Oddities from Olie.
Ye Olde Nebraska Campus is
filled with rumors which are al
legedly hotter than the Eisenhart-
Wright romance. For your infor
mation any rumor as to who
wrote this column is strictly
wrong because they are so hard
up for gossip that no one would
suspect the real author.
Friday night we heard one of
the bigger boys talking about a
big party and then again &aiur
day morning heard them say
something about little Joe in a
top hat. We still can't figure out
whether they had a big dice game
or whether that was some kind of
new war talk.
Dorm Troubles.
Just for your information the
quarantining of the dorm for scar
let fever was no. news to me since
we saw some guy leave there Sat
urday night and he had really a
bad case, it showed all over his
face and there was even some
on his shirt. Probably it wore off
of him.
Manking, prepare yourself for a
blow, that is if you didn't hear it
on the radio last night Polly
Petty is now displaying the Sigma
Chi cross of Art Mason alongside
of her own Alpha Phi pin.
Beep True, Tri Delt, isn't fooling
anyone, at least not this person
Last weekend she wit home with
Ann Stephens to spend the week
end with her. What she hoped
would not get out is the fact that
last weekend Warner Stephens,
Ann's brother, was also at that
place prior to his leaving for the
army. I sincerely hope that she
had a good time and that the Tri
Delts razz her plenty.
Something new in UN recrca
tion was uncovered Sunday after
noon when "Roger the Lodger"
Cannel, the Phi Gam playboy, took
his date, Theta Jean "Don't Mis
pronounce MY Name" Rotton
kite-flying. "It's great sport,
said Cannel, "and we flew the kite
the whole while."
Up and Down.
As if the loosing of Polly Petty
wasn't serious enough to the men
at UN, Peggy Lemmon, Theta, 13
now going steady with Stan
Maley, Sigma Nu. I wonder how
long ATO pledges worked picking
up the pieces of Tut MaKee's
heart. Too bad!
Another steady deal which has
been steady for two weeks, yet un
publicized, is the Theta Ann Sea-crest-rhi
Psi Wayne Southwick
merger. Seems that these love
birds have been cooing together
so long that everyone thought
they were going steady before.
Mel England, former Kappa Sig
Innocent, will be returning to our
happy little campus in a few days
to see some of the boys and
among other things Cuz Cowden,
Chi O. They have been keeping
the mailman busy with tasty tid
bits (whatever that is).
And now we quietly take our
leave and as the Arabs throw a
blanket over our shoulder and
steal quietly into Antelope park.

man who didn't take yes for an
answer.

often lead to big case of blues.

in 12 or more hours per week at
the job, and bought at their own
expense if they work less than
that. The uniform has not yet
been designed.
Women Disciplined.
Also like their male colleagues,
women will be subject to military
discipline while on duty.
Coast guard officials report that
quotas have not yet been set for
all cities, but approximately one
woman per every ten men is need
ed. In Philadelphia, for instance,
where the voluntary port security
force has about 2,000 members,
200 women volunteers will be re
cruited. Women living in port cities who
are interested in joining the vol
unteer port security force should
watch for announcements in their
local papers, coast guard officials
advise.

To Avoid Shortage . . .
WPB Cheeks University
Buying of Lab Equipment
. . . For Trainee Program
The war production board last
week clamped down on uncon
trolled buying of laboratory equip
ment by colleges who are getting
ready for their influx of army
and navy trainees.
In a move to assure all colleges
sufficient equipment to teach the
physics and other required science
courses to their military students,
WPB ordered that colleges must
get the board's approval before
ordering supplies. This move,
WPB officials pointed out, will
particularly protect the colleges
whose V-12 and army specialized
training programs don't start until
next summer.
Check College Buying.
By requiring WPB approval, ex
cessive buying by any one college
can be checked, and the available
laboratory equipment will be
spread equitably among the many
institutions that need it, WPB of
ficials report. Before restrictions
were ordered, laboratory supplies
were being ordered by colleges at
a rate which threatened to soak
up more equipment than manufac
turers could produce in two years.
The actual terms of the order
provide that colleges must fill out
WPB form PD-G20, submit it to
WPB, and present the approved
form to the manufacturers when
they order. WPB officials report
that form PD-620 will require only
one day to clear thru the Wash
ington office.
Even before this new order went
thru, colleges were not entirely
free to buy laboratory equipment
as they wanted it. A former order
required colleges to obtain WPB
approval before ordering equip
ment valued at more than $50 per
item. However, as most single
items of equipment cost much less
than that, colleges in practice sel
dom had to deal thru WPB. The
present order in the form of an
amendment to the previous one
gives WPB complete control of the
field for the first time.

The university has anticipated

but definite plans for a unit here
in the near future have not been
announced.
In connection with the new as
signments of Colonel Murphy and
Captain Johnson, it was pointed
out that the former will exercise
