OPEN LETTER TO THE
TOWERS THAT BE:
This idea is not our baby. A
nrouD of Grand Island fans
brought it to our attention but we
think it has some merit.
The gentlemen from G. I. were
enthusing about their unbeaten
high school squad. Among them
was the father of one player who
happens to be one of. the state's
outstanding backs.
"This only happens to a town
once in a blue moon," somebody
said,- half apologizing for their
enthusiasm. "But we think the
Lincoln high-Grand Island game
will be the best prep game of the
year. All of us want to see our
boy play. Nebraska has an open
date the week-end of this game
Why couldn't it be played in Me
morial stadium? It would draw
at least 20 thousand people."
Perhans that estimate was
overly optimistic but we're in
clined to think not. Why couldn't
the prep game of the year be
played where everyone, both
Lincolnites and Grand Islanders,
could be sure of a seat and a de
cent view of their boys? This
seems to us a worthwhile oppor
tunity for Nebraska .to build a
tremendous amount of good will
More than that, it would mean a
lot to those high school players
to play on stadium sod, use
stadium dressing rooms, and per
haps to personally meet Ne
braska coaches who should act as
hosts. (Remember, the Huskers
have an open date.)
We are even so radical as to
suggest that it might be developed
into an annual affair with a Lin
coln team playing host to the out
standing outstate team each year.
San Antonio city prep champions
are played in Alamo stadium be
fore crowds as high as 25 or 30
thousand. Why not the year's
outstanding prep game in Ne
braska's Memorial stadium?
For one thing an annual prep
game would be a memorable day
for each player. Personal con
tact with the coaches and an in
sight into university facilities
might even help most of these
boys to decide to continue their
education here in their home
state.
Proselyting? Not at all! This
Is an age-old device for public
relations. The same theory is be
hind the music convention, the
high school journalism convention
and others now sponsored by
various university departments.
We would simply be showing
prospective students that Ne
braska is interested in them.
A high school classic could be
come a great fall event for the
state. Certainly it seems a chance
to -improve statewide public rela
tions. As the Grand Island fans
wistfully asked, isn't it something
to consider? And now!
Straight Stuff
Herb XJish was issuing invita
tions to Sig Alph brothers and
their dates for an open house
at the home of his grandparents
in Manhattan. Incidcntly, his
relatives are vacationing in Min
nesota. DU Stable Stomp
Partying at the DU house Fri
day night were Marilyn Stebbins
and Joan Fankhauser with Skip
Stahl" and Al Lawson, Bonnie
Washington with Bob Meyer, Jo
Ackerman and "Lover Boy"
Goodwin. Elsie Clapp with Jack
Hays and Sheila Curran escorted
by John Bumstead.
Flash!!!
As fraternity brothers dropped
dead from shock. Bob Berkshire,
ATO calmly stated that he spent
an enjoyable evening with his
second date of the year. . . Jo
Noble, Theta pledge. Congratula
tions, Bob, keep up the good
work. ,
Omaha Bound
Taking in the AK-SAR-BEN
ball Saturday night were Ginny
Purdham with nance lxnne
Hanish, Nancy Watkins and pin
mate Curt Hasselbalch and
Joyce Nebergall with Bob Moch
ga. Socialite Milton Mack is also
taking in the big ball this week
end. His booking agent recently
announced Milt is attending not
one, but two cocktail parties and
dinner with his more aggressive
friends in .Omaha.
The Phi Delt house party went
over with a bang Friday night.
Couples attending were Windy
Corkin, and Dug "Snowball"
Nelson, Ann Chamberlin with
Jack Meehan, Nancy Glynn and
Tom Brownlee, "Zanny Bachus
with Jim Lyle, Ruth Stewart and
Bob McGeehee, Terry Lane with
Ed Donegan and Chuck Brighton
with his girl, Mary Vieg, down
from Grand Island.
Things are Hard All Over
Parker Tracy IKE has had his
brothers get blind dates for him
since the first of the year. Are
there still such bashful boys on
the campus?
It seems Bill Poe has a new
angle on getting dates, hanging
around the Cornhusker office
watching appointment cards
proves successful, eh Bill? The
lucky girl is L Marie Tegtmerir.
The Eternal Triangle
Joan Bergman. Alpha Phi
pledge, was seen with Bill Eythe
at the ball Saturday night, while
Friday night was reserved for
Al Potter.
Mizzon Bound
Traveling to Missouri by train
are Sig Alphs.Bill LeRoy, Roy
Linwall and Chuck Dugan. Could
it be more than the game that
is attracting these three stags?
Also making the trip are Gene
Deeter and Sally Johnson. Theta
pledge, Mary Kuppinger and Bill
Foshier, Beanie Gallup with
Jackie Oschner and Fig Flagg
with Ellie Lykke. The highlight
of this trip will be a Saturday

How Abdulmalik came upon thid
particular issue of the now dead

a mystery, and what use he has
for jewelry is unexplained, also
Perhaps he was a subscriber, con-

But anyhow, he can read and
