terday,
These committees will meet
during the week and present
their reports at the Conven
tion meeting next Sunday aft
ernoon. In other Convention busi
ness, Bill Coufal moved that
a permanent parliamentarian
be chosen for the Convention.
The motion passed and
George Vrba was elected to
the position.
"Great!" is the reaction
of the Kosmet Klub Fall Re
view director, Mrs. William
E. Hall, to this year's skit
productions.
Mrs. Hall, who is directing
the show for her first time,
said she is enjoying t he work
tremendously. She said the
acts are quite varied, and
promise to make a great
show.
Mad Mad Mania will be
presented Saturday night at
8 p.m. in Pershing Auditorium.
The four skits selected by
Kosmet Klub are "How to
Succeed In College Without
Really Trying," Kappa Sig
ma; "From Pasture to Pil
lar," Delta Upsilon; "And
Now A Word," Theta Xi; and
"Custer's Last Stand," Beta
Theta Pi.
Bob Rose, Kappa Sigma
skitmaster said "How To Sue
ceed In College Without Real
ly Trying" tells of the plight
of the three Fink brothers
who come to college, but are
completely in the dark. The
brothers remember a book,
(same name as title) and by
following the rules laid down
in it, become successful in
their college careers.
"From Pasture to Pillar"
is a tribute to the sorority
girl who makes good, accord
ing to Joe Smith, Delta Upsi
lon skitmaster. The story is
told of Rita Snellers who
comes to college and pledges
Mu Mu Mu. Rita proves to be
successful in activites, schol
arship, q u e e n-titles, and
catching her man. Smith
said "Someday Rita may even
be a dean."
The impact of the television
commercial is pointed out in
the Theta Xi skit. "And Now
A Word," according to Lynn
Corcoran, skitmaster. He said
that more and more today
television is making an im
pact on the nation.
More important, Corcoran
said, is the impact of com
mercials. A television show
of the future will be depicted
in the skit, according to Cor
coran. "I think the skit gives
us a very good visualization
of television today," he said.
"Custer's Last Stand," ac
cording to Beta Theta Pi
skitmaster Gary Martin, is
the true behind-the-s c e n e s
story of Custer's Last Stand.
The real battle of the prices
between Custer and Chief
Sitting Bull is depicted in the
skit, according to Martin. He
said "The mad mad mania
of our world was evident even
in the times of Custer."
Four travelling acts will be
presented in the show. They
will be presented by The
Four Eps II: The Cellar
Dwellers; Mike Barton, of
Pni Kappa Psi; and the Rho
Men, of Alpha Gamma Rho.
Tickets for the production
may be purchased from any
Kosmet Klub worker for
$1.50, and at the box office
at Pershing for $1.75.

bus?
(3) Do you feel this bus
would serve you better if it
were to make a stop between
campuses? If yes, where?
The answers from the ques
tionnaire will then be used by
the committee and the Uni
versity administration in an
effort to improve the bus
service.
Poppert reminded students

He said that this regulation
is enforced 24 hours a day,
and that tickets are given w
violators.
He also warns students that

In the evening, they may not
park on the red lines or along
the curb. They must park In

Co-Op Living Units Offer Advantages
By WALLIS LUNDEEN
Junior Staff Writer
House spirit with personal
freedom, economy, and oppor
tunities to participate in cam
pus events attract men to a
coooperative type of living at
the University.
Four cooperative living
units for men are established
at the University Brown Pal
ace, Cornhusker Co-op, Pio
neer House and Ag Men's.
Mike Fischer, vice-president
of Cornhusker Co-op explain
ed that "the idea behind a
co-op is to live economically
at the University, still get in
on social activities, and have
a special group of friends."
The men in the houses do
most of the work except cook
ing. "We feel like a unit work
ing for a common goal," Dan
Schuck, house manager of
Brown Palace said.
Members of all co-ops par
ticipate in Intramurals, and
most are encouraged to par
ticipate in college events and
activities.
However, Fischer said "We
aren't made to do anything.
We try not to make it a con
forming group, but you can't
help from it if you want to,
and it isn't necessarily bad."
. "We encourage members to
attend speeches and events at
the University, and to be in
clubs in which they have a
special interest, such as
French Club if they are tak
ing French. Many of our
members are in engineering
and belong to engineering
fraternities," Fischer contin
ued.
Fischer said the main ad-said "We are represented
vantage to cooperative living! right now as much as our
is that !t costs less money for
room and board.
He added that the co-op
does not supply as much soc
ial life, but the members are
free to choose their own
friends.
"Co-ops as a unit are not
a large unit. We don't have
the push, and we feel many
people on campus don't know
what we re doing, Mscher
said, referring to the subject
of communications with the
campus.
Most co-ops feel they are
represented on campus at

Members of the Calorime

the fields of thermochemis

concerned primarily with ex

systems in which energy

McNeff attributes this to
