NEBRASKA
The eternal feminine has been
the object or objector In so many
recent writings that we could
hardly overlook ourselves. Harpers
lends a lamenting: ear to the pass
ing of the chivalry behind cour
testes in Margaret Culkin Ban
nine's "They Raise Their Hats,
An unknown male exposes vast
knowledge of femmes, also Han
ers-way, in "Getting Along With
women."
o
A bit of poem on the subject
from the ages past:
"When Eve brought woe to
mankind
Old Adam called her woe-man;
But when the wooed with love so
kind
He then pronounced her woo-man
But now, with folly and with pride
Their husbands pockets trimmin',
The women are so full of whims
That men pronounce them w'im
men!"
If you can locate any of your
left - over - from-hlgh-school-com
mencement calling cards come
along on a visit of people who
probably won't be in. We might
steal quietly into University hall
and hunt up Dr. James K, Wads
worth. The head of the Romance
language department can only
gesture vaguely as to his where
abouts, so start cuss'n', you Gee
men.
Once stalked, "Waddie" will
probably get a desk near for pro'
tection and ask you straight-out
what you want. If vou make your
self clear he'll tell you to come
back in fifteen minutes, and write
out what you want. And that, rest
assured, will be that.
In the classroom he is a bloody
bloomin tyrant whose French
comments are beautiful mysteries
to all. Given a roomful of dumb
female students he is gallantly
sarcastic: with ditto men he is
merely sac"; patient.
For long we have wanted to
start a smelliest pun contest. The
offerings for today couldn't be
very awful, for only one of them
had to be explained to Diddle
Perkins. We didn't tell H-n the
other.
1. And then there was the femi
nine lingerie mogul who was
known as the queen of the undie
world.
2. The two of them were defi
nitely a bit happy. Suddenly the
lamp post against which they were
leaning toppled on top of them,
Came a thick voice from under
neath: "Posht-mashter! Posht
mashter!"
Followed the irritable query, t
little underneath-er: "Wotinell ya
want tha posht-mashter for?"
And the immediate reply:
wanna get tha posht office."
And we probably ought to add
one other from the bottom for our
old ham actor's heart. It's about
the impending, very soft but
cowardly tomato that some day
will hit our face and RUN. But
maybe it's better we spare you.
And so twunkle twunkle!

When I left Chicago to come to
Lincoln, I found the train full of
big husky football players, one
named Berwanger, bound for Ne
braska. They told me they were
having an opening scrimmage with
a western college to prepare them
ror their season. And when I ar
rived in Lincoln, most of the people
I talked with thought the same
thing.
That aroused my sporting blood,
and from then on'l was an ardent
Nebraska fan.

down. I never have been so thrilled

Univeisity students from all
over the country and even two
foreign countries added to the at

tour. Forty-four Nebraska towns,
nine states, and two foreign na

fifty cars were waiting to.take the
students on their trip. The first
stop was the Westminster church
which was called "Port Vision."

Dean R. A. Lyman revealed in an
interview to the Nebraskan Satur
day. That extra dollar each semester,
or a total of approximately $12,000
a year, will be added to the monies
at the dispensation of the student
health service and infirmary, Ly
man stated. Whatever the inten
tions of the students who origin
ally voted the extra assessment,
university authorities and particu
larly the board of regents have de
clared this sum of money shall be
used for operating and extending
the student health service.
"Before the assessment of the
swimming pool fee when the health
service received but one dollar from
each student, the bureau was able
to pay only about half of its ex
penses from this fund," Lyman
said. "Any surplus debts and ex
penses accruing from the operation
of the student health service were
discharged from the general uni
versity fund of tax money."

Twenty-four new members of
the university teaching staff were
introduced at a faculty convoca
tion Friday afternoon in the Tem
ple theater, at which Chancellor E.
A. Burnett was the principal
speaker.
A new evele in university growth
that may equal the record enroll
ment of 1929-30 was indicated oy
Dr. Burnett in his short address,
which preceded the introduction
of the teachers.
"The demand for our graduates
has improved." he declared, "and
there is the belief in the ranks of
our students that their services
will be needed upon the comple
tion of their college courses." He
encouraged faculty members to
publicize the university among Ne
braskans since the" people of the
state support the university and
other educational institutions.
Since the introduction of the
new faculty members occupied the
greater part of the forty minute
assembly, the chancellor limited
his speech to a short survey of en
rollment increase and the upward
trend employment prospects.

By Dick Kunzman.
The eye f t lie midwest, anxious' for fool ball snper-llirills,
turned expectant to Memorial stadium .Saturday afternoon, in
the hope that the Universities of Chicago and Nebraska, opi ning
their 11)33 seasons against one another, would produce some
thing in the way of a nationally prominent gridiron battle. And
"the 30,000 Cornhusker fans who
crowded into the Nebraska foot

ord for the opening game went'
away fully satisfied with the spectacle-packed
duel which ended in
a 28-7 victory for Nebraska and

ability couldn't get
him more than seven points and. a
few excellent forward passes.

Of course, comparison on the
same basis is unfair. Seward's
"Wild Horse of the Plains" ran
rings around the Maroon team be-.
cause, in addition to his own ex
press train charge, he had the sup
port of a line whose equal hasn't
been seen in Nebraska colors for a
long time. Roy Lyman's newly
renovated front fence, considered
the handicap which would keep
Nebraska out of the top place in
the Big Six despite the presence of
the giant Husker grad, held Sat
urday afternoon like Boulder Dam.
Nevertheless, Cardwell was un
questionably head and shoulders
above any player or. the field. In
the first half he carried the ball
six times. Those six plays credited
him with 135 yards and two
touchdowns, one an 85 yard run
from kickoff. ,.
Jerry Lanoue. Cardwell's half
back teammate, who was expected
to co-operate with him in subdu
ing the supposedly insubdue-able
Berwanger, fell by the wayside.
Jerry's usual twisting. turning
fury wasn't apparent throughout
the game, except for a few mo
ments in the last half, and he com
mitted a number of bad fumbles
that might have meant serious
trouble for the Huskers.
