The Frenchy Tau party of last Saturday night is still causing memorable comment. Understand Ellie Lykke received a welcome of undue warmth when she ar rived with prexy Mark Har greaves her latest attraction. Garters of all laces and colors prevailed as pass words for the eve, but Fatti Holmes got by on the conventional one. Gene Wie ler appeared with "The Strange Woman," but bowed out before the close of the evening while Chich Mohrman lent a helping hand. "Bill Munson made en trance with something new and different in the form of Amy Jo Bergh. Dual Role. Playing a new role, Dube Freed was mistaken for a seeing eye dog Friday night after date, B. J. Steele removed her glasses. Still can't understand where Lee Baughn got all the "fur" to catch the popcorn thrown at him at King's Friday night. They say Kreml does it. Decisions are flying Ginny Pester had her last date out Sun day night before settling down to Hank Heidtbrink, an admirer of long standing. Bobbie Rowland is confronted with same debate con cerning said Houtz "Zoo" Stein burg. Lee Leuers seems to be appre ciative of Ann Lomax in evening dress as of yet, their dates have consisted of nothing by various formals about campus. She really isn't bow-legged, Lew. Together Again. Nadine Anderson and Jerry Hanson have decided their old troubles to be trivial and are now back on the ever-changing steady list. Yvonne DeTeau is reviving the past and again fanning the old flame with Bill Moorhouse. Men about campus will be hap py to know that the steady dat ing of Bill Moomey and Shirley Eskilsen is a thing of the past . . . a romance that shattered quickly. Faithful churchgoers witnessed the presence of Don Chapin and June Korb among the congrega tion, Sunday morning.

Youth Hostels . . Continued from Page 1 some of which caan be purchased at National Headquarters or at local office. With war-time re strictions lifted A. Y. H. equipment is being increased and improved to meet the needs of hostelers. It is not essential to have hostel- ing experience for participation in most of the sponsored trips. Cycl ing proficiency is usually neces sary. In regard to this the Bul letin suggests, "The Montreal Quebec trip is suggested for be ginners. In contrast, the Central America Pioneer trip is undoubt edly difficult and requires previ ous hosteling experience." Man ual dexterity and an understand ing of post war problems take precedence over hosteling experi ence on the Europe work proj ects. Hostels Are Important The hostel building is an in tegral part of the general hostel set up. Youth Hostels are over night accommodations for those who travel by hiking, biking, ski ing, canoeing, or eveen horse back riding. The charge is 25c plus a fuel charge. There are separate bunkrooms for the fellows and girls, a common kitchen where hostelers cook their own food, and usually a recreation room for spe cial group activities Blankets and cooking utensils are provided by the "houseparents," who donate their homes for such use. - Descriptions of various trios will appear in following articles. Further information concerning any phase of the program can be obtained by writing to: American Youth Hostels, Inc., National Headquarters, Northfield, Mass. CHhisdsL, (Rsiiatu . SisipA io Jcwul BY DICK TOOF. As roving reporter for the Rag, I've met some pretty interesting people, most of them students here on the campus. One of the most interesting students I've in terviewed is Borden S. Homo, who some of you may know as the tennis champion and star rep resentative of the university ath letic association. Borden told me the following story. "I first became interested in athletics shortly after the start of the football season. I noticed how easily football stars could get dates, so I said to myself, 'That's for me.' I went down to the stadium one afternoon to suit up, but they couldn't find a suit small enough for me. My jersey football sweater 'and football pants looked like a sloppy joe and plus fours on me. "Can't Use You" "The coach came over to me slowly shaking his head. "I'm afraid that we can't use you now, Borden," he said. "But keep in touch with us. We may be able to use you if this shortage of foot balls keeps up." "But isn t there some activity I can take part in?" I asked, thinking desparately how dif ficult it would be to pick up a date with no assets but a Cush man scooter. "Well, let me see. Basketball? No, you're too short. Have you ever done any boxing?" Activities I had done a lot of boxing out in Southern California with the Sunkist orange company, but I did'nt think I should mention it, so I said no. I also had to admit to him that I had never done any long distance running, that I could not swim, and that I didn't know how to play volley ball. "The ping pong coach was over joyed. Here was a chance to get Nebraska out of the cellar of the ping pong league where it had been for the last 33 years. Things began to come easy for me now. First the coach changed my schedule from 17 hours pre-law to 12 hours in Applied Procrasti nation. I ate at a special table in the Union with the football players. Publicity. "The coach released some pub licity about me to the papers, and from then on it was the easy road. received bids from six social fraternities, eleven sororities, and eight professional and honorary societies. Everywhere I went peo ple pointed me out as the "White Hone" of the Nebraska team. I quit going to my zoology class but the professor, a tennis fan, kept raising my grades instead of flunking me. I posed for a Lord Calvert advertisement, entitled "Men of Intellectual Foresight." Each night at 9:30 the coach and the chancellor would come and tuck me in bed. I was doing wonders in the team. We met and defeated Notre Dame, the Kansas Hawks, the Al catraz Angels. The day we played Bryn Mawr lor national cnam pionship, the university dismissed classes so students could listen over the radio. Not only did KFAB, WOW, and KFOR send newscasters to cover the tourna ment but it was the first televi sion broadcast beamed into Lin coln. Reputation. "We won that game and the na tional championship easily. I guess my reputation had preceded me the Bryn Mawr team seemed awed when I entered. Besides, those girls kept smiling into the television screen after each good serve and they were suckers for a fast return. "And when the team returned to Lincoln what a celebration! The university presented me with a platinum tennis paddle, with a diamond inlaid handle. The The tas presented fne with one of their number who had been chosen as an offering to me I could sacri fice her on an altar if I wanted. That's what I like a useful gift." Dream Realized. "Wonderful," concluded Bor den. "All my fondest dreams everyone of them realized. It's talent and ability that does it." "Gee," I said, awed. "You're quite a hero all right, Mr. Homo. What's your secret of success?" "Good, clean living," Mr. Toof. Clean living and remembering to be thankful for the goodness and mercy that has been shown to me. And frankly, I've always got a lot of good out of these Carter's liver pills. Well, sorry, but I've got to go to a city council meeting member, you know. Goodbye, Mr. Toof." And getting into his Cadillac, he drove away. Exam Change Because of conflicts, the hour of the final examination in M. E. 1 has been changed. The exam will be Riven from 8 to 11, Monday, Feb. 27.

JOKE OF THE WEEK: Jokes come and blow... some are acceptable only in closed door affairs. . .some bring flustered and blushing glances from the fairer sex... the joke that takes the blue ribbon for this week is one told by Corn Cribber Duane Mattson: The wee small boy was standing on the street cor ner. A big burly truant officer stalked up to him and asked him, "Son, why aren't you in school?" The little boy gazed seriously up into his eyes and replied, "Hell, man, I'm only three years old."
