By Eilie Swanson.
While the female population of
the campus is saving their money
for the big night, the men are
sitting back preparing lor the
worst. And if you haven't got a
date yet, don't worry boys; this
is only Wednesday,
Also there is much prepara
. tion for about ten different parties
to be given as the last fling be
fore vacation. The Thetas plan
to celebrate in a big way despite
heavy competition from . other
houses. Bobbie Stryker will im
port Gordie Johnson from Omaha
for the occasion, and Coll Quigley
will divide her time between her
own party and the Sig Alph house
party. Her date is Dick Nash.
A few others attending the Sig
Alph party will be Harry Gallo
way with Shirley Lierk, Herb
Gish and Marge Cherney and
Betty Lysinger and Lew Rein
hardt who will divide their time
between the Sig Alph and the Pi
Thi house, (confusing . . . I know,
Off the subect of the numerous
parties of the weekend temporar
ily, we must not forget to mention
a few new steadies and pinnings
of late. The Betas were surprised
to find out, by accident, that Bob
Schulte had pinned Charne Welles
last Sunday. Also of interest is the
new steady combination of Babs
Call and Joe Shultz. Meanwhile,
Kog Stewart seems to be very con
tentedly occupying Marge Ben
son's time.
Unusual Candy Passing.
One rather unusual candy pas'
sing occured Monday night at the
Theta house. Nicky Sandberg
passed the candy and Theta sis
tcrs, inquired to whom she was
pinned. "I'm married," she an
swered . . ." as of August 3."
The Kappas entertained the Sigma
Nus for the candy passing of
Keith "Mutt" DeLashmutt and
Dorothy Jane Duncan, and Ruth
Goldberg and Danny Katzman
passed candy at the S.D.T. house.
Going to the Mortar Board Ball
Fri.iay night will be B. L. Mauch
and Mark Hargraves, but that
isn't all there is to it. Mark in
formed B. L. that she would have
to remind him at least once a day
of ti:e date so she has been busy
everyday sending telegrams, sing
ing messages and other oddities so
he won't forget. Also attending the
M. B. Ball, but under normal
circumstances will be Barb Cy
preanron and Bob Brown, Candy
Jones and Jack Donaldson and
Joan Fankhauser and Chick
Story.
Dinner Parties.
Along with the various, house
parties occurring Saturday, we
find almost as many dinners on
Sunday, Peggy Cowles will be
with Walt 'Loomis at the Beta
dinner and Anne Jennings with
Di.k Levine. The Kappa Sigs will
give their Sweetheart party the
same evening and Donna Alfrey
will he with Randy Ewing. Bill
Tyson will escort Dorothy Becken
hauser. Only one date is now
available for the ATO Buffet
Dinner and that is Cub Clem with
Maralic Peterson.
' .Since space is running short.
some of the rest of the parties
will have to be included later
Things are confused enough now.

pie i'int have telephones, movies,
and radios for entertainment, and
resorted to story-telling after the
day's work as a pleasant pastime.
The more incredible the stories
were, the better!"
Carmer spiked his talk with
many interesting and humorous
tales, a few were even fabulous
ones. He concluded by saying,
"These stories are not altogether
of the past. We still tell them, and
they still entertain listeners all
over the country. There is a tre
mendous interest in folklore at
this time. Returning G.I.'s de
voted to the American way seek
for stories related to their home
land. The American artist can find
no better source for inspiration
than in the folklore that lives in
this country."
