THE NEBRASKAN

BY BET KING
Crawl out of that mud p-.ddle
and get into the swing of things.
This is definitely the week-end
for such goings on.
The Betas have big things
planned. I rom here Jack Clemens
looks like one of the busier boys
Saturday night the lucky gal is
DG Ellie Detweiler. Babs Sten
ger, Alpha Phi beauty, rates the
bunday night deal.
The Tri Delts have rolled out
the welcome mat for Midge Wall's
fiance, Lt. George Patterson, who
arrived Wednesday for a visit fol
lowing his discharge. This should
be a whee of a week-end for
Midge.
Chi Ohhhhh Margy Amend was
asking everyone in the Union the
other day if they knew Al Chne,
new Sig Chi pledge. Seems Margy
wasn't exactly sure who he was,
and she had a coke date with him.
Margy isn't the only one having
.man trouble of one sort or an
other. Blonde Louise Rawley of
the Triple Deltas is involved in
an Army-Navy triangle. Army Lt.
Johnny Gibbney and NRO Dick
Freethy constitute quite a knotty
problem.
Reversed Problem
To reverse things a little, the
ATC's are having gal trouble.
Mary Lancaster of the Theta Kite
heard that a certain man from
Boulder was coming down to see
Saturday's game and just inci
dentally Mary. The Taus feel that
"that's just tough" 'cause they
have other plans for her. The
fight in the stands should be as
good as the one on the field.
While we're in the Theta region
could Peg Miles sudden inter
est in affairs of a culinary nature
have anything to do with the fact
that Beta John Smedley is hash
ing at the Theta house?
Come Rain Come Shine
All this rain makes some peo
ple want to stay under a roof, but
not Fiji Jack Briggs and Jacqe
Merritt, Kappa. They went pic
nicking Wednesday evening. The
weather hasn't affected Alpha Xi
Clepne Reetz planned trip to
Sioux City either. Fiance Claude
Blankenship is the big attraction
there.

WSSF Aids in Reconstruction
Of World Education Thru AUF
Sharing proportionately with
the National War Fund and Ne
braskans for Servicemen in the
receipts from the all university
fund drive beginning Monday is
the World Student Service fund.
The WSSF is the way in which
American students participate in
the enterprise of aiding students
all over the world. It is an ed
ucational and fund raising agency
which was given its present name
in 1941. Work done with money
raised for the fund is done on an
international, interracial, non
political and non-sectarian basis.
Resting entirely on students
and faculty of American univer
sities, the responsibility should be
considered not as a responsibility
but as a privileee. American
students have been spared during
the war from combat, invasion,
terrorization, dictatorship and
hardship.
WSSF Purposes.
Among the ournoses of the
WSSF in the post-war era are
providing direct relief for stu
dents and professors who were
victims of the war: helDine to
establish and strengthen student
co-operatives and social services;
supplying books and scholarship
ntion of Arch Briggs and B. J
Mahan. This off-again-on-again
stuff is so confusing.
Flame-topped Ginny Hamilton,
Gamma Phi, is minus the third
finger sparkle, but she's decided
that friendship is a wonderful
thing ... at least for the present
Bright Lights?
The bright lights of Omaha are
luring ATO Phil Oxley away from
home. That lure isn't accented by
the fact that Omaha is also the
home of Gamma Phi Myra Lee
Haden, is it?
Flash a certain prominent
Mortar Board seems to have for
goten the AWS rules and come in
45 minutes late. The big question
is will she be courted, or will
she serve at Myra Col berg's wed
ding tonight?
The Los Angeles street rail
ways system has installed two
way radiotelephone service in all
of its 22 service trucks. The
trucks are thus able to communi
cate with central headquarters.

aid; and building student rehabil
itation centers. To do this work,
the actual task will be given to
groups or individuals in the coun
try concerned. One group will be
"initiating" personnel, experi
enced and mature workers who
will serve as a hcaquarters staff.
The other group will be made up
of younger persons still in the
student category.
The reconstruction of univer
sity life is a far larger and more
complicated task than merely giv
ing aid to students. Thoughtful
university youth in Europe and
Asia, influenced by the suffer
ing they have gone through, are
concluding that universities have
failed in their purposes.
Reconstruction.
Since the task of the WSSF this
year is reconstruction instead of
relief, the budget "has been dou
bled and each student is being
asked to donate twice as much as
last year. The quota for Ne
braska is $3,000, or equal the
amount of the goal for the entire
AUF drive. Nebraska students
can give enough to the fund to
assure the $3,000 WSSF being
raised.

go a long way. Skirts and sweat
ers seem popular, but when topped
off with a pipe, that's one of the
things I came to college for but
I'm hoping it is not a regular
scene.
If these profs don't snow us
under, there should be a good
roof raised someplace. Not for
getting that we are potential gen
tlemen, tho, I guess those roofs
will only go a mile high.
