Winterized tires and mud-snow tires may or may
not stop somewhat shorter on glare ice than con
ventional tires made of natural rubber, but tire
chains stop much shorter. Not shown on above
charts but generally understood is the fact that
tires made of cold synthetic rubber which wears
better skid or spin 10 to 35 per cent more than
SAFE WINTER DRIVING "Tips" from National Safety Council
J Get the "feel" of the road
' by trying your brakes while
driving slowly and when no
other vehicles are near.
2 Keep your windshield and
windows clear of snow and
ice, fog and frost. Be sure your
headlights, windshield-wiper
blades, and defrosters are in
good working order. You must
see danger to avoid it.

'Progressive'
"The University's art depart
ment is as alert and progressive
as any university in the country."
That's the opinion of Duard
Laging, head of the art depart
ment, after a travel tour of
many art schools throughout the
country.
He made the statement Sun
day afternoon at a faculty art
exhibit at Morrill hall.
Paintings, sculptorings, photo
graphs and ceramics, all com
pleted by the staff, were on dis
play. An outstanding advancement
In watercolors by Gail Butt was
one highlight of the exhibit.
Others were Tom Sheffield's
work in ceramics and David Sey
ler's pastel chalks. Peter Worth
has made some typography and
layout designs which are on dis
play. His work with Cuban ma
hogany in sculptoring is also
displayed.
Mrs. Katherine Nash has in
the exhibit some work with cast
alumimum sheet metal and
welded material in three dimen
sional sculporing.

natural rubber. Tests were made at Clinton ville,
Wis., by National Safety Council's Committee on
Winter Driving Hazards. This committee consists
of public officials and automotive and safety engi
neers. Tests were made to end confusion over
conflicting claims which involve traffic safety
during winter months.
Use tire chains on ice and
snow. They cut braking
distances on cars and trucks 40
to 70 per cent and provide
needed "go" traction. Even
with definite help of chains,
careful driving is necessary.
C Adjust your speed to road
and weather conditions.
Slow down on wet, snowy or
icy roads so you can stop
when you have to.
M. Follow other vehicles at a safe distance
remember that, without chains, it takes from
3 to 12 times as far to stop on snow and ice as
on dry concrete.
Want Extra College Credit?
Try NV Extension Division
Everything from fine arts to
social disorganization. The Uni
versity's extension division has
announced that it will offer 60
different courses for the coming
semester.
Classes will take place at night

tural hall, 11th and R street
Bulletins will be mailed to those
calling the division office.
Evelyn Splichal, extension di
rector, stated, "In the light of the
present national emergency, the
division believes that its evening
program will be doubly import
ant to many people."
Miss Splichal added that the
extension courses are valuable
for many reasons. For instance,
teachers may, among other things
earn additional credits for cer
tificate renewals.
People wanting to gain an in
sight into today's problems may
be interested in such subjects as
foreign government in politics or
comparative economic systems.
There are also several courses
offered which deal with problems
affecting people in their family
lives. Two of those are Mar
riage in the family and social
disorganization.
Other courses are: beginning

However, campus students are

Rosenlof Sees
Marked Drop
In Enrollment
Student registration for the
second semester term is expected
to show a drop of about 17 per
cent, according to Dr. George
W. Rosenlof, director of admis
sions. Rosenlof estimated that be
tween 6,500 and 7,000 students
would be in school second sem
ester as compared to the 8,078
students enrolled this fall. The
marked drop is explained by the
war emergency.
Final registers tion figures are
not expected to be compiled un
til graduate registeration is com
plete. This will be some time
following final exams. Graduate
registeration is not normally fin
ished until after second semester
begins.
Registration fees will be paid
alphabetically during two days,
Jan. 22, A to L and Jan. 23, M
to Z, instead of the three days
as previously announced.
Payment of tuition fees will
be in Grant Memorial.
Dropping and adding classes
will begin Jan. 29 and end at
noon Feb. 17.
The university ruling which
restricts a student adding or
dropping a class after Feb. 17 is
in effect because of the new vet
erans administration law.
The government will not pay
a veteran's subsituant fee or tui
tion after the third week of
school, therefore according to
Dr. Hoover, "What ever applies
to the veteran, must also apply
to the non-vets In school."
Previous to the new rule, a
student was permitted to add or
drop a class at any time.
Arnold Society

