Welcome to your Student Union
"Nit-Wit Parade," the unofficial,
off the record, never-before-in-the-hislory-of-literature
stories of
the private lives of your Student
Union Board Members. These
"character" sketches will be pub
lished in three installments, re
gardless of libel suits and editorial
i st we hope!
t Mary Ellen Schroeder,
. known in social circles as
the "Icebox Queen." Hailing from
Chappell, the biggest little wheat
center in the state, Mary Ellen
caused many a repercussion, con
cussion and discussion in high
school days, when (she says) she
played every instrument in the
percussion section of the band.
Quite a strenuous job for such a
little girl! (P.S.: Mary Ellen is
now sponsor of the Student Union
Music Committee.)
Her, high stepping antics as a
drum majorette once got her into
trouble when she tried to paint
her uncle's car and got her foot
stuck in the bucket. But no
scaredy eat, Mary Ellen quickly
recovered and very shortly there
after was almost tossed out of the
freshman class for trying to
frighten her classmates with a
mouse she caught. Yes, it's been
an eventful life for Miss Schroe
der, but she has now retired to
her duties as director of Union
music activities, because, as she
says, "music melts the soul."
Our second personality of the
week? None other than your
friend, Hyron Booper. Whoops,

committee. He hails from Naw
folk, as they say in the deep South,
and from all reports, is still a
very eligible "Eligible Bachelor."
Said eligibility dates back to
the primary grades in Norfolk
elementary, when he won a class
presidency over a little female
classmate. All the girls swore to
stop speaking to him for seven
years, and he's managed to elude
them ever since.
When asked why he should be
head of the Dance committee. By

Wells Known For Articles
Well known for his features and
pictures in newspapers and relig
ious periodicals. Wells has made
repeated trips through Asia, Rus
sia and Europe. He first worked
as a sports cartoonist and re
porter, later as an editorial car
toonist and writer and then he
began his years of foreign travel
and feature writing. For many
years his work has been regularly
syndicated by many newspapers
and religious periodicals.
Today he has turned his inter
est and abilities to a dramatic,
modern presentation of the Chris
tian message and has innovated a
ors and cttme to NU in her later
years, where she is in charge of
the Publicity and Hospitality of
the Union. Which means that if
we wish to get this by her strict
censorship, we should conclude
further account of her private life
and continue next week. Until
then.
Come to the Union; it suits!
timely new approach to the old
story.
Upon the suggestions and with
the assistance of many prominent
Christian laymen and pas"tors,
Wells organized the Conferences
on Christ and World Need, which
have become one of the most in
fluential and successful commu
nity religious enterprises in the
current national scene. Uniquely
equipped with a versatile array of
talents, "he has come," as one
newspaper editor has put it, "for
just such an hour as this."
