The AUF drive begins Monday, with its goal set at $2200.
$2200 is a lot of money until the student considers the
roll call of benefiting relief groups which the All University
Foundation finances. The Community Chest activities, on
the campus are included in the AUF work as well as The
World Student Service Fund, which provides organization.
The WSSF sends money overseas to provide for the material
as well as the educational needs of university stuednts.
Community Chest work is well known. It finances 22
local relief agencies including the American Legion Family
Welfare, the Belmont Community Center, Boy Scouts, Camp
fire Girls, Girl Scouts, Catholic Social Service Bureau, Com
munity Emergency Shop, the Council of Social Agencies, the
Jewish Welfare Federation, People's City Mission, Public
Health Nursing Association, Salvation Army, St. Thomas
Orphanage, Social Welfare agency, the Southwest Commu
nity Center, Tabitha Home, Urban League, an dthe city
YMCA and YWCA.
The university YM and YW, financed in part by the
Community Chest Fund, also conduct their own member
ship drives to supplement city funds.
Where Were You Vets?
Since the veterans first made their presence known on
the campus, it has been a well-established fact that they
were an active group, possessing definite reasons for their
existence on a university campus.
Consequently, it is disturbing, to say the least, to find
that so few veterans came to the polls for last Tuesday's
election.
A look into last year's Daily Nebraskan files will help
to recall their stand against so-called "dirty" politics and
the existence of such groups as Mortar Board and Innocents.
Whether their objections to such matters were well-founded
is not the question here. The fact that they did take a stand
and demonstrated a considerable amount of spirit and inter
est in the unievrsity.
Now, when the opportunity presents itself to uphold
the democratic ideals for which they fought, their pulse
seems to have weakened considerably, apparent from the
meager balloting which was tabulated.
It's time something constructive was accomplished on
the part of the veterans, and this is a fine opportunity to
demonstrate their vital interest in the university and the
perpetuation of its high standards.

which students will have to meet
this semester. In the past, the
student was approached four or
five times during the semester to
contribute to this group or that
club, until it was no wonder his
wallet was bare! The AUF does
away with that. The present cam
paign will be the only one until
the spring drive, which, it must be
admitted, is better than four
drives a semester!
The AUF director stated that
$2 per person was the quota set,
but that either more or less of
that amount may be given. Miss
Phillips stressed the fact that
there is no competition between
the houses. Contributions are
wholly voluntary and the only or
ganisations whose donations will
be published will be such perma
nent campus institutions as AWS
and WAA.
Monday night, AUF speakers
will close activities for the first
day of the drive when they tour
the campus visiting every organ
ized house during dinner. One of
the AUF aims is to contact allj
university memoers so tnai no
one group will be forced to carry
the weight of the drive.

BY SAM WARREN.
When Patrice Munsel initiates
the Lincoln Newspapers' concert
series with her recital tonight at
8:15 in the coliseum, she will sing
a program of songs that have been
favorites with lyric and colora
tura sopranos over the years.
To balance the ornates selec
tions which' are the particular
forte of coloratura sopranos, Miss
Munsel has chosen a few simpler
in style such as the Handel num
ber with which she opens her
program. It is interesting that the
only operatic aria which she will
sing is a lyric one rather than a
coloratura aria.
Shortly after her Metropolitan
debut in December of 1943, Life
magazine wrote that not sine
Adelina Patti and more recently
Lily Pons "have voice and youth
been so entrancingly combined."
Miss Munsel, continued Life, "is
no prima donna, nor Cinderella.
She is a normal, healthy girl, nur
tured in a happy American home,
adept at sports, fun-loving and
deeply responsible to the talents
which nature bestowed on her."
Miss Betty Wood will provide
flute obligators for five of Miss
Munsel's numbers. Her accom
panist, Stuart Ross, will offer
three selections following the in
termission. Tickets in each price range
.from $1.20 to $3.60 are still avail
able at Walt s Music btore as are
the special oO-cent student tickets.
The complete program as it will
be heard tonight is:
