LINCOLN, Neb.,(U.R Electrical and aeronautical engineering ap parently are the favorite subjects of veterans returning to the Uni versity of Nebraska. ! Prof. J. P. Colbert, chairman of the school's consultation board, sity and of inquiries received from (for four weeks kept a record of ex-servicemen now at the univer those planning to enroll in Febru ary. ) AH forms of engineering led the poll with 41 inquiries; art and sci ence, 31; business administration, 20; law, 10, and undecided, 15. The preserence for engineering ; probably is due to three factors, ,Colbert explained. Mechanised warfare has aroused an interest in the work. Recent publicity about new technological advances ap peals to veterans. Finally, he said, the war drained off thousands of young men who would have be come industrial engineers, and the demand for such workers is tie mendous. Ranking second to engineering in inquiries and registrants is bus iness administration, with service men favoring courses in buvim?. J selling and advertising. Under the 'arts and science heading, Colbert ' said, they are interested in the three professions hardest hit by the war imedicine, dentistry and law. Present veteran enrollment at the university is led by th? col lege of business administration with 105 and engineering with 101. Other college totals are teachers, 35; dentistry, 24; gradu ate, 15; medicine,- 11, and phar macy, 6. Expert Whittler Got His Start When He Was Given a Knife ....MOBILE, Ala U.ft-i John J. Williams, 56, is more than just a handy man with a knife. He's an expert. And he should be because he's been whittling 52 years. Fifty-two years ago his mother gave him a 10-cent m knife for Christmas, and he has been 'whit tling ever since. He estimates that the present of that shiny barlow blade his mother bought at the local hardware store has caused him to whittle away 10 years of his life and carve wooden objects that have circled the gloe. He has taken simple looking pieces of white pine, mahogany, Tennessee cedar -and oak and turned them into walking canei with cigarette and match cases hidden along the sides, trick puz zles, furniture,: necklaces, 10-ard 15-foot chains, police clubs with chains and other ornaments at tached, toy ships, pistols and hing ed objects htat operate without a squeak. But, this magician of the blade just doesn't whittle away ail his time. He has been employed by the Louisville and Nashville Railroad for 28 years. He just sandwiches in his whittling between work, eat ing and sleep. One of his prize carvings was a walking cane he whittled for tne late President Franklin D. Roose velt. "I came upon a piece of piime Tennessee red cedar and the Tresi dent hail just been elected to of fice,' Williams said, "so I thougnt I would carve him a novel cane and send it to him. "I carved the handle, and as an ornament I cut panels in the sidi and then from the core of the wood cut two wooden balls and left them attached l to a chain. Then along the sides of the stick I cut two compartmentts one for his cigarettes and the other for matches; both of ;, these- hav3 a cover that will slide onen and shut but .will not leave the stick. I doubt if there is another one like it in the world," His creations are whittled frm solid wood, and the collection now includes, about 10,000 pieces. The American Bowling Congress frequently is called upon for ser vices in-other iparts of the globe, according to E. H. Baumgarten, secretary.
