In one of his artisan moods drew,
painted, and composed a verse all
for little Bob Ramcy. The gal is
garbed in somewhat giddy colors,
with a coy look on her beaming
face. At the bottom, "Love to Bob,
my big precious football man
Maxine" was scratched. . .and at
this time, Maxine is selling stuff
and things at Magec3.
It is reported that Clark Kup
pinger, A. T. 0., and Frieda Ward,
P. D. Q., are "that way" about
each other. In fact we hear she
has his pin, We're not sayin', we
only heard.
And speaking of pins, quite a
few of the campus men are a wee
dabb worried that they will re
ceive unfair publicity about pin-
hangings. In fact, in the last two
days, there have been three phone
calls to that effect that came in.
Another one of those Phi Delt
Tri Delt feuds are in profusion
again. In fact, the Phi Delt's have
finally chosen the name "Goon
Gables" for the their Tri Delta
neighbors. The climax of the in
spiring name was when Vincent
Lopez introduced bis new number
"Swinging With the Goons." The
Phi's claimed it was written for
and dedicated to these gals with

And in conclusion, we end with
the best remark of the day made
by Dr. Patterson in his ethics

just after the "Consolation Dance."
Cast of characters: Frank Trum

who helped stay-at-homes forget
about the Minnesota game. Vonnle
King and Jo Hopkins, feminine
vocalists with the orchestra of the

Prize wisecrack spewed out of
tne nps of an inebriated Nebraska
gridiron fan who followed the
Huskers to their Gopher defeat
over the week end. Because of his
lack of sobriety, a Memorial sta
dium special policeman proceeded
to eject the whoozy rooter from
the stands. The fan, containing
himself as well as possible, pro
tested vigorously. The cop, now
doubtful, asked the Cornhusker
what the score was to ascertain
the man's condition. The jittery
man paused and slowly lisped:

Amused, the officer released the
man to continue watching the
game ... if he could.

passes (deducting pass losses from
pass gains).
Kansas managed seven first
downs, and Nebraska made its
usual four against the Gophers.
Minnesota gained 326 yards in all
enough to score 30 or more
points had the Huskers not come
through several times to hold the
Gophers. Notre Dame gained con
siderably more 456 yards in all
against Kansas but they scored
even more in proportion to yards
gained.
Statistics, as last year ami last
Saturday bore out, are quum
things. For instance the most oril
liant play of the afternoon Jack
Dodd s 90 yard run doesn't even
fihow up in them. We think thai if
the gquawkers arc going to start
giving points for statistics ney
should include an "opportunities
column." Of course, Jack's 6 points
were worth tin album of statistic?,
but that 90 yards would show up
very nicely in them, at that.
Incidentally, that run of Dodd's,
whether it was 85, 88, 89, "0 or
91 yards (we've read 'em a it is
the longest ever made in thj Ne-nTaskfl-Minnesot.l
series, johnny
Bender made a 70 yard touchdown
v.ay back when, though. One In
teresting thing about Dodd's run
- if it hal to be made, we'll bet
it warmed the cockles of the Min
ncsotan3' hearts that a boy from
a town named Gothenburg made
it.

Boucher Praises
PrcscntCollegians
NSHS Hears Students
Display Reason, Loyalty
Claiming that college -student
of today nre more Intelligent and
more wholesome on every score
than any generation of the past,
Chancellor C. S. Boucher addressed
the 61st annual convention of the
Nebraska State Historical society
Friday evening at the Cornhusker
hotel.
('ompr-ring the youth of today
with that of generations before,
the chancellor said, "Tim they have
less respect for mere precedent and
unreasoned authority, they run be
appealed to on the hiisis of reason
and they are capable of greater
loyalties when built upon sound
buses; they are worthy of trust and
can be safely Instrustcd with
greater responsibilities to them
selves and to others; they Hre a joy
and a satisfaction t- work with."
Friday afternoon's program of
the convention was marked by
speeches from two Ne iraskantt

arts department and Sarah Louise
Meyer, a 1938 graduate, both
speaking on "Nebraska's greatest

