Spring, Army Make
Ed Wander, Wonder
Every editor has a right to wonder and
wander editorially when it is spring and espe
cially when he is situated in the library away
from the exciting activities of the campus.
Stretching literary license to the utmost,
we keep wanting to write about Ivy day, the
army flags, the university, the American peo
ple and spring at the same time. So that is
what we propose to do.
Unlike last year when everybody knew
who the new Mortar Board were long before
they were masked, we sit in the library won
dering who will be cheated out of the honor
this year, whether anybody wil hang around to
see the masking, if the Kappas and Alpha Phis
will be celebrating the membership of two
black-robed gals, whether the whole thing
makes sense.
Then we wonder about the Ivy day queen
lind her court. Everybody says that the royal
title rests between two sorority girls, Delta
Gamma and Theta, but pre-Ivy day whisper
ings are usually inaccurate.
That satisfies the Ivy day urge; now we
wonder and wonder why :
1. Why there is no flag at the library
where 600 soldiers are now stationed and where
there is, by the way, what appears to be a sat
isfactory flag pole.
2. Why the newly tapped Innocents do
not throw the best party of the year before
school ends as they have been planning to do.
3. Why university students are so indif
ferent to everything going on in the world, all
engrossed in petty campus activities.
4. Why the American people have found
it so difficult to accept compulsory military
training in peacetime. The army builds up
men in war or in peace.
5. Why the EOTO was not activiated six
months ago when the UN men could have had
real taste of the army before beginning the
G. I. grind.
6. Why the people of Nebraska, the legis
lature in particular, have not yet woken up to
the fact that the state university' has slipped
and is slipping from every standpoint : Phys
ical, faculty, enrolment.
7. Why in the springtime and in the
short period of time this editor devotes daily
to the Nebraskan, he cannot write a coherent,
unified editorial. It's either the spring or the
army. Probably the former.

Aesculanins. and started lookine medical. I politely e&me to
attention, and the lieutenant muttered something complimen
tary about my military angle. Then he poked me in the middle
of my swelling, and I yelled.
"Il-mmmm," he commented. "Come with me. I want the
captain to see your throat." The captain was working a eross
word puzzle and immediately assumed a bored attitude as we
approached. When he saw my distorted jaw line, he put his
fingers over his nose, presumably to keep out germs, and yelled,
"Take him away. He's sot the mumps."
After that ordeal I was introduced to someone wearing a
German measle rash, and told to wait until the ambulance was
ready to leave for the station hospital. My measled friend and
I immediately became social outcasts, when the more healthy
Lsoldiers in the room moved quickly away from us. We got a
private seat in the ambulance, and began to get ine reeling mar,
no one loved us.
At the station hospital, I was poked and questioned by
some more medical officers, and finally everyone agreed that
I really ought to take my mumps to bed. So at last I was wel
comed to the mumps ward of the isolation annex by a bunch
of eood fellows who were recovering from what I had just ac
quired. Everyone was most happy to meet a new victim and,
assure him that his fourteen days m bed woud be most eiw
joyable.

two ingenius affairs for doors.
Each actor and actress who
ascends or descends those stairs
swears he takes his life in his
hands every time, for those stairs
end at the top in a narrow 20 inch
square piece with a big crack
down the center. It creaks and
groans under the slightest weight.
But that isn't all the stairs lead
ing down to the floor behind stage
are narrow, uneven and high.
Mr. Z.'s mechanical desires are
expressed in the two doors at the
back of the stage. His pride and
joy is a double door that rolls
smoothly and noiselessly into
place. The door leading to the
lawn beyond is a model of the old
colonial and Dutch variety which
opens from either the top or bot
tom, or both if the players want
to go in or out.
The behind stage property is
topped off by a tiny dressing room
