To Manage
NIPs Farms
Dr. Phillip A. Henderson,
Nuckolls county farmer, has
taken over the management of
the University of Nebraska's five
development farms, the Univer
sity announced 'Tucsdav.
Dr. W. V. Lambert. ' dean of
the College of Agriculture, said
the farms, which were given to
the University, will be operated
as demnnstrational farms and not
for experimental purposes.
Two of the farms. Dean Lam
bert said, have been badly de
pleted. He said the land will
be operated under sound man
agement practices with facilities
to which the ordinary farmer has
access. The depleted farms arc
expected to beliuilt up by use of
best agricultural practices in
order to justify improvements.
None of the farms will be sub
sidized by the University, he
said, and they must pay for their
improvements.
Three of the farms are oper
ated on a livestock share lease

Class Discussion
Recent research on the effect
of class size on student discus
sion seems to indicate that the
size of the group makes a dif
ference in effectivness of the
' learning experience of the group
as a whole, a survey at Stephens
college shows.
Wire recordings were made of
classroom discussions and these
were stcnographically transcribed
for evaluation. According to the
report, in a small class discussion
tended to become argumentative,
the student was more apt to de
fend his personal position, and
the students and the teacher be
came distracted by single per
sonalities. Groups that were loo large
tended to overlook most of the
individuals and the average stu
dent could not develop his feel
ings very far. It was also found
that because the quality of par
ticipation was lessened, the prep
aration for the class was affected.

Union-goers will have a
chance to hear some South
American rhythm Thursday, 4
6 p. m., in the Union ballroom.
Providing the music will be a
combination of Latin and North
American students now attend
ing the University and members
of the Cosmopolitan Club.
The same combo furnished
music at the International
Friendship dinner program at
the Union recently. The group
was formed by Bob Webster,
American student, especially for
the program.
Students that will participate
in the jam session and the in
struments they play: Luis Mu
noz, Panama, campana; Enrique
Jarmalls, Panama, piano; Rafael
Polanco, Venezuela, sencero; Ju
lio Slanchez, Panama, bongo;
Pedro Mircha, Panama, maracas;
Richard Wilhelm, United States,

California U.
Students Blast
'Loyally Oath'
In a telephone survey of one
hundred students made by the
Daily Californian (official pub
lication of the University of Cal
ifornia) nine out of ten students
do not desire a student loyalty
oath. Only 46 would sign such
an oath if made a requirement
for entrance at the university.
Although there has been no
public suggestion of such an oath
for U.C. students, precedent for
such an oath was set last fall at
the University of Texas.
That university has in opera
tion a loyalty oath requirement
for the faculty and students alike.
The Texas oath states "I swear
or affirm that I am not and have
not been a member of or affili
ated with any society or group
of poisons which teaches or ad
vocates that the government of
the United States or of any state
or of any political subdivision
thereof should be overthrown or
destroyed by force, violence or '
any other unlawful means ."
U.C. students' answers ranged
from an outright protest if such
a law be enacted, to passive re
sistance or indifference. Manv
students who were against such
a loyalty check would sign the
oath just to keep in school.
Hall Fund Gives University
Chance to Buy Art Works
It has become i custom to do
most of the buying for the Uni
versity's permanent art collec
tion from the works exhibited at
the Nebraska Art association
show. . 1
Through a bequest from the
estate of Mr. and Mrs. Frank M.
Hall, the University is able to
purchase several works each
year. As a precaution the Halls
stipulated in their will that no
purchase could be made until
approved in writing by "two
well-recognized expert judges of
pictures and works of art."
This year, Otto Karl Back, di
rector of the Denver Art mu
seum, and Frederick A. Sweet,
associate curator of painting and
sculpture at the Art Institute of
Chicago, will judge the exhibit
and make their selections for the
permanent collection from rec
ommendations of faculty mem
bers and the state association.
$100,000 Since 1930
The Board of Regents has i
made provision that purchases
be restricted to the amount of
the income produced by the
trust. To date no encroachmenj
has been made upon the prin
cipal. Since 1930, and including
this year, nearly $100,000 has
been made available for pur
chases for "The Collection of Mr.
and Mrs. Frank Hall," at the
University art galleries. Ap
proximately $7,000 will be avail
able for purchases from the Hall
trust fund in 1950.
The Nebraska Art association
sponsors and pays the entire
out-of-pocket cost of the annual
exhibition. In addition to the
purchases made from the Hall
trust, the Nebraska Art associa
tion purchases a picture or two
each year for its own collection,
which is housed at the Univer
sity and intermingled with that
collection.
Together, the art works pur
chased over the term of years
by the University and the state
association, constitute one of the
outstanding collections of con
temporary American art in the
country today.
