Class of '51 Precedent dictates this message of welcome. Person ally we've already hand-clasped our greeting to many old friends and while this is somewhat stiff and formal we do welcome the many thousands of freshman on this the "class of '51" day. As in the past this first edition is "chucked" full of rountine material and announcements and official welcomes to the slightly amazed newcomers. Consequently we will leave same to the more skillful handling of the experienced. Our welcome is shorter but nonetheless sincere. Today is the beginning of a new life, new friendships, and the time for decision. From now on you're on your own. Profit while you can. Good luck to the old and the new! A Change For You . . . There's been a lot of changes made ! The campus is polka-dotted with temporary classrooms, wider side-walks, faculty parking signs and upwards to 15,000 confused and weary individuals. Last year there were only 12,000 of us confused consequently we welcome the additional thousands into the fold. . There's one change we're sure of this publication. In the past you've been told it is your medium of expression, you subsidize it, you make the news and it's for you. Hence forth the above will be our aim, but in practice as well as in words. Our goal is a long way off and we're working to ac complish it as soon as possible. The policy of the editor is one of independence but not neutrality. Without convic tions the paper is of little value. This publication has no axe to grind and will employ a horizontal coverage of events which concern students both on and adjacent to the campus. As always we need reporters but only reporters who want to work because we have a lot to do. Our goal is a newspaper that satisfies you ITS reader, so here goes! Union Sels Schedule of FallFnnelions University students can look forward to an interesting year of Union activities, according to Dr. Dwane Lake, new Student Union director. The regular functions will be generally the same with a few minor changes. As yet the date for the Fresh man Reception has not been set due to Chancellor Gustavson's ab sence from Lincoln. A freshman open house will be arranged in a lew days if he does not return.

The "Unionizers" will feature ad ditional entertainment such as movies, with music being played in the lounge. Also beginning this Sunday will be the regular Sunday series of Variety Shows and Coffee Hours. The movie this Sunday will be "Molly and Me" and will be shown at 7:30. Refreshments for the Coffee Hour will be served from 5 to 6 p. m. There will be no charge for either of these func tions. Several redecoration plans are being enacted throughout the Union.

Carl Williams Borgmann. for merly of the University of Col orado, has been appointed to fill the new post of Dean of Faculty and will serve as assistant to the chancellor.

It's hard to believe, but the six foot 4 inch ex-Yale footballer, Sonny Tufts, now co-6tarring in Paramount's aviation epic, "Blaze of Noon," once sang and danced in the chorus of a New York mu sical comedy. "MRS. MURGATROYD'S" . ORIGIN Billy De Wolfe, stellar comedian in Paramount's 36-star "Variety Girl," borrowed "Mrs. Murga troyd" as the name of his famed fictional comedy character when he read it in an English paper some years ago. to take care of most of the busi ness coming into the chancellor's office. The new dean will carry out the policies of the university, but should any need for new pol icies on various campus issues arise, the chancellor himself will attend to them. Thus, much of the routine will be lifted from Dr. Gustavson's shoulders with out changing the setup of univer sity control. An affable, youngish-looking man, Dean Borgmann was born 42 years ago in Mt. Washington, Mo., near Kansas City. His fam ily moved to Colorado in 1910. When living in Evergreen, Borg mann htd to go 30 miles to West Denver High every day. Enter ing the University of Colorado at Boulder, he received his bachelor's degree in chemical engineering in 1927. After leaving school, he worked four years as chemical researcher for the Bell Telephone Labora tories. In 1931 the dean went to Eng land to take graduate work at Cambridge University, where he was a member of Sidney-Sussex college, an organization much like the American fraternity. From there, he went to Nor wa yand Sweden to spend a year studying corrosion and the physics of metals. On receiving his Ph. D. in 1934, Borgmann returned to this coun try to take the position of assistant professor of chemical engineering at the University of North Caro lina. Dean Borgmann then worked two years as a corrosion research er for the National Tube Com pany, a subsidiary of the United States Steel Corporation. In 1938 he returned to Boulder to become professor and head of the depart ment of chemical engineering. Ap pointed director of the Engineer ing Experiment Station in 1943, he became co-ordinator of univer sity research in 1946. Then came his decision to come to Nebraska. Borgmann gave two paramount reasons for coming to Lincoln: (1) He welcomed the opportun ity to work again with Chancellor Gustavson, with whom he had been associated at Boulder; (2) the opportunities here seemed broader. The Borgmanns have four daughters, Dorothea, Elizabeth, Christine, and Martha.
