Kerr Speaks...
Kerr's enthusiasm and friendli
ness was evident in all that he:
said and did. He even turned
around several times during hist
speech to address the convocation
committee members seated behind
him. Frequently he toyed with hi3
glasses, but more ofterf he waved
his hands in accompanying his re
marks or simply spread
is ions
arms.
Other questions thrown at Kerr
concerned the "unconstitutional
war in Korea," universal military
training and racial segregation.
The senator met each one with
an answer and an explanation.
When his manager finally
succeeded in tearing Kerr away
from the rostrum, the senator
wag just about to explain his
stand on the Tidelands oil bill.
Eleven minutes did not allow i
him much time to get to a radio
broadcast, but he seemed much
more concerned with a ballroom
full of students many of whom
were not even old enough to vote,

nAt Rosses of the University
are hard at work in two sorority
houses, making flags for the Ne
braska University Council for
World Affairs Spring Conference.
Jan Schmidtmann, Kappa Kappa
Gamma, and Peggy Wood, Delta
Delta Delta, head committees of
seamstresses in their respective
houses. They are making United
Nations flags for display during
the conference, and for later use
by NUCWA.
The girls volunteered to help
NUCWA when it was discovered
that the real UN flag-, furnished
by Golds, had disappeared. They
soon discovered that the United
Nations is as helpful and in
structive in small matters, as it
tries to be with international
affairs.
They received instructions,
transfers for leaves which are part
of the center emblem, and the
center emblem itself. The girls
only had to buy material, blue and
white, use the kit sent to them,
brush up on their blanket stitches
for the leaves, and begin.
One of the flags is almost fin
ished, the other Just begun. Both
will be finished in time for the
conference which will begin when,
a mock international court of jus
tice convenes on April 2. For
further conference details, see
