Records Avoid
Future Errors
Says Marburg
"Business records of changes in
policy and procedure are invalu
able in preventing repetition of
mistakes m the future," I'rot. t .
Marburg of the economics depart
ment told members of Economical
Thursday evening in the Union,
Even the young firm can aid
future managers by keeping a
concise record of the success or
failure of various business experi
ments, he said.
To point out the value of keep
ing records Marburg gave as an
example the Scovill Manufactur
ing Co. of Connecticut. The Sco
vill partner who saved records
when they were no longer of di
rect importance to the company
endowed posterity with invaluaMe
material for the study of the eco
nomic development of the last
century.
It is almost impossible to study
such development without access
to business records, so save those
old files, he concluded.

Pictured above are some of the country's greats as caricature
artist Aline Fruhauf sees them.
These are only a few of the drawings of famous stage, screen,
fine arts and political figures now on display in Morrill hall, gallery B.
In the event that you don't recognize the exaggerations of Miss
Fruhauf, then here is the lineup. Reading from left to right are
Charles Weidman, dancer who was once a Lincoln resident; Helen
Hayes, Lawrence Tibbett and Jascha Heifetz.
Probably most unusual part of the Morrill display is the group of
caricatures of the "nine old men" of the United States supreme court.
--Sundriv Journal and Star.
In this view the justices are depicted in considerable detail. Their
facial expressions, shoulder slope, position of face and hands are in
cluded in order to show the personalities of the judges.
Unlike many artists, Miss Fruhauf draws, not from paintings or
photographs, but from actual sittings. Thru such a system she is able
to get typical color and features. She received her training in the
New York school of fine and applied arts.
Born with an aptitude for analyzing character and putting it on
paper, Miss Fruhauf confesses her inability to advise aspiring cari
caturists. Her success proves that she just has "the touch."
Seniors vs. Juniors . . .
ROTC Men Stage Bridge Blasting War
. . . With Fake TNT
The seniors build the bridges,
and the juniors blast them out.
It's not. class rivalry but members
of the university ROTC engineers
unit simulating action under ac
tual war conditions.
With TNT, that is, dud boxes
labeled TNT, juniors lay wires and
go through the entire process of
blasting a site. Work is done
under the assumption that an
enemy force has the site covered.
Most of the "blasting is done
north of the campus on 10th
street.
Building bridges is the main
subject for seniors. Cadets must
study the foundation, determine
the size and parts of the bridge.
Commercial lumber is used.
At last spring's federal inspec
tion, seniors built the bridge in
about two hours, a very good
time, according to Major Lobbell,
director of the engineers.
The engineers' program calls for
pytrnsivp neriods of training: in
the field where student cadets ac
tually carry out what they learn
in'the class room. After the first
year, more time is spent actually
on the field than in the classroom.
After one year of fundamentals,
students spend their time making
maps and working with rigging.
The engineers unit possesses a
lot of valuable map making ma
terial, and the work is done along
official army rules.
Huge weights are lifted in the
rigging instruction which is high
lighted by work with a gin pole,
a large lifting device. A lot of
this kind of work is practicable
for heavy loading on a farm, Ma
jor Lobdell said.
UN's military engineers can be
found these days at Pioneer park
where they are working out field
problems, for engineers must serve
as infantrymen in some emergencies.

Hear Jay McShann's two disks,
Swing niatism" and "Confessin'
The Blues" and you'll understand
whv they are best sellers on the
Grill music box. These waxings
have color plus; dig the A side
oh!, those mournful saxes, that
cutting brass, and that relaxed,
easy darky rhythm: Plenty ot cirive
there! After the intro unison saxes
take that solid jump tempo. Jay's
piano shines so few notes, but so
much punch.
We think the McShann crew is
on the downbeat and headed
toward big things. For a real kick
watch that rhythm section, espe
fiuliv that bov who knocks him
self out of this world on his bass
fwi.H.v He'll nrobablv take you
right along with him. He and the
rest of the crew put on a great
show- solid can't describe it. And
you'll like those long sessions on

agree can play with any of them,
too.
Tho ' ronfessin' " disk is O. K
also, with fine pianistics and a
typical blues vocal that U put you
in thar old mournful mood. These
McShann groovings are only a
nvoinHo to what's to come - for this
band is driving and jiving to the
top. Watch them:
