Coach Greg's Pipe Dreams
The Omaha World-Herald pipe dreamers were working overtime
yesterday. Greg McBride, the man who knows, took it upon him
self to interpret the university athletic board statement to such an
extent that little was left of the original idea behind the release.
There are times when a newspaper's eagerness to accomplish a
purpose causes that newspaper to clutch at straws. The Omaha paper
not only clutched, it hugged to its figurative breast a statement that
was intended to be taken atx face value.
Is McBride trying to outshine Floyd Olds Fred Ware? Or will
Ware Olds retort tomorrow with an even bigger and better pipe
dream?
Compare the actual statement from the athletic board on page
one with the story McBride created in the World-Herald. Mr. Ware,
managing editor of the Herald, will have to go some to catch up
with Greg. With Floyd Olds help, or at least name, Fred may be
able to do it.
McBride thinks A. J. Lewandowski went to Chicago to find
"new coach material." This idea was based on the fact that Mr.
Lewandowski left for Chicago yesterday. Ad's announced destina
tion was the the Big Nine conference. No more than that, but with
the aid of some whole cloth, Lewandowski is looking for "new
coaching material".
The Man Who Knows can second guess Bernie on Sunday morn
ing. He can rant and rave about the insidious "O" street gang, that
band of thieves that takes business away from Omaha. But he
can't answer Lyle Bremser's statements about the Worlds-Herald and
Biff Jones. And he can't justify his consistent attacks against a
man who never satisfied the World-Herald in the first place.
Frank Leahy wouldn't satisfy the World-Herald. They want
the old schedule, with Biff and Greg and Fred getting along fine.
No other coach will satisfy them, and the Herald will have a good
time crying sour grapes from here on in.
Go to it Greg. But please cut down on the pipe-dreams will
you? J. H.

Audience Gives
Theater Play
Much Applause
The University Theater's sec
ond production of the year, "The
Man Who Came To Dinner,"
opened at the Temple theater last
night, offering a loud, lusty, and
laughable interpretation of Kauf
man's and Hart's popular comedy.
The hilarious and slightly ris
que story of a dinner guest, who
allegedly broke his hip on his
host's doorstep and moved-in to
convalcnce with a complete as
sembly of chorus girls, Christmas
carolers, cockroaches, and other
sundry characters, was presented
befoie a full house audience who
received the play with hearty
enthusiasm.
Marr First Rate.
Gaylord Marr as the man who
should never be invited to din
ner turned out a first rate per
formance delivering his line
smoothly and professionally. All
that Kaufman's and Hart's lead
ing role takes is a bit of doing,
and Marr is the "guy that can
do it."
Dean Graunke, as Beverly Carl
ton, gave an outstanding presenta
tion of a famous entertainer and
Richard Proud, in the part of
Banjo, was equally convincing as
the idiotic Hollywood director.
Graunke, who does not play the
piano learned his song especially
for this production.
Highlights.
Chuck Bergoffen's Schussnigg
accent; Margaret Huff's trans
Atlantic telephone call; Mary Nel
son's realistic insanity; and Phyllis
Baldridge and William Line, as
the surprised hosts, were high
lights of the play. Jack McDonald,
Homer Hauptman, and Bob Baum
as the luncheon guests in hand
cuffs along with Emmy Hill, the
cook, and Bill Reuter, the butler,
made-up the supporting cast
which was necessary for the suc
cessful performance of "The Man
Who Came to Dinner."
The feminine leads taken by
June Cast, the secretary: Mar
garet Huff, the actress; and Betty
Schultz. the nurse were portrayed
convincingly. Nurse Preen's re
tirement from the medical profes
sion was one of the most hu
morous scenes in the exceedingly
funny plot.
The mumbled incohereneies of
Walter Simon, as "the local horse
doctor," were easily the best pre
sented lines of the play.
To the Student Body and faculty Senate:
Due to recent developments, Sigma Chi Fraternity feels that
its position should be known in regard to the Kosrhet Klub Revue
and subsequent banning of our fraternity from next year's show
and the suspension from all formal or downtown social functions
for the remainder of the year.
We sincerely apologize for the objectionable feature of our
skit, but we feel that the action of the faculty senate was unreason
ably severe in view of the policy apparently condoned in the pre
sentation of the Kosmet Klub Revue.
Naturally, we will abide by the faculty senate's ruling. We
feel, however, that in the future when any such action as this is
pending, a more thorough, investigation of the situation is in order.
Respectfully submitted,
Dale R. Bloss
President, Alpha Epsilon Chapter of Sigma Chi Fraternity
In the last week the Daily Nebraskan has published two articles
condemning the action of sports writers in Lincoln and Omaha. I
think the University and the football coaches especially should be
quite glad that these writers have done quite a bit to calm the
people of the "Can the Coach" school of thought. Instead of doing
this, the head coach took it upon himself to publicly denounce these
writers. These papers, if staffed by writers as reactionary as those
writing for the Daily Nebraskan, would have given the responsibility
to the deserving parties, instead of just saying "Maybe we will win
the next ones." Instead of complimenting the newspapers for this
attitude the Rag has taken the position of condemning them any
time they print anything expressing the opinions of the readers.

the Veterans Administration ef
fective September 1, 1947, a vet

tive calendar days following the
closing date of that semester;
except where his entitlement
has expired, in which case the
fifteen days' leave subsistence
will not be paid. Each veteran
who receives this subsistence
will also have fifteen days de
ducted from his time entitle
ment. If any veteran who is

thirty days before the end of
the semester. This may be done
by coming to the office of the
veterans Consultation Board, 101
Mechanic Arts Hall, not later
than December 20, 1947.
Subsistence will be paid auto
matically thru the Christmas
recess with an accompanying
deduction of fifteen days from
time entitlement. Veterans are
strongly urged not to conserve
this fifteen days of entitlement
thru the Christmas recess, be
cause to do so will require the
actual termination of their Uni
versity G. I. enrollment. A ter
mination of enrollment at the
beginning of the Christmas re
cess would then require a re
enrollment at the end of the re
cess, and an accompanying de
lay of thirty days or more in
the payment of subsistence.
CORRECTION
Contrary to the notice which
appeared in the Dec. 9 issue of
The Daily Nebraskan, pictures of
all fraternity men who did not
have their pictures taken on
schedule, will still appear in both
fraternity and class sections of
the 1948 Cornhusker.
These pictures may still be
taken any time during the day
at Warner-Medlin studios.
