I I Sunday, September 22, 1940 DAILY NEBRASKAN On. JhsL SidsL hy lUth Aid rich' Chancellor Boucher and other university officials advise students to go ahead and plan their edu cation without regard to effect of the national defense program. Just relax and take it easy, but don't lone the address of the near est recruiting office. Wendell Willkie had to lay off for a couple of days on account of losing his voice. We can be thankful that the only thing that can make an American politician pipe down is laryngitis. Winston Churchill warns the House of Commons that England must expect an invasion. Those little black things in the sky over London are ducks flying south for the winter. The nar.is are distributing pamphlets vilifying the Poles and telling Germans that they belong to a "master race." Funny that superior hurmn beings must keep reminding each other of their su periority. Selective service officials de clare that the whole draft busi ness will he kept open on a "fish bowl" policy. We are happy to see the future draftees referred to as goldfish and not suckers. Personally we think Roosevelt is pulling the smartest trick of the whole campaign in his "see no politics, hear no politics, Epeak no politics' behavior. There is nothing so awe-inspiring to the ordinary citizen as a politician with nothing to say. Congress is going to arrange things so that men drafted for de tent? won't have to pay all their debts. When you go into the army you give up some of your i-espon-sibilities along with all of your freedom. Putting on eleven shows a day, Rnsita Royee, the dove dancer tes tified, made her doves nervous. Think of what it must have done to the customers. Army officials say it's asy to gift men to enlist in the flying oorps but hard to secure just plain buck privates. Being shot on the grcund ia alwavs so dreadfully dull. Henry Wallace say a vote or the republicans is a vote for Hit ler and Wendell Willkie declares Roosevelt is carving a path for dictatorship. Nothing left to do but vote for an old-fashioned, sub stantial citizen like Earl Browder. ''flflW'nHH:::':''::':'''''' P.

This is done by having paintings done here in the building so that every person vis iting the Union can see the art ists at work." Thus spoke Kenneth Van Sant, managing director of the build ing, in explaining the purposes be hind the art program being spon sored by the Union this year. The statement also answered the queries of many people about the mural done last year in the lounge, which has now been taken down. The mural had never been intended as a permanent decora tion of the building, Van Sant de clared. "Neither is it the intention of the directors to have the paint ings which now decorate the halls remain here too long," he said. "They are to be changed every month." The selections will be made by the art department, which will each month send pictures to the building management. Pictures painted by members of the faculty and by noted artists will likewise be exhibited so that students will be able to get acquainted with the work of superiors. There will also be traveling exhibits shown with the cooperation of the photo club and other organizations. Marriage is the best prescription for students worried by conscription By Art Rivin To reflect the sentiments of the students of UN, the Nebraskan sends out among you at regular intervals, an inquiring reporter. In this case instead of being an inquiring reporter I've become a perspiring reporter. My deplorable condition is not due to the warm weather but well, you'll understand when you read the question I've been asking. This is it. If you had intention matrimonial, but you knew that even by getting married you (or your husband if you are a female ) could not avoid conscription, would you still take the step? All of which may, at first glance, sound like a lot of nonsensical nothing but which is in reality a definitely pertinent question don't you think Anyway those interviewed did. Witness these profound responses. Marsa Lee Civin, arts freshman and a Sigma Delta Tau, answered. "I certainly would if I loved him and by the way, if anyone is in terested." Incidentally lads, Marsa is blonde. "I'm a staunch bachelor and I'll always remain a staunch bachelor. Shux, I'd rather go to camp than get married." This indignant out burst came from Ed Tollefson, Phi Gam, bizad '4t. I BfflWW WW HI,'., J : ( ' A' V" ) Linroln Sunday Journal uid Star. Kenneth Van Sant. . . . sponsors art interest. 'How to study' is Council topic Freshman Council students . on the ag campus will attend a meet ing sponsoi-ed by' the YMCA and YWCA organizations Tuesday eve ning, Sept. 24 at 7:00 p. m. in the Agriculture Hall. The guest speaker is Dr. T. H. Gooding, Professor of Agronomy. His topic for discussion will be "How to Study." The program is one of interest and is expected to draw a large crowd. A Mr. Fox whose first name is not for publication put the matter pointedly when he replied, "You're darn right! Why, let somebody else marry her? She wouldn't be standing still while I'm at camp not my girl." The mysterious Mr. Fox might be the famous "n'ya n'ya" fox that everyone has been trying to apprehend. I do know that he is a journalism frosh and is not afflicted. Of stern stuff is Jack Linen who promptly responded, "If I had a good position when I left so that I'd be fairly secure after my re turn from camp, I'd marry the girl." This with much gusto and determination. Jack is an arts frosh. Usee Hay iHke the allitera tion?), a freshman barb with teaching aspirations, snappc-d back in something like jerry Cologna style, simply but logically, "Yes, why not?" Pre-med '42 Walter Harris, after thinking for a minute, came forth with this sage answer. "No, if the U.S. should go to war, it's much easier to lose a boy friend than a husband." And that, my friends, ia consideration. Pharmacy college claims Harold Boone, Phi Sigma Kappa, '43. But big brother claims Harold's fem inine friends.

Many have wondered why the room had not been decorated be fore, and among those who were wondering was the managing dirt-dor of the building, Kenneth Van Sant. Must be perfect. This mural will have to be noth ing less than perfect, and for that reason it must be done, over and over again, the director explained. The work will extend itself over the span of five months or more to assure the success of the project. It will not be started directly in the music room but will be ex perimented on in the art studios of the university. Then the stu dents will bring their tools to the Union to Btart their work on the wall itself. This is the first time that a mural will be painted di rectly on the wall. If this plan proves to be suc cessful it will be repeated next year on a wider scope in the stu dent lounge. The theme of this mural will be the activity of the students on the campus. Boone says, "Grab her quick. All the girls I've been interested in my big brother has snatched away fro.n me." That is why I always say, "Lucky in tobacco auctioneer ing, unlucky in love." or some thing. In order that I may close this historical bit of investigation in a serene and touching manner, I'll quote Milton Rothenberger, bizad '42, S.A.E. Milt replied in a voice that nearly broke my heart, "I'd marry, love's more important than anything." That's all except this. If you have any burning theories that you'd like to let the world know about, don't hesitate to contact the Nebraskan. For we firmly be lieve that the public airing of this sort of pressing problem is the very 'essence of democracy. And the Daily will be doing the forces of freedom a great favor.
