ABOUT one hundred active and
alumnae members of Chi Omega
will gather Saturday to celebrate
the sorority's national Founders
day. Banquet will be held at the
University club in the evening, at
which time Mrs. R. L. Cochran,
Miss Amanda Heppner and Mrs.
Lowell Thomas, president of the
Omaha alumnae chapter, are
scheduled to speak. Miss Lois
Hiatt, newly elected president of
the active chapter, will serve as
toastmistress of the evening. Rep
resenting the senior class, Alaire
Barkes and Mary Esther Widener
will give farewell toasts, and
Peggy Pascoe, pledge president,
will speak for the freshmen. Fol
lowing the banquet, a house party
has been planned. Chaperons for
the party will be Mrs. Martha
Halley and Mr. and Mrs. Karl M.
Arndt.
COOKIES instead of the tradi
tional candy at the Alpha O house
Monday night! Chi Phi brothers
sent a box of cookies, which had
been sent to Clayton Schwenk, by
a fond parent, to the Alpha O
house (all unbeknown to the
gentleman himself) with the mes
sage, "With love from Clayton."
Imagine hi3 surprise when asked
where the cigars were, since he'd
passed the cookies. The only
tragedy of the whole affair, as fat
as we can see, is that he didn't get
a single cookie.
RECENTLY announced is t h e
marriage of Miss Geraldine Thayer
Folda of Omaha to Eugene P. Me
lady, jr., also of Omaha, which
took place Jan. 17. Mrs. Melady
has attended the university and is

and Blade will be held for twenty
three pledges Wednesday evening
at the Lindell hotel, followed by a
banquet honoiing the new initiates.
About sixty will be present for the
affair.
FLORAL offerings seem to be
quite the thing at the Phi Delt
house these days. The latest is
Bob Hutton who in sending Betty
McDowell a rose every morning be

called love?

DID YOU SAY
APRIL FOOL?
When they say "There'll come a
day!" they have in mind that day
of days when college pranksters
are let loose and young sophisti
cates enter their second childhood.
Even the most languid missc:3
take great delight In tormenting
their sisters and best boy friends
with tried and time worn tricks.
However the more daring stunts
will be attempted by that ancient
society, of which the most prom
inent, member is "Joe College." He
and his brothers will put strings
across sidewalks for people to trip
over, drop pocketbooks in the
street, hand out empty packages
of gum and laugh raucously at the
suckers who fall for their pranks.
Then those who really want some
fun will call up for dates which
they never plan to keep, and may
even pass the candy for some poor
unsuspecting lass and laddie. You
might even get fooled by the open
ing of the park, altho Eddie says
only inches of snow can stop him
now. So hold your hats, keep your
eyes and cars open, and we'll see
you at the park, we hope!
called the "Gruppo Universitaria
Fascista" but familiarly knowy as
the CUE (pronounced "goof"),
oversees every phase of student
life, as it trains him for member
ship in the national fascist party.
It provides for the students'
housing, building fine dormitories
and restaurants for their use, in
which board and room and baths
can be engaged for $30 a month
and less, and in which the meals
cost 25 to 30 cents.
Sport in Italy has almost wholly
been developed under the fascist
auspices; the Italian language
lacked even the word for it. The
GUF, therefore, has charge of all
sporting activities for the students.
Intercolegiate contests are held
under their auspices in soccer,
rugby, basketball, field hockey and
track. Intramural competition, is
provided as well in tennis and
boxing. In the winter, the GUF
arranges expeditions to the moun
tains for skiing; in the summer it
sponsors cycling tours. It even
plans a swimming pool for the new
university city at Rome.
To the GUF, further, is intrusted
the cultural efforts that seek to
prevent over specialization among
the students. In this direction it
sponsors lectures in various fields
of study to acquaint the students
with fields diverse from their own.
Seeking to develop artistic ex
pression, the GUF sponsors each
year a series of contests offering
prizes to the best scholarly work
in numerous fields and to the best
artistic work in the media of paint
ing, sculpture, architecture, cre
ative writing, moving pictures and
moving picture scenarios and Jour
nalistic writing. All scholarships,
indeed, are under their supervision.
Through their arrangement also,
students have numerous ad
vantages, including reduction in
the price of railway and theater
tickets from 30 to 70 percent, re
duction in the prices of books of
all sorts and admission to various
ceremonies.
But more colorful of the activi
ties of th GUF are the political
demonstrations. Some of those
have found their way into foreign
newspapers during the period of
the sanctions, when the university
students, more or less led by their
GL'F officers, have been loud in
their antiforeign agitation.

