DAILY NEBRASKAN Friday-, December 10, 1943 Happy day! Hell week is over for the Betas .and a few of the boys are still up and about, wiLh dates per usual. Along something of the same line, OCS at Fort Ben ning is over for many new lieu tenants as Phi Gam Ward Free man, Delta Sig Tom JlcClandis (seen with Delta Gamma Val Gould), Delt Dick Gellatly (who, incidentally, stopped in Illinois to see Mary Helen Dietrich), John Jay Douglass (with pinmate Gin nie McCullal, Howard Shirley (well occupying one Susie Pope's time) and lots more return from bivouacs and things to Nebraska U. And -to those who gripe about our little old university, these re turning boys say that the "There is no place like Nebraska" line is no lie! Of course, it's always good to see returning boys even without commissions. Just ask a few peo pie like Theta "Corky" York who is having a right good time with f onvier Al Casey, AST home on furlough from Kansas State, Sig ma Kappa Marion Coombs what with Kenny Greenwood back, and Kappa Mary Verink now that old steady Don Patterson, Sigma Chi. is around again. Steadies And Not Steadies. New and neat steady deals: that of Pi Phi Janice Eiakeslee and Delt pledge Kay Eumpas; Alpha Phi Shirley King and Delta Sig Bernie Urich.

Sigma Kappa Doris Frahn with Sigma Nu "Tex" Cole, and Sigma Kappa Lotus Storjohn with Cadet Orville Uthses.

Rumored that it's simpler to take 'em one at a time, Ed, but it's also more fun in numbers, huh? On the subject of rumors, what's this about the "private" Friday night party of "some of the boys irom camp Hood ' along with Tau boys Jim Nicola, Bill Korff and Gordy Ehlers with dates Alpha rm Jan Campbell, KKG Migss Manning and KAT Max Thomas?

Large, full greens were hung at the annual hanging of the green party in the court. drawing room, dining room, and the balcony.. Christmas trees light up everv part of the campus even to the three and half foot tree in the Nebraskan office. In the lounge of the union is a 14 foot tree, while the Pan American rooms each have little trees. Winking gaily from the windows of the sorority, fraternity, and organized houses are trees that nature never imag ined possible. Well anyway, we can all dream can't we? Tree Has Comedown. By the way, that monstrous tree you saw at the Mortar Board Ball has been sold to Ag for greens.

Then there is your neighbor and his cousin who have done the very same thing. HAPPY HOLIDAYS you end up with one of the big gest headaches you ever hope to have.
