HUGE 5 CENTS.
Henceforth, a portion of each
day's aroundlng and abouting
will be excellent. It it to be
handled by the erttwhlle pater
families favorite operative,
Helll and should smack and
twang as such things will.
In those column writing days of
yore, it was oft our wont to snug
gle at length upon the well round
ed literary bosom of Alexander
Woolcott. From thence, we would
occasionally toss to the world such
of his town-cried nothings as were
not too pearl-like for collegiate
eyes virginlbus puerisque The
snuggling continued when the toss
ing ceased, and in the interim we
have gurgled extensively thru
Woolcott Header eyes at Anthony
Hope's "Dolly Dialogues."
We first met Mr. Hope under
protest thru the ever quipping
Virginia Faulkner. Those "ink
stained romances," Tho Prisoner of
Zenda and Rupert of Hentzen were
tho curient movie marvels my,
my, boy, how old you are, grand
maw! and La Faulkner had gath
ered pictures of noteworthles of
Kurltanlc into her vast collection
of photos of film favorites. Each
photograph told a story and
proved exciting antidotes to rainy
afternoons. But the looking there
on soon became a bribe for un
willing fencing lessons and lost
face.
The less lustrous Dolly Dia
logues, masterpieces of highly so
cial badinage, are indeed gemfull.
We will confine ourselves to flash
ing only:
"Mr. Gay once said to me that
man was essentially imperfect un
til he was married."
"It is true," I agreed, "and wo
man until she is dead."
We descend from the literati
to these snow swept reaches to
chronicle this: "It is told to us
that not a long time ago John
Jarmin and Jane Temple were
riding along, and Johny sug
gested a game 'of poker. Jane
said, "O. K., but let's stop by
my house so I can get an extra
jacket." AND HE STOPPED!
Love among the "personals"
(Saturday Review of Literature):
"13 there a man not forlorn, nor
bent upon folly nor so torn, Who
might wish to amuse a gal By
writing like a real pal? Box 56-B."
"Is there a Maiden, patrician,
pianistic, petite, pulchritudinous,
non-Bacchanistic, Who'd accom
pany a tenor, with artistic zeal,
in serious study, tribute Epicur-
eal? Orpheus."
Local wise boys are making
book on the John P. O'Connor
Father Coughlin brawl, which
has lost considerable attraction
by O'Connor retraction of his
promise to kick the cleric up
and down Pennsylvania Ave.
The odds on O'Connor, who is
said to have had amateur ring
experience as a middleweight,
tumbled fast when word came
that Kid McCoy, now 60 years
old and working in a Detroit
factory as Norman Selby, had
offered to wear the Coughlin
colors ir any possible O'Connor
scrap. McCoy, light heavy
weight chap of de woild at one
time, lost less than a half a
dozen out of more than 200
fights during his career.
From Woolcott to the Albert
Payson Terhune motif is but a few
flips of the carriage return for us
as we recall an article on dogs by
an Austrian psychologist. The
good doctor reviewed the various
superstitutions about dogs, and
seriously explained that the fact
that dog has been such a close
companion to man for centuries
accounts for the brute's being sen
sitive to omens beyond the ken of
his master. We go forth to inter
pret the vagaries of an affection
ate chow that welcomes visitors as
they round a distant corner.

who remembers C. C. "Cold Cash"

Having been sweetly impor
tuned to include in his hodge
podge a plug for the Penny Car

for the carnival, we add out of
fairness to her lists as the big
attraction of the afternoon the
awarding of a C. C. C. cup (Coed

SEATON EXPECTS
BOOK STORE OPEN
ABOUT MARCH 1 5
Arranging of New Quarters,
Construction of Shelves
To Start Soon.
The university's second hand
book store will be opened to stu
dents about the fifteenth of Marcn,
according to Operating Superin
tendent L. F. Seaton, who is in
charge of setting up the student
council project recently approved
by the board of regents.
Delay in opening tho book store
has been caused by the inability
of the library commission to move
into new headquarters in the
state capltol building, he stated.
The store is to be located in the
room in Social Science now oc
cupied by the commission.
It is expected that the commis
sion will be able to move by
March 1, when work will be
started on constructing of shelves
and rea-;anging the room.
Tho book store will purchase
second hand texts from students
and resell them at a slight in
crease in price, Mr. Seaton ex
plained. The only books to be pur
chased are those which will be
used in classes during the semes
ter following. Fifty percent of the
original cost is to be paid for
books and they are to be sold for
a 25 percent increase.
The operating superintendent
stated instructors are now send
ing in lists of texts to be used
next fall so that the stoie can be
opened immediately following the
rearranging of the new headquar
ters. Supporters of the store have
asked that students keep their old
books and sell them when the
store is opened.

unchanged by university infirmary
officials late Thursday afternoon.
Horney is suffering from a severe
cold complicated by heart and
kidney ailments.
The Intramural manager nan

feared that his case might develop
into pneumonia. His condition is
not spi-ioua. but extremely painful.

