To- night we saw the outline of the school year as our church, our school board and our faculty have designed and planned it for usg and to-morrow we 1'egister. SEPT. 16-Registering the last two days has set me to work on a new theory, formulated in words it is: Approximately one-half of the average person's college life is spent in waiting. The proof has accumulated overwhelmingly during this process of registration. And I'm not thru yet. SEPT. 18-Tonight, at what we call in college phraseology The Faculty Recep- tion , I felt very much like I did the time mother used to say to me: ,,Kan du saa gaa ind og gi' Praesten Haanflen? SEPT. 25-There was an election of Student Body officers and Hermes Staff to- day. Guess it doesn't make inuch difference who gets the jobs around here, at least I didn't see any election propaganda anywheres, nor any electioneering at the polls either. SEPT. 30-The Seniors found each other today and organized their class of 35 members. 3 L 1 hate to hear people cry out in mortal agony, but when they do it in order to get into Prof. Nielsen's choir, somehow my reactions change. October OCT. 1-I like traditions. We had one tonight in the shape and substance of a mixer in the gym. People seem to take on 1110113 coloring after they're mixed. OCT. Sl-l hate to blame it on anything, but the exuberant spirits of some of the girls, that made them serenade the boys tonight. It Wasn't exactly melodious, but 1 believe they meant well., OCT. 10-I-lannes took on a philosophical train of mind and almost convinced us tonight that Sadness was the most perfect state of mind. OCT. 1SeNebraska weather is treacherous-we planned a picnic in the woods, but had to transfer the scene of activity to the gym instead, but the 'Viking blood asserted itself audi we roasted our weinies and toasted our cosmos, at least on one side by the blazing fire in the woods despite the told blasts of the northerly winds. OCT. 23-Another Senior tradition-The Carnival-Why do they have cops at such a time and'place? I was arsested, but so was another couple for spooning on the Park Bench. OCT. 28-Red appeared on the scene and Ernie had a hair-cut. OCT. 30-I journey in state with Prof. Nielsen to Omaha to hear one of my fam- ous country-men, Reinald Warrenrath, sing tonight. Yessir, IIGYS a Dane just like me. OCT. Ill-The Faculty believes in strategy and foresight. They planned a Hal- lowe'en Party in the girls' reception room, but it failed to use up all the surplus itching energy of the girls. At 12 o'clock I'm sure- I saw plants, pillows, pictures, and bed clothing issuing forth from the windows-with a few feminine screams iutermingled.

We were fortuiiate in having Mrs. Dale occupying the Reception Room. He1'e's hop- ing it won't be long before we havetrooms like the girls. l had intended to try out for cheer leader tonight, but l'd rather take my chances with the cl1oi1'. NOV. G-Nordisk Lmsekreds met tonight in the Girls' Reception Room. I was rath- er much tempted to join the Lazy Grease which met one door north. NOV. 12-Tosca Seidel wore out at string on his violin when playing tonight. Funny, he doesnt get a. better grade of strings when he plays ut the Brandeis Theater in Oniztha.. rm going to to see Prof. Swihart and see what he says. NOV. lfi-1 found out that 1,111 not the only poor skate that's subject to stage fright. Prof. Overgaard made at rather doubtfuliy graceful but nevertheless un- scrupulousiy hasty exit in the midst of his song, .lyden, han er staerk og sejg . NUVV. loeihe Dean of Women interrupted a perfectly good game of Volley Ball tonight. The girls are pretty good sports when they can play on the same plane as the fellows. ' NOV. Z0-1 bought my Daniun Tag yesterday. Some of the guys waited u11til to- night Just to get all the Senior girls excited about them. NOV. 2:5-I wont down to see South America. on the moon thru Prof. Clarlcs tele- scope tonight. 1 cl believe anything he'd tell me after what he showed us in the chapel this A. M. NOV. 26-'When a guy can't go home for Thanksgiving it certainly does his heart and also his lower regions good, as Lamb would stty, to be invited out for ti gen- uine, none other such Thanksgiving dinner. NOV. 27-No classes!-Played tennis from 9 till 12, and from 2 till 5. ' NOV. 2SWThere's one time when our old gym suits me fine, and that's wl1eI1 Mrs. Jungersen serves lunch out there. NOV. Z9-'l'he Bible Team started a Sunday School in the North School today This team inakes Danafs future look a. great deal brighter. Dccclnbcr DEC. 5-This has been a rather strenuous day. I started to Work on the debate for the Hesperian Program right after dinner and 'vorked until supper time. I mem- orized it after supper, but never again will I punish my mental equipment in that way. I'll take Miss Falk's advice and spread it over four weeks instead. DEC. 12-Eddie's got his puddle jumper pretty well trained now. When a tire happens to come off, it keeps rambling on beside or in front of the main part of the wagon. Tl1at's no dream eitlzer. I illustrated the power of suggestion pretty well tonight. I laughed, two girls wh' were singing, Ride, ride Ranken, saw me and laughedg then the audience saw them and lauglied-and the girls were forced to make 21 premature exit. I don't know what I'd do if l didn't sing in the choir. The church choir entertained us in the gym tonight. They know how to do it and I don't mean suppose. DEC. 13-Only one casualty has been reported due to the slippery condition of the back stairs. Prof. Nielsen has an awful time hopping on one leg from his house to his studio. DEC. 18-After the Pep meeting we had this morning, it's no wonder Grand View's Basketeers keeled over to Dana to the tune of 24 to 35. The girls' teams were turned
