Means Writes Parting Note
Intramural Managers
and Students:
When you receive this, you will perhaps already be aware of
my departure from the University May 16. While I am entering a
new field of activity, I wanted you fellows to know how deeply I
appreciate your helpful cooperation in building a great program of
physical education and intramural sports at Nebraska to the end
that all men on the campus could enjoy real sport and competition.
May I wish all of you great pleasure in future competition and
many Jack Best Championships for all. It has been a thrill to enjoy
your fun. Don't let anything interfere with the continuation of the
program you so richly deserve here at your University. I have spent
many years fighting for this kind of democratic program and will
miss every one of you in months ahead.
Best wishes,
Louis E. Means.

Baseball Story
Scheduled Over
KFOR Tonight
Tonight at 9:30 over Station
KFOR, the radio section of the
speech department will present
Vernon Dclton's "Three Strikes,
You're Out" over Authors of the
Ages.
This tale deals with a comedy
of conflicting problems. " Picture
an energetic young piano-tuner
whose main love is baseball and
whose mam hobby is playing good
baseball. Then picture a lovely
young lady who meets and loves
a piano-tuner but who definitely
is n interested in sports of any
kin.
That is problem enough, but
when Cupid shoots his potent ar
row right through a piano-tuner's
heart well! what would youdo
if you loved a beautiful girl but
couldn't marry her unless you
have to give up your greatest
pleasure?
To find out how one man
found a happy solution to his
! problem, you won't want to miss
I "Three Strikes, You're Out" over
! Authors of the Ages at 9:30 p.m.
over station KFOR tonight.
"You down there!" shouted
father from the head of the stairs.
"It's two-thirty! Do you think
you can stay all nisht?"
"Er, thank you," said the lover.
"But I'll have to phone home
first."

In anybody's book, on of them
it Paul W. Trousdalo. Said TIME'
ittuo of December i, 1946:
With a banker's natural curiosity,
old A. P. Giannini wanted to meet the
32-ycar-old builder who had already
borrowed $30 million from his Bank
of America, and was now asking for
$50 million more. So he made a special
trip to Los Angeles, dropped in on
Paul W. Trousdale, looked at his past
projects and future plans. Banker
Giannini's curiosity was apparently
satisfied, for last week Trousdale an
nounced that he was getting his $50
million loan.
Past Projects. The record which im
pressed Banker Giannini: during the
war the Paul W. Trousdale Construc
tion Co. had built 3,0:5 small houses,
including seven big housing projects.
Now it was hard at work on j.coo
houses for veterans and was turning
them out at the rate of ten a day.

A. P. took a look.
Paul Trousdale got into the Los
Angeles building business by way of
the University of Southern California
and the ad department of Beech-Nut.
After a year as an adman, Trousdale
took a $i25-a-month timekeeper's job
with a local contractor, quit to form
his own company with a $10,000 bank
loan to finance it.
On each project, he and his stock
holders put up the money to cover the
cost of real estate, got Bank of Amer
ica loans to cover all construction
costs, had little trouble getting mate
rials by his cash-on-the-linc policy.
Like most builders he formed a new
corporation for each project, dissolved
it w hen the project was finished. Thus
his fat profits were taxable at only
as capital gains, gave him plenty
of capital to expand. In all, he invested
some $900,000 in his wartime projects,
made another $900,000.
Future Plans. Well heeled at war's
end. he decided the time had come to
plunge. For this he picked one of the
best pieces of undeveloped land in
Southern California, a 65-acre tract
at Baldwin Hills, a short run from
downtown Los Angeles.
Now, with the Bank of America
loan. Trousdale plans to build 8 000
rental units on 450 acres of it, along
with a i6-acrc super-shopping center.
Eventually he hopes to build a hun
dred 13-story apartment houses on the
rest of the land.
