A Real Consideration . . .
-In the wake of the war will come the problems of separated
families, families left without means of support, physically and men
tally disabled war veterans.- war widows and neglected children.
The adjustment of these humanitarian problems and the rehabili
tation of these families and individuals will be carried on by the
social agencies of the country, whose job it will be to help "bind up
the nation's wounds" during the postwar period as well as in times
of peace.
Nebraska is one of two mid-western states with a program set
vp and ready to to to train those who wish to enter this important
field. UN's rraduate school of social work was founded eight years
ago and is now one of the 40 accredited schools of social work
training: in the country. The other schools nearest Nebraska offer
ing like training are the Washington University of St. Louis, the
University of Minnesota, University of Denver and the University
ef Chicago.
The majority of the students receiving training in social work
at Nebraska enter the profession within the state, serving both in
public and private agencies, and directly benefiting the state in re
turn for their training at the state university. Even before the war
Nebraska felt the need for more trained social workers, but now
that the war has called many of this profession into Red Cross and
to other communities, the need for more social workers is far greater
and will increase during the postwar years.
The war has also brought about the reduction to a minimum of
the staff of the graduate school. Where formerly five full-time
faculty members were in charge of the program, there are now only
three full-time members. If the school is to work at its maximum
efficiency, the faculty should be increased to its former siae. These
instructors must also receive salaries which are up to standards
of schools elsewhere.
Directly connected with the work following this war is speciali
zation within the field in medical social work, psychiatric social
work, group work and social research, all of which could be offered
by UN's school if the necessary funds were available. Such expan
sion of program would attract more Nebraska students, give them
better training, and give the state needed personnel in social work.
A third vital need of the graduate school of social work is
funds for fellowships with which to aid and attract students of out
standing promise. Such funds cannot be provided by appropriations
of the state legislature, as can the other needs of the school be
provided, but must come from voluntary sources.
If the necessary funds for the developments in personnel, pro
gram and fellowships could be bad, and with the excellent field
work opportunities available in nearby Omaha, in Lincoln and sur
rounding rural communities, UN's graduate school of social work
would become an outstanding one in the middle-west.
More mistakes, only this time it wasn't
us, and that is cause for celebration in any
man's language. Seems we wrote a we
Present" on Joyce Crosbie, only some un
known soul got confused and put "Shirley
Crosbie" under the picture. Must confooz-
ing and amoozmg. Anyway, the column
was about Joyce and the picture was of
Joyce, and from there on, who knows what
happened. The fact that there is a Shirley
Crosby, too, only made it more confusing.
And then, on the sports page was a
story entitled "Sooners Lead in Big Six
Everything Goes." Under that not-exactly-intelligent
headline was a story that could
be nothing but society, all about things that
happened not less than two weeks ago.
Besides which, we are writing this on
Friday afternoon because it is always so
peaceful in the Nebraskan office on Friday
afternoon. But, holy smoke and little red
sardines, something is radically wrong to
day. There are three people, all of whom
have no connection with the paper, all typ
ing madly on something or other (probab
ly the Cornhusker). Helen Goodwin, sox
ed, is having some kind of meeting, and
gathered around her are six eager looking
little sox writers, all shouting at each other
j LETTERIP
The conduct of the student body in the crib is
finitPiv below rar. They are turning into rather
morbid characters, described as ''swing babies" or
"lounge lizzards." Lying around the crib, dousing
lirvstirlr stained "fags" in glasses and dishes in
stead of the proper receptacles is merely one ex
ample of grave social negligence.
The desire to make intricate designs of straws
and nankins is indeed a constructive livelihood for
those who have something important to convey to
their guest or just the beast in man to be doing
something destructive. Few know that the initial
use of a straw is to sip your beverage mrougn.
The waiters often find themselves prostrate upon
the floor, either from a stray foot draped casually
in the aisle or by an abrupt stop, brought upon.
bv a very emphatic "jerk" (if you'll pardon the
phrase) on his coat tail.
During rush periods when the crib is noisy, the
conscientious waiter bends slightly forward to
make sure the order is properly taken. He is either
greeted with a fog of smoke or a rapid jumble of
words to this effect: "Pack o Lucks, sack of plant
ers, green river no ice, not very hungry today."
To quote one waiter, "They are darned (pardon
the spelling) disgusting to wait on."
This situation could be greatly improved by
more co-operation from the student body. We all
know what the help situation is at present and
consequently should not expect pre-war service.

one sheet of mimeograph paper after an

of something that vaguely resembles a red
blouse. Things aren't normal at all. We're
going mad, mad, mad.
