The ii)iif(i,H'liiiiu' Stiiilt'iit I'liion "lumse
viirniin"'" hemMs the completion of nn oi jrht
ye;ir old (Irciiin. With it comes controversy
ninonir vnrious groups ns nnt ioipat od by those
iiistruincnt.'il in llio Union's construction.
Much of the conflict is .lue to the fact Hint
students, faculty, alumni and townspeople
have the wronu: conceptions of the student
center and its purpose.
Purpose of the 1'nion. ns staled in its con
stitution, is for the students and llie university
"family" to have a irlorified jrntlierintr place,
social hauuoul, and activities center. "Family"
embraces the jiluinni. faculty and administra
tive staff, .lust how the different branches of
the university's personnel can harmoniously
be fitted together remains a task for the Union
staff. The constitution specifies that a cen
rral faculty dininp room be set up so that the
members can' become acquainted with fellow
instructors, even tho they aren't in the same
department. If the Union achieves in secur
ing an atmosphere of congeniality ninonir the
various departmental instructors and affords
nn opportunity for an Knulish teacher, for ex
ample. 1o cnli' elbows with an enqfmoerincr in
structor, a badly needed enmernderie will be
attained.
As for the students, it cannot be empha
sized too strongly that the Student Union is
their building, they paid for it. Tt is their
activity home. Many students believe that
other branches of the university "family" will
dominate the activities. This is not true. Stu
dent organizations will have virtual run of the
house in the Union. Every orfranizntiontlint
asked for the allocation of space in the Union
received careful consideration and secured
desk space or a room suitable to the needs of
the organization, ("bice the Union is open, this
fact will be proved.
Students also have been of the belief that
they must stage all their affairs in the Union.
This is another misconception, since the Union
could scarcely accommodate nil the dinners,
dances, smokers, teas and other functions that
make up the social side of college life. The
1'nion, however makes no bones about it : the
patronage of students has been and will he
solicited, in order to enlighten student organi
zations that the Union is at their disposal. Of
course, if students don't want to make use of
what they forked over $:1 a semester for, that's
their business.
With n super "coking spot" grill room,
villi a fine cafeteria and with private confer
ence rooms, the Union will cater primarily to
students. A policy of " first come, first served"
will be carried out among student groups seek
ing use of Union facilities, and this is the only
fair way. A popular feature of Union dances
is intended solely for the pleasure of students.
Such dances, once a week with a sprinkling of
"big name" orchestras should prove popular
entertainment for "hop" addicts. Motion pic
tures, contests, lectures ami other such diver
sions should accommodate the non-dancers.
The Union has also been the center of con
siderable comment bv Lincoln merchants who
feel that Hie structure's eating departments
will cut deeply into their major source of
revenue students. Townspeople have over
looked the fact that the Union represents the
students who have fought for and won such n
building. Competition is not the sole objective
of the Union, nltho it aspires to serve its mas
terstudents. The Union's dining facilities
dovetail into the general scheme of the student
center's layout, which can best he expressed
by paraphrasing". . . of the students, by the
students and for the students. . ."
Committee Requests Board to
Make Investigation of Reg
istrants. (Continued from Page 1.)
the college aptitude and psycho
logical tests already given.
A freshman advisory committee
consisting of one member from
each of the colleges which register
freshmen, with the Registrar and
Dean of Student Affairs as ex-of-ficio
members, would serve as the
directing committee to use the
compiled information regarding
freshman. This group, appointed
by the Chancellor, would supervise
a qualified faculty member who
devoted his time to counseling of
freshmen and sophomores. Fresh
men vvho had not made their choice
of colleges would come under the
advice of the committee.
A full time research officer
would be appointed who had a
knowledge of personal problems of
both higher and lower educational
levels. His duties would consist of
conducting researches, collecting
information regarding prospective
lreshmen and the effect of en
trance requirements, and studying
plans for freshmen in other uni
versities. In addition he would
study circumstances leading to the
transfer of students from one uni
versity to another. The results of
his research would be made avail
able to public school teachers, uni
versity faculty members and the
advisory committee.
High school graduates ,who ap
peared to lack preparation or abil
ity for university work would be
advised In advance of the difficul
ties they would encounter, the
committee report stated, and a
means by which they might over
come thifl difficulty also would be
suggested. Special ancouragement
would be given those who pos
sessed qualifications.
A remedial department to pre
pare unqualified students further
was proposed in the plan. Those
students would be on probation
and would receive no credit. If
they could not meet the entrance i
requirements, on the advice of the
instructor and dean of the college,
they would be permitted to en
roll in those courses for which they
seem ed to be fitted. Enrollment
under these conditions would not
permit the student to be a candi
date for a degree, nor could he
engage In student activities or join
a fraternity.
Further requirements for qual
ified students would promote
scholarship in their freshman and
sophomore years. An average of
70 in 80 percent of the hours car
ried each semester would bo re
quired before any of the work
would count for graduation. A fur
ther requirement of 70 in a pre
requisite course before registra
tion in a following course also
was recommended.
The quality of freshman instruc
tion will be bettered according to
the new plan by reJucing the en
rollment in each class, "providing
this can be accomplished without
lowering the quality of instructors
employed." The committee did not
believe any expenditures should
be made which would divert the
amount of funds used In teaching
the freshmen.
A second section of the plan
A banquet honoring graduating
seniors will be given by the Roger
Williams club of the First Baptist
church, this evening at 6:15. The
speaker, Dean Vaughan Dubncy of
Andover-Newton fmlnury, New
ton Center, Mass., will address the
Baptist alumni banquet and the
graduating seniors. He will be in
troduced by Richard Smith, alum
nus of the seminary and of the
university.
The president of tho alumni,
Mrs. June Flrod Burke, will act
us master of ceremonies. The
song lender will be Dr. R. E.
Studevant, and Donald Megnhan
will sing two solos. Miss draco
Spnoht, Haptlst student secretary,
will introduce the seniors to the
secretary of the alumni associa
tion, Joe Dennison, who will pre
sent the seniors with recognition
scrolls.
Everyone is Invited to attend
the banquet, even though it Is
given In honor of the seniors. It
is to be held at the First. Baptist

