'Unique

' A tradition which has already contributed much
toward establishing a fine and friendly spirit on the
Nebraska campus, and which will probably account
;for many an instance of group congeniality on the
campus in the future is the Mortar Board party, a
!turn-about affair scheduled for Friday evening in
;the coliseum. The usual situation is reversed, since
the young ladies on the campus escort their boy
Ifriends to the event and feed them (if the fellow is
Uucky).
This dance will be the fourth annual Mortar
'.Board party, the traditional event being inaugurated
In February, 1932, Leap Year.
It is always good for a group to break away,
in decent fashion, from the rigid trend and rule of
things for a short time. In such a way life is made
more liveable, and the imagination is brushed up a
."bit. Those attending the Mortar Board party Fri
day evening will witness and experience results of
imaginative enterprise in the form of cream puff,
parrot, and other sorts of corsages, and gold-digging
xn the part of the fellows. "
Tonight a large portion of the student body is
going on a commendable spree. For the fellows, at
least, the turn of affairs will mean some real relaxa

Comment
Huey Takes
' It Back
', "Kingfish" Long of Louisiana,
like all good politicians, recognizes
the value of quick retreat when
'the enemy's forces become too
menacing.
In a 900 word telegram to the
Big Ten Editorial association a
few days ago, the senator declared
he had "never censored or under,
taken to censor anything published
at Louisiana State university."
The cause for this lengthy denial
"was the action of the Big Ten col
lege editors id condemning public
ly his "unwarranted censorship of
the undergraduate newspaper"
the Reveille.
But apparently the students of
L. S. U. are not satisfied to let the
matter of censorship rest with
Huey's protestation of innocence.
Five more journalism students
were given their walking papers
.from the university because they
were suspected of not being en
tirely in accord with the adminis
tration's stand on a "controlled"
publication.
And even these expulsions were
not enough to scare impetuous col
legians who last Saturday signi
fied their disapproval of the
. S. U. president's actions by
hanging him in effigy. They ob
jected to the president's statement
that he would "do nothing to of
4?end Senator Long" and that he
would first rather fire the news-

Huey will perhaps think twice
1efore blundering again into any
thing as touchy as freedom of the

tactics. California Daily Bruin.

unless the historical sequences of
cause and effect are known. Near
ly all of the present problems are
but results of tendencies which
have had a long history.
Prof. Emory S. Bogardus of the
University of Southern California
has stated that "social thought, the
center of all sound thinking, ha3
been ignored; consequently the
world beneath its load of social ills
has slipped backward nearly as
often as it has advanced. Despite
man's well nigh complete conquest
of nature, he is finding it difficult
to reap the benefits of progress.
Apparently his victories are being
nullified by a Frankenstein like
reversal simply because such a
mass of the population, supremely
Intelligent on terminological and
scientific problems, remains in
abysmal ignorance of such basic
problems that almost three hun
dred thousand individuals are in
state hospitals for the mentally
disordered and are being cared for
at a cost of 138,071,165. This figure
closely approximates the enroll
ment in colleges and universities
of the United States, which num
ber does not include the incalculable
number not in such institutions.
How many of the populace realize
the dangers confronting modern
civilization in the form of interna
tional jealousness, tension of a sit
uation which is likely to toss us
into such a maelstrom as that
from which we are now emerging
one which cost $180,000,000,000
for munitions and machines of
war, property loss on land $29,060,
000,000, losses to shipping $6,800.
000,000, production losses thru di
verted and noneconomic production
$45,000,000,000, a sum total of
$337,000,000,000. With these and
countless other social difficulties
blocking the road of humantistic
progress, what is the value of such
scientific success, which lengthen
man's life span if his existence be
comes more discouraging and un
bearable? Junior Collegian.

passed from view he heard the ex
plosion, which, according to the in
tricate computations of Prof. Col
lins would mean that during this
time the meteor travelled about
thirty-eight miles. In other words,
the meteor was traveling at noth
ing short of 12 miles per second.
The second person interviewed
was the station agent at Alvo. Ac
cording to information obtained
from these two sources, Prof. Col
lins stated, that the meteor fell
within a ten mile radius of Julian,
Nebraska.
Its light was so bright, accord
ing to these two sources of infor
mation, that it out-shone all art!
ficial lights, was "as light as day,"
and illuminated the surrounding
territory to such an extent that
reading a newspaper at that time,
without the aid of artificial lignt
ing, would have been a compara
tively simple matter had one, of
course, had a newspaper. The
statements as to the size of the
object vary from the proverbial
grain of sand to the size of a house
and on up to an estimate which
reckoned it at a half-mile across,
The color of the meteor has been
described as white, blue, and
brown. Prof. Collins stated that,
according to one source of infor
mation, it exploded in the air, and
according to another source, it did
not explode until it hit the ground.
Scientists state that probably
20,000,000 of these meteors fall all
over the world each day such
meteors varying in size from those
which are so small that 10,000 of
them could be held in one hand, to
those such as one discovered in
Greenland, now lodged in the New
York museum, which weighs in the
neighborhood of thirty-six tons.
More explicit information, ac
cording to Prof. Collins will un
doubtedly be obtained In the near
future, but as yet, with the meager
data now available, it is safe to
hazard only guesses as to where,
when, how, and what it was that

One of the necessary groups
who will take an active part in the
success of "Yellow Jack" is the
quartet of young men who will
sing old songs between acts and
scenes. They are known about Lin

singing before the Masons and

sing regularly at the St. Paul's
church. Lately they have been do

and "There's a Hot Time in the
Old Town Toulght," which they
will sing three or four times thru-
out the play. These chaps attend
the university, and will more than
add to the interest of this out

university flayers.

Eva Le Gallienne, whose appear
ance may or may not have been
appreciated here in Lincoln last
year, recently closed both her en
gagements of "L'Aiglon," the
Clemence Dane production, and
'Hedda Gabler," and has begun
work on her repertoire in New
York. Of her recent performances
in "Hedda Gabler" John Mason
Brown of the New York Post
wrote, "Miss Le Gallienne speaks
well, but regardess of the skill
with which she utters this speech
or that, she leaves her "Hedda"
uninterpreted. She played with in
tensity but the character she acts
is not Ibsen's, but Miss Le Gal
lienne's, in fact the very same
short haired Miss Le Gallienne who
will soon again be seen in a revival
of "L'Aiglon." Miss Ethel Barry-
more, who appeared in the same
cast with Miss Le Gallienne, has
withdrawn from the cast, to star
in a play in her own right, which
will open shortly. The third Le
Gallienne production which will
open soon is G. Martinez Sierra's
uraaie song."
Among the current moving pic
tures which are attracting large
houses, is the screen version of
Charles Dickens' "Great Expecta
tions." This vehicle is particularly
interesting because It brings three
of the stage's brightest stars to
the screen in an initial debut.
Henry Hull, who for years starred
in the stage version of "Tobacco
Road;" Florence Reed especially
remembered for her performances
of "Shanghai Gesture" and Jane
Wyatt of "Lost Horiions" fame,
are the three. It would pay to see
these unusual artists in this first
screening of the famous novel.
