Not with headlines like these which ran in the last couple of issues of The Nebraska!: "Schooner Sets Contest Dates;" "Needed, Jfen" (for University chorus) and "War Show Spotlights Two Acts of Musical Specialties." Publicizing itself as a literary magazine with appeal for everyone, the Schooner finished a successful drive in Decem ber, and now, with the beginning of '44, it is holding a short story contest for students on the campus. The prizes, though worth working for, are not the main incentive in this com petition. Being a publication of high rank throughout the nation is of more value, for, in receiving a chance to have something published in the Schooner, students have a won derful opportunity to show their ability to more than a university audience. Maybe we aren't all soloists, but there are a good many yho sing fairly well on the campus and Dr. Westbrook is look ing for them for his Men's Chorus. It may be a little work, but the fun of singing with a group is unequalled in that field. The war show is already well underway now. Before the cast was finished, however, everyone who had any showman ship talent was given a chance to try out for the show.. An other place for your talents, students. If writing, singing, dancing haven't appealed to you well, business ability and salesmanship may be applied in the sale war stamps. Or you might show your stamina by collecting things. But as for lack of opportunity not on this campus now. Just stick your two cent3 in and get going. Dear Writer: The Editors of ihe POISON HE01STKK wish 1o 11-ank you for the belated public-ivy, and on behalf of the college for same, but would also like to say that your so-called story was the best piece of tongue-in-cheek reporting 1hat any trash basket in a cheap bar could ever have seen. It positively .stunk. If you were publicity chief for Der Schoene Adolph he'd certainly lose his propaganda war. !o back to the "city room' of Pol 1st own High School's BLAH and learn the rudiments of HOW, WHY, WHEN, WHERE WHAT etc. In disgust, The Editors, THE POISON REGISTER. Dear Editors of THE POISON REOISTE: This is the first bit of fan mail I've ever received. For that, I want to ihank you. 1 am sorry I seem to have hurt the pride of the editors of such an endearing paper as THE POISON REGISTER. But as to the "stinking," could it be the material? As to the "rudiments of How, Why, When, Where, What . . . etc.", look in your little; black books and learn that in a feature Mory the writer (that's I, Bub) can say anything he or she wishes, no how's, why's, w hen's included. If you'd signed your names, I'd be glad to repeat them here for 1he publicity. Until the next POISON RE(HSTi:R, I remain, Your "Dear Writer," Eleanor Knoll.

And amongst the rank and file of the average student are several extraordinary so-called human beings who try to beat the geme of finals in rather peculiar ways. First, there is the "Eager Beaver" type who will rise with the sun, begin plugging, and dash madly home from classes to tear open the pages of any book. Com plete with glasses and dictionary and locked door, he will study all day, and, to the disgust of all, go to bed when the moon appears, murmuring smugly to himself. "The square on the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the square of its leg . . ." The scene shifts to a typical room in the dorm, where there are seven girls, all studying for an English final. "Society Susie" has read all of two pages in her comp book, and exclaims breath lessly, "Say, young Ermintrude, I saw the most scandalous thing at the house the other night . . . Two people were actually necking on the front porch, and guess who it was! ! !" Which immediately be gins the great discussion, and so on into the night . . . And don't forget "Dumb De lores," who thinks she knows everything about everything. She's discussing the finer points of Eng lish contemporary writers with three majors, and, on the mention of George Bernard Shaw, she looks up with that know-it-all look, and asks, "Did he go to school here or something?" The largest of thes groups is to be found seated ainund a cir cular table at any campus dive consuming glasses of knowledge, and discussing the good points of "For Whom the Bell Tolls" or "Native Son." To them goes the award, for they didn't know any thing to start with, and thus end up with the ame amount of edu cation. "Listless Louie" is the perfect example of how not to pass a test. He picks up a book, looks at the first page, and lights a cirgarette. He hears some of the ftHows talk ing in the next room down the hall, so he saunters down to give the boys the finer points about football. Later, he goes to the Crib, and sips several coke. When someone askfl him a question, he just says, "Huh?" He finally drags himself home and inevitably goes to bed. Oh, well, all's well that ends well, he keeps telling himself. The night's tour wouldn't be complete without entering the do main of the guy who has the per fect system worked out. To the eye of the stranger, the "Crib Kid" is really giving his all for the ob noxious time-taker of studying. Actually, his carefuly drawing are going on a small piece of white paper, pocket-size, that is known in the less intellectual circles as a "crib note." Arriving in class, he finds that he is sitting in the first row, and he manages a rather weak smile. His-instructor smiles back, showing all of his gold plates, and the kid yells, "What are you laughing at? Your name ain't Joe! ! !" To make a long story longer, we have the "Worry Worm" (just trying to be different), who goes into spasms, writhes on the floor in complete agony, and eventually ends upon the hill with the ulcer causing process of worry. He de velops a big headache, back-ache, and a broken tooth. Naturally he's too sick to take the test tomorrow. ft " ' , X EELIISI LISLE 1.W .WERE 1.C3 PAIEl I LONG-WEARING SNUG-FITTING SH15.RL00KING nu MM
