The anonymous post-deadline
writer of yesterday's column would
have done well to sign his name.
Those people who have been repre
manding me (among them, the
perturbed Innocents whose party
secret leaked out) for writing the
news, can look elsewhere for a vic
tim, for a change!
An interesting new steady com
bination, which has appeared in
the last few days, is that of Mari
lyn Edwards, Kappa, and Johnny
Edwards, Beta. Nothing like be
ing consistent!
Getting a first hand view of.the
air base was recently-activated
Roland "Dog" Finley, ATO, who
resided at the hospital because of
a broken nose and two black eyes.
On recovering sufficiently from
these ailments, he returned to
Love library, only to be sent back
to the hospital the next day with
scarlet fever. Looks like it's Pat's
turn to send flowers.
Congrats Are in Order.
Congratulations to the two new
Initiates of Alpha Phi, Eva Spelts
and Esther Blanchard. While con-gratulr-t'ons
are in order, the same
to new president and vice-president
of Sigma Delta Tau, Ghita Hill and
Norma Pasternack, respectively.
Next on our regular form of
"Party Lines" comes the latest
pinnings. First we find that Al
pha Chi Mac Corbitt has received
the DU pin of Luverne Prang.
Then we have none other than Phi
. ilarcy Bauer and ATO Johnny
Thompson.
A little black kitten wandered
Into the Rag office to ask us just
whom was Mickey Stewart sitting
with on the fence in back of the
Beta house? It seems that they
disturbed the poor kittens priv
acy. This little kitten has the
right idea when it comes to gath
ering society news and he brings
us another interesting piece of
news about George Wright, ATO,
and Dorothy Gillan who were
pinned and unpinned in the space
of two days.
Left on the outside, yelling in,
was Leon "Pickles" Hines, Kap
pa Sig, spending all his spare time
in the library talking to pin mate
Jean Bovard who is confined with
the measles.
And on That Subject.
As long as the beans have al
ready been spilled we can mention
again the Innocent's party of
May 7. A deal concerning the
release of all library inhabitants,
by buying tickets to the dance,
was thought up Monday noon and
pulled within the space of three
hours. Looks like UN politics are
"still being put to practical use.
The ERC finally caught up with
five more UN fellows who will
leave for Fort Leavenworth May
6. They are Jim Caredis, Bob
Hiltner, Bill Seiboldt. Beta, Jim
Stevenson and George Wright,
ATO. As they go, one by one, we
find the pastime of knitting and
embroidering becoming more
popular.

Air Base Pre-view.
The entire cast and director, Mr.
Joe Zimmerman, took the show
out to the Lincoln Air Base Mon
day night for a pre-view perform
ance. The lack of stage properties
and scenery didn't affect the air
force mens' reception, for the
play was applauded by thunder
ous clapping and shrill whistling
The high-light of the perform
ance as far as the actors were
concerned was the loss of the all
important pipe scraper. Using
some ingenuity, the cast substi

ideas of many of the professors as
to the greatest difference, "I go
to my 8 oelock class!
Some of the fellows had noticed
more of a general change such as
Frank Kleager "the lack of activ
ty in the Student Union" and
John Jay Douglass, observation
that - "Nobody talks about the
war!"
The fellows didn't seem to men
tion it, but we imagine the girls
would agree unanimously that the
biggest change is the "crowded
sorority houses and dormitories on
Friday night darn!"
American civilization is the
theme of all compositions and dis

English course at Hunter college
this semester.
Nebraska Farmers Invest
Larger Incomes in Land
. . . Points Out Prof. C. M. Hicks
Nebraska real estate is a fa-
vored investment for Nebraskans
who have been accumulating extra
money during the recent upsurge

in business activity, it is pointed
out by Prof. Clifford M. Hicks of
the college of business administra
tion of the university.
Professor Hicks writes in the
April business review of the uni
versity on the general business
picture of the last three years.
Uses of Added Income.
Pointing out that agricultural
income for the state in 1942 was
up 83 percent from 1940 and that
other business activity has quick
ened accordingly, Professor Hicks
surveys uses being made of money
accumulated under this wartime
prosperity.
Sales of farms in Nebraska by
the federal land bank total 16
million dollars for the period from
1940 to 1942, he points out. In the
same period life insurance com
panies sold 2.7 milion dollars
worth of real estate.
Investments.
Besides investing in real estate,
Nebraskans are paying off debts
and putting large sums into se
curities, including war bonds.
Banks' investments in bonds have
moved up from 79 million dollars
three years ago to more than 131
million dollars. Professor Hicks
points out that much current in
come of individuals is left in
banks which are investing in gov
ernment obligations.
"Investment directly in U. S.
war bonds by individuals and busi
ness amounted in 1942 to 47 mil
lion dollars for the state of Ne
braska. These purchases together
wjth debt reduction and general
rise in bank deposits indicate a
strong financial structure, the
greatest danger to which is infla-i
tion. These resources offer in any
case a substantial backlog for Ne
braska business and individuals in
the future," Professor Hicks concludes.
