'Stamp Thursday' '
Students on this campus will have an opportunity to add
their bit to the war effort again tomorrow when the Student
War Council begins its first "Stamp Thursday". The project
has been carefully planned and the results of the first day
should be interesting.
Some men and women on this campus have purchased
stamps quite regularly in the Union but the percentage of the
complete student body doing such purchasing has been very
low. With this program, the War Council is giving every stu
dent the chance to buy a ten cent stamp once a week. This
will not cut into any one individual's budget but will amount
to quite a large sum if every student will participate.
Each week the percentage of students buying stamps will
be published and an attempt will be made to have a larger
group buying the next week until the complete student body is
purchasing a stamp.
Different groups on the campus have volunteered man
power to run the booths during the day. The War Council has
gone to a great deal of trouble to buy the stamps to be pur
chased. Full co-operation in the drive is asked of every stu
dent. In reality this program is not a drive but a carefully de
vised savings program for the persons involved. Instead of
buying two cokes a week or some other small item, students
will be placing this amount into savings. It means a stable in
vestment as well as a patriotic duty.
The success of the first Thursday will be determined by.
actual student interest. Groups should talk it up in their
houses and among their friends. If the War Council can give
us a program as tangible as this one, we should put it over with
a huge success.
"Stamp Thursday" should be a red letter day on every
student's calander and this campus should be buying stamps
100 in a few weeks.

Dear Editor:
Why can't we have a "juke" box in the
Union that students can dance to!
A large proportion of the colleges in this
country have places where students can dance
anytime they want, providing of course that
someone in the crowd has a nickel. Wosleyan,
yes, even Wosleyan now has a place where
students can dance between classes. If there
is a valid reason why we cannot have a place
to dance when we want to I would appreciate
an answer through this column. 1 have dis
cussed this with perhaps half a hundred stu
dents and they all agreed with me whole
heartedly. I also am wondering why the Union
couldn't have music box dances on weekends
the night that a band doesn't play. rlhc pic
ture shows downtown arc charging exorbitant
rates that the average student can ill afford
to pay. It is practically impossible to get into
the better shows on Saturday night, and be
cause of the rubber shortage it is unpatriotic
to drive twelve miles to seek entertainment.
Our Union has the facilities to take care
of this entertainment situation. Why are they
not being used.
Ward Branson.
(Editor's note: Sounds like a good idea.
Take the idea up with Union officials. I'm
sure they will at least give your plan consid
eration.) Dear Editor:
I have long believed in placing credit
where credit is due. I was, therefore, dis
gusted upon seeing the "Rag" taking all of
the credit for arousing the enthusiasm of the
stduent body last Friday night. 1 realize that
the "Rag" was a spark in setting the fire, but
had it not been for the efforts of Stan Lowe
and his Brown Palace Co-op colleagues, that
fire would have smouldered and died. Jack
Hogan and his band of faithful cheer-leaders,
were also instrumental in the initiation of the
big rally. We did not, however, notice any of
the Daily Ncbraskan editors in the "nucleus"
which formed in front of the Student Union at
7:15 P. M.
THE CARE AND HANDLING OF
BLIND DATES.
Freshmen, have you ever been worried'
about what you should do when with a blind
date? As a freshman, I ran up against this
problem, but was sort of green and didn't ex
actly know what the score was. I didn't know
whether I should be a gentleman, or act like a
Sig Nu. Now, three years later, I 'm still sort
of green and don't know exactly what the
score is.
In order to understand the correct tech
niques in the care and handling of blind dates,
possibly we had better ask the dates them,
selves: "How do YOU like to be handled?"
Pat Catlin, Kappa: From a distance.
Kit Carson, Theta: They cither have to
be nice, or a Sig Alph.
Kay Detweiler, D. O.: They must have
personality, poise, retreads, and not want to
go steady.
Jack Higgins: Huh!
Beanie Allen, Alpha Phi: If it's with a
Beta, make sure that it's a well-lighted house
party.
Helen Roily, Ti Beta Phi:
fun on the FIRST date.
Janice Goldsmith, Alpha
on what the guy looks like.
Pirates were extremely lucky because
they didn't have to worry about blind dates.
Well, I like to
Chi: Depends
The "nucleus" consisted of the following
co-op houses: Brown Palace, Pioneer, Corn
husker, Howard Hall, Wilson Hall, and Rosa
Bouton Hall.
The Brown Palace boys have been turning
out practically 100 at each rally and when
the Daily indicated that there would be no
rally we were sure that something had to be
done. Our social chairman, Stan Lowe, spent
nearly all afternoon organizing this rally.
The "Rag" stated that the student body
was dead. Yes, and with the exception of a
few students, the body was still dead up to
7 :00 P. M. Then with the ringing of the tradii
tional Victory Bell, a co-op organized band,
the cheers of our Pep Squad, and the cries and
pleadings of the "nucleus," the dead came to
life. Reviving students, poured from their
houses to produce the largest rally of the year.
Sincerely,
Dale L. Butler.
(Editor's note: We too believe in placing
credit where credit is due. According to our
story, the rally was held and it turned out suc
cessfully. This is the first knowledge I have
had of the person or group of persons who
actually started the rally. The members of
the co-op houses and cheer leaders should be
commended highly on their efforts.)
