The Student Council, acting on the suggestion made bv a student early in the semester, has prepared a ques tionnaire on the Student Health Service. The university health service has been the obiect of much criticism on the part of students for the past several years. Hence, the council, in order to ascertain the "whats and whys" of this criticism, is asking students to state their reasons. The council is not seeking to discredit the present health service nor anyone attached to it, but it is trying to obtain a comprehensive report of student opinion on the present facilities. The questionnaire requests the dissatisfied stu dent to list SPECIFIC criticisms and suggestions for im provement. Students who have not used the health service as often as necessary are asked to give their reasons for not doing so. ' After finding out, thru the questionnaire, whether or not the majority of the students are satisfied with the pres ent service rendered by the Student Health, the council plans to use the results to approach the Student Health Service with a petition for improvements as indicated by the students in their criticisms and suggestions. The Student Health Service should welcome an in vestigation which will show whether or not the students are getting the maximum benefit from its service, and if not, indicate why. If the poll shows that the students are satisfied with the health service on campus, their bluff has been called, and future criticism will be filed in the waste basket. What could be fairer? M. G. The Plans Are Laid . . With the beginning of the new semester intra-group work on the much discussed miniature Peace Conference will swing into high gear. The executive and planning com mittees have been waist deep in pamphlets, indexes and hard work for the past month getting the foundations for the conference laid. Last week Barbara Stahl and Gerry McKinsey, chair man and vice chairman, respectively, of the executive com mittee, presented the plans for the conference to a group of faculty where it was enthusiastically received. The Chan cellor has set aside a fund for the purchase of reference material. The local papers have displayed a co-operative interest in the undertaking and press wires have carried news of the project thruout the country. Libraries have been set up in every organized house par ticipating in the conference and a room is to be set aside in the Union from which additional material will be dispensed. Complete bibliographies are not available to all committees and general countries, thanks to the efforts of Helen Laird and her co-workers. Committee chairmen will be schooled in the fundamen tals of drawing up resolutions and the committee meetings leading up to the plenary session will be held weekly, starting the first week in February. The executive committee, with the co-operation of the faculty, is contacting several well known internationalists who will address the sessions and it is possible that the state department will be able to send an official of the Dumbarton Oaks conference to speak at a convocation next month. This is a Nebraska project and the biggest publicity "getter" for the university since the Rose Bowl football team. The machinery has been set up by the inner-circle of the conference, the rest is in the hands of the partici pants. M.

Friend Morpheus is the forgotten man (or soon to De so anyway;, anu some body sent us two cartons of cigarets, so fooey! www Please, students and otherwise, be kind to the Ne- braskan this week. The staff is slightly messed up.

Besides which, Sports Editor Dick Dilsaver is taking off to be a sailor boy for Uncle Sam, so Fiji Chuck Peter son is playing with the sports page. The staff is going to miss Dick much. Besides giving us cigarets and buying us cokes, he provided no end of entertainment. Good luck, Richard. P. S. We walked into the Nebraskan office one day last week and there was our Dick, sitting in a big chair with one of those "cat who just ate the canary" expres sions on his face. His face, incidentally, was well covered with lipstick imprints, which might have had something to do with the expression! Dot i7i Beat, Jr, Just the thing for a pleasant tete a tete with a chic coed is the subtle, heartwarming Spike Jones record of "Cocktails for Two" on Victor's list this week. Opening with full orchestra and chorus, the verse accents the sweep of the strings, an occasional harp arpeggio, the fluid voices of the choir. But after the first line of the chorus, brother, watch out! Spike is the one person in mu sical America today who has been able to characterize the comedy in the average popular ballad. After luring you into his net with grandiose introduction, Spike turns loose the City Slickers or one of the grandest satires yet perpetuated by the Jones boys. The 'smoker's cough' which fol lows the line "While we enjoy a cigarette . . ."; the beautiful sound effect of a kiss being added to a cocktail which follows the line "With intoxicating kisses for the principal ingredient" these are the comedy touches which make Spike Jones' "Cocktails for Two" a great record. "Leave Those Dishes in the Sink, Ma" is the plattermate. Following upon the immediate success of Dinah Shore's "I Don't Know Why I Love You But I Do" released by Victor last month, the company announces two more tunes features in the lovely song stress' picture "Belle of the Yu kon." They are "Sleigh Ride in July" and "Like Someone in Love" sung by Dinah herself. Al bert Sach's orchestra again ac companies Dinah on this record, forming a stunning setting for la Shore. Coed Statesmen, Militarists Meet At Northwestern A.C.P. Churchill, Stalin and Eden will meet at Northwestern University, but without President Roosevelt, sometime during the next few weeks. Not the world famous statesmen, of course. But coeds bearing these names who have just registered at the univer sity for the second quarter now beginning. Other students with famous names who will be meeting on campus paths are Patton, Stilwell and Dewey, not to mention Goex ing, Hess and three Kaisers! Among names famous from Hollywood to the African jungles are Virginia Bruce, Frank Buck and Robert Burns. There is no Sinatra to charm the coeds, but there is a Crosby, Caruso, Wagner and Bach. There's a Love, but also a Love less. And two Toots and a Yonk, and a Peck and a Wack. Peez, Took, Somers, Suar sound like baby talk, but they're students, too, as are Luney and Batty. Students with presidents names are Hoover, Harding, Wilson, Taft, Harrison, Grant, Jackson, Bu chanan, Pierce and Adams. Names that go together are Long and Longest, Stout and Rotunda, Sweet and Low, Winter and Spring, and Black and White. Pick and Look are listed, and a Zoot but no suit. On the geo graphical side are London, Eng land, Ireland, Holland, Poland, Spain, Portugal, French and Eng lish. Oh yes, we almost forgot the Johnsons lead in number with 35, the Andersons are next with 30.
