Dear Editor:
Hubba.-Hubba, talk about Roomer. This university has
got it all over any army camp I was ever at. Ever since I
have went back to school, there is never nothing but
roomers about what is happening or is going to happen all
over the place.
Sometimes they is tru, to. I heard that Ellswurth Doo
Tell of the alums office was going to resine, and durned if
he didn't. Then i also heard that at the January meeting
of the Bord of Rejents that Mr. Boucher was going to re
sine. May be I can apply for the job of chanselor becuz
this place sur does need one that will reely bild up Nebraska.
Of course, I ain't in so solid with the commanding officurs
of the place.
And my girl Slippy has been telling me some mor
roomers that in't so to good. She (Slippy) says that the
deen of woman is going to pass some mor rools for the cow
eds at Nebraska, as if they ain't got too many allready. She
(Slippy) says that the deen of woman is going to make
some rools that the girls on the kampus cant be in the lawns
of the man's houses untill after five clock in the afternune
and that the men cant be on the lawns of the girls house
until after five o'clock in the afternune either. And she
(Slippy) says besides that the deen is going to make a root
that no girls cant have appointments with no men on weak
nights, and by gum, I have got to see her (Slippy)) more
offen than on strong nights which only cums at the end of
ever weak.
The consitootion says that no one cant be depraved of
life, liberty or the pursoot of happiness without do process
of law, and I will be durned if I can see how the deen is do
process of law. Me and her (Slippy) is just pursooing a
little innosent happiness on weak nites and it ain't right for
anywon to take it away from us. I been told that the WSA
bord is the won that makes the rools for the women, but i
gess they is only the top sarjunt and that they has a c. o.
ever them to ishue the artikles of war.
I gess the cow-eds is going to haf to organize to stand
up for her rites or else they is going go to haf to be in at
five clock every day and that sur is going to be tuff on the
pursoot of happiness, but i gess that cow-eds just isn't
suposed to have any life, liberty or pursoot of happiness in
linkon.
And then their is mor roomers, too, but i gess they is
just latrine gossip.

(OaisL Monday.
BY ELLIE SWANSON.
False alarms are prevalent on
this campus. For this reason one
should never become unduly
alarmed when panic-mongers
spread malicious scandal which is
more likely than not to be untrue.
However, there is always a
chance that something will de
velop from this wicked chatter, so,
rather than have a hideous doom
descend upon the campus without
any forewarning, The Ne
braskan wishes to make the fol
lowing statement. THE AWGWAN
MAY COME OUT MONDAY.
Humor???
The Awgwan, for the benefit of
those not already schooled in this
tragedy, is a humor magazine?
We presume that if "it" is pushed
upon us Monday, it will undoubt
edly contain drollery equal to last
month's issue. The so-called staff
frightens us withthe ominous
news that "Tripammer Peepash,"
"Samuel Pepsin," and George
Tierney Shestak will continue
their presumptious observations of
campus habiture.
This admonition, we hope, is
enough. We have slight faith that
it will appear Monday, but if it
does, don't say you weren't
warned.

Collapse in a comfortable chair, friends, then
light a cigarette and relax while I swing the doors
cf Navy Hall.
The atomic bomb has not yet assumed the im
portance for NRO students that the bulletin board
has. We struggle to reach it between classes. We
kick aside bodies, which have been trampled on
in the rush, in order to cast our eyes on the most
astounding news ever printed. People lose sleep
composing some of the more "amazing" notices.
We expect anything, and are seldom disappointed.
The discussions of these groups that continually
gather around are intelligent and cover a large
range of subjects . . . everything from girls to
sororities. . .
One of the boys found a bottle of "rare musty"
vine in his locker a few nights ago, but he still
contends that it wasn't his ... I believe you
Harold . . . and thanks. . .
She's red-headed and glamorous . . . her name

has a song received as much publicity by the ex

LETTERIP
Miss Leslie Glotfelty
Nebraskan Office
Student Union
Dear Leslie:
This verbal bouquet is a trifle belated, but none
the less sincere. I had intended writing you at
the very beginning of the week to tell you what
a grand job The Nebraskan, the Tassels, the cheer
leaders and the student body did to make the 1945
Homecoming one of the most thrilling and one of
the biggest in many years.
A rather heavy schedule of events delayed this
writing, but I am now taking the opportunity to
commend you and the student body for the in
spiring demonstration of student spirit that pre
vailed over the campus last week. The rallies, the
parades, the singing, the cheering, could not help
inspiring the team to go out there and win a
game for the students, for the university and for
Nebraska. They did just that and to them, also,
must go a "snappy" salute.
Cordially yours,
E. F. DuTeau
National Secretary
Director of Alumni Activities
Beethoven. . . Dick Preeby, featured trumpeter
with the NRO band, is beginning to feel "that

the lovely blonde. Bonnie this week and claims

her anymore. . . That probably has happened be

TELEPHONE CIRCUITS
With wire scarce and wartime calls increasing,
telephone engineers made existing pairs of long
distance wires carry nearly four times as many
calls as before. This was done through installa
tion of additional carrier equipment, requiring
closer spacing of the wires on the line and trans
positions at shorter intervals.
Three pairs on the Southern Transcontinental
Route were rearranged, and in a 430-mile section
this had to be done w hile keeping the urgently
needed wires in service all the time. To do this,
new tools and new methods had to be devised
in the laboratories and on the job.
This is another among many examples of how
Bell System teamwork and engineering skills
maintained telephone service under wartime
conditions.
