This committee, headed by Norman Bolker, with Fred Strandskov, Lawrence Barret and Her bert ITildebrand. makes a number of valuable sur:Pstions in its paper and offers a plan for addine such tests to the regular health exam inations. The committee's report reveals that the possibility of finding the existence of syphilis and gonorrhea in the student body member ship is about '200 to 1. Thus, the need for fre quent examinations is hardly necessary. A check on students when they entered the uni versity would not add a preat deal of work to the health department's regular routine, yet it would be sufficient and a desirable service. That the service would be especially de sirable to those students who are enrolled in Teachers college is apparent when one notes the state law passed recently which requires health exams of all irraduate teachers. C. W. Taylor, state superintendent of instruction, said that the state will require a clean bill of health written by a licensed physician from each applicant for a teaching position; that any licensed physician is capable of writing one. and that the health exam may or may not include venereal tests, depending only on the discretion of the examining physician. In order that some students will not go entirely thru Teachers college only to find that they are physically unfit to teach. Dr. R. A. Lyman, head of the student health service, has MUSICAL GROUPS PRESENT SPRING MASS CONCERT (Continued from Page 1.)

Such a policy would appear the only logical one in view of the recent pas sage of the state law referred to above. The conclusions which the committee reaches following its detailed report are plausible and deeply significant. The con clusions recommend: That venereal disease exams should be adopted by the University of Nebraska as part of the routine physical exam for all entering students ; that venereal disease exams should be available to all up perclassmen on indication or request, as is done at present ; that all samples and smears be sent to the state health laboratories, as is done at present, where diagnosis will be made without cost to the university; that when a case of venereal disease is discov ered, treatment must be made available to the student either by private physicians or by the student health service ; if treatment is made by the latter, it should be at no addi tional cost to the student above his regular student health fee. The research done by the committee shows a great deal of work and time well spent. Their suggestions not only appear advisable, but nec essary. Their plan which has been worked out has not only received the approval of such medical authorities as Dr. M. F. Arnholt of the Lincoln city health department and the United States surgeon general, but also has been put into effect by a number of leading universi ties and colleges, including Oklahoma A. & 51., Harvard. Pittsburgh. George Washington uni versity, University of New Mexico. Iowa U.. Minnesota, University of Kansas and Texas. with Overture Solonnelle by Tschaikowsky which is a musical representation of Napoleon's de feat at Moscow. This overture of 1812 features in one grand finale all the musical groups supported by Pershling Rifles scattered throughout the auditorium firing blank cartridges to give the battle field sound effects.

To the Editor: No Barb will deny that a decent Barb representation on the organ izations which "rule" this campus is desirable, but we , must ask Pulse writer Tim Parker: 1 What can the Barhs nrenmnlish pvnn If they are organized and 2. WhaV L-iiHin-e ana now can mey organ ize? The abstraction "organize and get out and vote" sounds beauti ful to thp ear. hilt llnur Is if nna- sible and how can it get the Barbs more than the one "charity" In nocency which they have been re ceiving? Lots of Barbs would vote if they thought it would do any good. First we feel that the unaffiliated men around the campus don't have enough get up and go to get out in any numbers and so we Join that shiftless group. Second we feel that even if we did get out and vote in large numbers, politi cal pull would keep all the red In nocents cloaks in Greek hands. Third, where, pray tell, in the Barb ranks are any real leaders eligible, from the activity stand point, to a place on the Innocents? True, two-thirds of the campus in Barbarian and the Honors Day lists feature many a Non-Greek name, but we don't want Book worm Innocents or even Innocent Bookworms. Show us that Barb votes can elect Barb Innocents next Tues day: show us thnt Barb organ ization to get out a vote a pos shible; show us real Barb leaders to cast our ballots for and we brave the heat and the Temple doors and even the Honors Day crowd to vote. Wishbone. BAKBS, HKIiE S HOW . . . To the Editor: Student pulse writer Tim Parker points out that the Barbs should have a better representation on student organizations and contends that all the Barbs lack is organ ization. That Barbs need more reps we Barbs all concede, but to get them we must come out of the rarified air of such beautiful abstractions as "get out and or ganize, vote, and win." We must have something definite. First, we must make sure, If it is true, that with organization we can get an Innocency or two next Tuesday. Can we get a fair rep resentation on the student council, on the Corn Cobs, on the pub board; if we organize? If we can, and if these offices are not just political plumbs to be passed about of, by and for the Greeks, then there is sense and a motive to or ganize and vote. Second, can we' organize ? When a Barb goes to the polls next Tuesday will he not, as always before, be just one of a very few Non-Greeks who votes just be cause he accidentally happened In to the Temple? If the Barb knows that a real drive is on to get Barbarian vote srs out and that there is a chance that enough of them will cast their ballots to win, he will try to vote, but not otherwise. Third, do the Barbs have the leaders and are they known to the Barb Voters? Certain! v in a of some 4,000 BarbB there must be men of ability, especially aince there are Barbs who shine very brightly on Honors Day, In the Phi Beta Kappa roies, on the de bate teams, and occasionally on the Rag. etc. But the plain fact is that when Barbs co to the noils they not only do not know the nominees, bin do not know which are Barbs and which are not. Here. Tim Parker, Is a ( hal lenge. Show us that Barb votes will get Barb representation, show us how we ran organize to get out a Barb vote and tell us who the Bitrb leaders are who will have a chanre in the "primary" next Tuesday and we'll be out there pitching.

Tknt'i Catt tl aiatii lkiii! .MATTHEWS (0 iyi0M ... , s -w. .... I . rW . r Is -'I "i Contemporary Comment Stressing Memory Work There is nothing startling in Nick Comfort's assertion that from SO to 60 percent of the uni versity student sare "intellectually dishonest. What is hard to believe is that anyone with the wisdom of fie dean of the religion school was not aware that cribbing is an ec cepted custom, practiced by the majority of degree seekers witn out any remorse of conscience. Professors are an idealistic lot, but for one to be so far removed from reality is to admit a hopeless naivete. And such an admission from Comfort is indeed startling. This Is no defense for cribbing. Because something is "universal," the facts are not changed, and the face that there Is no defense for such a poor partcelce. There are reasons, tho, and a partial explanation is to be found in the emphasis the world places on degrees, and what getting one entaus. And to get the cherished sheep skin, a student must memorize an endless number of facts, 80 per cent of which are useless, and give them back parrot fashion at ex amination time. There are thosj who defend this inane procedure In the name of education, assi ming that all knowledge is useful. That, of coune, depends on the definition of ki.nwledge, but few can deny the array of superfluous data crammed down the already gorged throats of students, and all in the name of knowledge, or higher education. There are many types of stu dents, who crib, including those who cheat to make A's, thus be coming members of the president's class, and in some cases, Phi Beta Kappas. There are also those rela tively few students who must fore go their ethical standards to pass, thus satisfying the registry office. Thinking is an important part of education, and eitrely too little of it is done by undergraduates be cause there la no demand for it. From experience, and we have had five years of it .there is a beautiful lack of cribbing in those few courses which place emphasis on the student's ability to analyze a situation, utilizing the back ground he has obtained from read ing and the Instructor's lectures. A possible solution, then, would seem to lie In the elimination of the unconsequental. Irrevelant bal lyhoo that is disseminated in the name of education. Oklahoma Dally.

To date, the university's total of major gifts amounts to more than 12 million dollars-a considerable sum, but a sum mainly aldeady in use In buildings, libraries and equipment little more than ade quate for present student need.
