Staff Writer
Robert Schlater, 1942-1943 ed
itor of The Daily Nebraskan,
former Time magazine staff
member who also worked on the
Providence Journal in Rhode
Island, has returned for his third
stay on the University campus.
Schlater was graduated from
the University in 1943 with a
double mnjor in history and
English. While in school, he was
active in Kosmet ruuD, inno
cents Society and Alpha Tau
Omega in addition to newspa
per activities in which he "ran
the gamut" beginning as a re
porter. AFTER GRADUATION, he
served in Europe with the Army
until 1946 when he returned to
the University for a year as an
instructor of English.
Schlater then attended Colum
bia University in New York City
where he obtained his M. S. de
gree in journalism. At Colum
bia, h i s assignments included
frequent press conferences, He
once attended a press interview
which was held with Joe Louis.
Recently returned from Ko
rean duty, Schlater is now an
instructor in the School of Jour
nalism. He has traveled widely
in the United States and Europe,
and also has been Jn Tokyo,
Seoul and Honolulu.
Schlater commented on, news
paper production and circulation
in Korea. He said that newspa
pers thrre are published and
then pasted on fences for readers
to scan, rather than having reg
ular newspaper circulation a s
we know it in this country.
He said that "being back on
campus is very interesting." He
was somewhat surprised at the
increased number of cars on
campus and also by the physical
changes that have taken place
since he left.
Coffee Hour
Coffee hour for faculty mem
bers and graduate assistants will
be held Friday from 4 to 6 p.m.
in the Union Faculty Lounge.
There will be a fifty cent
charge for refreshments.
HOW MORAL CAN A VICTORY GET?
Professor Alden Completes
Volume In History Series
Dr. John Alden, professor of
history, has recently completed
"The American Revolution," part
of a 43 volume series to be pub
lished by Harper and Brothers.
"The New American Nation"
series is a chronological history
of the United States from the
early 1500 exploratory period to
the Truman and Eisenhower
states of today. These books are
edited by Dr. Henry Commager
and Dr. Richard Morris, profes
sors of history at Columbia Uni
versity. DR. ALDEN was chosen as an
authority on the Revolutionary
period by the editors, for he has
also written 'Southern Colonial
Frontier," "General Gage in
America" and "General Charles
Lee." He edited "The War of the
Revolution" in 1951 following the
death of the author.
Dr. John Hicks, formerly of the
University and now a professor
of history at the University of
California, is doing one of the
volumes concerning the United
States in the '20s.
GEORGE HOWARD, formerly
professor of sociology at the Uni
versity, wrote one of the volumes
in the previous "American Na
tion" series. This series has since
become in part outdated and is
being replaced by the new series

or... don't put all your

Once there was a Basketball Team that
had Plenty of Nothing, lt was so poor
that even the Coach hadn't gone to a
game all season. Couldn't stand to
watch his Scoreless Wonders. So the
Futile Five careened through the sched
ule and hit the road for the Big Game.
Due' to lose by 45 points, the Experts
said.
Rut somebody back on campus had
a Brainstorm. He whipped out his
Trusty Telegrammar (the Telegrammar
being a pocket-sized guide to telegraph
use. If you'd like one, incidentally,
for gratis, just write to Room 1727,
Western Union at 60 Hudson Street,
New York City.)
Spotting a likely idea he started the
wheels moving! So, just before game
time, the team got more TelegTams than
you could shake a Referee at Group
telegrams from fraternities and sorori
ties, personal telegrams from Prexy
and the Dean of Women, hundreds of
telegrams from students ... all saying
"We're behind you, team!" The reac
tion? Tremendous. The boys pulled
themselves together, went out and lost
by only 23 points instead of 45.
The moral is Obvious. The more you
encourage a guy, the better he'll do . . .
and Giving a Hand by telegram works
wonders. In fact, whether it's Money
from Home you want, or a Date, or just
to send a Soulful Message to Someona
Special, just call Western Union or
whip down to your local Western Un
ion office.
