THE DAILY NEKI5ASK W, TUESDAY. MA1SC.II 1. !.
BY THE IIAUNTKESS
Business Is picking up for spook
ing. Today there was an honest to
goodness letter addressed to "The
Hauntress," nnd this containing a
juicy hit from one of my assistant
haunters vidently. But the most
helpful person I've met of late is
the Fiji housemother, Mrs. Mlnier,
who mentioned some choice items
quite by accident before she rea
lized whom she was talking with.
So now there'll probably be a
closed door policy toward your
hauntress in that house for the
future.
If you didn't go to children's
theatre .Saturday you missed aome
thing. The players presented "The
Indian Captive," and Rita Algcrs
tit all her glory took the part of
Shining Leaves, only everyone
called her "shining legs" instead
because her skirts were a bit on
the .shortish side. During rehearsal
last week one of the fellows asked
Miss Howell where he should brand
the captive, and "The Queen" re
plied "on the upstage," which made
Rilla Mae Nevin most indignant
because in the first place she
hadn't known she was to be
branded, and secondly she resented
the implication that she had an
upstage. At least that's one part
wc didn't learn about in biology.
'Tis rumored that the first of a
series of three pin hangings at the
Thcta Xi house isn't turning out
so well. Marian Stone is no longer
wearing George Heike's pin and
he seems to be the only one sorry
about it.
The Thi Delt Bill Williams looked
like he'd found a long lost friend
Sunday when he spied a girl at
the house. It seems that none, of
his pledge brothers have been al
lowed to speak to women for al
most a week now which is sort of
cramping Bill's style to say the
least.
Another thing the boys at
Charlie's place have to do Is an
swer telephones, "Phi Delta Theta,
pledge Beta," which has no reason
tho it does rhyme. Wouldn't the
brothers who hide behind their
glass brick staircase be in a fine
spot if a few of their prize fresh
men had gone Ecta?
The A. T. O.'s quite evidently
have found out that Pat Jensen
Is quite an apt reader so last week
they shipped over a variety of
literature of the unmentionable
variety, and while Chatter gave it
scarcely a thought, the rest of the
chapter poured over it until the
wee small hours.
SOCIETY.
Lloyd Grimm, that basketball
player with a style all his own, re
cently pledged D. U. He is a jun
ior from Omaha.
Lambda Chi Alpha is opening
the spring party season with its
annual formal the evening after
the prom. It will be held at the
Cornhusker, Saturday, 9 p. m. The
ballroom will be decorated in pur
ple, green and gold balloons, the
fraternity colors, suspended from
the ceiling in huge nets. They
will be released during the Sweet
heart number. Anna Mae Win
burn and her Negro band will dis
pense hot rhythm for the affair.
The bids are about the classiest
Issued this year. They come in
pill boxes with dispensary slips on
the top. On these are written the
prescription number and name of
the guest invited. Inside the box
is the prescription itself on green
paper engraved In gold. It tells
you that you need a change of
social activities which consists of
going to the Lambda Chi formal
for three hours dancing before re
tiring, taken once a year from 9
to 12 p. m.
It will be quite a snazzy affair
so be sure and be there and get in
on a grand band.
A few Acacias invited dates over
to dinner Sunday noon, for no good
reason at all, unless it would be to
eat. Those present were Jean Si
monson and Rac Rimonson, Peggy
Pascoe and Butch Larsen, Irene
Saybold and Jack McKiiuio. Helen
Pascoe and Walt Zinck, and Ruthie
Stephens nnd Jim Minnick. Inci
dentally Ruthie and Jim have a
date to go to see Fletcher Hmder
eon, who is coming four weeks
from Friday, which all goes to
how that he doesn't believe in let
ting the future take care of itself.
Thl Delts are having their spring
formal Saturday evening at the
Lincoln hotel. Russ Gibson and
his orchestra will furnish the mu
sic for the evening.

Oh joy, once again fan mall!
The letter reads:

"Do you know what Chuck Tan
ton, Beechnut rep, would say at
Grant's tomb?" asked Dream Girl
Kosewater the other day,
"No," wc repjlied.
"Lafayette, wc have gum!!"
Ain't that awful?
Kverett Deger, Kosmet Klub
lead man, polled laughs from the
masses Saturday when, at the loss
of his time piece, he posted signs
hither and yon that read, "If you
find my Klgin wrist watch with
my name on the back of it, it Is
mine. Signed Everett Deger."
Dcger is the same, man who
composed the placard on the Sig
ma Nil dorm door saying, "If you
have lived here six weeks, we ex
pect you to be able to find your
bed In the dark!"
Then there is Ivan Bors, Sig Ep,
who dialed his finger away to a
stump trying to contact Olive
Speith of the dorm. Time came
for the switchboard operator to
close shop and Bors still ' hadn't
talked to the gal. Consequently,
he wired the girl. Wonder what
Eastern Onion rates are from one
side of the street to the other?
Porky Nuerenbcrger has been
the recipient of much fan mail of
late all done up in scented envel
opes. The general text of each
letter is that the writer, a female,
would like to meet the burly shoul
dered DU athlete. Once she sug
gested a meeting place, but Porky
thought it was a gag and failed to
show. Later she utilized the tele
phone to try to convince him that
all was on the level.
"I know your name and what
you look like," the voice claimed,
"and I want to meet you."
Nuerenberger named 3:30 at a
downtown store as a locical site
for the introduction", but when he
arrived some 43 minutes late, no
girl was to be found. Yesterday
he received a scrap of corduroy
trousers thru the mail, which the
ardent claims belongs to Porky.
No doubt by this time you have
heard about the pajama fest be
tween the Phi and Trl Delts. Noth
ing serious, merely the attempting
to outdo the other in hanging
gaudy sleeping apparel out their
respective windows. But the thing
was carried a bit far when the
sorority and fraternity children
started confiscating each other's
belongings. The climax came when
the boys in the glass house sur
mounted their flag pole with a
pair of scarlet and white pajamas
belonging to a Tri Delt pledge.
We understand that alums of the
two houses, to put it mildly, were
plenty indignant about the whole
situation.

