Campus Vigilance . . .
A recent outbreak of burglaries on campus causes us
to turn our attention to the university police force. During
the past weeks, this staff, which is handicapped by its size,
has managed to nip nearly every sign ot trouble m tne Dua.
Although the case was given little attention in the
Daily Nebraskan, we feel that the recent arrest of an ac
knowledged peeping-tom is an excellent sign of the vigi
lance the campus police demonstrate. I his arrest goes
hand-in-hand with the sudden cessation of acticity on the
part of "the man in the blue car".
Mr. John Furrow, head of the campus force, has worked
in close cooperation with campus authorities and Lincoln
police for many years and the low rate of misdemeanors
which remain unsolved in the university area testify to the
success of his work.
While much -criticism has been levelled at the force in
connection with faculty and student parking, this criticism
cannot be justified when a look is taken at the excellent
record of law enforcement the police have chalked up.
Mr. Furrow has informed the Daily Nebraskan that he
is studying the campus parking situation at the present time
with other officials in the hope that some satisfactory solu
tion can be discovered. In he light of his willingness to
work with, the students, the Daily Nebraskan feels called
upon to point out that more cooperation with Furrow and
his staff might eliminate student-administration friction on
problems dealing with the physical operation of the univer
sity. J. H.
Lose Your Head? See'
Union Lost And Found
BY WY WALKER.
Maybe you didn't know it, but
In this noble institution of ours,
we have a department founded for
the express purpose of Aid for
Poor Lost Souls , . . Namely the
Lost and Found Agency in the
Union.
This department has grown to
such staggering proportions that
the Union administration is con
sidering hiring a caretake and sev
eral filing clerks to take care of
the refuse cast upon it! Such a
move, however, would run into
many complications, such as hav
ing to organize a new local of the
CIO for obvious portal-to-portal
reasons, that the state taxes would
undoubtedly suffer a sharp rise.
Careless.
The last statement might be
considered a slight exaggeration,
but, believe me, the situation is
worse than might be supposed.
Either the intelligensia of our
school spends all its time worry
ing about studying, or the larger
percentage are so scatterbrained
that minor items such as textbooks
and fountain pens are never
missed.
. Speaking of fountain pens . . .
are your fingers worn to the bone
from writing without one? If so,
we have an easy solution. Just
go down to Lawlors' and pick out
one of those new marvel jobs,
come back here and describe it.
It's as simple as that, really. You'll
find all sizes, sorts and styles. If
you can stretch your imagination,
writing without a pen is all right,
but otherwise, we think our idea
much better.
Need a. Glove?
The thing that is hard to un
derstand is, how, when frigid tem
peratures like our past few days'
gift from the gods, descend upon
us, anyone could leave behind a
pair of cheerful red earmuffs or
two warm furlined gloves. And
what is worse than that is the
Case of the Missing Glove. There
are so many mismated gloves re
siding there that they've gotten
together to start a legal divorce
court and marriage bureau. After
all, gloves might get lonely too.
But the glasses ... yes, the
glasses. That Lost and Found
drawer is an optometrist's delight.
If every pair of spectacles which
have wandered there have ben
replaced, why, every eye doctor
in the city should have been re
tired to a country estate by this
time. There are weak glasses,
strong glasses, big glasses and
small glasses, red, white, blue and
black glasses . . . step right up,
oh aching-eyed ones, and claim
yours. Well anyhow, perhaps that
accounts for the jam of humanity
stationed outside the north door
of Sosh between classes. Some
misguided individual has probably
mistaken the building for Avery
and can't quite figure where the
test tubes have disappeared.
Why Not Look?
Yes, one can discover most any
thing in the drawer labeled Lost
and Found. Just in case you've
lost something why not give it a
try? If that coke date left you
so flustered that you walked away
from the Crib leaving behind a
week's supply of cigarettes or your
house dues for the month, you
may find your problem solved by
simply inquiring from the girl at
the check stand.
It's not unlikely that the frus
trated soul, who's been yelling
himself hoarse all over the coun
try for the past two weeks might
even find Richard, or at least a
skeleton key there. In fact, I've
nearly decided that the Lost and
Found drawer is Kilroy's perma
nent home . . . and I'm so con
vinced that I'm gonna go see right
now . . . one never knows . . .

Moodie Announces
Board Appointees
For Ag Meeting
Four agriculturalists have been
appointed to confer with the uni
versity's advancement committee,
Robert R. Moodie, committee
chairman, announced Friday.
Appointees are: Neal Barbour,
Scottsbluff; Harry Pumphrey,
Wisner; Harry Minor, Hyannis;
and Ted Robinson, Waterloo. Each
is a specialist in a different phase
of agriculture.
Created last spring by the Uni
versity Alumni association, the
committee is intended to dissemi
nate information about the uni
versity to people out state and to
pass on any criticisms or sugges
tions concerning the. university
that they may hear.
"The committee felt that, since
Nebraska is primarily an agricul
tural state, it would be well to
have the counsel of the leaders of
that industry," Moodie explained.
Representing four separate dis
tricts in the state, the four men
will attend all committee meet
ings, the chairman stated.
All Innocents are requested
to be at a meeting: at 10:00
Monday evening.
