Filley, chairman of the University of Nebraska rural economics department, wis re elected overseer of the Nebraska State Grange at the organization's annual meeting held on the col lege of agriculture campus this week. All officers will be installed on the closing day of the 1948 Grange session Thursday. Highlighting this year's Grange session will be a "fun-feed" ban quet, sponsored by the Goehner Grange on Ag campus Thursday night. Speaking before the Grange Tuesday, Eryan V. Holmes, re elected State Grange master from Milburn, hit at "some" city news papers and magazines charging them with over-emphasizing the price support program on agri Cultural products thus "leaving the impression that this is the main reason for the high price of food." Food prices. Holmes stated, are hih, but not as high relatively as non-farm income. Food that cost the average consumer 23 percent o( his income in 1939 now would cost 20 percent of current income, he said. 1UKW An Adventure in Good Smoking (IqqisL-QuiiWiSL I asked for comment in my first column last week, and I was over joyed to receive some just the other day on the recent Farmers Formal. And, as promised, I will pass on the bit of information. This person was interested in the administration of the annual rustic dance, and he was con vinced that the recent presenta tion of the queen was worse than usual. As a remedy for some con fusion, he suggests that the stu dents of the campus be allowed more of a hand in planning the event. "After all," he counters, "isn't the Exec board opposed to represent the campus?" I father he means that there are times when the campus could better represent itself, and, if so, his point is well taken. I'm sure the Exec Board would be happy to be relieved of some of the re sponsibility for the dance, exclui inp, of course, finances. Ag college freshman really r.s serted themselves at the Ak-Sar Ben show in Omaha last week. Two active 4-H men from the campus, Glenn Moritz of Lexing ton and Clayton Yuetter of Eus tis came up with duplicate fine performances. Glenn received a purple ribbon for his lamb at the show and was also judged grand champion sheew showman for the contest. Clayton received a purple ribbon for his Hereford heifer, and re reived the grand champion cat tle showman award. Both men are from Dawson county and have competed in 4-II i together for several yeats. Pre-1 vious to the Omaha show, they had been named fold medal showmen at the State Fair, and they also exhibited prize win ning stock there. Alice Mathauser, ag union so cial director, wants to clarify a couple points for students in gen eral. She says she is in favor of students making themselves at home in the union but . . if they put their feet on chairs, drop NU Poultry Man Accepts New Post Ralph A. Benton, extension poultryman at the University for the past two years, has resigned to accept a position with the Il linois Normal University at Bloomington, 111. He will work in the Vocational Education depart ment. Benton's family expects to join him when housing is available at Bioomington. ashes on rugs, and wear hats at home, I'd just as sdon they would not become adjusted here." As a former janitor, (and, of late, a prime offender), I know whereof she speaks. The mess that is created in the union lounge seems unusual for civilized peo ple. But are college students really civilized?
