DUELLING
UNI)
SCHOOLING
Duelling's too gruelling, no fool
ing; at least that's the new ruling
of Dr. Gustav Schecl, nazi student
fuehrer.
For omc reason or other, an
honor code was issued to the
nazi student school in Berlin,
Germany, six months ago mak
ing it obligatory for every stu
dent to demand satisfaction with
weapons if his honor has been
violated. Possibly the reason
was to Instill a spirit of exag
gerated pride but whatever the
reason, the result was 178 honor
duels between June and Decem
ber. Too much was enough, the head
nazi man decided so henceforth he
himself in person will review each
duel and get a complimentary
ticket and a ringside scat at each
and every honor vengeance.
Duelling rhymes very well
with schooling but it is some
thing of a novelty to have it in
cluded in the curriculum. On
this side of the ocean, the pre
ferred way to avenge one's
honor is to mutter "Them's
fightin's words," and glare at
the offender until a crowd col
lects and somebody offers to
hold somebody's coat. Once in
a while somebody really backs
up a wicked verb with an equal
ly vicious haymaker but the
damage is seldom beyond the
healing effect of raw beefsteak.
Curses Foiled Again.
There seems to be something in
the blood of our Teutonic brotheis
that demands bloody or scarified
satisfaction. Pistols are forbidden
but cold steel and hot blood form
the usual combination. Dr. Schecl
decided that too many of the stu
dent duels were over trivialities
magnified into mountains by al
coholic stimulation. The story of
a duel could probably be written
in three words: drunk- sober
saber. The following conversation
cot ild undoubtedly incite two Teu
tons to take the trouble to trans
fix t'other with their trusty
sahers.
Nazi 1: "Please pass the beer
mug."
Nazi 2: "What?"
.Nazf TTTlease' pass the beer
mug."
Nazi 2: "Ach, mein (Jott! You
call me a mug, do you? You
have insulted the family ot
Hackenschmidt by calling me a
mug in public. For that I will
cut you into little pieces and
give you to your relatives to use
for a Jig-saw puzzle.
Nazi 1: "Hackenschmidt, pah
und a couple of raus mittenms.
Tomorrow at daybreak I will
take my saber und start Hacken
schmidt into hamburger."
Calling All Scars.
From such small acorns of con
versation do the oaks of duels
grow. Ami whv are the Germans I
so anxious to dissect each, other?
One reason is that their honor
code forces them and the other is
the glory of gaining a scar, pre
ferably across the cheek and the
deeper and longer the better. The
sear is the prewar mark of dis
tinction among German students
and It seems that they still possess
the Karloff complex of their Kaiser-serving
predecessors.
Ubanqi women grow platter
like hps. Oriental females de
velop, or used to, clubfeet and
the Germans try to get scarred,
all tor the sake of distinctive
beauty. The regulation equip
ment which should accompany
an A-1 scar is a monocle (not to
be confused with a glass eye)
and short cropped hair. With
those three things, the only fac
tor missing would be the Iron
Cross. Still, without that bit of
metal a distinctively-scarred
German could undoubtedly exert
a greater influence over Ger
many's fraulcm und maedchen
than our own Gable and Taylor.

STUDENT COUNCIL
AIRS GRIEVANCES
OVER TEXTBOOKS
Members Also Discuss Idea!1938 liccnse plates- The deadline
Of General Election
For Prom Girl.
Personal experiences and remin
iscences of textbook problems
sounded off an othei"wise quiet
session when the Student Council
met yestoulay afternoon for their
regular meeting. The grievances,
about which no action was taken
but. plenty of fire promised, seemed
to take two divisions.
The first is the student coopera
tive bookstore issue. Some time
ago the council, Hfter years of ad
mirable boosting, finally settled
the issue of whether or not to have
a student bokstore. The estab
lishment of the Ucgents bookstore,
however, lias aroused more prob
lems than its founders anticipated,
the council members believe.
Dissatisfied With Bookstore.
Just a little dissatisfied about
the functions of the bookstore as
it now exists, members of tlv
council made it evident yesterday
that they wanted a representative
on the bookstore board and wanted
the power to enter the bookstore
for an investigation of prices as
compared with campus bookstoros
operated for a profit. Several
members of the council voiced
their opinions of the bookstore by
the use of evidence of personal
experience. From the tone of the
expressions, the non-profit basis of
the Regents bookstore will be
delved into.

