up unsighly legs," and serve as a
means for "displaying an air of
aristocracy." Imagine! Looking
at the long dresses from an ar
tistic and aesthetic standpoint
the men thought that they were
"ok." especially when the "lower
exti-emilies are not beautiful," and
since "there Is such an abundance
of homely legs on the Nebraska
campus."
Long Hair Favored.
A decided majority of the
"brawny armed gdoup," favored
the "long done up" tresses In pre
ference to the bob, although the
latter scored two favorable votes.
Of course exceptions were made
depending upon the "girl and the
cveninp."
A large percent of the men
thought it all right if a girl
smoked, "if she enjoys it." "if she
furnishes her own cigarets," and
"if she doesn't get a light from the
butts." Two of these questioned
were indifferent, while one was de
cidely against the "feminine nico
tine habit." because "it doesn't
look well."
Women Expect Too Much.
Q u e s tioned concerning their
daily caking exclusions several of
the men admitted that they were
"victims of habit," while others
thought that "the excusions wer-

ear phone with which I could hear
a little, as I have about one-half
of one percent hearing In one

and put on the ear piece, trying to
keep students from noticing it.
"These phones have a peculiar
trick of squealing with a high
pitched noise when the amplifier

phone. That Is what I did acci

I couldn't stop the darned thing,

Socially Unactive.
Donald takes no part In the
social part of university life and
states that he would not know
what to do at a formal dance
party. -Concerning campus ac
tivities he says that he has "yet
to see a single one worth the
trouble to get into." Campus poli
tics interest him least of all.
The "social type" of girls at the
university draw his contempt.
"All they seem to care about." he
declared. "Is what fraternity a
fellow belongs to. how much
money a doting papa allows him
to throw away, and how much
of this same money they can
make him spend in an evening.
They have no respect for the serious-minded
student who Is in the
university for a purpose, and who
is trying to make something out
of himself."
Vocational Educational Aids.
All In all, however. Bavis con
cludes that being deaf has Its
compensations. "One is never
bothered," he recounted, "by
racket in the next room when try
ing to study and is never in
veigled into conversation in the
laboratory. One never has to suf
fer the humiliating experience of
being bawled out by an irate pro
fessor in front of the rest of the
class for a poor recitation. I sure
have pitied some fellows sitting
next to me when they received a
good calling down. Of course I
can't hear it, but I always have
a general idea of just how it went
by the expression on the fellow's
face."
For the past three year's
Bavis' university work has been
paid for by the state department
of vocational education. This ser
vice, he owes, he says, to Mr. J.

habilitation division.
