Foundation Re-Christened
U of Nebraska Builders
At last the Student Foundation
has a new name.
The Foundation board voted
last night to re-christen the or
ganization University of Nebraska
Builders.
The selection of a name for the
organization was the result of a
campus-wide contest begun in
February. Since two persons sub
mitted the title the $10 award will
be divided between Elizabeth
Schneider and Dean T. J. Thomp
son. THE TEN DOLLAR award was
supplied by Chancellor R. G. Gus
tavson.
From a list of 85 entries a com
mittee composed of Elsworth Du
Toon Miss Marv Mielenz. Nancv
Porter. Gene Berg. Genene Mit
chell and Ginny Koch twelve
names were selected. The board
made the final selection.
Entries were solicited from the
entire famous through boxes lo
cated in the Union Suggestions
ramp from both student and fac
ulty members. The contest was
Greek Student Supported
By Home Ec Club Funds
The annual Silver Tea, spon
sored by the Home Ec club, will
be held Sunday afternoon from
3-5 at Love Memorial hall on the
Ag campus. The public is invited
to attend.
An annual affair .the tea has
as its purpose the raising of
funds to finance a foreign stu
dent scholarship. An award such
as this has enabled Miss Maria
Constantinidcs to attend the Uni
versity for the past year.
MISS CONST ANTINIDES, as
well as the students with whom
she has come in contact, has
benefitted by the scholarship.
Home economics students have
gained a broader understanding
into the problems of another
country through talking with her.
Athens, Greece, is home to Miss
Constaninides. She was educated
in the High School of Home Eco
nomics in Athens, and spent two
years at the College of Home
Economics in Athens.
During the war, Miss Constan
tinides was a dietitian in a hos
pital for wounded Greek soldiers.
She experienced dealing with
German authorities after their
occupation of Greece, for one of
her duties was to obtain food for
Greek patients from the Germans
who had taken over one-half the
hospital.
WHILE ATTENDING high
school and college, she became
aware of the need for education
aod a raise in living standards
in the rural areas of Greece. Her
instructors urged her to seek a
means by which she could study
in the United States. Two years
later, her application to the In
stitute of International Educa
tion wsa accepted, and she was
awarded a scholarship.
Wishing to see as much of the
United States as possible, Miss
planned by Kathy Dodson, Pat
Pierce and Mary Hubka.
The board also voted to noia a
re-registration of all members.

friendly attitude of the people,
and their willingnes to help one

oiaix duripnt fpel SO much at

MISS CONSTANTINIDES is
very grateful for the opportunity
to learn, and to carry her knowl
edge back to Greece. She hopes

people, through teaching, in an
effort to better the living stand
ards of her community.

'Eternal Mask'
Here April 1, 2
"The Eternal Mask," a Swiss
made film in German dialogue,
will be presented in Love Library
auditorium April 1 and 2 at 8
p. m. It" is another in a series of
leading European pictures spon
sored by the University YMCA.
The film, a psychological study
of insanity, concerns the story of
voung doctor whose confidence
in an anti-meningitis serum he
has produced leads him to admin
ister it to a hopelessly incurable
patient. When death ensues, the
patient's widow hysterically
charges the doctor with respon
sibility. The resultant mental agony
causes a mental breakdown in the
young doctor. The triumph of
modern rjsvchologv in restoring
him to sanity provides an ending
that is by no means artmciai or
melodramatic.
Newsweek magazine reviewed
the picture as ". . .an absorbing
and sane study of insanity, bril
liantly acted."

High Living
Costs Foree
Budget Raise
Part of the University's pro
posed budget increase will be used
for higher salaries.
Four basic factors are consid
ered in determining the pay of an
instructor. One, the cost of living,
means the instructor must be paid
enough wages to provide him and
his family a decent living.
From 1935 to 1939 Nebraska as
sociate professors and Instructors
received salaries necessary to
maintain a reasonable standard of
living. Since then their salaries
have not .tept pace with the in
creased cost of living.
A SECOND factor to be con
sidered in determining an instruc
tor's pay is competition. This
means that the University will do
everything it can to keep an ef
ficient teacher on its staff. The
University has suffered large loss
es in its faculty, however, to
other higher paid positions.
Third, the University must not
only offer pay raises but must
also offer promotion to positions
of greater responsibility. Fourth,
the University should be in a good
position to mee these demands in
times of high production and
high income.
