ganizations throughout the state.
Alumni in Lincoln call themselves
the Links.

Jones, Johnsons
Confuse School -Records,
Officials
University officials are having
trouble keeping up with the
Joneses and Johnsons this fall. In
this year of record breaking en
rollment:., there are six men
named Robert Jones at the Uni
versity, and to make matters
worse there are eight Robert
Johnsons, four Ralph Johnsons,
one Maurice Johnson and one
Miss Maurcce Johnson. .
The Robert Johnsons are: Rob
ert A., Robert D., Robert H., Rob
ert H., Robert L., Robert T., Rob
ert W., and Robert W. The Ralph
Johnsons are Ralph C, Ralph D.,
Ralph K., and Ralph M.
The "Jones boys" are Robert D.,
Robert K., Robert K., Robert L.,
Robert L., aifd Robert V.
It all certainly goes to make a
confusing situation in University
affairs and in social contacts.
