Winter has hit Nebraska. Of
course it's been going on for a
long time, but many of the Uni
versity students just noticed it for
the first time when they ven
tured out for several minutes for
the game Saturday. The wind
plows, threre is snow and to make
it worse all this is accompanied
With extreme coldness, especially
on the outside.
Another noice on the weather
conies from Wesleyan. The
seismograph reported that there
was an earthquake in Lincoln
Tuesday. All the time, I thought
the mess was from leftover
Homecoming decorations.
The Social Science building is
one relic that just cannot with
stand the cold. In between classes
a thirty mile gale sweeps through
the halls endangering the lives
of all lightweight students. Just
yesterday one energetic engineer
rigged a parachute. He figured
the upward draft would carry
him to the third floor. Unfor
tunately he miscalculated and was
killed as his head hit against the
ceiling. - I
" ' Now to make life even more
miserable, the - bus lines are j
pulling out of Lincoln. Sounds
like a long trip; it will prob- i
ably cost more than a dime.
It has been suggested that the
Lincoln residents pool their cars.
Professor Snarfle has gone on rec
ord as saying that this is a very
silly idea because if they put all
YW Offers Household Chore
Service To Citizens Of Lincoln
The University YWCA is doing
something different this year in
the way of community service.
Freshman girls now have the op
portunity to serve their commun
ity and campus through various
household chores. The chores in
: elude: baby sitting, washing cars,
: house cleaning, polishing silver,
Ironing, mowing lawns, raking
: leaves or shoveling snow; wash
; ing windows, paintiiig, mending,
; eVinnninff. washine floors, garden -
v ing, polishing shoes, cleaning
; kitchen shelves, washing wood-

so washing dishes.
The work be;ng done by these
Y freshmen girls is probably
tt God-send to many housewives
and parents who would like to
"take day off" from the usual
;, : menial tasks of the day. No set
) fees are charged by the ztrls.
Payment is left to the discretion
I of the employer.
The purpose of this project is to
: raise money for the 1951 "Y" bud

( ful relationship between . faculty
j members and people In the com
jj munity is another goal of this
''A project.
' The "Y" has sent letters to over
47 do faculty members, church

of those pools in their cars, they
would be too wet to ride in. And
this is just the time when every
one should be sharing his car.
It's so cold in Nebraska that
even the birds have gone South.
All but the chickens have left.
And many fans are going to fol
low the football team to Florida
the last of this month.
It's quite a sight to see most
of the girls wearing their long,
heavy coats now. The ends of
their scarves hang down very low,
too. In fact they are so long that
the other day when one girl bent
over a low drinking fountain in
Andrews Hall, her coat dragged
so far on the floor that one Eng
lish major thought she was Prin
cess Elizabeth and started singing
"God Save The King." It created
quite a sensation until the drinker
turned around. It was Monday
morning, and the drinking foun
tain had run dry.
Yes, winter and all its signs
are now here. And if things go as
they usually do, it will probably
be with us for the next eight
months. Grin and bear it.
Students who purchased stu

The booth in the Union lobby
will remain open Thursday and

This mass project has worked
very successfully at UCLA and
the University of Georgia. How
ever, this is the first time such
a project has been attempted
here.
The YW freeshman girlw will
do their community work on the

credited by the American Society
j for Engineering Education, ac
cording . to William . Spricky pro

Nebraska department was one of
the four original departments so
accredited m 1937. -
The student branch of the
American Society of Agricul

There are four specialized-areas

About 40 per cent of the gradu

Figures Insist That Each
Student Will Catch A Cold
By CONNIE GORDON
Feature Editor
From the looks of things, it's
going to be a very cold winter.
Almost every University stu
dent will catcft one and perhaps
two colds this winter. Whether
you like it or not, the sneeze will
be in style again this year.
Though' most people consider
colds bothersome and somewhat
irritating, they don't thing of the
common cold as a health hazard.
They are very wrong. Dr. Samuel
I. Fuenning, director of Student
Health commented that "The com
mon cold can be the forerunner
of many kinds of illnesses. Colds
may also lower a person's resist
ance to the point where secondary
infection can will in.".
Some of these "secondary in
fections" are not so secondary
from the health standpoint.
Pneumonia, bronchitis, pleurisy,
and even tuberculosis may
come from colds. Rheumatism
and heart disease can also result
from the "harmless" cold.
The cost pf a 'Cold , may seem
very sight from a subjective
point of view. However, colds are
the nation's most costly disease.
Colds cause from 50 to 60 per
cent of all absences from work.
This includes the class work stu
dents miss because of the sniffle-and-sneeze
affliction. The esti
mated cost of colds in the United
States yearly is two billion dol
lars. Catching a cold is a relatively
simple process. Some good ways
to do it include jumping around
in the snow farefoot, sitting in
drafts whenever possible and
lowering your general resistance
by getting physically fatiqued.
Now that resistance has been
lowered, the cold virus has v

probably settled in and is pre
paring to make life temporarily
miserable.
If you do catch a cold, the best
thing you can do, logically is try
to rid yourself of it. Some ex
cellent cold-ridding rules include
going to bed and getting plenty of
rest, eating light meals with
nourishing foods and drfnking
plenty of liquids. '
If you want to spare your
health, don't blow your nose like
a bugle. This can force the infection
into your sinuses and eustacnian
tubes. Though you may become a
pam in tne necK xo omers, n is
best to just sniffle.
If your cold persists, be sure to
call a doctor. The cold danger
signals are fever, aches or a rack
ing cough for more than 24 hours.
Call for the doctor at once if u
have chills. The old saying "Better
late than never" doesn't apply
here. "The sooner the better," is
much more appropriate.
