EII o ve 'More Pun'
Ey Jerry Bailey
I don't think that a.iy other
house on "campus has as much
fun!"
That's a typical comment from
one of the girls who live at In
ternational House. Fronting on
'R" Street, "I-House" is the
place where girls from many na
tions meet and live for a year.
Similar houses are present on
many campuses across the na
tion. Nebraska's was founded in
1944.
The house roster includes two
Chinese, two Turks, two Jap
anese, five American Negroes, 16
American whites, one Nisei, and
one girl each from Sweden, Bol
ivia, France, and India. Two Ger
mans, new arrivals on the cam
pus, are also in the house.
"Wonderful" Mother
Benevolent "mother" of T
House is Mrs. Edith Bradley, who
is -described by her charges as
"wonderful." Recently elected
officers include house president
Barbara Waldron, vice-president
Elizabeth Johnson, secretary
Barbara Malm, and treasurer
Mildred Freeouf.
Possibly the most serious meet
of the year is the first house
get-together, when the newcom
ers line up to be introduced. At
that time, they are supposed to
be educated in all the finer points
of life for the year to come. Ac
tually, the girls will learn to
know the house and their new
friends by "just living there."
The foreign students plunge
Into the process of learning
American slang and a good many
other things with vigor. It takes
a while longer for the local ladies
to learn something about other
countries, but they learn.
Native Costumes
On party occasions, or at other
special times, they may get a
chance to see a friend strut her
stuff in the clothing of her na
tive land. In the past it might
have been the Chinese girls in
their boxy, slit-sided dresses. It
might have been Sonia Sookdeo
in yards and yards of Hindu sari.
But has anyone seen a Hawaiian
in grass skirt and lei yet?.

Boom! Boom! Boom! SPLASH!
Wednesday's afternoon shower
f rain didn't stop fcotball scrim
mage, but it did dampen the en
thusiasm of some hundred mu
sicians in the University Band.
Said band was drilling before the
Stadium, Then the rain struck
without warning . . .
Practice ended in musical dis
card. In haste, the band members
plunged from the Mall toward
the Stadium, borne raced to put
instruments in nearby cars; some
attempted to rt the sundry
horns away in cases. The band
members were in too much of
a hurry to even close the cases
in some instances. At any rate, a
good many instruments were
pretty muddy by evening.
The thundering herd that
rushed the stadium door was
brought up short. Locked!
xx33""zz? locked! A hundred
trousers lost their creases. In
spite of the wet, warm feelings
prevailed among the band mem
bers huddled within the doorway.
In fact, it was so warm that the
group was soon steaming.
Confusion ensued when Bob
!hab, who was all wrapped up
in his bass horn, tried to imitate
several trombonists who took
their instruments into the huddle
'with them. iWth Chab, it is
"love me, love my horn." They
both took up plenty room. So in
the end, Bob good-naturedly un
screwed his horn and walked off
in the rain, using the bell-mouth
of it for a hat.
The rain let up, and spirits
rose. As the braver spirits ven
tured out Into the open, the sec
ond installment of the shower
caught them squarely. The band
members retired again to the
doubtful shelter of the Stadium
doorway. Leader Don Lentz be
gan "wonda'ng if he had left his
high-school entry papers for
band day out in the rain some
where. In the end, a flying squad made
dash for the parked cars, and
returned on wheels to pick up
the soaked musicians and take
them home. Traffic officers
never intended the concrete ap
proach to the stadium to serve
as a highway. In case they ask,
those tire prints in front of the
building are just hallucinations.
... Which just goes to prove,
Anything is liable to happen
when it rains.

No Political Talk
Rumor has it that gals seldom
bother their head about poli
tics. If any muttering is heard
in the house, it will mean that
several visiting males are hud
dled in a corner, discussing the
sudden fall of the Conservation
Party in Upper Slobovia.
In the past, International
House has observed Religion and
Life Week by inviting varied
speakers of all faiths to address
the students.
Of what use is International

"International House? Why it's

Wildcats Ready
For Washington
Kansas State College gridders
emerged from their 55-0 win over
Baker University here Saturday
in top physical trim and are hard
at work this week preparing for
their Saturday date with the
Washington Huskies at Seatle.
The season opener did little to
change Graham's pre-season out
look on his team. "I'm confident
it will be difficult for anyone to
keep us from scoring this "year
if we can get our passing attack
to clicking."
However, K-State may be more
of a threat through the air than
originally figured. Quarterback
Frankie Hooper completed five
of 12 tosses for 99 yards gain
and one touchdown. Ends Dick
Johnson, Glenn Channell, and
Francis Starns are tall, rangy fel
lows who have a halfback"s
change of pace once they get their
hands on the ball.
Graham found it difficult to
pick out any outstanding player
in the Baker game. They all did
a great job. he remarked, but
particularly impressive were
sophomore halfback Dick Towers
who ied rushers with 130 yards
and scored one touchdown on an
84-yard gallop, sophomore line
man Charles Thornborrow, who
worked defensively at both tackle
and guard, and defensive tackle
Jack Wallace
The K-State defensive line,
considered one of the team's
weaker points, turned in yeoman
work Saturday night. They held
Baker backs to 34 yards rushing.
Baker backs gained a minus 13
yards against the No. 1 defenders
the first Wflf.
Both offense and defense will
receive heavy attention this week
in getting ready for the Wash
ington contest one of the stiffest
hurdles the young Cats will face
this season.
Kansas State has a tough
three-game road schedule facing
them the next three weeks. The
Wildcats open their Big Seven
season against Colorado the Sat
urday following the Washington
contest, and go to Marquette Sat
urday, October 7.