The Arnold society will meet
Tuesday, Jan. 9, 2 p.m., in the

High
Frequency
By Art Epstien
Well, it has finally happened,
regardless of the effort that was
spent to prevent it. The price of
phonograph records has been
raised ten cents. According to all
that are con
nected with ' i.
the industry
the price hike
was unavoid
a b 1 e. II o w
ever, every
one realizes
that the cost
of living has
zoomed s k y
ward, and as
a result the
cost of pro
ducing a wax
Epstien
went with it.
Everyone will
agree though, that the recording
companies should be given a
cheer for the admirable way
they have kept the cost down
for such a long time.
Students have been bombard
ing the local record shops and
the program service for the rec
ord "Tennessee Waltz" by Spike
Jones. This disk is a great take
off on the song that Patti Paige
has put over so well. It is com
posed of the typical Jones' gun
shots, 4ell, "burps," etc. The
duet does a remarkable job of
having you believe that the song
is being sung by a couple of
Mickey Katz's vocalists.
Now that you know something
about the song you too may wish
to add this saucer to your col
lection. So you dash to Haun's,
Walt's or Dietze's to obtain the
record. To your dismay you find
that it has not been released yet.
The way that the song has been
popularized is that it has been
played over the radio stations.
That is because it is the policy
of the recording companies to
send to the stations releases be
fore the tunes hit the commer
cial market. Whether this is a
good policy is not for me to de
cide. All that I know is that it
raises eeneral havoc with the
store owners who can not supply
their customers with the records
they want as soon as they want
them. I assume that the reason
that the cuts are released to the
radio stations early is because
you, the buyer, have a chance to
get familiar with the record so
that you can obtain it if you de
sire. All of the music stores of
the city ask that you have pa
tience if your favorite record is
not in yet, and they promise that
they will do their best to stock
the recordings as soon as pos
sible. George Shearing and his quin
tet have grooved another hit that
will capture your sense of rhythm
as soon as you hear it. "Roses
of Picardy," usually a semi
classical is done by the quint in
an unusual manner. With Shear
ing, who, by the way is blind,
on the piano, Chuck Wayne on
the guitar, Marjorie Hyams on
the vibraphone, John O. Levy on
the bass, and Denzil Drest on
the drums, you can enjoy about
three minutes of solid music lis- j
tening.
The lady that was chosen as
the best gal singer in a recent
jazz poll, Sarah Vaughn, has
proved her worth on the release
"Perdio." With the orchestra un
der the direction of Norman Ley
den, Miss Vaughan shows what
she can do to a song. For a tune
that has a lot of bounce to the
ounce hear Sarah Vaughan do
ing "Perdio."
That's all, Paul.

Movie to Show
1950 Husker
Grid Thrills
Football fans of the Cornhusk
ers will have an opportunity to
see the Husker gridders at their
best when the N club presents,
"Cornhusker Football Highlights
of 1950," Wednesday, Jan. 10, at
7:30 p.m. in the Coliseum.
The 50-minute sound movie
will show the top action plays
of the 1950 season. The movie
has been compiled and edited by
the University athletic depart
ment. It features the outstanding og
fensive and defensive plays of
the Cornhuskers and the running
of Bobby Reynolds coupled with
the accurate passing of Fran
Nagle. Plays by other Huskers
backs will be shown along with
some shots of the top defensive
action of the season.
The proceeds from this film
are to be used to help Mrs. Dick
Hutton defray the expense in
curred during the illness of her
husband. It is hoped that it will
be possible to establish a track
scholarship to commemorate the
former great Nebraskan athlete.
Dick Hutton obtained eight
letters while at the University,
lettering all four years in football
and track. He was one of the
outstanding sprinters of the Mid
west and was an All Big Seven
halfback selection. Besides being
a top-flight athlete he was an
honor student.
The N club has been working
to make this event a success and
a tribute to an N man who exem
plified the ideals of the wearers
of the N letter, according to the
N club men planning the movie.
