The loss of Dr. Gus will be felt for a good many
years.
He is probably the most misunderstood man on
the campus and his true importance will only be
realized after he has left. His absence will leave out of proportion to their importance. Because

anti-sport. Nothing could be farther from the
truth.
The Chancellor (and The Daily Nebraskan)
feels that college students can get the benefits
of inter-school competition without making this
competition dominate college life.
The Chancellor starts with the assumption that

have been built under Dr. Gustavson's direction.
Right now, shabby, old houses are being cleared

unfair assumption.
Dr. Gus has also been misunderstood con
cerning his feelings toward fraternities and soror

will tell you that the Chancellor hates Greeks.
However, most of these students find them

Let's look at these two examples of hatred. It
certainly doesn't take a superior intellect to see
that the broken-down houses which surround the

housing space must be built; there is just no way
for a progressive university to avoid it. It is

Some Greeks have claimed that there is a

If there is, and I am not sure that crack-down is

NU Ivy Day
Observed
Since 1903'
By KAY NOSKY
Staff Writer
Tradition will reign Saturday
from the time the Ivy Day Queen
is presented to the tapping of the
last Innocent.
Students have gathered together
for the fateful Day every year
since 1901, except during war
years.
The long-awaited Ivy Day will
start about 9 a.m. with the pre
sentation of the queen and her
court. The queen and her maid
of honor were chosen earlier in
the year by senior women.
Mortar Board members selected
approximately 15 attendants from
candidates submitted by organ
ized houses.
Members of the Ivy Chain
complete the group of women
students honored in the court
presentation.
With the queen and her court
presiding, Ivy Day will move" into
the Ivy day sing, with organized
houses coRtpeting for first place.
The men's contest is sponsored
by Kosmet Klub and the women's
by the Associated Women's Stu
dents. The winners are presented
with a 16-inch traveling cup and
a plaque.
Throughout Ivy Day, Mortar
Boards dressed in the traditional
black and Innocents in red stalk
through the crowds preparing for
the masking of Mortar Boards
and tapping of Innocents.
Prior to Ivy Day, The Daily

workers have been invited, are
directed by Nancy Hemphill and
