Announcement of the engagement of Miss Marjorie Settell,
daughter of Dr. and Mrs. A. R. Settell of Bloomfield, to William R.
reterson, son of Mr. and Mrs. T. S. Peterson of Evanston, 111., was
made known Friday evening. Miss Settell, a senior, is a member
of Alpha Xi Delta. Mr. Peterson, who served with the navy for
thirty-five months, is also attending the university.
There s no getting around the
fact that the women on this cam
pus are athletes. And if you don't
believe me, all you have to do
is wander over and watch some
of the intramural games in which
the girls are now participating.
Here you may see the cross
section of American womanhood
the pride of the Union. Un
doubtedly the most to be feared is
the zealous type who runs madly
at her opponent snarling viciously.
Watch her carefully. With all the
strength she can muster, she
makes one last drive, sinks her
bared teeth into the rival's de
fenseless shoulder, and then lies
panting on the ground, feigning
innocence as the referee's whistle
blows.
Now notice the hearty good
sportsman. Her warm handshake
is aimed to cripple, and that
hearty back slap has put many a
potential Pauline Betz limping to
the white-walled corridors of a
hospital.
The gay collegiate athlete has
a ne'er-to-be forgotten charm all
her own. Always aware of spec
tators on the sidelines, she spends
her time cavorting gracefully
around the field putting on a one
woman show.
Not to be forgotten are the
rooters on the sidelines. Ask any
of them, they will tell you how
hard it is to win a game. Hard
on them that is. Theirs is much
the toughest job..
But far be it from me ridicule
the girls they have a good time
(they claim) and heck, it's all in
the game.

Crib Offers
New Twist;
Vic Sticks!
By Bob Gillan.
Far be it from me to complain
about conditions on th? campus
here at the dear old U. of N, but
I think that something should be
done about the Juke-box in the
crib. Now, I am afraid that I have
missed the last few hit parades
(it comes at the same time as
Rhodora Faversham Girl Labor
Racketeer, my favorite program)
but as I remember it all the songs
didn't end with five minutes of
thump-tittledce - thump-tittledee-thump.
It may be part of the ad
vertising campaign but it will
never take the place in my affec
tions held by LSMFT.
This may not seem like a press
ing problem at first glance or
even second or third but it really
poses quite a problem (A little to
left Miss Problem, that's it. Now
hold it.) There are a great many
students who judge our dear alma
mater by the Union exclusively,
because that is all they see of it.
Memories.
I can see the scene now. The
old grads of some of our institu
tions of higher learning gather in
some distant den of iniquity. The
Wisconsin Alum says "We had
beer in our student union." "That's
nothing," tops one of. the Iowa
men, "we had a doorman." "But
have you heard about Nebraska"
one of them whispers, "Their juke
box sticks at the end of the rec
ord." All this is in a .tone that
highly paid doctors usually re
serve for a discussion of a rare
Psychopathic malady.
As a constructive sugeslion,
they might get some of the wee
folk that are grading my English
papers to stand there and punch
the bottom . . . Kicking the juke
box might be turned into an in
tramural sport with appropriate
prizes. Its nothing like Sextath
Ion, but then what is?

BY TWO FIFTHS OF FIVE.
"Do you have a date for Home
coming?" or "Then what are you
doing Christmas?
Foresight undoubtedly is a vir
tue, but what poor mortal can be
expected to prearrange destiny
months in advance. So far as dat
ing is concerned, the element ot
chance had been ruled out also
most men on the campus.
Dating today is, in a word, a
' debacle." The man (we use that
word loosely) who is the "firstes
with the mostest for th2
farthest away" is in.
Same as Dying.
I suppose that a girl likes to
plan on a date but the ridiculous
situation which exists today, dates
in advance that is, seems to nie to
be the same as dying. When tbe
time comes, ycu just do it.
Since the female element oa the
campus has chosen to reduce dat
ing to a virtual lottery, they might
as well admit to their hypocrisy
and date on a lottery basis.
Each man should be assigned a
Musical Variety

Program Today
Presented by the School of
Music today in the second pro
gram ot the f aculty Kecital series,
Miss Mary Louise Boehm, Miss
Sarah Davis and Mr. Donald Lpntz
will offer a variety of instrumental
music. Piano, cello and flute se
lections comprise the program
which begins at 4 p.m. in the
Union Ballroom.
ODeninff the recital with a rlln
sonata bv Corelli. Miss Davis will
make her second appearance on a
faculty series. She joined the staff
a year ago at this time.
Sonata
Mr. Lentz Will hp hparrl in
Reinecke's flute "Sonata Undine"
and in a shorter solo dipcp pn-
titled "Poem," by Griifes.
Concluding the program. Miss
Boehm will first nlav Rach'c

with tWO ChoDin eturlps Trip firct

number, and then each girl given
her quota o numbers for the
month. This system might help to
alleviate the name situation at
hour dances. (Author's note: Any
one that will go as low as to dale
a girl a month in advance surely
wouldn't mind having a number
on or maybe something trivial like
a ring through his nose.
Names.
Even though some of the coeds
have a hard time remembering
names, I am sure that the ma
jority of the women on this cam
pus could remember a number.
This might help to remedy a sit
uation such as the one that de
veloped on the steps of Residence
Halls last week.
A certain girl was saying good
night to her one and only for that
night. She looked up dollar signs
sparkling in her eyes and while
tenderly shaking his hand whis
pered softly "I had a wonderful
time SAM, and won't you piease
call again next month." Not tiust
ing himself to speak, JIM turned
and walked down the steps.
We wish to congratulate those
few remaining remnants of the
male population who have re
tained some semblance of integ
rity by refusing to attempt to date
before Monday night. If these last
few normal beings would be in
terested in joining the Stay Away
From Women club please notiiy
me at once.
