Jack Cohan. Cbucb Burmelater Circulation Manager Wendy Oauger Might Newa Editor Poochle Redlger Suppling Supplies . Before the end of the month, the University book store will pack up its stock, bag and baggage, and move to Its new location in Temporary B. Situated just south of Andrews hall, the new store will have a more centeralized location, and business should be boosted. But more im portant, the new bookstore will have room to breathe. And T.1th added space, the store should be able to handle sup plies other than books. Several attempts have been made in the past to ar range for a set-up whereby the University bookstore could carry supplies . . . noteboics, inK ana an tne necessaries, but numerous obstacles lay in the way. Now that the Uni versity store will have the space, the whole thing turns on approval by the Regents. We wish to remind this University directing groj to consider the advantages of a supply Dusmess wnen iz meets next oaiuraay. The obvious tmrrjose of the store is to see that stu dents are supplied with materials essential for th t, classes. An eauallv obvious corallary to this purpose is that the business must be healthy ... it must not be constantly holding its breath, wondering if it can make ends : eet. A bookstore which is indirectly a Duraen on tne suaent s pocketbook fails to fulfill its purpose and in reality offers no advantages to its customers. ' All bookstore operators will agree that supplies are one of their most profitable income sources, that they greatly increase total trade. If the existence or the university is going to be worthwhile to maintain, it must assure its own existence as a self-supporting business. There is no advan tage in having the store unless it is able to handle its own operating costs. A self-supporting store has been the aim of the administration; a supply business will increase the possibility of making it self-supporting. When the student purchases books he naturally wishes to carry out the transaction at the least amount of in convenience. If he buys his books at the University store it means an extra trip to some other place to obtain his supplies. More than likely he will go to the other store in the the first place. So a supply business would have two advan tages in this respect: it would end the extra bother for the student, and it would increase the bookstore s business. If the bookstore, with an extensive supply trade, found itself operating at a considerable margin of profit, it is conceivable that it might even be able to otter supplies at a special, reduced rate. The University store has an un derstanding that it won't sell books below list price, but it is free to sell supplies below list price if business condi tions permit it. When a student, after purchasing all his required materials, finds that he owes a 20, 25 or 30 dollar bill, he is more than a little concerned over finding a way to cut down on such expenses. .." ' In the final analysis, the possibility of arranging for a university bookstore supply business offers many advan tages. The student would welcome such a convenience. Editorial Briefs ; In the last few days before vacation, students will be turning attention to Holy Week devotion. Observance of the pre-Easter, services began last night when approxi mately sixty pastors led discussions at University houses and organizations. An inter-denominational communion service will be held Wednesday evening. The annual all University communion, followed by a pasreant. will take place in Emmanuel chapeL Students of all faiths are in vited to attend the service. In our eagerness, for classes to end, we should not forget the meaning of these Holy Week programs. School and religion do not exist separately; our laim is an integral part oi our daily lives. "Cinderella," the Walt Disney production of the story book heroine, is a motion, picture that should appeal to everyone old ana young alike. Filmed in Technicolor, the picture is show ing now at the Stafe. Enchant ing little heros in the picture are the. bold mice, Jaq and Gus, who are vying to serve Cinder ella. The film is a light, joyous romantic one containing a great deal of enjoyment for the adui ence. Some of the well known popular song hits presented in the picture ' are "Bibbldo-Bob- bido-Boo," the magic words of the Fairy Godmother; and "So This Is Love," "A Dream Is a Wish," "Cinderella," and "The Work Song." One of the laugh highlights is the sequence in which Jaq and Gus, the mice, outwit Lucifer, the cat, to obtain trimmings for a dress for Cin derella. Although in the past, Disney has avoided stressing romantic scenes in his pictures, in this he permitted Prince Charming to exchange a honey moon kiss with Cinderella. "Blue Grass .of Kentucky" Told against the traditional background of the Kentucky derby, "Blue Grass of Kentucky," now at the Varsity, stars Bill Williams, Jane Night and Ralph Morgan. The aetress is cast as the conniving daughter of a wealthy stable owner whose horses are often matched against those of the Major Randolph Mclvcr stables. She is obvious regarding her love for the ma jor's son, Lin, and stages a clever trick which enables the Mclvor stable to produce a derby win ner even though one of her fathers' consistant winners is entered in the same race. "There's a Girl in My Heart" Starring Lee Bowman, Elyse Knox, Golria Jean and Peggy Rayan, "There's a Girl in My Heart," will play as the co-feature. "The Yellow Cab Man" Starring Red Skelton, "The Yellow Cab Man," begins Tues day at the Lincoln. In the role of a zany inventor who just can't avoid accidents, and who gets a job as a Yellow Cab driver in the hope of demonstrating his unbreakable elastiglass wind shield, Skeltcn tries his best to make the audience laugh. When he picks up the first costumer he jams a whole city's traffic, and in other scenes he barely saves himself from electrocution, from gaseous explosion and from drowning in a bathtub. Co-starring are Gloria De Haven, Wal ter Slezak and Edward Arnold. "Cheaper by the Dozen." The best-seller, of last year, "Cheaper ..by . the Dozen", will play in motion picture form starting Wednesday at the Stuart With the Belvedere man, Clifton Webb, Jeanne Crain and Myrna Loy in the leading roles, it is the story of an American family with 12 children. Webb, playing the part of Dad, refuses a request for a . dog "because any pet which doesn't lay eggs is an extravagance, and buys a victrola for the 'bathroom so the children may listen to French and German language records without waste of time. Jeanne Crain portrays a lovable 16-year old who rebels against her father's Victorian ways. "So Proudly We Hall." In a return performance on the screen, "So Proudly We Hail," starting Wednesday at the Nebraska, stars Claudette Col bert, Paulette Goddard and Ve ronica Lake as army nurses who gallantly fought along side of American soldiers at Bataan and Corregldor. The film is per haps one of the best coining out of the last World war. Miss Col bert's romance is with George Reeves, whom she marries dur ing an air raid and spends a honeymoon night in a fox-hole. 200 Prepsters See Ag College Morethan 200 junior and se nior high school girls were, on hand last Friday for a Hospital ity Day at Ag college. . Miss Margaret Fedde, chair man of the home economics de partment, told the girls that the shortage of home economics teachers is most acute. She said that at least 15 high schools will have to close their home ec de partments if teachers are not found. ' Student speakers told the girls about opportunities for well paid Jobs in several phases of home economics. Miss Ann Chamber lin, a Nebraska graduate from Kansas City, Kan., told the girls about home economics in busi ness. ' The 200 girls and the teachers that accompanied them also wit nessed a fashion show staged by As: colleee students. They were introduced to student presidents of professional and honorary or ganizations on the campus, in cluding Annette Stopkotte, Home Economics club; Louise McDill, Omicron Nu; and Connie Crosbie, Phi Upsilon Omicron. if ,:. : T V" m m-l) Wledman Br Pit Wiedman Ship ahoy my hearties!

