UN Students Asset
Complex Matters Enter
In Inter-faith Marriages
. . . Along with Religion
By John Bauermeister.
Are interfaith marriages suc
cessful? As could be expected,
more cockeyed answers were re
ceived for this question than any
of the surveys that this reporter
has conducted. Students on this
campus didn't merely agree or
disagree with the statements of
Father Lisko, appearing yester
day's daily, but figured such com
plex maters as psychology, hu
man nature or personalities, and
lore entered into the institution of
marriage as well as religion,
Benny Kohout gave about the
simplest answer to a successful
union in announcing that "if the
girl's willing and the boy's willing,
nothing can stop 'cm," and then
there Ls always Pat Catlin who
thinks they'he wonderful" Inter-
faith marriages that is.
Rod Monismith and Harold Cull
tnan thought It was what they
called a "hot water subject" but
wanted to be quoted as saying,
first with Rod, "I belive funda
mentally that marriage is the most
perfect way of living that human
nature has provided, regardless of
one's faith, and I wish to eay
amen to that statement." Harold
came along with another oratorical
atatement in, "Faith is not one of
the strongest motives that brings
psychologcal conflicts, and that is
how marriage is governed."
Over in Vivian HiHebrandt't
booth there was a much ' more
reserved atmosphere. Vivien didn't
think any marriage could remain
successful unless one quits a re
ligion and one remains religions.
Helen Johnson, accompanying Viv
agreed also and added that, "its
alright if the couple decides which
religion they are going to follow
and remain in that religion, but a
couple going to separate churches
never have a successful marriage,
Janet Shaw thinks, "it depends
on how broad minded the husband
and wife are. It's posible, I be
lieve to have a successful mar
riage and a successful family with
the husband and wife going to
different churches." Polly Petty
j t
that agreed completely with Fa
ther Lisko. and wished to be
quoted so. "The mixing of protes
tant and cotholic interests Just
never seems to be a success," con
fided Polly.
Out in the lounge, the question,
when asked, started an argument
between Joan Finkle and Norman
Spurlock. Jona wants it known
that protestant and catholic mar
riages are successful and that fam
ilies could be successfully raised
with two different religions pre
vailing. She says," I've seen it
done, and all it takes is a little
psycnoiogy ana a level person
ality on the part of the parents."
Norman, conluded the argument
by wanting to be quoted as "be
lieving just the opposite of Joan."

grounds by Leo L. Lewellen, prom
inent Lincoln sportsman.
Due to the shorter distance from
the campus and the consequent re
duction of the wear and tear of
member's tires, this change has
been advocated. Tentative plans
would seem to combine physical
fitness and riding as the girls plan
to walk out to the fair grounds
Because of Emergency . . .
Seniors in Dental College
Work as Hospital Interns
. Get Doctor Experience
Amazing the changes brought
about by the national emergency.
The latest phenomenon has
changed dentists into doctors or
' .. .. v v " -
reasonable fascsimilies. The fact
is that the twelve seniors in the
university dental college are now
serving as internes in the Lincoln
hospitals.
According to Dr. Ferdinand
Griess, superintendent of the sur
gery clinic, the men are . getting
experience and instruction in gen
eral war emergency treatment so
that if the occasion ever presents
itself they will have had the neces
sary training. They are being
taught to administer interveinal
injections, make casts, give gen
eral anesethics, and other types
of emergency work.
St. Elizabeth's, the Lincoln Gen
eraL and the Bryan Memorial hos
pitals are all cooperating with the
university to make this training
possible. The staffs of the hospi
tals are giving their time and the
internes receive special lectures on
war emergency work. Just as any
of the regular internes, they are
subject to call any time of day
or night and for any sort of case
and either take a bus back or
arrange car transportation.
Excellent Instruction Given. (
Instruction in all phases of
riding, including jumping, five
gaited work, as well as English,
and Western riding is offered by
Mr. Lewellen and his instructors
at the special club rate of 50c a
ride with the purchase of a S
ticket entitling the holder to ten
rides. These tickets may be bought
on tne installment pian or two
girls may go in together on one
ticket.
Classes will be held at 8 a. m.
Saturdays, allowing plenty of time
for riders to make 10 o clocks on
the campus, and on Sunday morn
ings at 10 a. m. Plans have also
been made to take advantage of
the long evenings afforded by the
war time and to have a clas
after dinner during the week,"
Classes start this weekend.
Contact Officers.
For registration and sugges-.
tions, contact any of the club
officers: Virginia Chambers, presi-i
dent: Marge Rivett, vice president;!
Peggy Halsted, secretary, or Pat-
Chamberlin, treasurer. Students
may leave their names at the
WAA office.
Coeds are urged to practice as
much as possible during the rest
of the semester, not only because
the time remaining has been cut
by the shortened curriculum, but
also to prepare for the Inter
sorority Ride, which in spite of
the fact that the Farmer's Fair
has been eliminated, will be held
in the near future. Another horse
show of interest to coeds and men.
is the one sponsored by the Lin
coln school at the coliseum April
26, which is open to independent
uiversity competition. Details of
this show may be had from Mr.
Lewellen.
