Snow Leaves as Leaves Bud
If spring hadn't sprung Wednesday, it was well on its way
toward springing.
Spring, according to Webster, "is the season of the year
when plants begin to vegetate and grow; the vernal season,
usually including March, April and May . . ."
Just six days ago Lincoln had seven inches of snow; four
days ago ushered in the vernal equinox and Wednesday,
spring- began springing.
Out on Forty-eighth street, just east of the railroad bridge,
two men sat beside a fire. The first two arrivals at one of Lan-

Boundaries are artificial, so
therefore there can be no perfect
solution to the problem of settling
territorial claims, said Dr. Nor
man L. Hill, professor of political
science at the University of Ne
braska, as he addressed an open
forum Wednesday at the Student
Union on "Remaking the Map."
Nations now are formulating
claims for new territories to pre
sent at the conference table when
peace for this war is settled, said
Hill. Bases for claims are stra
tegic, historic, geographic, ethnic
and economic.
As for post-war Europe, Hill
commented that a federation of
states would be a fine suggestion,
but that it is extremely unlikely
that such a thing will come about.
"In the first place," stated Hill,
"Russia opposes it, and will use
threat of its power to carry out
opposition. Secondly, the nations
themselves will not agree to it
and will not work cooperatively
for it." Russian power, he opined,
will prevent many proposed com
promises. (See DISPUTES, Page 2.)

Expect Grid
Board to Act

Official athletic board ac

Nebraska spring game is now
awaiting only a meeting of
board members.
"As soon as we receive the
petition from the football
squad, we'll call a meeting,"
said Prof. R. D. Scott, chair
man of the board.
"If we approve the game,
then approval must next be ob
tained from the conference."

great message of "Thunder Rock"
nor the uproarious comedy of "Ar

the Frying Pan." It does have a
simple, unadorned trait of human
nature to show that men require
a woman's touch to make their
lives a success, that this feminine
addition must be made quietly and
unostentatiously to avoid male re
sentment. Heine Forceful.
In the opening night perform
ance the timing and the pace of
the show were a little slow in the
first act, a flaw that probably will
not be repeated in subsequent per
formances of the play.
The play centers around Maggie
Wylie, who becomes the wife of
the young, ambitious legislator.
Bette Heine, in the role, builds
up a picture of a quiet but forceful
plain woman who wins her man
not with charm but by her utter
devotion and her continued efforts
to help his career.
Andrews Good.
David Andrews, as John Shand
the young Scotch politician, does
well in his first role in the theatre.
His first night nervousness was
counterbalanced by the quality of
his voice.
