Chances
BY JOAN KRVEGER
If you're at all interested in
participating in campus activi
ties, there's still plenty of oppor
tunities to get started this year.
At least 9 campus organiza
tions Nebraska Builders, The
Daily Nebraskan, Cornhusker,
Bed Cross, Cornshucks, WAA,
AUF, NUCWA and the Union
give freshman and upperclass
men workers a chance to work
toward executive positions ac
cording to the work and time
contributed to the organization.
Several of these organizations
are particularly interested in
getting volunteers to participate
in the activity.
The importance of University
students participating in at least
one or two activities during their
college career is stressed by Stu
dent Council President Roz How
ard, who points out that there are
at least two things every student
should get out of college: The
ability to acquire knowledge, and
the ability to get along with peo
ple. Win Friends
"The curriculum of the various
colleges takes care of the first,"
says Howard, but activities play
a vital part in learning to get
along with people.
Howard listed at least six ad
vantages students can derive by
participation in activities that
will help them after graduation.
Many activities teach one how
to sell, how to organize commit
tees and projects and how to
budget one's time, says Howard.
In addition, the student has op
portunities to assume responsi
bility and authority, and learn to
value of co-operation.
Lastly, continued the Council
president, all activities help the
students gain valuable experience
In dealing formally and inform
ally with their fellow men.
Adjust to Society
Concluding, Howard said that
much of the success one achieves
after college is attributed to the
ability to get along in society.
"Besides technical knowledge,"
states Howard, "the individual
needs a pleasing personality."
This is added through participa
tion in activities during the col
lege career, maintains the presi
dent. With the opening of filings for
various positions in organizations,
students who have worked thus
far during the year will have op
portunity to be elected to offices
in their respective groups. And
many of the organizations still
have openings for workers. At
present approximately ten fresh
rnen work as reporters on The
Daily Nebraskan. At the end of
the semester they will be eligible
to apply for editorial positions
and business positions on the
staff. Three of the present staff
members are sophomores who
were freshmen workers last year.
Rag Calls Reporters
Because of the enlarged paper
second semester, the staff has is
sued calls for more students who
ere willing to work as report
ers. They are urged to come to
The Daily Nebraskan office in
the Union basement from 1 to 5
p. m. each day.
Among the positions on this
year's Cornhusker staff, 20 are
occupied by sophomores, or stu
dents who worked on the year
book for the first time last year.
The majority of the work on this
activity will be concluded by the
end of February, says the staff.
The ten workers who have put
In the greatest number of hours
this year will be given free in
vitations to the Cornhusker ban
quet later in the semester.
Enter 'Shucks' Contest
Corn Shucks staff members
are looking for talent. According
to Frank Jacobs, editor, the best
way for students to earn jobs on
this publication is to enter the
contests the humor magazine is
sponsoring. Six section editors
were recently selected for Corn
Shucks from the workers who
bad spent the most hours work
ing on the magazine.
"Since the issues are all dif
ferent," says Jacobs, the staff is
constantly looking for new lay
out ideas and new talent. "There
is a place and need for imagina
tion in the office," continued the
editor.
On the business staff of the
Cornshucks, students may also
work for the publication.
Many Red Cross Jobs
If any students are interested
Jn working in Red Cross, they
will be given jobs such as con
tacting entertainers, driving cars,
helping plan parties or pro
grams. Women may also work
s Gray Coeds at Student Health.
Gene Berg, student advisor to
Bed Cross, estimated that about
one hundred freshmen have
been participating in the campus
unit this year. Audrey Rosen
baum, past president of the
group, was recently elected to
the board directors for Lan
caster County chapter of Red
Cross.
Athletes Called
Women who have any inclina
tions toward athletics, are wel
come in the WAA. Membership
is taken from girls who have
participated in intramural acti
vities or the various clubs, which
include the Rifle club, Duck Pins,
Aquaquettcs. Badminton and
Befereei club. Any student may
join the clubs by coming to the
meetings.
In order to be eligible for
WAA, stated Peggy Mulvaney,
board member, a student must
meet one of the following spe
cifications: 1. Participation In at least three
intramural tournaments; 2. par
ticipation in two intramural tour
naments and one club that func

AUF SOLICITORS The above students participated in the AUF drive on campus this fall, only
one of many opportunities for underclassmen interested in working in campus activities. AUF
members begin as solicitors and then may work up to posts of chairmen or board members. The
AUF worker set-up is much like those of other campus groups, where interested students have a
chance to participate and by proving their ability may move to greater positions of responsibility.

