THE NEBRASKAN
Life In Love
By Pvt. Ralph P. Murcenharen
Life goes on as usual in Love
Library; or I might say quieter
than usual, since about sixty Air
Corps Reservists are on furlough.
Even the Pre-Meds have settled
down and are to be seen any hour
of any day, pouring over some
book (comic) or set of notes. It
is amazinng how much more en
ergy can be expended when Medi
cal School, not aid men, is the
next task. Their worries center
around two questions: "Where
are we going?" and "When will
we get a furlough?" The only
answer we have found to these
queries was in a confidential bul
letin we read "You'll find out
soon enough!" t
Thanksgiving day was a grate
ful relief from the usual drudgery
of school life. Our Thanksgiving
dinner was a huge success due not
only to the magnificent food, but
also to the graciousness of Miss
Pat Lahr, in allowing us the use
of the ballroom.
Present at the dinner were all
the officers, non-commissioned of
ficers, their wives and civilian
employes of the unit. Also pres
ent were Lt. Cook's junior officer,
"Little Joe," and Sgt. Anderson's
newly arrived "Little Sarge." The
unit also entertained, as its guests,
the wives of the enlisted men.
Towne Club Entertains.
Saturday night the Towne Club
provided the most outstanding bit
of news for the unit with their
annual fall party.
Entertainment was provided by
the Towne Club sextet and the
Pre-Meds from the library. The
Pre-Meds were Pvt. Josephson,
Pvt. Neilly, and Pvt. Moller. They
dramatized the well known poem,
"The Face on the Bar Room
Floor." Pvt. Josephson, as the
voluptuous, young damsel (the
face) was assured of many votes
in the election of "Pep Queen"
next year. Pvt. Moller played the
part of the perennial drunkard
as only he can. Pvt. Neilly nar
rated in the best W. C. Fields
manner.
Takeoffs on several radio pro
grams were also presented by the
trio.
Question of the week What
AST man tried to line up the
ticket buyers at the Lincoln
theater in alphabetical order last
Saturday night?

pounds, and heavyyweight.
Coach Otopalik hopes to sched
ule some meets for the Cyclone
grapplers this winter.
Comedy ...
(Continued from Page 1.)
Mama gave a fine character per
formance. In many places her act
formance. In many lpaces her act
ing held the show together and
kept it moving.
Dorothy Reilly cast as the
daughter, Emma, has freshness
and sparkle. She will probably
develop into a valuable actress
with a little more experience.
Both Geoffrey Gass and San-
ford Finkelstein as Trooper Bren
dle and Jake, respectively, made
the most of their parts. While
their acting was not exceptional
it was adequate.
The audience laughingly ap
proved "Papa Is All" as amusing
and entertaining. Tho it started
slowly in the first act, the second
and third acts were packed with
action and laughs.
Restrictions on the manufacture