Ground Hog Says
Spring in Spite
Of Weatherman
And so Ground Hog day has
come and gone, and with it Mr.
Ground Hog. This information, of
course, has all the earmarks of
being just a simple statement, ex
tremely prosaic, unromantio and
uninteresting. But a peep into the
future 'will reveal that the fact !
that Mr. Ground Hop has been
here and gone again is of especial
significance.
Mr. Ground Hog came, he looked
and looked, but in vain. He left
again without seeing his shadow.
This can mean but one thing.
Spring is on its way! Mr. Ground
Hog, however, from all appear
ances, is turning the tables on us.
The weather forecast for this mo
mentous day was unsettled
weather with probably rain or
snow. Added suggestions were
that coeds be prepared for the
worst by donning galoshes, ear
muffs, ski suits, raincoats, and not
forget their umbrellas.
This was not a forecast to be
come alarmed over, however, be
cause we didn't want Mr. Ground
Hog to se his shadow, and the
drearier the day the better. But
what we can't understand is why
the forecaster should continue to
predict cold weather, with prob
ably rain or snow when Mr.
Ground Hog prophesied nice, warm
weather for the near future! You
weren't pulling our leg, were you,
Mr. Ground Hog?

"The Beggar Student.'' one of
the most popular of recent Ger
man musical comedies, will be
presented at the Varsity theater
Saturday, Feb. 5, at 9 and 10:30
a. m. by the University Germanic
department. This sound movie in
German is one of a series given
for students of the German lan
guage. Berthold Ehbecke, Carola Hoehn
and Johannes Heesters are lead
ing characters in the storv, which
centers in Cracow, Poland, in the
ear 1704. The struggle between
the Poles and the Saxons is the
background for the comedy, which
is produced by the double-barreled
romance with two Polish agitators
and the two daughters of an im
poverished, but ambitious, coun
tess. The Saxon governor seeking
revenge for an alleged insult paid
him bv one of the Polish girls ar
ranges for the two young men to
be released from jail and presented
. to the Polish girls as dukes. The
climax shows that one of the lads
is a real duke and the leader of the
t evolutionists who secure freedom
for Poland from the Saxons.

Spanish Civil Conflict Arises
From Land Issue, Says Teale

j Stalcs Educator.
"The land question is the basis
of the Spanish civil war," states
Prof. Lloyd Teale, university in
structor of Spanish who was
traveling In Spain when the civil
war broke out. 'The church has
always been one of the largest
landholders of the country and
the land-hungTy peasanU have
long looked at itt possessions with
envy, for they need land for agri
cultural purposes. On this issue
the clergy split, and the upper
j clergy, the amy and lare land
owners have Joined together and
I are fighting for the rebels."
I Pointing out that the religious
issue waa more apparent than
real, being the product of rebel
propaganda, Teale declared that

Llnch also predicted a profitable
year in advertising volume because
of a new feature which will at

plained that a "Who's Who" of the

Helen Pascoe Points Out
Campus Changes Made
By Daily Paper.
Helen Pascoe, editor of the
Daily Nebraskan, spoke yesterday
at 5 o'clock to the freshman A.
W. S. members who met in Ellen
Smith hall.
"It's easy to start," said Miss
Pascoe. "and anyone can get some- -thing
to do by just coming down,
but the hardest part is to kea;
up the work." She also made clear
the fact that a student's college
makes no difference as to the ypj
of work he may do. "A student
may be registered in any college
from business aJn.iJi:i;tration to
teachers; the only requirement iJ
an interest in journalism."
Miss Pascoe also said that re
liability and regularity are essen
tial in order to do commendable
work and gain recognition. She
said that there is a wide variety of
possibilities in the work, and that
originality on the student's part
will provide many items which will
give the student practice without
his waiting for special assign
ments. Limit Activities.
"Limitations of activities is es
sential," she said. "One cannot
enter a great many, and do his
I best in all of them. This is cs-
penally true in publication work.
, which requires a great de.il of
time.
One of the main purposes of the
Daily Nebraskan, according to
Miss Pascoe. is to carry on special
campaigns for changes and better
ment of the campus. She gave ex
amples of the changes accom
plished in part by effort of the
Nebraskan, and expressed the
hope that even more might be
accomplished in the future.
