Christmas vacation starts offi
cially Saturday noon, but if you're
leaving at any time from now on
be careful that you don't get tram
pled in the rush of collegians try
ing to get out of town. It might
be interesting to imagine what all
the students are going to be doing
for the next couple of weeks. (It
might be interesting, though it
probably wc4vt, but read on
sucker.)
The two extreme types of stu
dents will continue, or in some
cases just begin, to peruse their
textbooks. The PBK's, or is it
KPB's, will continue their mental
labor trying to improve their 96
averages. At the other end of the
scholastic scale those unfortunates
who received windowed -envoi opes
from the Dean of Student Affairs
this week may find it well to open
their books during vacation, creas
ing the pages carefully to prevent
breaking the binding. In fact T. J.
said in his letter, "... students in
considerable number have used
a portion of their Christmas vaca
tion to advantage in reviewing
subjects in which they are having
difficulty ... I urge you to try
it."
Others will go from the campus
to find some means of picking up
a little of that root of all evil over
the holidays. The department
stores will probably need as many
extra employees after Christmas
to exchange gifts as they will be
fore to sell them. Many unique
jobs are available at this season.
Several music majors hoDe that at
Christmas time Western Union
will have openings in positions
where vocal ability is important.

Thigh, states that he woull like

BY KILLJOY.
When I was a youngster I
used to get up tarly in the morn
ing and rush down to open my
presents to see what Santa Claus
had left me.
During the war, everything was
different. Shortages were all
around us, the stoppage of pro
duction made Christmas seem dif
ferent. There is no war. No presents.
Eefore I used to get enjoyment
from eating too much at a big
Christmas dinner. Now I can't
eat a,.big dinner Hangover.
Catching the Spirit.
On Christmas Eve, I hope I can
catch the spirit and cheerfulness
of the season, especially the
spirits. ,
Before sugar plums used to
dance before my eyes. Now all I
can see is my nose. But Christ
mas means more than these trivial
items. There are formals, parties.
ana jolly good times. I come face
to face with vacation with a mo
tive to study and a desire to play.
But After Vacation.
But remember, two and one-
half weeks after we come back
from vacation that wonderful
time that freshmen dread, sopho
mores abhor, juniors cannot stand
and seniors know darned well
they can't live through, is here.
FINAL WEEK!
When all you kiddies write that
letter to Santa Claus asking for a
new convertible, fur coat or eli
gible bachelor, be sure to include
a brief wish that you, too, can
exist through three hour finals.
"Have f un while you mav! The
New Year has great things in
store for all.

Many Hucksters, Huskers I
mean, say that they are traveling
across country to see their true
loves. When they come back a
large percentage instead of speak

saying, "None and Lonely."
A few people on the campus
may devote the holidays to Christ
mas Cheer. I mean the type of
person who says, "Enough of "this
fooling around. Let's get down to
some serial drinking." They'll see
to it that the next fortnight will be
no holiday for Tom and Jerry. By
January 6 they won't even be able
to tell black from white, but the
Black and White will tell on them.
They'll return to the campus tap
