LINCOLN, NEBRASKA, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1936.
PRICE 5 CENTS.
We have found another reader
that is, somebody who confesses
to dallying among our garbled
nothings. This one Is John Bent
ley, conductor of an "I May Be
Wrong" effort appearing daily in
the Lincoln Journal. He confesses
his indulgence in a little arounding
and abouting by telling us,
through his column, that we mis
spelled Alexander Woollcott's last
name. He suggests that wc shall
be forced by that venerable racon
teur to go sans any place to snug
gle if we persist in such error.
We presume that some underling
in the department is responsible
for the omission of one of the l's.
We have spoken to the underling,
and slapped said tyro soundly on
both wrists several times.
In passing may we suggest
that Mr. Bentley take in hand
his column of last week the
one in which he pointed out our
error and compare his spelling
of "permitted" with Noah Web
ster's. It's just a suggestion, sir,
but we seem to remember that
Webster uses two t's in it.
Overheard as Ethel Barrymore
Colt, direct from Aberdeen, S. D.,
played "Accent On Youth" for the
local yokelry: (two Women's club
president types) "And you wore
white gloves to this!"
And here's your poetry for to
day, Junior:
Life is Love, the poets tell us
In the little books they sell us;
But pray, ma'am, what's of Life
the use,
If Life be Love? For Love's the
Deuce!
Ever since we wandered into the
Drug one Saturday morning in the
cold gray dawn when the potato
chips were being delivered, we
have been in search of "the lone
liest thing." We have considered
the Sosh clock during vacation,
the Cornhusker after a ball. Home
coming decorations in a rain
storm, the stadium post-Pitt, Tem
ple dressing rooms after a week's
run, the Awgwan office under the
new deal, any sorority house on
any week end. Or there are faded
corsages, cigarette stubs after the
bull session, a stack of player
piano rolls after the foot power
has headed home, blown out can
dles on a birthday cake, coffee
dregs in tete-a-tete cups, rumpled
hair after goodnights.
t
But these things are not real
ly lonely; loneliness vanishes in
proportion to the happiness that
once was. And so we say the
most forlorn of all things un
lovely, unwanted, unclaimed,
without even a past Is a cold
piece of toast.
And now your Dolly Dialogue
for today. Bertram:
"You oughtn't to yield to temp
tation." "Well, somebody must, or the
thing becomes absurd."
Of all the things without which
we would be infinitely happier in j
these days of travail and ffreat '
care, radio's ubiauitnua Man rn
the Street leads the parade by a ! is scheduled to speak on the sub
good blucK and a half. This gent j jeet of "The College Girl Her
meats into the outstretched ears
of loutish passersby some question
like "Why is a duck?" or "Do you
like spinach, and what do you
think of Popeye?" or "Is your
mother -in-law mean to you?"
The other day we heard one
of these fungi on the great tree
of our wonderful American civ
ilization asking "What do you
think is the best way for a girl
to bring herself to some man's
attention?" At least, it was
something like that. The hay
barber who had been able to
jostle- himself closer to the mi
crophone than the other hav
barbers, giggled, probably blush
ed, and blurted, "Food." The
Man. not daunted, rejoined.
"Well, what would you do if

which a college girl must meet to

a sketch of the manner in which
the average college girl may use
her time to the best advantage, at
the same time giving a short dis- J

Frances Scudder, chairman of the
vesper staff commented. "Since
every girl should be interested in
the subject of how to use one's
time to the best advantage, as
well as to properly choose one's
career, it would be of consider
able value to hear Miss Perkins
speak as a competent authority on
this subject."

Law College Trials Strictly
Founded on Fact This Season
Mock Suits Barred From
School Activities This
Year.
The Daily Nebraskan is safe
from law college practices. Fear
that a mock libel suit would be
brought against the student pub
lication was dispelled yesterday
afternoon when Prof. L. D. Coff
man, of the law college, disclosed
the information that all trials this
year will be strictly fact and no
fancy.
Concern was felt last year when
mock libel charges were brought
against the Daily Nebraskan, but
the defendants suffered only the
payment of one cent damages
apiece. This was later suspended.
Great commotion was caused at

to Bill Marsh, chairman of the
committee in charge.
Principal speakers will be Col.
R. G. Douglas, upholding the af

Rev. Arthur L. Weatherly, of the
All-Souls church. Lincoln, who will
argue against militarism and pre
paredness. Irving Hill will open the discus

the purpose of university forums,
introduced by Bill Marsh, who will
preside. Following the two twelve
minute talks by the main speak
ers, the floor will be open to stu
dents, who will be allowed not only
to voice their own opinions, but
ask questions of the speakers.
"Since nvlitarism has always
been a topic of heated discussions
on this campus, we feel sure the
talks will be welcomed with con
siderable enthusiasm," stated
Marsh. "We are asking the co
operation of every interested stu

