Nov It's My Turn BY EDDIE McCULLOUGII The Big Vice coming up soon (the Mortar Board Ball, that is) leaves all us mere males sweating out dates. My pet amusement is asking people disarming questions so thought I'd find out how the Big Boys plan to get themselves asked. First two I met were drinking coffee in the Crib, and had defi nite plans already laid. One said "Look, I'll show ya," calmly set fire to a crisp new $5 bill, lit a cigaret with it, and tossed the burning scrap onto the floor. The other pulled out a set of car keys, nonchalantly twirled them slowly around his finger. My apologies to the two blondes I knocked down while getting out of the booth. The third one was more aloof. He said "Well, I've been dating for seven or eight years now. Dates aren't so wonderful to me any more that I'll go out just to be going out. w hat s the rush? I d rather wait until I find a girl that I really appreciate, and then start. I got plenty of time." The most particular youth en countered was the one who had seven missions over Pike's Peak to his credit. He said he planned to run a classified ad in the Rag, something like "Wanted: Well- dressed, intelligent, witty blonde or brunette with '42 or '46 model convertible. Must be good dancer, bright conversationalist, well read. Applications will be ac cepted between the hours of two and two-thirty . . . red-heads need not apply." Finally found a fella who had given the situation practically no thought. When he was informed that his date for the Military Ball was not obliged by custom or anything else to ask him to the Mortar Board Ball, he was slightly nonplused. Seems he spends all his spare hours in Omaha, loung ing about the rearmost booth of the soft-lighted Frolics, at the hour when the white-collar girls come in after work. The way he described the date situation in Omaha is that the eligible male has his choice of the horde, and he was having difficulty realizing that he would have any trouble in Lincoln. Thus, kiddies, we have a cross- section of male approach on the campus. There should be enough plans here, with variations on each, to give everyone a solution to the problem. Me? well, ah I think women are allergic to me. But you guys go right ahead and use these schemes they're for free. I'll see the rest of you that night in the Pines or Diamond Grill. ' Stag, that is. And remember, Girls that are older Are renerally bolder Bat girls that are younger Are strictly from hunger!
