Social workers
find themselves
behind prison bars
For a few moments yesterday
prison seemed a reality to sleepy
students walking up the south
steps of Social Science as they
faced their images staring from
behind the heavy bars of a prison
cell.
No, the students were not in jail
They were merely looking at the
central piece in the Graduate
School of Social Work's exhibit
which deals with the crime prob
lem. Instead of looking out from
behind the bars they were seeing
themselves in a large mirror on
which the bars of a prison cell
door had been painted.
As soon as they recovered from
the shock of seeing themselves in
prison they saw emblazoned across
the bottom of the mirror the words
"You are involved in helping solve
the crime problem." The balance
of the exhibit deals with the
causes of crime, the problems met
in the process of the rehabilitation
of prisoners, and some of the meth
ods by which the crime problem
might be solved.
Union to revive x j
old square dance
NU students to try
ancient steps Friday
The Union is beginning a new
form of entertainment for stu
dents by holding an old-fashioned
square dance next Friday from
4:30 to 5:30. There will be no
charge for the dance, which will
be held in the ballroom.
If the venture proves successful,
the Union will make square danc
ing a regular weekly event. It has
not been tried here for many years,
but it was decided to let the stu
dents take a look at the old-
fashioned form of swing, since it
is having such a great revival at
other universities.
Caller for the roe down will be
Ray Marcks, a student from Wyo
ming where square dancing still
holdj the floor over Jitterbugs.
New pictures
hung in Union
Prof. Kirsch directs
changing of collection
With the recent changing of the
pictures hanging in the Union, a
new program of regularly refresh
ing the walls of the lounge, book
nook and dining rooms with pic
tures drawn from tho collection in
Morrill has begun.
The next change will be made
late this spring. Details of the
program, under the direction of
Prof. Dwight Kirsch, are not yet
complete. Cards explaining each
picture and giving details about
the artist are being made for the
set now hung.
One of the pictures hanging on
the north wall of the lounge, Bir
ger Sandzen's "Cedars and Rocks"
was a present to the university
from the artist himself. The others
are drawn from the collections of
the Nebraska Art Association and
of Will C. Gregg, former Nebraska
student. "Edith," who hangs In the
lobby, is a part of tho Gregg col
lection.

Song iitles,suggest
campus cognomens
to musical muser
Sing a song, give its title, and
behold, someone's name flashes
across your brain. Listen to the
refrains of "You Must Have Been
A Beautiful Baby," and out of no
where comes a reminder of Sig
Alph Pledge Ray Smith. To link
DG Gen Harmon with a one word
song title it is easy to think up
"Goofus." Jim Kirkendall of Sigma
Nu should have for a theme "I
Must See Annie Tonight," while
rhi Pal Boo Ball and Kappa Lou
Benson could co-star as "Two
Sleepy reoplo."
"What Do You Know About
Love," Butch Luther and Theta
Betty Lou Griffith of "Jeepcrs
Creepers, Oh, What Peepers" ap
pearance seem to be getting along
all right. If a band starts to swing
out with "Between the Devil and
the Deep Blue Sea," Claude Wil
son's face comes to mind. Lloyd
Grimm of DU Is a reminder of that
once popular song, "I Fall Down
and Go Boom," while his frater
nity brother, Howard Lynch is a
good bet with FDR Jones.
If Pat Prime, Alpha Phi doesn't
take precautions, it will be neces
sary to croon "Little Fraternity
Pin (s)" for her. And for Dixie
Davis. Chi Omega. "I Wish I Were
In the Land of Dixie." With an ar
ragement of "A Study In Brown"
come thoughts of Beta's Gannon
and Hansen after the Christmas
trip to Florida. And now that this
article is ending, "I'd Better Get
Out of Town."
