Opportunity for Art . .
On display this month in Morrill Hall is the 57th an
nual Exhibition of Contemporary American Art, sponsored
by the Nebraska Art Association. .Authorities on art have
long recognized this annual show as one of the finest in
the country, and it brings to the campus over 200 varied
stykv. and media.
You can see abstract painting, works by American
masters and European artists in oil, watercolor, crayon and
sculpture in the galleries of Morrill and you can see them
free. In addition, if you might win on original etching,
lithograph or silkscreen by entering the contest sponsored
by the art department.
Gallery talks by members of the art I acuity ana cnucs
from other cities on the exhibit are also featured at Mor
rill Hall this month. Students have an excellent oppor
tunity to see and hear about the exhibition because no ad
mission is charged, while citizens of Lincoln have to pay
to see it.
Wandering about the halls and galleries is interesting,
noticing how present-day artists interpret their world, some
in lines and geometric designs, others in landscapes and
street scenes. It doesn't take a thorough knowledge of the
principles and mechanics of drawing to enjoy a picture or
a statue.
NSA Delegates Give Report
On Organization Expansion
Last December, the Student
Council sent four students to re
present the university at the Chi
cago Student Conference, a meet
ing in which 727 delegates repre
sented 672 colleges and univer
sities and 55 national student or
ganizations for the purpose of or
ganizing a national organization
of students.
A National Continuations Com
mittee was established for the
purpose of preparing a constitu
tion and a general plan of activity
to be presented to a larger assem
blage of people at the University
of Wisconsin this September.
For the purpose of fascilitating
the activities of the activities of
the organization the county was
divided into 30 regions, one of
which includes North Dakota,
South Dakota, and Nebraska.
During this past weekend a re
gional meeting was held at Du
chesne College in Omaha, with
fifteen colleges and universities
participating. The purpose of the
meeting was to arouse greater in
terest in the national organization
and in the constitutional conven
tion this summer.
Regional Officers.
Regional organization was dis
cussed at the Duchesne meeting
and regional officers were elected.
The officers are Eugene Berman,
of the university, regional char
man; Bill Long, Kearney stale
college, vice-president; Don Niel
sen, University of Omaha, treas
urer; Robert Nickerson, Creighton
University, secretary; and Wesley
Sandvig, Augustana college, pub
licity chairman.
Most of the meeting was con
cerned with a discussion of the
organization, its aims, purposes,
methods, and structure. Following
the lengthy discussion of the pro
posed organization it was found
that all delegates present favored
the establishment of such an or
ganization and were willing
xo iaice sucn a recommen
dation back to the campuses each
represented. For this reason the
meeting continued on organiza
tional lines, the high-point being
the assessment of each campus for
an amount of money in accordance
to a formula set up based on a
per-capita and representative bas
is. The money is to be used to
support the NCC, both national
and regional, during the interim
period until the constitutional
conference.
May Meet Planned.
Because of the brief time that

had been allotted for the confer
ence, and because the delegates
wanted to get the opinions of
their campuses concerning the
proposed constitution for the NSA
before the region made recom
mendations for presentation at the
constitution convention, is was de
cided that another regional meet
ing be held on May 10 and 11.
An all out drive to interest oth
er schools in the organization and
to be present at the next regional
meeting and the national consti
tutional convention has been un
dertaken by the executive com
mittee. Only four colleges from
this region were present at Chi
cago. There were thirteen at Du
chesne, and several additional
schools have expressed interest in
the organization and are keeping
in touch with the group.

Dial Twistings . . .
BY LEE HARRIS.
Here it is Thursday already and
the week has slipped right out
from under us, leaving a variety
of thoughts behind it. Some of
those thoughts might need a slight
bolstering, so let me suggest the
Musical Clock as that source of
spirit from which you can start
out the day right. The Musical
Clock is brought to you thru the
facilities of station KFOR at 7:15.
But that's for those early birds
who rise at the crack of 6:30 to
make their old stand-by, the 8
o'clock class. If you are a person
of leisure on this fine March
morning and are lucky enough to
be near a radio as the clock strikes
10, snap your sturdy little dial
twister to KFOR again and listen
to Hollywood's morning favorite,
Tom Breneman. This is a na
tional program sponsored by ABC
and is generally regarded as one
of radio's best in the way of all
around variety. Among the many
feature attractions on Breakfast in
Hollywood, which is broadcast di
rectly from Tom Breneman's own
restaurant, is the award to the
Good Neighbor of the Day. Many
letters are received by Tom tell
ing him of some worthy person
who has done something outstand
ing to help someone. The award
is truly a worth while one, and
those who win this coveted honor
deserve the recognition given
them.
As we travel thru the day from
class to class, many things may
happen to cause that tightened-up
feeling within. If this is the case
with you, snap the dial to KFAB
this evening and listen to a pair
of thrilling mysteries that will
unravel all those tight thoughts
that have wound their way around
you all day long. Mr. Keen, the
first of the two mysteries, takes
to the air at 6:30 over KFAB and
is followed by Suspense, a half
hour later over the same station.
At 8:00, still on KFAB, the Dick
Haymes show will filter thru your
loudspeaker, providing you have
your dial set at 1110. Another
CBS production, this 30 minute
show promises an interesting half
hour of radio listening.
Back-tracking a bit, the Town
Meeting of the Air is scheduled
to take over the ABC network at
7:30 this evening. For all those,
who want to find out not only
what has happened but also why
it has happened, this is their best
bet. Being the best program of
its kind, Town Meeting of the Air
furnishes possibly the best source
of argument on the problems
facing America today.
This evening, you may find out
exactly what has happened in the
way of the latest news by tuning
in either KFOR or KFAB at 11.
Both local stations offer at that
time a five minute review of the
news.
Tony Pastor highlights the
dance band music for tonight as
he carries the burden for KFAB
from 11:30 to midnight. About
now your small dial on the side
of your radio is exhausted and
takes an exit until dawn of the
next day. Until tomorrow, then
sweet listening to all radio listen
ers everywhere.
Well Drillers ...

p. m. on "University Relations to
Nebraska Well Drillers," followed

pectsfor Well Screen and Related
Materials." At 3:30, George Tay
lor, regional engineer of the
ground water division of the U. S,
Geological Survey, will speak on
"Ground Water Studies in con
nection with the Missouri Basin
Proeram."
Dr. A. L. Lugn of the univer
sity geology department will end
the series of talks at 4:15 on "Navy
Maps and Charts."
Members of the well drillers as
sociation will be entertained at a
Dutch lunch at 6:30 tonight by the
Drillers and Manufacturers. Gov'
ernor Val Peterson and Dr. George
Condra, state geologist in conser
vation and survey will address
the group.
Visitors.
Visitors, especially engineering
and ag students, are welcome to
all the meetings, according to E.
C. Reed, secretary of the associa
tion. All talks will be given in
room 110 of Nebraska hall today.
The conference continues tomor

Immediate Suspension.
The Chancellor concluded, "be
cause lives are being endangered
by reckless driving and especially
reckless driving under the in
fluence of alcohol, I am taking
this occasion to restate a univer
sity policy of long standing: stu
dents found guilty of driving
under the influence of alcohol
will be immediately suspended
from the university."
