coordinate the work done by stu
dent activity committees until the
end of the present school term.
As member of the Union
board of managers during the
past two years, she has ac
quainted herself with the acti
vities program. She also estab
lished and served as chairman
of the Union house and office
committee. Last spring Miss
Moomey was the student dele
gate representing the Univer
sity at the national conference
of the Association of College
Unions.

Miss Moomey will be the
third . Union activities director.
Her predecessor, Mrs. Grimm,
served this office since Sent.
1949.
"Genene has done a good Job
and we regret losing her very
much." Lake said. "During her
time a firm foundation of expan
sion of activities was laid. She
helped broaden the scope of the
resDonsibilitv. such as fine arts
nroerams. as well as setting up
the machinery for the long range
activity program."

Recognizing the fact that
spring is just

weatherm a n
predicts a
slight let-up
in the cold
spell. Skies

will probably
warm up a
few degrees.
The mild Mild

high thermometer reading will

A couple of fraternity men were
trying to do some wiring. One of
them was nuzzled and called to a
pledge, "Pa your hand on one of
those wires." The pledge aid as
he was told "Do you feel any
thing?" "No."
"Good.1' said the active. "I was
not sure which was which. Don't
touch the other one or you'll drop
dsad."
Tho recommendation was killed
by the expected faculty-student
split in committee.
In an effort to ease the cur
rent parking controversy, how
ever, the committee reduced the
segregated-parklng hours to
permit "firetcome-first-serve"
parking after 1 p.m., effective
Monday. Under the present rul
ing, segregated lots are opened
to students at 1:30 p.m.
The committee also voted to
combine faculty parking lots C,
D and E and thus enable C, D
and 2 faculty drivers to park in
any of the three areas.
According to Dean Carl W
Borgman. chairman of the com
mittee, a greater number of auto
mobiles can be assigned to one
large parking lot than to several
smaller lets with an equal number
of stalls.
The combining of parking lots is
also effective Monday, following
announcement in the faculty bul
letin.
The committee expressed its
hope that, through the combined
area! faculty cars assigned to
lot F can eventually be parked
in lots C. D and E. Lot F
would then be left open-entirely
for student parking.
A reporl from the faculty liai
son committee recommended re
serving three large parking areas
for faculty automobiles, instead
of the large number of small lots.
According to the report, presented
by Harold Wise, parking commit
tee and liaison committee member
the faculty areas would not be
centrally located.
The report also recommended
that perhaps the distance from a
student's residence to the Univer
sity necessary to obtain parking
permits could be extended from
the present eight blocks to ten,
twelve or more. By decreasing
permit-eligible students, the ratio
of student cars to parking stalls
could be reduced to the ratio of
faculty cars to parking stalls.
At the present, the student ratio
is 2.75 cars to a space, while the
faculty ratk is 1.75 cars.
Looking toward po s s i b 1 e
parking streamlining for next
year, Dean Borgmann appointed
Student Council President
George Cobel to draw up a set
of regulations for decreasing
faculty parking areas by grant
ing student permits to labor and
clerical workers now possessing
faculty stickers. Borgmann esti
mated that perhaps the faculty
areas could be cut in half by
such a move.
The committee informally up
held rustication as punishment for
an excess of parking tickets. It
thus refused to consider establish
ing a system of fines as substitute
lor rustication.

Universtiy Coeds Participate In Events
Of Nebraska Republican founders Day
iour university coeds are
taking an active part in state
politics. As hostesses at a recep
tion Monday for ex-Gov.
Dwight Griswold, now running,
for United States Senate, the
four women assisted Mrs. Gris
wold at the Nebraska Republi
can Founders' Day meeting.
Damaris v Riddell, junior in
Teachers college, said we should
take an interest in whom we
elect because "elections now
will affect us more than they
will our parents."
"I am a young Republican,"
declared Dorothy Elliott, Teach
ers college junior, "and if I
were 21 I would vote for Gris
wold." Miss Elliott called Gris
wold a "good guy," and added
good citizenship "is our duty
something we should start now
instead of after college."
Elizabeth Gass, junior Ag col
lege student, said young people
should be interested in their
leaders and in good leaders. "All
of us should show more, inter
est in politics," she said,'"and
Griswold is the kind of man our
country needs."
Sandra Riddell, senior in
Teachers college, believes it, is
"about time Republicans came
back into power. If they are
to do so," she added, "everyone
must take an active interest in
our future leaders."
Griswold, a Regent of the
University, said, "As long as
students take an interest in poli
tics, this America of ours is
safe."
John Riddell, York attorney,
commented that Founders Day
has always placed an "accent on
youth" by the election of young
Republicans as junior president
and junior vice president of the
organization. Riddell added that
University students attend "in
large numbers and get some of
their first political lessons from
the sessions."
The first Republican Founders
Day was held March, 1935, and
was patterned after Kansas
Day, Riddell said.
Senator Everett Dirksen of
Illinois was main speaker at the
banquet.

Quartet at the suggestion of Ed
win Fadiman, who remains the
quartet's commercial representa
tive.
Fadiman's ensemble started its
American career with a radio ap
pearance, followed by a series of
other network performances which
culminated in its concert tour.
The quartet's varied repertoire
is composed of compositions played
in unison, some with two present
ing the melody and two the ob
ligato, some"" with a three-to-one
combination and others with each
member presenting a ' different
part.
The repertoire which includes
some original compositions by
members ot the group, also fea
tures a number of American
written directly for the Quartet.
Four-piano music was originated
in a little-known work by Bach-
the "Vivaldi Concerto" originally
written for four violins and then
arranged by Bach for four pianos,
and a Stravinsky arrangement for
four pianos, "Les Noces."
The concert, according to the
Union committee, will feature a
Coliseum seating arrangement de
signed to assure maximum acous

UMT Bill Shelved
The bill providing for uni
versal military training was
sent back to committee by
house of representatives vote
of 236 tc 162 Tuesday night.
This virtually wipe out any
chance of UMT passing con
gress this year. The bill was
recommitted to committee after
six hours of heavy debate.
UMT would have made 18
and one-half-year-old males
liable for six months military
training and seven and one
half years of reserve service
subject to recall..
The house action on UMT is
expected to sidetrack a similiar
bill under consideration in the
senate.
Wilson Urges Control Extension
WASHINGTON Charles E.
Wilson, chief mobilizer, has
urged Congress to extend price
and wage controls for two ad
ditional years. The act which
gives the government the
power to regulate such controls
is due to expire on midnight
of June 30. Wilson told the
Senate Banking Committee
that inflation could not be held
down unless prices were con
trolled. He also said that prices
could not be controlled unless
wages were held in line. Mobi
lizer Wilson warned, "At least
two more years of hard work
are ahead of us before we
reach our present goals of mil
itary strength and productive
power."
