One choice get- to gether here in Lincoln took place east of town and such campus lites as Sam Francis, Johnny Fol som, the Liulwirk boys and oth ers gathered with their dates, and, believe it or not, food. Which re minds us of a prize boner over heard way last week. Arlo Klum, the football player, was explaining to his date about the picnic he and some of his crowd had cooked up for a certain Saturday night "It ought to be fun," he concluded, "we know a swell place to go, and someone's bringing food." "Oh that's all right!" exclaimed the coed. The mention of Johnny Folsom calls to mind the fact that he and Ruthie Ludwick pretty well cov ered the town during the holidays which brings back memories of a couple of summers ago when those two were seen much, much more often together. They have, we've heard, a date to the Triad if nil goes well from now until the mid dle of May. PI Phi Lorraine Lynne, she of the gorgeous auburn curls, has of late spent most of her efforts on Brandy Backlund, erstwhile pledge president at the Phi Delt silo. We can remember way back in our freshman year of high school when Brandy used to make little girls cry by pulling their curls, so Lor raine is treading on dangerous ter ritory, Tri Delt Leone Wilson, Dow's little sister, returns from a vaca tion spent in Omaha with a Chi Phi pin that is simply huge, and which once resided on the vest of Clayton Mossman, But the first person we happened into on our haunt about town Wednesday night was Leone with a Sig Alph in tow However she continues to The DAYIS SCHOOL SERVICE "A Good Teacher Agency" 1918-1938 Come in and Sea L'l 843 Stuart Blda.

Can't tell you just who the girl was but at one of the houses on the row some young freshman was being bothered excedingly by a man about town who didn't seem to know the meaning of "busy." The man in question appeared at the door one night and insisted on proof that the gal really was engaged. There followed a frantic seach among the sisters for a di mond After looking over the col lective efforts in the house, the pledge finally selected the house mother's diamond, and all was well. What these women won't do! BY THE HAUNTER For three long years Betty Van Horn, Tri Delt, and Gordon Uhri, Chi Phi, have been going steady and now they plan to be married this next fall. But it seems that last summer when the two were apart, Betty met another guy and thus had a summer romance. Luckily in time she remembered Gordon and told the other guy off. About a month ago, the little girl had a birthday and thru the mail an all white riding habit arrived from the summer love. We can't wait till a nice day comes so Betty may be seen out on a handsome horse. Maybe Gordon will buy a black habit. That would be a sight. After a lot of fooling around. Betty Mumford, D. G., has found her man again. That man is Bill Gish, Beta, and a track man to boot. The trouble with the story is that she can't forget her old romance. Four to be exact. When the only one went out of town to race for dear old Nebraska, she went out with all four other loves in three days. Friday night she had the first date, Saturday night the second, Sunday afternoon the third, and Sunday night the fourth. We won't mention any names but we hope the little wom an won't do it again. Last winter Bob Adam's steady turned him down and he didn't like it very much. So he went to Omaha to forget his sorrows. It was pretty coid that night and when Eob got tired of forgetting he went out to a friend's car and slept. The friend came oue some hours later and found poor Bob practically frozen. The Pi Phi's are certainly mean to the boys. To that A T. O. anyway. Pat Brott, Theta, has a birthday IT'S SPRING!

So says Paul Wing, spelling master for NBC whose spelling contests on NBC have become quite popular during the past two years. Also, "Good spellers are born, not made," according to Paul. "The misspellers will never be good spellers no matter how much they study. The best spellers are those who syllabize each word. The persons who spell words at random, without grouping them in syllables, are much more apt to make mistakes." Here is Wing's list of 50 words, neither uncommon or tricky, which he claims are the stumbling blocks of the best spellers. tyninnirul mlMPf II I' lid Imrrllp pniplttou Hiiprrftrilure nimmril wiilnftrot hili'llltlt nhnttnlr fanmnnlrrtr poignant nttrrili'KloUA tlrMIe niulrtulrnl rrneitftl hliHenneiMi wlthf , pnirllely KUrllly Ihlliint llnUnn propeller JiiKiiiir unllkrllr.t helrtigufnm'itt Hi. .11 iibrlnmr corullaiy wrarittu itpnfcfcUlll w r Iv villainy lnliltmi pallrp.VH piniflur t-liislrirnn- cnolly illnquily (IHTlllK Killrkjr IN'nrrnltlc curritl Pel omnlhiisTA langnur tnlll rittln (nt teldclpeile mn.rnMl KFOR, making seven broadcasts every day and gathering all of the material himself. Attending high school in North Platte for the first three years before moving to Lincoln, Ed wards wrote his first news story for the Noith Platte Telegraph and it was nothing less than a sensational murder case. Altho modestly denied by him, it is a matter of record that he learned the name of the victim before the police did! A charter member of Quill and Scroll, high school journalism so ciety, Edwards was made guest editor of the day at the society's first convention at Iowa State university. The selection was1 made by no less a personage tohan Dr. George Gallup, director of the Institute of Public Opinion, who was then a member of the school of journalism at Iowa City. Helen Edwards, John's sister and a former N. U. coed, is now a publisher's play reader in New York City, and John expects to send the script of "Hades' Ladies" off to her soon and see what her professional critical eye makes of it. If you spell 47 of these words correctly, then you may say you're very good at spelling, if you spell half of them correctly, I'll say you're good. . . . Today's Radio Highlights: hr All. 1:3(1 p. m.

