THE DAILY NEBRASJCAN
Sociaty ...
Today is family day among
fraternities and sororities
Sunday, May 19, 1940
By Mary Jean McCarthy.
Today seems to be a good 'old
fashioned' family day among some
fraternities and aororitiea whan
they put aside other activities to
entertain those 'nearest and dear
est' to them. It has been quite a
weekend too, and there will be
many alarm clocks ignored in the
morning probably. Another thing
which is seemingly interesting all
campuskes is the problem of
'what-to-do this summer.' Many
have already started looking for
something to do to while away the
hot summer days.
WHOOPS-I-DOO
those two fun-loving Gamma's
Phi's, Maryellen Robinson and
Ruth Coordes, are at it again. It
seems as tho they created a small
riot, and incidentally won a bet, at
a down-town store by riding the
up-going escalator down and the

came, so back went the pin so that
Chuck could hand-it-down to fra

'TIS RUMORED
that Phi Delt 3ud Boyden has a
very beauteous picture of Theta
twin Marion Jones in his room.
Of course As of rumors 'fall
through' or ire just plain 'thrown
out' so .
AND STILL
people continue to decide to go
steady. The newest in the line
are a few who really haven't ad
mitted the occurrence but their
friends say it's the real thing. Tri

THREE YOUNG MEN OKOBOJI BOUND
had better watch their step, for
after the wedding of Sigma Chi
Bob McClurg and Jane Williams
of Omaha all the young maidens
gathered round to catch the
'bride's bouquet.' Thru the air it
came right into the outstretched
arms of three young ladles. Kap

maid of honor one can never tell
just who will follow out the old
tradition -"the one who catches,

FAMILIES
will be the outstanding 'honor
guests' at many Greek houses to
day when the Betas observe Sis
ter's Day. treating all the Sis's
to dinner. At the Kappa house the
girls will participate in what is
usually a hilarious time with their
dads who always make any
party mighty successful. The Phi
Delts will honor sisters and
daughters and we might add
these boys will really be kept
quite busy or maybe we should
say a bit 'jipped' on the food.
ONE LITTLE PIN
is certainly being tossed around
among four people these lays. It
is a tiny, helpless Beta pin, for-
yesterday were DGs Pat Rietz and
Polly Windle with Sig Alphs John
Guthrie and Tom Shaffer. Sorta
cold for that kind of a place but
'the lake 'is always fun.

all other rumors.
N clubbers
to hold picnic
this afternoon
Annual "N" club picnic is
scheduled for today in the coli
seum, with everything from soft
ball to swimming on the program.
A picnic-dinner will be served at
noon, and fterwards, the coaches
and seniors play the juniors and
sophomores in what promises to
be, as usual, a rollicking ball
game.
The picnics have been held in
Ashland in the past, but many of
the athletes didn't show up, be
cause it was so far. To quote
club prexy Don "Houdini" Fitz,
"anyway, it's too close to Greenwood."
Dormitories hold
recognition tea
A freshman recognition tea for
high scholarship and activity
points received during the year
will be given by Raymond and
Love halls from 4 to 5 p. m.
today.
Twenty girls will be honored at
this time. The one with the high
est scholarship and the one with
the highest number of activity
points will receive a special award
of merit. Girls chosen on their
interest and ability to do the work
will be appointed as freshmen ad
visors for next year.

ever, purchase the latter ticket
without having purchased the for
mer. Separate books.
Indiana U does not have a com
pulsory ticket system. They do
not issue to students general ac
tivity tickets, but offer season
books for the separate activities.
The athletic books cost $7, theater
books $2, and lecture series books
$3. The university formerly had a
general activity fee, but it was
dispensed with in order to make
for more income for activities.
Iowa U likewise does not have a
general activity system. Season
tickets arc issued for the various
activities.
None at Michigan.
Michigan U does not have a
sUnlent activity ticket system, but
tuition fees cover admission to ath
letic events. For admission to these
events the student has only to
show his identification card. How
ever, the tuition fee does not in
clude admission to other activities.
$16.50 a year.
Northwestern has a compulsory
activity card that costs $16.50 per
year. This ticket covers admis
sion to all sports events, gym priv
ileges, use of tennis courts, stu
dent lockers, use of the Student
Union, and subscription to the col
lege daily.
Minnesota does not offer general
activity books, but issues season
athletic books costing $7.50. These
books are not compulsory. Other
activities are handled similarly.
The University of Illinois not
having a general activity ticket
system, handles each activity sepa
rately. Reserved Seats.
Purdue has a compulsory ticket
system. The activity fee is $9 per
semester. It covers athletic games
(allowing students reserved seats), i
lectures and convocations, the Stu-1
dent Union, and the health service.
All student activities at the Unl. '
of California are controlled by a
student organization, which offers
general activity tickets. These
tickets offers students a year's
subscription to the campus daily,
and a free or greatly reduced ad
mission to athletic events. Al
though students are not required
to buy ac tivity tickets, they cannot
take part in activities, or vote in
campus elections unless they have
bought tickets. Therefore most
students buy them.
Sky high.
Stanford offers its students ac
tivity cards which cost $15 per
quarter. This ticket does not cover
all admission costs for athletic con
tests, but students with tickets are
offered reduced prices. The tick
ets also entitles a student to the
campus daily newspaper.
At the University of Washing
ton (Seattle), student activity
tickets are compulsory. The tick
ets cost $10, and admit students to
all athletic events. It also includes

system has been attacked various
times, a court decision has made it
compulsory.
The University of Texas offers
an optional ticket to students for
$10.50. Inis admits students to all
athletic event, and drama produc
tions, and subscription to the daily
newspaper and the monthly humor
magazine. Tart of the ticket fees

advantage of the ticket.
Dr. Scott writes . . .

stressed in that the basketball
schedule could not contain more
than 18 games. Previously, the di
rectors had reaffirmed the con
ference rule which prohibited cage
teams from playing on "neutral
floors."
No other tourneys.
The above step prevents Big
Six quintets from playing in tour
naments as did Kansas during the
1939 Christmas holidays at Tope
ka, Kas., with Washburn college
as host a "neutral school."
Also approved was the sugges
tion of the business managers that
passes to all athletic contests be
limited to officials needed to con
duct events and members of the
working press. And, if complimen
tary tickets are issued, the home
team must pay the visitors the full
share of the tickets' vaiue.

According to the article the re

accepted as satisfactorily repre

were not strictly representative of
Nebraska schools.
Results of three groups.
Included were schools with high,

comprised a majority of schools
in which turnover occurred in
1938-39; the results for the three
groups were similar.

ally the problem of turnovera-8
among puonc mgn scnooi teachers
of Nebraska is complicated by the
fact that turnover serves to de-.
crease salary expenditures.
The size of the school and the
percentage of turnover due to
salary reasons, according to the
survey, tended to be positively
related.
'Nebraska has high rate.'
Other facts revealed in the ar
ticle are that "a high rate of turn
over for 1938-39 was characteris
tic of 6-year, 4-year, and senior
public high schools in Nebraska.
"The salary factor was decid
edly the most important cause of
turnover in the 270 co-operating
schools considered as a whole and
as three separate groups."
