Phoney Fool in
One of the ' things most fun
about a practical joke is, of course,
that it be taken seriously. The
School of Music's Miss Tierney
spotted yesterday's headlines from
the front of one of her music ap
preciation classes concerning: the
resignation of Chancellor Burnett.
For a moment she was stunned
And incredulous, then she read the
account of the proposed change of
administration, and asked her stu
dents when it took effect. Im
pressed when they told her that it
would be soon, she studied the
'story further very closely, and
then inquired, "Who is this Fran
cis; will he make a good chan
cellor?" Got Into 1 he vinp
It is to be hoped, my fine fac
ulty friends, that your vacation
fun has not kept you from your
pursuit of the niceties of swing
time. Long ago we became cal
lous to your professional indif
ference to any of the really finer
things in life, but we maintain
our determination to learn ya a
t'ing or two if it's the last thing
we ever do. We feel that the pos
sible benefits to the earnest few.
few though they be, will more
than compensate for the long
tedious, fruitless hours with
those pedagogues who are not
part of an educational institu
tion to learn anything,
i And so this week's lesson in
swing will be an excursion into
the hideaways where swing time
was bora, and is being lovingly
kept alive. These hallowed spots
are far from the beaten paths, the
clamor of the multitudes. Usually
they are obscure night dives, too
small even for a hankie size dance
floor. There the devout gather of
a nigl.t and early morning to at
tend the birth of a hit tune. The
musicians, such as the inimitable
Stuff Smith, try out unpublished
music. They extemporize, they re
arrange, they transpose, they play
around, under, over, parallel to
the written melody, meir eiions
comprise a highly refined labora
tory science.
Aiding ana abetting inese ex
nerlmentations in music still wet
from the composer's pen are the
Impromptu "Jam Sessions," ac
counts of which are current
reading material. In these get
togethers, the swingers by train
ing and religion go about re
birthing music. Scorners, like
all true swingmen, of written
scores, they take off from the
melody in extravagant flights of
elaboration, sometimes dressing
up an old tune until it Is quite
unrecognizable. These sessions
are all for love, for the sheer joy
of playing and creating. No
one can ever fully appreciate the
, history that passes in the night
of a swing-potent jamming.
Eventually the note news from
these breeding grounds reaches the
outer world. Soon the tricky
thrills and rnwdv rhvthmns arc
khousehold whistles and ether wave

Orchestra to Play for
Production of 1937
Musical Comedy.
"Ear-O Ranch" as presented
this year, will be rewritten, repro
duced version of "one of the best
musical comedies that Kosniet
Klub has ever staged." It was
originally written and produced
under the direction of Herbert
Yenne, instructor in the Univer
sity dramatics department, in
1932. At that time Yenne took the
leading comedy role of Mrs. Van
Fleet, gay divorcee who comes to
the dude ranch to recover from a
nervous strain occasioned by her
recent divorce.
New Songs, New Gags.
Completely modernized with
new songs, new gags, and new
actors, Yenne modestly predicts
that "the show will be even bet
ter than it was when originally
produced, if possible."
With a oast of campus cele
brities well-known as singtrs and
comedians, Kosniet Klub members
say they are very optimistic con
cerning the success of the show.
Kermit Hansen will play Yenne's
former singing comedian part of
Mrs. Van Fleet. Thurston Phelps,
whose antics created a near panic
in last year's show, protrays the
role of Judge Van Fleet, who, feel
ing the need of a rest following
his wife's divorce, also descends
upon Bar-O Ranch for a vacation.
Arizona Ranch.
Eill Strong, who played the in
genue in last year's production,
has been selected for a parallel
role, and plays the part of Lynn
McAllister, the girl who owns and
operates the ranch. Spud, the fore
man of the ranch and Lynn s
lover, is portraved bv Don Boehm,
whdo also took the juvenile lead in
"Southern Exposure.
Villain of the plot is Bert Mc
Allister, who poses as halfbrother
to the heroine. This part is ably
played by Waldemar Mueller. Irv
Kuklin, popular campus tap
dancer, takes a comedy part as
Lil, a second Mae West who, with

Rosenlof, Gross oehme Plead
Educators Launch Program
to Reduce Unnecessary
Accident Toll.
The mounting automobile death i
toll, the grating of fender against
fender and the sickening thud of
crashing motor vehicles has too
long been taken for granted as
the byproducts of a highly me
chanized civilization.
In the opinion of Dr. George W.
Rosenlof, professor of secondary
education at the university, and
William Grossoehme of the Lin
coln schools, many of the 37.000
deaths from automobile accidents
in 1935 could have easily been
averted had a genuine safety con
sciousness prevailed thruout the
country.
These two Nebraska educators
have decided to launch a safety
program, entirely of their own de
sign, which if adopted by the high
schools of the United States
should, within the next lew years,
prove its soundness by an astound
ing reduction in the nation's ac
cident toll.

OPEN BIDDING FOR

Construction Will Begin
Immediately After
Contract Is Let.
Bids for the construction of the
Student Union building have been
advertised and will be considered
for final action at a public meet
ing in the office of L. F. Seaton,
University purchasing agent, April
16. At that time sealed bids of
fered by interested contractors will
be opened and final decision will be
made. Mr. Seaton announced.
Altho it seems that there has
been considerable delay in the
opening of the bidding, it should
not be blamed on any one agency.
Seaton declared. The matter has
to go thru a number of different
hands and is necessarily delayed.
As swm as the bids arc read
! at the April 10 meeting construc
tion will get under way, ana 11. is
hoped that the building will be
romnleted this fall. $100,00 will
be expended in the construction of
1 the new activities building, and
'the concern that meet the most
j satisfactory terms will be given
the contract. Seaton announced.

Final Program Thursday
Features Barkalow,
Miss Peterson.
The final program in the current
series of University features pre
sented over station KFAB, was
given yesterday afternoon at 5
o'clock.
During the first half of the 15
minute urogram. Major Barkalow,
senior officer of the University
Field Artillery Unit, was inter
viewed by Bilf Clayton on the sub
ject of military training. The pro
gram was then turned over to Bill
Newcomer, who presented Vera
Mae Peterson in a monologue.
Although this was the last
scheduled broadcast until the
Pontiac Variety show, it is hoped
that others can be arranged in the
near future.
The other two programs of the
series which preceded that of yes
terday afternoon were concerned
with imparting to the listener a
better appreciation of life and
events at the university.
Featured on the first broadcast
were interviews with campus per
sonages of note on subjects of gen
eral ir.1frc.st to both students and
ihor- not connected with the uni-wr.-itj.
The second program was
made up of selections taken from
the Kosmet Klub show "Bar-O

TICK HMDS TO
KHINO EXHIBIT
Three tick birds ordered sev
eral years ago by Dr. E. H. Bar
bour, director of the University
museum, arrived here Tuesday.
The birds are to be mounted with
the museum's large black rhin
oceros. These birds resemble the
cowbird in appearance and are
generally always found in associa
tion with wild herds of rhinocer
oses. According to Dr. Earbour. it is
difficult to tecure these birds now
because of the restriction placed
upon hunters. In his wild state
the ihinoceros is generally accom
panied by one or more of the tick
birds who perch upon bis back and
by dint of their strong white beaks
are able to reach into the folds of
the skin and pick off the ticks
that bother these big pachyderms.
These three secimens. which are
a part of the Adam Ereede Afri
can collection, will be mounted on
the back of the museum rhino-
i ceros in the next lew days.
