Offing
Mercenary-minded, in this age
of regimentation and practicabil
ity, the Innocents promise "there
is plenty in the offing" at their
"farewell to Arms" ball for the
escorts and their dates Friday eve
ning, April 7, at the coliseum.
And that includes' "just about
everything" from queens to dates,
from dreams to Basie Givens band,
and from 12:30 nights for coeds
to 1 o'clocks for the men.
'Queenies."
Looking at things from the
"queen" angle, the Innocents at
an undisclosed hour will "tap" six
undisclosed 1943 Cornhusker
beauty queens, and escort them
between two brother members on
to the spotlighted stage. Joe Zim
merman, golden-voiced director of
the University Players will an
nounce the winnahs.
The date angle rests with the
dean of women and the War coun
cil committee on entertainment,
and "piperoos" they will be, ac
cording to Lois Christie, chairman
of the committee. STARS from ag
campus have signed their names
and heights with Dale Wolf, Inno
cent in charge of ticket sales on
that campus, and the. list will lie
in the hands of Mrs. Verna Boyles
by this noon when the fun will
begin.
Let's Get Together.
Members of the air crew sta
tioned on the city campus have
turned their names to Lieutenant
Marshall. All arranged dates will
meet at 8:30 in the Union lobby
before the dance, and will go on
from there.
Speaking of dreams, the Daily
refers to the series of. mistifying
pitcures that have run in the pa
pers columns, come 9 to l p. m
this Friday, prexy Bill Thomburg
is going to have a lot of explain
ing to do. What is it?
Last is Basie Givens orchestra
which is tops on the list of activi
ties for the night. He's a hot
smooth band, one of the few left
after the wartime tailoring; of all
rhythm-minded maestros.
Getting back to the mercenary
minded Innocents, they wish to
announce that tickets are $1.10
(tax included) per couple. They
also want everyone to come. .
WROTC's Meet
Today for Drill
The Women'i ROTC unit will
meet for two hours of drill to

Drill will begin at 3 and last
until 5. All members are asked
to be present. It will be the
next to last meeting of the
group.

Who Is She? . .
Can it be you, or can it? Well,
can it be a de-lovely Cornhusker
piece of cheesecake, or can it
be the other end of the lip
stick which Norrie Anderson
wears upon provocation, or can
it be what the boys dream about
now that they live in Love?
Bob McNutt, innocent Innocent,
reveals that you'll see this and
more if you attend the "Fare
well to Arms" ball Friday night.
Just what he meansfwe aren't

Residence halls for women at
the university will be operated for
students during the forthcoming
summer session and during the
academic year beginning In Sep
tember, according to present plans.
Chancellor C. S. Boucher, In re
sponse to inquiries, said today the
university has not received any
request for use of the dormitories
by the army, tho the university
advised army officials some
months ago that the facilities
could be available in the fall if
needed.
Have No Requests.
"We have at present no request
for the use of these dormitories
by the army and have no indica
tion that such a request will be
forthcoming," Chancellor Boucher
said.
"If the army should find that
it needs the dormitories, excellent
accommodations for women stu
dents could be provided in several
of the fraternity houses, operated
under the dean of women."
One floor of one wing of North
east hall was vacated some weeks
ago for use as an infirmary for
aircrew trainees on the campus,
but it no longer is being used for
this purpose.
Cover Creation Program.
The exhibit includes pictures
covering many phases of the
Naval Aviation Cadet Training
program. Before a cadet is desig
nated a Naval Aviator, the gov
ernment will have spent $27,000
in training him, will have given
him 350 hours under his safety
belt, and will have been training
him for a year and a half. These
pictures show a cross section of
this training.
