Six military trainees have been

Union board. Including one man
from each AST company and an
aviation student from the Air
Corps CTD, the group will meet

wishes are aired, and the group

SO MANY MILES
By AS James L. Greene.
So many miles divide us now,
So many fields of green,
So many roads, so many towns,
Are scattered in between.
It seems as though I never could,
Reach out and touch your hand,
Although we two are still within,
The borders of this land.
So many fences, woods, and
streams,
Appear to bar the way,
And every hour seems to multiply,
The slowness of the day.
And yet each night when
I look up,
Into the starry sky,
I know that you are waiting, too,
For time to wander by;
And to each little silver star,
I throw a kiss or two,
And hope that they will hear
me pray,
And drop them down to you.

M7S
Now that each class has been
put in capable hands of our three
tactical non-coms, a new regime
threatens to rear its ugly head.
Naturally, each of our able ser
geants has, pledged that his class
or classes will be far superior to
the rest of the Aviation Student
body. Syllogistically (see Webster
or Kaplow-0'Neil--Ed.), this is an
impossibility and will, as far as
we can see, only lead to bloodshed.
Everyone (it says here on page 4)
has taken this new setup very
good-naturedly and the element of
competition should promote some
fine results. Class 11 and 12 in
accordance with their usual cata
strophic misfortune have drawn
Sergeant Beck for their "guiding
light" (Why Sergeant, of course
we're kidding!!!) Beck, in a meet
ing of the classes, made it known
that he'd be a most willing recipi
ent for all complaints or sugges
tions which anyone would care to
make. The sergeant went so far
as to secure a punch, and all cards
will be properly dealt with!!
We think a well-deserved bit of
praise should be thrown toward
348 s basketball team and the
great job they did last Saturday
night (we're referring to the came
of course). The team winch was
piacea on tne noor was the result
of a very short period of haphaz
ard practice. The practice cannot
be anything but thus, as the team
is composed of all the classes in
the detachment and consequently
uieir scneauies are incompatible.
Considering all the difficulties en-

In Cornliusker
The meeting of the military
staff of the Cornhusker Friday
afternoon revealed definite plans
fof the soldier's part in the 1944
edition of the yearbook. The com
mittee, composed of Herman Turk,
Co. A, Jack Baker, Co. B, Henry
Hoffstot jr., Co. C, Eddie De Silva,
Co. E. and M. P. Morehouse, Co.
F, met with Betty Hohf, had their
group picture taken, and arranged
the schedule for the pictures of
the UN trainees. A short bio
graphy of each man will be in
cluded, and their picture will be
put in the book by platoons.
All of the members of the board
have had some previous experi
ence working on college year
books. The photographing of the
men will start Monday afternoon,
with Company A leading off at 5
p. m.
countered, we think that the boys
did remarkably well in that initial
venture against a well-practiced
and smooth functioning Engineers'
team. Let's give an indication of
our appreciation by turning out
en masse and in lusty voice for
their next game.
Mr. Kaplow and Mr. O'Neil.
