Give a Toy . . .
In Friday's Daily Nebraskan was an article by a wan
tleriti" reporter who asked the question ofjnany campus cele
brities, 'Is there a Santa (Mans.1 '
Answers to Ihis questiot'i were varied, but the negative
reply carried off the majority of beliefs.
Here in college, students have outgrown ihe hatiiriiif' of
the liosc before the fireplace in hopes tli.it St. Nicholas soon
will be there stae. but ihese blase tlisbelievers can help to re
lain the naive delight of children who know that there is a
jolly old gent w10 fills up their stockings w ith toys.
Yes. there is a Santa Mans, lie is 1hc spirit of cheer and
trivinr. lit' is the symbol of sharing.
Stinlents are being given a chance to help in creating this
mythical individual famous for his long white beart and jolly
laugh. They can help to make Santa's tremendous job easier
by contributing ' the products which are in the greatest de
mand toys.
War Council's committee "On the Beam" is conducting a
campus "Toy for Joy" Drive. Students are asked to con
tribute used as well as new toys to the dr ive.
Blow off the dust on some of those boxes stored away in
Ihe attics filled with delightful messengers of joy which have
served their purpose in a house full of grown-ups. Uncover
those boxes full of memories of childhood and help theni to
build up memories for t lie "good little boys and girls" who
deserve to receive their reward and who seek Ihe joy of pos
sessing a tov.

needs pictures of Husker gals to
lift his morale, then far be it
from us patriots to refuse his
charming request.
Think of the Joy.
Just think of the fun hell have
opening package after package to
gaze at the unsurpassable beauty
of Nebraska coeds, and think how
envious the other fellows in the
341st bomb group will be. Who
knows, we, the soldier's dreams,
may deceive the Congressional
Medal of Honor for outstanding
patriotism to our country, if we
undertake this noble feat.
And besides, imagine this poor
fellow's plight, stuck out there
among the jungle savagesses for
two years. No wonder he is dwell
ing under the illusion that a Ne
braska gal's picture will lift his
morale. Perhaps, if we send him
our pictures, he will come down to
earth and realize he isn't so bad off
after all, among those Indians.

She began her college career as freshman

minor. Betty workei.l on
member of the Co-ed Counselor
Board, YWCA cabinet; and as
historian for Mortor. Board.
She's a past Tassel I. "Just a

herself. As the crowning
glory the blonde bomber be
came a part of the "Who's
Who" for American colleges.
Betty says, "I guess that's all."
But that isn't all. She has a double major in
dietetics and institution management. And to
top that, off, she lacks one semester of having
a major in chemistry. Oooooh. but that's still
not all for this gal.
In her "spare" time she choices an easy re
laxing hobby like sewing "sewing diesses
particularly," via Betty. Who else says that
that's relaxing? But in here somewhere goes a
certain pin-mate, Jim Wegener, who is an
ASTB dental student and a member of ZIP.
When Jim won a stocking girl at the Christ
mas Ball, Bett said. "That was fine." One
wonders, however, which one of the three of
them, Betty, Jim, or Stocking (lirl got a head
ache first.
Betty's favorite "bests'' are dancing ami
.swimming. And if this isn't all, this is certain
ly enough, for one little Mortor Board.

There are theme songs and
theme songs but "Time on My
Hands" is certainly not the theme
of some few gals on the campus
this week end. Ensign Merrill
Englund, former Kappa Sig Inno
cent, is home from Guadalcanal
to see Jean Cowden, ChiO . . . En
sign Paul Pooley, Beta from Iowa
State, is with pinmate ChiO Gerry
Neumeyer for the Christmas holi
days . . . Lt. Aubrey Pettit, Kap
pa Sig, is back from Benning
keeping Alpha Phi Dorothy Huff
man busy. And one ChiO Jean
Potadle left the campus this week
end to see hometown pinmate Phi
Gam Emmet Pipher, home on
leave.
And speaking of home towns
and stuff, we learn that Lt. Ward
Freeman, Phi Gam, gave a dia
mond to a home town girl. Nice
goin'. Ward! And then speaking
of diamonds, Theta Alice Mc
Campbell received one of same
from Kappa Sig Ren Buchacek,
which definitely sews up one of
those most stable romances.
Some people really get around
in a day Take, for instance, ZBT
Bernie Kaplow, with Georgianne
Manifold at noon and with SDT
Charlotte Musson at the ZBT
party at night. On the other hand
there is phenomenal news of peo
ple actually staying pinned, as
ATO Tom Dvorak.
Deals and deals: Kappa Mary
Verink now is wearing the Sigma
Chi pin of Don Patterson; Ruth
Korb, KKG, is no longer wearing
her Beta pin; Sigma Nu Wan!
Quilter and Kappa pledge Margie
George are now going steady.
Barbara Blackburn was with Lt.
Frank Miller at the Kappa house
party at which were also June
Korb and ATO Jerry Jacupke.
Polly Peterson and AST Jack
Ziegler and Mickey JarrelJ with
George Abbott.
Just Around!
Piking it Saturday night were

B. J. Leadley and Gene Purtzer
and Lorraine Beckenauer, KKG
pledge . . . ATO Bill Korff and
Sunny Sonneland were taking in
Theta Toyland ... AST Larry
Paul, Delt from Michigan, was

Lofink.
Phi Gams with furloughs were
seen in great numbers. Art
Schmale and Jack Artman . . .
Gus Swanson around with Jean
Ann Donley, Delta Gamma . . .
and of course, Gordon Jenkins con
templating going to Omaha for
some excitement (but incidentally,
he admits that there is even less
of that in Akron, O.)

pendous." The show will be presented in
