Fable of the Stued Council.
Have you ever heard about the
Stueds?
The Stueds were a lot of people
living together who were pretty
smart. They had a sort of Head
Group that made sure everything
they did was all right. They made
the laws and controlled the ac
tivities of the Stueds.
Now one year when all the little
boy Stueds were away at war,
all the little girls found them
selves in an awful predicament.
The Head Group was being run
by two girl Stueds, each of whom
were afraid that the other one
would get by with something she
shouldn't. So instead of giving
the other one a chance each girl
Head kept everything to herself
and didn't do anything.
"Do Something."
That year more little girl Stueds
than ever wanted to "do some
thing," and of course so did the
were all kinds of chances to help
the War. Bond sale drives, scrap
drives, soldier dances and many
other things were needed. But as
the year progress nothing was
done by the Stued Council, one
girl head said that there wasn't
any need, and the other said no
one wanted it. By December they
both decided it was too late to do
anything about it.
The school year went on the
Stueds were thought of as being
silly and wasters because they
didn't help with the war effort.
A few Stutds tried to organize
some dances and rallys, but there
was no one to tell everyone that
it was o.k. Then later the Stueds
all got to be play-children and did
nothing but waste time.
Nobody Missed Them.
At the end of the year no one
seemed to miss the Head Group
because they were all having a
grand time doing nothing. The
only people who didn't like it were
the Deans who were in charge of
the little Stueds. They decided
that if the Stueds couldn't get
together and work for things that
were necessary they would have
to be told what to do.
The next year there wasn't any
Stued Council at all. The little
Stueds were told what to do and
didn't have anything to say about
it. Each had to do so much extra
work every day. They couldn't
have fun because they weren't al
lowed to plan it and worse yet
there was no one who knew how
to make a good Stued Council
again. Eventually all the activi
ties of the little boys and girls
were controlled by the Deans of
the Stueds and all the Stueds
had to do with study.

Lots of gore floating about the
campus today. But sometimes I
have the darnedest trouble with
this conscience of mine. Little
voice keeps saying, "Ah, ah, ah.
Better not." When I have these
attacks, I sit a couple of hours
with my elbows on my typewriter;
then I take the little voice by its
wave length, shove it into the
closet, 'and lock the door.
So today, we have before us the
story about one of our English
profs who every morning greeted
an erring little girl who popped
into the room at exactly 8:01
with these words:
"Nice stage entrance today."
One morning he said, "All the
rest of the class are here. Your
entranmce is quite effective this
entrance is quite effective this
Said the erring one, "Yes, we're
both playing to a full house to
day." But on to the news of the hour
you might say of the year in
this case . Kappa, TNC, and
beauty queen Virginia Ford is
soon to trod the aisle with one Lt.
Walter Gunther of the Air Corps
stationed at Winfield, Kan. The
news comes as a surprise to most
of the campus accustomed to see
ing "Gin" and ATO Perry Fuller
hunting the Grill together. Con
dolences to Perry, Nebraska, and
me. Ever since I saw "Ginny" in
that freshman poly sci class well
I have had my hopes.
Romance behind the footlights.
That's the deal so far as Betty
Heine, last year's queen of the
University theatre stage, and Joe
Zimmerman, director, are con
cerned. They are staging a wed
ding soon and the props aren't
make believe.
There Are Pins and Then
There Are
Pins are favorite topics of con
versation among the women these
days, I guess. Fraternity pins and
hair pins every gal seems to
want them. After watching a
couple of co-eds gaze with av.v ct
a pre-war-made hair pin t'other
day. I decided to bribe my kid
sis into pilfering one of my moth
er's. Then I'd give the much de
sired hair pin to my girl if I
had a girl.
Some gals, though, are collect
ing fraternity pins as my news
sources inform me. Edna Mae
Niedermeyer, Chi O, has the pin
of Lt Dick Holmes. Two Chi O
pledges are right in their pitch
ing too. Jerry Neumeyer has the
pin of an Iowa State Beta, and
Jeanette Stewart, the one of a
Stanford DelL
Pi Phi Mary Louise Goodwin
isn't wearing it but people will
talk, and they are saying that
Doughboy Johnny Bauermeister
left his pin with her for safe
keeping last June.
But back to pins and diamonds.
Gibby Edwards, Tri Delta, fed the
girls candy Wednesday night an
nouncing her engagement to Nor
man Kolk of Sioux City.
And before I leave you. Just
one more thing. Looks like more
romance brewing in the Tri Delt
house as Sam Bates, former DU
back on the campus for a few
days, is spending his time camp
ing on the doorstep of Jane
Stroud.

Loses Pants
Many things happened to the
men while on the island. Among
the instances was the case of one
of his buddies getting the front
sight of his automatic rifle blown
off, Jim getting his pants half
torn off by the concussion of a
bursting bomb, his battalion being
shelled by mortar fire which
scored many direct hits, and his
almost being strafed by his own
P-38's because his outfit had
reached "Coolie Point" a day
ahead of schedule. Jim thought
the worst part of the whole terri
ble ordeal was the time that four
heavy cruisers, one battle wagon,
and ten destroyers fired around
100,000 shells and bullets Into
their positions. Every time a 14
inch shell exploded the roof of his
dugout lifted high enough so that
he could sec the palm trees out
side. In Jim's opinion, shelling is
much worse than bombing.
Soon after that shelling Jim
Chadderdon was taken off the is
land in a hospital plane. After
spending months in as many as
seven different hospitals making
recovery from concussion, shock,
and malaria, he was given a medi
cal discharge and sent home. Ne
braska is the only place on earth,
according to Jim.

Jim has just one request to
make of the people back here in
the States, and you can bet that
it is not propaganda in his mind
when he asks folks to "Buy more
