BY LOUISE McDILL
The DLR signs plastered on
various posts and buildings all
over the Ag campus caused Ag
gie curiosity to hit an all time
high. Students racked their brains
to try to figure what the signifi
cance of the mysterious symbols
was. LS MFT, UMT, UNESCO,
WPA and now DRL!
One curious Ag student in
qu.Ved whether it was some pub
licity stunt thought up by The
Daily Nebraskan. Another was
sure he had a sure clue and re
marked, "Oh, it's probably some
thing the Amikitas are doing."
Questions Asked
The prize incident took place
in a Dairy class. When the pro
fessor asked for questions before
a quiz, one student, having seen
the mysterious signs in the Dairy
building, asked the professor to
please tell him what DRL meant
before the quiz.
As it turned out, the DRL per
tained to neither dairy or Amiki
tas, but it was the theme for a
Union dance. Dance, relax and
listen is the decoded message told
by the signs, in case some may
still not be informed. Ag stu
dents will probably take one part
of the message seriously, at least.
They can certainly "relax"' now
that the mystery of DRL has been
solved.
