On the Shin
By Walt Meininger
There's a lot of talk going on around the state about the social pathology classes taking a sleeper
Saturday. Every-

Jack O'Hara must have had a tough time explaining why he stopped off at the Pi Phi party Saturday night after he returned from the track meet at Lincoln. He was supposed to go right to the Kappa house.
The Gestapo at the Alba Chi house has seen to it that the bottom few bars are missing from the fire escape but a little examination reveals that somebody with muddy feet either scrambled up or down since the recent rains. And there shouldn't be any mud upstairs.
The psychology student who handed in a term paper for Social Psychology on Freudian Dichotomies yesterday must have done of lot of research. He misspelled both Freudian and Dichotomies.
Even worse than that is the graduate student in Economics who just turned in his thesis with the word economies misspelled on the title page.
The real Kappa Sig party didn't start until early Saturday morning. An eight o'clock the boys were just hitting their stride.
The Pi Phi freshmen went out last night to disturb people at their pre-final cramming with a farce serenade. The Phi Gams heard them coming, arranged a deal with the Phil Delts.
As the girls approached the Phi Gam house the brothers met them with a hose full of water. When the pledges retreated squealing toward the Phi Delt house they were caught between two fires; the Phi Delts had a hose too.
Seeking refuge in their cars the Pi Phi's discovered that enterprising Phil Delts had hidden them. All in all the lads on the east side of the Hill put the dampers on the serenade.

News Continued From Page 1
Waiters Strike--ras—important communications centers in the North.
Legibly written and with all the formality that a law student would muster on the spur of the moment, the "ultimatum" included complaints on hours, pay, and treatment.
"The most important reason (for quitting) is that the last day before our Easter vacation we were suddenly called together and informed that from that time on . . . the only way seen clear at this time, rather than to lay some of the boys off, was to raise all hours and to reduce or obliterate all cash pay."
The complaint also stated that the crew felt, due to the recent statement of the management that there will be few, if any, part time or University helpers next year, and also in light of the spreading rumor that 'there will be all new faces next year', we feel that we fail to owe the place or the management anything any longer and that our ties and obligations toward the institution abruptly cease."
The complaint continued further with apologies for their shortcomings, but a reminder to the management that its policy has not been one of appreciation for extra hours worked or of consideration for their efforts.
The notice concluded with the statement that the move was a cooperative affair, and a desire that there be no hard feelings. It was signed by eight employees and one "ex-employee, recently retired due to a little argument."
Comment from both sides indicates that although there is some hard feeling on the part of both employers and former employees, there is also an understanding of the motive for the "walkout."
With one of the employees back working at full time at more than double his former pay, and the addition of two new waiters the managers of the Cottage announce that they believe that they can "carry-on" satisfactorily until the end of the year.
Nazis Break---ras—important communications centers in the North.
4. Engaged the British-Belgian forces retiring through Flanders in a battle east of Ghent and southward of that point on the Scheldt river.
The full extent of the German gains and of the Allied counter-attacks can be determined only after further operations on a vast battlefront that is confused and jumbled as a result of the Nazi strategy of striking with mechanized units far in advance of their main forces and far behind the enemy lines.
German parachute troops were being used extensively in an attempt to strengthen and consolidate the lines pushed forward in lightning fashion into northern France and it was reported that the Allies might speed their eastern army to France to bolster their defenses.
The German statement that the channel had been reached climaxed 11 days of warfare through the Low Countries and in northern France and made the Allied position seem as dangerous—if not more dangerous than at any time during the World War.
The Germans still are not as far advanced in French territory as they were at the high mark of the World War, when they surged to the suburbs of Paris. But they have achieved the capture of a channel port, which they failed to do
Furthermore, from Amiens, the Germans are in a position to strike southward toward Paris at any time they can consolidate their positions in the North. And if they succeed in bringing together their vast pincers operations against the Allied armies in Flanders the entire Channel coast will be in their hands—with England only a few minutes away by airplane.

History is on exhibition in Bailey chemical laboratories in the showing of metals from the E.H.S. Bailey collection. The large display cases outside Dr. H. P. Cady's office contain specimens of most of the known chemical elements and the minerals in which they were discovered. The display has been prepared by Mary Elvira Weeks, professor of chemistry.
EAT GOOD FOOD
DE LUXE CAFE
Professor Weeks conceived the idea of such an exhibit following the publication of her book "Discovery of the Elements," the last edition of which was in 1939. The display of minerals corresponds to the treatment of them in the book and is the only one of its kind.
911 Mass.
The Bailey collection was made by Professor Bailey when he was chairman of the department of chemistry, and has been in storage since time. Contributions to the collection have also been made by the department of geology and by friends of the University.
