Monday, April 1, 1940 THE DAILY NEBRASKA Society ... Well, if this is lifeand love at NU, give me an aspirin By Agne Wanek. Bad news is In store for the picnic-minded aoclalites. Aa , long as this column seems to forecast the weather day after day we may as well break the news that we have it on good authority that there will be a snow storm Fri day, a hail storm Saturday, and a dust storm Sunday. Any week end plans had better be cancelled. After all it is practically (we say practically because the Ingenuity of some of our prominent cam pusites, including Beta Jack Hy land, and' Sigma Chi Grant Thomas, is amazing) it Is prac tically impossible to have a typi cal Nebraska picnic in such weather conditions. FLASH! in honor of his engagement, Theos Thompson has persuaded his dad, (you've probably heard of the dean in one way or another) to per suade the Chancellor to declare a three day holiday beginning Fri day of next week. Sorority houses will have two-thirty nights on Friday and Sunday and on Sat urday, all sorority girls will be provided with keys to the front door. THIS IS the straight dope and the Student Council will please note. The Uni versity has decided that in re sponse to the student strike which has been going on for two days, an all-University party wUl be held at the Hotel Fontenelle in Omaha a month from Sunday. Glenn Miller and his orchestra will play and as part of the floor show, Rosita Royca will present her dove dance with which she fascinated the Kosmet Klub pony chorus (especially Paul Svoboda). Rifmor has it that Beta Orval Hager is taking both D G Nan Talbot and Kappa Mary Ella Ben nett. Other dates include ATO John Mason and 91pha Phi Flor ence Moll; PI Phi Virginia Clem ans and . Beta Alumn Doc Elias; and Sig Alpha Alex Mills and his great love from Osceola. PINHANGINGS of the weekend have an unusual turn to them. If you will notice, the Steuteville twins of Alpha Xi Delta and Mortar Board fame, are now. the proud possessors of two fraternity pins, both from the same man who has had so much trouble telling them apart that he fell in love with both of them. Is it only rumor that Beta Dick deBrown has hung his pin. If it is true, there will be many broken hearts lying around. SIGMA NUS have decided to build an annex to the house so instead of . having their traditional Gold Rush party this year they are going to use the money for the annex. In ad dition they are sponsoring a bridge benefit and tickets will be sold only to university men students. Strike- (Continued from Page 1.) It appeared for about 24 hours that the performance would be called off due to this unforeseen disaster. Members of "Ski Stealers" pony chorus struck! Not for higher wages but because their theatri cal rights and integrity have been blasphemed and hampered by the Impending appearance of a pro fessional strip-teaser. "Beefy hoofera" sK down.

Armand coaxed. Armand pleaded. Armand demanded. But the chorus stood up for their rights as thespians. 'If SHE does a strip-tease we won't do ours, so there, too!" "But, fellows," Mr. Hunter begged, after the 18 pony-chorus members had been on strike for 27 hours, "Miss Lee's performance is art pure art. And she says that if she's to appear at the World Premiere of our show, along with Greta Garbo, Clark Gable, Mortimer Snerd, Charlie McCarthy, Vivien Leigh, and those other stars, she'll do her strip tease or else, she won't come ;it all." An infringement of rights The pony-chorus was not im pressed. They held that even if Miss Gypsy Rose Lee's dance was artistic and would enhance the beauty of the show, their strip tease, they said, was just as artis tic, and would do just aa much to enhance the aesthetic quality f the production. And, besides it was an infringement on their rights her appearance was against the professional ethics of the theatre and, to import Miss Lee for the premiere would be to stifle Young America's initiative and ambition. "NO," the chorus choruaad, "if she strips, we WON'T l" For hours all was darkness on the Temple front, then, after 29 and one-half hours of delibera tions, conferences,' threats, and compromises Armand consented to their wishes. "Okey, men. . .you win. Miss Lee is out. After the way you've stuck to me through thick and thin . . . beer ana aie . whiskey and soda, I CAN'T let you down." , Armand erica and eriea . . . "Please forgive me," he mur mured, as he burst into tears. The chorus, on seeing how gra cious Hunter was, looked up with their 18 pairs of big red eyes, and said, "Gawsh, Armand, we can't do this to you . . . If Miss Lee won't strip, we won't either (Be sides the faculty just sent wora to us that we'd better not strip, or the whole bunch of ua would be expelled flat on our dancing-panties)." There will be mo sirrp-teases at the World Premiere of "Ski Stealers." LINCOLN SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA Final Cuuoeri U Season Monday Eve., S P. M.
