Student life at Nebraska is
not all classroom and books. A
wide variety of activities, social
affairs and recreation is offered
on the campus for all students.
While participation in some may
be limited, most are open to all
students. If you are interested
in extra curricular activity, you
will probably contact members
of these groups before long.

"With cooperation of students,
both drivers and pedestrians, we
can maintain our splendid record
of no fatalities or serious acci
dents on this campus," said Kgt.
Regler, campus cop for 14 years.
Because most students are Lin
coln residents nine months of the
year, It is necessary that they
comply with city traffic regula
tions. If Lincoln's 161 deathless
day period Is to be extended, It
must be remembered that the
fedestrian has the right of way;
hat 18 miics per hour is the speed
limit on Btate property; and that
Btop signs are to be obeyed.
Thumbing rides is strictly against
traffic ordinances.
