DAILY NEBRASKAN

by
Yeah, we think you had better
go. to Kosmet Klub that is. Worth
the price of admission is the sight
of Beta Bill McBride in silk stock
ings, ATO George Blackstone
with a bald-headed wig and bent
knees, arid especially fascinating,
brunette Jimmy Stillwell, DU,
who makes a better looking girl
than many a perennial wearer of
skirts and anklets. ...
A. little late but too good to
pass up is the announcement of
Betty "Blitz" Lillibridge, DG,
newest nickname. Bestowed on
her by her constant escort, Reed
Smith, of that house; Betty is
now to be known to all and sun
dry as Nebraska's Sweater Girl.
. . . Another DG making news
these days is Pat Hinkle who has
snagged completely the affections
of once-known as "Love 'em and
leave 'em" Bert Smith, Phi Psi.
Steady is the word for them. . . .
One steady deal we aren't sure
of but that rumor says is really
all set is that between Harold Sal
isbury, Beta, and Marge Martin,
Alpha Phi. It has taken almost all
year but now they say the deci
sion has been reached. . . .
Two Frats Have New Pledges.
Two fraternities are to be con
gratulated for gathering into their
respective folds a couple of the
better boys, we refer in case you
don't know to the pledging of
George Abbott by the ATOs and
that of Vince Cutshall by the Phi
Delts. . . . The Alpha Xi Delfs
are really getting their men these
days for two of them are an
nouncing future marriage plans.
Mary Louise Howerter will join
her fate to that of Russ Stueber
in April, while Ruth Clark, Mortar
Board of last year, is soon to take
the vows with Bob Griffin. . . .
The Kappas, lucky dogs, ate a pic
nic supper in their own back yard
last night and then played a rous
ing game of baseball between the
oonmrs and underclassmen much
to the admiration of the Sigma
Nus across the street. . . .
Planning on takine in the Inter
Co-op spring formal this Friday
are Bud Boldt and Jean Brehm as
well as Howard Jensen of the
Cornhusker Co-op with Doreen
Fisher of Howard Hall. . . . Cele
brating Bob Gillespie Phi Delt's
hirthdav Sundav at Jan Savitt
will be Bob with Theta Becky
Wait and Bin Komnson, nappa
Sig. with Pi Phi Bell Cochran. . . .
Fred Stiner, law student and Phi
Psi. is going in for the opposite
sex in a big way these days. Last
weekend saw him with no less
than three different dates in two
days, the lucky girls being Bar
hnra Morehouse. Aloha Phi aueen:
Betty Jo Billesby, Theta, and Jane
Emery, well-known DG. Barbara,
however, in accordance with her
usual habit, seems to have won
out and several repeat dates have
come her way. . . . All the Phi
Psi3 seem very much interested in
the whole affair. . . .
