In The Face . . .
Members of Ihe Innocents' society who
sponsored 1 he homecoming scrap drive,
dropped their 1eelh yesterday when they read
the story of "Scrap Which Is Not Found in
Frat Piles7' which appeared in a local news
paper yesterday.
According to the story, Sheriff Myles Hol
loway has been kept busy for a few days at
tempting to track down scrap which really
was not scrap hut useful articles which farm
ers in the surrounding area wanled to keep.
The Innocents were not notified of this situa
tion and learned about it thru screaming bead
lines, which incidentally made the University
of Nebraska look like a reform school.
Quite naturally, the Innocents regret any
such action on the part of either fraternity or
sorority Women who participated in the drive,
but according to the slory it was insinuated
that all material mising from these farms was
taken by members of these groups on this
campus. There is no actual proof for this in
sinuation. Did the sheriff ever find the lost articles
in the fraternity scrap piles? According 1o Ihe
story, a few of Ihe articles were recovered but
no mention was made whether the majority
of the articles were found in fralcrnity piles.
No consideration was given to the fact that
much of this stolen material might be found in
some scrap pile not on the campus.
The Innocents' socicly had a good idea.
The drive was successful. If the authorities
found some groups misusing the privileges as
scrap collectors, the Innocents would have ap
preciated some sort of notice of the vandalism.
It seems bad business all the way around
that the authorities merely arc notified of rniss-
Well, another day, and here I am again.
Sure seems like a long time since 1 got to
tell you about me and Callie so I will tell
you some of the details now. Callie and me
sure have been having a swell time. I went
with her to the llamelletic meeting the other
day and boy is that ever a place no respect
able man should show his face and probably no
respect able worn an eit her.
They just sit there aid wait for a signal
from some babe up in front who puts up one
finger if you vote yes and two if you are to
vote no on all the stuff they bring up at ihosc
meetings over in Helen Jones hall. Reminds
me of the time when I used to go to grade
school in the lower grades when you held up
one or two fingers according to which it was,
and then got excused from class for five min
utes to take care of it.
Well, ai'n-r tin; llamelletic meeting Callie
and me strolls over to the Union 1 don't
know why everybody calls it the Union be
cause they never hold a Union meeting like
my old man goes to back in Uinkville because
he is one of the members of local Union 210
of garbage collectors. Well, anyhow me and
Caliie walks into the CI rill which is the name
they give to the same thing as the corner drug
store in Pinkville only they ain't got modi
eene and stuff like that but they have got
strawberry sodas, me and Callie went in there
to buy a root beer.
When we walked into the Grill all the
boys really give Callie the once over. She
sure does attract men like that. Just like some
girls who my frat brothers said live down on
the corner of 1 and li street attract em. ah
during the time while me and Callie is sipping
our slrawbcry d rinks all ihe boys keep look
in n- f.i Tirr mid ivin? her the slare. 1 think
'" .. ...... ,
mvt 1 will have 1o smack all of 1hem
that looks at her like that and whoi I men

Lying flat on my back under

thought of more things that have
happened here at dear old uxn.
Seems to me the boys and girls
on this campus never Know me
humor that runs around Sosh and
the Union alone.
One of the most appropriate
ouips came from John Bottom
who was lunching with Theta
Marion Lynch in the Com Crib:
'Arc you the guy who took our
order?"
"Yes, sir."
"Well, I be damned you don't
look a day older."
The Alpha Xi Delts went into
huddle the other day and de
cided to punt. As a result, Bob
Lynn landed in the arms of Ann
Jacobs for Friday night, but a
fumble occurred on the play and
Steamboat" Fulton recovered for
a date on Saturday night.
It has been rumored that over
the porch light switch in the Theta
house hangs this reminder: "The
dimmer the porch light, the
greater the scandal power."
Jack Rokahr stood up at dm
ing articles which have iot been located in fra
ternilv scran piles, give that story 1o a loea
rancr who make a big issue of the situation
and incidentally bring some bad publicity 1o
1he university when Ihe situation might have
been more thoroly investigated by the lnno
eenls and a thoro, accurate report made.
What this university needs is more sup
nr.rt frnm I.inncoln authorities and a certain
Lincoln newspaper.

Wednesday morning when the
trig class slowed down a bit, I
asked Jean Nordstrom how she

she answered, "a smart girl is

Since the candy-passing oc

the most kissable man on the
campus, much to the chagrin of
those nominating George Abbott.
John Bauermeister came up to
me the other day with this state
ment: "You've had some things

real poem on what happened to
me when I took out a new Pi

When questioned about the com
