The Eyes
Have It -
By Jeanne Kerrigan
Basketball had it too . . . just
for laughs we were leafing thru
laM year's Daily Nebraskan files
and found in the month of Janu
ary, 1947, a heated controversial
discussion on the "deplorable
basketball situation" .... How
ever, the participants were not
debating evils of the coach or the
team, but whether bad sports
manship on the part of the fans
was the fault of students or "city
rowdies." The question was' not
"Who won the game?" but "Who
smashed who in the face first?"
(Just to refresh your memory,
there was a near riot on the floor
at the KU-Nebraska basketball
struggle on Jan. 14, 1947, when
an over-excited fan rushed out
on the floor to fix somebody or
other .... no one could figure
out just who was being pushed
around).
Interesting note in editorial of
Jan. 19, 1947, referred to the
Omaha World-Herald's "O Street
Gang" pains how long do
these pains last?
Note to Bob Hunt: Maybe con
troversy over the identity of
Phaedrus, the NSA ar the faction
will not affect your taxes appre
ciably and will not settle our re
lations with Russia or the future
of the world, but perhaps they
are a part of college activity . . .
at least to some of us "young
sters." After all, even if these
things do seem insignificant,
meeting the "trivial" problems
and discussing the "trivial" ques
tions of college affairs might pre
pare some of the "less experi
enced individuals to help face the
really serious problsms later.
Seems the Pershing Rifles are
more than getting their share of
publicity lately .... police raid
ed a faculty-chaperoned Rifles
party the other night after a tip
off that they would find a univer
sity group indulging in . . . horible
thought .... alcoholic beverage
. . . . red faced police soon de
parted after being reassured as to
the complete innocence of said
party.
When Theta Xi pledges took
over the house Monday night and
threw out all persons resem
bling actives, at least one major
catastrophe was reported . . . .
House prexy managed to give
himself a black eye when in
squirming to free himself from
restraining ropes, he fell against a
piece of furniture.
No Student Council.
Student council members are"
reminded that there will be no
meeting today, due to the begin
ning of exam week tomorrow.

Alpha Epsilon Rho actives and
pledges are urged to attend a
regular meeting January 28, at
5:05 in Room 27 Temple.
Postman Thinks
'Lincoln .Star9 Is
'Daily Nebraskan9
Sir Isaac Newton said that to
every action there is an equal
and opposite reaction. But, at The
Daily Nebraskan, to every ac
tion there is an equal and iden
tical reaction.
Tuesday's Daily Nebraskan told
how J. E. Lawrence, editor of
The Lincoln Star and professor
of journalism, got mail at the
Daily's office addressed to him as
"Managing Editor, The Daily Ne
braskan, Lincoln."
Came Tuesday afternoon and
the Newtonian reaction. It was a
letter, addressed to "Walter W.
White, Publisher, The Lincoln
Daily Nebraskan, Lincoln."
Walter W. White is publisher of
The Lincoln Star.
Was it the power of the press
or Sir Isaac's gravitational pull?
DialExchanges

CampnsPhones
Installation of a campus-wide
system of hand type, dial tele
phones has been completed to fa
cilitate efficiency of intra-campu
calls.
. Special exchange numbers have
been assigned each university de
Dartment and activity office. A
telephone directory has been is
sued by the service department
The new procedure replaces the
intermediate use of a central op
erator who asks for the number
requested and make the connec
tion manually. University ex
change numbers have four digits.
To dial a six-digit Lincoln ex
change number, one first dials
"O" and then the regular num
ber. To make a long-distance call,
to report phones out-of-order, or
to get campus information opera
tor, one dials "9."

Wherever there's life, there's sure to bt Hope.
Her wit and her charm claim atnnthn;
With any adventure this missy can ccje
Her rule for success rales a mention:

FULL-FASHIONED
There comes to mind the story
of the extremely ' old lady who,
when asked the secert of her long
and full life, replied .that when
fshe worked, she worked hard,
when she thought, she,, thought
hard, and when she relaxed, she
went to sleep.
To most of us, relaxation is not
synonomous with sleep but the
basic idea behind the behavior
seems quite sound for an old
maxim goes thus: "If it's worth
going it's worth doing well."
This is the basis of working or
thinking hard.
According to James Russell
Lowell, "the narrowest provin
cialism is that of Self." In order
to achieve success in any field
a person must devote himself to
some cause of goal which is
greater than himself something
in which he can lose his petty,
personal feelings and' sense of
kindredship of purpose, working
dilligently to further this pur
pose. Teace for All.
In the heart of each of us there
is the hope that in our day the
world will be united in an effort
to preserve peace for everyone
regardless of the national or per
sonal feelings of one nation or
person.
Each of us owes it to himself
and others to forget himself for
the good of ourselves and others.
Each individual has some
characteristic which makes him
a separate person. It is this indi
vidual talent which must be culti
vated and dedicated to the cause
in which you believe.
The Self.
It is only when you realize how
small and insufficient you are as
a person that you are able to
truly "grow, for it is at that time
that you need something outside
of yourself in which to place your
faith and for which you want to
serve.
There are great varieties of
causes to which one can devote
his time and efforts but whether
it be passing finals in order to
stay in school, working -to put
honesty in politics, whether cam
pus or national, or furthering the
cause of brotherhood thruoirt the
world, you owe it to yourself and
your cause to give it your best.
Ohio Veterans
May Receive
Compensations
Ohio veterans will receive a
shot in the arm when the com
pensation fund authorized by their
state reaches them. According to
Mr. Fleming of the local Veter
ans' Administration office, as soon
as application forms can be ob
tained by the local office and all
the requirements fulfilled and
checked, the bonus will be sent.
The compensation amounts to
$10 for each month of domestic
service (inside the United States),
between Dec. 7, 1941, and Sept. 2,
1945, and $15 for each month of
foreign service during the same
length of time.
There are two service require
ments: each applicant must have
completed 90 days of service be
tween Dec. 7, 1941, and Sept. 2,
1945, and must have left the
Armed Forces under honorable
circumstances.
The residence requirements
state that the applicant must have
lived in Ohio for one year prior
to induction, and must have been
an Ohio resident on the first day
of his active service.
. Those who are eligible should
contact the local VA office as
soon as the notice in The Daily
Nebraskan tells of the arrival of
the application forms from Ohio.
