First Floor " 1 '45 Yearbook Carries Theme Of UN Stadium Memorial stadium is the theme of the 1945 Cornhusker, dedicated to all Ncbraskans contributing to the war effort. An outline draw ing of part of the stadium ap pears on the padded blue-grcy cloth cover of the book and one of the four corners with the in scription most fitting for the sec tion following, appears as a back ground for the photographers on the division pages for each of the four major sections of the book. Bright blue and red lettering accents are used on the cover and reappear on the division pages for the class, activities and social sec tion, the new heroes division. The special servicemen's section in cludes the pictures and short write-ups of 120 university gold star men in addition to the listing of another 100 killed since De cember. The art work and copy of the division contrast the change and follow the transition from prewar to wartime school life. Innovation. Another innovation in the '45 book is inclusion of last year's commencement activities. An unusual number of large and informal photographs appear throughout the new Cornhusker and all copy is in informal style with the usual small body type replaced by a modernistic script Individual pictures appear in blocks by classes rather than in groups according to colleges, as they were last year. Each class section is interspersed with in formal shots of outstanding mem bers of the group. Each Sorority. Each sorority has a two-page spread and six pages are devoted to the student peace conference. Another feature of the 320 page book is a short sketch with lllus trations and informal sketches about each college. Myra jColberg is editor of the '45 Cornhusker and Alice Abel and J i y c e Crosbie served as managing editors. Charlotte Hill was business manager with Mari lyn Adler, Lorene Novotny and Joanne Rapp as assistants. Ed Robinson and Bill DeVriendt of the Capitol Engraving Company were in charge of photography for the book. Ag War Council Elects V. Young New President Virginia Young has been elected president of Ag War Council. She was elected at the last meeting of the group. Other officers elected were Maryetta Shoup, vice president; Evelyn Mummer, secretary. Suggestions for fall plans were brought up at the meeting.
