For This Issue
The Nebraskan announces with
pleasure the appointment of Katharine
Newbranch of Omaha as the new
editor and the selection of Gaylord
Davis of Lincoln as the new occupant
of the managing editor's chair. Miss
Newbranch, In her term of service on
the paper, has become thoroughly fa
miliar with student life and the poli
cies of the paper and students may be
assured an efficient management.
Davis has served a severe appren
ticeship at the news game, owing to
the difficulties under the military regi
me, and will be able to handle hts
new work in an especially competent
manner. In a year when most student
enterprises , are disorganized and
many have been abandoned the pub
lication board is indeed fortunate in
being able to secure students so expe
rienced in the college newspaper
gam SiS"incBe," TO cairj ua ice worK.
If the visit of "Dad" Elliot and his
three stirring addresses bring nothing
more than the pledge of the S. A. T.
C. men to "clean thought, clean speech
and clean living" he will feel that he
has been well repaid. The high stand
ard of morality found among the sol
dlers of the American troops abroad
has been one of the most potent fac
tors in rendering our armies so highly
efficient in the field and the pledge of
the Nebraska trainers is a step in the
right direction.
Too many enter the army with the
pre-concejved Idea that one must low

not emoke, they feel they must master
that fine art along with their I. D. R. ;
if they do not use profanity they are
sure they will be looked down upon
if they do not add the required pic
turesque expressions to the vocabu
lary. On the contrary the man who lives
a clean life, insuring clear thinking
and physical fitness, will find he has
the respect and admiration of those
men whose opinions really count. "At
With the coming of Dr. John Wes
ley Carter, representing the War
Camp Community service, S. A. T. C.
men are assured long-hoped for enter
tainment for their off-duty periods. Be
ginning Saturday, an elaborate pro
gram Including dances, car rides, din
ners and theatre parties la being
planned and every effort is being
made to satisfy the desires of the sol
diers for diversion.
In every camp in the United States
is found' the community service, di
rected in such a manner that every
soldier and sailor, no matter where
he may be, will find a home and en
tertalnment. In Lincoln, Dr. Carter
has accepted the generous offer of the
Elk's club rooms and will make his
headquarters in this building. Here
men in the service will nnd a hearty
welcome whenever they wish to take
advantage of the facilities for their
comfort and entertainment.
How great an enjoyment to the sol
dier is the service of the community
workers only the soldier can know.
Young boys, leaving home for perhaps
the first time to enter the service,
flock to the entertainments and there
conies a time when even the oldest
veteran longs for the comforts of a
club room. A taste of home life; the
enjoyment of a dinner or a dance
after a hard week's work will take
many pounds off the weight of the
"rookie's" pack.
Nebraska student trainers will al
ways feel grateful toward the citizens
of Lincoln who make possible the
community service. "They also
serve."
