PAGE FOUR THE DAILY NEBRASKAN, THURSDAY, APRIL 21. I93tt if- lff BY THE HAUNTER SOCIETY Charlotte Utt, Alpha Phi, has re turned from her recent Illness of mumps anil is as well as ever. She really had it bad. Delirious part of the time and tied up in a pretty bow, so aforesaid mumps wouldn't fall, the rest of the time. And the boy friend came to see her when she was in this condi tion, which didn't help the mumps much. A Tri Delt has broken a date with a Sigma Nu, believe it or not. Bob Zoesch had a date with La Donna Gutrulfie for this Sat urday night. But the lady sent Robin a letter yesterday to tell him that she was very sorry but she is engaged now but maybe they could do it next time. The Kappas have taken up a new pastime that newest of games called jacks. Very interest ing game I guess because the guys are sitting on the porch trying to help. A big display of knees are heing shown right along with the ball bouncing. Marian Inhclder, Tri Delt, has a new bonnet at last. She wore the old model for five months. It was one of the devil types, you know, with things on it that look like horns. And from the back one might say it really looked like the devil! But now she has something new. It is one of those streamlined jobs, all ribbed with a white tassel on the back attached to the crown. It hangs on the back of the head. Her English teacher complimented her on it but it is reported that somebody took up a collection to help out the cause. BY DIXIE DAVIS. There has been quite a change in plans for Field Day. Instead of making it a local affair, the boys have chartered a train to take everyone to Crete for a picnic. From the station everyone will get to Tuxedo park as best they can for the feed. During the afternoon, there will be a baseball game, but the rot ten egg fight will be staged before lunch in Lincoln. That evening they will dance in Crete and fi nally come home on the train a little the worse for wear. Alpha Xi Delta Founders Day banquet will take place Saturday at the University club. The club will be decorated in spring flow ers. The toastmistress will be Mrs. John Deering of Onowa, la. The toasts will be given by Dee Schill, freshman: Rllla Mae Nevin, soph omore; Martha Long, junior, and Florence Steuteville, senior. Mrs. Ralph Rawson of the Philippine islands will be a special guest. After the banquet, the actives will be entertained by skits given ly alumnae and freshmen. Students Offer Soldiers, Steed To Czech Cause WASHINGTON, Pa. (ACP). Odd antics of a pair of Washington and Jefferson college students re cently brought the eyes of the na tion to rest on this 145 year old school. The students phoned the Czecho slovakian embassy in Washington late one night and offered the services of the "Thomas Jefferson Brigade," to the Czechs for the purpose of "repelling the invasion of the Huns." They claimed to have raised 200 men and 60 horses. Needless to say, they had not. Next day they were confronted by a telegram signed by the Czechoslovakian embassy, which read: "Offer greatly appreciated. Can you come here to discuss plans?-' At first rather bewildered, the pair immediately went to work to raise their regiment, and had lit tle difficulty in obtaining the sig natures of nearly 150 other stu dents, most of whom signed up as officers. The group has adopted as their uniform, a blazing red shirt, cal culated to "enrange and dazzle Hitler." CL. tlie -Jir BY THE HAUNTRESS In the spring you're likely to see almost anything. For instance we're not surprised at the sight of a number of Beta's scantily clad, sunning on their roof, or we don't just ga.sp any more when the Phi Delt's turn out for one of those early morning pajama parties right on their front lawn, but what did amaze us, shock us, nid even arouse our ire, was the little group of Phi Psi's doing trapczy acts on the Phi Kappa Psi roof, armed with a telescope. Let this be a warning to their neigh bors. Tis rumored that Rita Alger Is 'oing steady with Jo Stephens. Perhaps that is the rumor, but those who know her best report that last weekend when Jo left his car in her keeping while he was away for a couple of days, two or three other men shared the convenience. Now you can't blame us, because we only heard. When Hal Halstead and Pat Prime stopped going steady. Jack Gellately was right there to step in, and he has proceeded to do so in a very thorough manner. Hal, though, I still definitely in the running. It ought to be a close race. Mention should by all means be made of the a.piring athletes this school l.i turning out. For Instance in the baseball class are such not able as Lucille Anderson. Anne Hoffman, Suzy Bradford (who by the way awing a wicked right), and tiny Jeanne Newell, who doem't do so badly at pitching baseballs i. And then there are the three Beta's who decided to evade blue Monday by starting very early in the afternoon to have themselves a time, which they continued to do far Into the night. They prob ably did something about a radi cal si cutting a class to attend the rinema, bit anyhow It was a good story before we told all. Ed Kcgriat. we're told, took the straight arid narrow hint weekend when h': ordered a glass f milk fit King's. It iiiifchl have been all right if h:M been uxeil to the stuff, but YA'n n.dk days dale bark to hit lnf.iny and there they rnde 1. t-'nncruitorrifri as he wax, It was almost too much. 