Opportunity ...
The Daily Nebraskan today begins a system which is
entirely different than its past policy of luring reporters
by merely promising them experience and the possibility of
a staff position of they worked hard. Now we will entice
them with the clink of coins, since it seems that promises
are not enough.
Reporters who write more than 100 inches of printed
copy a month will receive 5c an inch, assuring them at
least $5 per month. All any student who wants to write
has to do it appear in the Daily office any afternoon, ask
the managing editor of assignments or dip up stories on
his own, turn it in and wait for the end of the month.
It is surprisingly easy to write 100 inches of accept
able copy a month, even if it sounds like an enormous
amount. An average of 5 inches written each day will
earn reporters more tnan the minimum.
The Daily Nebraskan staff, however, retains the right
to edit all stories and ask for rewrites if they are not satis
factory. We make no promise that -all material turned in
will be printed because we want good feature and news
stones, but a little time and effort can make a story print
able.
Paying reporters is an effort to interest students in
their paper and to get a staff of reporters who can and
will cover the campus adequately. We do not want to
discourage students who do not have the time to write 100
inches a month, because interest and ability are the main
requisites for reporters and will be considered in choos
ing the staff each semester.
The door to the office is always open and there is
lots of room at the top.

Marian Anderson comes to the

last decade "will draw a record
crowd tonight.
For Miss Anderson's voice, in
the words of a Time magazine
editor, is "more than a magnifi
cent personal talent" It is "the
religious voice of a whole reli
gious people." The religious and
esthetic achievements of Negro
Americans has found profound
expression in Marian Anderson,
he says. "She has taken the soul
of the Negro people as far as art
will take it."
She does not sing many spir
ituals, which have been called
America's "only truly religious
art," but only those best suited
to her voice or which move her
deeply. She is a dedicated char
acter, devoutly simple, calm, and
religious. Among her four pro
grammed spirituals are "Soon I
Will Be Done" and Hall Johnson's
arrangement of "My Good Lord
Done Been Here."
Born in Philadelphia, she was
singing in her Baptist church's
adult choir at the age of 13. At
15, she took her first formal mu
sic lesson, and at 16 gave her
first important recital. Soon, a
group interested in her gave a
concert at her church, and col
lected some $500 to pay for her
voice training under the late Giu
seppe Boghetti.

appearance with the New York
symphony orchestra in 1924. Miss
Anderson went to Germany in
1930 to perfect her Lieder singing

lieder offering tonight.)

they are trudging toward an Eng

The hall was named after

was wounded in the Civil War
and lost an eye. A man known
for his rich personality, great
spirit and non-partisan outlook
on politics, A man who pro
grossed from the presidency of
Denison University in Granville,
Ohio to become one of the out
standing Chancellors of the Uni
versity of Nebraska.
In his eight years of service ;
the school from 1900 to 1908 the
school grew rapidly and saw the
establishment of the Medical and
Teachers' Colleges, the construe
tion of the physics building, ad
ministration building and Temple
theater.
Largely through the work of
Benjamin Andrews, the school
developed a definite policy in
strong administration and some of
the best professors of the coun
try were brought to the campus.
Andrews attended ten schools
during his lifetime in one capacity
or another. These schools in
eluded some of the best schools
of the east, notably Brown Uni
versity, where he first did gradu
ate work and later returned to be
first professor of homiletics, then
professor of History and Political
Economy. In 1889 he was made
president of Brown. Before this

Endorsement.
A faculty committe has been
formed to formulate plans, to ad
vise the landscape architect who
was hired by the university last
fall, and to report progress to the
Chancellor, who has given the
beautification program his full en
dorsement. Men from the archi
tecture, horticulture and main
tenance department form the
committee.
The need for student coopera
tion, particularly in respecting the
placards which will appear over
the campus Wednesday morning,
cannot be over-emphasized. Dur
ing the war years, nursery stocks
have been so depleted that it will
not be possible, let alone profit
able, to replace shrubs and trees
destroyed by student carelessness.

In the numerous experiences
which helped to develop his tre
mendous personality he was at
one time pastor of a church in
Beverly, Mass., after graduating
from the Newton Theological In
stitution in Massachusetts.
1908 saw the resignation of
Chancellor Andrews because of
ill health and upon his death in
1917 his body was returned to
Denison University where he first
served as president in 1879.
Because of his numerous con
tributions to the Uni.'ersity of
Nebraska and the people as a
whole, a lasting monument was
erected to him in the form of the
present Andrews Hall.

Newly-reorganized this fall after

campus beautification for its first

V Back, to campus for the final eight week
stretch we find Dale Raitt Harvey's Best
Dressed Man of the Week. Dale proudly
wears a two-button sport coat of brown
and tan mottled tweed. Wisely combined
with solid brown slacks you 11 find this
beautiful sport coat provides a sporty pro
file for spring affairs. Being a sophomore in
Civil Engineering doesn't leave much free
time for Dale. For relaxation he dances to
his favorite Glenn Miller records, bowls, or
plays golf. This likeable fellow from Ains
worth was on campus a semester in '42
before entering the Field Artillery. After 34
months in the F. A., 6 of them in the E. T. O.,
he returned to enter school the day after
his discharge. Phi Gam brothers tell us
Dale is an ardent bridge fan ...
