Give Us A Chance. 1WI0NDAY Prof. Clark of the economics de- partment appeared before a political sci ence class in International Relations and from his rich storehouse of personal experience in Russia revealed many interesting and perti nent facts which go far to explain Russian do mestic and international policies. Professor Clark's talk, entertaining, en lightening, and educational, was enthusias tically received by the class, indicating that more discussions such as this would be highly acceptable. Happenings such as this, however, are en tirely too few in the life of university students. They have no opportunity to hear on the cam pus discussions of contemporary events and trends or of interesting things which are be ing accomplished or experimented with in the many specialized fields, unless they receive it in the classroom. The convocation and forum program on the Nebraska campus has sunk to such an abys smally low level that it is no wonder students are accused of being uninterested in cultural pursuits. Their opportunities to hear speakers of national repute are practically nil while the outstanding members of our own faculty, (and praise heaven, they do exist) seldom speak be yond the confines of their classrooms. " The death of intellectual curiosity among students today is mourned by educators of the ration, but it is not surprising here at Ne braska with as little stimulus and incentive as there is in certain cultural and educational fields, that students are wallowing in a slough .n.tk Tf onnQ ro n maintain sn flft- uj. n j a l ii j . xi. hi " - tive interest in the processes of education, the university must step beyond the bounds of its classrooms to keep that interest alive and eager. Supplementary educational "bracers," Don't Dance With Your Ideal Dancing Partner Marry Him, Arthur Murray Advises in Recent Magazine Article (Continued from Page 1.) when they are dancing says Mr. Murray. But If the girl is more in terested in toe pointing than in dancing, then she is too vain to be agreeable and should be let alone. Men who stare into space with fixed eyes and dance one beat ahead of the music are usually of aa artistic temperament. They are dancing with imaginary partners to an imaginary world, and tho they may some day produce great works of art they aren't too enjoy able to be around. Plodding danceri who set the fceel down first and then the toe are egocentric and sure of them selves. They get one idea and stick to it. Usually they are successes In the business world, insist upon Wheaties for breakfast, read the paper at six, smoke cigars only to make an impression, and retire every night at 10:45. When you ee a pigeon toed dancer, either male or female, he is almost bound to be a very charming person. People who point their toes out when they dance are usually sensual, self indulgent, and Vain. Jumpers Cheerful. XI tho you may not enjoy danc ing with a person who jumps around in front of you remember that he would make an ideal hus band or wife, or just a friend. Jumping dancers are radiant and rfui end the man who kicks bis heels in time to the music has J a delightful sense of humor. If a man holds his elbows high when he is dancing he is bound to be a leader in his little world. He'll make an excellent provider for some one who is looking lor sucn, but he'll be a mighty tough com panion. Keep away from the walking dancer who pushes his partner ahead of him. He is un doubtedly a duU person. He may even be mentally deficient. Also beware of his brother who dances with a sure solid step, uses his partner as a bumper and pushes ber thru the thick of the floor, crashing into all the other dancers and n!ver offering an ajology. He is obviously a stupid Mlow. No Elbow, No Ego. Persons Wfco dance with their elbows down have no confidence In themselves or anything they do. Those who dance with their elbows up are sure of themselves, and those who dance witii their elbows uncomfortably high are proud and vain.

And a woman who winds her arm around her partners neck is the clinging type and hard to get rid of. If you decide to spend the hour dances reading the charac ters of your best friends, remem ber that it is a dangerous pas time. A persons shows faults when he is dancing which he has under control at other times. For instance in his observation of dancers, Arthur Murray has found that most famous people are really timid and self-conscious.