delegates are meeting weekly
now to plan the conference and
hear speakers on the various
problems to be discussed in the
con ference.
Participation of students Is
not limited to NUCWA members
or upperclassmen. All University
students may take part. Several
freshmen have been named as
delegates of various countries in
the conference. Announcement of
the meetings and speakers are
made in The Daily Nebraskan.
The model conference is spon
sored by one of the five depart
ments of NUCWA. Any student
wanting to join NUCWA, the Ne
braska University Council of
World Affairs, may do so by at
tending the regular meetings of
the organization.
Union Openings
Freshmen workers in Union
activities number about three
hundred, says Mrs. Gencne
Grimm, Activities Director. There
is always a need for workers
though, she points out.
"It isn't a matter of waiting to
be called," she continues, "stu
dents can always come to the
office and there will be work."
Some of the various commit
tees of the Union are: General
entertainment, special activities,
convocations, dance, music, house
and hospitality, competitive
games and hobby interest and
public relations.
A large number of the com
mittee chairmen this year are
freshmen workers from last
year. The workers are placed in
an "activities pool," and they
work according to a merit sys
tem. Positions are awarded on
the basis of amount and quality
of work.
Each month the Union spon
sors special events, at which time
added workers are needed to
help with the planning and to
serve as hostesses. Students who
have signed up in the Activities
office designating that they want
to work are called.
Next Tear's Al'F
Any student who wants to
work next year on AUF has been
urged by the organization to file
for positions open to members of
their respective classes. Accord
ing to Jo Lisher, head solicitor,
under the revamping of the or
ganization, a great number of
workers will be needed next
year.
Although those who put in
work on AUF during the drive
last fall will be given first con
sideration for positions, other in
terested students should apply.
Freshmen who worked this year
are eligible for positions in the
group delegated to sophomores
or above.

Yale Official Sees
VA 'Tug-of-War'
"A thorough investigation of
the GI Bill" is predicted by A.
D. Ferguson, Yale University's
dirtctor of veterans affairs. He
said tnat Congress and the Vet
erans Administration are waging
"a tug-of-war" over proposed
cutting of GI education costs.
Ferguson stated that the un
expected and increasing cost and
size of the GI bill has led to at
tempts to restrict veteran edu
cation. The cost threatens to
reach 25 billion dollars.
"Under the terms of the GI
Bill, July 25, 1951, Is the last
date on which a veteran may ap
ply for educational benefits.

The large cases of goods that

the back-breaking work of de
livery is eliminated.
During the war, the kitchen
proved its efficiency. Facilities
were adjusted in order that large
numbers of Army personnel
might be fed.
At all times the equipment has
been kept in good shape.
New Oven Needed
However there is now a need
for a new bake oven. Mrs. Lager
stated that the one presently in
use is very temperamental and
old.
According to the cooks, it has
simply been overworked. There
is not enough accuracy and goods
being baked must be watched
constantly.
Also there Is a need for a buf
fet service and coffee service,
said Mrs. Freeman.
The most important policy of
the food director is to buy only
the best food. In this phase of
operating, absolutely no corners
are cut. The same policy is fol
lowed in regards to hiring reli
able employees.
Substation Personnel To End

for their 1950 research projects

the 25 staff members from the

Tarheels Puzzle
Over Skeletons
"I have a bone to pick with
you," a workman at the Univer
sity of North Carolina said to the
building superintendent recently,
as he handed him a large bone
covered with lime and partially
decomposed by the chemical.
The bone, it developed, was
part of a skeleton which work
men had just dug up from under
the walk on the east side of the
library. In a few minutes the
curious excavators unearthed a
second skeltnn, this one in a
brass handled coffin.
It was suggested that one of
the skeltons might be that of a
Yankee soldier, killed during the
Civil war. Another person offered
the idea that it might be the re
mains of an unpopular professor.
The most plausible solution,
however, was that the skeletons
were what was left of two med
ical school cadavers, which were
sometimes buried in a hurry.
Still unexplained is the old
fashioned cookie jar found be
tween the knees of the coffin
buried skeleton.

