Double Trouble ...
Dixie Or Doana, Who's Who?
Friends, Family Mix Up Twins
"Dixie! No, I'm Donna."
. Dixie and Donna Borgaard,
twins from Lincoln, have to say
these words countless times dur
ing the day.
As freshman students at NU
they are often asked the question
"which one are you," not only by
teachers, students, and relatives,
but also their mother.
Dixie and Donna are the same
height and weight. They are both
Mthanded and and received the
same grades throughout school.
Golf is their favorite sport and
some students label them as "reg
ular pros." Donna, this summer,
v on the consolation honors in the
v --man's division of the City
tf '". 'nament.
Many funny incidents have hap
pncd to them. In fact, they seem
to have hilarious times every day
bcmse of mixups.
When they were five years old
they both received new snow suits.
Playing around the yard they
jumped over a fence around a
flower bed and both tore their
snow suits in the same place.
(Thre guesses where, and the first
two don't count!)
A few years ago the movie "Son
of Lassie" sponsored a contest to
name kinds of dogs after seeing
the pictures. The winner would
receive a collie. Not knowing
Donna entered the contest, Dixie
entered too. As a result they tied
for first place and received a col
lie named Laddies which they still
have.
Dixie answered the door one
night to let in Donna's blind date.
"Are you ready to go" was asked
Dixie after a few minutes and she
promptly replied "no!"
He proceeded in giving her a
long line of talk about girls never
being ready for their dates. When
Donna entered the room the girls
faced a slightly embarrassed
young man.
Since we are in the heart of our
football season . your reporter
asked them what they thought of
the games. "We have a motto we
use every Saturday," they said.
"We're out tw'in!"
When asked their favorite school
subject, they answered French.
They are in their fourth year
French. Their major is undecided,
but both are in the same curriculum.

ISA Open
Meeting Called
For Today
"After Stalin who and what?"
This Question will be answered
by Maurice Hindus, Russian-born
author and reporter, at the next
all-Universitv convocation. Nov.
19 at 11 a.m. All classes will be
dismissed.
Hindus' life reveals the pattern
of his lectures and writings. When
Hindus was 14 years old, his
father died. He then left Russia
and came to America. Here he
worked as an errand boy, while
he learned the English language
at night school. He later attended
Colgate university and Harvard.
As a free-lance writer, he spent
several months in 1922 with the
Russian Doughobars in western
Canada. Then Glenn Frank, Cen
tury magazine editor, com
missioned Hindus to go to Russia
to write about conditions there .
The resulting articles event
ually became his first book "Red
Bread." He has since written
eight other books, including an
autobiography and two novels.
He recently completed a special
assignment for his publisher,

Keltner Speaks
To NSA Group
At Luncheon
Dr. John Keltner, University of
Oklahoma staff member and
president of the Central States
Speech Association, spoke Satur
day at a luncheon in the Union. It
was part of the annual meeting of
the Nebraska Speech Association.
The meeting was conducted by
President Walter H. Murrish, pro
fessor of speech at Nebraska Wes
leyan. Participants in the program in
cluded Mrs. Elizabeth Reeder,
Northeast High School, registra
tion; Dallas S. Williams, director
of the University Theatre; Miss
Norma Hansen, Lincoln City
Schools, speech correction.
Miss Jean Kinnie, Grand Island,
forensics; Walter Mueller, Concor
dia College, fundamental of speech
teaching; Bruce Linton, University
of Omaha, and Phil Allen, KOIL
newsman, the place of radio in
speech education.
About 150 Nebraska high school
and college speech teachers were
reports, the Student Directory
staff has had a few little pro
blems. The information which they
received on some of the blanks
they asked to be filled out has
proved to be slightly confusing.
One of the things requested
is the college which the student
is in. Evidently what flashed
flashed into some people's
minds was, "College Uni
versity of Nebraska."
And that's exactly what some
of them put down.
. Then too, the reasoning be
hind "fraternity or sorority"
must have been "male or
female,' ' because one card
came up with "sorority" printed
boldly in the blank.
After that, how is the Direc
tory staff to blame for those
annual inaccuracies?
Wafer Supply
Checked Daily
For Pollution
Did you know that your water
supply is checked daily for all
types of pollution? A sample of
water is taken from the Ashland
main at 26th and O streets and
throughly checked by the Bacter
iology department of the Uni
versity for pollution caused by
sewage and non-sewage.
Durine each month, nearly 100
tpsts arp marie from samples of
water taken from different spots.
Fermentation tests, among others,
reveal the number of narmiui
bacteria in the water.
All laboratories which examine
water must be certified oy tne
United States Public Health serv
ice. This assures regular inspec
tions with standarized tests. The
inspections include checks on ap
paratus such as incubators, steril
izing machines, media used, and
even thermometers.
Water is filtered naturally ana

The first check on the water is
made at 26th and O street plant
after it reaches Lincoln. Then the
water goes to the A street pump
ing station, from which it is piped
to all homes, business establish
ments and public places.
Safety measures include cmor
ination of water with a second
check made at the pumping sta
tion for pollution. Through this
we are assured of completely safe
drinking water.
Miss Elizabeth Johannaber from
the board of missions of the
Methodist church an dthe Student
Volunteer Movement for Chris
tian Missions will be on campus
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs
day, Oct. 16 through 18.
She will tell of the program of
the sixteenth quadrennial SVM
conference to be held at the Uni
versity of Kansas, from Dec. 27,
1951, to Jan. 2, 1952.
The theme of the conference
is "Christians in a World in
Struggle." This year is the time
to find a place in God's pur
poses by re-examining, in the
light of what God is doing, our
culture, our home and foreign
missionary movements, our
churches in North America, our
own lives to find out why we
seem so inadequate to meet the
challenges and opportunities
confronting us, Miss Johanna
ber said.

nine-tenths of the people that

She majored in the fields of edu

Miss Johannaber will be the

Amazingly enough, on their
first co-ordinated performance
together, these many bands kept
their ranks in order and their
rows straight.
And, according to directions,
they somehow managed to space
themselves evenly. This meant
three rows between each ten yard
marker and one on every marker
itself. That was the arrangement
from the 15 yard line to the 40.
From the 15 on back to zero,
four ranks managed to squeeze
between each yard stripe.
Then came the actual work.
