BY JANE RANDALL
The men at Ag college abristled
It wasn't that they were dis
gusted because their girl friends
stepped out on them despite go
ing-steady agreements. They
weren't angry with their instruct
ors, either.
Thev bristled in the heat of
competition, and will until the
night of the Cotton-Denim dance,
Bristles cropped up and
cropped out in the form of
whiskers, beards tor whatever you
wish to call them, and have been
in the nurturing process since
plans for Farmer's Fair and the
Cotton-Denim dance got under
way. Ag Men Come Out
In this advent, better known as
the "coming out," Ag men, in
striving for originality, have in
deed come up with some strange,
yet remarkable creations, rang
ing all the way from the plain
old beard and the broom mus
tache to the artistically shaved
sideburns and the delicate goatee.
From this array of facial adorn
ments will come the visage of the
Whiskered King.' He will chosen
by a board of faculty judges.
Thickness length and uniqueness
are the points on which these
men will single out the king-to-be.
Needless to say, these jurors
on the judging squad will ha'e a
variety from which to choose.
'Eric The Red
Among the plain bushy beard
type, 'Eric the Red' with his san
dy sideburns, matching mustache
and gererous growth from the
chin attracted the greatest share
of their attention last year. Go
ing by the name of Roland "Mon
ty" Monteith, he captured the
covereted Whisker title. ,
However, those who pattern
their bristle crops after Abe Lin
coln need never fear. Sideburns
that come half-way down the side
of the face combined with one

Show to Veterans Hospital
Cosmopolitan club will take its
new show, "Midway Marvel,' to
the Veterans hospital this eve
ning for a preview showing

The club took their acts to the

PROSPECTIVE WHISKER KINGS These kings similar to this
year's hopefuls cultivated whiskers to qualify for the title of
Whisker King during the annual Farmer's Fair festivities on
Ag college campus a year ago. The king and the Goddess of
Agriculture will be presented at the Cotton-Denim dance Friday
evening, April 27.
of those painstakingly clipped
goatees are as difficult to per
fect as the style taken by 'Eric
the Red.' Besides, fellows, you
can't all have red beards.!
Santa Claus Rendition
Another rendition that would
be an eye catcher if one could
import enough hair grower to
produce effective results is the
good old-fashioned Santa Claus
one.Let it be assured that it
would be a novelty whether it
came in black, brown, red or
blonde. Woe be unto the enter
prising young man who takes his
pride and joy beard, that is to a
good "cleaning" with peroxide
or some other bleach!
Going from the story book as-
place orders with the workers.
Ticket Chairman Rob Raun
urged students and faculty mem
bers who plan to see the show,
to purchase their tickets early.
"We anticipate a large outstate
audience at each evening's per
formance," stated Raun. "Many
of these visitors will be attend
ing the College Days festivities,
which the show inanugurates,
Wednesday, April 25.
The show will run for three
successive evenings at the Ne
braska theater.
Nightly rehearsals, in progress
for the principals as well as
members of the choruses, are un
der the direction of Dallas Wil
liams, University Theater head.
Take Annual
Dancers may wear costumes if
they wish. A prize will be
awarded to the wearer of the
best costume.
Change from Other Shows
This year's carnival theme is
a trend in the opposite direction
from past Cosmopolitan shows.
Two years ago they featured the
ethereal, "A Night in Heaven."
A Persian slave dance for a Sul
tan and his court jester was a
leading number in that show.
Last year the Cosmos chose a
"Ship Wreck" setting on an is
land in the South seas. This show
also featured the South Amer
ican combo.
Admission price for the show
and dance is one dollar.
NU Debaters
Are Attending
0f .Mock Congresses
1.! " la girls i
Three students and two faculty
members left Wednesday after
noon to represent the University
at Delta Sigma RhoV fifth na-
Uonal student congress in Chi-
caeO.
The students: Doris Carlson.
Joan Krueger and Warren Wise,
and Donald Olson, director of de
bate, and Clarence Flick, speech
instructor, will attend the session
to consider the topic: What fed
eral legislation should be enacted
regarding the United States for
eign policy?
The students will be divided
according to democratic and re
publican parties and elect a
speaker and clerk of the house.
Representatives will be divided
into special committees to study
various phases of the foreign poli
cy. Miss Carlson will work on the
committee for world organiza
tion; Miss Krueger, committee on
European affairs; and Wise, who
i president of the University
chapter of Delta Sigma Rho, will
attend session on Far Eastern
policy.
The group will return to Lin-
coin Sunday. The University dele
gation is in charge of entertain
ment for the banquet.
The congress ih held every two
years.
pect to the more realistic, some
of the contestants might prefer
to assume a villanous role, west
ern style. This type consists of a
busy mustache, parted in the
middle and slightly curled on the
ends, combined with a wide ex
panse of beard, carefully clipped
to produce a "pointy" effect.
Mutton Crop Creation
The mutton chop creation, con
sisting of strategically placed
patches of beard on both jaw
bones thus leaving the area of
the chin exposed, is ever-popular
in the variety parade.
Mr. Laxy, who doesn't care
much one way or the other and
is in the race for the fun of it,
may choose to borrow B. O. Plen
ty's ntorious style.
Good luck, fellows and have
fun! Bet your girl friends will
rejoice, though, when you bring
that razor out of hiding once
again.

State Men Say
Corn Needed
A need for greater corn pro-
Auction in Nebraska in lflSI wac :
voiced by a four-man delegation
fron th is state attending a re.
gional agricultural production
meeting in Des Moines.
The Nebraskans came back
from the Des Moines gathering
corn production. Secretary of I
Agriculture Erannan told the rep-1
resentatives of 11 midwest states j
of the national meat. He pointed
ikM ,j
out that reserve stock of corn are
shrinking and more corn and other
feed grains will , be needed for
livestock feeding. He emphasized
that the present "surpluses" will
probably be wiped out soon un
less the 1851 production is high.
Those attending from Nebraska
were Frank Reed, chairman of
the Nebraska production and
marketing committee; Clyde
Neyes of the agricultural exten
sion service at the University; E.
G. Jones of the soil conservation
service; and Ernest Frish of the
farmers borne administration.
Reed said the Nebraska "guide
for li51 is 7,850,000 acres of corn.
The March estimate of the De
partment of Agriculture indicated
at that time that farmers were
planning on planting around 7,
048,000 acres or only m of the
guide. However. Reed said the
Nebraska acreage may be stepped
up due to the lateness of the sea
son and abandonment of winter
wheat.
Jones and Ncyes stressed the
need for vise of conservation and
recommonded cultural practices
in getting needed production.
Noyes said the vise of good seed,
barnyard and commercial fertil
izers and weed control would go
a long way toward increafcing the
total production of corn jn Nebraska.

camp in Bremen, Germany.
There they will not only see the
country but they will meet and
work with students from France,
Italv and other European na-
tions. In the past this has been . , L TIT offers a ten

tunities but they stress the for
mation of strong friendships be
tween European and American
students.

riod. Persons on this tour may
