NUCWA Members to Air
Federal Law Proposals
The opinions of students at
Nebraska will be heard in the
U. S. congress. NUCWA members
will discuss three proposals, now
before the federal lawmakers, at
their monthly meeting Thursday
at 7:30 p. m. in parlor Y, Union.
The matters which NUCWA
will consider are the Senate reso
lution for strengthening the
United Nations (Ferguson-Graham
resolution), creation of an
Atlantic union and development
of the United Nations into a
world federation.
NUCWA will submit its opin
ions on these issues to its parent
organization, the Collegiate
Council for the United Nations.
CCUN will in turn testify before
Congressional committees, pre
senting Nebraska's view along
with the views of other CCUN
affiliates.
Atlantic I'nion
The creation of an Atlantic
union, now being reviewed by the
Thomas subcommittee, would
mean the establishment of a fed
eral government, but one re
stricted to the democracies of
western Europe and North Amer
ica. NUCWA will also submit its
opinion on the resolution offered
by the United World Federalists
in hearings which are devoted to
a consideration of methods of
strengthening the United Nations.
The resolution states: I
"It is the sense of the Congress j
that it should be a fundametnal !

Ag Eshelman has named the
theme of his displays as "Elec

A senior, F.shclman is enrolled
in Engineering college. He takes
engineering courses with some
special training in agricultural
applications. Following gradua

powers adequate to preserve
peace and prevent aggression
through the enactment, interpre
tation and enforcement of world
law."
Senate Resolution
The Ferguson-Graham resolu
tion provides several steps for
strengthening the UN. It calls for
the United States to cooperate
with other governments in re
moving the veto from all ques
tions involving pacific settle
ments of international disputes
and situations, and from admis
sion of new members.
The resolution would promote
the immediate membership of all
countries qualified for member
ship under Article 4 of the UN
charter to the end of making the
United Nations universal. It
would eliminate the reservations
made by the United States to its
acceptance of the optional clause
of the statute of the International
Court of Justice. It calls for ac
ceptance by all countries of the
optional clause without reserva
tions, so as to give the court com
pulsory jurisdiction in legal dis
putes as defined in Article 36 of
the statute.
Armed Guard
Further development of the
armed guard force and field ser
vice under the secretary-general
would insure adequate protection
to missions of the United States
in the course of their operations.
The Ferguson-Graham resolu
tion would renew efforts, at a
political level, to secure agree
ment for the contribution of
forces and assistance under the
provision of Article 43 of the
charter. This issue is one of those
which will be considered by the
model United Nations general as
sembly when it meets March
17-24.
The resolution would bring
about the utilization by all UN
members of suitable measures for
collective self-defense under Ar
ticle 51 of the charter as neces
sary to maintain peace and se
curity. The United Nations would have
direct administration of certain
disputed areas where such ad
ministration would contribute to
the peace of the world.
I N Revenue
The resolution also would bring
about passage of appropriate
legislation to facilitate the pro
vision of independent sources of
revenue for the United Nations
in addition to the revenue pro
vided by contributions from
members.
Support for the principals of
the United Nations charter res
pecting fundamental freedoms is
another provision of the resolu
tion. It would have the UN interna
tional law commission prepare an
international criminal code and a
statute for an international crim
inal court.
Finally, the Ferguson-Graham
resolution calls for a program of
technical assistance to under
developed countries through the
United Nations. This is another
issue which will be debated at
the University's mock UN as
sembly. It will be turned over to
the economic and financial com
mittee at the conference.

Combine
of Brave'
Six male students of the Uni
versity will make their contri
bution to the UNESCO program
for March when they appear in
the prize winning play, "Home
of the Brave," Monday, March
13 at the Nebraska Theatre.
To be presented in cooperation
with the Model U N assembly
program this month, the play is
being sponsored by University
Theatre and Nebraska Masquers.
Winner of the New York Critics
Circle Award or- 1945-46, the
play was written by Arthur
Laurient as a result of the last
war.
With UNESCO naming March
as International Theatre Month,
the play was chosen as an ideal
choice dealing with brotherhood
and human tolerance.
Katx Directs
Cast members are working un
der the direction of Abe Katz,
who also takes the lead part.
They are Bill Line as the doctor,
Mike Shanahan as Major Robin
son, Milt Hoffman as Corporal
Eeritt, Joe Moore as Sergeant
Mingo, and Katz as "Cooney."
Setting of the play is a Pacific
island during World War II. Ac
tion revolves about an army
nivate, Peter "Coney" Coen,
who suddenly becomes mentally
distraught. He receives psychia
tric assistance from an Army
doctor and from Sergeant Min
go's admissions to similar vul
nerabilities and self weakness. I
In an interview, Director Katz
said, "With the forthright in
telligence of Arthur Laurient,
has evolved a play which sharp
ly outlines the ignorance of
bigotry and racial prejudice.
This message is not striven for
the playwright but emerges
vividly from the people within
the play and the accelerated
tempo of the war situation in
which they are engulfed."
"Sound Drama"
Continued Katz, "Its charac
ters search for self-adjustment
and the ever-present need for
self justification." The director
emphasized, "The play is sound
psychological drama written in
bold, striking modern realistic
terms."
As for technical aspects, the
production staff will strive to
make costumes and proper
tics "functional and authenti
cally realistic," according to
' Katz.
The setting will be impres
! sionistic, highlighted by the use
of unusual lighting to allow the
audience to create whatever lm- !
pression they value for them
selves. Tickets will be on sale from j
Monday, March 6, until Monday,
March 13. at the Union from 10
a. m. to 5 p. m. and the Temple !
Theatre box-office from 1 p. m.
until 5 p. m.
Consultant Gives
Marriage Advice
"Marry a woman who knows
more than you do" is the advice
given to college men by War
ren Bruner, management consul
tant conducting an experimental
course in career determination at
Marietta College in Ohio.
He said that a man tends to
gain in mental stature as he
progresses ir his work, but a
woman does not when sn; enters
a career as a homemaker.
Bruner claims that many di
vorces occur because men often
seek a more compatible mate
during middle life if their wives
have had too little education.

