Frat men to start rushing
around as cards come out
The weekend promises to be cut
In half because fraternity rush
cards go out and all the boys will
be rushing hither and yon trying
to make the best impression. Even
bo, big things have been planned,
and picnics are taking the title
page. Forgetting about the well
known midnight oil, the ATO'a are
planning a Sunday picnic, Alpha
Chi's invite you to a Saturday
house party, SAE's will go to a
closed spring party on the same
night, Duke Ellington at the Turn
pike will hold the spotlight Fri
day, along with the AGR's house
party.
KEEPING PACE
with events of the week end will
be Ellington-goers. Marj Jones,
Theta, will be seen with Leon
Hines, Kappa Sig; Dorothy Swish
er, Theta, will trip along with
Bob McCampbell, Delt, and Dor
othy Wind, Alpha Chi, is planning
a busy evening with Bob Windle,
ATO.
ON PAROLE
from studies are the ATO's who
will picnic complete with chaper
ons at Nebraska's summer cam
pus, that corner of Nebraska near
Louisville. We aren't surprised
when we hear that John Mason is
taking Pi Phi Virginia Clemans,
or that Harold Larman will be
seen there with Marion Patton, Al
pha Phi. Other dates are Ed Cal
houn with Jean Cullinan, Kappa;
Pat Patterson, Delta Gamma, with
Ray Rolland; Dorothy Maxwell
with Ken Federly; Bob Schleh with
Jean Christie, Alpha Phi; Bob
Jungman and Virginia Smith,
Theta.
TOO BAD
but we we hear a certain Sigma
Chi's pin is no longer being worn
by Louise Lemon. On the brighter
side, though, we hear of the
steady deal between Barbara
Hodgman, Alpha Phi, and Jack
Cates, Delt.
SWINGING ALONG
with the rest of the guys and gals
will be the Alpha Chi's and their
dates tomorrow night at a house
party. Imitating the popular Corn
Crib, they will serve refreshments
from a "College Bar." Among
those present will be Lillian Wind
with Bob Alberty; Jane Jordon
and Johnny Dean, Sigma Nu;
Martha Anne Reed with Bob Ford,
Sigma Nu. Sigma Chi's Tommy
Horn and Don Anderson will be
escorting Polly Jo Taylor and
Elaine Jordon. Faye Irwin will be
with Clint Jurgensen, Sig Ep, and
Kathryn Park with Allen Zik
mund. IN CONTRAST
with the informality of picnics and
house parties will be the Sig Alph
dinner dance tomorrow night at
the University club. Seen dining
and dancing will be Louis Seybold
and Theta Aline Hosman, Tom
Uren and Mickey Morrow, Kappa
Rita Alger, former Pi Phi now of
Omaha, with Bill Schock, and
Fran Cloidt, Pi Phi, with Murray
Crouse. John Guthrie and Pat
Reitz, Delta Gamma, are also on
the list.
IN COMMEMORATION
of their fine efforts in bringing
the dream of a new ZBT house to
reality, members of the board of
trustees were presented a plaque
by the active chapter.
Celebating its completeion, the
ZBT's will have an open house
from 2 to 5 p. m. Saturday, so
that the campus can see their new
home. That night they will enter
tain with a house party. Bids are
required for this party.
I'M SORRY FOR MYSELF
says Kappa Marj Runyan, since
Phi Delt Gus Elam sprained his
ankle. He's been going around on
crutches for a few days, but re
ports are that he threw the crutch
away and happier days are ahead.
SOMETHING NEW
AND DIFFERENT
but Phi Delt Jim Stuart is going
to Plattsmouth to escort Helen
Catherine Davis, DG of last year,
to the high school Junior-Senior
prom. He'll probably come back
humming "School Days."
ALL THE KING'S
HORSES
and all the king's men can't get
the Theta waiters' money back.
They started a breakage fund
every time one of them broke a
glass or a dish, he paid in 40
cents. The catch was that some
of the Thetas went in the kitchen
for a midnight snack and found
the money. . .about $3.60. The
waiters have a plan, though to get
it back, so Thetas, beware!
IMPROMPTU BUT NICE
was the informal gathering of
Phi Delts at Antelope park Thurs
day afternoon. Dick Herman,
Cliff Meier, Bill Fox, Brandy
Backlund and Bob Moody took
Theta Mary Adelaide Hansen and
Pi Phi Lou Ide with them for
company, and tripped out to the
park in "Fanny," the car with no
hood and no windows. But in spite
of said handicaps a "good time
was had by all."
NEW OFFICERS
at the ZBT house are Ernest Win
troub, president; Lawrence Gaven
man, vice-president; Leonard
Goldstein, treasurer; Ed Witten
berg, secretary; Joe Kirshenbaum,
historian.
Hertzler-

stated several cases in history
which paralleled his views.
Analyzing these cases, Hertzler
reveals the stages of dictatorship,
enumerating the "unsettling fac
tors in operation," His factors
are: "(1) economic weakness and
dislocation, in the form of depres
sion . . . impaired standards of
living, frightened capitalists and
business men hesitant to under
take new enterprises or to con
tinue with the old; (2) interna
tional complications, foreign war
. . . or the harrowing state of a
postwar period; (3) revolution or
civil war, or the threat of either
. i . and the shaky condition of
the ruling classes; (4) the break
down or serious impairment of po
litical institutions ... the loss of
confidence in the existing govern
mental agencies; and (5) personal
disorganization, psychological up
heaval, moral breakdown, and
low morale of considerable num
bers of the people.
"The close relationship between
revolution and dictatorship should
be noted particularly," Dr. Hertz
ler warned as he cited cases in

music at the university, and who

Not" as being able to sing loud

on the Extension Service's weekly

network tomorrow afternoon.
Aagaard will also tell why he

stage, he sang in most major cities
in the United States.
Youthful farmers.
In addition, a group of three

will include Esther and Lyle Blin

George Round, extension editor

point. Recalling the dictatorships
of Cromwell, Napoleon Bonaparte,
and others, he showed that "the
hope and confidence which pre
ceded and accompanied the insur
rected evaporated."
Presupposes crisis.
Stating that "dictatorship prac
tically presupposes a condition of
crisis and emergency prior to its
establishment," the sociologist
contended that "without crisis the

dictatorship would be neither pos
sible or necessary."
Delving Into history, Dr. Hert
ler pointed out the demand by the
people for deliverance, bringing
his case up to date by citing that
"Abel's German caae histories,
covering the period from the end .
of the war to the time when Hit
ler came into power, reveal the
longing of the people for a strong
man to unify their divided and
chaotic sentiment and action.
Concluding this phase, he said,
that "in times of social disorgani
zation . . . political dictatorship is
a form of coercive accommoda
tion in which a reign of concen
trated power Is established which
inflicts its control upon the whole
population. The prospective de
liverer is often accepted on his
own terms.
"The crisis situation does not
automatically produce a dictator
ship," the sociologist affirmed,
stating that dictatorships are
caused as much "by the tactics
of the would-be dictator and his
clique or party as by the crisis
conditions. It is quite conceivable
in many cases," he prophesied,
"notably in the case of Russia,
Italy, and Germany . . . that half
the emergency would have dis
appeared if the would-be dictator
had commanded his shrieking fol
lowers to cease their nefarious
activities."
