Windbag of the United States weather bureau announced today a plan for com plete control of the weather through recent scientific devel opments. Dry ice seeding com- I bined with huge fans along the Canadian border could hold back the cool fall weather until, on a certain day, arbitrarily, Nov. 1, the fans could be reversed and winter would begin with the help of dry ice seeding and stra tegically placed deep freeze units. This plan has been based on a recent poll by Miss Mary Wanna of the University. This poll re vealed that 80 percent of the American public did, in no way, enjoy the coming of fall. Theoretically, removing fall from the list of seasons would lighten the load of many people. The time for fall housecleaning, raking, and storm windows would be thus eliminated. The leaves, being quick-frozen while on the trees would be kept fresh until the spring thaws when they would be as good as new. This would save trees the job of growing a new crop eech year. No Autumn Leaves Although the coloring of au tumn would be lost, the flowers of summer would remain until the zero hour. They, like every thing else would be encased in ice. The effect of going directly from summer into winter would not seem too great, according to the facts given. But in question ing Prof. Wanna, we discovered that the 20 per cent who were against the proposed plan were, essentially, the college students of the land. We therefore inter viewed several persons connected with the student body in an at tempt to ascertain the reasons for the opposition. Sally Fourthe pointed out that some hapless group might be having their weekly picnic when winter struck. Without the least warning all would be encased in ; ice for posterity at least until I the spring thaws. ; In talking to sportswriter Glug I McBridegroom yesterday, we j learned that the proposed change I in weather would bring about j a drastic change in football rules j and tactics. Since winter would ! come on the first day of Novem- i ber each year, it would split the j football season. This would force evolution of two very different j games. Terrific Heat During the summer half of the seaiion the heat would be too ' great for the wearing of stand ard pads and equipment. There- ; fore players would be outfitted j in suite similar to those used in . track. All backfield men and ends would carry collapsible j pogo-stioks as standard equip- ! ment in facilitating line play. To , compensate for this advantage, j the field would be lengthened to ; one quarter mile and would have ! shrubbery, sand traps and tar , pools to hamper backfield plays. In the winter half, the game I would be played on a frozen sur- j face of similar size. The ends , would use dog sleds. Linemen ; would be equipped with .22 cali ber pistols for dispensing the dog teams. Here McBridegroom Science News Need Outlined Bv Swindler Newspapers must keep the puolic informed about science. particularly in this atomic age, Dr. William F. Swindler, di rector of the School of Journal ism told newspaper and radio news editors Friday evening at the University's clinic on atomic energy. He said that it was vital that their readers and listeners un derstand the technical and pub lic policy questions which ha'e arisen with modern scientific developments. Dr. Swindler pointed out that few newspapers can afford to hire men with specialized re porting techniques needed for science writing. To help this sit uation, he suggested that papers in this area cooperate in syndi cated science features which can be carefully checked for accur acy. He also urged editlrs to rely more heavily on fccienee stories growing out of research in state institutions. Dr. Swindler said that news papers have alienated scientists in the past by sensationalism in their science reporting and that they still have to live this down. Editors, he continued, must also work to understand the scientific frame ot mind, which, he said, suspends judgment and avoids drawing quick conclusions. !

