Seventy Attend
Labor Institute
Nearly 70 representatives from
14 high schools attended the high
school institute on labor problems
for students of social studies and
debate sponsored by the speech
department Saturday at the Tem
ple. Morning session was completed
with talks by Prof. E. C. Buehler,
director of Forensics at the Uni
versity of Kansas; Dr. Leroy T.
T.nnco .hairman of the univer-
ciiv'e cnowh Hpnartment and Dr.
Curtis Elliott, of the economics
department.
The conference began with a
WtnrA nn the history of labor
disputes and labor legislation by
rr rnintt rr Ijiase then made
an analysis of the labor problems
question lor tne purpose ox ia
cilitatine discussion of the ques
tion in conference groups.
Prof Buehler discussed To
Vnur Ideas on Labor Sound Bet
ter or Worse Than They Are?"
with emphasis on tne part voice
and personality play in setting
forth one's idea on the subject.
The afternoon session was de
vntrfvt tn two discussion periods
with separate sessions for students
and high school faculty memoers.
To the Editor,
The Daily Nfbraskan:
The social season is well under
way on this campus, and we be
lieve that this year it brings with
it a peculiarly serious problem. A
big dance means a name band,
and that means a band composed
of members of the American Fed
eration of Musicians. The prob
lem begins with the standard con
tract of the American Federation
of Musicians, a contract which has
been and will be signed by many
student organizations. This con
tract, made between the organ
ization, referred to in the contract
as the employer, and the musi
cians, referred to in the contract
as the employees, includes a clause
that "the musicians performing
services under this contract must
be members of the American Fed
eration of Musicians."
Paction 1, L. B. 344, N4. 1947 Lawi,
provides:
"... r.or Khali any individual or cor
poration or association of any kind enter
into any contract, written or oral, to ex
clude tmni from employment because of
memberKhip in or non-membership in a
labor organization."
e-t!on 2 of that unw statute reads:
'The term 'labor orcani ration' meant,
any organization of any kind, or any
agency or employee representation com
mittee or plan, which ex mm for the pur
pose, in mhoie or in part, of dealing Kith
employer! concerning grievance, labor dia
putes. wagea. rates of pay, hour of em
ployment, or conditicna of work."
There should be no question
that the American Federation of
Musicians is a labor organization.
It should be remembered that
this statute was passed to make
operative the provisions of Sec
tions 13, 14 and IS of Article 15
of the Constitution of Nebraska.
It seems to us that the Consulta
tion and the statute prohibit an
organization entering into a con
tract with a band which will ex
clude persons from employment
because of non-membership in the
labor organization.
The penalty for violation is con
tained in section 3 of the statute,
which says:
"Any individual, corporation, or associa
tion that enter Into a contract after the
effective date of Uiis act In violation of
the provisions of aeetioa 1 of tbia act.
nhall be derated gailty of a miademeanor.
and upon conviction thereof shall be fined
I in a sura of not leaa than one hundred
aoiiara nor Biorv uuw kitc Dnm m-
lars."
We do not know the particular
provisions of the contracts that
have been and will be made by
the student groups. It may be that
the contracts do not contain the
clause in question, or one similar.
However, as pointed out, that
clause appears- in the standard
form contract.
Neither do we know the final
interpretation which will be
placed on this law, and our con
clusions may be faulty. Neverthe
less, it seems to us that a serious
problem is presented. It may be
that our student organizations are
violating the Constitution of the
State of Nebraska.
Sincerely,

Choral Union Gives Sparkling
Rendition of Handel's 'Messiah'
BY SAM WARREN.
Handel's oratorio, "The Mes
siah," beloved the world over for
more than two centuries, was
given one of the most satisfying
performances on this campus in
recent years Cunday in the coli
seum by the University Choral
Union under the baton of Dr.
Arthur Westbrook. The vast audi
ence of more than 8,000 occupy
ing every available seat and
standing in' two corridors heard
four soloists whose individual
arias were outstanding, an or
chestra whose accompaniment
was the securest in many years,
onH a cnnnle chorus that rose to
the various demands of its dozen
portion.
And it was the chorus, as usual,
that was the primary performer.
The chorus responded to Dr.
Westbrook's studied direction
with collorings that ran from tu
multuous full-choir climaxes to
the most ethereally soft shadings.
Particularly notable was the
flexible timbre of the tenor sec
tion whose contrasts of extreme
pianissimo and resounding full
voice were memorable in "His
yoke is easy."
Among the four soloists, tenor
J. Dayton Smith and soprano Jean
Thompson easily took the solo
honors. Smith's rendition of the
opening recitative and air, "Com
fort ye my people" and "Every
valley shall be exalted" set the
mood of excellence that pervaded
the remainder of tne program. His
ringing tenor was a welcome re
turn from last year's soloists.
Soprano Solos Good.
Miss Thompson'.- well-placed
soprano, with its focused, arid
type of brilliance, wa especially
effective in the four soprano rec
itatives which relate the story of
tVi anAk' visitation to the shep
herds in the fields and which leads
to the chorus "Glory to God in the
highest." The familiar "Lome unio
Him" wa handled with much
polish and was a definite highlight
of the program, aitnougn ner
know that my Redeemer liveth"

was somewhat marred by phras
ing inadequacies.
The vibrant contralto of Mrs.
Pauline Anderson was heard to
best advantage in "He shall feed
His flock," which was consider
ably truer in pitch than "He was
despised," an air otherwise sung
with finish. Donald Ellis, lately of
St. Louis and Chicago opera com
panies, for some reason did not
choose to project his mellow bari
tone sufficiently to be heard
throughout the coliseum, and
seemed to have a predilection for
dragging the tempo.
Orchestra Capable.
Prepared by Emanuel Wishnow,
the University Orchestra exhibited
precision in string and brass sec
lions, as well as a general sound
ness. The audience, unfortunately,
had to do without the tranquil
"Pastoral Symphony" interlude
due to a mishap which incapaci
tated the organ shortly before
performance time. The over-all
success of the traditional presen
tation can be credited to its con
ductor. Check Lost, Found
Now, or Trudge
To West Stadium
What you have lost may have
been found! and what was found
may be in the Union office.
Fountain pens, pencils, cigarette
lighters, cigarette cases, glass
cases, pipes, jewelry, compacts and
even a few pairs of eye glasses fill
the drawers. Scarves, gloves,
books, notebooks, shirts, sweaters,
assorted gym clothes line the
shelves.
All it takes is an inquiry, and a
bit of a description, and you may
traverse from rags to riches with
the Union's blessing. Students are
advised that even though they may
have asked for a lost article once,
it may have been turned in later;
try again.
Any articles not called for at
the Union office by Christmas va
cation will be taken to the West
Stadium for further storage. It's a
long walk to West Stadium!
