'flu' Offers Good fame For By PAT PECK Feature Editor The University now seems to, be in the clutches of its own pri- vate epidemic, The name for what ails us seems uncertain, but the little three letter word that you can tag on anything, namely "flu," seems to take precedence over the rest. Rumor has it that at least 500 of us have it, so it's not a mark of individuality. The Student Health center is entertaining a full house i ana giving tuu unu tuunui l iu countless others. Apparently the University is not alone in its epidemic. Omaha has had a similar experience with the same type of affliction since the first of the year. Sev eral students have been taken home from the University to recuperate. Comments on, cases and effects of, the "bug" are varied and all 8 p.m. in the Arena Theatre, Tem ple Building. Lynne Morgan, dramatic student with two seasons of summer stock experience, will play the title role. She will por tray the eccentric daughter of a European nobleman whose main actions are directed toward the seduction of her father's valet. Jack Babcock, graduate drama student, will be cast as the valet. Christine, the maid, will be .played by Sue Nuenswander, senior majoring in tngnsn. Al Hazelwood, graduate student, is the director oithe production. The 1 play, written by August Striendberg 100 years ago, is a tragedy depicting a degeneracy of women as contrasted to strength of character and high moral fiber of men.

A discussion of membership will be held at the meeting Command Squadron V fof them begin with the rather stereotyped phrase "I've gud da code." That seems to be where most of the trouble starts, but an Omaha doctor classifies the diffi culty this way. "When it's still in the head, it's a cold. When you'reitation at Student Health.

The head cold, angry perhaps at being neglected, drops to the chest, gives you a fever and an ache-all-over sensation. Then you have to go to bed. Then your throat gets sore and scratchy and then your voice rasps like that of a comic-book thug. And then somebody tells you that even if you recover the bug still makes his borne in this area until March.

The best cure for "flu," ac cording to men-in-the-know who charge for information but give it out free of charge to be printed in various publi cations seems to be rest.
