UN Department Contains
Keys To Every Lock
By Mildred Quick.
Big keys little keys middle

campus. The university's key de
partment on the second floor of
the Administration building con
tains a key for every campus
building supply drawer and
equipment locker and the records
of the duplicate keys which are
now held by faculty and students.
The distribution of keys does
not extend only to present stu
dents and faculty, for the depart
ment has record of keys still held
by students of 10 and 12 years
ago. Harold C. Potter, construction
engineer, who takes care of key
files and records calls attention
to this fact and points out that
persons holding keys which they
do not need now could receive
their deposit refunded by mail if
they would return the key.
Deposit.
All keys taken out now require
a one dollar deposit, which is re
funded at the time the key is
returned If a key Is lost the
holder must pay 50 cents. A
broken key will be replaced by
the department ee of charge,
Mr. Potter stated. Students often
take their keys down town for
duplication and pay for the work
which the university would do
free of charge.
Busy time of the year for the
department comes at the begin
ning and end of semesters, but
keys are constantly being dis
tributed for new lockers and
equipment drawers which stu
dents acquire at various times
thruout the semester. A student
may obtain a key for a locked
drawer in a university building, if
he has written permission to enter
from the head of the department
where the locked door is located.
Keys, which a student or fac
ulty member has had for a specific
room or locker during the year
or semester, need not be returned
at the end of the school year if
the person intends to use the same
facilities the coming semester.

keeping for the 'apartment will

and he achieved many high mo
ments during the play.
The dignified, middle-aged Mr.
Miller was handled magnificently
by Dean Graunke, who, in
"Twelth Night," his only previ
ous appearance on the Temple
stage, showed his acting ability.
Despite the fact that Mr. Graunke
is not too easily heard in the back
rows, he adapts himself very well
to character rolls.
June Cast, though occasionally
assuming a slight Irish interpre
tation of her part, proved herself
an excellent actress as she not
played, but lived the role of Mrs.
Miller.
School Teacher.
Dorothy Duxbury, as Aunt
Lillie, did an exceedingly good
job of portraying the old, maid
school teacher. With a near tear
ful approach to most occasions,
she handled O'Neill's character
with an over-active lachrymal,
very well.
Keeping right in tune with the
the key, suggested Potter. If the
holder finds that he does not need
the key later, he may return it at
that time and his deposit will be
returned.
Take Note of the Moral in This Story
If You, Too, Are Having Exam Trouble
By Ellie Swanosn.
I found out something this
morning thati nterested me highly,
As we were walking to class
under torrents of extremely wet
rain, my roommate suddenly
picked our umbrella from the
sidewalk and replaced it in my
tightly clenched fist. "What are
you trying to do," I screamed ir
ritably, "wake me up?" "You
know, Ellie," she answered apolo
getically, "you really should stop
playing bridge until three every
morning. You can do that in two
weeks as much as you want to
"The way you talk, one would
think we were getting out of
school in two weeks, I mumbled.
letting the umbrella fall from my
hands once more. "We are.
"Oh."
Freedom in Two Weeks.
It was about two hours later
that I screamed wildly and jabbed
the girl sitting next to me in Eng
lish. "We're getting out of school
in two weeks!" "No kidding," she
sneered. "That means we'll have
finals next week," I surmised.
She nodded lightly and I suddenly
picked up a pencil and began tak
ing notes on the English lecture.
"I beg your pardon," I said meekly
nudging her again, "but what
have we been studying this se
mester?" "Why didn't somebody tell me,"
I cried to myself as I reached
chapter two in some book that I
hadn't opened all semester. The
room was disgustingly quiet, and
the clock, as near as I could tell,
read 2:55. There were fifteen
chapters left to go. By 4:20 I had
read to the middle of chapter five.
"I'm really making progress," I
beamed to myself, "Now if I could
only remember what I've read."
Leaving School a Solution?
The whole situation is a trifle
discouraging, I thought as the
alarm tolled seven. "Could you
get credit for a subject of you left
school before the finals?" I asked
my roommate with new courage.
"Not unless you're going in the
army," she answered. "How old
do you have to be to join the
WACs?" "Twenty-one, I think,"
she said, "and besides, that's a
coward's way out" "You're right,"

I declared, squaring my shoulders,
"and anyway I'm not twenty
one." And so it will go until finals are
over and I barely scrape through
if I'm lucky. Next year it's going
to be different, I will promise my
self as I pack my bags, fully real
izing that I have been making my
self that promise for about thir
teen years now. The moral of the
story, however, is this . . . Be

excellent quality of the play, the
supporting rast for "Ah, Wilder
ness!" did a fine job. Outstanding
among those characters were Rex
Coslor, as the small but pompous
David McComber; Mimi Hahn,
who played Belle, the chorus girl,
with a good characterization of
blase seduction, and Roma Rohn,
as Norah, the Millers' maid, who
achieved, during the perform
ance, a fine Irish brogue.
Supporting: Cast
Other players were Howard
Rosenberg, as Arthur, the Millers'
son; Ann Marie Proper as Mil
dred, their daughter; Jeff Segar,
as Tommy, another son; Eleanor
Dent as Muriel McCombeT, Rich
ard's high school sweetheart; Wil
liam Mohr as Wint Selby, a class
mate of Arthur's; W. H. Denning,
a bartender, and Robert Wheeler,
a salesman.
"Ah, Wilderness!" as a whole
thrived upon touching comedy.
The story is about the Millers, an
average American family, whose
problems concern their oung
son, Richard, and his radical
ideas. In rebellion against his
age, Richard gets drunk with a
fast woman in a dive, and there
fore is heavily frowned upon by
his parents. Everything is finally
Dr. Elder Will Address

Dr. Albert Elder, director of re

Nebraska Section of the American
Chemical Society Friday night at
7:30 p. m. at the Avery Labora

the Union will precede Dr. El

Special merit should go to all
crew members who created sets,
props, costumes, make-up and
lighting for "Ah, Wilderness!"
These students, under the direc
tion of Max Whittacker, worked
hard, and the rseults showed It.
The typical life of the early 1900's
