How About That?
In last week's issue, our first, there appeared a small para
graph, "All those interested in working on this page," etc. We
didn't get the turn-out we needed
We realize that there is little free time given to the soldier
pttending school, and that the soldier wants to use whatever free
time he does have in his own way. We just thought that working
on a school paper might be "his own way."
12 Can Oo It.
It goes without saying that two men cannot possibly put out
even one good Army page a week and still have enough time for
' studies.. Eut ten or twelve men can put out two, possibly three
pages each week and, through 'cooperative effort, each still have
plenty of time and a lot of extra enjoyment to boot.
Therefore, the final decision as to whether the army is well
represented in our newly-adopted school or not, depends upon you
to'dlers. If we wish to attend school merely as an army unit and
r.ot hav? soundly-planned soldier-student activities very well then,
no army page. If, however, we wish to return as nearly as we can
to our former lives, we must be represented on the most important
of all single undergraduate extra-curricular activities the school
newspaper.
The invitation still stands to all those who -re interested.. En
gineers who are going on furlough ate asked not to procrastinate
until their return so that some organizational set-up. may be planned
upon their return. Come around to see either Marge" Marlette in the
ICebraskan office, located in the lower floor of the Student Union,
Eiu Calkins, or Harry Olesker, both in Room 402 at the Library.

Congratulating General John J.- Pershing on his eighty
third birthday, President Roosevelt said: "Today brings it for
cibly to miml that you wanted to po through to Berlin in
1!H8."
Many pirls have refused to join any of the auxiliary serv
ices, lhe'WAC, the WAVKS or the SPANS, because they are
ii f raid- that they will lose through their experience and asso
'tiat'ons the iialities of ladyhood they possess.
They are worrying unnecessarily because a girl who goes
into one of the services as a lady will come out a lady, lady
hood being an inner quality that is indestructible. Ladyhood
is unaffected by either environment or circumstances. A lady
ma v-iro anywhere and meet anv condition without being con-
tamini tid in the slightest degree.. She may be thrown into
association with men and women who are strangers to gen
tility and still keep her gentle approach to them and to life.
There is an appearance of ladyhood that is but a thin
veneer, possessed by girls and women who think it expedient
to show, but wbich'they drop when they are not on guard or
j.i!iinle. And that veneer, exposed to harsh conditions, may
r.sily be chipped off.
The girls need not worry about losing their ladyhood if
they enter any of the services. If they have it when ihey enter,
thev will come out with it. Alice Reynolds, writing in the Okla
homa City University Campus, entrusts ladies to the auxiliary
services.

In appearance, L'achael is a tall, brown
haired, brown-eyed woman of average build.
She has a slight peroxide streak in the top
of her hair and a nice smile. Forgetting to
speak to acquaintances on the campus is one
of her foibles.
Her list of honors is enough to stagger most
of us, but in the words of one of Bachael's
Tri Delt soioriiy sisters, "You'd never know
she was a big-shot from the way she acts. She's
a mighty good girl." Friends say that "Rao"
has a dominant personality, and her hat still
fits as well as ever! If past and present are
any indication, Kachael Ivock looks like a "gal
with a future."

This is the year for an all-out

is the time when all affiliations,

making every person on the cam

as their privilege, to have a pnrt
