PAGE 4 THE DAILY NEBRASKAN Wednesday, Icmuary 14, 1948 YM Presents Russian Classic. Simonov's 'Days and Nights9 "Days and Nights, Konstantin Simonov's cinema adaptation of his moving novel about the de fense of Stalingrad, will be pre sented by the YMCA oti Friday Jan. 16, at 8 p. m. at the Temple theater. The Russian production, with English sub-titles, is one of a se ries of foreign films being made available by the YM. Admission, including tax, will be 50c. Although "Time" magazine claims that "Days and Nights" possesses the weakness of so many modern Russian films, lush un realism, and claims that it has "more than a touch of Hollywood with-Russian-dressing," "N e w s week" in its acclamation states that the Soviet film "captures what must have been the true spirit of those men and women who by sheer power of will, won Stalingrad back, building by building." Although all of its people are Russian, they might be Americans or Englishmen fighting to defend their country against invaders The days and nights of the title are the days and nights when most of Stalingrad was in Ger man hands, the days and nights which historians may decide marked the beginning of the end of Nazi might. It is an exciting movie, action packed and almost devoid of propaganda. None of its charac ters, all vividly and humanly pre sented, spout the party line. It is a tribute to the Russian motion picture industry and to the peo ple of the country that fought so courageously at Stalingrad. It is no movie of black and white, in which the Russians are all white and the Germans all black. There is even a Russian traitor willing to sell out his coun try. Such Germans as move into the movie are not bestial, Holly woodian villains with monocles and blood mania. The general feeling is warm and real. The hero of the movie is a red army captain, whose job it is to take and hold three apartment houses in Stalingrad. This he does, but not easily, and not without severe losses among his men. Un skilled at the start in the dread ful modern art of house-to-house fighting, Captain Saburov does not move with incredible movie like precision but like red army A. A. U. P. An annual business meeting of the American Association of University Professors, will be held Tues., Jan. 20, at 6 p. m., in par lors XY of the Union.

PETERSON smokes CHESTERFIELDS Lloyd says: "I've compared many brands and Chesterfields always come out on top they're tightly packed, full-flavored and a cooler smoking cigar- ette." Voted TOPS! Chesterfield the largest selling: cigarette in America's colleges (by nation wide surrey). men must have moved when Si monov fought and wrote with them. Most of the movie is about how Saburov held his buildings and how, finally, in the distance, the Russians heard the rumble of their own heavy artillery and knew that with dawn the siege would be lifted at last.

World-minded Alpha Phi's are keeping up with the news by delving into all the available cur rent literature. The latest book which has fallen into their eager hands is the Kinsey Report, a study of the behavior of the North American male animal. The Phi house is a-buzz with discussion concerning this worth-while best seller. The aquarium unit of the dor mitory zoo is now located on third floor Love in the room also in habited by Alpha Xi pledges, Toni Flemming and Joyce Buck. These gals are carefully supervising the raising of two goldfish which are named Dick and Art after the gals' current loves. Believe me, these fish get attention plus! Love at First Sight. A moment of silent prayer is now in order for all the ferns who were left broken-hearted when ATO Fran Fagot started going steady. Fran had his first date with Alpha Chi Ruth Miller on the last Sunday night of vaca tion, and by the next Wednes day, the two were going steady. This dashing new twosome also made quite a showing at the Tau formal Saturday night. The gals out Alpha Xi way are wondering when Bev Thompsen is going to get a Sigma Nu pin. The shadow knows! Another Alpha Xi, Pat Black, seems to have gone off the deep end over Beta Theta Pi. How's the Water, Pat? And the wedding bells will soon y be ringing for Sig Ep Dave Port-r wooa ana ni kj jviary tamp, January 18 is the date set for the big ceremony when these two will go on a permanent hook-up. Jaw Breaker. The female population of the campus is on the look-out for the gal who put Sig Ep John Brower out of circulation by breaking his jaw over the holidays. John, more popularly known as "Mumbles," remains "N. C." And over at the Phi Psi house we have the man who is surrently featured as "Whispering" John Ayers. May be these two should get together. Another romance goes on the rocks. Alpha Chi Ann Webster and Sig Ep Art Tirro are ready to call it quits after several weeks of feudin'. Well, it was nice while it lasted. Smoe Ackerman, N. U. footbal ler, had little trouble getting around stiff arms until he tried to gain ground on the Kappa iront porcn. mat sun arm with front door has him stymied.
