DAILY NEBRASKAN
BY JIDGE MASON.
There's nothing quite so shat
tering to the morale of a society
writer than to sit at her type
writer with exactly one piece of
news to fill twelve inches. Maybe
by the time we get through
elongating that one piece of news
some kind person will have wan
dered in to spare you a "Mc
Nutterized" autobiography.
News: The recently activated
ROTC are beginning to get their
heads together to choose a Love
library queen. Apparently this di
version was created in order to
fill up the "free'' time which the
boys proverbially have on their
iands. The present plan is to
choose the girl from pictures sub
mitted by the fellows. Note; we
wondered when John Day would
start politics at the library.
We Tour the Campus.
Well that news is exhausted
and nine inches to go. Perhaps a
trip up to the grill will bring
some exciting results.
Sure enough; who should we
meet but Addie Kloepper and
Madge Haecker fresh out of Scar
let Fever quarantine, and looking
for new worlds to conquer. Another
interesting sight greeting our
eyes was Bob James sitting with
his former fiance's younger sister.
Wonder what the serious-looking
discussion was about.
Five inches to go, so until more
news comes our way we have
some, very important information
concerning your conduct during a
blackout.
1. If in a class when you hear
the air raid sirens, lead your
prof to the nearest manhole and
seal it up after he's entered.
Just tell him it's an air raid
shelter.
2. If you see any unexploded
small bombs pick them up and
shake them. They may just be
stuck. If they still don't go
off, take them back to the
cashier and get your money
back.
3. Be sure to put all the lights
in the house on. But make sure
the light in the ice box is out!
It may show the bombers a
good target.
By this time you're sure to have
recognized the source of these in
structions so we had best get to
some original and timely news.

Sigma Chi president, Ed Faytinger

standing at ease; waiting to march
to chow . . . once in the Union,
we stood in line outside of what
used to be the Pan-American
room . . . Let's see, what will I
have for dinner tonight; may I
have a menu please? Oh, I beg
your pardon! I forgot those were
civilian privileges ... oh well, it
was a darned good meal though
. . . march back to barracks . . .
such a life for a dogface . . .
now we have to draw bed clothes
for our beds . . . What's a square
corner anyway . . and so to study
hall, er, that place to catch up
on some of the latest humor.
Trying to borrow your buddy's
book proved to no avail when it
was discovered that over half of
the privates had not as yet pur
chased them. An so with taps, our
first five hours of "specialized
training" ended, but not without
a trot or two down three or four
flights of steps to wash and brush
your teeth, and maybe a friendly
game 'of "army dominoes" before
the- curfew.
Additions to the plane of North
western university in the last six
years are as great as all additions
made in the previous 85 years.
Wilson college has established
a neighborhood play center in
basement rooms formerly used for
tic duty Saturday night to keep
up the morale of Cudet Bob Ran
dall, Phi Gam from Seattle.
The army has had too much of
the limelight already, so we'll
bring hi the Navy with Jack
Wright, Beta, who is returning
to Lincoln to see Sarah Webster,
Pi Phi.