Soon his subjects began to com

a bachelor. They feared that if
he died without an heir, there
would be civil strife over the
successor to the throne. The Al-

Sleep Hates as Moxt
Popular Snap Course
In College Curricula
WICHITA. Kas. One
course in the everyday curricula
of college students that is not neg
lected is sleep and the average
collegian sleeps 68 hours every
week.
At least those are the facts de
termined by the University of
Wichita education class of Dean
L. Hekhuis.
"The tabulation showed," the
survey report said, "that the per
sons working the most hours
study the most. One student who
works 50 hours in a local dry goods
store spends 26 hours In studying.
On the other hand a girl sleeping
60 hours, does no outside work
and studies but 10 hours."
Another conclusion from the
compilation was that the student
who sleeps the least spends the
most time studying.
"Yep, we ought to have more
tests if we had mor: of them the
monotony of the instructor's lec
tures would be broken up because
with the tests to gice you your
grade, you don't have to pay such
close attention in class!" Wayne

Aiks Brokers' Help.
Two years ago In a desperate
effort to placate the people's de
mand for a queen, Zog offered a
handsome fee to any niarrlHge
broker who could find him a
comely bride with an Income of a
million a year. An enterprising
Portugese broker fished up a 19
year old uemployed Hungarian
girl who boasted some kinship to
royahty and elbowed her into a
Tirana bound plane. But King Zog
wasn t Interested.
In the ensuing two years Zog's
name was linked with several Al
banian girls, an Egyptian princess.
a Chicago heiress and a Russian
dancer, Tanla Vlsirous of the
"Follies Bergeres." Still there
were no weddmg bells.
Day before yesterday, however,
wires out of Budapest began to
hum with the last chapter in the
story of Zog's quest for a queen.
He was marrying Countess Ger
aldine Apponyi of Hungary whom
he had met in February, 1938.
Evidently the king had given up
his search for a girl with an in
come of a million dollars a year.
When he met Geraldine, she was
selling postcards to tourists in the
Budapest National museum at
a salary of $45 a month. Zog earns
$90,000 a year as ruler of the
Albanians.