All Girls Invited to Learn of
Favorite Hobbies at
Meetings.
Y. W. C. A. interest groups em
bodying many of the favorite hob
bies of university women, sued as
books and poetry, knitting, and
even running around the town, will
nod their first meetings in Ellen
Smith hall this week. The groups
are open to all girls whether they
are raembers of the Y: W, or not.
and anyone wishing to participate
in the activities of one of the
groups is asked to attend the first
meeting at the scheduled time this
week.
The knitting group, under the
direction of Louise Magee, will
meet at 2 o'clock Friday afternoon.
Instruction in knitting, as w-ell as
practice, will be a feature of the
group. Margaret Hendricks, head
ing the group on the reinterpreta
tion of religion, will hold the first
meeting at 4 o'clock Tuesday.
A group on the subject "Know
Lincoln" will be directed by Jane
Holland every Friday at 3 o'clock.
Members of this group will be
given a chance to visit places of
interest in the city, as well a to
learn interesting facts about the
town. The books and poetry group,
led by Regina Hunkins, will meet
Tuesday at 11 o'clock.
the Pharmacy college, reporters
from the evening papers, and po
lice and cruiser cars from all over
the city.
Hoax Discovered.
After the hoax was dtYverert
the reporters went back to their
offices, the doctor had to content
himself with reviving the woman
law student who bad fainted dead
away with the first shot and the
perturbed police were sent a box
of cigars and the apologies of the
college.
But those days are gone. Tne
prosecuting attorney will have to
do without the bloody corpse, the
fingerprinted gun, and the "wom
an in the case." The defense can
no longer point to the fact that
the defendant is a father of twelve
and the sole support of his family.
All cases for this semesters trials
will be taken from the hook, part-
ly to avoid complicated situations
with lecal authorities, and partly1
because they can't think of any-!
thing new.

their next production, to open
Monday evening. March 2, antici

look forward to something entire
ly new and different from the
usual Temple presentations." Miss
H. Alice Howell, head of the dra
matic department, stated.

as a stage artist have well been
proven beyond the slightest doubt,
will assume the leading male role
in the approaching production, as
he takes the part of Alan Squier.
Hunter, who at present is business
manager of the University Play
ers, 'has starred as Marc Antony
in "Julius Caesar," as the deep
villain in "The Dark Tower," and
as the chief male in "Her Mas
ter's Voice" in previous years but
has been seen much too little thus
far this season.
Others among the leading males
include: Lee Young, who will be
remembered for his work in the
"Road to Rome"; J. R. Lillard,
previously seen as "Porgy": Rich
ard Rider, whose brilliant work
already this season has attracted
a large following; Alan Gatewood,
a relatively new find who prom
ises to be one of the brighter spots

Required Examinations
Include Psychological
Test This Year.
to
Regents of the university have
provided 250 scholarships tor
freshmen entering the university
in the fall of 193G. Scholarships
will be available for all colleges.
These are to be awarded on the
basis of examinations in five aca
demic subjects, English, Mathe
matics. Foreign Languages, Nat
ural Sciences and Social Sciences,
the combination depending on the
college the student expects to
enter and on the student's rating
in a Dsvchological test to be given
at the same time. This is the first
year a psychological test has been
required.
To date approximately 600 stu
dents have availed themselves cf
the privileges offered by regents'
scholarships. This will be the fifth
year that awards have been made
to the graduates of Nebraska high
schools.
Students Eligible.
Each fully aCU edited m boo! anu
each minor accredited school as
listed in the official report of June
5, 1935 may enter any students in
the upper fourth of the graduating
class who will have completed on
graduation twelve units, including
at least eight of the nine academic
units necessary for full admission
to the college they expect to enter.
Announcements of awards will
be made in time for use at the
graduation exercises in the home
high school. At this time the stu
dent will receive a scholarship.
These scholarships must be form
ally accepted by the student before
Sept. 1, or the award will be given
to the next ranking candidate, re
gardless of school.
This wil make the third succes
sive year that 250 scholarships
have been offered. Two years
previous to that the number was
150.
An attempt to get out of the
building by the front stairs was
useless; hot gaseous smoke struck
you in the face. Vision was im
possible. I returned to tr ; apart
ment and hurried down a back
stairway. This brought me to the
ground and past the open door of
the caretakers apartment. It was
Mr. Gropp, the caretaker, who ex
tinguished the flaming clothes of
two women who had rushed
through the flames into his apart
ment. An elderly woman lay on
the bed clad in nightclothes, an
ugly searing burn on her leg. A
man was excitedly yelling into a
telephone. Another woman with
a frantic expression was crying.
"What will we do; what will we
do."
The caretaker stated the next
morning that when the second
woman rushed into his apartment
her hair was a mass of flames.
Hysterically she put her hands to
her head, turninc them. She was

