CITED BY THE DAILY NEBRASKAX Chancellor R. G. Gustavson
and Tom Novak, Ail-American center, who won The Daily Ne
braskan citations for the first semester.
A7 17. and the Big Muddy . . .
Nine honorable mentions go this week to University
faculty and staff members participating in Nebraska's com
mittee for the Missouri basin. These men deserve more than
mention . . . they deserve our most sincere praise for active
interest in their state's welfare.
Highest honors go to Dean W. V. Lambert of the Ag
college for his part in the program as chairman of the com
mittee. Nebraska can depend on him to see that the state
receives maximum benefit from the Missouri valley pro
gram. The governor can depend on him for expert advice
when he represents the state on the interagency committee.
More honors go to Chancellor R. G. Gustavson, who saw
an opportunity for the University to extend its services in
a program of such vast importance to Nebraskans. To the
University student the Missouri valley program may seem
of little immediate importance. But it is our generation
which will be the first to receive the benefits such a project
can offer.
The same praise is in order for George E- Condra for
extending the University's conservation and survey and
geology asistance to the basin committee. Such technical
service will greatly aid Nebraska's role in basin develop
ment. And finally, for expressing willingness to co-operate in
development of Nebraska's policy, further recognition is
deserved by Carl Borgmann, Harry Gould, Marvel Baker,
Earl Maxwell, Roy M. Green and H. F. Rhoades.
All Nebraska is looking to these men to bring the
reeded balance to the Missouri basin project.

THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
Man
of the
Week
Alter viewing Tuesday night's
basketball game with Kansas, we
can scarcely give the Man of the
Week award to anyone but Bus
Whitehead, although we must
confess we nearly picked the edi
tor and two managing editors of
this paper for the mental agony
they went through in awarding
The Daily Nebraskan citations.
Whitehead has been giving the
Cornhuskers the spark they lost
last year when Claude Rether
ford graduated. In singling out
the elongated center, we don't
mean to ignore a few other stars
in the line-up, such as Tony Law
ry, Joe Malacek, Bob Pierce, Joe
Brown, Jim Buchanan, Bob Cerv,
et al.
But we do leel that without
Whitehead's presence, the team's
record would not be what it is
today. Against highly-touted
Clyde Lovellette of the Jayhawks,
the Buster looked like an All
American. And we are becoming con
vinced that maybe that is just
what he is.

Campus
Chatter
Bv Jean Fenster
It has been suggested by Ajon
Farber, Wednesday's Guest Edi
tor, and seconded by yours truly
that we establish a new tradition
on ye old campus. One of the
most famous traditions of Iowa
State campus is the fact that a
girl isn't a "coed" until she's been
kissed under their Campanille
Tower at the stroke of midnight.
Being a "coed" however, indi
cates that you are "going steady"
or one step from being pinned. In
all respect to our recently con
structed Mueller Carillon Tower
it seems only logical that such a
sentimental tradition should be
inaugurated. In view of this situa
tion we present the idea to YOU.
What do you think?
The fellows at the Tau house
are wondering just exactly where
Doyle Busskohl's pin is at. Some
think it may be at the Phi house.
Jean Loudon, Alpha chi,
walked off with the laurels last
Saturday nitiht as she was chosen
pledge sweetheart of Sigma Chi.
Jean was escorted to the dance
by Bob Dawson.
The recently elected eight Elig
ible Bachelors are drawing up a
petition for presentation to the
A.W.S. Board. In effect, they are
ic-questing eight seats at the Coed
Follies because they "feel that
this gesture would do much to
imnrnve the social relations be
tween the male and female
sex ..."
There's some rumor that Suiie
Techa and Bob McMasters have
been seeing quite a lot of each
other lately . . .
More pinnings and engagements
have occurred recently. One of
t':,S most shocking candy passings
Monday night was at the Tri Pelt
"Authors of the Ages," 9:30 p.m.
Thursday over KFOR.
In typical high fashion, Studio B
presents a typical drama of a typi
ical family, called "A Typical
Family." It seems this typical
show contains a typical love af
fair, typical problems, and typical
people. It also prormscs a j0t of
typical comedy. It comes cn that
typical radio station KLMS at
9:30 p. m. Wednesday.
Typical, eh!
Sican Song, 1950 ...
This being the last Daily Nebraskan of the semester, we
supose our public expects something in the way of a swan
song. Pardon us if our sentiment is showing.
Not being too well practiced in the art of writing swan
songs, we have looked into the writings of past editors to
see what they had to say to their successors.
Two years ago the editor advised the crown prince to
get into the middle of everything of importance at the Uni
versity from politics to society to sports. He wanted some
one who was "in" on everything.
Last spring the editor called for a "detached" editor one
who viewed the campus "with tongue in cheek" (I translate
word for word.)
We would not advise my successor to be either. Since
we have always felt that it is an editor's personality more
than his activities that make a good or bad paper, we would
suggest that the heir apparent deviate not one bit from his
past experience. We believe that he, or '-he, will do a much
better job by keepirg up any and all outside activities.
In our research into the final editorials of our predeces
sors, we find that they all try to sum up what they have
done and what has happened on the campus in their tenure.
In some of our more optimistic moods, we have felt that
we have a done a good job as editor. But then we look into
the vault where we store the many irate, bitter letters from
our readers and think maybe we haven't. We have decided
to postpone final judgment on the matter.
It is certain, however, that The Daily Nebraskan is
more widely read this year. In a sense, then, we have been
sucessful. We are sure that our successor can be even more
successful next semester. The spring semester always has
brought forth more big stories.
A Fcxc Suggestions
We know the new editor will make his weight felt
around the campus. Hoping we don't appear to be telling
him how to run his paper, we would like to see him devote a
good deal of time to the following subjects, issues we think
are of prime importance at this time:
1. A new Council constitution, stating specifically its
powers, duties and responsibilities. We think half of the
Council's drawbacks will be eliminated once this is done.
2. Posibilities of financing a Student Union addition.
This is one of the worthiest projects we have encountered
during four years at the University, and the student body
should back it to the utmost.
3. A teacher grading system. We feel both students and
instructors can be benefited by such a system.
4. An investigation of student activities, with special at
tention to the methods of selecting new members. We have
always felt that this campus is too full of "ticket-sellers" and
rather empty as far as interested workers are concerned.
There are certainly other issues which will deserve con
sideration. The students can be assured they will not be over
looked by the new staff.
We conclude with an earnest wish for a successful
semester.
And now, like the Arab, we fold our tent and silently
steal away. Cub aem
