wanted to use as many of them as
possible," Pierce stated. "We had
a number of fine voices at the try

method to include the songs in the
show."
Pony chorus rehearsals started
last Tuesday. More material is
needed, however, and Pierce issued
another cail for all who are in
terested to report at the Kosmet
office in the basement of Univer

Students contributed the tunes '
to be used in the show. They will
be used in connection with re
hearsals of the double quartet and
pony chorus, and some will be sung
by "leads in the show. The lyrics

Daily Nehrasknn Survey
Shows Promptness.
Due perhaps to the prevalence
of "hell week" at this time of
year, a survey made by the Daily
Nebraskan today indicates that
fraternity and sorority pledges at
Nebraska give prompt attention
to the summons of the telephone
bell, for the 23 organized houses
included in the survey averaged
3.1 rings before answering, where
as at the University of Washing
ton, where the student paper
made a similar survey, the aver
age was 3.4.
Nebraska's superiority was fur
ther manifest by the fact that
complete indifference to the tele
phone call did not exist. At Wash
ington, for example, the Theta
Xi's failed to answer at all. and
the D. U s allowed the count to
mount to IS rings before answer
ing, whereas at Nebraska the
was 7 rings, "rung
up" by the D. U.'s. who seem to
be the intercollegiate champions
upon the basis of data available.
At Washington the worst of
fenders in the sorority column
were the Alpha Chi Omega's, who
allowed 12 rings, while at Ne
braska there was a three-way tie
for worst at 5 between Kappa
Alpha Theta. Alpha Delta Theta,
and Delta Zeta. Other fraternity
leaders at Nebraska were Sigma
Alpha Epsilon with a record of 6,
and Alpha Tau Omega with 5.

Some difficulty is experienced
from reflections on the waves due

Sergeant McGimsey, coach of
the squad, believes that Nebraska
has a very good chance of doing
this. Last year Kansas Aggies
wound up in first place, while the
Huskers had to be content with
a fourth ranking. This year,
however, the Huskers are much
improved. They have lost only
six of their sixteen matches.
The Huskers have competed in
this contest for five years. They
have copped it only once, in 1932. 1

stration of public works, stating
that last year's PWA funds have
been exhausted, and that if and
when congress makes a new grant
to continue the work relief pro
gram, Nebraska's cause will be
taken up with the rest.
Many speculations have been
rumored around congress that the
amount of the president's request
for PWA funds would range some
where between a billion and 1.5
billion dollars. However, the
amount will be set and passed be
fore the date of congress' adjourn
ment around May 1.
It is likely that the amount of
the president's request will depend
upon the ammount of the carry
over grants from last year. In his
budget message in early January,
President Roosevelt estimated the
carry-over then at $1,003 millions.
A very large portion of the
PWA grant will be made for non

category will be Nebraska's appli

No one can nay, at this moment,
that tbe reoccupation of the Rhine
land will necessarily lead to war,
but no one can say that it will
not. With French and German
trocips within glaring distance of
each other, anything can happen.
The French are in a bad state
of jitters, and the Germans are
excited; both are heavily armed;
the dreaded "incident" may occur
next week, or next month, or next
year. Who can predict the exact
moment ?
But the combustible materials
are ail on hand. Locarno la. for
the moment at least, dead; the
league is tottering badly: the post
war dream of peace thru collec
tive security has gone tbe way of
most of the idealism which the war
engendered. Confidence in tbe
sanruty of the old game of bal
ance of pnrer politics and mili
tary alliances is on once more.
