DAILY NEBRASKAN
New year-new style
Yesterday, the first edition of new Awgwan Flash went on sale. Reorgan
ized, style changed entirely, manned by a new editorial staff, advised by Sig
ma Delta Chi, the "baby" has been delivered after a summer and five weeks
of planning, worrying, and hard work.
Comments gathered from students who bought copies vary from lavish
praise to utter disappointment. When the magazine has made the rounds, the
general opinion will be pretty plain and the editors and managers of the new
magazine will know the work they have done has been either good or bad.
From the standpoint of something new, something different, the Flash is a
complete success. Like many things many of us do, the f irt attempt falls short
of what we would like to have done. The Awgwan Flash falls short of what ita
editors and managers would liked to have done.
But the magazine is new. It is not to be judged entirely upon its first ap
pearance. There are nine more issues left during the school year, and some-

Dance as dance can.
Dance at the Union that eve
ning gave Huskers a new outlook
on social life. Cutting is the thing
there. And it is something strange
for us to take a date to the dance
and not see her again that eve
ning. Highlight of the dance was
the hour rug cutting session star
ring two of Nebraska's first string
football men who's solos might
even top their performance on the
gridiron.
The train dragged out or tne
station at midnight after everyone
dragged out to the train.
It was a 24 hour party and peo
ple were tired. The last "Stand''
made their last stand about z:$u
a. m. when they noarsea out tne
words of "There Is No Place Like
Nebraska" accompanied by ut-
terings that resembled the music
to same song. Then by popular
request they reverted from their
attempt at "spirit" and like al
most everyone else, went to sleep
in a heap in the first empty seat.
A short distance out of Law
rence, a stowaway crawled up the
aisle, asked which way the con
ductor went, chuckled when he
found out that he and the train
men were headed in different di
rections, then crawled up on the
baggage rack to hide. The con
ductor came back. As he was pass
ing the stowaway coughed. The
conductor shined his light up on
the baggage rack, remarked that
the suitcase up there needed some
cough medicine, and then walked
on.
Night life.
Along the aisle about 4 a. m.,
crept a porter, dark as the train
itself, selling what he called
"scrumptious samwitches." He
stopped by a seat which held a
body and said to that body, "Sam
witch, son." The body turned over,
lit a match so it could see in the
dark and asked, "What kind?"
"Ham, sir, and just look at dat
thick slice o meat" The body
looked at it, said, "Yah, I know,
let a vetenarian go to work on it
for ten minutes and it would get
up and walk." The body turned
over and went dead again. The
porter crept on.
It's a long way to Tipperary.
And it's Just about as far to Law
rence. Thank the Greek gods that
a migration doesn't happen every
weekend. We are no longer Jeal
ous of those birds who go south
every winter.

Dr. A. W. Rosenlof, registrar,

- - Bidloihv
that the second issue wiu dc
picture magazine is no joke and
raphy is a difficult task. Arrangements to piease me eyu are uuuvui. w aiho,
Whether copy should be used under pictures is a tough question to answer.
The reaction to its use and to its absence is the only way to measure the popu
larity of either style. . .and so the Awgwan editor included both styles, hoping
that the reaction would aid in establishing a policy and a future style.
This university is large enough to support a good humor or picture mag
azine. We think the revamped Awgwan Flash, despite obvious temporary weak
points, is worth considering and worth buying. Its editors, managers, and those
members of Sigma Delta Chi, men's professional journalism honorary, who:
have worked long and hard on the reorganization have congratulations in store
for them... not yet, but after the next edition. .
November's magazine should rank with the best college magazines in the
country. The steepest hill is behind and the road ahead should be smooth. Lct'g
hope the drivers of the automobile don't fall asleep at the wheel.
