The University of Nebraska now is fortunate enough to have and I sincerely hope to hold a seat in ISS, the International Student Service organization. There were many dubious mo ments on the campus last year about Nebraska and ISS. Colum nists on The Daily Nebraskan raised their editorial eyebrows over the propaganda letters sent out of ISS headquarters which invited Nebraska to toss her hat into the ISS ring. WhaLJthe devil is this ISS business anyway? everyone asked. What's it for? Who belongs to it? Why should we join? Will it hurt? Will it cure Aunt Jamina's nagging backache (or will it give us one?). Plowing through the piles of ISS info, it came to light that the primary step was to send a delegate to the ISS conference in Denmark, after which said dele gate would embark on a study tour of Holland, Italy, Czecho slovakia or Poland. The Poland tour fell through for reasons "undisclosed" by the state de partment. That was last spring. Weeks zipped merrily by while the Student Council pondered. Should we, should we not send a delegate. Should we, should we not. Eventually, a committee whipped into action. And finally, on May 15 just five weeks be fore the ship was due to sail the decision came. We should! Now, for the sake of the san ity of next year s delegate, a few suggestions, all under the heading: ELECT YOUR DELE GATE EARLY. Kindly warn him (or her) not later than New Year's day of his coming sum mer adventure. Reasons are at least three: Reason No. 1 Anyone who has dipped his fingers into state or ganizational work knows how much book work and letter writ ing is involved in getting to gether a state convention, let alone a national blowout. And an international meeting is just that much harder. Home offices are in New York, but head offices are in far off Geneva, Switzerland, and that means IT TAKES TIME to whip things into shape. Furthermore, as interest in In tern.ntional student exchange b r 'is, and more and more u isties become interested, places will be harder and harder to obtain. In other words, despite the glad-handing, summer study tcurs, such asthose sponsored by the ISS participation may be held down to but a few universities. The student delegation touring Italy this summer was limited to ten, and still there were com plaints that ten is too unwieldy a group for traveling. Ideal travel ing groups are small, so if you want Nebraska to be assured of a seat in the ISS tours, ELECT YOUR DELEGATE EARLY. Reason No. 2 Your delegate will be entering foreign country. Give him a month or three to bone up on foreign languages, and said delegate will love you for life. I would have given my right arm for Prof. Alexis the day I started to look up a friend in Paris. Ach himmel, and I spent my two foreign language years at Nebraska on Spanish! Well, two hours and sixteen Metro miles later I spotted an Englishman and finally found my party. But I swear, I'll never be the same. Or the time a reception was held for us in Naples. Where should my place, be but at the right side of Giuseppe Buonocore, mayor of the City of Naples, who spoke not a word of English. I gulped, shook hands with the mayor, mustered every bit of Spanish I could muster, and pro ceeded to answer all of His Hon or's million-and-one questions about America. After the first three hours it wasn't bad at all, but I reckon I sweated off three pounds that night. (On second thought, three pounds off the spa ghetti diet we were getting prob ably did me more good than harm!) Rp.ncnn Nn 3 ELECT YOUR DELEGATE EARLY and try to pay at least hair cl nis expenses. Granted, that's a pretty stiff un-rWfakino- fnr a stale university. but waiting until the last minute as we did at Nebraska last year meant that the Student Council had less than $50 in its pockets to contribute to a project costing $500. Treasury funds are always depleted toward the end of the ephnni vpar Mnkc vour decision one way or the other early and set the money aside if it's at all possible. It goes without saying that a financially backed delegate sent by the university will be re rinvoi no n trnlv stable reDresen- tative, and not as one who "paid his way" into the group with papa's cash. Righ here and now might be a good place to break the news I managed to worm out of the powers-that-be at ISS headquart ers in Geneva just before our Alps conference packed up for hnm in Aiimist. And that is: the University of Nebraska defin itely WILL be invited to sena a delegate abroad again next year. a t.i l- i j i i i a n t can't yell it loud enough that it's really a worthwhile undertaking for the university. Not only does it helD sDread he fame of Ne braska's fair name. ' but it also gives us representation in an In ternational Student organization, the advantage of which I will WE GIVE S&H GREEN STAMPS LmcoWi lj The formal is just ahead!

Hi, w St WIA J J, GOOD JUDGES of meat on the hoof are Ned Raun and Richard Wahltsrom. They place one-two in individual competition at the American Royal Livestock show held in Kansas City last week end. UN Ag Team First to Win Both Top Places at American Royal Ned Raun and Richard Wahl strom, Ag college seniors, won na tional recognition for themselves last weekend when they placed first and second respectively in all ' classes cl competition in the judging contest at the American Royal Livestock show in Kansas City. delve into in this series of articles. Next year's conference, by the way, will be held either in India or in Hungary, depending on the political temperature of the world "situation." Geneva headquarters should learn definitely wuhm the next month whether or not India can come through. If not, the conference will definitely be in Budapest, sinve Hungary has al ready issued the invitation. Next chapter: "ISS Study Tours for 1948." This is the first time in the his tory of the show that any team ever won both top places. The competition included 17 teams of 5 men each, representing most of the prominent agricultural col legos in the nation. ( Raun won with a total of 921 points out of a perfect 1,000 and Wahlstrom earned 910.:Last spring in the Block and Bridle judging contest held on Ag campus, tables were turned and Wahlstrom was high man followed by Raun. A total of 12 classes of livestock were judged during the competi tion and oral reasons were given on eight classes. Placing of each class counts a possible 50 points and each set of reasons counts 50 point. The livestock team, coached by Prof. M. A. Alexander, was fifth See AG TEAM, page 4. I 'AW?