Women's Board Scraps Old
Point System; New. Rulings
Become Effective Monday
Activity Loaders Appraise
New Plan; Sec Retter
Work, Coordination.
New life for women's activi
ties, now unbalanced and over
burdening for workers in sev
eral departments, is foreseen
by lenders of coed organizations
who are responsible for the enact
ment of the revised point system.
"Mortar Board strongly favors
the new point system limiting the
number of activities carried by one
individual, and feels that the re
sult will be a better quality of
work," declared Alaire Barkes,
president of the senior women's
honorary. "Tho inter-organization
committee, sponsored by Mortar
Board, and composed of presidents
and leaders of all campus organ
izations, has also expressed its
support of the move, and hopes
thru cooperation of all women's
groups, the revision can be made
to function properly and smooth
ly," continued Miss Barkes.
Believing firmly that the new
system is the only way out for the
majority of activity women who
have been called upon to carry
more than their share of responsi
bility, Mary Edith Hendricks,
president of A. W. S., feels that
"The new rating will not only pro
mote efficiency, but improve the
scholastic standing of university
women as a whole."
Barbara DePutron, chairman of
the committee on revision, realizes
the difficulty which will be in
volved in the change of activity
curriculums, and is firm in the be
lief that "Each individual within
the organization must co-operate
whole hcartedly if the new system
is to be successful."
"W. A. A. will do all it can to
comply with the new ruling," com
mented Elizabeth Bushee, presi
dent of the Women's Atheltic as
sociation. "Personally, I feel this
change will mean a great deal to
all university women, as it will
give many more girls a chance to
participate in activities," she con
cluded. STUDENTS INVITED TO
ITY NIGHT
Recreational Evening for
All Aim of Affair
March 18.
Plans for a recreational evening
for the men and women of the
campus, to be held Wednesday,
March 18, were discussed at the
W. A. A. council meeting Thurs
day night. Members of the council
voted in favor of providing such
an evening of entertainment for
the students.
Other plans completed at the
council meeting included the de
cision to provide ping pong and
shuffle board equipment for girls
who wish to take part in some
light spoil during the noon hour.
The equipment will be available
the first week of March, and if
enough girls make use of it the
plan will continue thruout the
school year.
Program Arranged.
Accepting the sport board's
recommendations for the rest of
the intramural season, the spring
sports program was definitely
mapped out for the rouncil by
Elizabeth Bushee, president. Bas
ketball and ping pong tourneys
will start immediately, she said,
with archery and swimming to be
gin April 15. Baseball and deck
tennis will take up the month of
May, and the tennis and golf clubs
will meet with the first favorable
weather.
Effecting an amendment to the
constitution, the council voted to
include the presidents of the dif
ferent sports clubs in the official
sports board, and to give them
equal vote with the other sports
board .nembers. Previously t h e j
sports board has been composer!

GREEKS 'CUT OWN THROATS'
WITH 'HELL W EEK' ACTIVITIES
"The fraternities are cutting
their own throats." So stated E.
F. Schramm, Interfraternity coun
cil advisor, following disclosure
by the Daily Nebraskan that cer
tain fraternities intend to carry
on "hell week" activities against
the council's wishes.
"They don't seem to realize that
every foolish act they perform is
publicized over the entire state by
the newspapers. The legislature
at a recent session came very close
to abolishing fraternities at Ne
braska. They would welcome an
excuse to try it again, and the
fraternities are giving them this
chance by continuing "hell week"
practices.
"Any disturbance on the campus
or elsewhere caused by the fra
ternities due to 'hell week' activi
ties will come under the jurisdic
tion of the Interfraternity council.
There is a fine of 525 and in ex
treme cases social privileges may
be suspended for a semester or
two."

according to Miss Hendricks.
Senior women are exempt from
the entire new system of rulings.
