"Do unto others " so goes
ve old saving and Chi Os Martha
Atkinson and Shirley Crosbie are
firm believers in it. It seems,
as the story goes, that Sig Nu
Harold llarshaw was ill for a few
days last week and the girls made
ud some cards to send him to
show that their hearts were in the
richt Dlace. To show his up
preciation a dozen red roses and
a box of sweets lor eacn gin ar
rived at the Chi O hcuse, followed
the next day by a costume pin for
each. Not bad must make a note
of this technique.
Looks as if Phi Delt Bob Creutz
has definitely broken relations
with the Chi O house for he has
been seen quite a bit lately with
Alpha Phi Jackie Lamberty
Needless to say. Brother Dick is
pleased.
The AOPi house had a small
riot Monday night when four girls
decided to do the honors, first
came the announcement of the
engagement of Phyllis Davidson
to Ensign Al Dunlap and then
the individual boxes of candy
passed by Colleen Kahoa, Hedy
Schultz and Pat Tobin all with
AST Ward Tuxner. A joke, need
less to say.
Note to an ATO: Sigma Nu
Ward Quilder and Chi O Helen
Plasters have definitely decided
to call the whole thing off.
"Jamie'" Back.
"Have I been away too long "
was the tune when KKG June
Jamieson, former UN student, ar
rived the other night to see SAE
Rick Steen.
New twosome: Sadie Hawkins,
Alpha Phi, was seen coking in
the Union Thursday night with
former Tau Les Murray, home on
leave from the air corps.
All gathered round, a song was
sung, and memories recalled Fri
day night when the gang got to
gether. Delts Lt. John Burnham,
back on leave, was with his usual,

The engagement of Miss Thyllis MaeN Davidson to Ensign George
Alan Dunlap was announced by her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ellis
Davidson. Miss Davidson is a pledge of AOPi. The officer was a
former student of the University of Nebraska.

along for the fun with KKG Ruth

Alpha Xi pledges have turned
vocalists. They have been visit
ing the various fraternity houses
to learn their songs.
Now it can be told what is
occupying so much of Phi Delt
Joe Kessler's time that he misses
all appointments. The guilty one
is Pi Phi Nancy Baker. More
power to her.
Another frequent twosome is
Tri Delt Barbara Strahn and foot
ball man "Buzz" Hollins. Past
that stage are Chi O Harriet
Quinn and Sig Ep James Binkerd,
who seem to have a mutual
understanding.
Phi Chain Gang.
Labor is scarce nowadays so
the Alpha Phi pledges devised a
new way of getting the yard work
done. They combined work with
pleasure by having dates over
Saturday afternoon to rake the
lawn and as an added enticement
dinner was served with a little
dancing to finish things up.
Dick Svoboda, Sigma Nu, and
Sig Chi Don Patterson, former UN
students, are back on the campus
this week Dick open for mvita
tion and Don to see pinmate Mary
Verink, Kappa.
Coeds have their problems some
small, some large. Frannie Baker,
Towne Club, is all involved in
one of the larger problems at
present the eternal triangle
which in this case involves a Pfc,
and a Lt. How about it, Frannie????

Miss Estevez hopes to be instru
mental in convincing the govern
ment, upon her return to Uruguay
next September, that home eco
nomics should be taught in all the
schools. After finishing her study
in this country she will resume
her teaching of economics in a
private school, the Crandon In
stitute of Home Economics.
Miss Estevez explained that her
greatest disappointment upon her
arrival in the States was the out
side appearance of the wooden
houses. In her country the houses
are made of concrete and cement,
while only the humblest homes

are made of wood. She expressed
great admiration for the interiors
of the North American homes, es
pecially the modern kitchens.
Another disappointment to the
Southern visitor is the race dis
crimination she found here. She
feels that the North Americans
are "standing against themselves
in their own country."
Girls in Uruguay, regardless of
their age, are not allowed to go
any place unless accompanied by
a chaperone, even if the chaperone
is only a sma'i child. No girl is
allowed on the streets after 9
o'clock at night without an escort
or chaperone.
Dances Are Popular.
Social gatherings and dances
in the homes of friends are prac
tically the only forms of enter
tainment and the only chance
girls have to meet young men.
Birthday parties are important
events attended by the young peo
ple and their parents and lasting
until Z or 3 in the morning. For
mal dances start between 11 and
12 and last until 6 or 7 in the
morning. At these they dance the
milonga which is faster than the
tango.
Eating habits also differ be
tween the two countries since in
Uruguay four meals are served a
day; breakfast, lunch, tea and
dinner with dinner served at 10
o'clock in the evening.
Miss Estevez was amazed at the
work capacity of the people in
this country and feels that they
work too hard. She-said, however,
that the Uruguayan people do too
much talking and not enough act
ing. She believes that North
Americans seek to better them
selves and do not have money as
their goal.
Nix and Nays
of Femivays
With the hour dance season
fast drawing to a close, a few re
marks on the conduct of all Ne
braska lassies would be only too
appropriate.
On the campus, in the organ
ized independent halls and the
Greek houses, the "co-ed" is the
height of graciousness. (Yes, that
is definite ! i !) She is a hostess.
and her social obligation is to do
all in her power to assure a good
time for all fellows. Girls do not
"put on the coy act" at such an
affair. It is the one time the
privilege is theirs they must
ask the young man to spin the
next recording with them. This
invitation not only includes the
tripping of the "light fantastic,
but includes enough conversation
to assure the ease of both parties,
and with the end of the dance,
the exchange of partners, involv