It is something like this that is needed urgently here at Nebraska. Students would welcome the privilege of hearing informed persons discuss topics of general or special in terest at any time. And if, because of limited financial resources, nationally prominent men cannot be obtained for convocations, there should be nothing to bar the way to n schedule of assemblies and forums at which Nebraska faculty members speak on topics which arc definitely of student interest. Prof. Clark is undoubtedly one of the lead ing experts on Russia in this nation. In the university we have other faculty members who are no doubt ns well qualified to speak con cerning other fields. Why cannot a system be devised whereby the entire student body and not only those in certain classes, be given a nlmtK'A "to honr these nrofessors? Development of the freshman lecture course idea in the 01 Tne iresmuan lecture cwu meet m mc province of forums and assemblies would be to the campus Of course, the argument is always ad vanced that students will not attend such meet ings. We must advance the inevitable answers; H nas woriveu uu uun- cciuniuow, n nuyii.u ieatS of the Cornhusker lootDaii succeed if attempted here. The only requisite diamer. It is he who extracts dan would be that the assemblies be made inter- gerous opponent passes from the esting, and, as we have sain, semi-recreauonai in nature, and the Nebraskan feels sure that this being the case success could not but attend the experiment. At least it won't hurt to try. STUDENT PULSE Brief, concise contributions pertinent to matters of student life and the university are welcomed by this department, under the usual restrictions of sound newspaper practice, which excludes all libelous matter and personal attacks. Letters must be signed, but names will be withheld from publication If so desired. Let 'Em Gripe. TO THE EDITOR: Among the bigger sweats worked up lately is that of Student Pulse contributor "D. S." He says he's tired of hearing gripes about campus conditions and then see nothing done about it. Aren't we all? But like the overgrown boy who held the lantern while mother chopped the wood, D. S. didn't have much to work up a sweat about. Nor does anyone else who shares his belief. To gripe is human ; to do anything about it would be divine. We have no campus divinities. What if people do kick about this and that? They always have. They always will. It's j ust human nature, as instinctive as a mouse running in a hole. And most gripes are just about that important. If a Student Union building were erected, we would read a letter criticizing the architecture; if we had a co-operative bookstore, a Student Pulse let ter would question the manager's salary. Even if the model campus were a reality, the Student Pulse wolves would be still howling on the Nebraskan 's doorstep. But that's nil right. Nothing to get ex cited about, D. S. Let 'em gripe. It's good for the soul. And it gives olhers a laugh. As an example, look at the kick we cot out of vour "Gripe to End All Gripes." E. D. who has explored the north pole and the antarctic, and Gene Tun ney, boxer famous for his rapid footwork, are all self-conscious and awkward dancers. So don't judge too severely :est ye be so judged yourself. College students, notoriously hard drivers, are having a little caution instilled these days. The sensational Reader's Digest article " And Sudden Death," which deals realistically with the horror of automobile crashes, is being widely reprinted in the collegiate press.

To avoid contradlc dictlon of the latter statement he has played, at some time or other whether on the sand lot, the Lin coln high oval, or In the Memorial stadium, every post on a team. There are eleven men on a team and eleven plus eleven equals twenty-two. He started university his career as a leather carrier in Professor Bible's backfield quartet of 1933 but later, in the absence of able bench inhabitants, he was shifted from spot to spot until the Husker fans recognizing the name John Williams in plural numbers. j; , ; V. i..

He was originally intend ed to play the role of one of the extinct "watch charms" but has now proved himself one of the leads of the Cornhusker football ctVior tf rnntcr fipld: and it is alSO he who is responsible for neglected tackling tasks of the linemen. It was in the duties of a line backerup that John experienced his greatest thrill. A few years back he would have wasted little meditation on a mere touchdown, but in the Mizzou fracas when he scored from the line on an in tercepted pass his heart throb in creased its tempo. He supports a six foot frame over which is stretched 185 pounds of versatile athlete. Of his out standing features a pair of perfect ly developed legs, and a head of hair the color of a bad luck bring ing cat, are the most outstanding. Altho most coeds of this univer sity inhale and exhale with vigar as he saunters by, he insists that they can be considered only out of football season. Even then, how ever, he gives them little consider ation, for the girl who may some day have the name made famous on the Nebraska gridiron resides in Oklahoma. Dancing and moving pictures comprise the bulk of his recreation but he was recently stricken by the raging epidemic of Russian peasants.

California Greeks Are Getting Tired Of Being the Goat (By College News Service) LOS ANGELES, Nov. 12 Play ing pranks on fraternity members at the University of Southern Cali fornia is just something that holds too much temptation for Amelia Engelbrecht, according to local po lice. Miss Engelbrecht, 19, was held In jail on a charge of burglary fol lowing the theft of a prire scholar ship cup, a trophy, from the Sigma Phi Delta engineering fraternity at the university. After a complaint was filed against Miss Engelbrecht .she was arraigned before Municipal Judge Clement D. Nye. . Police said they traced the cup to Miss Englebrecht's home at 3006 South Vermont ave., after students reported the cup's disappearance, and said a woman telephoned to the fraternity saying she would re turn the cup for $10. Last spring Miss Englebrecht was sentenced to 30 days in jail for disturbing the peace after she sent divers, hearse, ambulance and fire apparatus to campus frater nity houses as a prank. One of the most intelligently edited and scholarly written pub lications in the field of youth is the "Reformatory Pillar," a three column, eight page weekly pub lished by inmates of a boys' re formatory in Minnesota. It is quiet and conservative, even the humor column is rather reserved. The movie reviews are really critical. Much space is de voted to sports, of course, but just as much to European diplomacy.

Which of these types of automo-' bile license plates do you remem ber easier "1-Man-Go" or "6-75473?" An experiment conducted by Dr. Paul P. Brainard of the Un'ver sity of Southern California in a class in applied psychology for police and peace officers in the school of government showed that a license which contained a word was recognized aobut ten times more quickly than one composed of a series of numbers. It was also demonstrated that the memory for exact letters and numbers was retained longer when a word-idea was invlved. For ex ample, 'e-Rap-In" was recognised more quickly than "5-Wux-Id." The class also was told that suf ficient word and number combi nations could be arranged to pro vide the required number of li censes in the state.
