Your Two Bits?
This might well be called "A Tale of Two Campuses," but
it hasn't been.
First, we'd like to quote two items. From last Thursday's
issue of the Daily Californian: "By surpassing by $1,483 the
$25,000 bond and stamp quota set for this term, university stu
dents have again proved their ability and eagerness to aid the
war effort." From the Daily Nebraskan of last Friday : "War
stamp sales hit a new time LOW yesterday as a total of $77.60
was reported from the five booths ..."
Two campuses, two stories.
On the California campus, 31 living groups topped the $3
per person quota. One sorority averaged $52.79 per member.
Two other living groups came in with $33.77 and $27.31. On
the Nebraska campus, after approximately three months for
both the post-war scholarship fund and the stamp drive total
figures amount to little more than $2,700.
Approximately four bits per student.
Only slightly more than half of that has gone for stamp
purchases which means the average material contribution on
campus has amounted to four .30 calibre shells per student. Is
that the maximum for Nebraska students in "ability and eager
ness to aid the war effort?"
Approximately two bits per student.
We questioned five students in the Union Saturday, and
only one had purchased stamps on campus, with a forty cent
sale recorded in his favor to date. Surely if California can
set a $3 per person quota, Nebraska can do better than has been
done in the prt Ihrec months. (
Four .30 calibre shells . . . your two bits?
G. W. A,
L.B. 362
"From and after Sept. 1, 1043, the University of Nebraska,
shall, in addition to its other regularly scheduled contests of a
competitive nature, schedule all athletic contests, debates and
all other competitive contests with Creighton university when
requested by Creighton university to do so."
Thus reads L. B. 362, introduced in the unicameral last
week by Senator Sam Klaver of Omaha.
We don't know Mr. Klaver, but we would like to take issue
with him on two or three points, to wit:
(1) It might appear to some ofthe Nebraska and also
Creighton alumni now in service that the state legislature
could devote their time to a better cause than setting up intra
state university athletic schedules in wartime.
(2) Why should Nebraska, a state university, set up their
athletic schedule at the request of Creighton, a privately-owned
institution!
(3) Senator Klaver's statement to the effect tthat "Creigh
ton has the top basketball team in the nation" so "why
shouldn't the Bluejays and Nebraska meet each other" seems to
indicate that Creighton would meet Nebraska only on condition
that national ratings pointed to a sure win for the Blueja.vs.
All of which makes L. B. 3G2 appear rather a futile, defin
itely unnecessary, certainly illogical gesture toward dragging
old skeletons out of ancient closets.
Douglas county has a pretty big voice in state legislhlion.
but we think Nebraska university through its athletic board of
control and board of regents can keep that voice down to a
whisper regarding the university's competitive contests
schedule.

BMOC of four weeks ago, ATO JIM VAN
LANDINGHAM, as a Cadet in the Clinch Fly
ing Service V-5 at North Platte, now has some
three hours solo flying time behind him at the
time of this writing. Jim enlisted last August
and left his office as secretary of Interfrater
nity Council and his job as circulation man
ager of the rag just a month ago. He is now
living at Fenner Hospital, since there are no
barracks up as yet. V-5 must break them in
early.
A paragraph from one of his letters de
scribes his cockpit experiences:
"Today we went tip 3,700 feet and did
spins and learned how to recover from them.
Also stalls bringing the nose of the ship up
until it stops; then drop the nose and gun
the motor and gradually pull it out of a
dive."
Third Officer MARY STEWART, Delta
Gamma two years back, has just completed
officer's candidate school. She has boen as
signed to duty with the Second WAAC Regi
ment, stationed in downtown l)es Moines.
While here, Mary was active in WAA.
In the current class 43-K at Randolph Field,
Texas, are five former Nebraskans, Aviation
Cadets HENRY 6. THOMAS, DWIGHT C.
BAIER, FRANCIS D. MURPHY, RICHARD
SULLIVAN, and JAMES PREDMORE. Upon
completion of this second nine-week phase of
their silver wing training, these cadets will be
graduated to advanced flying school thrucut
the Army Air Forces Gulf Coast Training Cen
ter. Some will enter single engine schools as
potential fighter pilots while soon-to-be bomber
pilots will be enrolled at twin-engine fields.
On the front lines of defense are the
former employees of the Union. Former direc
tor JOYCE AY RES, is now stationed at Nor
folk, Virginia, as lieutenant junior grade in
the U. S. Navy.
Last Saturday Ensign GEORGE RUSSELL,
a former cashier in the famed Union Grill was
married to Marg Hayes, Union secretary of
last year. Just where he is stationed at pres.
ent is a secret between him and Mrs. Russell
and the Navy.
And seen wandering gaily down a Chicago
street recently was Ensign BILL MARSH,
Un ion director last year, who is now an in
structor at the Great Lakes Naval Training
Station . His wife, Maribel Hitchcock, Theta
of last year, is there with him.

cal association. The work of Dr.
Van Es was praised in talks by
Dr. R. R. Dykstra, dean of the
Kansas State school of veterinary
medicine; Rufus M. Howard, di
rector of the department of agri
culture; Gov. Dwight Griswold;
and John E. Curtiss, department
commander of the American
Legion. A telegram was received
from officers of the American
Veterinary Medical association.
Since 1918 Dr. Van Es has been
professor of animal pathology and
hygiene at the college of agricul
ture. He is author of an inter
nationally recognized book on
Trinciples of Animal Hygiene,"
and has written many important
research articles and bulletins.
Born in The Netherlands, Dr.
Van Es received his veterinary de
gree at the Canada Veterinarian
college, a medical degree at the
Medical college of Alabama, and
a D.Sc. at the University of Penn
sylvania. From 1893 to 1903 he
was a veterinary surgeon, and
from 1903 to 1907 was chief state
veterinary of North Dakota. From
1903 to 1918 he was professor f
veterinary science at North Da
kota college.
Among the many tributes paid
him was one by Dean Burr, who
said: "I have never known any
one whose life has been so rich
in the field of research."

tion. Eastern Magic presents the
eerie magician who conjures up
all the far eastern water fountain
and rope mysteries. The little
puppet who portrays two sides of
a man arguing with himself comes
to a drastic end in the comedy
Soul Conflict. Whistler and his
Dog concludes the regular mar
ionette work of the show.
New Marionettes Presented.
Miss Shanafelt and Mr. Hendrix
will present two new marionettes,
"The Nightclubbers," as an added
attraction at the end of the pro
gram. Standing three feet high,
the Clown and the Strip-Tease Ar
tist will go thru their night club
routine without the benefit of the
marionette stage. In this way,
Miss Shanafelt and Mr. Hendrix
will demonstrate' to the audience
the actual manipulation of these
bigger than average puppets.
Identification cards will be
necessary for admittance.