DO THEY LOOK LIKE YOU?Thcse soldiers standing stiffly
at attention may not resemble you, but you may look like them
somedav. It all depends upon your draft status and the way
things '-shape up" in Korea. But don't be glum if you are between
19 and 26. You'll have a splended opportunity to put your ROTC
training to a test.
Student Draft
Clarified by
With the draft still dominat
ing most conversations these
days, it seems proper for an
other explanation of the entire
draft situation as it now stands.
Those potential draftees who
did not see the first article clari
fying the draft procedure arc-
urged by The Daily Nebraskan
to notice the following informa
tion. Authorities, from Selective
Service headquarters remind stu
dents that there is no r.eed for
students to won? about the
draft. Also nobody is able to
give any advance answers to
such question as: "Will I be
drafted?" and "When will 1 be
drafted?"
Apfnrdine to the Selective Ser
vice, you will keep out of armed
forces if:
1. You are not between the
ages of 19 and 26.
2. You are a veteran of World
War II with at least 90 days of
active service. If you are in a
reserve component of the armed
forces you may, ot course, oe
recalled to duty but not by the
draft.
3. You have been certified to
your draft board as a medical
student, dental student or a stu
dent selected for advanced or
career training by the ROTC, the
NROTC or the Air-ROTC
If none of the above conditions
apply to you, then this is what
you may expect:
Your local draft board eventu
ally order you to report for a
physical examination. At the
present, men being ordered for
such examinations are in the 22-year-old
group. Men 21 years old
will probably report late in Oc
tober or early November for -examinations.
Excuses from classes will be
given students who must report
for the physicals. Students are
expected to come back to school
nftpr thp pvam is comDleted.
Next, you will receive a notice
from your draft board notifying
you whether or not you were

to ask for immediate induction Many alumni had tosk
or a deferment until after yie
end of the school year in June,
1951.
In order to get such a defer
ment, you must:
1. Secure a statement from the
registrar's office showing that
you arc a regularly enrolled stu
dent, doing satisfactory school
work.
2. Write to your local draft
board, re-'O'-""- deferment un
til the end of the school year.
The registrar s s.-aement should
be included with the request, and
the two mailed immediately to
your draft board.
If the draft board sends you
an order to report for induction,
then, there will also be a notice
attached stating that you need
not report until after the close
of school in June.
Authorities state that it is
unnecessary for you to send a
letter to your local board show
ing that you attended college last
year and that you ranked in the
upper half of your class schol
astically. It is important now that you
are already in school that you
do satisfactory "-oHc and that
you request your induction pos'.
poned after you receive your no
tice that you are qualified for
induction.
It is also important for the
draftee to understand that his
induction will not be postponed
unless the draft board has re
ceived a request for deferment
from him.
In regards to ROTC, NROTC
and Air-ROTC deferments, the
requests for such will be sent
to the draft hoard not from you,
but from the Military, Naval or
air force ROTC commanders on
the campus. Their offices will
advise you as to eligibility for
such deferments.

Husker Pep Song Revived;
M iiir
Team Favorite Says
A husker pep song, not heard
since before the last war, will re
wound rrom Memorial Stadium at
the Nebraska-Indiana game on
Sept. SO.
"The Cornhuskers," favorite
song of the Nebraska football
squad, will be sung for the first
time since 1941. The University
athletic department is interested
in reviving this song to stimulate
school spirit.
A faculty-student committee
headed by Rob Raun and "Potsy"
Clark met Thursday noon to dis
cuss the possibilities of reviving
school spirit.
Coach Bill Glassford reported
that the Husker grid squad likes
'Tbe Cornhuskers" and sings it
after each evening meal. He
urged that the old Cornhusker
custom of singing this -sons im
mediately after the "Star
Spangled Banner," at each foot
ball game be revived. This, he
said would give the football team
a tremendous lift.
Discontinued Before War
Don Lentz, University band
director, reported that to the best
of his knowledge, the custom of

song was no longer being sung.
The committee, composed of
the presidents of leading groups
on the campus, both Greek and
Barb, decided that copies of the
'Cornhuskers" should be printed
and distributed to the organized
houses and student groups on
the campus.
The committee urged that
everv "University student learn
the song and join in the singing
at -football games.
Coach Glassford reported he
