So you think that U. N. is
crowded, heh?? Well, you have
Brothers in sorrow. All over the
Country, universities are filled to
bvcrflowing, and in some cases,
us here in Lincoln, are overflow
ing. Out beyond the Rockies on the
balmy shores of the Pacific, the
University of California reports
20,538 students .about twice the
size of Nebraska. A tremendous
majority of these are undergrad
uates, in fact 17,000 of them.
3,000 at Creighton.
Creighton University, GO miles
away, has registered over three
thousand, their top enrollment
since 1878. Seventy-five percent
of the Creighton students are ex
GI's. At Iowa Slate, the housing sit
uation is going from bad to worse.
Forty new trailers dotted the vet
eran settlement but brought little
relief to the condition. Shipped
from distant points, the trailers
had been redecorated and repaired
and were promptly occupied.
Disadvantages.
At the University of California
at Los Angeles, enrollment totaled
13,721, a 98.5 increase over last
yenr. There 67 are men, forc
ing them to operate at an even
greater disadvantage than do the
U. N. males.
If nothing else, the war has at
least sharpened the young Ameri
can's thirst for knowledge or
something.

With at least a portion of the
nation forgetting labor problems,
meat shortages and international
crises in favor of football over the
week-end, the country's economic
affairs become more and more
critical.
Earlier in the week, President
Truman stated that it was the cat
tle producers of the country who
were "at least partly responsible"
for the present meat shortage. Big
time cattlemen Jumped on this
statement and took violent issue
with the President. Said Sam Mc
Kelvie, president of the Sand Hills
Cattle Association of Nebraska:
"I do not anticipate much relief
from the extreme shortage for the
general public before the first of
the year, nor will there be an ade
quate adjustment of the supply
during the life of OPA."
International affairs remained
in their own confusing state but
Secretary James Byrnes seemed to
be confident of his ability to ease
the tense situation, according to
sources close to him at the Paris
conference. Brynes is supposedly
preparing a speech in answer to
Marshal Stalin, Anthony Eden and
the late secretary of commerce,
Henry Wallace. It is said that this
speech will clarify America's in
ternational position and announce
changes in the country's foreign
policy necessitated by recent de
velopments. Labor troubles in this country
remained static with maritime
leaders keeping silent on an
nounced plans to demand further
wage increases. Merchant seamen
now appear to be on a teeter-totter
with the A.F.L. going up first
and the C.I.O. demanding equal
status. .
The A.F.L. ultimatum issued to
authorities in Pittsburgh has not
been complied with as yet. Latest
reports say that the entire public
utilities system in the steel town
will eventually be crippled. Un
less the government takes a direct
hand, it appears obvious that labor
will score another victory in its
overall battle for a general in
crease in wages.
According to H. Allen Smith,

Union Director
Reveals Food
Service Plans
Plans for a new Sunday evening
food service scheduled to open on
Octobed 6 are being formulated by
the Union it was announced by
Patricia A. Lahr, director.
Because none of the organized
houses serve meals at this time,
buffet suppers are tentatively
arranged and will be served in the
main dining room in the west
wing from 5:30 until 7:00. Dinner
music will be provided by a
pianist.
A charge of 85 cents has been
set for a menu which includes
salads, hot vegetables, cold meats,
rolls, relishes, a beverage and
pie. The dining room will be
open to all students, and no ad
vance reservations are necessary.
Continuing during the month of
October, the plan, if successful,
will be carried on throughout the
year, according to Miss Lahr.
Bacteriologists Use
Miniature Rabbits
To Test Injections
The testing of solutions in
tended for injection into the
veins of human patients has
been greatly facilitated through
the use of miniature rabbits, it
was reported Friday by Dr. Carl
E. Georgi, university bacteriolo
gist. The solutions, which contain
penicillin and distilled water,
must be tested to learn whether
harmful impurities are present.
Miniature Rabbits Best.
Large rabbits use considerable
amounts of solution, which com
plicates the testing process, said
Dr. Georgi.
The miniature animals, which
are bred from white New Zealand
rabbits, occupy half the space
usually required for such tests and
acquire less of the solution for
successful results.
The use of the smaller animals
for testing was developed by the
university's department of bac
teriology in co-operation with a
Lincoln pharmaceutal manufac
turing firm.

Look!
Prof. Linus. Smith, chairman
of the architecture department,
requests all university students
living in organized houses, dor
mitories, and campus rooming
houses to examine their rooms
in the possibility of finding
architectural equipment which
has been loaned out in previous
years. Professor Smith reports
a capacity enrollment in the
department which has created
a serious shortage of drawing
boards, equipment and ma
terials. The professor pointed out
that the recovery of a single
drawing board will .enable a
veteran to continue the course
which he will otherwise be
forced to drop.
Men interested in varsity ten

in the N club room of the Coli
