4 DAILY NEBRASKAN Thursday, March 18, 1943 IL! BY JANET MASON. Wolfgang (Douglass) Monroe hu finally found an answer to hia plea for a new society editor, The first job which confronts any new society editor is to straighten out the unauthentic re ports of his predecessor. Nanjely, Betty Ruth Dunlap, Chi O., does not have Sig Ep Ray Miller s pin It has been rumored that Charlie Spivak is coming to the Turnpike Friday but from previous expert encea we have learned not to stake too much on rumors. Nevertheless a few of the wishful thinkers have made dates for the affair. One date in particular which caught our attention was that of ATO Johnny Thompson and DG Helen Johnson, Phi Delt Johnny (C Card) Jones will be seen with Miggs Manning, Kappa pledge and Bob Ferguson, DU, with Helen Greuscl, AOPI. Norm Hoik and Bill Gist will be patronizing Fred's Friday night in view of the Theta initiation which will occupy the time of Johne Ackerman and Bar bara Schlater. Things I've Always to Know. Why the ATO freshmen don't have the nerve to give Jawn Mason a full-cut; or (why I am going into hibernation after Monday night)? What choir that Jean McCart ney signs in practices until 12:30 on Wednesday nights? Why Mark Hargraves, George Wright and Jim Nicola are import ing three girls from Missouri for week-end dates? Could it be to promote the football game between Missouri and Nebraska? Competing with the Fiji-Tau tussle is the DU luncheon dance Saturday at the DU house. Among those present will be Bill McCor ntaughey and his Alpha Chi "steady" Eunice Ensor, Kurt Kim ball and Alpha Phi Mary Lee Stauf and Kent (speedy-on-the- track-how-does-he-do-on-the-grass ) Kratz and Mary Tussey. Perhaps Cornhusker sales will flourish with this bit of informa tion: A stolen glance through the Cornhusker files revealed that Alice Louise Becker has been hold ing out two interesting pictures, taken at a Phi Gam party last year, of a well-known f porta writer with one of his fraternity brother s girls. Wow! Seen coking in the Union was Bob Terhune, para-trooper, form erly of UN, with Mary Lee Tom linson, DG. The biggest order of the day for Saturday is the Fin-Tau tussle bringing together Finn Howard. ATO, and Lois Scofield. Alpha Chi, John Binning, Phi Gam and June Criffen, Tri Delt, and Bob Schlater. ATO and Judy O'Conner, Kappa. News comes of the marriage of C.inny Hay, Kappa, and Harry Rin.ler, Beta of last year, last week following Harrys commis sion as an ensign. A parting word results In a fer vent hope that the new N-club Initiates will recover from their boardings in time to enjoy an eventful week-end. Election (Continued from Page 1.) COED COUNSELORS.

The process for making motor fuel was developed as a possible means of using bananas which are now rotting on the ground for lack of shipping facilities.
