If the citizens of Nebraska think they're a chosen few, they're very wrong. There have been millions and billions before them. Even as far back as 8,000 to 10,000 years ago, there were Nebraskans. E. Mott Davis, University Museum anthropologist, gives the proof. Although these people probably didn't know there were such things as Nebraskans. Davis has discovered actual evi dence to indicate they existed in this territory. A campsite occupied by humans intermittently during a period of 8,000 years ago was uncovered near Medicine Creek in Frontier county. Davis also reported find ing the campsites buried at eight different levels in an embankment bordering the reservoir created by the dam on this creek. The topmost campsite, he said, is 13 feet above the lowest one. Most likely the site was attrac tive to tribes who lived in the area because it offered wind pro tection and was apparently in a good region for bison hunting. Large deposits of jasper, a flint like stone, provided them the raw materials to make arrow or spear points, knives and scrapers. The litter found in one of the campsites, according to Davis, is of rarticular scientific in terest. This debris partially con sits of spear or dart points which are similar to those found in Texas, Colorado and else where in Nebraska. These points provide scientists with another bit of evidence in tracing the migrations and liv ing habits of these ancient Ne braska tribesmen. The campsites, said Dr. C. B. Schultz, Museum director, con tained fossilized remains of many animals which provided food for the tribesmen. Dr. Schultz has been in general charge of the Medicine Creek project for the past several years. The animals to which Schultz referred were badgers and weas els, much like those found in Ne braska today. Other animal types, now extinct, included prairie dogs larger than those of today, prong ed antelope large than present types and bison with longer horns and larger skulls than the type first seen by white men in the Great Plains. Aside from Davis, the Medi cine Creek field part included Sidney A. Ash, Torben Nielsen, George M. Rabe, Robert G. Schipf, Neal E. Wilson, John Larger, Bruce R. Minteer, Nor man G. Schwenk, Philip Seff, David W. Stubbs and David B. Williams. During the summer, the Mu seum also had another field party stationed at Fort Robin son, Neb. It was headed by Lloyd G. Tanner, a Museum staff member. The party included Dr. Robert ,S. Junge of Julesburg, Colo., and 'the following students: Jerry Folsom, Cyril H. Harvey and Allen D. Smidt. This group investigated deposits of prehistoric animals at Wildcat' Ridge in western Nebraska. Thej sites 'were near Hebron, Nemaha and Pawnee City.

I did not like the boat from France to New York either, because of the sickness," said Khodoyai. He said "The best part of the whole trip was the good train from New York to Lincoln. I like this best because it gave me the chance to view the landscapes of this country. It is a beautiful country."

Khodoyai will speak at the first meeting of NUCWA Thursday at 7 p. m. "I am very happy to be asked to speak to the students of the University," he said. "I will try to explain about the people of the Middle East at the NUCWA meeting." "You people are very generous but you do not know what the people of the Middle East and Far East think, or how they think. "I want to tell you about the American policy in my country and what is wrong with her pol icy. I will also explain the British and Iranian policy." Khodoyai feels very strongly about the British policy in the East. He believes that that policy will paralyze the economy of Iran and for that reason has been fight ing it as much as he can. Two years ago Khodoyai talked to Dr. Shayegan, prime minister of Iran. In this confer ence he proposed the national ization of the Iranian oil fields. This was the first time a pro posal of this type had been made and Dr. Shayegan received it very enthusiastically. Because of Khodoyai's proposal and work that Dr. Shayegan, now highest member of the Iran Oil commission, did, great progress is being made by Iran in the current oil dispute. Before arriving in this country Khodoyai spoke French, Iranian and Persian fluently. He has been studying English for eight months and understands it very well. Monday, Prof. S. J. House asked Khodoyai to talk during his poli tical science class. Khodoyai ap preciated the hour granted to him at that time and gave a brief sum mary of the state of affairs in Iran. He is anticipating speaking more fully at the NUCWA meet ing tonight. He was asked to tell the thing he disliked most about the United States. "I can think of nothing I dis like. It is a good place to be." Iranian To Speak At NUCWA Meet " A mass NUCWA meeting will be held at 7 p.m. Thursday, in parlors X and Y of the Union.