Job Prospects Good
For Class of 1950
The graduating class of 1950
will be the biggest in the history
of the university. Just how many
of these graduates will be able
to secure the kind of jobs they
want?
This question was asked of
persons in charge of job place
ment in Teachers College, the
School of Journalism, and the
College of Business Administra
tion. Dr. F. E. Sorcnson, chairman
of tne Department of Educa
tional Services, said that there
will be a much greater demand
for elementary teachers than the
department will be able to take
care of. Not only will all of the
Teachers college graduates be
placed, he said, but there will not
be half enough teachers for the
elementary school level.
It is possible, however, that
some prospective teachers who
are taking popular courses of
study at the university will have
to take jobs in their minor fields.
Teachers of certain subjects, Sor
enson explained, are much more
in demand than others.
One reason for the large num
ber of teaching jobs available,
according to Sorcnson, is that
many teachers arc still on tem
porary certificates. These, he ex
plained, probably will not be is
sued again.
"It is very evident now that
school systems are raising stan
dards," Sorsenson said, and he
predicted that in the future ele
mentary school teachers would
find it very much to their ad
vantage to have at least four
years of college behind them.
High school teachers, he said,
would soon need five years of
college training to be eligible.
Dr. William F, Swindler, Dean
of the School of Journalism,
maintains that job opportunities
for Journalism in this area are
always good. "We serve a very
large area," he explained, "in
cluding southwest Iowa, all of
Nebraska, a large part of Wyo
ming, and western South Da
kota." Dr. Swindler said that it might
take longer to get the 1950 class
placed .because of its size, but
that he felt that everyone could
be placed.
The weekly newspaper, he
said, is the greatest user of Uni
versity graduates. It is from this
type of paper that about 75 per
cent of the offers of positions
come to Dr. Swindler's office.
Exams . . .
(Continued from Page 1.)
more numerous comments In
cluded that finals be shorter,
similar to 6 week exams: to re
duce emphasis on finals, use
more quizzes; to vary the length
of the exam in terms of credit
hours; to have a rest period after
exams so instructors can meet
classes and go over exams, clari
fying misunderstanding; to give
no exams in laboratory courses;
to excuse superior students.
Recommend Changes
They also recommend exams
for multi-section courses onlv;
to improve physical facilities for
large group exams, no lap-
boards; to elminate departmen
tal exams; to have exams de
termined by department policy
and to have directed reading
periods for freshmen.
The most popular comment of
students was to make final
exams shorter while an equal
amount felt that too much em
phasis is placed on finals. They
also wrote that more exams
should be given during the
term: conditions as to noise
should be improved; seniors
should be excused from finals;
the instructor should outline the
material; exam questions should
be kept secret; more objective
and more practical exams should
be given; superior students
should be excused.
Keep Library Open
They also suggested that the
library be kept open until 10:30
p.m.: smoking should be allowed
during exams, and old finals
should be available for review.
As seen by the roll, students
and faculty placed the most em
phasis on finals.
The problem of final examina
tions was first considered by the
liaison committee in February,
1949. Dr. M. A. Basoco, then
chairman of the liaison commit
tee, asked the examination com
mittee to consider a group of
the problems.
First was the safekeeping of
examination questions; second,
the two-day review period; third
hour-length of final examina
tions; and fourth, the failure of
a few instructors to hold final
examinations.
In addition, the examination
committee received letters ques
tioning the nine-day period al
loted to final examinations.
The student-faculty survey
was a result of the work of this
committee.
32 Men Selected
For Radio Shows
Thirty-two male students were
auditioned Monday ind Tuesday
of this week for the staff of the
University radio productions.
These men were classified into
three divisions.
In the A division were Dick
Carson, Ed McCullough and Bob
Reidy. Jack Bates, Dick Freeh,
Louis Meyers, Forrest Barron,
Arved Christensen, Bob Jeam
bey, Kent Komarek, Jack Lange,
Dale Samuelson and John Woo
din were placed in the B divi
sion. Classed in the C division were
Sanford Levy, Dick Root, Keith

Kirk, Robert Hill, Lawrence
Luebbe, Glenn Mc-Mullen, Jim
Fafeith, Gerald Robertson, Dick
Shubert, Charles Stewart, Ray
Swanson, Don Thackrey, Dan
Tolman, Neil Trabert, Don Wag
ner, Wayne W'ells and Clarence
Wurc'inger.
The auditions, held In the
Temple building, were for news,
sports, and general announcers.
Schedules for meetings of the
three groups will be posted in the
Temple Monday, Feb. 20.
Another 10 percent come from
advertisers, and 16 percent from
radio stations. Five percent of
the offers come from Metropoli
tan dailies and major wire ser
vices. Theodore T. Bullock, in charge
of job placement for the college
of business administration, said
that it is impossible to determine
accurately at this time just how
many jobs will be available in
June.
According to Bullock, compan
ies are filing with him earlier
for student interviews this sem
ester than last, and he will soon
be able to get an idea of how
many Jobs will be available this
spring.
