Nebrashan Reviews News
BY GHITA HILL.
As the school year draws to a
close, the Nebraskan reviews the
second semester's top stories.
With an all-woman staff, except
for a male sports editor, the Ne
braskan went to press three times
weekly and brought the campus
news of professors, students and
activities.
On Feb. 13, the publication's
Charter Day edition was distrib
uted. Since the beginning of
classes of the university on Sept.
7, 1871, the university has 59,000
former students and graduates,
and has granted 34,512 degrees.
Wishing to acquaint the public
with the university's need for
more adequate appropriations, the
Nebraskan published a series of
articles prepared by the chancel
lor's faculty advisory committee,
the administrative council of
deans, and the board of regents.
"Men, you should have been
there," was the advice given by
Harold Andersen to the male pop
ulation after he had witnessed
Coed Follies review.
Students and campus organiza
tions came through with the
money as was evidenced by the
successful AUF Red Cross drive
which surpassed its $2,300 goal
to the tune of $300. Student Foun
dation this year reached its goal,
and the $2,000 goal set up by war
council in the campus fourth war
loan was topped by $600.
In a campus poll conducted by
Roberta Burgess, ignorance of the
current war was revealed. Not
only were busy junior women un
able to answer such pertinent
questions as, "Who is the allied
commander-in-chief of the Medi
terranean theater of war," but
wise seniors as well.
The Nebraskan, dated March 28,
bid a sad farewell to the army
ASTs, but March 31 the head
lines read "Army Reinstates AST
on Campus." The latter was an
April Fool (afporoill) vision. Also
in that edition was the true story
regarding Geraldine McKinsey,
who won first place at the re
gional discussion contest held in
Austin, Tex.
News that the Union was to re
open the Pan American room met
with favorable student approval.
Pat Lahr announced that the cafe
teria would be redecorated and re
named the Campusline.
"Carmen" and Orchesis rated
headlines in the April 26 edition,
along with the continual and per
petual story which pondered the
coming of spring. As the headline
went, so followed the stories
"Spring Is Just Around Which
Corner Was It?"
Dorothy Anderson, carrying a
basket of bright colored vege
tables, was presented at the ag
open house as Goddess.
Ivy Day activities and the Mor
tar Boards stepped into the May
spotlight. Fifteen Mortar Boards
were masked to make up thf
largest group of that organization
to date. Two May Queens were
presented, breaking all Ivy Day
precedents.
Big news of the semester, how
ever, was the item which attracted
all eyes and interested all groups
the final examination schedule.
Coeds Pick Summer Attire
For School, Vacation, Work
BY ADRIENNE WAGGONER
One more week and school will
be out. Coeds will be heading
home, to get ready to come back
for the summer session, go on
vacation trip, or help the war ef
fort by working. A wardrobe for
either of these three alternatives
can be easily assembled from the
wide selection being displayed in
the stores.
If those extra credit hours are
essential for graduation at an ac
celerated date, the question arises
what clothes to bring back for the
hot days of July in the classroom 7
Naturally cottons hold the lime
ilght. Gingham, chambray, bal
Ion cloth, and butcher linen make
appropriate school dresses. Plain
or checked cotton shirts with cot
ton skirts are another suggestion.
If the winter school session has
brought a weariness of bobby
socks and saddle shoes, why not
try a pair of the non-rationed play
shoos for cool campus wear? They
are being shown in plain colors or
checks. -.
Pique Is Good.
For those coeds lucky enough to
be dating during this manpower
shortage, white pique, banded with
cotton lace, makes an excellent
date dress. Also smart in white is
the waffle pique, made with low
square neck, and trimmed with
daisies of the same material.
Rayon paberdine for a suit or
dress will stand up well under
warm weather conditions, and al
ways look cool and crisp.
For the lucky girl who is plan
ntng a trip, there is a grand selec
tion. A white shorts-suit with
bare midriff and back will focus
all eyes on the girl playing tennis.
On the golf course, . stripped
cotton shirtwaist dress, with ac
tion sleeves for extra swing, will
do double duty. It will facilitate
making that hole-in-one, and then
be equally appropriate for lunch
eon at tne ciuDnouse arierwara.
On the beach or around the pool
are seen numerous attractive
bathing suits. The majority of
them have bare midriffs, and the
trend seems to be away from the
full-skirted effect. Polynesian
prints are very good. For a Fourth
of July dance at the club, be
patriotic In a red, white and blue
cotton gaberdine.
Jobs Are Fashionable.
Working will be fashionable
this summer, and the coed who
works can be fashionable on the
Job in a butcher-weave spun rayon
with pearl buttons, fly-front
skirt, and hip-pockcts. A tri-color
gingham check, buttoning to the
waist with skirt fullness all to the
front is also ideal. A washable
spun rayon dress with narrow
stripes, drawstring neck and big
pockets will be cool, casual, and
easy to wear.
colors so that accessories are in

white, and blue is one good com
bination, while beige blends equal
ly well with navy and brown, and
black and white is the unbeatable
duo for smartness. Finally, re
