SUMMER RAG.
r
Cyclone Athletes
Study to Hasten
Graduation Date
AMES. Iowa. June 30. World
War II has brought about a lot of
changes on the campus at Iowa
State college and the athletic de
partment contributes its share.
Today there are 18 Cyclone
gridders in summer school and
they are all eligible. Instead of
making up work to insure eligi
bility, the 18 men are doing all in
their power to cut short their eligi
bility by graduating in as short a
time as possible.
Ray Donels, varsity football
coach, was proud of the record of
the Cyclone squad as he checked
. over the summer school roster.
While several of the men are sen
iors and will not lose any playing
time, Donels' list included a num
ber of underclassmen who may
study themselves right out of the
school.

Pajamas, Safety Pins
Signify New Fraternity
..
By Norman Leger. '
Secret Society of the Safety Pin
was formed for the first time on
this campus or any other for that
matter last week when high
school fellows here for the all
state music course organized the
FFA.
Observers probably wondered
what the boys living at the Phi
Gam house were doing when
they appeared in their attrac
tive night shirts on the street
and at classes, but they only
wondered because they didn't
know about the FFA.
It all started a week ago Mon
day night at the regular house
meeting. Someone suggested that
the boys organize a fraternity to
be in force each summer during
the high school music session.
Quickly approved, the idea was
Immediately put into force and
steps were taken to create a con
stitution and a charter.
How About Initiation.
But before these detailed tech
nicalities were taken care of,
however, ideas suggesting ini
tiation for this year's members,
who, of course, are the charter
members, were discussed. Hav
ing the power to control their
own initiation, nothing more se
vere than the pajama top was
adopted.
Many have asked, "What does
the FFA stand for?" and, since
Men 18 to 20 Register;
May Be Called m Draft
Approximately 1,500 youths be
tween the ages of 18 and 20,
among them many university stu
dents and potential university stu
dents, signed up in Lincoln Tues
day in the fifth nationwide draft
registration.
The registration of the men
was carried out "perfectly," ac
cording to City Councilman H.
J. Amen, chairman of the Lin
coln draft board No. 1, and Brig.

of the state selective service, vis

it's no fraternal secret and you
can probably find it out anyway,
we'll tell you that it stands for
"Future Fathers of America."
That's the reason for the very
appropriate pin adopted by the
organization. It ic nothing less
than a brass safety pin of a spe
cific size and it must be brass
and just the right size to be
official, too.
To complete the club even more,
a novel salute was adopted and
this also is no fraternal secret.
Its execution consists of grasp
ing the nose with the left hand
while the right hand is raised in
the familiar "Heil Hitler" fashion.
He's AlreaJy a Father.
As to the detailed technicali
ties, mentioned above, they have
been left to the discretion of the
father of gne of the charter
members, who, it so happens, is
a lawyer. It will be his respon
sibility to draw up the charter
and to- put the rules of the con
stitution in their correct tech
nical terminology.
Tonight the first session of the
Future Fathers of America ends,
but the boys will not lose contact
with each other, since each has
been provided with a mimeo
graphed sheet containing the
names and addresses of the other
fellows and must write at least a
card to each of them sometime
during the year.

istration and said it was
Well Done.
"Running wonderfully well.
They seemed to have more facili
ties than required and were all
set to handle more registrants."
More than 50 volunteers did the
work.
Henninger also saw possibili
ties that seme of the 20 year old
men newly registered may be
called for induction by Sept. 1.
"While we have no definite in
struction on how soon members
of this registration who are 20
years of age are to be called, he
explained, "I think it is only fair
to warn young men of this class
they can expect some inductions
from their ranks by early fall.
Local boards will meet July
20 to complete the task of plac
ing serial numbers on the cards,
he said, and this will be done in
the order of birth dates with the
oldest men first. When arranged
in order the new cards will be
placed in local files immediately
following those of the men who
registered in February.

details of a new plan for enlisting
male students m the reserve corps
of the army, explained today that

Wrong This Time.
We definitely made a mistake
when we approached a young man
sitting alone. (We have always
found that the approach is most
successful if practised on a sin
gulity). But this time my young
man turned out to be a principal
of a high school and was that
all ? Naturally not.
Mr. Lumir Gerner is also
secretary of the NSPA and
here we were interviewing himl
Mr. Gerner entered right in the
spirit of the thing though with
this chewy little snack, "Oh, I
would eat a plaster sandwich
now and then, but I would cer
tainly need some spirits to chase
my blues away." He has a keen
plan to sweeten the atmosphere

or two as he is going to take
along some Apple Blossom co
logne to spray around a bit.

John DePutron, cooperative gent
from the DU house, regrettfully
put aside his new Cornhusker and
smiled like any good gentleman
should smile when we told our
story. He said that he would prob
ably look at things most of the
time as he is terribly interested
in geology, photography, mathe
matics, et al. One thing he needs
for sure is the keys to the rooms
