i f - J- ' f ; PAGE ELEVEN TllE 1IIV NERKASKAN. WEDNESDAY, MAY 1, 1938 Aluminum Foil to Become Practical Wall Insul a lor m John E. I'aaamora, Wncoln Journal. John Passmore Wins Notice . for Research Article ' In AS ME Contest. ' That aluminum foil will become a popular and practical heat in flation is the "prediction made by John E. Tnssmore, Lincoln, senior in the engineering;, college, whose recent research article won iniru place m a district con lest sponsored by the Americ an Society of Mechanical En gineers. Pass- more predicts a great future for aluminum foil because of its com parativoly low cost, light weight and high insulation effect. Passmore s f lndlngs indicate that when a wall Is Insulated with this material it does not store up heat as In the case of many other Insulations, Foil Saves Heat. "When the foil is used in a hor izontal position, the amount of heat saved ranges from 9 to 79 percent, which compares favorably with other types of insulation," he said, "and the price of aluminum foil Is in the range of other ma terials used for Insulation." Aluminum foil has been put to many other uses, according to Passmore, The government now has 146 of its vessels insulated with it, and, on his last expedition to Little America, Admiral Byrd had his living quarters insulated with the material. Some of the railroads and trucking firms have found it advantageous to use the material to insulate their refrig erator compartments berause, due to its light weight and high insu lating value, it cuts their operat ing costs considerably. Two types of aluminum foil are used in insulation the crumpled and the smooth sheets. The smooth foil is glued to a firm pa per to give it more strength, HURRY!

Dirt No Impediment. Oust collecting upon the sur face of metal decreases its Insu lating effect, but, according to re cent tests, there is but little de crease in the reflectivity of alumi num foil even when dirt has gath ered on Its surface. Passmore pointed out that aluminum used for insulation must have a high degree of purity in order that it may be resistant to coroslon and maintain a high degree of reflectibllity. The foil manufactured today has a purity ui more man 9 percent. PEACE SURVEY SHOWS NEUTKAL SYMPATHIES Sludrnis From 101 Col- Irgrs l'arlicipalr, Fu vor Naval Hill. PROVIDENCE, R. I. (ACP). With 31,015 students from 101 col leges voting in the Brown Daily Herald-United Ptudent Peace Com mittee Survey on Peace, prr nounred sympathies for neutrality, withdrawal of American troops irom cnina, passage of the billion uouar naval appropriations bill, ana estamisnmetit of it. o. T. C. on an optional basis, have been incli cated. Results from the survey are not complete and further statistics will be announced later. Thirty states are represented In the tab' illations to date. American withdrawal from China and application of the neu trality act has a 2-1 majority over collective security or unilateral ac tion against Japan by the United States In the Far Eastern question In the question of a permanent U. S. peace policy, neutrality regis ters exactly the same vote, while collective security ranks a little higher. Isolation ranks low, while the Spanish situation draws but a little attention. Despite the pro- boycott propaganda campaign, stu dents still do not support it as overwhelmingly as has been often stated. Perhaps one of the most Inter esting results is the large vote cast in favor of American en trance into a revised League of Nations, and for action by the United States leading toward pro gressive disarmament; particu larly is this interesting In view of the light vote for an aggressive collective security either through economic or military sanctions. The R. O. T. C Issue brought forth a tremendous majority for optional drill only, with only a few votes cast for compulsory drill even In R. O. T. C. colleges as a whole. Abolition of the or ganization entirely was favored over establishment of compulsory drill. (Colorful '(Coking Corner C7 of Soda Grill i! ill I J - With Its collegiate atmosphere contrasting sharply with the Georgian furnishings of the other rooms, the grill corner of Ne braska's new Student Union build ing will serve as a colorful gather- inc place for students who are thirsty for a coke or hungry for a sandwich. "Cakcrs" will sit at the chrom ium and royal blue tables and see, surrounding them on the walls, murals representative of the fun of university life. From one point reigns the May queen and two at tendants with a Mortar Board and an Innocent peeping around the corner; the honorary colonel dances with the cadet colonel; grandstands cheer and the cheer leader cuts capers while a football hero makes a touchdown; a Ne braska fleet-foot wins some race; and a basketball player makes a basket, all on the wall of one room. Other murals show a stately couple In formal dress ready for a prom; a band man with his plume; and a young blade exerting ftr:l It I Ik. ?2i."kTXiw0" .-mMW'immto,-rinMmm--m n i n ' Mav Awjnvan Puts Romance ' on Logical, Scientific BasisE himself in a serenade. Even a bit of the serious side of school is depicted on the grill room walls, tho .not enough to dampen good spirits. A coed bends over a book and a study lamp while her roommate hangs up washing of lingeries on a line; and a young man, between the next two win dows burns the midnight oil with his studies. Climaxing this show of school stand two students, in caps and gowns, receiving di plomas before they emerge from the Temple of learning. Lincoln Sunday Journal and Star. A bright red strip with a "U N' design forms a high border for the grill room walls, the lower half of which is done in bright blue, tne upper part in a blue pastel shade and the murals The fountain is of black and white marble with silver pumps and dispensers.

