'Fifth time is a charm" is the
by-word of Lorn Lou Bornholdt
snd Knobby Tlemann who finally
passed the candy Monday night.
The pin has been flitting back
and forth since last year but
Lorna wore it only during vaca
tions to make sure it would "wear
veil."
The freshmen do it. the sopho
mores do it and even' the faculty
is getting entangled. Latest one
seems to be the marriage of Mis
............ vi me ijllKHMl UfJai l-
ment and Mr. Natanson of the
Philosophy department. The event
took place during final week.
To conclude the romance sec
tion we'll mention the new one
brewing in the bacti department
between Eileen Hepperly and
Chuck Arbke. It's amazing what
a common interest in fungi will
do.
Come second semester and cam
pus queens run rampant. Already
people are plugging their Jr.-Sr.
Prom Queen candidates. And
speaking of plugs Tex Beneke's
orchestra hardly needs one, but
he seems to be one of the most
colorful bands in the country.
Whenever the Beneke band ap
pears at a show or dance, Glenn
Miller's trombone is on hand,
oiled and shined. The horn is
never displayed on the stand, but
is kept in perfect condition as a
tribute.

FROTEST FROM the Western
World accompanied the sentence
by the peoples' court of communist-dominated
Hungary of
life imprisonment for Joseph
Cardinal Midszenty, prince of
the Roman Catholic church. He
was charged with attempting
overthrow the government in
Hungary late last year. He also
pleaded guilty to espionage and
black marketing charges, though
many think he was forced to
plead thus. Most of the world
had litue hope of the Cardinal's
appeal to the Supreme Court of
Hungary.

were somewhat quieted Tuesday
as temperatures rose, melting

the state. Since snow that has
started to melt does not drift as
readily as "dry" snow, the im

too great.
THE LOWER house almost
overwhemingly passed President
Truman's request for the reor
ganization of the government.
This streamlining of the execu

Chalk One Up for K Klub . . .
During the past week we have praised both tho
UNESCO project and the AUF for conducting activities
which are specially beneficial in preparing students for
their role as full-fledged citizens. Today we would like
to offer commendation to another organization for eon-
ducting a worthwhile activity which will benefit the Uni
versity and students alike.
The Kosmet Klub, men's dramatic honorary, has oU
fered a gift of $1,000 to be Used in the purchase of books.
Each college has been allotted $100 dollars, and thus the
money has been apportioned equaly to the ten divisions of
the University.
Students too quick to accuse organizations of using
their funds for selfish ends should consider the Kosmet
Klub gift as an indication that students in activity groups
can realize the needs of the University and, when financially
able to do so, will help fulfill those needs.
Dear Editor,
There is a great possibility that many University students ar
unaware that a bill concerning fair employment practices is com
ing up for hearing before the Labor committee of the state legis
lature on Feb. 14. Perhaps many of us realize that racial and
religious discriminations concerning employment do exist but feel
that there is nothing we can do. This may be the opportunity we
have been waiting for.
The fair employment practices commission does not propose to
force any employee to hire any pei-sons who are unfit for a posi
tion; only that the selection or refusal not be made on the basis
of race or religion. In other states the history of F.E.P.C. has
been one of success and progress. New York, Indiana and Illinois
have reported effective and favorable results. In his Civil Rights
program, the President has encouraged every stote to adopt F.E.P.C.
The worthiness of F.E.P.C. is .undeniable. Certainly it is a
chance for democratic government to fulfill its obligations to all of
its citi7ens by alleviating a serious economic injustice. Undoubtedly,
F.E.P.C. would be a powerful weapon in discouraging overt acts of
prejudice against any members of our society.
Letters and resolutions to our representatives would indicate our
interest in and support of this bill. As individuals and as ornaniVa-
tions we have a chance to help make fair employment practices a
reality in Nebraska. joan Eokvall.

(Editorial Note)
The Fair Employment Practices commission calls for "the em
ployment of all persons in accordance with their fullest capacities,
regardless of their race, color, religion, rational origin or ancestry,
and to safeguard their right to obtain and hold employment with
out such discrimination."
F.E.P.C. comes before the Labor committee in the legislature
on Feb. 14. It has been adopted in Connecticut, Illinois, Indiana,
Massachusetts, New Jersey, Oregon, New York and Wisconsin.
President Truman in his Ciil Rights bill has asked for legis
lation of the bill in every state. Such regulations are already in
effect in all military establishments, in collective bargaining " and