Shells or Iceboats Hugo Holm's opinion of the proposed system was not too favorable. According to him, the naval fraternity Rho Damya Rho would have to trade their racing shells for iceboats. Sororities and fraternities all over the land would lose the joy of bending their pledges to the tasks of raking leaves and put ting up storm windows. Penn State could have easily sabotaged the football team by sprinkling dry ice on the clouds a day before the game. The Nittany Lions would have had a great advantage in being pre pared for winterball, while the Huskers froze to death in their summerball suits. Hunters would die like flies because a hunting season would be impractical. As the scientific winter closed down simultane ously in all temperature areas, migratory waterfowl would freeze by the millions. The very thought of game birds dying in any manner but of gunpoint would bring about the death of hunters throughout the land. Clara Snyder To Address Home Ec Meet Mrs. Clara Gebahard Snyder is scheduled as the guest speaker for the annual Ellen H. Richards dinner to be held Thursday, Oct. 26, in the Union ballroom at 6:30 p.m. The tickets sell for $1.25. The dinner is to commemorate the founding of home economics at the University by Ellen H. Richards. Mrs. Snyder will speak on home economics and journalism based on her experiences in the field. She has been with the Wheat Flour institute in Chicago for the past 15 years. She has returned to Lincoln to be with her husband Dr. Lloyd B. Snyder, professor of rural economics at the Ag college. Mrs. Snyder attended the Uni versity of Wisconsin. She re ceived her masters degree from Iowa State and taught there. Marcia Adams is the chairman for the dinner. She will be assisted by Annette Carnahan.

PiS6USSS Some time last summer a car was cruising down a street in Berlin, past ruins and recon structed areas. The . passenger, an American professor, leaned forward and asked, "Say, where's the Russiaaq sector?" His German driver replied calmly, "You are in it." The professor continued his trip and saw quite a bit of Berlin without trouble from "the Ivans." He heard many stories, but had no unpleasant experiences him self. The man was Gaylon J. Say lor, professor of secondary edu cation, Teachers college. He spent the summer conducting an ex amination of the German edu cational system for state depart ment's high commissioner of the American ' zone. Studies Education Professor Saylor studied teach er education, which is in Ger many weighed down with cen turies of tradition.. "The minis tries of education have too much control," he reports. "Progressive attempts, initiative and imagina tion are stifled." German teachers are trained by four years of college, after which they must pass an examination in philosophy and their fields of study. For two years they prac tice teach and continue study in seminars under assaigned "men tors." Then comes another ex amination, and the teachers apply for teaching permits. These are issued by the ministry of educa tion of the respective state gov ernments, who also assign the teachers to schools. "There's a lack of broad un derstanding of educational prob lems," says Saylor. "There's too much control the ministry has to approve everything!" There was ample opportunity for tourist trips on weekends. Professor Saylor visited ten countries during the summer. Cli max of his European trip was the flight over the iron curtain to Berlin. While free to wander in the western zones of the city, Saylor also found that one could tour the Russ sector. He visited Tier garten, the Unter der Linden, a Russian cemetery, and the Bran denburger Tor. "The Russians keep in the background," he notes. Always seen, however, are the scowling German Communist People's po lice. "The United States is support ing the technical school and the "ur ) Campus Interviews on Cigarette Tests ( Uumbcr 4...

He visited Germany last summer, making an exami nation of the German educational system for the State depart ment's High Commissioner of the American zone. He found that the German system is weighted down with centuries of tradi tional teachings. The ministries of education have too much influence, Saylor found. Some of the larger cities arc making progressive strides in teaching methods, he said. 'free university' in the western zone," states Saylor. "But the old University of Berlin is run by the Russians." Professor Saylor also noted that the west Germans had re named an attractively boulevard "Clay Allee," honoring the Amer- 1 ican general. In reply, the east Germans had to name a "Stalin Strasse." "Stalin street" is a road between piles of rubble. Some hope for progress in Ger man education is seen in the larger cities, he said. Berlin and Bremen are attempting to make secondary education free in Ger man youth. The rule of the coun try has always been that educa tion was only for the well-uu-do, since tuitions had to be paid by high-school students, Saylor ob served. Saylor said that German women labor on the farms. The men, who are scarce, attempt to find work in villages, he continued. Loss of manpower in the war was very apparent, Saylor reported, and many American college stu dents on tours were seen. Eu ropeans were duly shocked by jeans-clad coeds, he added. "German universities should provide leadership in education and research," concludes Saylor. As to the occupation, he feels line - feathered" frienrl isn't Kdnn "i,t . .
