It has happened and again!
What is it? FACTIONS!
There is a visible change on the
campus, this campus ruled by
women. No longer is there a
Greek and Barb faction, but to
day facing the student body are
two distinctly and divided groups
of women. Kach group includes
both Rarhs and Greeks and con
tests of all Ncbiaska women.
Politics do not enter into the
requirements for membership.
There is only one requirement
needed to put you into one faction
and out of the other. When this
requirement Is met, it automati
cally changes the faction group
followed by the individual girl.
The requirement? A diamond
ring. The factions? To Have and
Not To Have.

Recently there was a convoca
tion scheduled for the Union ball
room. A local editor was speaking
on his recent tour of England. The
convocation had to be moved to
the faculty lounge because ap
proximately 40 persons attended
This is typical of most university
convocations. A coke in the grill
is apparently much more pleasing
to the majority.
Nebraska is the exception rather
than the rule in the lack of inter
est shown the five or six convoca
tions scheduled yearly. Students in
most universities take themselves
seriously enough to believe that
by attending convocations they
broaden themselves and add one

It's been said before, "Where's
Nebraska's spirit?" But this time
it doesn't mean shouting at ral
lies or supporting the gridiron
squad on Saturday. Now the
phrase applies to those hard
fought basketball games in the
coliseum.
Cornhuskers play hard at foot
ball with only mediocre backing
from the stands, but they skid
along the wood floor, sweat thru
their jerseys, receive physical in
juries - with only a handful of stu
dents dotting the bleachers and
backing them all the way as they
dribble toward the basket.
Basketball is a major university
activity, as is football. The bas
keteersTight just as hard for the
qlory of a win for the university.
Now it's time for the students to
show their buried school spirit by
attending UN's basketball con
tests and shouting for the boys on
the floor.

There's a restaurant down in
Texas, says the Readers' Digest,
which Is currently advising its
patrons to "make their reserva
tions early for the Feace Day
night celebration." There've been
a lot of New Year's speeches by
Churhcill, Roosevelt, Smuts, and
Marshall prophesying the end of
World War II in 1944. University
students therefore returned to
school after vacation confident
that this year they would dance
at a FORMAL VICTORY ball.
But Berlin and Tokio have not
yet been invaded nor bombed to
surrender.
So while that private is lighting
overseas to make that peace day
night celebration as early as pos
sible, there're a few things we can
do here to hurry things up: Study
yes, study, for books are our
weapons just as a bazooka is his;
buy a war stamp or two every now
and then (the fourth war loan
drive is coming on); wrap band
ages for the Red Cross, write
letters like mad, and see that the
Daily has his APO number or
camp address so that he will re
ceive the bi-monthly Servicemen's
Edition, and keep our own morale
up (down with the Blue-Gripe
sessions). The more we do at home
to help, the sooner we'll need our
1944 Victory ball reservations.
By the way, do you have yours?

the Herbert Brownell science edu
cation scholarship fund asked that
his name not be made public. He
is a former student of the late
professor of science education in
teachers college.
"The gift will contribute ma
terially for building the fund to a
size where it will support the
scholarship program without ren
ame on annual cash contribu
tions," Mr. Branch said.
Conttibutions from former stu
dents of the popular and widely,
known teacher have been a major
factor in support of the fund.
