Oh, party, party, party, and oh,
what a week-end! The Tau's par
tied at the "Pike" on Friday night
since they only had to pay the tax
on tickets to get in. Joe Philbrick
and Jack Wagner apparently
thought there would be a table
shortage at the place and jour
neyed out that way at an early
hour to hold one down. Their
dates, Jan Loudon and Rosie
Kimball, arrived much later in
the evening to join these fore
sighted boys.
Jacupke Capers.
One of the smoothest deals yet
planned by Jerry Jacupke and his
gang was executed that same
right. The gang kidnapped
"Skeeter" House from her home
and held her captive until Jerry
wis- ready to take her to the
Pike." The gal wasn't even al
lowed to call Randy Ewing to tell
him that she wouldn't be able to
keep her date with him.

was strangely quiet. "Skid Row"
is skidding back to normal.
Janitors at Ideal Hall threw
out the funnels left by Friday
night crowds.
Just another triangle on the
campus scene involves Ellie
Swanson. She is having a mighty
rough time keeping both Wayne
Kingery and Walt Samuelson
happy and content.
The S A E's partied in a French
way with their Pig Alley party on
Saturday night at the house. Also
in the house party vein were the
Kappa Sigs and their annual barn
dance. Everyone seemed to have a
big time sliding down the fire
pole in back of the .house. Oh,
we love this form of entertain
ment! Yea, we do!

In an interview with Dean Full

Administration, the university's
representative to the association,
it was learned that he "would like
to see the whole thing worked
out to see that there is no dis
crimination against any student,"
but he also made it clear that he
is merely the representative of the
Athletic Board and would repre
sent that group in all matters. The
Boards composed of four faculty
members, two alumni, and three
ex-officio members from the ad
ministration, will hold its next
meeting on Dec. 9. between the
student meeting and the meeting
of the faculty representatives of
the association.
Jacupke Interviewed
Mozer stated that the council,
when it passes its new resolution,
will present it to the Athletic
Board and seek this groups sup

varsity guard, also stated in an
interview that there is a great
deal of sentiment on the football
team against the current discrim
inatory practices. He joined Jack
Hill and Stanley Johnson, who
promise discussion of the problem
by the Innocents by pledging that
the matter would be discussed at
the meeting of the N club that is
to be held next week. A similar
pledge has been made by mem
bers of the Corn Cobs, the men's

If the University of Nebraska
is to reap full advantages of
"membership" in International
Student Service, it must become
intimately familiar with the or
ganization, its principles, its
members, and its program, else
the purpose of sending delegates
to annual conferences only gath
ers dust on the shelf of good in
tentions. So here is lesson No. 1 on what
ISS is made of and why. Sounds
complicated at first, I know it

ference on the Rutgers campus
in Passaic, New Jersey last June,
plus seven days of shipboard con
ferences and committee meetings

delegates in tbe finer intricacies
of ISS policies, but it's all really
not as deep and far away as it
seems at first glance.
First Stop
The first step is to study what
we like to call the "Internationa!
Alphabet." Student organizations
provided the government with a
little competition when it comes

