Mary Anna says .. .
I t's a hard I if e for students
-especially society editors
"If It Wasn't for the Moon,"
Pinky Tomlin style still running
thru my mind, course we weren't
out looking at the moon last night.
Society editors, you may be sure,
don't have time to look at moons.
They have to spend their eve
nings discovering whose heart
Johnny Mason is breaking these
days.
WEARING
is this business of getting around
and hard on the feet too. One
campus queen takes to a pair of
beaten-down bedroom slippers
when she's just around home. Fri
day night she sailed out to the
Kappa formal looking her smooth
est but mentally cringing at the
thought of spending a whole eve
ning in new formal slippers. And
then right in the middle of "All
the Things You Are" her feet, but
hardly her reputation, were saved
by the appearance of a messenger
boy bearing the cherished bedroom
slippers and a note from her all-too-practical
roommate.
THAT GIBSON GAL
Betty, Gamma Thi, docs better
as a socialite than an inmate of
the Home Management house. At
least she was a bit stumped when
faced with a whole week's wash
ing. Betty, not mechanical-minded,
was having all sorts of difficul
ties getting the washing machine
in gear when in walked the
plumber to fix the pipes in the
basement. Betty, desperately
grasping at any straw, approached
the unsuspecting victim with,
"You look like a family man. Can
vou get this thing started?" And
he did!

time, many activities are per
formed by governmental agencies
which are like those undertaken
by private enterprise and which
may endanger the lives and prop
erty of individuals. For this rea
son many persons now believe
that the government sl'ould be re
quired to compensate individuals
injured by action of government
agents."
Nevertheless, the university law
professor pointed out only two
etates, Illinois and New York, pro
vide adequate protection in this
regard. Other states have assumed
liability for certain classes of in
juries, particularly those growing
out of the construction and main
tenance of highways. Still others
permit the legislature to pass spe
cial acts permitting named indi
viduals to sue the state for par
ticular injuries. Most of the states
handle the matter by passing spe
cial acts appropriating money for
the relief of particular individuals.
"In Nebraska it is virtually im
possible for a person to pue the
t-tate for damages for personal in
juries inflicted by state agents,"
Professor Nutting told the group.
'Our supreme court has held that
the state cannot assume liability
by special legislation. The legisla
ture has never assumed liability
for such injuries by a general Ret.
Such a bill was introduced at the
last regular session of the legisla
ture but failed of passage.
Curie
(Continued from Page 1.)
Now on her second lecture tour,
Mile. Curie will discuss her moth
er's absorption in research coupled
with her devotion to her children
and her collaboration with Pierre.
Proceeds from the lecture will go
to the club's scholarship fund.
Famous in her own right as a
playwright, musician, author, the
French woman first became known
in this country through her book
describing her mother's career.
Not a scientist herself, she has a
keen perception and vivacious wit
and is noted for her entertaining
talks.

New ensemble
appears today
String orchestra plays
in Union ballroom at 3
Although all admission cards
for the university string ensemble
concert of 18th century chamber
music this afternoon at 3 in the
Union ballroom have been given
out, early comers
may be admitted
to the seats not
taken, according
to Pat Lahr, Un
ion social direc
tor. The new or
chestra, or g an
ized by Emanuel
Wishnow of the
school of music
faculty, makes
its initial public
performance to
day, and will
play a program
Emanuel wuhnow.of four numbers,
Journal and star, perennial favor
ites of music-lovers. The first se
lection, "Air on the G String" by
Bach, is one of that great com
poser's best known works.
Play Stamitz quartet
Carl Stamitz, who was influen
tial in developing the classical
type of instrumental music, is the
composer of "Orchestra Quartet
in F Major," which is the second
number of the program.
Vivaldi's "Concerto for Four
Solor Violins in D Major" will
feature Marcella Conforto, Mar
garet Porter, Henry Brahinsky,
and James Price as the violinists,
who will be assisted by Marian
Percy, pianist.
Insemination
(Continued from Page 34
States the year she passed her
fourth birthday. That year she
gave down virtually 860 pounds
of butterfat, suspended in more
than 10,391 quarts of milk. For
every day she has been milked she
has produced an average of 55
pounds of milk or 25 quarts. A
few of her ancestors on the "dis
taff side" produced more than 4
per cent butterfat. And one of
them but that's enough about her
lineage.
What of her transportation into
the world? The semen was col
lected by one William Reed, herds
man at Winterthur, the afternoon
of May 3 and flown air mail to
Lincoln in a specially desdigned
thermos bottle furnished by the
American Dairy Cattle Club. The
temperature during shipment
ranged from 40 to 60 degrees.
The thermos bottle arrived in
Lincoln some 18 hours later, with
about half as many of the sperm
still capable of movement as when
they left Delaware. About t "!
hour after the shipment arrived,
the cow was inseminated then
again some nine hours later and
still again the following day, using
1.8 OC eacn ume.
George Trimberger, dairy herda
man at the college of agriculture,
superintended arrival of the call
with great care. For example, the
navel was swabbed with iodine tr
prevent chance infection. And 80
cc's of blood drawn from the
mother's jugular vein were in
jected four places into the' calf's
neck, after the practice followed
by the Nebraska dairy husbandry
department, to give "Gerblair" a
good start in life. She weighed 78
pounds at birth ... a little light,
but "doing very nicely now, th-ank
you." '
The preservation of semen is otie
gate to the new world of artificial
insemination. If that gate is thrown
open or. in other words if the
sperm can be kept in good condi
tion for, say 48 to 72 hours 'then
the inheritance of great sires can
perhaps be flown regularly from
one end of the nation to the other.
And the comparatively few truly
great sires of the world could
number their offspring by the,
hundreds where they now number
them by the dozen.
