Co-ed Follies arc sponsored
by the A. W. S. board but who
takes the blame for a boy's
folly? Can't get over the fact
that there were roughly two or
three dozen people who thought
the title of Kosmet Klub's spring
show could be changed from
"Hades Ladies" to "Hell's
Belles." And everyone thought
it a masterful expression of in
dividual originality ... It seems
that the jelling of candy-bars,
apples, and gum is very profit
able, judging from the increased
numbers of youthful candy
salesmen on the campus. D. M.,

mere coincidence that the

1933 in Lincoln resulted from alack
work, only two-fifths of the 1937
unemployment resulted from that
cause," he says. "The 1937 figures
reveal an increase in unemploy
