Fools The Suspicious Any reports of polities involving John J. Douglass's Stu dent Foundation were discounted yesterday, first of all by the retirement of Douglass as chairman; secondly by the ap pointment of an unaffiliated woman to one of the top three po sitions. Since the foundation began to sponsor the student post war scholarship fund, there has been some speculation on the part of a few barbsfor the most part, those who have par ticipated in politics on the campus for the past few years that there might be something illegitimate about the fund, chiefly because of Douglass's association with it. As a matter of fact, the foundation is one idea that "dea Man" Douglass kept out of campus politics, but his record was none too clean, for as a stalwart in the greek political faction, he had been in on some of the faster deals. For those who can't help connecting' Douglass and poli tics, the appointment of a new chairman is welcome. For those v ho have known of his sincere interest jn the foundation, the naming of a barb girl to high post was not surprising. To Douglass, we say: Congratulations for a job well done To successor Polly Petty: Best of luck in an undertaking that is one of the more worthwhile student activities. And to all students: Cet behind the foundation, push it morally and financially. Council . . . (Continued from Page 1.) election on the campus right now, we'd beat the pants off the barbs." "I smell politics. If pharmacy's getting along all right now with no representative, what good would a man from another college do them?" Also tabled was a plan to replace ti;e barb representative from pharmacy college with a jun ior man. One greek woman feared that the holdover ratio would be changed, but Council president Dick Harnsburger assured her that, although that act, too, was unconstitutional, it was only fair to the barb patty. Only actual business transacted at the meeting was the defeat of a icquest to change the Corn Cob constitution to admit one more member in the coming elec tion, the approval of the new of ficers for the Student Founda tion, and a resolution to request abolishment of final exams for graduating seniors. War Causing US To Use Brains, Nol lo Breakdown BALTIMORE,-Md (ACP). Did you think the war would bring a rush of nervous breakdowns? You did? Well, you were wrong, says Dr. Esther L. Richards, associate professor of psychiatry at Johns Hopkins university. "Work and income are the two irreat saviors of nerve," she re marked. , , There is still another feason hy Americans haven't cracked under the strain of war, she said. The American state of mind has been helped by the communal feeling rising from the war, both in the knowledge that the fate of everyone is essentially the same and in co-operative efforts to win the war.

Dance On The Campus Friday JOHNNY li Iti COX'S BAUD 9 to Midnitc Union Ballroom "A Smooth Floor A Smooth Band" Two week-ends ago Howard hall girls were selling tickets for a quadrangle that the cap tain of their jiu-jitsu team,. Ellen Sim, had drawn. Dean, from a navy . quartermaster's training school in California, Bill, from the cavalry in Kansas, and Bob Dewey, the Ne braska steady, were all set to give Ellen a busy time. Unfortunately Bill failed to make train connections or something, and cut Ellen's trou bles by a third, but lucky rain cheek holders are coming back for a second act this weekend. It seems that Elspeth Jane, a girl Bob Dewey met in South Dakota, is; bringing her line to Lincoln Thursday night, for the debate and speech tournament to be held on this campus. Now the tables are turning so fast that no one dares to go under for fear of be ing stepped on. Personally we are relying on Ellen's right upper-cut to sove everything. The next time we yell, "AVe wanna be a captain, too," we are asking someone to plas ter a "Kick Me" sign where it will do the most good. Now we are a captain in the Red Cross drive, and find that there is some work in volved.