The tendency of white mice to
multiply rapidly was the reason
that the university .ruling against
animals has been invoked, Howe
declared.
It further was disclosed that one
student had a pet dog that he
spoke to in French, and that a
black cat had survived being
thrown out a fourth story window
to the ground, but these state
ments could not be verified.

The applicant must also pass high
mental tests and possess an irre
proachable record and no debts,
according to .1. Edgar Hoover,
head of the division of investlga'
tion and director of the school.
This example of "G-men" train.
ing is cited as one of many proofs
that in the forthcoming deca.de a
college education will be deemed a
necessity for almost any worth'
while position. The standard re
quircments of the business world,
where It Is no longer possible to
"get by" with just a high school
diploma, have skyrocketed and the
day of the skilled specialist has
come.
Progress and personal advance
ment now demand much more
than a meager education. (From

PROFESSOR SAYS THERE
IS NO HARVARD ACCENT
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Mar. 28.
Harvard insists there is no such
thing as a Harvard accent.
To prove it, Frederick C. Pack
ard jr., assistant professor of pub
lic speaking, recorded voices of
freshmen. All had he so-calltd
accent before beginning their
studies. To prove his point fur
ther, Packard plans to record their
voices again when the students
become seniors. (College News
Service).
And from our Barnyard corre
spondent we learn of the Montana
State student who thought that the
National Press association was a
branch of the tailors union.
James Reeves, 16, of Picayune,
Miss., has a paying but dangerous
business. He raises poisonous
black widow piders for sale to
laboratories.
Kansas Home Economist
Tells Handi-Caps of Health
For Collegians.
LAWRENCE, Kas., March 28.
Health of the college student was
the theme of a recent talk by Dr.
Florence Brown Sherbon, of the
home economics department of the
University of Kansas. Dr. Sherbon
has been giving a scries of talks
on "Health Through the Ages,"
following through from infancy
through the school years.
"If Mary and John went Into
kindergarten at 5 and learned to
take care of themselves in their
little world; if they graduated from
high school with enough knowl
edge of chemistry of their bodies
to make them intelligent in the
daily management of their diet and
habits, if they have learned to
think, and to enjoy thinking, we
need have no anxiety concerning
their future, in or out of college,"
said Dr. Sherbon.
Unfortunately, many, if not
most of our Marys and Johns have
been so busy making grades in col
lege entrance requirements, that
too little time has been paid to the
personal body-mind complex.
"The run of college freshmen
an appallingly ignorant of their
bodies. In their anatomical scheme,
everything below the diaphragm is
'stomach'; food is anything avail
able for the price, if it tastes good.
They do not know how to think,
but are adept at making alibis."
Dr. Sherbon declared the typical
dormitory or restaurant too fre
quently worked on the basis of
providing something filling, rather
than food of the proper dietetic
proportions.
"Health habits of our pair are
apt especially to suffer from ir
regular and shortened hours of
sleep. If John Norman and Maysie
Clare hated to go to bed and
loathed getting up during high
school days; they tend not to im
prove during college. The pet prac
tice is an almost all-night party
Saturday night, with a toxic,
stupifying day in bed Sunday,
and tradition dictates that they
spend most, sometimes all the
night, before an important quiz ,
fighting sleep, in the delusion that '
they are studying.
"In the matter of infections, col
lege students are lamentably care-
less. They relentlessly expose each
other to colds; they wear fur coats
in over-heated class rooms and
they neglect incipient infections
and injuries.
"Mental hygiene in college as- -sumes
ever larger Importance.
Mary and John are now entering
the mating zone of life. If the
college curriculum were planned
to meet their really vital and out
standing personal needs, it would
not only offer hut feature courses
in "How to Discover One's Soul
mate," "The Art and Science of
Successful Matrimony," "The Psy
chology of Sex," and similar
courses to help our pair arrive at 1
a happy solution of one of life's
most important problems."

CONNING THE

By Arlen Crenshaw
Uncle Sam, in selecting educated
men to serve as special agents of
the department of justice ("G
men" as they were nicknamed by
"Machine Gun" Kelly has supplied
a speciific answer to the age old
question, "is a college education
worth while?"
While it is a misconception that
special agents are selected from
only public accountants and hold
ers of law degrees, it is true that
over. 80 percent of the practicing
agents were chosen from one of
these groups. The 12 weeks spe
cial training in Washington, re
quired before the applicant can
qualify as an agent, includes sub
jects comprehensible only to an
educated man, such as psychiatry,
