Back Beriiie .
Following the Oregon State game Saturday, the furor which
has been simmering all season about Coach Bernie Masterson's job
of guiding the Cornhuskers finally boiled over. For that reason, it
is time to make a few definite
on Masterson's future as head football coach at the university.
The Lincoln newspapers, the coaches office and The Daily
Nebraskan have been swamped with telephone calls asking if it was
true that Bernie had resigned. With the vultures eagerly awaiting
the kill, we asked one of Coach
plans and received the emphatic
tions of resigning and that he had

Monday morning quarterbacks, omnipotent and omniscient, have
forgotten that it takes time to integrate players into a new system.
A look at the records shows that it took the great Dana Bible two
seasons before he started rolling. There is no reason to believe that
this lack of time is the same basic problem in the Masterson con
troversyy. The members of this year's team who can really get down to
facts as far as Masterson's ability as a coach is concerned back
Bernie to the limit. They have admitted that Nebraska's poor show
ing is partially their fault. No coach can make a man move a little
faster on one play of the game when that man has played stellar
ball previous to his slip. No coach can bring a team's spirits
up when alums and outstate newspapers have the team defeated be
fore it walks on the field.
Masterson is a good coach. He has the support of the team.
Given time, he will justify that support. All he needs is freedom
from the same alumni and newspaper interference triat has been the
killing factor in previous football coaches at the University of Ne
braska. J. H.

Convo Speaker
Urges Creation
Of New Bonds
"The dangers of racial dis
crimination can be erased only
by the creation of new relation
ships," emphasized Carey Mc
Williams, noted authority on mi
nority groups, at a university con
vocation Wednesday morning. Mc
Williams explained the growth of
prejudices and racial "stereo
types" to a Union ballroom audi
ence. McWilliams, twice winner of
Guggenheim fellowships, called
for "functional equality, includ
ing equal educational and eco
nomic opportunities, conditions
of housing, recreation, culture,
hospitalization, health agencies,
and enforcement of the law. He
warned, "A crisis is brewing, and
we will face serious consequences
in the next decade unless . racism
is eliminated."
Limitations
"Our relationships are now lim
ited usually to seller-buyer,
master-servant, and landlord--tenant,"
said the young Cali
fornia author and lecturer. "We
must create opportunities of ac
quaintance through schools,
neighborhoods, clubs, workers'
groups, and the like," he added,
"and thus create good will trough
personal relations."
McWilliams condemned the
practice of assigning "stereo
types" to racial groups. "This
practice hinders the individual in
using the abilities he has been
given," he said. He cited the "re
markable similarity of group
stereoptypes" which are "entirely
amiss."
Parent Teaching
"People are not born with pre
judices," said the speaker, "for
science has disproved this out
dated theory." He showed that
children are "taught subtly and
indirectly" by their parents and
associates to be prejudiced.

Campus Wolves Reveal Secrets
To MB Ball Date Hopefuls
BY GILLAN AND SIMON
'Twas a dark and stormy night
and three Mortar Boards were
gathered around a fire. One of
them said, "Tell us a story Walt
and Bob," and so we began:
It may not have occurred to
some of you who havent con
suited a calendar recently, but
1948 (like Hoover's prosperity) is
just around the corner. The Mor
tai Boards, thoughtful old biddies
that they are, feel that the aver
age coed should get in practice
for the coming Leap Year.
Since the writers are, according
to the latest reprint of the Boy
Scout Manuel, obedient, cheerful,
thrifty, friendly, etc., their invalu
able aid was enlisted to give the
members of the other two pre
dominate sexes a few hints on
asking a man to the Ball.
No Admission -
This does not constitute an ad
mission that they have ever asked
a man to a ball nor that they
ever intend to, however ....
The most humorous method at
hand is this
She Are you busy a week from
Friday.
He No, I'm not.
She Well, you better ret on
the ball. It's retting: rather late.
This would probably get gales
of laughter from anyone listening
in, but would hardly get you a
date.
The second method is called the

sorts of conjectures. It does ac

She I want to thank you for
inviting me to the Military Ball,
the first all-university function
of the year, which opened the
formal season. I was greatly en
tertained by the delightful music
of Sunny Dunham and his fine
collection of musicians. I was
further favorably impressed by
the lavish display accompanying
the presentation of the Honorary
Colonel.
I would like to reciprocate your
esteemed favor by asking you to
be my guest at the small fes

are planning for Dec. 12, where
we can dance to the music of
