Today. marks the opening of an intensified campaign to enlist the co-operation of the student body, the faculty university employees in beautification of the campus. The need for such co-operation is quite apparent to all; how ever, idle talk will accomplish nothing. The success of this drive depends entirely on the de gree to which we, as participating citizens of the university community, enter into the proposed program. The first concrete long-range plan for landscaping the university was laid out 27 years ago. Many unavoidable interruptions have caused this plan to degenerate. First the depression dealt this school a crippling blow. Funds were not available to plant trees and grass. Closely follow ing this economic slump came the drought and we lost the small toehold we first had. Slowly regaining our feet, we entered the war with its manpower shortages and depleted enrollment in schools of hieher learning. The results of these factors are visible on our campus today and we are faced with the tremendous task of overcoming them, reason, "Why should I help when all the present construc reason, "Why should I help them all the present construc tion being done will keep the campus torn up anyway?" Here is the reason for starting the campaign now: The university has a number of interested parties who are willing to finance a complete relandscaping of the campus. They have no desire, on the other hand, to contribute funds to a student body who has no pride in the appearance of its school. Therefore, if we are to have a campus worthy of our praise and admiration, we must conscientiously strive to co-operate with the Campus Beautification Committee and the Landscaping Department. We are prone to criticize various elements of the uni versity. Campus politics, the standing of the school, and athletics all get "hauled over the coals." Here is one very important improvement for this institution that lies right in the student's grasp. By showing our willingness to co operate, we can make great strides in improving the ap pearance of the school. It is up to us! i B. H. and W. L. UN Senior Wins Prize For Design Sidney Willson Campbell, for mer Marine transport pilot and now a university architectural de partment senior, was among 161 prize winners in the Chicago Tri bune's $26,250 "Better Rooms for Better Living" design competition, according to a Tribune Jury of Awards announcement Monday evening. Residents of 25 states, the Dis trict of Columbia, and one foreign country submitted entries in the contest which was conducted to produce fresh and interesting ideas for room interiors that illus trate attractive and suitable ways to furnish and decorate various rooms of homes. $100 Prize. The Campbell entry was select ed for a $100 prize in the recre ation room for adults or for chil dren class. The design was rendered in wa ter colors and innovated the use of built-in furniture. The arrange ment featured a billiard table, ping-pong table, refreshment bar, and built-in radio, record player and game storage closet. An extended full color series of reproductions and adaptations of winning designs will be featured in the Sunday editions of the Chi- Lcago Tribune. Debaters . . . (Continued from Page 1.) The congress opened with pre liminary party caucuses of the two parties, the Right Center party and the Left Center party. The four Nebraska students reg istered in the latter group. Don Kline was among the nomi nees for speaker of the assembly, and B. J. Holcomb, a nominee for the clerk of the assembly. These positions were taken by Al Good speed of Marquette and Jeanne Lemaal of Ohio Wesleyan. Don Kline was elected chairman of the main legislative committee on labor, and Ted Sorensen was elected chairman of the commit tee on health. B. J. Holcomb was elected secretary of the labor leg islative committee. Ted Sorensen and Marthella Holcomb were elected to a joint conference committee on labor and health, whose purpose was to integrate legislation proposed by the separate legislative commit tees.

The facility and ease that characterized her opening Italian group was not matched again until her lighter group of Eng lish and Irish songs that ranged from plaintive songs of unre quited love to the mirth of fast moving "Yarmouth Fair," one of her best received numbers. Well received, too, was Salome's coaxing aria from Massenet's opera '"Herodiade." Miss Anderson has a pureness of tone quality and an ability to so concentrate and direct her placement that there is no awkardness between her several obvious registers. The dark colorings of her low, open throated tones are matched in intensity by the resounding soprano ring of her higher reaches. Encores included: Dif Fori'lle, Schubert. Comln' Thru the Rye.

Although the speaker of the assembly was elected from the Right Center party, the assembly adopted the legislation proposed by the Left Center party. Dr. Laase was elected as one of the national vice presidents of Delta Sigma Rho. Moot Court . . . (Continued from Page I.) ing teams argue. When given a case, one that a lawyer is likely to encounter in actual practice, the lawyer team must do ex tensive research and file a brief with the moot court. Later, law yers for both sides appear in open court and argue the case orally. Decisions are based on the merit of both the written briefs and oral presentation. One adverse deci sion throws a team out of the Al ien competition. Today's Cases. The first case for today will begin at 1:30 and' features Scott and Lowe vs. Olson and Dickson. Judges for this case will be Wil liam L. Walker. H. E. Kokjer. and O. B. Clark. Other cases for today are: 3:30, Binning and Ha gen vs. Tewell and Evans with Judges Charles H.

YMCA Stag Party Features African Film The university YMCA will hold its second semester stag party to night at 7:30 p.m. in the Temple building for all YM members and university men. Leading feature of the program will be a film on Africa entitled "Africa The Paradox" to be pre sented by Mervyn Cadwallader. The pictures were taken by Prof. Edward M. Cadwallader during the 15 years spent in educational work in the heart of central and southern Africa. Mervyn Cadwal lader was born in central Africa and traveled extensively with his father throughout much of the southern half of the African con tinent. Background Music. Background music for the film was recorded in Africa and lends a touch of authentic savage at mosphere to the showing and as sists in launching the imaginative voyage to the "dark" continent. A running commentary offers facts and figures concerning the film. Other special attractions of the party will be singing, recreation, and summer work opportunities presented by Owen Scott, district representative of the local group.
