More jewelry
has changed hands, and this time
it's the high school ring of Phi
Delt Bill Ottman. None other
than Nebraska's AU-American,
Bettie Cox, is now wearing the
memento, but on her right hand,
kiddies don't jump the gun!
Chicago
is the goal this week-end for one
carload of people. ZBT Bob Cohen
is off to see Selnia Hill, and with
him will go Phi Gam Phil Grant
and Pi Phi Jean Craig, as well as
Pi Phi Lou Ide. -
Hawaiian leis
are the bids for the annual Ha
waiian party of the Alpha Sigs.
The big affair is to be held to
night, and among the couples
present will be Grant Howard
and Joan Green, Chi O; Bob Aid
rich and Kappa Jean Minnich, and
John Gayer with Alpha Phi Dor
othy Griswold.
Beta bigshot
John Weingarten came skipping
into the office yesterday with a
lovely purple shiner. Hoping to
bribe ye society (?) editor he
promised to trade a good scoop
item for not mentioning the afore
said condition of his eye. Bluff
now is called, however, when the
so-called "scoop" was checked
it happened five months-ago, and
everyone knows it.
Best angle of the whole deal,
however, is the cause of the Bhiner.
John forgot to duck when one of
the lovelier ladies on the campus
swung a playful right all in fun.
Spring and graduation
is presenting quite a problem to
ATO Ralph Worden. Seems he
can't decide between the army,
med school, and a very cute mem
ber of Montgomery Ward's per
sonnel. Ag campus
will be the scene of the b
spring party this Saturday night.
Feature of the whole deal is the
announcement that the ag cafe
teria will be open for refreshment
during the evening, saving the
kiddies the bother of dashing clear
down town.
Tomorrow night
will be the occasion for the Sig
Alph Bowery Ball, and the Beta
hospital party thrown by the
pledges. At the latter affair By
ron will pretend he's Prince and
carry the liquid succor usually ef
fected by merciful St. .Bernard.
The Sammy pledges are borrow-

show, "Torso del Torro," will b3
held Monday and Tuesday in the
Temple at 7:30 p. m. All students,

good speaking parts. Kosmet Klub
has announced that all those who
are addk-ted to stage fright may
try out for the part of the bull. I
There will be a Kosmet Klub

To satiate readers .
Army librarian tackles supply
job; asks book contributions
ing the comic strip motif for their
houseparty for the actives.
Another engagement
is that of Sigma Kappa Jewel
Tinker and Beta Sig Dick Lund
gren. Although they've gone to
gether steadily, this announcement
comes as a surprise even to Dick's
suspicious brothers.
Another ATO
is Jim Critchfield, of Lincoln.
Other news from the Tau house
concerns the big conclave to be
held in Missouri next week. Bob
Schleh, Bob Norton, Tom Hood,
and Johnny Mason are among
those going, and after looking
over the cream of the Stephens'
Susies here in Lincoln, they ex
pect a big time in Columbia and
Kansas City.
OMAHA, Neb., Mar. 21.-Keeping
up with the ravenous reading
habits of the thousands of soldiers
in camps, forts, and stations of
the 7th Corps Area has fallen to
Miss Sibyl Tubbs, who is buying
books in lots of 5,000.
As corps area librarian, Miss
Tubbs supervises her assistants
who are located on the various
posts of the nine states with which
she is concerned. She is authorized
to spend $6,400 for each unit of
5,000 books, and there is supposed
to be one unit to every iu.wu men.
This means the big stations like
Ft. Leonard Wood, Mo., and Camp
Joseph T. Robinson, Ark., will
have three units, and might have
more if needed.
Books are purchased with the
lively temperament of the men in
mind, and cover a wide range of
subjects, educational, entertain
ing, and adventurous.
To date, many civilians, who
have bookshelves loaded with
books which have already been
read, and organizations which col
lect reading materials, have added
to the government fund.