fore where all the nurses kissed
the fellows good night." Most of
the departing patients are looking
forward to the time when they may
return and, with no final exams
in the offing, may enjoy a really
extended sojourn.
Cigarette-less Days.
The one grievance bemoaned in
the pages of the infirmary record
is the interminable "two days 4S
hours without cigarettes." Artis
tic tendencies are expressed in
realistic sketches of the patient's
room with intricate borders of
water pitchers and physicians' in
struments. The victim of a horse
back riding accident vows that "if
horseback riding is the thing that
brings me here, I shall go riding
more often."
"What would have happened if
I had called you Wilma, Miss Pro
haska?" wonders one patient. Paul
Amen of football and basketball
fame regrets that he has "grossly
violated ruloM, Sec. 5." but stiil
maintains that it is a really swell
institution. "It would be more eco
nomical if we had an infirmary of
our own," writes another ox
patient. "The boys like the place
so well we always have from one
to a half dozen here year in and
year out." All in all, campus con
valescents regret the time of their
leave taking and join in saying
"bottoms up" to the "crew" at the
infirmary.

Symphony to Give Second
Performance Sunday;
Features 'Cello.'
The second concert of the Uni
versity of Nebraska symphony
orchestra under the direction of
Don A. Lentz is scheduled for Sun
day, March (!, ut 3 in the coliseum.
Feuture of the program will be the
rendition of the famous Haydn "D
Major Concerto" written for 'cello.
Miss Bettic Zabriskic of the school
of music faculty will play the con
certo, which according to c ities is
the most taxing of standard 'ccllo
orchestra compositions. She just
returned from a year In Europe
where she studied with Casals and
Alexanienne.
In addition to the Haydn number
the orchestra will present a pro
gram selected from the better
known works of GoKlmark, Mous
sourgsky, Glazounoff and Smetana.
The orchestra is composed of nbout
85 students and is one of the best
balanced ensembles to represent
the university. A spring tour is
planned by Director Lentz which
will take a group of select players
to various high schools over the
state. The program next Sunday
i's free to the public.

homes on the seashore for vaca
tions. Docs this seem to you to be
evidence of the inhumanity which
newspapers arc continually decry
ing? The certainty of finding Vour
milk bottle safe on your doirstop
in the morning, of not fearing to
round a corner lest a gun he thrust
into your ribs this feeling of se
curity is what Hitler's regime
means to the average German.
With a decrease in unemployment
from 7 million to 500,000 within
the past five years, it is no wonder
the people feel that they are better
off. They see in Hitler, too, the
best chance of getting their col
onies back."
Jew Persecutions Overdrawn.
The persecution of the Jew has
been greatly exaggerated, Stobbe
believes. The whole movement
against the Jew goes back to the
period after the war, when they
began moving in from Russia in
alarming numbers, taking over
whole industries the moving pic
ture industry becoming entirely in
tho hands of Jewish owners. Re
cently the "persecution" has been
relaxed to a great extent. Within
the past few weeks "Stuermer," a
violently anti-Semitic paper, has
been suspended.
The whole series of religious
measures has been brought about
by a desire to keep the church out
of politics, according to Stobbe's
account. Anti-nazi ministers used
their pulpits as instruments to in
fluence the people against the re
gime. Over zealousness on the part
of minor officials, of course, ac
counts for many of the acts
against the church, just as ovor
zealousness on the part of minor
officials resulted in outrages here
against German citizens during the
World war.
The recent resignation of army
officials resulted because of the
loyalty which the army still feels
toward the kaiser. Yon Blomberg
was in reality loyal to Hitler,
Stobbe believes, but other officials
made his postion so uncomfortable
that he resigned.
No Austrian Alliance.
As to the recent Berlin-Viennese
conference, Stobbe feels that there
is no reason why Germany should
not be friendly with Austria. Hit
ler's aim there, he believes, is im
proved trade agreements alone.
"Schuschnigg is as much a dic
tator as Hitler. Tho majority of
the Austrian people doubtless
know nothing of the negotiations
with Germany."
Hitler's avowed intention of de
fending German citizens in Czecho
slovakia may prove to be the un
doing of his present plans, Stobbe
maintains. "There is no doubt that
the people of a large section of
Czechoslovakia are suupathotic
with Germany and wish to be tuij
ucr uerman control, nut witn me
valuable natural resources which
these sections contain, the Czechn-
slovakian government will resist
a long time before they give them
up."

what it was all about. We saw
the drummer putting on a fairly
good show and concluded that he
was getting tho approval of the

game two of our very good friends
stuck pins in our pride by telling
us that tho crowd was cheering the
apple throwers, who were enjoying