'Die brotheri didn't have to carry him home, but they came In handy. Last Monday night. Alpha Gam ma Rho installed the following officers: Glenn Thacker, president; Harold Schudle, vice president; Dennis Clark, secretary, and Har ley Dold, treasurer. Alpha Gamma Rho is holding a closed house party at the chapter house Saturday, April 23. A barn dance motif is to be carried out in decorations and entertainment, One of the devoted couples on the campus said it with candy and stogies Monday night. Helen Ann Howie and Willard Jcffery led some Raymond Hall girls and Kappa Sigs down to the dorm ballroom where the singing trou badours and troubadettes did their best, then ilned up to get candy and offer congratulations. Not an alarm clock but a piece of flying chalk awoke Karl Bam enberger in physics class Wednes day afternoon. The bull's eye was scored by Professor Jergensen, who did his Dizzy Dean act from the front of the classroom. In the spring a young man's fancy turns to thoughts of love. Present afafirs over at the Sig Ep nouse seem to be running contra dictory to thia well known and generally accepted phrase. No less than six within the past two weeks have found their affairs with their one and only suddenly severed. Just ask Verne Rewalt, Julian Bors, Gene Walters, Ivan May, feammy Morns and Don Durfee. Tr.e latter, however, we are not definitely sure of. We understand he has been spending the last cou pie of week ends alone wonder what Claire Hustead, PI Phi, has been doing these evenings? Farm House fellows had a birth day celebration last night, and the lady of the evening was their housemother, Mrs. Frances Peltoii. Seniors living outside the house and several alums turned up to make the affair a really festive occasion, with a birthday gift. huge cake, and Ice cream in the form of a large candle. REINHARDT TO ADDRESS TUBERCULOSIS MEETING N. U. Sociologist to Speak On Costs of Disease On April 25. Dr. J. M. Reinhardt of the uni versity sociology staff, will address delegates to the Nebraska Tuber culpsis association convention at a noon luncheon when that group meets in Lincoln on Monday, April 25. He is to speak on the cost of tuberculosis to the individual and to the community. Dr. W. W. Bauer of the Amer lean Medical association, Chicago, will be the guest speaker at the evening session. Christmas Seal sales and the program will be the theme of the convention. thing, as Ed Rusik is helping to put it on and he is a real sand hill man. Who ever heard of sandhill man who couldn't stage a sho-nuff barn dance : Harness and hay have already started to arrive for decorations. They had better be careful or one of the farmers of the house will think he is back home and get up before noon and start to plow the lawn up. For floor show a milking con test will be held with Leo Hans- mire and Eric Thor competing for top honors. Who wants to gather the eggs? The 4-H club picnic coming up Sunday is going to be a good outlet for surplus steam which will be let off as soon as the six weeks arc over. There are pretty good odds that Burniel Gingery and Francis Rehmier do their celebra ting together. So far they have been rather shy about discussing themselves, but who knows? They may mane an announcement next week. The Farmers Fair pony chorus, starring Max Brown and the Mess ersmlth bros., is progressing rap idly, according to Marian Hoppert, committee chairman. It was ong inally Intended that the boy; should wear grass skirts, but due to the shortness of the grass appears that they will have to do without costumes.

About Eddie Cantor's Announcer. Walter King is Eddie Cantor's new announcer stooge on Camel Caravan. King is a native of San Francisco, bom there Nov. 2, 1902, He is a distant relative of Ben Bernie, and a cousin of Norma Taurog, moving picture director. When a child, Walter had an am bition, or rather two of them, to be a movie director or an elec- ician. He made his first sing ing appearance as a member of the Mormon church choir. . .where he fainted dead away when called upon to singa solo, and had to be carried out. Ambitious later to enter on a theatrical career, JValter was up against the opposition of his father, although his mother fa vored his actions. When he was 13, King lost his father and be came virtual head of the family. He left school and found a job as an errand boy. After his vaudeville debut In Boise, Idaho, Walter made a vau deville tour, appearing in 90 towns in as many days through out the Dakotas and Iowa. King's radio debut was staged in Pittsburgh, while he was still on the stage. He has since then written many revue sketches and song lyrics. As for recreation, Walter has enough. He likes to attend hockey matches, and plays golf. He has two dogs, a great dane and scot tie. He collects pipes as a hobby, but does not smoke. His most constant fan is little Jane Withers. . .she goes to see all of his pictures. King is an abso lute fatalist, has no superstitions, and doesn t believe in hunches. He likes old clothes, and like most of us, likes to nap before dinner. Six feet 1 inch tall, Walter weights 185 pounds, has brown hair and eyes. , Misery befalls when least ex pected. So it is with the acters on the Vic and Sade program on the NBC blue network, on every morning from 10:30 to 10:45. Bernardine Flynn (Sade), hat her arm in a cast; Art Van Har vey (Vic) has a sprained ankle and Glenn Webster, the control room engineer during the pro gram is limping about with a broken ankle. The only member of the cast who It entirely sound of body Is Billy Idelson, who plays the part of Ruth. An nouncer Bob Brown and author Paul Rhymer are knocking on wood. "Vic" fell from a dark ened stage platform to incure hit Injury, engineer Webtter slipped, and "Sade" aggravated an old arm injury. Not many night ago. Parks Johnson asked an interviewee on NEC's Sidewalk Interviews if peo pie sang in their sleep. The an swer, "I don't know, but I doubt it." rsow the mail Is rolling in, re porting curious cases of sleep sing' ing all over the otiuntry. One woman said her husband sang in his slumbers the complete chorus of a. i old song he is unable to sing while awake. The wife of a former member of the Saint Louis Grand Opera company said her husband frequently rehearsed In his sleep. One correspondent reported a sis ter who not only sang, but whistled. Another told of a man who sang In his sleep so loudly that the words of hla songs were plainly heard on the floor above him. People will do anything for pub licity! Sigma Delta Tau sorority has 13 radios for the 22 girls living in their house . . . which is a high percentage. I believe that many other houses have a few radios in the rooms of various house men I and women, and I would apprecl I ale it If someone In each house would count the number of radios in that house and send the number to me together with the number of persons living in the house.
