back on her bearskin lies
she there. To kneel beside her
head, a quiet mouse and probe her
eyes, it is despair.
Two star blue puddles, empty
both of heat, stare upward at me,
gorgeous, deadly eyes. My thumbs
do itch to dig them out. They
cheat me of everything I want, my
prize.
Now at her feet I bend to scan
the lush, white hunk of angel ice
with yellow capped. I'll stay until
the ice from you does rush, outsit
the penguin cold that has me
trapped. Diane, until the snowball
turns to rose, I'll crouch content
and count your painted toes.

Tuesday evening.
Since Mr. Wishnow is the con
ductor, the music should be well
played, and this music, not being
of a depressing nature, snouia ap
peal to those who are weary of
hearing of the war, of submarine
attacks of Rommel, of the north
south railroad between Moscow
and Rostov. Of course some of
these individuals will probably
ask, after glancing at the pro
gram ana seeing Caucasian
Sketches" why the orchestra isn't
playing "In the Oil Fields."
Wait and See.
This Saturday evening after the
university theatre has presented
'Outward Bound ' there should be
some interesting comments irom
those who see it. '
Some whose intellectual capaci
ties. have not been sufficiently de
veloped will probably dismiss the
whole affair with the curt and to-the-polnt
remark : "Screwy!"
Those whose brain cells have been
saturated with the arts will prob
ably breath some sanctified sigh
like "extraordinarily exquisite,"
and the self-styled genius will
sneer, as is his habit.
The play, however, should hold
the attention of all those who see
it. It is rather unusual to say the
least. There has been a division
of opinion as to the pretending
abilities of the university theatres
players, but Saturday night will
be their chance to prove how wor
thy they are of the most sublime
art of acting...
Wrong Impressions.
There seems to be some slight
misconceptions as to the wording
and ideas behind last week's dis
course on soldiers. Some seem to
have gotten the impression (delib
erately?) that I was advocating
Beethoven and Brahms for the en
tertainment of the Soldiers and
nothing else.
This was certainly not its pur
pose. I meant only that the uni
versity as well as the private citi
zens should make a vigorous ef
fort to keep the soldiers happy.
There also has been comment to
the effect that the soldiers are.
as a lot, a bad crowd to get mixed
up with. Well, perhaps I am one
of the misguided democrats who
believes that America's citizen
army is one to be proud of. May
be the intellectual aristocracy on
the campus will be kind enough to
Every Tuesday
J. A. Daniehons Teach Square
Dancing Lessons for Union
Regular square dancing class
will meet on Wednesday from 7 to
8:30 p. m. this week instead of
Tuesday, the assistant director of
the Union said yesterday. This
will be the fifth class of the sum
mer, and the class has been
changed to accommodate the Uni
versity Summer Orchestra con
cert to be held Tuesday.
Popular on both the city and
ag campuses last year, square
dancing is now having just as big
a success with summer school students.
Over 160 students have been at
tending the weekly square danc
ing classes in the Union, which
are held on Tuesday evenings at
7:30. All others going to summer
Lincoln Sponsors
American Heroes
Day Celebration
Promising one of the biggest
events in Lincoln's history, the
committee in charge of the Amer
ican Heroes day parade on Julv
17 have planned an affair in which
every civic and service club, vet
eran organization and the like will
participate.
This parade is Dart of the retail
ers' drive to sell war bonds and
stamps. Several bands will be in
the parade.
In Ballroom
school are welcome to come, Pat
Lahr, assistant director of the
Union, said.
The six dancing lessons on the
summer schedule are free, and
are being taught by Mr. and Mrs.
J. A. Danielson, who taught last
semester's classes, with a typical
old-fashioned orchestra supplying
the music.
The Danielsons were taught by
Lloyd Shaw, the country's fore
most exponent of the square
dance. In his home in Colorado
Springs, Colo., Mr. Shaw has
organized several square dancing
troups who have toured the
country. His story appeared in a
recent issued of the Saturday Eve
ning Post.