Dr. Gregory Plans
Freshman Forums
A series of vocational Informn
tlon forums under the direction of
Dr. W. 8. Gregory, special advisor
to freshmen, will be conducted by
the arts and science college start
ing Thursday, Oct. 6. Outstanding
men In various vocations will be
here to give students first hand In
formation concerning the field they
are planning to enter. The opening
meeting which is for those Inter
ested In social work will be held
In social science 101 from 3 to 5
o'clock Thursday.
Scene I.
As the witching hour of 12 mid
night nears, there can be seen by
an observer stationed in the right
spot a crowd of students dancing
in the ballroom of the Student
Union. Suddenly, the leader of the
band on the dais at the east end
of the room swings into his theme
song, "Blue Holiday". At the end
of the piece, the musicians start to
pack up their instruments.
Scene II.
The scene shifts to room 209 of
tne Union building. Crowded into
this space are chairs, instrument
cases, tables piled high with coffee,
sandwiches, plates, cups and sau
cers and about 13 or 14 musicians
changing clothes, Frank Trum
bauer and two reporters. Amid trie
flying wisecracks, Trumbauer, tall
dark and lean with furrows lining
his face, talks to the two reporters,
every now and then a sip of cof
fee or a bite of sandwich.
"Swing is here to stay. It's been
with us a long time now. I used
to play it in college, and it was
played on the wharfs of New Or
leans long before that. The only
thing that is new about swing la
the name."
Swing by Another Name.
Continuing further, the maestro
predicts for his intcrrogaters.
"Future music will consist of any
thing melodic with good tone anu
with good technique." He himself
favors a style of swing, neither
"wild" nor "sugary sweet" but
the "pleasing medium". If our ob
server had been observing closely,
he would have observed that Trum
bauer lives up to what he says.
When he "swings out wide" with
eyes shut in ecstacy or concen
tration, his music is like a dash
the best brandy, warming and
toe-tingling but not too hot.
Trumbauer's musical career has
been long and varied. He got his
start in an Illinois high school with
a small dance orchestra. When m
went to the University of Illinois
he led his own band, playing ",thi
saxophone himself. During 191 S
and 1919 he played on the U. S. S.
Kansas with the Fourth Regimen
tal band. In 1920, after the war,
Trumbauer went for the saxo
phone in a big way, ordering one
of the goose-necked Instruments to
be made by hand. The job took
three years and cost $1400. Since
that time, he has played with the
Philadelphia Philharmonic Oreh
ertra, the Nev York Symphony
and Paul Whitcrr.an's dance orch
estra, the latter for six years. He
prefers leading his own band how
ever or, as he says, "1 wouldn't be
doing it."
Trumbauer would like nothing
better than to go back to college
if he could now. "I'd major in law
and chemistry." Law because its
useful at any time," and chemistry
because "it would be invalur.blc to
me if I did what I want to do,
work the mineral deposits of South
America. South America is a land
of new frontiers. Opportunity is on
every hand for the man with the
right kind of knowledge."
Praisei Union.
The orchestra pe.ider praised the
apparance and the acoustics of the
Union ballroom. He also thought
Nebraska students more rhythmic
than West Coa:t dancers. "Out
there, they go to cither one of two
extremes, wild hopping or sticky
sweetness with their noses in the
air.
Scene III.
Halls and rooms of the Student
Union.
Vonnie King said she liked to
sing at a student dance "because
students arc such n good audi
ence." While the men of the band
were packing up, Miss King and
Jo (real name Jewell Hopkins
went on a conducted tour of the
Union, exclaiming like a couple of
high school seniors over the fur
nishings and the color schemes.
'More like a private mansion,"
bubbled Miss King, "Id almost
like to live here." The two voca-
lovelles cleared up an Important
point when they both said that
they didn't mind sitting up on a
stage all evening at all. In fact
they enjoy It, "except." said Min
King, "when we play cheap dance
halls."
Miss King was born In Utah and
bred In California. To a feeble pun
on bred and butter, she replied
with a faint. "Oh?" She has been
singing for "Oh, a long, long time."
Annum haired Jo Hopkins was a
trouper at the toddling age of fi.
fine really hegan her singing en
reer at the wise old age of 13.
Having covered every state In the
union, she would like to go to Can
ada now.
Scene IV.
We next find ourselves st the
back entrance of the Student
Union in a crowd of laughing and
talking musicians. Outside await a
number of cars and a truck to
carry the band to Kansas City,
their next stop. Kveryone is kid
ding Russ Soulee, guitarist, about
his new grown mustache. Johnnie
Hamilton, singer, is talking to a
reporter.
"How did the game with Mln
nesota come out?
"I always listen to the broadcast
of that game. Missed It this year.
When I heard we were coming to
Lincoln, I thought I'd see Nebras
ka play. They had to be in Minne
apolis this year tho." Very disap
pointed, Johnnie continued to ask
about the Cornhusker team. He is
a rabid fan and sees the big games
on the west coast whenever he
can. Johnnie isthe smiling, friend
ly collegiate type of the movies.
Having finished his formal educa
tion on graduation from high
school, now he would like to at
tend college, "without the study
ing, however."
Soon, leader Trumbauer, look
ing the successful business man
in a grey pin stripe suit, came
down to give the men instructions.
From the kidding they gave him
at first, it came out that the band,
late in arriving at the Union, had
been delayed by a breakdown of
the instrument truck between
Abilene, Kas., and Lincoln.
One player not new to Nebras
ka U. was bespectacled Jimmie
Oliver, who stopped overnight at
the Thi Psi house on a trip east
with Ben Bernie in 1933. "Many
of the musicians," he said, "are
married, and their wives travel
with them. In their time off they
travel around or work on their
hobbies. Some are amateur pho
tographers." After a few minutes more of
chatting, the playlet comes to a
close as musicians climb into their
cars and prepare to "meet in Kan
sas City Thursday."
