Page 4 Law Cited Br BABS JELGERHUIS Staff Writer The "chain letter" fad has hit the campus. Lately it has become the chief topic of conversation for students inhaling filtered smoke and clutching their morning coffee cups.

Look Up ICQ MVC, Big Seven Represented By Casts By PEGGY VOLZKE Staff Writer Have you ever noticed the large round plaques in the Coliseum di rectly above the stage? These plaques, bearing college seals, represent the 10 colleges that were In the old Missouri-Valley Conference or Intercollegiate Athletic Association. They include the "Big Seven" University of Nebraska, University of Kansas University of Oklahoma, Iowa State College, Kansas State College, Uni Tersity of Missouri, University of Colorado and Grinnell College. History of the plaques dates back to the year Nebraska Memorial Stadium was built in 1923. Admin istrators at the University decided that In honor of the 10 colleges rep resented in th Misesouri-Valley Vfllley Conference, they would have plaques made bearing each college seal and cemented on the front of the stadium. Plaques were made of steel In plaster casts. The finished steel plaques were put on the front of the stadium as planned and also on the back above the entrance Season Tickets On Sale For Ensemble Concerts ' Season tickets for the Concerts put on by the Fine Arts Ensemble on Thursday and April 21 at 8 p.m. In the Union Ballroom are on sale.

Or Ph. 3-1030 Iter e p.m. Leffleir Bradley seems to have overlooked is that it's illegal under federal law. The "sell your wealth campaign" works the following way. After buy ing a letter for $5, a person makes two copies of the letter eliminating the top name on the list of ten. To this top name an additional $5 is sent. In typing the letter over, the owner puts his name last and moves the rest up consecutively. Then he sells his two letters for $10. According to the letter, when your name reaches the top, you'll be the recipient of $10,240. soloists. It is an entirely new con cent of a colorful pagentry called "Musical Theater." The bright colored costumes, unique and im aginative scenery and unusual lighting of the show produces a startling effect which has been called "a masterpiece of motion, music, and color!" "The Glee Club, augmented by many fresh, young voices makes," Fred Waring recently said, "the most gratifying sound I've heard." He also stated, "We have never sung so well." The show is traveling by chart ered Greyhound Sceni-Cruiser, the new "doubledecker." Wanng's contributions to the musical world on radio and TV have been many and important. Behind the scenes of his perforiri ances is a history of research, study, and experience made by Warning and his organization. They conduct a study of music education, sponsor a national sur vey of music-attitudes among teen agers and co-sponsor the Voca tional Interest Research for guid ing musicians and teachers of music. Waring has, for years, been de voted to a musical career and travels thousands of miles each year conducting choral clinics and music festivals. One of the main purposes for his travels is to de termine the likes and dislikes of audiences. As an individual, Waring is con sidered an alert, energetic man in a wide variety of subjects which capture his interest. One of his hobbies is collecting antique furni ture, glass and copperware. This fall season is expected be an exciting one for Waring be cause of the freshness and en thusiasm of the new young people who have joined the show. They were selected for their special tal ents in personal appearance shows.

The "sell your wealth campaign" is open lor fraud among it s own members Some over-anxious person who has his eye on a new car could easily type t hundred copies, put ting his name first on the list. If he could sell all his letters, he'd collect $500 in just selling his own letter. Besides this method, there is the obvious way of cheating by not sending the $5 to the top name on the list. Since there is no guarantee, the gullible must be protected by the law. Some persons think the scheme is legal since the letter is not sent through the mail. How ever, according to J. A. Bradley, postal inspector, sending the mon ey through the mail completes the fraud. According to Federal Code An notated, title 18, section 1341, frauds and swindles, such a scheme is violating the law and anyone know ingly doing it shall be subject to prosecution.
