Unsung Workers . . .
Announcement of the new officers of the Student Foun
dation for the coming year reminds us that, for an organ
ization which gives the university a lot of publicity, it gets
little mention itself.
Most of the campus knows that the Foundation pub
lishes the Student Directory and that it co-sponsored the
presentation of the Beauty Queens. It is, however, the un
tsungr efforts of the Foundation which prove its worth.
The main function of the Foundation is to impress the
high school students of Nebraska, especially the seniors
with the opportunities offered them by the university. To
accomplish this task, the workers of the Foundation divide
the state into districts, each supervised by a chairman
County chairmen, working under the district head, write
news stones of activities and honors which come to urn
versity students whose homes are in their counties. The
news is sent to the newspapers in that area and serves as
a drawing card. There are also out-of-state chairmen who
use the same technique in advertising Nebraska in other
parts of the country.
Each spring a bulletin, "Nebraska Today," is sent out
to the 200 high schools of the state. The bulleitn explains
to the graduating classes of the schools what activities are
carried on here and summarizes the requirements and work
of each college in the university.
With all these duties, it is no wonder that Foundation
workers forget to broadcast their accomplishments. Since
a great part of each year's freshman class is recruited by
that organization, the Foundation deserves much credit and
a hearty pat on the back for its work.

Wonder if they have calen
dars in fraternity houses? The
reason I ask is that when I
called the PHI PSI house and
asked for news for the coming
daze, the Voice on the End of
the Line hollered to all, "Do
we have any parties coming up
on the 28, 29, or 30 of Feb?"
Gee, and it isn't even leap year!
Hope someone sets that poor
boy right before he finds out
he's two days behind everyone
else. . .
Seen any fellows running:
around trying: to borrow girls'
wearing- apparel lately? If so,
girls, don't trust them. . .they're
not collecting items for the
orphans in Lower Slobbovia at
all; they're only attempting a
guise to obtain entrance to
COED FOLLIES which is all
ready (what a joke!) for cur
tain rise at 8 p. m. Tuesday in
the Union Ballroom. I don't
know what the fellows think
goes on at those affairs, but all
you have to say is that it's
strictly all female, and they'll
break their necks hanging from
chandeliers trying to see and
hear. The Follies should be
good this year . . . providing: the
participants survive 'til then...
Comes the Big Event and this
week it's the INTERFRATER
NITY BALL to be held at the
Pike Friday night. Authorita
tive sources have told me that
the "music is really smoooooth"
...the boys have imported
PHIL LEVANT and his band
from Chicago. We'd like to put
in our plug now for the council
and Sig Ep DICK FOLDA,
president, for what we know
will be one of the nicest balls
of all. Only we do hope the
weather man is on our side this
time. That Pike is sooo cold,
and formals aren't exactly the
warmest type dress invented.
Someone once made the
statement that "It never fains
but it pours," and JACKIE
SCOTT would be the first to
vehemently affirm the fact.
Seems as though the ALPHA
CHIS only have three formal
events coming up ... oh well,
girls, formals aren't very ex
pensive or hard to ret these
days. First of all, their very
lovely Red Carnation Ball Fri
day night at the Cornhusker. . .
Jean Moyer again... it sounds
awfully nice to us. . .red carna
tions, the sorority flower all
over the place... mmm, and
they smell good too.
Saturday will find them
heading back to the 'Husker for
the National Alum Banquet,
featuring their Province Presi
dent, MRS. CARL DREW, and
Sunday the girls will don an
other dress and all their dig
nity for a tea at the chapter
house in Mrs. Drew's honor.
Social chairman, Jackie, will
appreciate greatly any aspirin
donations about Sunday eve
ning... AL BERQUIST, is rounding
up the SIG ALPH pledges for
this Saturday nite when they
throw their annual party for
the actives ... at Bloomers . . .
and it's so informal that it's
been appropriately named the
Hobo Ball ... all the hobos and
hobo-ettes will dress accord
ingly and have a whee of a
time. . .By Wy.
Angel Street Production Wednesday
Footlights Eerie Tale of Suspense
BY NORM LEGER.
When the house lights go
down and the curtain rises on
the opening of "Angel Street"
Wednesday night, University
Theatre patrons will view a
dingy room with Victorian fur
nishings that creates "a feeling
of dread with its eerie gas light
ing. The story that is unfolded
in this gloomy atmosphere only
intensifies such feeling.
In Victorian London.
The place: The Manningham
residence on Angel Street in
London. The time: The late
1800's. All that is needed to
give the audience moments of
suspense and terror is found in
the diabolical actions of the sin
ister Mr. Manningham who is
slowly torturing his wife into
insanity. It is the friendly de
tective Rough who comes to the
aid of Mrs. Manningham and
reveals the evil past of the
fiendish Mr. Manningham.
Berggren, Lucas in Leads.
Barbara Berggren plays the
part of Mrs. Manningham. The
role of Mr. Manningham is
taken by Bill Lucas. Rex Cos
lor will be seen as Rough, the
detective. Pat Boyd plays the
part of Nancy, the maid; Doro
thea Duxbury, the cook and
housekeeper. Max Whittaker is
directing the play.
The box office will open to
morrow noon and will be open
every afternoon of the week
until 6 p. m., according to Arlis
Swanson, University Theatre
business manager.

CHARLES KULLMAN.
For recital -roers, a familiar programm
BY SAM WARREN.
If criticism has been leveled
against the choice of selections
programmed by concert artists
this season, Charles Kullman's re
cital Monday night will give cause
1 for no further criticism. Singing
a program that includes some cf
the best-known numbers (and
best-loved, incidentally) in the
concert repertoire, Kullman prom
concert repertoire, Kullman
promises Lincoln Symphony goers
an evening of pleasant music. Fa
miliar tunes and arias in no way
Imply, however, that his program
will' be a simple one to sing. The
Bchubert group along as well as
some of the spirited Italian num
bers made demands on a singer's
control.
Schubert's "Serenade" and his
"The Trout," English songs like
"Passing By" and "Go Lovely
Rose" and Massenet's "Ouvre tes
yeux bleus" are among the songs
familiar 'to concert habitues, not
to mention "Annie Laurie" and
"Funiculi-Funicula."
Whereas many recitalists give
their audiences but one aria, Kull
man, who is most famous for his
work in opera, has chosen to sing
three, "The Flower Song" from
Carmen, "The Dream" from
Manon, and "Wowan is Fickle"
from Rigoletto.
Signe Hasso, Bob Hope's co-star
in Paramount's "Where There's
Life," plans return to native
Stockholm in near future to por
tray Joan of Arc on Royal Acad
emy stage.

Hey there, have you seen Randy Ewing? I'm
mine. It's a two button single breasted
brown sharkskin that really makes me feel
on top of the world. This handsomely tail
ored suit has notch lapels and a soft full
drape. It's A-l in my wardrobe! When you
see Randy tell him I've chosen him this week
as the best dressed man on campus . . . he's
a Corncob whose terrific smile and personality pep
up the entire cheering section. Although from Albion
he calls his first home the Kappa Sig house, "ftariay
is a sophomore in Bizad and a wise one too cause
he wears a HARVEY BROTHERS suit.