Something To Think About. Eight years of dreaming, planning, fighting, and working are culminated today with the opening of Nebraska's new stu dent Union. With this event, our university takes its place among those institutions of higher learning boasting of beautiful and spacious Student Unions. Nebraska's Student Union bene fits, however from the very fact that other campuses built Stu dent Unions before this one. The mistakes, flaws, unwise con struction of other unions have been guarded against and are not in our Union. The better parts, the most modern equip ment and management facilities, and the most commodious plan ning has been Included in our Union. With time, no doubt, will come the uncovering of what ever flaws the union contains which we cannot perceive at present. Other Unions at other universities will benefit as we did. However, we should be thank ful. We have a Union. Let us use it wisely, and to the best advantage.

Seven giant windows, all with Venetian blinds and green and white drapes, provide an easy light with no glare or shadow. The floor is lined in linojeum blocks of dark and light shades of grey. The dining room is not open yet, but will be soon. The simplicity of the room, coupled with the com fort, excellent service, and above all, the food, will make it Lincoln's most popular.

NETSTERS HE AMES AGAIN HIS SEASON M'Bride's Tennis Team Hits Stalemates Cyclones 3 to 3, Friday. Coach Gregg McBrlde's netsters have slipped into a rut by virtue of a 3-3 tie with the Iowa State racqueteers at a dual meet at Ames Friday afternoon, an exact repition of last year's performance which was also a stalemate. The Huskers and the Cyclones divided both the double and single events. Nebraska's number one man Harold Rundle, only a soph omore in athletic competition, dropped his match to Dizon, Iowa State captain and only returning veteran, after pulling up to take the second set. Davis, placed at the number four spot to plug up the weak gap there, succumbed with little resister.ee. , The summaries: tlOUBI-ES: nitnn and HarnMhflmer, (IS) drfratrd Rumllf and Dftrlrh.

Campbell Presents Chart as Help to Young Men in Seeking Love. .Sentimental young men who lose their heads over the ladies will have a guiding post to the right girl when the Awgwan ap pears next Monday, May 9. A chart accompanied by an ex planatory article puts love on a scientific and logical basis, says Editor Bruce Campbell. Love prob lems for all males will be solved by the chart which guides men to romance with the proper person. Such a guide has long been needed the editor believes, and countless heartaches will be eliminated by the accurate chait. Candid Shot in Dark. Social vicissitudes of the women are revealed in a snort, snort story by Anonymous, according to Campbell, entitled "Sisterly Love." The writer here reveals an inside glance on sorority life. Gore section is back in tne new Awgwan with a candid "snoop' shot taken by flashlight in front of the Kappa house.

In an open letter from Max Geller, campus spiritualist, to Mrs. Harry Houdini, wife of the late magician who is trying to contact her husband in the spirit world, he advises her on the proper meth-2 od to follow. "Inside Storv of a Dunked Do nut" fcy Norman Bolker, a hybrid! cross between a short story and" an article, deals with science and public relations. Campbell thinks" this satire will uncover some ofjj the mysteries of public action. A full page of campus carica-" tures reveals exaggerated char- acters of college men who frequent University hall. The editor alsoj praises the candid shots taken ia the tasty pastry of the Cornhusk-, er which appear in this issue ofS the humor magazine. Foreman Draws Cover.
