Law college must be a very funny place. Funny, that is,
if one happens to like dry humor.
The latest tale carried to me concerning that worthy
academy may illustrate this occupational wit that seems to
belong to every lawyer or law student.
It seems there is conveniently placed in the Law build
ing a suggestion box, put there to give the students an op
portunity to gripe about things in general and the college in
particular. The faculty and students know this better as the
"Drop Dead" box.
One morning some student submitted in a suggestion
that students be allowed to smoke during lectures. Dean Bel
sheim posted it on a bulletin board and wrote below it:
"Unfortunately, Nebraska statutes prohibit smoking in
bed or while preparing to retire."
Very funny place, Law College.

Dear University Students:
From the Greek students please accept many thanks' for the
money and clothing you so generously gave to World Student Service
Fund last year. Of the money you raised, approximately $1000 came
to Greece and most of it was included in a fund used for paying reg
istration and canteen fees for exceptional students.
The greater part of the students helped by your scholarship fund
have come to the University from the Interior of Greece, mainly the
devastated areas where their homes have been completely destroyed
and their families broken up. Under Mich circumstances you know
that there is little or no money available to send a son or daughter
to the University.
The students simply come to Athens hoping in some way to find
the money for registration fees, books, canteen fees, lodging and the
thousand other things that a student must have. The only agency
helping the student is World Student Service Fund, and our ability
to help is only limited by the amount of our budget.
The World Student Service Fund office is in the Students' Club
of the University of Athens where we are given office and warehouse
space free of charge by the University. This building contains a read
ing room, health service, restaurant, canteen for the poorest students,
barber shop and coffee house, besides various offices.
The building is now run down and shabby and, like all gover
ment buildings here, needs many repairs. These are slowly being
made, but lack of money of course delays matters.
Membership in the Students' club is required with the registra
tion fees of the University. The students find the extra $8.00 a year
very hard to pay, on top of other expenses. Registration in the Medical
School is about $60.00 a year, and laboratory fees there are another
$20.00 or so. Then there are books to purchase, and most students do
not live at home and have rent to pay and food to buy.
We wish you all the luck in the world in your forthcoming World
Student Service Fund drive, and thank you again fof the help you
have given the Greek students.
Sincerely,
A. G. Elmendorf, Delegate to Greece
(Editor's note: This letter was received by Ted Gunderson, direc
tor of the All-University Fund, and is printed here to inform Nebras
ka students where and how their annual Al'F donations are used.)
To the Editor:
In reference to the editor's editorial, Delayed Action, of Sunday,
Oct. 23, 3949, a few comments. You suggested the Intel fraternity
Council set rush week the middle of October.
I had the opportunity of talking to representatives of Phi Gamma
Delta from all over the nation this summer. This was discussed and
Nebraska was one of the few in the group that had early rushing. All
other schools expressed a desire to have early rushing because later
rushing has never failed to cut an important week out of studying
with the middle of October hitting close to trm six weeks exams.
Also are fraternities supposed to carry empty housing for an un
estimated number of pledges?
' Rush week is an ordeal in itself, without having regular school
work competing also.
About the only advantage of late rushing is getting to know the
rushte better, and choosing men on what they have shown during
that period. As it stands now ,any man who proves himself an out
standing scholar or activity man the first part of schooling will be
pledged a fraternity. A
i- - 'J " ' ' J - luuiiin iUI JiJUJl Ui UUU
reality. Therefore, the present system combi nes this JjrivjnlriP ri1Vi
that of having a week devoted solely to rushing.
Just because this is an element of rush week than can be changed
is no indication that such change will cure the evils of ru.-h week
which predominately eminate from other sources.

CCCCC Mystery
Still Unsolved
More clues are cropping up in
the CCCCC mystery. Up to this
point, no one has correctly de
ciphered the phrase. Today's hints,
however, should clarify the situa
tion. Due to a strange fade-out in
Wednesday's issue, the important
second clue was unidentifiable.
However, with today's presenta
tion of the all-important third
clue, there should be no trouble
in figuring the correct second clue.
CLUE No. 3: The second letter
of the third word is the same as
the third letter of the second word.
