Learn by Doing .
Nebraska's 2,078 cadets officially po on the march today
when they present the first parade of the year. This ceremony
should be interesting since no instructor will be on the field and
the entire parade is in the hands of the cadet officers.
This practical experience in actually doing the work and
taking the responsibilities of military organization is one of the
new feautres of the military department this year. Since the
men in the advance courses wil leave within a few months and
actually take over command of troops this experience ill be
valuable to them.
The student officers have a responsibility on their hands
and they can make or break the parade today. Each man should
take initaitive and require the men under his command to also
take the initiative in putting over this parade and all other
functions undertaken by the military department.
Military courtesy is one phase of military life which has
been neglected to a great degree on this campus. Under the new
plan, this training is bemg enforced. All cadets are instructed
to salute student officers. While this may seem strange to some
people, the idea is to give all cadets the experience in such
phases of military life.
The place to learn proper military training is riirht here.
The training this year is designed to give the responsibility and
work to the cadets. It is up to each cadet to prove his ability
to accept the responsibility.

way of activity curtailment the
WPB will take care of. Last year
it was cokes and this year it's cof
fee. At any rate Leon Henderson
ays one cup a day for the civilian.
Some of the students ideas on
the subject are registered here.
Roland Finley, ATO; "College
students should be given more
than one pound for five weeks.
Caff in seems to be the major stim
tilant used by most College Joes
and Betty Coeds for burning the
mid-night oil" Tom Drummond
' suggests that No Doze tablets will
work just as well and they're not
rationed as yet, while Pres Hays,
Sigma Nu sage feels that it will
ruin bis morning but anything for
victory. That's the right idea, es
pecially since Pres goes into the
army upon graduation.
Union waiters think it will be
fine because think of the shoe
leather they'll save not having to
run after refills. Said waiter Jim
Carities, "It's okay with me, 1
think that getting coffee is all a
lot of trouble in a rush."
Four cupper Bob Henderson, Sig
Ep prexy griped "I guess the
freshmen will have to do without,"
Woe is the life of a frat pledge.
Dave Marvin, answer the question
put to him with "I pity the poor
Swedes." Phi Gam Bob Miller
showed his feeling on the subject
by replying when queried ; "Darn
those guys in Washington," while
Jean Baker, Pi Phi gasped "What
about my second morning cup?"
Finally Max Laughtin, who al
ways adds his two cents to every
conversation declares, "Oh, I don't
think that rationing coffee will
cause too much effect on univer
sity students habits. After all,
there's always milk."
YWCA Postpones
Tea Until Nov. 5
The YWCA Freshman tea,
which was scheduled for Thurs
day, Oct 29, has been postponed

Two Former
Students Raid
Jap-held Port
Two former University of Ne
braska students were in the
thick of it in a recent raid on
Japanese held RabauL Lt. Jack
R. Wilson and Lt Jim DeWolf
were piloting two U. S. Flying
Fortresses which inflicted much
damage on Japanese ships.
The last plane did not leave
the target until almost daylight
Its pilot, Lieutenant Wilson,
said: "We spotted the target
and went down to less than 150
feet over four transports. We
must have certainly damaged
one big vessel."
Lieutenant DeWolf, an active
participant in the action near
New Guinea, was also mentioned
in a recent dispatch.
A member of SigfTia Alpha
Epsilon during his three years
at Nebraska, DeWolf's home
town is Kearney. Wilson, also
a former student at Nebraska,
entered the army air corps in
September, 1940, and received
his wings at Randolph Field,
Tex., in April, 1941. Altho sta
tioned at Hickam Field, Hawaii,
during the raid on Pearl Harbor,
he saw no active battle.
