A Success? . . .
A letter was published in The Daily Nebraskan last week from j
a Greek student thanking the AUF for its contributions of money)
and clothing to Greek students.
Made possible by the World Student Service Fund, a part of j
the AUF, the letter went on to say that approximately $1,000 enables i
students of Greece to buy books, pay registration fees, etc. Because
of this money, we may rightly construe the letter to mean that
more Greek students were able to reach a higher education.
And other sources such as AUF representatives on the campus.
and WSSF information confirm the content of this letter.
This writer was one of those who believed AUF was just j
one of many campus organizations which met us on every corner j
with a plea for more money. But yesterday's letterip has changed :
our opinion. j
There is no cause fr melodrama or radical plea for international
sympathy after reading this letter. Every sensible student should
see the sensibility and intelligence behind his or her giving to the
AUF. j
The drive will begin Nov. 7. For no other reason than to help ,
foreign students receive a better education, we believe the stu
dents at the University should make the AUF drive a success.

From the
Union
By Marilyn Mooraey
and Hugh FoTlmer
Handshakes, spooks, dancing
and informal coffee hour; all of
these were to be found in the
union's busy schedule this week.
Gladhanding was especially
noticeable at the AWS activity
mart and we of this column would
like to extend a cordial welcome
to all the potential Mortar Boards
in behalf of the Union board. -
The Halloween dance Friday
night gave those who attended
their first taste of the Halloween
spirit. A precedent was set as
Betty Roessler and her fifty
charming hostesses met the usu
ally unanswered demands of the
stag iine. Attendance records will
surely hit a new high with such
hostesses as Barb Young, Donna
Pilcher, Ginny Koch, Sal Pinney,
Donna Ruddock and Jo Hinds.
Favorable comments were heard
throughout the evening on the
Union Ballroom Chamber of Hor
rors. We also think that Norma
Gamerl and Priscilla Jones de
serve a pal on the back for their
fine job of decorating. We won
der if Jack Greer had Union in
terests at heart or if his work was
all to help Priscilla.
Those of us that couldn't travel
to Missiouri Saturday saw the
advantage of the pigskin party in
the Union lounge. The game
seems much closer when one can
watch Marv Grimm chart the
plays and buy apples from Ginger
Meehan.
The Sunday afternoon coffee
hour was even more popular this j
week due, perhaps, to the advent !
of cold weather. Coed Counselor j
otlicers uoroiny torgen anu jjh
Cochran were serving for the occasion.

Chico Slacks
Jim Van Burgh, Dewey Davis, and
Chuck Tremain put their, heads to
gether . . . and out come one of the
best campus clothing ideas yet . . .
slacks by Chico. You'll like the neat
extended waist band, the set-in pock
ets and the smooth saddle stitching
on Chico slacks, in all sizes, tan or
brown all-wool gabardine.

ever, overshadowed his later per
formance. Cay Worcester, blue-eyed at id
blonde, was the ideal typo for
the role of Gretchen. Her transi
tion from that of a naive country
eirl to that of a murderess, was
handled with the proper insight
and emotion necessary to the part.
As the helpless creature domi
nated by Faust, a "superman."
she clearly showed the tragedy
tht w;.s Gretchen's.
Adding a proper and orisinal
cynical touch to his acting Dwisht
Smith made his drhut in his first
major University Theatre role a
success. As the evening pro
gressed, he grew on the audience
in such a way that he seemed to
dominate the Fordid events de
veloping onstage. Although credit
is due to the richness of the role.
Smith made the best of his task.
