Lulli Is Still Single No Bluebeard
Bv
T. Scott Cadden
"CARAMBA!"
"Theees ess horreeble! I must estableesh my innocence at once! My reputation has been tarnished!"
Thus spoke Senor Antonio F. Lulli, South American exchange student from Lima, Peru.
"Evereone theenks that I am married. They theenk I am a "Bluebeard.'"
It seems that the rumor had gotten around the Hill that almost all of the dashing young South American men of Senor
Lulli's age are married by the time they reach 20. Naturally, the only conclusion to draw was that this Peruvian was no different from the rest.
Antonio, or "To-To" as he is called by his friends related the conversational trend when calling a sorority house—
Antonio: "Hello", thees ees Lulli speaking."
Girl: "Who?"
Antonio: "Lulli! Antonio F. Lulli!
I am an exchange student from Lima,
Perul!"
Girl: "Oh yes, I've heard of you." Antonio: "Oh have you? That ees good! I was wondering eef you would like to get a coke or a pineapple soda or something."
Girl: "Well, Mr. Lulli, I'd just love to go but I'm afraid I can't. I'm sorry. Good by."
"Well, thes sort of thing occurred several times and I began to wonder ef I was repulsive," said Lulli. "Every seengle time, they would sound all excited until I gave them my name. Then they would sort of clear their throats and say 'Oh, I'm sorree, Mr. Lulli, but I have a date alreadee', or 'I'm sorree, Mr. Lulli, but my roomate ees sick and I just can't leave her.'"
"And then, the other day a girl asked me how mane times I had been married and the light become clear to me. I have been regarded as a cad!"
With tears in his eyes, "To-To" came to us and asked us to please make known the fact that he was not a cad, that he was not a "Bluebeard," and that he was very much interested in "these North American babes."
GIRLS: It is hereby authentically announced that Senor Antonio F. Lulli is not married.

OPA Has Ceiling On Student Rooms
Washington—(ACP)Students living in rooming houses, fraternity houses or commercially operated dormitories which are located within certain "defense rental areas" are entitled to the benefit of OPA ceiling on rents, the Office of Price Administration announced.
They cannot be charged a higher rent than they paid in the 30 days prior to the maximum rental date established for their area by OPA—a date which varies according to area and stretches as far back as Jan.1,1941. This applies to rooming houses in 135 out of nearly 400 "defense rental areas" subject to overall rent control.
Under OPA regulations, the landlord is obligated to provide the same services, sheets, towels, and soap. for example, as he did in the 30-day period without additional charge. If he supplied board along with room and charged a lump sum, he is now obliged to render separate accounts so that the rental figure may not be disguised. The price of meals does not come under the ceiling. If he rented a room to only one person in the base period, he cannot place another in the room without reducing the rent of the first occupant.
Students living in college-owned or operated dormitories do not come under the rent ceiling, according to present regulations although OPA has the authority to include them if it is deemed vital to the general rent control program.
The University of Nebraska is about to begin preparation of aeronautics textbooks for use in high schools throughout the nation.
600 Colleges Prepare Pilots
(ACP) Tens of thousands of men are learning to fly at some 600 of the nation's colleges this year, preparing to serve in Army and Navy aviation.
However, not all the pilot trainees are regular students—college facilities have been opened to all who can meet requirements of the Civil Aeronautics Administration. Any man who can pass the mental and physical examination is eligible, although all trainees must enlist in the reserve of the Army or Navy air forces.
Most Navy reservists are slated to be combat pilots and must meet the standard requirements of Naval Aviation Cadet Selection Boards. They may be college students taking training under the V-1 or V-5 plans.
All Army reservists in the CAA program take their training on a full-time basis and must be men who are ineligible as combat pilots because of their age or minor physical defects. Age limits are 18 through 36. If he's under 27 an applicant must have been rejected from combat pilot training.
In the CCA-Army program five types of pilots are being trained: Glider; Liason—spotter for field artillery and other similar pobs; Instructor—transport oo-pilot either for the Army Air Transport Command, or on one of the airplanes working with it; Service pilot—towing targets or gliders, short hauls of men and materials.
CAA trainees progress through elementary, secondary, cross-country, link-instrument and flight officer or instructor courses. Each course lasts eight weeks. Trainees may be called by the Army or Navy for further training or active duty at any stage of the courses.
After call by the services they may qualify for a commission.
An urgent call is going out from the Civil Service Commission for women fliers. Those who have earned private pilot licenses are wanted "at once" for Junior Ground School instructor jobs paying $2,000 a year.
No age limits, no written test although women pilots already doing war work demanding equal skill shouldn't apply.
Get application form 57 at your postoffice or write the Commission here for one. Once filled out, the form should be sent to the Regional Director, Tenth Civil Service Region, New Orleans, La.

North joins South---- ---- When A Chicken Dinner Is The Issue.
Gobs Still Dance ★★★ Weekends Off
Come in today and enjoy our Sunday special Southern Fried Chicken Dinner
Despite the fact that sailors on Mt. Oread are now being granted out of town weekend leaves, the University co-ed need not scratch Saturday night's annual service men's dance from her K—book. The dances in the community building will continue, and only a slight decreased number of service men are expected as weekly guests.
Chaperoned by members of the individual organizations which sponsor them, the dances are conducted according to accepted USO regulations.
WIEDEMANN'S GRILL
An average of 150 men have been attending every Saturday night to dance, or play ping pong, checkers and other games.
Mrs. O. W. Maloney, who is coordinating efforts on the Hill with those of workers in town to make the Saturday evening recreation periods successful, has announced that a definite number of college women will not be requested to serve as hostesses at dances for several weeks: As soon, however, as the number of women needed can be determined, co-eds will be called upon regularly to assist at the Saturday evening social events.
The dances, Mrs. Maloney announces, have proved popular both with service men and with the girls who assist in sponsoring them.
In the meantime a group of junior hostesses which has been active all summer under the supervision of Mrs. Laurence Woodruff will continue to officiate at the dance although any authorized college woman is welcome to assist at her own provocation.
Before a girl is authorized to serve as a hostess she must have her parent's permission and a written statement of recommendation from two prominent individuals. Once authorized, a hostess goes to the dances without an escort and leaves without one. Permits for CVC members and otehr college women to attend the dances are now being obtained through Miss Elizabeth Meguai's office. Thirty-nine permits have been issued.

Geological Survey Men Participate in Wichita Conference
J. M. Jewett and Philip Kaiser represented the State Geological Survey at the Wichita conference of the Independent Petroleum Association of America last week.
Exhibits taken from the Survey showed the process of extracting aluminum from clay and the new lightweight bricks for refractories. Another exhibit sent to the meeting was a large V for victory, one side made up of Kansas maps and the other a ribbon. Recent bulletins which have been put out by the Survey on "Mineral Resources in Wartime Industries" were passed out.
The new lightweight bricks, made of clay and sawdust, was of interest to the Petroleum Association since refractories are necessary in refining oil.
