THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
Annual Hay Fever Epidemic Sweeps M;
Sufferers Anxiously Await First host
It's hideous. It keeps you awake
at night. It makes your room
mate think you're going to die. If
you haven't got it you don't know
what it is and you don't want to.
. What is it?
It's hay fever.
In a paragraph of 14-syllable
words the specialists say that
hay fever Is composed of one
constantly running nose, two
watering eyes, a pair of air
starved lungs and one foggy
voice trying to explain the trou
ble in terms of an atom-sized
grain of pollen from an I-dunno-what.
The disease strikesannually and
euffererg say that August is the
worst month. However, Septem
ber seems to be coming in for its
share in the misery this year. In
fact the stuff is sweeping the cam
pus. It has only one advantage; it
makes good . conversation. What
could be more fascinating than:
"I dodt dnow what's tha bat
ter with me. I mudt hab a subber
code." Such comment is sure to
. bring everybody rushing to the
sufferer in sympathy.
Overheard from a group of
freshman girls conversing at
dinner the other night was a
dialogue running something
like:
"How's the hay fever, Bev?"
"Lots better, that hav fever Dill
really helped."
"You can have another one to
night if you want it."
"Give me the prescription so I
can go down town and get some."
"I don't have the prescription
and I'm not sure you can get it
witnout a doctor, dui you can iane
one of the pills down to the drug
etnra onH '
"Take it to Student Health and
get it cheap."
If Student Health or any
place else can offer a cure for
hay fever, cheap or otherwise,
the idea is worth a mint.
Tn tho nffloes nf the Dnilv Ne-
braskan hay fever is no reBpector
oi persons, a rom Denina juckbu
rinnr and rirawfi shades come edi
torial and assistant-editorial
sneezes. From the darkroom come
photographlcal sneeies. Ana out
front the clack of typewriters is
punctuated with reportorial
sneezes.
Wnt nft "tohition to the oroblem
is offered. We are doomed to suf
fer together until the nrst irost.
A-A-A-choooooo.
Thank You
Dear Editor:
Once again the heart beat of the
people is responding to dire need.
As the waters of the river rose
so did the sympathy of tha un
touched for those who fell victims
to the flood condition.
It is the God-given privilege of
The Salvation Army to serve
people at the time and in the
place of need. This we did without
hesitation immediately it became
apparent that trouble was facing
us.
With confidence that a job well
done would bring its own reward
we proceeded and now it is our
happy and appreciative- opportu
nity to say thank you for your
most generous contribution to help
us meet our obligations. May God's
richest blessing be your everlast
ing portion.
Yours Very sincerely,

Crib Notes
Union Offers Educational,
Parties, Program Services
Welcome to the University .
Student Union.
I hope this first column will be some help in
adding to your college knowledge about the ac
tivities of the Union.
As you probably know, the Union-sponsored
activities are many and varied. The Union is not
only the center of most of the major University
activities, but also the center of dances, parties
and numerous other social and educational pro
grams. Dances rate high on the social agenda of the
Union. The first big dance of the year, the Calen
dar dance, will be held in the Union ballroom
Friday evening, September 26. This dance will e
special in more than one way, for the first Uni
versity queens of the 1952-53 school year will be
presented during the evening. Twelve girls repre
senting the twelve months of the year will be
presented. One of these twelve will be named
the 1952-53 calendar girl. This dance is being
co-sponsored by the Union and Builders.
The Union is again presenting free feature
length movies for students every Sunday night.
The first of these movies will be presented this
Sunday evening. The film will be "You're in the
Navy Now" starring Gary Cooper and Jane Greer.
The curtain goes up at 7:30 p.m. in the Union
ballroom. And, of course, the Union cordially in
vites all you movie lovers to attend.
Aside from the many continuous union-sponsored
events during the year, you've probably
Shirley Murphy
and to your heard much about the special programs brought
to the University by the Union.
The First Drama Quartette's outstanding
presentation of Shaw's "Don Juan in Hell" and
the First Piano Quartette were two of the pro
grams presented by the Union last year. This
year, the Union has already made plans to bring
you Some of the finest musical and dramatic
programs. The first of these will present the
famed Longines Symphonette under the baton
of Mishel Piastro. The Longines Symphonette
gained nationwide acclaim from their weekly
Sunday broadcasts over the CBS radio network.
Their concert will be presented at the Coliseum ,
October 2. Student tickets seventy-five cents.
.
Most University students have already become
acquainted with ever-popular Crib. But the tour
of the Union shouldn't stop there. For those pre
cious moments of relaxation, you might catch up
on the latest books and magazines in the Book
Nook or listen to. music sweet and semi in the
Music room. Cards, chess, checkers and ping pong
are also at the disposal of all University students
during their minutes, hours, or days of leisure.
And instead of lugging those heavy books around
with you all day, you might find it more con
venient to check them at the Union checking
stand . . . it's free, of course.
Now that we've given you your first glance
into the Union line of activities, we hope you'll
be around to investigate some of them. And
here's a note to all male freshmen: you can
sign up for work in planning and executing
many of these activities just anytime. Simply
stop In the Union activities office and sign your
name. It's as simple as that! All interested
upperclassmen are also urged to sign up for Un
ion activity participation.

dding Agenda
Most campus groups have
promised The Daily Nebraskan
that they will throw lots of parties
before too long, so it looks like
a social year is coming up.
But from the looks of the list
of pinnings, engagements, mar
riages and other entanglements,
it has also been a very social
summer.
Several persons have suggested
that this column run an alpha
betical liet of students' names
rather than a jumbled list of pair
ings. That way, everyone's name
would be mentioned at some time
during the year. Sounds like a
noble idea, but for cupid's sake,
we'll stick to couples.
The Sigma Chi's top the list in
summer marriages, with at least
seven members taking the step.
They were

Complicated
Drop-Add
Process Set
Students lust entering the Uni
versity will find the process of
dropping or adding classes a com
plicated one. But if the following
steps are followed much confusion
may be avoided.
After deciding upon a cnange
in their program, students
should contact their advisers
and obtain a drop-add work
sheet to be signed by the dean
f their college.
If a course is closed permission
must be obtained from the depart
ment chairman.
Beginning Wednesday permis
sion of the instructor andor the
department chairman will be
needed to add a course. Upon ob
taining permission a student will
report to the assignment commit
tee with this drop-add work sheet
and class schedule.
If a student plans to drop a
course, he should show his work
sheet te the Instructor of the
course he is dropping and pick
up his enrollment card. He may
be asked to notify the depart
ment chairman so that the va
cated space may be opened to
someone else.
After picking up the card, he
should repot t to the assignment
committee.
?leginniag Wednesday students
may chanfe sections by contacting
the department head.
