THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
With Tongue
In Cheek
By Cub Clem
Most of the campus improvements this fall seem to suit
the students pretty well, but there is one that has caught
quite a bit of criticism. And the gripe centers around one
of our favorite spas the Crib.
It's those darned little individual music machines located
in each booth. We suppose that the main idea behind getting
rid of last year's king-size juke box was to cut down on the
' noise. Then, too, the individual machines will bring in a lot
more money. Even at that, we don't approve of them.
If the authorities think the big juke box made a lot of
noise, we'd like to see what would happen if all the little
machines were turned on at the same time. The only dif
ference would be that the cacophony from the little ones
would sound like anything but music.
And while on the subject, there are those among us whose
souls yearn for something besides Sammy Kaye, Guy Lom
bardo and Vaughn Monroe. Maybe a little King Cole, Charley
Ventura or Andre Previn would not be amiss.
A bigger machine, maybe one of those that plays 100
sides, would be just the thing to suit the various palates
of the music-minded.
We hope somebody takes this to heart. The question may
not be as important as whether or not there will be a stu
dent council, but we think most of the students would appre
ciate an improvement.
