Nu, has been assigned to duty at Moses Lake army
know what name to say hello to, nor what airfield, Wsh. A former overseas veteran with
name to answer hello to, any more.
Carried to extremes, this is the sort of
thing that results in long flowing black
cloaks, collars pulled up to conceal the
mouth and chin, and hat pulled down to
conceal eyes and forehead. And so few
noses are distinctive! This intense atmo
sphere of secrecy would naturally lead to
having classes during the night instead of
in the daytime, and then, then, when would
students go to the Turnpike?
Therefore, taking into due consideration
all these dire consequences, the Nebraskan
feels a solemn duty to put an end to the
free-for-all publishing of anonymous letters,
which represent the first, faltering step
toward the above situation of absurdity.
There are also a few other insignificant rea
sons for this editorial stand: Uusally anony
mous letters have a definite point to make,
and succeed more or less well to make it.
However, there are also crackpot letters.

LT. BILL SCHWARZ, class of '43 has been
awarded the air medal for "meritorious achieve

A navigator on a B-24 Liberator, he participated
in major attacks on enemy aircraft factories, oil
refineries, and other stratetgic targets in Romania,
Austria, Germany, Italy and France.
Les Said The Better
By Les Glotfelty
ing! The Nebraskan also feels strongly that
if a student believes in his ideas with enough
feeling to sit down and write a letter to the
editor, he should not only have, but want,
credit for his brain twisting. Nothing hap
pens to the writers of letterips; the staff
doesn't cut them in raw, bleeding bits and
stuff the raw, bleeding bits into Union gar
bage cans. It's unsanitary!
Actually we luff with a Slovic luff people
with guts enough to say what they think,
and fight for what they believe. We'll fight
with you. Or against you, but if we fight
against you, we guarantee freedom of the
press for the opposition. So, no more anony
mous letters, please!
Ye editor (trite phrase) said to fill up
approximately three and one-half inches.
but with what, she neglected to say. Any
how, one of the funniest things we've heard
of lately concerns Edith Pumphrey, busy
little beaver at ag.
It seems that Loomis hall at ag has a
regular initiation policy, which like some on
city campus, deals with "treating the fresh
ies rough." Edith, a junior, is very little
over five feet tall, and she took it upon
herself to give the first year girls a little
plebe treatment. So, between 7 and 8 one
dreary a. m., there were seven bedraggled
freshman coeds from Loomis marching with
more or less military precision up and down
in front of the Dairy Husbandry building,
dressed in definitely what the coed is NOT
wearing these days. Practically invisible be
hind the marching ranks was Pumphrey,
shouting her "hup, two, three, four" in true
top-sergeant style.
