STUDENT
Miss Iowa, Nancy Norman, Returns
To NU After Miss America Pageant
By HAL HASSELBALCH
Staff Reporter
"It was a marvelous produc-
tion! The girls were just wonder
ful and the audience was very re
ceptive!" Those were a few exclamations
made by Nancy Norman in an
interview Wednesday. Miss Nor
man was Iowa's representative at
the Miss America pagent in At
lantic City, N. J.
In Atlantic City she was com
peting: for her third beauty
title in two months. Blue eyed,
brown haired, Miss Norman was
first selected by the Shenan
doah Chamber of Commerce to
represent her hometown in the
contest for Miss Southwest Iowa.
After winning that crown she
was given a trip to Clear Lake
Where she competed for and
won the title of Miss Iowa of
1951.
Miss Norman and her mother
then made the, trip to Atlantic
City at the expense of the Clear
Lake Jr. Chamber of Commerce.
In addition to the free trip, she
received from her home town
backers, a fur cape, watch, three
formals, two bathing suits, a lug
gage set, jewelry, an original
dress, her crown, trophy and other
prizes.
The Miss America contest was
divided into three parts, she ex
plained. A parade in formals, a
talent contest and a parade in
bathing suits. In order that the
audience at each of the three pre
liminary shows could see a por
tion of all three parts, the girls
Were divided into three groups of
seventeen girls each.
Miss Norman was in the group
from which the winner, Miss
Utah, was chosen. Three of the
five finalists were from this
group, she added.
"She was so tall," Miss Nor
man exclaimed, "I was abou't the
littlest in our group." Miss Nor
man is only five feet three inches
tall.
The selection of Miss Utah for
the title of Miss America was a
surprise to everyone, accord
ing to Miss Norman. Miss North
Carolina was the betting fa
vorite, she said. Miss Norman
complimented the winner as be
ing very poised and intelligent.
She thought the selection was
Wise however in that Miss Utah
could make good use of the schol
arship prize. She was highly tal
. ented, dazzling the crowd when
she appeared as Queen Elizabeth
in the talent show.

A great variety of skills and!

NEBRASKA'S MISS IOWA
through the Miss Iowa contest to win the title for 1951. A junior
in the University, the beautiful Miss Norman was privileged to
enter the competition for Miss America.
During the contest entrants
were not allowed to speak to any
men. An appointed chaperon ac
companied each girl at all times.
Even mothers were not allowed
in charge of their daughters.
The one opportunity for so
cializing with males came at the
ball where the girls were es
corted by midshipmen from the
Naval Academy. Miss Norman
was paired with a Lt. Com
mander. "It was the first time
I'd ever date an officer!" she
said.

This is one "old maid" story
that is different.
The story is told about the two
telephone repair men who were
working outside an old maid's
house. Suddenly, the lady heard
a solid stream of profanity coming
from outside her window. She
reported this fact to the telephone
company, who called the repair
men to give an account of the
incident.
Upon being asked, the burly
repairmen shyly looked up at each
other, and one finally stammered
out, "Well, boss, it's like this. Me
and Joe were standing there on
the working when my hand
slipped and I accidently poured
some white hot lead down his
back. Joe was rather taken aback
at this, so he gently looks up at
me and says, 'Really Mike, you
should be more careful in the
future.' And so I says to him,
, Joe, 1 ceriaiiuy win try lo no
better in the future."
Now for the weather story: The
high yesterday was near 75, with
a low of 61. There will be a high
today near 72, with a low tonight
near 50. There will be a fresh
N o r t h-W e s t e r 1 y breeze, and
temperatures will run somewhat
cooler than yesterday. This will
continue on tomorrow with the
high tomorrow near 70. Fair
weather is expected for today and
tomorrow.
A sailor and his girl were out
riding in the country on horse
back. As they stopped for a
rest, the two horses rubbed
necks affectionately.
"Ah, me," said the sailor,
that's what I'd like to do."
"Well, go ahead," answered
the girl, "It's your horse."
Mystery Evening
Something will begin the
evening of Sept. 29th, an in
formed source told The Daily
Ncbraskan Wednesday.
The source added that what
ever it was that would take
place should remind 13th and O
of the Fourth of July.
According to the report, there
will be plenty of noise and mu
sic. But eyen persistent ques
tioning would not force further
information out of the myste
rious authority.
At the end of the interview,
he promised more information
in tomorrow's Daily Nebraskan.