Wahlquist and Parsons Lead
Brownemen in 55-28
Walkaway Win.
Nebraska blasted her 50 point
jinx and mired herself permanent
ly in at least second place con
ference mud by walloping the
Oklahoma Sooners 55-28 Monday
night on the Husker rectangle.
Giving an impression baseball
score with only a 15-12 lead in
the first half, the Brownemen be
gan dropping in points consist
ently in the second canto with
much rapidity and from no par
ticular angle on the court. George
Wahlquist and Bob Parsons netted
30 points between them.
The beginning of the game,
which the Huskers needed in order
to retain their second place stand,
took on the appearance of a low
scoring melee, but the second half
chapter contained a different plot
Within eight minutes of the sec
ond period playing time the home
boys had doubled their score while
the Sooners had sacked only one
goal from the field.
While the Huskers were inspired
by the seemingly magic potion,
the McDcrmott lads took a turn
in the opposite direction with only
center Nelson upholding Okla
homa's offensive standards in the
second half. This was the first
occasion on which Nebraska has
enjoyed a score over the half cen
tury mark, altho on three otner
dates she has stubbed her toe
with only one bucket to go. Amen,
a substitute, was responsible for
the fiftieth counter with a neat
setup. The 16 markers scored by
Wahlquist gives him a safe lead
in the Big Six scoring annals so
far as points go, but in percentage
Ebling of Kansas is still tops.
One Sided Results.
Though most commentators
were pointing to Nebraska all last
week over the Sooner clan, none
expected such one sided results,
just as the Oklahomans probably
did not expect such a mastered
quick break.
Parsons opened the scoring
within two minutes of action, but
Livingston was not long in bring
ing the local fans to the realiza
tion that the Sooners were out for
Husker sca'ps as he laid" in a one
hander. Wahlquist retaliated, but
Nelson, the high pointer for the in
vaders, gave his mates a one point
lead that rode on the books for
several minutes. Whitakcr tied
the score at 4-4 just before Wahl
quist went scoring crazy to pot
eleven points to the Sooners col
laberated efforts of eight. Just
before the half-time shot rang out
Nebraska gave a spectacular ex
hibit of floor work but missed
seven straight setups under the
basket.
Close Margin.
Following the intermission, Liv
ingston whittled another piece off
the margin separating the two
teams and bringing the statistics
to a 15-14 stand. At this point
the crowd lulled back into listless
whispering and it was not until
Parsons let a long fly from the
near center region that was dead
that they renewed their interest in
the fray before them. Wahlquist
came thru with a similar uncon
scious jump turn attempt that
wrought lorth enthusiasm in beil
ers. While Oklahoma was still
content with the lone basket by
Livingston, yhn-i(rbt WhttHlor jru
Parsons dumped in points continu
ally until the board rear C3-14.
After twelve micutes of play
Martin, a Sooner guard, gave
impetus to a MecDermotUmn
rally. Livingston cashing in a mo
ment later only to have his effort
thwarted by Parsons with three
straight and beautiful field tallies.
In the second half. Parsons didn't
have to account for the ones that
got away, for he made god on ap-

RALLY DANCE SET FOR
Committee Finds Diffculty
In Securing Orchestra
Through Union.
Difficulties in securing a dance
orchestra through the union and
administration opposition will pre
vent the carrying out of plans for
a dance in connection with the
rally for the Kansas game Thurs
day evening, according to Fred
Chambers, president of the rally
committee.
The rally dance on the evening
preceding the Kansas-Nebraska
game was to be a new feature this
year, but announcement was made
that the regular rally will be held
at 7:30 in the coliseum as previ
ously announced.
"This gome is one which re
quired the spirit of the entire cam
pus," said Ted Bradley, Corn Cob
president, who asked that a large
percentage of the student body
turn out to show their loyalty to
the university.
The Student Rally committee
will handle all arrangements for
the affair. If an orchestra can be
procured the committee feels it
can secure sufficient administra
tion backing to have a 10:30 night
set and stage the dance, accord
ing to Arnold Levin, committee
Uicmber.
