BY THE HAUNTHESS
Here is a followup story on pome
of the initiations that took place
on sorority row last week end.
The Theta's, Triple Delta's, ri
Phi's, A. O. Pi's, Alpha Chi's and
Alpha Xi Dell's did a hurryup job
before down slips were issued
which probably saved the life of
more than one pledge. But that is
just where the Kappa's made their
mistake. It seems that when their
initiation date was scheduled they
did not at the time realize the first
six weeks' announcements would
be out by then. By the time they
had discovered their mistake, it
was too late, so now all K. K. G.
freshmen are just holding their
respective breaths.
Along; with initiation came nu
merous crested gifts to the new
initiates from their proud sorority
mamas. As a local jeweler laugh
ingly confided, he had asked one
"of the Tri Delt's who was pur
chasing a bracelet for her daugh
ter if she knew his niece, Helen
Elizabeth Lawrence Ames. Oh yes,
answered the sweet young thing.
She's my great grandmother.
Which, we believe,, is carrying
things a bit too far.
Another tale concerns Marie
Anderson, who when displaying
her new Theta kite, was greeted
with the comeback, "Well, well,
Marie has a new plaything." But
Marie in all seriousness was so
happy that not even that remark
bothered her. Another little gal
flounced into the Pastry shop
wearing two huge corsages, one
on each shoulder. We couldn't ex
actly figure out whether the girl
was trying to show no favoritism
in whose flowers she wore or just
what she thought the score was,
but ask the Pi Phi's about that.
We hlnsh to riMiieinlxa' BtverlV
Weaver's scanty attire the night
of tne tory kook, dui at leaai
she manaeed to become quite the
center of attention in her baby
clothes caught up here and there
by huge snlety pins, people ten
us that the blanket she so mod
estly wrapped herself in while
traversing the lobby of the Corn
. husker was Ned Anderson's idea.
Saturday night Kva June Sin
clair really let down her hair
which reaches almost to her waist
now and played the role, not of
Lady Godiva, but of an angel
which was set off by Bill Critten
den's portrayal of the devil. We
Shan't say a word about wolves
in sheeps' clothing or vice versa,
but somebody did get a bit catty
about the way Kva Jane's wings
began to wilt during the evening.
Then there's the story about the
girl who had to look in on the
ballroom earlier in the evening
during her sorority's formal ban
quet. Spying the slide and being
an adventurous soul she took the
boards on high bursting all the
buttons down the back of her
gown. But then, girls will be girls.
BY THE HAUNTEIl
As we followed the Chi Omegas
Friday nigm, we aecinen me oniy
nroner name for us was "scsv-
eneer humter." The hunt, which
reniiired the return of various and
impossible commodities, taxed the
ini'pnnitv of all Ki Omairies and
dates and the patience of Lincoln
citizens.
Some items specified were a
Hiram Walker bottle cap, an old
erav bonnet, a mcger in a worm
pile," and something rotten in
Denmark.
Many canvassed the somlier re
gions of Lincoln for small colored
children, hut to no avail. "Some
thing" rotten in Denmark, brought
everything from Hamlet to lim
burger cheese.
Another item on the elongated
list was the initials of Adolf Te-
jeka in south Lincoln. After
scrawling his tag on enough eggs
to make an omelet that would
blanket the old town square, the
man became irate and refused to
sign.
When asked for a rhi ueit
Vncrle Phiick Tnnton heeeed a
Wbitfl Vno-le fillino- station nronri-
etor for one, which he could take
only after leaving his watch in
hock.
Can't resist writing about Jane
Bell and Lou Boyd, Kappas, who
wanted to test their social prowess
at King's Sunday evening. They
agreed with their dates to sit for
some five minutes along the side
lines and wait for a request to
dance from some of the unattached
males there. But their dates were
to sit close by and thwart any
such approaches by stags.
The eager gigolos seemed quite
disgruntled, after mustering
enough courage to ask the fair
ladies, to find that they had dates.
Among stuff of Interest of the
famed costume caper Saturday
was: Virginia Fleetwood and Jack
Ellsworth in befeathered goon
suits . . . Bud Gather with his good
looking high school friend, both
exposing comely limbs . , . Don
Moss and Peg Weavcrling,
scarcely recognizable in black fr.ee
Uncle Tom and Topsy get-ups . . .
George Galloway and Pearl Stuhr,
minus the St. Bernard beast they
tiromised to hrinff . . . Slum Slos-
burg, undecided as to whether he
was farmer-in-the-dell or barefoot
boy . . . Betty Christiansen, wuu
Elmer 'Pohrmann, trying to smoke
a cigarettte through a veil . . .
Bill Crittenden and "Swan" Sin
clair in Devil and angel suits, re
spectively . . . Gorgeous Pat Brott
plenty perturbed because oi w.u
guns . . Alums, a bit bewildered
about it nil.
Hany Itaynio, Sigma Nu, fi
nally done It!
After several years a Mntie
broke upon his countenance (we're
only foolin'. but it's fun) as he
drew forth his hempen offering in
honor of his love for Mary Mar
garet Maly, Delta G.
Over Zeta Beta Tau way, Bernle
White distributed smokes to the
boys and candy to the Sigma Delta
Taus, showing that he means busi
ness with Betty Lou Hirshfeld.
Add to the Ed Weir and son
Last night the frosh grid tutor
was seen crawling about on his
Vianrla nrtri knees hehlnd the free
scale, into which his infant son
dropped a dime last week, with a
hammer and a screw driver. He
was still toiling when the last boy
had left the dressing room.
ie. the "How To
Make Friends" man, dined at the
v.,t iinnuA vesterdav noon, but
was strangely reticent about show
ing the brethren now to turn on
the influence. It seems that he is
not a fraternity man, (he was
brought over for lunch by a Lin
coln Beta friend i, ami whs m1"1'

meal. Maybe now ho can write a
new book now and can it now

Ruthle Huston, Chi O, and es
cort made the Story Book Bailers
plenty chlcle-conclous as they at
tended bedecked with Beechnut
togs, called "on the Beechnut ol
Waikikl." At intermission, the two
went about their mission of sowing
gum (.unchewed) among the danc
ers. All work and no play makes
jack.

When Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek
was kidnaped, his release was effected
not by any Chinese, but by a white man. One
who neither speaks nor reads Chinese, loathes
Chinese food, affects no Chinese custom. Yet
he is guide, philosopher and friend to Chiang
and also to Chiang's kidnaper. Who is this
man? What is his power? See page 5 of your
