STUDENTS . . .
Proh Say-Better To Plan Than To Cram
By CONNIE GORDON
Feature Editor
As long as there are final exams,
there will be cribbing And as
long as there is cribbing there
will be students caught in the
web of their self-made circum
stance. Cribbing; Is the student's ver
sion of Russian roulette with
one exception: in Russian rou
lette, the person has five
chances out of six of surviv
ing; in cribbing, the odds
against the student are reversed.
In other words, crime does not
pay.
Some popular cribbing methods
Include writing notes or key
words on a piece of cleansing tis
sue. Whenever a rugged question
comes along, the student has only;
to pretend as if he is going to
blow his nose. This has compli
cations for the student must look
both at the tissue and the loca
tion of the various procters.
In the days when writing
names and phrases on cords were
the fad, many young men used
to write key phrases one their
pant legs. These phrases were
usually hidden among different
names and jokes. It was merely
a matter of starring down at one's
trouser leg as if it deep thought

be inconspicuous. This cribbing method is advisable only for
students taking anatomy. (Daily Nebraskan Fhoto.)
tnrn to class, onlv to have to go
to get an answer. But fads come out again with another "violent"
and fads go and so the day of the
trouser-leg answer soon faded
away.
Some cribbing ideas hit new
highs in ingenuity. Last year, a
Miami university newspaper re
ported the case of the nose
bleed con. The student taking
an exam would fake a nosebleed
and he temporarily excused
class. A friend would be want
ing outside at an appointed
place with a text book and per
uana a few helpful notes,
nosebleed. Needless ot say, he
would come back with the an
swers. The method must not have
proved too successful, however,
or the Miami newspaper would
probably not have gotten wind of
it.
Crime can be grime if the
method of writing notes on the
various parts of one's anatomy
isused. Many coeds have found
that writing the crib notes on
their legs proves fairly success
ful. Either that, or they believe
The test taker would tell the in the old saying "scholars are

Christianity Rating:
YM-YW Meet Topic
Rating of the University cam
pus in respect to Christianity will
De ine topic lor discussion at a
joint meeting of Ag YMCA and
Ag YWCA Tuesday evening. The
groups will meet in the Home
Ec parlors at 7:30 p.m.
According to Steve Eberhart,
president of Ag YMCA, election
of officers for the men's group
will be held after the joint meet
ing. Offices to be filled are presi
dent, first vice president, second
vice president, secretary, treas
urer and district representative.
The Ag YM nominations com

nations will be accepted from the
floor.
gentlemen." However, there are
exceptions to every rue . . and old
saying.
Carelessly dropping one's test
paper on the floor and looking
at crib notes while in the pro
cess of picking it up is a not
too original.
There is one thing many stu
dents forget when they crib in
quizzes and finals. It is: profs
went to University at one time
too. And unless they have very
sohrt memories, they probably re
member some of the common crib
bing practices of their day.
To form a subtle analogy:
you don't have to play football
to know the game. And to form
an even less subtler analogy:
it's better to be on the side lines
and play it safe.
As a final word to the wise
from University professor, "It's
better to plan than to cram."
Deck Of Cards May Replace
Calendar As New Time Piece
"Say, have you got a calendar only hope that you get a deck of
on vs?"
"No, but I have a deck of cards."
At first glance, you may think
that the relationship between
cards and calendars is non-ex-istant
(with the exception of
those who take forever and a
day to play a hand of bridge).
But there is a definite correla
tion that most card players
don't know exist.
For instance, the total of the
face value in each complete deck
of cards, including the joker,
equals 365. In other wr 's, the
ace equals one, the jack equals 11
and son. In leap years, you can
cards with two jokers.
The 52 cards in the deck of.
cards equal the number of
weeks in a year. .If you don't
want to count the weeks, but
rather the months, then you can
use the four suits in the deck
to denote either four weeks in
a month or four seasons in a
year.
The 13 cards in each suit also
serve a purpose. They can help
you figure out the weeks in each
season of the year.
So you see, as long as you have
a deck of cards, you'll never need
a calendar.

Prize Winning
French Movie
Coming To NU
University YMCA, to continue
its series of foreign films, will
present a French reel, "Carnival
in Flanders," Friday and Satur
day at 8 p.m. in Love Library
auditorium.
The show has won many prizes
in Europe and is highly rated in
American reviews.
Time said. "It is as sly a farce
as any kind that has ever led a
U. S. censor board to mistake good
manners for innocent intentions."
From the Commonweal: "It is a
capably wrought, skillfully played,
well directed, handsomely
mounted, notably photographed,
and hilariously studded farce. Fre
quently the pictorial displays re
mind one of paintings, embracing
with deft tonings the expansive
fields and picturesque quaintness
of the seventeenth century settings
that are reproduced most ac
curately." Tickets are 65 cents and avail
able at the door or at the Univer
sity YMCA.

Wintertime sporttime. The
terms are almost synonimous.
Students are finding that even
thoush the snow and ice may
cause unnecessary sliding and
falls, the conditions are excellent
for the many popular winter
sports.
Skating is a popular pasttime
that gains new enthusiasts each
year. This year, no exception,
was ushi-red in with a bountiful
supply of ice and low tempera
tures. All of these conditions
provide the perfect setting for
ideal skating.

this winter. But from all indica
tions, if the weather stays cold
enough, and the snow stays high
enough, sleigh rides will prob
ably be on the weekend agenda
of many Joe Colleges and Betty
Coeds.
Even though Nebraska is not
particularly good skiing country,
many students got a chance to
do some skiing during their va
cations ... in other states. A
few of the students brought
back remembrances of their va
cation ski sprees in the way of
broken bones and various
sprains and strains.
Probably the most unpopular
form of winter sport has been
snow shovelling. Since most stu
dents realize that snow takes
some time to melt . . . especially
in freezing temperatures, they
also realize that they must take
shovel in hand and go to work.
Even though science has proved
that snow is nine-tenths water,
it is difficult to prove this fact
to many students especially after
a morning of back-breaking shov
elling. In the same category with
snow shovelling is the unofficial

fierhts usually begin with one
well-aimed snow ball and con
tinue until every contestant is
thoroughly covered with snow.
Only then is a truce called.
If there is any snow left after
these fights, building snowmen or

ambitious students. Recalling the
days of their early youth, many
of the students find that snow
building is still an enjoyable past-