Journalism Creative Writing
Class Gains World Attention
Nebraska's course in creative j
thinking, the first of its kind, is
reaching into far corners of the !
world, according to Prof. Rob
ert P. Crawford.
The course, taught by Profes
sor Crawford, helps the student
to secure new ideas in all fields.
Although the course was orig
inally designed for journalism
students, it has now spread to
many other fields. It is taught
only the first semester.
Jens Gram Barth. of Oslo,
Norway, wrote Professor Craw
ford to ask if the University
would have any objection to use
of Crawford's studies to develop
creative thinking in that coun
try. Barth said that altho he
had made a year's tour of Amer- i
ica which included Nebraska, he
had first read of the course after
his return to Norway.

Order for Next Six Days
"Smile Week" began yesterday
and will continue for the next
six days. National Smile Week
is March 6-11.
After one day's smiling, a sur
vey showed that most Univer
sity students were sick of the
whole thing.
"It's spring." sighed one coed,
"and I'm too lazy to smile."
Others objected that they
couldn't see any reason to smile
if they didn't have anything to
smile about. "And what's there
to smile about with all these six
weeks tests," someone rejjiarked.
Proof that people do smile,
however, can be found in the
picture at left. Bev Deal, sopho
more coed, shows how it looks
to radiate cheerfulness. (Mighty
good, huh?)
And on the right, last year's
Innocent Prexy Norm Leger
gives with his most Jnnocent
scowl. (Note the correlation
factor between smiles and suc
cess in activities is hereby
proved to be nil.)
But for the rest of us, who
aren't beautiful or Innocent,
"Smile Week" offers some hope.
According to chief-smiler Joe E.
'Schooner1' Appeared
In Roaring Twenties
The first issue of The Prairie
Schooner was published 23 years
ago, in 1927. It was born in
the peak of the "roaring twen
ties," the day when small maga
zines sprang up everywhere.
Some of these were the pulp
kind, others literary journals,
weeklies, and digests.
The Schooner differed from
the other magazines in that it
was not an organ of some clique
of organization. It was not a
plaything of some rich man or
foundation. It was not a side
line of a big-time publisher who
wanted to get in on the easy
money.
And since it had no motive
other than literary expression, it
survived the deary '30s while its
fellow magazines died in great
numbers from lack of funds.
Some of them merged, others
went bankrupt, and many des
perately packed themselves with
advertising or changed their
content entirely.
And all of this time the
Schooner carried on, providing
encouragement for amateur
writers, and publishing contribu
tions from successful writers
who could have been paid large
sums for their work from other
magazines.
The Schooner's first issue con
tained a story by Marie Macum
ber who later was to be known
as I'arie Sandoz. now a famous
novelist and author of "Crazy
Horse" and "Old Jules."
Cover Chances
The quarterly has had three
changes of cover, in 1937, 1940,
and 1948. Each has carried the
familiar symbol of the magazine,
a picture of an ox-cart drawn
covered wagon, which represents
the pioneer-settled plains of Ne
braska. Says Bess Streeter Aldrich of
the Schooner's founding: "Any
movement which attempts to
further the advancement of the
arts in Nebraska will always
meet with the approval of her
loyal thinking people."
The Schooner has branched

out, however, to include works
by authors from all over the
world. The forthcoming spring
issue of the magazine has articles
from Alabama, Honolulu, New
York, Iceland, Mexico, Texas,
Maryland, and California.
Nebraskans are still the most
frequent contributors and the
magazine is still clearly a Ne
braskan publication.
The Schooner ranks at the top
of publications of its kind sub
sidized as the others are. In the
case of the Southwest review.
Southern Methodist's official lit
erary magazine, Dallas merchants
raised $10,000 in a drive to keep
the organ on its feet.
Texan Influence
Work in the Southwest review
reflects Texan influence, and its
pages display a representation
of Texan lite.
The Schooner, in contrast,
though retaining intact its defi
nite prairie character, has broad
ened its scope to include many
works by authors everywhere.
In addition, the Schooner has no
financial help other than the
revenue from subscription sales.
One reader who lives in Swit
zerland wrote the Schooner to
tell them that he prefers it over
the Atlantic monthly and Har
per's magazine as an interpre
tation of American life.
Over the years the magazine's
staff has changed considerably.
Lowell C. Wimberly, however,
has remained as editor for 23
years. Emily Schossberger it
currently the assistant editor in
charge of publication.
Says Miss Schossberger:
"Many people know the Uni
versity because it is the school
where the Prairie Schooner is
published."
This proves the magazine's in
fluence as a publicizer of the
University of Nebraska.