To start off in familiar ground,
let's begin with WSR, World
Student Relief, which was rec
ognized in 1945 by UNRRA as
a "world agency specializing in
the rehabilitation of students."
WSR is composed of three con
stituent organizations, ISS, Pax
Romana and WSCF. Pax Romana
is the Catholic student organiza
tion and WSCF is World's Stu
dent Christian Federation. WSR
is, broadly speaking, an attempt
to establish between people with
different backgrounds and con
victions a basis of human under
standing in the concrete tasks of
university and student rehabili
tation. Cooperating committees of WSR
include WSSF, World Student
Service Fund which is its fund
raising organization; ESRF, the
European Student Relief Fund;
the YM and YWCA; the Commis
sion mixes of the Red Cross; and
UNESCO among others.
IUS
Then there is IUS, the Inter
national Union of Students whose
headquarters are here in Prague
and with which NSO, the Nation
al Student Organizatfbn in the
U. S. is considering affiliation.
NSO had its annual conference
A Thought
By Beverly Sievers
It has been here and gone. Were
you affected or has this experience
just gone past and left you still
sitting in the same old rut?
Perhaps you don't even know
what "it" is.
I am referring to the opportuni
ties which were presented to the
Nebraska University students in
this last several Jays. The oppor
tunities presented by Religion In
Life Week.
We had on campus some of the
most stimulating speakers in our
country today. They presented us
with thoughts on inter-faith and
inter-cultural relationships, suc
cessful homes, and the place of
religion in world problems.
Students were given a chance to
voice their opinions and to hear
the opinions of men and women
who have studied these problems
and are well versed in their fields.
We have talked much about in
tegrating religion into our cam
pus life: making it a definite part
of this life rather than a separate
and unrelented activity in our
curriculum.
We dash madly from class to
class, class to lunch, class to meet
ing and never stop to think of
utfiv or where we are dashing.
We need a sense of direction and
the one way we can find it is to
become aware of the infinite love
which can be ours if we will
recognize our place in God's uni
verse and strive to fill that place.

in Madison, Wis., last August, as
you all are aware, and voted con
ditional affiliation with IUS.
Criticism of IUS is that it has
"let itself become , involved in
politics." ISS grants that in the
world today it is difficult to carry
out a program of ludent relief
without getting into world poli
tics, but nevertheless ISS stands
firmly for "a university commu
nity which implies that no on
should be held at a disadvantage
in the university' on account of
factors of race, nationality,
wealth, sex, religious or POLIT
ICAL CONVICTIONS . . ."
Another point where ISS and
IUS differ is that IUS is an or
ganization for students only,
whereas ISS welcomes the fac
ulty world as well as the student
world into its ranks. ISS believes
that it should do all possible "to
trengthen community life among
students, BETWEEN TEACHERS
AND STUDENTS, and between
students and the whole of 4he
society of which they form a
part . . ."
First Relief
By way of history, relief for
students was first organized in
China back in 1937. The Nation
al Student Relief Committee for
China was set up at that time
to aid students making the long
inland trek from the coastal cities.
In 1939. the European Student
Relief Committee was set up to
aid distressed European students.
Then in 1943, these two commit
tees were subsequently merged
into World Student Relief, which
has distributed aid to the various
countries solely on the basis of
need. (Need versus Merit will be
discussed later).
As noted before, WSR is jointly
sponsored by ISS, WSCF and
Pax Romana. Each organization
has five representatives on the
executive committee which deter
mines the policies of relief work.
WSR has a charter which allows
it three more years of existence.
Now about ISS itself. A secre
tariat does the day-to-day work
of the organization. Head of the
U. S. co-operating committee is
Wally Doerr, 329 George Street,
New Haven, Conn. Wally is re
sponsible to a standing self-perpetuating
committee of seven
members which in turn is under
the executive committee of the
ISS Assembly. This assembly is
composed of 20 to 30 co-members
who act as a policy-making body
authorized by the annual confer
ence to carry out the decisions.
The ISS delegation is sponsored
by the National Continuations
Committee and WSSF.
Committees
Factually, it is incorrect to
speak of ' belonging to ISS" be
cause ISS actually is a non-membership
organization. The various
national committees are recog
nized by the international organ
ization as their representatives in
the various countries. These na
tional committees don't pay dues.
They act both as a "forum" for
discussion by students of all coun
tries of their various problems
and for the expression of their
divergent view.
ISS is also a service organiza
tion in that it hopes to bring
about the exchange of students
as much as possible so that they
become aware of their belonging
to an international student or uni
versity community. ISS attempts
to be as much as possible a non
political organization. It stands
for the free expression of the
ideas of students regardless of
their personal convictions for it
believes that free discussion is the
firt step towards understanding.
Got the picture now? Yeah, I
know clear a mud. Next chapter
will delve into names and col
leges, which may help!
