Studv of Roman
Law Valuable
"Knowledge of Roman law is a
necessity for a thorough under
standing of American law," ac
cording to Dr. Ginsburg, of the
Classics Department, who spoke
to the Young Advocates Tuesday.
Dr. Ginsburg, an authority on
Roman law, asserted that altho
our legal system is not of the Ro
"man type, many of its basic fun
damentals', especially in equity
law, are derived from the Roman
law. In line with this, Dr. Gins
burg suggested that a course in
Roman law be required for all Ne
braska law students, as it is at
Columbia university.

Behind this publication are some
500 photographic plates of genuine

manuscripts British scholars have
asked Dr. Lewis to preserve his
photographic plates-believed to
be the only duplication of the Eng

About half the original Shake

When war clouds gathered, Brit

"I have received direct infor

8ys, "that some of those Vaults
have been penetrated by bombs.
My photographic plates some day
may be the only available source
for reproduction of the docu

by Dr. Lewi is Shakespeare's
deathbed letter, on which the
handwriting gicw less and less
legible until the signature was a
mere scribble.

How Much Does Papa Pay:
Reporter Queries Students
By Lloydene Kershaw.
Actually, just now much drain
is there on papas purse to send
Susie or Junior to college for a
year? In a cross-section of stu
dents, both affiliated and unaf
filiated, we tried to answer this
pertinent and timely question. The
results were truly amazing, re
vealing that there is just as much
difference in the living expenses
of the students at Nebraska as in
the homes from which they come.
But let's get down to facts and
statictics: Consider the coeds and
what it costs them (or papa to be
more accurate) to keep beautiful.
If the varying amounts spent are
any indication of how pulchritudi
nous or socially successful a gal
is, some of the lassies with limited
means just don't stand a chance.
The sum spent for clothes by
Nebraska coeds interviewed, to be
specific, varies from an estimated
$75 per year to $575. It seems up
on a little closer investigation,
however, that the average amount
is between 175 and 225 dollars.
$36 for Cosmetics.
Still considering the women,
items which varied considerably
among the ten interviewed were
cosmetics, and amusement. The
high amount spent for cosmetics
was $36 for the school year while
one girl interviewed declared that
she spends only $2 a year for
them. Interesting to note is the
fact that the turns spent by Ne
braska women in beauty shops is
negligible, as most of them wash
and fix their own hair. According
to national surveys this is not true
of women over the nation. For

amusement, too, the amounts j
spent varied considerably, ranging
from a low of $2 a month to a
high of $20.
Only one of the ten women con
tacted owned a car, which costs
her approximately $50 to main
tain and operate from September
to June. On the whole, sorority
girls spend more than unaffiliated
girls, particularly for clothes and
amusement. Of the ten girls ques
tioned, six smoked and four were
non-smokers. The average girl
smoker spends, it would seem,
from $28 to $35 for cigarcts dur
ing the school year. The amount
spent for board and room among
girls who do not live at home
varies from $25 (unaffiliated) to
$16 ( affiliated . This is somewhat
misleading, tho. because the $46
includes sorority dues and ex
penses as well.
Men Less Clothes Conscious.
The most striking difference be
tween expenditures by the. men
and women was in the amounts
spent for clothes. The moat spent
for clothes by any fellow inter
viewed was $150 with the major
ity spending from $75 to a $100;
the lowest amount spent was $50.
Compare that with the figures
for the gals! Every girl but one
spent $100 or more (four of the
ten spent more than $300) where
as only four of the mens' clothes
expenses exceeded $100. Do you
suppose it 'Is the "cords" that
make the difference?
Room and board was approxi
mately the same for both sexes,
as were tuition, books, and clean
ing bills. Books averaged $20 for
the year and tuition about $100.

will then be squad meetings, then

the teams will make th trips ae-

Exact statement of the question
plus some clarification material
wa. released at the meeting. The
proposition is "Resolved that the
federal government should regu
late by law all labor unions in the
United States.
Tho following definitions are
an intrinsic part of the proposition :
"It shall be understood that the
word regulate shall mean, at least:
1. requiring incorporation of all
unions; 2. fixing responsibility for
tho acts of unions and the acts
of their members during strikes
and picketing; and 3. regulating
the use of their funds, requiring
them to make official accounting
to their membership for all Income
and expenditures and to return to
their members all excess at the
end of each fiscal year."

A special case, among those in
terviewed is the photographic
fiend who confessed that he spent
$800 for cameras and equipment
last year, but stated that he was
going to keep it within $200 this
year. Incidentally, he spends $18
a year for camera insurance but
doesn't have life insurance!
Naturally men spend a great
deal more for amusement than
women, but the amounts spent by
the individual fellows showed quite
a bit of variation. One fellow who
works nights and has practically
no dates estimated the amount he
spends for amusement at $2 a
month, while at the other end of
the scale was the fellow who
spends $200 in nine months, which
is ten times as much! The aver
age seemed to be approximately
$12 per month.
Of the 20 students, ten had
some earnings of their own to
ease the financial strain on their
families seven of the ten men
and three of the women. The aver
age amount earned was between
20 and 25 dollars per month, altho
three (one woman and two men)
earned between $32 and $35.
Papa Who Pays.
Finally, the highest amount
spent for the whole year waa by
an affiliated girl (no earnings)
who spends slightly over $1,300 of
her father's hard-earned cash, and
the minimum was by an unaffili
ated girl who lives in Lincoln
(consequently no rent most of
board, however) who spends ap
proximately $375 and earns $290
of that by outside work.
A conclusion? Students can
spend almost as little or as much
as they like to attend school, and,
judging from the statistics, it
seems they do!
