IT'S ALL IN THE FALL OF THE CARDS ... For the group in the Nebraska
Union basement who play cards there almost every hoar that the Union is open.

By Ruth Hagedorn -
The noise of the shuffling
cards and the blaring radio
in the Nebraska Union card
room may cause a curious
passer-by to stop and wonder
just what stimulates these
card-happy college men. It
appears that they play for
hours on end, day after day.
And the girls; where are
they?
"Girls don't come down
here because they're passing
and we're flunking," joked
one of the card players. "Ac
tually, we don't know why
they're never here, but we
sure wish they were," said
a other.
This was the consensus of
opinion around the card
tables, although one player
added, "If they come to this
table they'd better have
money."
Some said their card play
ing is a "way to get spending
money for weekends." Others,
like Larry Wheeler said it's
"just a way to pass the time.
It's something to do besides
study."
Still others said that their

You've missed it. All you
people waiting until Dec. 16
to celebrate Betthoven's
birthday, you've missed the
pnrty. Beethovan was born
Nv. 30.
The chairman of the Com
mittee for Bigger and Better
Beethoven Birthday Parties
reported to The Vanguard at
Portland State College in Port
land, Ore., that the musician's
father updated his son's birth
certificate. "He was ashamed
to admit that his son couldn't
play the piano at three, and
had his certificate updated,"
said the committee head.
The Army ROTC Special
Fvces at the University of
H'inois got a practical look
at the art of bridge explosion
recently. They staged "Oper
ation Slay" in Kickapoo State
Park near Danville, 111.
Under supposed enemy sur
veillance, the teams correct
ly demolished a bridge by
strategically placing wooden
blocks of "explosives".
Not an explosion, but a
strong condemnation came
from the Young Democrats at
the University of Minnesota.
They recently passed a reso
lution condemning U.S. gov
ernment and calling for the
resignations of Secretaries of
State and Defense, Dean
Busk and Robert McNamara.
They also condemned gov
ernment officials for withhold

ations with North Viet Nam,

card playing is the result of
their class schedules. "When
you have three hours or more
between classes, there's not
just a whole lot to do," so it's
down to the retreat of t h e
card room, according to one
card-shuffling student.
Discussions don't flourish,
for winning the game is of
primary importance; this
takes concentration. "We
sometimes have a good dis
cussion," said Clark Lewis,
"like one about religion. It all
depends on the game and the
"ople playing."
"We play everything from
bridge to poker," Michael Mc
Donald said. This can be
quickly verified by a check
around the tables.
Sergeant Major is one game
frequently played. "This
game was played in Shake
speares time," Frank Wie-
land explained. A friend
added, "We don't play just
anv game, you know.
The most popular period of
the day for the card room is
lunch hour or from about
10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. ae

day night he distributed cop
ies of a report from a sur
vey of 42 deans of men and
IFC presidents of leading uni
versities which have or had
deferred rush programs.
A 2-0 for pledging and a 1.3
for remaining on the house
rolls were set as averages on
the new four-point scale by
the passing of a set of amend
ments to the IFC by-laws on
pledging.
Also included in the amend
ments is a percentage conver
sion system that sets a 75
cumulative average for pledg
ing men who entered the Uni
versity before this year.
The scale sets 2.0 on the
four-point scale as 75 per
cent, with 5.0 on the nine-
point scale being 77.5 per cent.
IFC will meet next week at
6:30 p.m. Wednesday to al
low members to attend the
expansion session scheduled
for 7:30 p.m. The session will
be on the proposed fraternity
housing complex.

The All University Fund
Drive will net approximately
$4,500 according to drive
treasurer Joe Carroll. As the
drive draws to a close, this
total is about $500 higher than
the 1964 campaign.
This represents a rise of 12
to 13 per cent over last year's
total of $4,000.
So far this year, the drive
has collected $4,345. "We ex
pect" a little more," Carroll
said. The Lincoln drive will
not officially end until a
clean-up in the spring.
AUF also sells pop and ice
cream at Spring Day ana
some organizations have not
yet sent their donations. This
should add over $300, Carroll
said.
The AUFa-Go-Go, which at
tempted to "remove the stig
ma of Auful Night," made a
profit of about $300. This is
about $100 less than the AU-
Ful Night, the AUF special
event in past years made.
"WTe went for a new idea,"
Carroll said. Before expenses,
the AUF A-Go-Go took in
over $1,600 compared to a
maximum of $600 from AU
Ful Nights. Expenses were
higher this year, but in break
ing away from tradition, drive
officials feel there is a possi
bility for higher fund totals
in the future.
The fraternity drive was
substantially more successful
this year than in the past
several years, Carroll said.
Their total of $300 is $300
higher than last year.
Other drives and their to
tals in rough estimate: Soror-

Scholastic Downs
About one half of the stu
dents who received scholastic
reports are doing unsatisfac
tory work in only one course,
according to Lewis Fowles,
assistant dean of Student Af
fairs. Last year one half of the
unsatisfactory downs were
sent for three or fewer hours.
Although there is no estimate
on the number of reports sent
lout this year, Fowles said he
"wo'ild not be surprised if it
doesn't run about the same."
More instructors are send

commendable work than in
the past, he said.