Nebraska Style Of English Taught
To Foreign
When in Nebraska, speak as
Nebraskans do. Foreign students
at the University are learning to
do just that through two special
classes offered by the department
of speech.
The courses, which are taken
for credit, include instruction in
the English language, American
social habits, and listening and
speech training. Miss Lucile
Cypreansen, instructor of the
course, is assisted by several sen
iors majoring in special speech
education.
If foreign students have diffi

of language trouble, they are

ACTIVITI
Student Council opened its
year's activities Wednesday by
unanimously approving a policy
report submitted by the All Uni
versity Fund. President George
Cobel conducted the meeting.
The report, read to the Council
by AUF president Sara Fulton,
included plans for a charity dance
to be held at King's Ballroom in
late October. The dance is to cul-
the papers between 10 a.m
and noon to all buildings and
houses on campus.

that the Communists actually
want to resume the truce talks

On U. S. Aid
ithe Europeans shoulder more of
the rearmament program, argu
ing that the U. S. economy can
only stand so much strain. Gen.
Eisenhower had previously sug
gested from Europe that the na
tions in his North Atlantic army
take a more active part in equip
ping their own troops. These na
tions assert that their own
economies have not recovered
sufficiently from World War II
to accept the added drain of the
arms program.

defense of its oil interests, much
to'ie disgust of the Iranians.
Although the Iranians are sup
posed to be anti-Communist, it
is possible that they will find
themselves beaten at their own
game. Remembering the Soviet
reparations mission in Germany
and Austria, it is a fair guess
that it will be much easier for
the Russians to enter Iran than
for the Iranians to get them and
their influence out again.

It is stimulating experience."
The beginning class in speech
for foreign students meets at
11 a.m. on Tuesdays and Thurs

minate the AUF drive for funds
which will begin Oct. 1.
This would be the first off-campus
dance sanctioned by the Stu
dent Council. Approval still must
be secured from the Faculty Com
mittee on Student Affairs.
The final vote for Ugliest Man
on the Campus will be taken at
the door and the UMOC will be
presented later in the evening.
All profits from the dance
will go to AUF since the mana
ger of Kings will donate the
ballroom for the event. After ft
short discussion of AUF plans,
George Wilcox's motion to ac
cept the report was passed.
Plans for this year's migration
to the Nebraska-Kansas State
football game at Manhttan Oct.
6 were discussed by the Council.
This will be the first trip to Kan
sas State since before 1940. Ac
companying the migrators will be
a pep band of approximately 40
members.
The campus parking situation
was another item on the Council's
agenda. It was stressed that, due
to future Investigation, students
should refrain from parking in
faculty parking lots. If it is dis
covered that too much space is
being devoted to the faculty, the
situation may be adjusted.
Leo Hill, Lincoln business
man, has donated a 10th Street
lot with more than 50 spaces
to be used for student parking.
This new lot will make up for
some of the 150 parking placet
lost during the summer through
University building plans.
Members of the Council dis
cussed further expansion of vot
ing booths for University elec
tions. Last spring's constitution
balloting at which 40 percent of
the student population voted was
cited as an example of the ex
pansion program.
Officers of the Student Council
are George Cobel, president;
George Wilcox, vice-president
and chairman of the election
committee; Miriam Willey, vice
president and chairman of the
judiciary committee. Other offi
cers will be elected at next
week's meeting. , ,