National Waxhinrton An old admin Istrative standby received major headlines when President Tru man asked congress anew to enact the Brannan plan with its dual goal of 'cheaper prices for perishable crops and direct gov. ernment payment to farmers. In an 1,800 word message to Congress Mr. Truman uiita them to avoid "makeshift legis lation" and get busy on funda mental improvements in a farm program he said would -assure fair prices to both farmers and consumers. As surplus farm goods con tinue . to bolt the national price scene, favorable ac tion to the bill gains more ' , ... - iL- g r o u n a in Washington. 1.- R e vision of permanent laws relating 3 acreage allot- Mi'! m e n t s and m marketing Wilcox quotas, to provide for allot ments "based primarily upon each farmer's past planting his tory. 2.

Washington Senator Mc Carthy received a blast from an influential, member qfhis own party when Senator Lodge R Mass.) proposed in the senate that a 12-member non-partisan commission be created to investi gate disloyalty charges against government employes. Lodge said harm is being done by the current investigation by Mc Carthy and that the present method of congressional investi gation "often besmirches the character of innocent persons, weakens the position of the United States before the world and fails to find the really dan gerous individuals." Senator Lodge added: "All we can learn so far shows clearly that none of the current charges (by McCarthy) has been proved." Washington Senator Mc Carthy charged that Owen Latti more is a Russian agent and the real architect of American for eign policy in the Far East. Sena tor McCarthy also charged that .Lattimore is the instigator of a secret memorandum of Far East ern policies. Later, Lattimore released the memorandum which simply stated that Lattimore advised against "premature or excessive" commitments in the orient. Lat timore stated in the memoran dum that "if here is to be war, it can only be won by defeating Russia not northern Korea, or Vietnam, or even China." - Miss Goddard, after "playing the field," decides that Sonny Tufts is for her. Veronica Lake's love story is tragic. Her fiance meets death at Pearl Harbor. "Wake Island." "Wake Island" is the co-feature war picture.

Located In California in the Sierra Nevada, the range is probably one of the most well known in the world. Two trips are being organized by a Cali fornia archeoligist - mountainier, Joseph C. Wampler. The first group assembles at Lone Pine, Calif., and leaves Whitney Portal July 16, arriving at Tuolumne Meadows Aug. 11. The second group will leave Tuolumne Meadows August 13 and reach Whitney Portal four weeks later. Join on Trail Arrangements have been made for a person to join either of the parties at intervals along the way. It is also possible to Join the travelers for as long a period as wanted. Travel will be either walking or riding with animals carrying the dunnage. The group will consist of a mixed party of about 35 persons. Cost of the four week trip is $205 walking, and $345 horseback. According to Wampler the trail is "not only an outstanding vacation, but an unusual oppor tunity for natural science stu dents and teachers to make ex tended observations in one of the largest wilderness areas in the country. The entire trail Is within the boundries of national parks and forests. Included in the scenery are Yosemite National park, at the northern terminus, and SequoiaKings Canyon National park at the southern end of the trail, Mt. Whitney, Devils Post pile and others. These mountains are the ones often refered to as the "Range of Light." Muir Writings . Some of the writings of John Muir included "My First Sum mer in the Sierra," and "The Mountains of California." The leader of the trip has par ticipated ' in archaeological re search in the Near East under the auspices of the Pacific School of Religion in addition to exploration and mountaineer ing in Europe and North Amer ica. Wampler's address is 1940 Hearst Ave., Berkeley, Calif. References for the leader are: Sierra Club, 1050 Mills building, San Francisco; and American Trust company, Shattuck and Center," Berkeley.
