This statement by tho general,

He stated the four points of his

JWeecf for Draft,- College Test'
lans Outlined by Gustawson
It is the duty of every citizen
to make his maximum contribu
tion to the welfare of the United
States, Chancellor R. C. Gustav
son said Thursday.
Addressing a convocation of
University men in the Coliseum,
Chancellor Gustavson said that in
"ordinary times," citizens are
able to make their contributions
in a field of their own choice.
"These are not ordinary times,"
Chancellor Gustavson said. "We
are now in a period of national
emergency darkened by the
clouds of war. Under this cir
cumstance, citizens, and more
particularly 'those of us who are
students in the University, do not
have the opportunity to always
select the contribution to the na- during the World war II, alloca-
tional welfare which we wish to
make.
Contributions To Government
"This is as it should be, and is
the essence of democracy. As a
consequence, your government is
setting up methods whereby some
of you will be able to make im
mediate contribution in the work
of your choice."
The Chancellor urged Univer
sity men to apply at their local
draft boards for the right to take
qualification tests. This, he said,
is simply assisting our govern
ment through local draft boards,
to help determine how our man
power problems should be solved
in the current emergency.
The Chancellor pointed out that

tion of manpower resulted in
some post-war dislocations, in
cluding shortages of such essen
tial persons as doctors, dentists,
physicists, and chemists a short
age from which we are just now
recovering.
Victory Through Know-How
"We cannot hope to match the
enemy man for man on the field
of battle. Our victory will come
through our technological know
how," Chancellor Gustavson said.
"This is why it is essential that
young men should be trained now
for the big job ahead."
"Please remember," the Chan
cellor said, "that it is your gov
ernment's wishes, and your draft
board's wishes, to make the wis
est use of our manpower not only
for today, but for tomorrow and
the next day. It is my hope that
you will be good citizens and
co-operate fully in this endeavor,"
he said.
Chancellor Gustavson outlined
the following steps involved in
taking the Selective Service test
for University men.

he could think better with his

Another unforgettable was a
Moslem student who was a mis

aim in life was to spread the
Mohammedan religion.
He attended the University of
Nebraska so that he would be
able to learn more about our cus
toms and therefore become a
more effective missionary. This
was one case where the United
States was on the receiving rath

sionary work.
Shumate will also never forget
two of the beet students who sat
together in classes and later died
together during World war II.
That is, they were both killed
during the same engagement
overseas.

Another student who is hard to
forget is one who was caught
cheating on an exam. The odd
part about it was that he showed

contrary, he said that certainly
he was cheating, but what of it?
The student declared that he was

The amendment also guaran

Ag Exec board decided to place
the amendment before the stu

meeting. Their action followed
several weeks of debate that saw
many portions of the amendment
altered and others left in the best
form possible.
Rob Raun, president of Student

HAiLbLCVEV MXAT From the expressed satisfaction shown on
the faces of these students who attended last year's Farmers' Fair

Formerly an all Ag college
affair the Barbecue this year
will be held in conjunction with
College Days. All city campus
students are invited and may
purchase tickets at the Union

bouses.
Ticket sales are under the di
rection of a sub-committee com
posed of Jo Meyer and Wayne

their tickets from a booth in the
College activities building or from
Farmer's Fair board members

tory; according to Clayton Yeut
ter. He said that well over 1,000
tickets are being distributed.
. Last year, 700 plates were
served while many were turned
away the week after ticket sales
were halted. Consequently, be
said, it is advised that anyone
wishing to attend and take a
part in this portion of College
Days should purchase their tick
ets immediately.
In former years, pits were dug
west of the College activities
building and fires were burning
at the close of the Cotton and
Denim dance. The barbecueing

rection of W. J. Loeffel, chair
man of the animal husbandry department.
