Let's Face It . .
The pressing need for women in all
branches of the armed services is manifested
more each day as countless posters,
speeches, and newspaper writings urge our
young women to answer the call to the
colors.
Yet in spite of the obvious need for more
women in uniform and the untold advan
tages gained through experience and train
ing, quotas remain far from filled and the
need for enlistments grows desperate as the
date for the coming invasion draws near.
Except for women directly affected by
the war in that they have husbands,
brothers, or fiances fighting overseas, most
women seem more interested in taking over
jobs left vacant by the draft, at tempting
salaries than they do in directly helping our
boys to come home sooner. True, our boys
on the other side must have the materials of
war to use against an enemy who is far
from being beaten, and these materials must
be made in the plants and factories of our
country. However, planes, tanks, and guns
must have with them the courage and
strength of the men in the armed services
to make them of any worth to us in this
greatest hour of our peril.
This, then, is where the women of the
country come to the fore. The paper work
clerking, typing, filing, communication work
all of these things are as necessary to the
running of a great army as the actual fight
ing. Someone must do it . . .
Have we got what it takes to help?
The Utah Chronicle
Hell and High Water
By Us Glotfelty
This, and the days to follow, are days
when anything at all can happen to the Ne
braskan. Managing ed Pat Chamberlin had
other irons in the fire yesterday so sports
ed "Andy" Andersen took over the desk.
Then, reporter J. P. Miller took the sports
desk, and the news eds took three deep
breaths and waited to see what would hap
pen. These millions of lieutenants around the
campus do some funny things. One of the
best is a little incident that happened Friday
night. Two dorm freshmen had big dates
with a couple of gold bar boys. After having
dinner and dancing for a while, the looeys
invited their dates to come up to their room
in tho Lincoln hotel for some refreshment.
Being good little proteges of Dean Boyles and
AWS, the coeds politely reiusea, wnereupua
tVio o-onrlAmnnlv . lieutenants took the
chagrined women back to the dorm front
in- and loft them at 10 D. m. It is that
sort of thing that is hard on the home
front morale.
Modern Dance Recital
Reveals Originality
Tnt for the ride: Ot)en house at the Ne

the files, so the doors to it were forcibly
removed and its contents lay exposed for

were looking for The engineers still look

BY OLD-HAND
Dancing in one's bare feet was
A A.J
once considered. out, or mm
world" or slightly unusual, but
Orchesis, the modern dance group
nn th mmriiis. has been pushing
the vogue courageously for some
years now. Tiaay nigm urenra
again presented its annual recital
to an audience of 500 now accus
tomed, and, what is more, appre
ciative and enthusiastic persons.
Twenty coeds who have been re
hearsing since the first of March
gave a recital of modern dance
techniques and original composi
tions under the sDonsorship of Dr.
Aileen Lockhart of the women's
physical education department and
the WAA council. ne
passed since early recitals in
which audiences watched serious
coeds do angular gyrations in
terpretative of far-in-the-future
worlds. And costumes have
changed from severe black leo
tards and skirts to bright attrac
tive garb.
Commend Novel Ideas
Instead, there was color and fine
liphtirur nnd sensitive portrayals
of novel ideas: for example, "The
Tp Dance." a charmine dance in
which the worried hostess survives
a hectic afternoon of flighty gos
sipy females. Doromy jean crown,
the club's president, took the lead
as the hostess and revealed a good
maraa nt wimedv. "Moonshine." a
highly entertaining dance of bar-
tenders turning nuanous, wM
popular. "Chinese" reveaiea a
portrait of a mandarin being en
tertained by his picturesque en
tourage. "The Donkey" revived an
old folk tele and involved the
entire membership of the club m
an amusing, colorful depiction.
Outstanding Solos.
Outstanding in solo work were
June Critchfield in a "Gigue," a
swift moving gay dance, ana Jac
queline Young m -ine miesi,
especially appealing in her version
of "boogie-woogie. As explana
tions and reviews of technique,
"Moderniana' 'and "Daily Dozens"
were illuminating.
Beyond this reviewer's grasp
were "Meditation" and "Compro
mise," a little vague for the com
prehension of the layman. All
credit should be given to accom
panist Pia Wertheimer Gilbert for
her skillful improvisation and to
assistants Lela Mae Jacobsen,
Mary Alford and Shirley Premer.
The industry and perseverenee of
the entire personnel is commendable.

Herring Asks
Latin-America
Understanding
In our dealings with the Latin
American nations, we must re
spect them, and be realistic and
imaginative at the same time, ac
cordin to Hubert Herring,
speaker at the university convoca
tion Friday in the Union.
"We don't understand the Latin
Americans and they dont under
stand us." said Mr. Herring; "and
we nml their understanding: for
our own security."
America should look to herself
first in trying to perfect democ
racy. The only perfect democracy
is in Costa Rica, was Mr. Her
ring's opinion.
Advocates Neighbor Policy.
"The good neighbor policy be
gan in 1927 when Coolidge sent
Dwight Morrow to Mexico as our
amhassador to avert the threat
of war. Mr. Morrow did improve
relations with Mexico. He is an
example of the fine type of men
who should be appointed as am
bassadors," said the speaker.
Herring is one of the liberal ex
ponents of the "good neighbor
nolicv." He has taken more than
40 trips to the southern republic
and has been director of wib inter
national conferences in Mexico,
Guatamala. and the countries of
the Caribbean. At present he is
director of the committee on cul
tural relations with Latin Amer
ica, Inc., Claremont, Calif.