This champion competed with horses from Min nesota, Texas, Oklahoma, and the Chicago International Livestock show. The other horse, "Nancy Brown," owned by the Shreve Riding Academy, has been in com petition with "Blue," whom she has occasionally defeated. For the last three years this horse from the riding academy has performed at the state fair and although a steeple chase jumper, won the high jump. At the Farmer's Fair she will be ridden by Bud Shreve.

He suggested that he buy her a permanent wave so when he came to call on her he would not have to wait so long for her to get ready. She agreed and the appoint ment has been made. Try it, steadies, it might work again. Dixie Davis, Chi O. and Elden Neurenbergcr, D. L'., are that way about each other. Dixie wanted to be nice to Elden so she gave him a gold chain to go around his neck with a Utile D. U. emblem to hang on it. Some of his friends tell me he is being called "lover" now.

Graduating from high school in Lincoln In V.YIH, Edwards secured a Job on the Lincoln Star and worked for that publication lor six years. Beginning in !i20 he worked for eight yeurs as a guide at the statJ citpitol, for four years as chief guide Dunn,' that time lie wrote a number of articles fur magazines and newspapers on the ten million dollar structure. He attended the university for three yean, during which time he affili ated with Beta Theta PI and wan editor of the Awgwan. He left school Inst year but hopes to get his degree thru extension work eventually. For the past year he has been the Lincoln newscaster for radio stations KFAH and BILL DARflETT Students spend more money for meat, fish, eggs and poultry "than for any other group of food. Eighty percent of Beloit col lege's men like their eggs fried. "All right. Pec AVce. all right. So you shouldn't have conic to Nebraska. You knew when ymi camp that wo had our troubles here. AVhy didn't you slay in Kn cland where you beloiifr? And 'another thins. How about the copy you M-ern -join;,' to keep me supplied with"? We haven't a thinjr for tomorrow and here it is !l o'clock."

So here we are. Hack from vacation ready to rest up in classes. But enough of that. What, did l'ee Wee see over vacation ' Well, first he saw a rcat deal of Web ster "Ears" .Mills. It all started Saturdav when Webb, Hank Meyers, and Lou Up turn, were in the Calumet eal'e in Ashland about in. Well, Web was pouring- over a road map. (.o, he didn't spill anv mill (?) on the map. What we mean is that he was looking at it.) Now Web is known to be a studious type so it was nothing to see him in such a position. But soon his eyes got bright ami his ears got. red as he announced to the uTotip that .Miss Lau was vacationing in Kearney and 1 hat iC 1liey started right away they could get there in ten hours since it was only 47S miles away. It is obvious that Webster liiis never taken geography because almost every body knows that Kearney is not 47S miles from Ashland, but, a Her consiiltins the map he triumphantly announced that, it was an even 47S. Needless In say, they started out for the spot on the map that Web was eoverintr with his finger so thai they wouldn't get lost. Now if the boys had been wearing these new Bush Jackets that are so popu lar in COLD'S men's department they would have needed no fear. Begardless of where 1hey were they would have been dressed in the latest 'collegiate style. Oil well, maybe Ihey weren't worried about their whereabouts. To make a long story short, Mills had set Kimball as their destination. But liny did get 1o Kearney and Web did see his friend Miss I,au. And he must have had a good time because rumor has it that he returned to that fair city Monday with Doc Klias. Maybe Web returned to see what he didn't see on his previous trip. No, we didn't say he couldn't see, exactly. Maybe Janie Ban was wearing one of Ihose smart new Dorsa dresses from COLD'S. They conic in new sheers and pastel colors and are really swell with eule Bolero Jackets showing Mexican in fluence. When all the kids returned from home l'ee Wee says the night life started to pick up around here. The Thetas, Kappas, and Delta Camillas were well represented at Lebsaek's Hot Chocolate Emporium Tues day evening. Bernie Morris, that bus driving Sig Chi was there in all his glory. At least he was monopolizing the largest table in the place with four (4) beautiful girls. He must have inure 1han a driver's license. Pec Wee says he has lost his faith in young manhood, lie saw Oeorge Ylasnik, biir wig in Alpha Phi Omega, Boy Scout fraternity, at Way's the same evening. Maybe Bcoryo was just doing his good turn around the dance floor. It's too bad to hit Mills so hard loday but be just didn't spend l bp right kind of a vacation. This time Pee Wee proposes an inipiest by the Kosmet Klub into the trip taken by Web and Pres. Elias over they were Irnvel the Klub looking take the Kosinct 1 lie week end. I hey say ing in the interests of for a suitable snot to t his year, hit several Klub slim J I icy state but good bet show at boys slopped of money 1o Wee savs he I owns over Ihc a pretty Pec Wee Ihinks it nat iney wouidn t put on the all the spots where the two Oh well, the Klub has lots pay for vacations but Pee sure wishes he were Presi dent or Business Manager of Hie Klub. He says he needs a new box of bird seed. So kiddies, tie will bid you good night and pleasant dreams unless your eon sciences arc a mite on the guilty side.
