DAILY NEBRASKAN

After that little opus that ap
peared in Sunday's edition, I'm re
luctant to start on this column.
After all, competition of that type
is tough to take. But I'm safe in
passing on a few items that have
come to my attention.
The Alpha This gained two and
lost one pin over the weekend. Big
gest surprise, Clifton "Blossom"
Bloom placed his Sigma Nu star
on Alice Louise Becker. Next big
gest, and an expedient move, since
he leaves for the air corps this
month was Emerson Jones,' Sigma
Chi cross coming to rest on De
Maris Morton. Just a plain old
every day surprise was the break
ing up of Janet Westover and
Johnny Kuhlman, Delta Sig.
Big scoop! Dale Brockemeier,
Farm House, went hog wild and
gave Jean Wochner, Alpha Xi
Delta president, a pin and a dia
mond last night at 1 o'clock. I
wasn't there at the time so I
might have missed it 10 or 15 min
utes. I pause here to interject a poem,
the first sensible one that has ap
peared herein for sometime.
There are meters of accent,
There are meters of tone,
But the best way to meter
Is to meter alone.
There are letters of accent,
There are letters of tone,
But the best way to letter
Is to letter alone.
Now, wasn't that good tho!
Thank you, Oh, yes! Merlin James,
professional wise-cracker and thin
man of the Fiji house hung his pin
on Jane Robinson. What's the
matter with people anyhow. Pay
all that good money for fraternity
pins then go give them to the girls
who had one anyway. Oh, well,
everybody's doing it. But I'm
warning you guys that if this
thing doesn't stop there won't be
much business to transact when
picnics come around Or will
there?
Interesting item that appeared
in today's Journal:
"Sixty years ago today the uni
versity boys observed Charter Day
with a minstrel performance which
received considerable criticism be
cause it was not of a sufficiently
elevating character."
The original Kosmet Klub no
doubt.
Look for Mildred Engstrom and
Dale Brehm at the prom tonight.
Look for everybody at the prom
tonight.
The Brown Palace boys, most
active and organized of all the
barbs, are really doing things
around here. Tell you more about
them next time.
Until next time, then, I'll leave
you to the mercy of Sadie Hawk
ins who probably knows more
news that is not fit to print than
any other scribe living or dead.
Indiana university is celebrating
with a comprehensive program the
75th anniversary of admission of
women on an equality with men
to its classrooms.
John L. Bouchal Says U. S.
May Assume World Lead
The United States has a posi
tion of confidence and trust among
the nations of the word that will
permit her to assume world lead
ership in making post-war plans,
according to John L. Bouchal, for
mer U. S. consular official at
Prague and other foreign capitals.

The Rev. Frederick G. Hickey
and Prof. J. J. Hanley, both of the
chemistry department of Provi
dence college, are manufacturing
"sniff sets," containing poison gas
samples, as an aid to civilian
defense.
. . . In Posl-War Planning
phasized that the United States
must begin now to formulate peace
plans if universal freedom is going
to be one of the conditions of the
post-war world.
The speaker, graduate of the
class of 1912, was caught in Ger
man territory at the outbreak of
the war and spent several months
in a concentration camp. He is
living at his former home at Wil
ber. Statesmanship Needed
"The fangs of war must be
drawn from the aggressor na
tions." said Bouchal. "Then and
only tht-ii will the world be free
from tho menace of war. Such a
cour.se will not be easy, for it will
require the most astute statesman
ship." Hinting that an armed police
force might be necessary to main
tain post-war peace, Bouchal said,
"If we are obliged to keep an
armed force much in excess of the
one in the past, we must place our
trust in our government that this
i armed forces will be properly used
I in defending what we consider
I right. We are never going to be
an aggressor nation no matter
how large an armed force we may
have."
"Kindness Is Weakness."
The United States must not
again make the mistake, said
Bouchal, of deluding herself with
the thought that the smaller our
forces the less the possibility of
war. In the minds of axis coun
tries, kindness is weakness.
Only with force can we impress
the axis countries, he declared.
Master of ceremonies at the
Charter Day convocation was
Chancellor C. S. Boucher. Invo
cation was pronounced by the Rev.
Raymond V, Kearnes, jr., univer
sity Presbyterian pastor. The uni
versity symphony orchestra, under
the direction of Prof. Samuel Gor-
bach participated in the program.
Relates Experiences
Bouchal related some of his ex
periences since leaving the uni
versity to become assistant consul
at Prague. He has been a depart
ment of state representative for
the united States in Czechoslova
kia, Finland and Egypt. He was
interned in a Nazi concentration
camp for several - months before
being exchanged for German pris
oners held by the allied nations.
He and Mrs. Bouchal returned to
this country last summer on the
Swedish exchange ship, the "Drott'
ningholm."
In noting the anniversary of
tne university s founding, Bouchal
praised early pioneers of this state
and founders of the university for
their vision. "Education was what
was upppermost in their minds,"
he said, "because through educa
tion we can obtain a better stan
dard of welfare, of freedom and
democracy."
