There comes a time in every
one's life when he gets a certain
desire to spend a quiet evening
not at home. And that seems to
be predominate idea in the minds
of all incoming students to go
out.
This year a new angle which
has been ably discussed by my
journalistic colleagues has given
the campus a brighter glow. Tiz

Saturday in red c n the calendar,

the masculine gender above but

the line does not necessarily in
sure you against the ' I'll see you
around" craftily phrased by be
guiling men as they take their
leave.
Opinion Does It!
From the concensus of opinion
the average man cares not
whether he has some perspiring
hand to clutch fondly while guf
fawing loudly at Danny Kaye, or
if he spends the evening telling
the lesser fortunate of the girls
he's practically pinned to in
Michigan or California . . . and
the. monetary side if definitely
established in their favor. True,

Nix!
Bangle bracelets that litter the
arm from waist to elbow look
like leftovers from a scrap iron
factory according to the lament
ing man, and ankle bracelets
should be worn by those who
have good reason to call attention
to the legs. An eastern univer
sity ran protests of the comfort
able jeans in their campus news
paper. "They do just the wrong
things, they commented.
Strong protests, and even low
moans can be heard when the
words "sloppy sweaters" is men

any color according to them, but
for heaven's sake, let's refrain

fine providing they re not worn

hair and make the face too ob

still a man s world.

The Hat, to make up a 24 page

The aforementioned Hat,

boss, has been curling his hair and
tying it under his chin, he's so
perturbed about the dearth of
humor on this campus. Even took
up passja'g petitions, so many peo
ple lauied in his face.

Ms. N. V.
"""-N. Men's Shoes. Second Floor V
BY ELLIE SWANSON.
The school year is in full
swing, and everybody has writ
ten something about most of the
important events. I am of the
opinion that hour dances have
been sadly neglected.
What is the purpose of these
gay social affairs, you ask? I, too,
have often wondeied about that,
but I have finally come to the
conclusion (this is purely obser
vation, you understand) that fra
ternities schedule an hour dance
with a sorority for the express
purpose of taking a last minute
census to see if there are any girls
left without dates.
This is a harsh statement, I'll
admit, but what else can a girl
think when as she dances to the
strains of "Surrender," a gentle
man partner suddenly says,
"Gracious, but you have a nice big
house. I'll bet you have room
for oodles of girls." Seeing an
opening for expanding on the as
sets of your sorority, you open
your mouth. He continues un
aided. "I'll bet that there isn't
a single girl here without a date
tonight." "Well, I wouldn't say
that exactly," you blush modestly.
"I was just going to tell you about
the handsome football player we
have at the house. We call him
'Van' among the boys."
"I know just the girl for him,"
you sav, sincerely trying to hesi
tate. Arrangements are made for
an hour later. At the appointed
time, two familiar voices speak
again ... in unison. "She (he)
was busy, so I came instead." Oh,
well, there's always another hour
dance next v??k.
Absenting
And then there's the great
7 T
Pledge
Members
According to Blanche Duck
worth, president of the Nebraska
Masquers, the dramatic organiza
tion for students interested in
theater and radio, seven girls and
two boys have recently been
tapped as pledges of the organ
ization. They are: Eleanor Dent, Mimi
Hahn, Patricia Heynen, Lois Jar
man, William Lucas, Phyllis
Snyder, Janet Staley, Robert
Wheeler and Sue Taube. Pledges
are chosen by a merit system based
on their participation in the Uni
versity Theater and dramatic art
activities.
Mary Hatcher, the 17 year old
ajctress who plays the title role in
Paramount's "Variety Girl," won
jittrburg dancing contests when
she was nine.

asset of hour dances. Have you
ever had trouble remembering
names? This is your golden op
portunity to practice reciting
about 50 different names in only
aan hour. You begin by vaguely
knowing the names of the girls
in your sorority and a few of the
boys in the visiting fraternity. In
the short space of an hour, you
probably don't know what soror
ity you belong to, the names of
any of the fellows, and in most
cases, you can't even pionounce
your own name.
It's always slightly embarrass
ing to be dancing with a dashing
young blade, and, after you have
spent an entire song telling him
how much you have always ad
mired him and "it's such an honor
for great big famous you to dance
with ittle bitsty me," you are
suddenly interrupted by a calm,
gloating voice introducing you to
her partner. All eyes turn on
you waiting for an impossible in
troduction. (NIow this is the place
where I will prove that hour
dances quicken your thinking.)
After a few stifling seconds of
silence, you have a brainstorm.
Throwing your arms about his
neck, you croon, "Just call him
'pochie'! I always do."
I could go on and on about the
fun short girls have dancing with
their arms about the waist of a
6' 4" amazon, and the taller ones
dancing on their knees so they
can hear what their sweet partner
is saying. It's all life, I tell you,
and besides, think of all the peo
ple you get to know . . . even
if you never do see them again
and couldn't remember their
names if you did.
