KNIGHT AND DAT.

you .u slrunne acquaintances met by the
w.-.t.r la fnlnt whom he refers to as
KnlRlils of (he bquars Table. Our tale
takes up from the point where he had
Just joined the phlegmatic fellow at
tuelr tuLle In noggin of ale.
I was seated beside Sir Gawain
Willi fluids flowing when a chance
to glance upon a fellow who
soemcd to be an advance of a
forthcoming trance. He was sit
ting at the end of the table down
ing one after another and laughing
to himself. Every so often he would
raise a hand in protest. W ith cur
iousity winning me over, I got up
and moved to a chair beside the
chap. I queried, "What are you.
Doing?" "I'm telling myself
Jokes," came the reply. "But why
the hand in the air?" I asked.
"Yea, knave, that is to stop me
when I have heard them before."
I could see his noggin was
empty so I asked, "Won't you join
me in a noggin of ale?" He
nodded and answered, "Ye, verily,
you got in first!" He laughed and
shook hands with himself. He
hadn't heard that one, he told me,
until he told it to himself.
I had never quite encountered
a fellow quite like him. He wore
a pair of green coveralls, polaroid
glasses, and a bow tie with legs
to match.
He sipped the foam away and
turned to me. "Drowning sor
rows?" he put the query.
I have so few sorrows that I
don't like to drown them," I re
plied. "However, I do taken them
out occasionally and give them a
good swimming lesson."
"And what stroke to they use?'.
"The Tarzan Crawl, but it's not
working out well. They are be
ginning to stand on my liver and
beat their chests at the same time
bellowing out the war cry to the
ap;s. It's embarrassing. Last
nijht, six apes followed me home."
He became interested. "Ilmmm,
curious that we should be af-
ficted somewhat the same. But my
woes are woeful. In brevity, my
pancreas glands have revolted at
my choice of beverages and they
say some of the most embarrassing

'Double Door9 opens tonight
By Donald Bower.
The mood will be heavy when
the curtain rises tonight on the
second University Theater produc
tion, "Double Door." The play,
written by Elizabeth McFadden, is
a mystery melodrama of the
"thrill-a-minute" variety.
Victoria Van Bret is the central
figure, the scene being the Van
Bret mansion on Fifth avenue, a
large and gloomy place, with Vic
toria's dictatorial nature prevail
ing even when the dictator her
self is absent
things as I go to take a drink.
Listen."
He opened his mouth and as the
noggin approached it a yoice down
inside of him yelled.
"My Gawd, Mabel, close the
windows! He's at it again!"
"There you see," he cried and
then he was desolute. "The pests,"
he pouted.
At that moment a courier
dashed in with an assignment for
the knights. We knew he was a
courier because he couried. Sir
Lancelot read the missle, rose and
announced. "Hear ye the message
sir knights. We leave for the North
Pole in the morn."
Don't fail to read the next thril
ling installment describing why
Arctic circles formed under the
knights' eyes. But then who
wouldn't have circles under their
eyes where the nights are six
weeks long?

The play does not purport to be
a problem play or true serious
drama but is "entertainment of a
thrilling and unique nature," says
Armand Hunter, play director.
Costumes, set and properties
have been selected to actually de
pict the period of 1910, in which
the play takes place.
The set is an experiment in that
it is the first time a stage set
of solid wood has been used on
the Nebraska campus. The idea is
to give weight and oppressiveness
to the setting.

Ray Murray, barb leader, said
In regard to the council's action
that the barb organization would
appeal to the council for recon
sideration of the committee's rul
ing because of insufficient evi
dence. A summary of the unofficial
