New Fraternity Officers Confer
Pi Xi Comes Out Into Open:
iveo Ciiflrfer
By HICKABOUT CRANE
Special Writer ,
The University Theater's Satur
day evening production of "Who
Knows the Right Name" was terri
ble. The play was so bad there wasn't
any audience to watch the play
except yours truly. (I had to go to
review the darn thing).
One of the problems of the play
was there were too many people
portrayed in the play. There were
so many characters,' and I mean
characters, .that one did not know
what was going on. There was no
unity and the fact that the director
kept running on and off stage made
the audience of one sick.
Chancellor Hardin congratulated
active members of Pi Xi frater
nity Sunday as he presented them
with their official charter and
gave them "open status on the
campus.
. Chuckling at the presentation
and champagne-bottle smashing
party, Hardin told Jam Sensen,
president of the fraternity, "The
work you boys have done to create
interest in the University from
people off the campus is invaluable
We can hardly fail to recognize
the top-flight publicity and chum
my public relations showered on
NU because of you fellows."
Pi Xi, which had operated on
a slim budget for many years,
had finally come back to "the
black" 'shortly after a series of
The Social Side:
Socio World hupls!

Society Editor
The campus' social world was
"all in a whirl" last week with
137 parties, 65 formal and a
witch-burning. It was all-in-all a
gala week.
There was, of course, the Gen.
John J. Pershing Memorial Egg
Roll down 13th St., the Onion Stag
at Delt Woods and the Inner-Out-ting
Society Spring Frolic at Ellen
Smith Hall.
The witch-burning was Idly suc
cessful, bringing a crowd of 17,
985 to Mem il Stadium. How
ever, the witch failed to show up,
as it was her night to tabulate
AWS late minutes.
Thursday was pinmate-thr ashing
day, and 165 pinmates were beat
en between 11 a.m. and noon. Only
three of these were coeds.
Marriages: ;
None reported. It appears that
everyone is waiting for June
(known as "Black June").

Here, he was concerned with research

speed memories. Bob studies systems
which operate on "real tune," and
his immediate problem is to analyze

robberies were reported by down- es Pi Xi has left' at almost all
town banks. Sensen said, howev
er, that the activation of the Ne
braska Chapter had nothing to do
with the trouble but replied that
contracts had been signed to pur
chase a new chapter house.
"One of our alums, J. Colbering,
is working on the plan to purchase
International House," Sensen re
ported. "He has the faculty fixed
and has put the old charming
approach on the foreign students
over there , to get 'em out but
fasti" Sensen said that the fra
ternity would hold a cocktail party
at the chapter house the night of
Ivy Day and welcome all cam
pus Greeks.
Chancellor Hardin and another
alum of the Pi Xi fraternity,
Frank Hall Green stated at the
dinner that the local chapter was
re-instated following a series of
"good deeds" done for and about
the University. -
"We will all remember the fine
modern art work done on con
vertible canvas last spring," Hall
Green remarked." And we can't
forget the charming remembranc-
campus houses.
Hardin stated, "These boys have
worked long and hard to be rec
ognized on the campus. And from
all indications it's not over yet."
He said that Pi Xi would be
given a special job of responsibili
ty at the coming Interfraternity
Council Ball
"Who's better qualified to han
dle the bar out there than these
remarkable Cornhuskers?" alum
Hall Green queried. He said that
following the special dinner Sun
day evening the members of the
fraternity would all be invited by
another local alum living on Have
lock to a special blast.
"After all," president Sensen re
marked, "it's so silly to keep sub
rosa about these little extra cur
ricular activities. We all know our
alums have made it. to the top
even if they were floating. So why
not give guys a chance to start
right here on the campus?"
At the meeting special cups
were presented to tha alums who
were most proficient in the frater
nity's recognized specialty. .
The ugly scenery was contrasted
by the beautiful costume of the
stand-in man who was constantly
standing in for the leading lady
and others.
Throughout the play the audience
booed the actors and actresses.
The leading lady, Candy Sherniso,
was lousy in her portrayal of
Angie, Lockle, Marie, Bastel,
Crounchy Agatha and Gabriel.
Having so many names to portray,
she could not tell when she was
one or the other. Her career in

"Emerson is a growth company entering a terrific spiral of expansion ff:3
a solid base . . . just the place for the ambitious graduate.4
"You're in on the ground floor of a fast-growing
established company when you take on a job with Em
erson Electric. A vigorous, planned expansion pro
gram in our aircraft, electronic, and commercial di
visions makes Emerson distinctly a "growth" com
pany with wide-open opportunities for young men.
We are at work on a great variety of projects, many
of them fascinating jobs including aircraft of the next
decade.
"And believe me, it's to your advantage to get into
a medium sized company. For one thing, you're in
close touch with top management. They really get to
know you as an individual, not as a cog in a giant ma
chine. They give you a chance, too, to put your own
theories into practice. If you have a new idea, they'll
give it a try. Emerson's future is big. Your future can
be big, too, as an Emerson engineer!'
Harry William's Emerson career is a good example
of the diversification of experience Emerson offers its
engineering personnel. With his M.S. in Electrical En
gineering under his arm, Harry came to Emerson in
1949 as Calibration Engineer in production. Next po-
sition-flight Test Engineer and from there pJ
Flight Test Project Engineer, to Assistant Dev.- ,

There you have Harry William's current career I
at Emerson. .
Here, in brief, is a sample of Emerson's divers
tion of projects: the Commercial Division, est"
in ISO, ranks among the leaders in tract3) h;-
Eower motors, fans, and includes air' conditio
