DAILY NEBRASKA
Union station with all their be
weren't too tired (running) by
spring we should easily scoop the
Big 6 track meets.
After their unadulterated diet
of pure water and only water
over the week-end, the girl rushees
are all headed for the Choo Choo
Omega house wher they furnish
salt with it the water, we mean.
While we're dribbling along It
should be more than emphasized
that the new limitation on the
size of chapters (tor girls) will
decide which Is stronger: the
claims of the alumni's backward
darling or the glamor of the gal
without a legacy. There will be
several slightly stunned dears from
both sides of the fence. I think
one little gal can be quoted as
calling her inheritance, "blessed
little edge."
Honest?
While you're reading this you
must realize that the only reason
such stuff goes to press Is eithei'.
because: there wasn't enough ad-
vertising, or Chamberlin wanted
some sleep Saturday night.
If you want to know what va
rious people think of the student
council set-up, lnter-fraternity or
ganization, and why the civies art
glad the soldiers are confined on
Friday night, tune In again
otherwise we'll have to get guys
like Faytinger to write those aw

off came when they did take the
exam and were pronounced "the
healthiest men I've seen for three
years." And four more sceptics
Well, here's another qulck-ee
I'll admit it's not so hot,
I'll dedicate it to you civilians,
For a civilian, I am not.
I used to go to Nebraska,
And I used to leaf all day,
But, now, I do things different,
I do it, the "Navy way."

They work you all day long
It's great life If you don't
weaken,
But for God's sake, why be
strong?

We get up bright and early,
Near 5:45 on the nose
The first time I went ou there
I really, damn near froze.
We exercise quite briskly,
It is done by the light of the moon
If you'd do all things they tell
you,
They'd keep you there till noon.
Next we go to ohow line,
By this time it's 7 o'clock,
Get eggs, nearly every darn
morning,
Guess they have plenty on stock.
After this, it's "prepare for In
spection," The words that I'll never forget,
I clean my room every morning,
But I've never passed one yet.
The rest of the day is your free
time,
You spend it just as you like,
Go to classes, then swimming,
then jude,
Then boxing, next wrestle then
hike.
Time is also given to the drill
field,
"Chin in, chest out, eyes front,"
All seems to be going quite
smoothly,
Then it's "get in step, you runt!"
Now this gives a rough idea,
Of why this life is so fine,
What time you have left over,
You spend it, waiting in line.
And now, my chicks, I must leave
you,
For back to my station I must
trod,
I know you feel like they all do,
"Well, he's gone, what relief,
Thank God!"
Sez You!
Wasn't it surprising that there
was anything left of the Mortar
Boards after they got through
with the battle of "Union Par
lors" the question was who got
the end of the reception line. The
odds were 10 to 1 that every
other man would run as it turned
out the boys were still so scared
they had to be carried off. Some
one started the rumor that "Chan
cellor" means the same thing it
did in Germany the freshman
men were to be shot out of can
nons for evading the draft and
girls conscripted for cleaning Unl
versitas buildings.
And of course Leonard Dunker
(law grad believe or don't) saw
the line going out on to R Btreet
and thought they were finally sell
ing brew in the grill. After six
hours he woke up while meeting
Dean Thompson who wished him
luck for the next seven years. An
other interesting sight of the week
was fraternity men attempting to
obey the new rushing and piedg
ing rules If anyone was attempt
ing. Keeping within the law was
like avoiding a crowd while hand
ing out dollar bills.
Come Live with Us.
The best coincidence was when
men from one of the houses ac
costed an "already pledged" fresh
man in front of the Coliseum on
Friday and asked him If he had
found any place to stay while at
school. After 15 minutes of extoll
ing the virtues of Vina Chi the
brothers were stopped snort by
"I'm staying at the best, the Phi
Bigs." Did you ever see a mair
