THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
Thursday, April 14, 1949
H )L L- r
BY EMILY HEINE
Spring is here.
Once again by its very evist
ence the season justifies mention.
(A mention which is just as friv
olous as this thing itself.)
Spring wandered in the other
day, just as casually as you please,
Dut you can t say you weren't
warned. You can always tell when
it s here. There are symptoms.
First of all, the mechanically
minded men who work on build
ings and grounds get an irresis
tible urge to drag out their ma
chines and play games. (In the
improve-the-campus-by - digging-the-dirt
department, they are sec
ond only to the Rag staff.)
At any rate, the progress of the
landscaping efforts is apparent to
all particularly the unfortunates
who spend time near the front
of Sosh. (At least one individual
who averages three hours a day
in that particular place has been
heard offering fervent prayers
that there be no south winds for
many weeks.)
Class-cutters flourish . . lazi
ness creeps in like the plague. The
reactions of the individuals can
be pretty well classified according
to several types.
There's the ambitious gToup,
who realize that spring is the time
for conquests. These smooth
workers turn out 'most every aft
ernoon and evening, to return at
10:30 with detailed reports of
progress.
Ambitious, type B, is getting in
activity points in a mad effort to
equal in six weeks the work others
have done in a year. This in
dividual, with an eye to the fu
lure ana Droiners uenina him, is
well aware that "now is the time."
With honors and offices to be de
cided soon he isn't going to take
a chance on losing cut.
Athletes are out with golf clubs,
tennis racquets, balls, etc. But
it's that peculiar race known as
"sun-bathers' who manages to ac
cumulate the most equipment. The
minority include school books;
most frankly admit that the glare
of the sun will prevent any se
rious study.
A few conscientious souls be
gin letters, but even these soon
discover that it's a physical im
possibility to tan the left side and
write. Eventually most of them
wind up in a bridge game. At the
end of a day there are always
burns to compare, and remedies to
discuss. Current preventives in
clude baby-oil or prepared lo
tions; a vinegar bath is recom
mended burn first-aid, according
to this week's sufferers. (This
writer is skeptical, but you never
know. )
Last minute Easter shopping
has occupied other coeds this
week. The current parade of new
clothes prompted a wise man
somewhere near Indiana to write.
"In the spring a young man's
fancy, but a woman's fancier."

Though sirring seemed to be
firmly entrenched in Nebraska
with temperatures in the sixties.
the weather man promised a bliz
zard in western and northern
Nebraska late Wednesday, aod
over the rest of the state Thurs
day. Winds are expected to reach
40 to 50 miles an hour.
THE LEGISLATCEE passed a
bill Wednesday designed to put
Nebraska on the road toward
school redisricting by a 31-5 vote.
The bill would leave final word
on the re-districting up to the
county groups. Also passed by
the legislature was a bill repeal
ing the community property law
enacted in 1947.
ANOTHER VOICE was added
to the cry that the lack of any
real unification in the armed serv
ices is cwting the nation "billions
of dollars annually" by Air Sec
retary Symington. The issue was
opened by Army Seccrtary
Royall's criticism of the Hoover
CommiM-ion report of Army
"wate."
IN CHINA, the rationalists
were reio:ted to have thrown
back the Communiit forces three
times across the Yangtze river.
The Reds tried unsuccessfully to
cross at a point 170 miles south
west of Nanking and twice at a
point northeast of the capital, ac
cording to the official Military
News agency.
