How Do You Feel?
Anyone who is still able to attend classes must have no
ticed that attendance in most of them is slight, to say the
least. Those of us who, up until now, have escaped the flu
bug, are beginning to wonder how long we are going to be
immune.
Being forced to associate with a crowd of people in classes
and in the halls many times a day is not the best way to
keep healthy, when all those around you cough, sneeze and
sniffle. The figures on the number of cases of influenza have
not been fully tabulated as yet, but they are on the increase
If the epidemic continues, we can only hope that " the
health authorities dismiss classes for a few days to assure
safety to those who are not yet in bed.
Some of the organized houses have set up rooms as hos
pital wards for their members. In other houses, students
are isolated in their rooms with large signs saying, "Keep
Out."
Even if the flu germ is not strong enough to prevent
classes, still-healthy remnants of the Daily Nebraskan staff
inform us that it rright be strong enough to keep them from
putting out a paper. The absence of able-bodied reporters
makes us wonder if newspapermen have the resistance
ability of other people. The prevailing motto of those re
maining is, however, in true journalistic style: "The paper
must come out."

If you are one of those early
risers who insists on keeping up
with the latest in the way of 8:00
editions of classroom lectures, you
need a good weather forecaster to
help you select your initial outfit
for the day. KFAB has just the
thing to fill the bill here, for at
7-ao -r.Vi morning you may find
,ut the exact temperature of that
cutting wind that usually escorts
you thru the campus on your way
to class.
The popular Breakfast Club will
put that get-up-and-go quality in
you if anything will this morning.
This ever growing favorite of ra
dio millions has the nod for su
preme radio listening. With Don
McNeil leading the way in his free
and easy style, the Breakfast Club
which may be heard over KFOR
at 8:15 continues to rate at the
top of the list of radio's variety
shows.
As most of us have a pretty well
filled schedule for the rest of the
morning, we may skip over the
programs offered until noon. At
Uhis time Baukhage gives out the

latest in worm events as ne nas
seen them from his post in Wash
ington. If the noon hour finds
you in downtown Lincoln, take
advantage of the situation and
stop in at the KFOR studio (sixth
floor of the Stuart building), and
you may have the chance to actu- I

Starting at 7:00 this evening,
KFAB has lined up a list of pro

By snapping your dial to 1110 at
7:00 tonight, you may usher into
your living room a full hour of

parade at that time is Big Town,
which is followed by Mel Blanc's
show and Bill Henry, who reviews
the news.
Tonight is another hockey night
for all those who follow the ac
tions of those popular Omaha
Knights. The Omaha club is still
hanging on to the No. 1 position
in the League, and their game
with St. Paul promises to be one
of the best of the year. Hockey
fans had better take advantage of
the opportunity while they can for

to be played.
Sanroma's Name, Piano
Concerto Draw Comment
BY SAM WARREN
Drawing the Lincoln Symphony
Orchestra season rapidly to a
close, pianist Jules Sanroma will
appear with the orchestra as the
season s last guest artist, tomor
row at 8:30 p. m. in the Stuart
theatre. In April, the orchestra
will appear in its final concert,
presenting two local auditions
winners as soloists.
Much to frequently we are faced with certain aspects of
our school and state that do little to nourish what is left
of our pride in Nebraska and its university. Two of them
confronted us Saturday.
Upon return from an unoffical one-day vacation Satur
day thanks to the current "spread of flu the first thing we i company Mr. Sanroma in Rach
did was to pick up copies of the Daily Nebraskan that we
had missed. (You'll excuse our avid interest.)
First, we were delighted to learn that Nebraska's junior
representative to the Senate still opposed the appointment
of David Lilienthal to the chairmanship of the Atomic
Energy Commission. We hadn't expected Senator Wherry
. to change his mind nor did we resent his opinion necessarily
because it differs with those of outstanding national lead
ers who know Lilienthal best. What really made us swell
with pride was to know that our senator, opposing the ap
pointment, stated that he had not revealed his reasons nor
did he intend to now or in the future. Atta boy, Ken, don't
you let era worm anything out of you.If you say you have
reasons, that's good enough. We believe you. After all, what
stand you take is surely more important that the reasons
you have for taking that stand.
As if this weren't enough to make one give sickly l-can't-help-it-l-was-born-here
smiles to students who come from
Kansas or Wyoming, we discovered that the AUF had raised
all of $500 for the Red Cross drive Just $1,300 short of
its goal.
Experience has taught that it does little good to howl
about such things even when howling is justified. The
drive was announced, the needs explained, the plans laid,
and the solicitors went to work the rest was up to you.
In this, the age of psychological approach, perhaps the
best thing to do would be to pat you all nicely on the heads,
and say, "Now you've given $500 (all 10,000 of you), that's
pretty good, but let's see if we can't give just a little more,
huh?"
But we're not going to pat you on the heads, unless it be
with a leaded baseball bat. If you can feel that a few coke
dates or personal trinkets are more important in the scheme
of things than what the Red Cross does, your head should
not be patted with a bat it should be carefully examined.
Last night's tabulations showed that AUF will fall short
of reaching the goal by $300, unless that amount is solicited
today. Most of the workers have already turned in their
money and receipts which means that the $300 will have to
come from Lincoln students, students not living in organized
houses, and students who have already contributed to the
drive.
What will be done will be known tonight. If members of
the student body are alert and feel their moral responsibility
they will find time this afternoon to stop at the AUF booth
in the Union to contribute. If they do not, it will have to
go on the record that the university, a school with some
10,000 students, could only raise $1,500 for the American
Red Cross drive an average of fifteen cents a person.

Making its second appearance of
the season, the orchestra will play
a symphonic overture, a tone
poem and a suite of ballet music.
Under the direction of conductor
Leo Kopp, the orchestra will ac-
maninoffs second piano concerto.
Concerto Popular
Mr. Sanroma's choice of the
Rachmaninoff concerto will come
as a welcome relief from the
numerous "popular" arrangements
of various isolated themes lifted
from the three movements by Tin
Pan Alley. James Melton's latest
radio theme song comes as an
added debasement to "Pale Moon"
and the several condensed two-
piano arrangements catalogued by
record companies this year.
A result of Republic's film "I'll
Always Love You," the sudden
up-surge in popularity of this
best-loved Rachmaninoff concerto
was reflected in a report sent our
way by RCA Victor which showed
Rubenstein's new recording of it
the best-selling album of the year.
At any rate, the performance
tomorrow evening will be gratify
ing not only for the authenticity
of it, but also because the sym
phony reportedly has prepared
the orchestral part better than
any of its other three selections.
What's In a Name?
Most interesting topic surround
ing Sanroma's appearance here is
that of his name. Christened by
his Puetro Rican parents with
what proved to be the longest
name among today's concert ar
tists, he is being billed in this part
of the country as "Jules San
roma," altho as far as we can as-!
certain he's still billed elsewhere
by his regular concert name,
"Jesus-Maria," the first part pro
nounced hay-soos. Just this week
his New York manager advised us
in a letter, "He is not called
'Jules' ." And a week ago Sunday,
the New York Philharmonic an
nounced him as Jesus-Maria San
roma. It's your turn next. The
way he makes his piano speak is
what is important, of course, and
not the way he says his name.
Single admission tickets will be
available at the Stuart inside box
office tomorrow from 1 p. m. until
the 8:30 curtain. Price including
tax is $3. The remainder of the
tickets are held by student and
city subscription holders.
