Flying thrills hit
CAA students
in first soios
The whine of motors tuned for
a solo flight, and the thrill of be
ing a llyer has already loucneu
some of the 47 Nebraska students
who are taking the air training
course offered by the Civil Aero
nautics Authority.
A large percentage of the 47
registered, including three girls,
have already proved their wings
alone. Solo flights for the rest are
planned in the near future.
To finish ground-work.
Within the next two weeks, the
students registered will complete
their ground-work classes. The
bugaboo of finals will come in the
middle of the semester for them,
for all the students to complete
the course must take standardized
tests sent out by the Civil Aero
nautics Authority. These tests
cover basic material in meteorol
ogy, aeronautics law and princi
ples, and in navigation. If these
tests are passed, the classroom
is closed as far as the students
are concerned, and they are inter
ested only in flying-.

an hour and a half.
The new system bars all other
forms of electioneering, except for
short dinner speeches at organized
houses by faction delegates. The
delegations are not to exceed four
members.
Recommends festives in Temple.
Michael, who presented the plan
for Council approval, recommended
that the rally be in the Temple,
because of its large seating ca
pacity and the facility with which
the rally could be kept in control
in such a place. He also suggested
that attendance be required of all
Council members at the rally.

Joe "t nuti and his orchestra would
play for the Junior-Senior Prom
to be held on March 2. The Coun

BALLROOM
Ain't he smooth!
No sartorial pansy exactly,
but he's my choice for BDOC
By Bob Aldrich.
Determined to find out who is
entering the celebrated BDOC con
test this year and why, your re
porter set out to interview various
candidates. First was Ambrose
Bilge, sophomore in engineering
college. Ambrose is nearsighted,
wears his hair long, and was voted
Least Likely to Succeed in his
high school class.
We found him in his room,
mending holes in his shirt and get
ting his finger jabbed with the
needle.
Modest Ambrose.
"Yes, I'm entering," Ambrose
said modestly. "I didn't want to,
but my friends insisted. Terhaps
it was because they saw me last
week in that lovely brown leather
jacket with green stripes, left over
from painting the porch last sum
mer. The soft, turn-down collar
and the zipper that will pull up
only half way are features that
give this jacket that masculine ap
peal." "Another favorite costume of
mine," Ambrose continued, "con
sists of dirty corduroys and one of
those sleeveless shirts that must
have been designed by a drunken
surrealist. I never fail to leave the
the shirt tail hanging out. But
perhaps I'm talking too much,"
Ambrose said, lowering his eyes
modestly and throwing his shirt
out the back window.
The new 'high shades.'
Herman Mergenthaler, now in
his third year in the junior class,
smiled as we sprang the question.
Herman was charming in a bright
green sweater with leather patches
I on me sleeves and the words
"Ogallala High School" on back
wards, due to the sweater being
inside out. Shapeless blue pants,
bright orange shoes, and a tie of
morning after lavender set off
Herman's protruding teeth and
gates-ajar ears.
"Yes, I'm a candidate," Herman
said, "and, frankly, I expect to

had convened, no one seemed to
know definitely how or when the
Prom Girl would be elected. When
the issue came before the Student
Council, there wasn't anything def
inite that they could do about it.
Genius came to the top and they
mastered the situation by saying
"If the Junior-Senior Prom com
mittee should choose to hold a gen
eral election, that election shall be
held next Tuesday and be super
vised by members of the Council."
The burden shifted.
That shifted the burden of de
ciding what kind of election should
be held. It must be decided by he
end of this week for if they choose
to make it a general election, the
Council must be notified in time
to prepare for the election.
Last night, Co-chairman Burney
insisted that- it was to be held at
the door on the night of the Prom.
Co-chairman Bradstrcet, however.
took exactly the opposite stand
I when she declared that the Prom
I Girl should be elected at a general
I i election.
So, the situation stands unde
cided. Anyone's guess is as good
as the next fellow's. Students may
or may not go to the polls Tues
day. The Prom Girl will be fleeted
sometime.

shirts that would make any Ring

I've been arrested twice for cre
ating a disturbance in my bright
yellow topcoat, blue suede shoes,
flaming red hat, and slime-green
tie."
Gasping for air, we rushed out
side and ran into Boris Slaphapski,
arts and sciences senior, who was
in a terrific huff.
'A pansy I yam'."
"I'm sore at the whole deal,"
Boris snarled. "I didn't want noth
ing to do with this sissy dressing
up stuff. But what happens? A
bunch uh my 'pals' sign me up and
now, instead of bein' comfortable
in filthy green pants, turtle-neck
sweater, and no shirt, I actually
gotta comb my hair, shave every
day, and get my suit pressed."
"I'm so ashamed, I sneak home
by back alleys every day. If any
of my friends saw me, I'd die of
mortification. Why, I had a reputa
tion as the sloppiest guy on the
campus. And now, look at me a
sartorial pansy!"
