Page 4 Howard Vann Every student who attended In side Advertising Week in New York City gained invaluable insight into the advertising industry, Howard Vann, University delegate, said. Delegates saw the offices of Ruth rauff and Ryan, a leading agency advertising. "By seeing such things, we could see all the principals we had learned in class working in practi cal application," Vann, Arts and Sciences senior, said. The program included talks from the top people in the advertising industry, according to Vann. Stu dents had interviews to line up jobs with some of the top adver tising production and publicity hous es in New York. Interviews Vann tentatively accepted a job with McGraw-Hill Publishing Co., publishers of "Business Week." His work will be connected with the advertising lay-outs done for the magazine. At the end of the week delegates were presented with certificates which entitle them to interviews with any advertising firm in New York City, he said. New York advertising is concen trated on television work right now, Vann said. The group toured the studios of the National Broadcast ing Co. television department and appeared on the Steve Allen Show. "We were told that George Goe bel's show is the only paying half hour show in television," Vann said. The trend is toward one and a half hour television shows, he said. TV Trends Some TV shows, such as "Dear Phoebe," are on their way out Dairy Club Dinner Set For May 8 The annual Dairy Club banquet will be May 18 at 6:30 p.m. in the Union. J.

"We didn't work and go to meet ings all the time; we saw Ertha Kitt at the Copacabana, Sophie Tucker and Times Square," he said. Vann saw John Boomer, Nebras ka's delegate to Inside Advertising Week last year. "I owe a great deal to Boomer for the contacts he helped me make," Vann said. The group ate at several adver tising clubs as guests of such firms as the Wall Street Journal. At one club women were not allowed in the upstairs dining rooms and the woman delegates were forced to eat in the downstairs area, apart from the rest of the group, he said. Vann termed Dr. Kenneth Mc Farland, educational counsel for Union Display Ojl Paintings Show Variety Off Moods By ROGER WAIT Staff Writer Currently on display in the Un ion Main Lounge are 19 paintings by three University art students. The oil paintings will be on ex hibit until mid-June. Jean Sandstedt, president of Delta Phi Delta, honorary art fra ternity, painted six of the paint ings in the lounge. Corban LePell, junior in Arts and Sciences, also has six paintings on display. Seven paintings were done by Bruce Con ner, junior- in art. The somber paintings of Miss Sandstedt, senior in art, are charac terized by the darker shades punc tuated, sometimes starkly, with splotches of red. The red, which she worked into the pattern of the paintings, in no case conveys care free feelings. They represent bright spots in an otherwise drearily mon otonous life. Nature Miss Sandstedt's works are intro spective in nature. Her paintings, she said, are "non-objective." The titles of her displayed paint ings are "Woman With Flowe ers," "Untitled Painting," "Stellu lar," "The Captive," "Flowers" and "O Roschen Rot!" 1 "Stellular" won a purple ribbon at the 1954 State Fair. Miss Sand stedt last year won first place in Kappa Alpha Mu Initiates Officers Kappa Alpha Mu photography journalism honorary for men and women announced the new officers for next year. They are: President, Dale Baker; Vice President, Ward Svo boda; Secretary, Marcie Mickel son; and Treasurer, LeRoy Mar quardt.

Newspaper advertising is locally the most influential and nationally the least influential, Vann said. The group toured the New York Times plant to see how newspaper ads keep up with other communication media. Vann is working on a 1000-word thesis which will be submitted to officials who sponsored the trip for the selection of the outstanding advertising student in the country. Vann has given several talks about his trip to classes and local groups. a national Delta Phi Delta show in Des Moines, la. Her prize-winner was a graphic woodcut. LePell 's works are entitled "Dan ae," f'Sosi," "Binnorie," "Mt. Ar arat,'.' "Nakomis, 1954" and "Scy thia." His paintings are done in dark colors, but are not so solemn and somber as Miss Sandstedt's. Ra ther, LePell's works are some what calm. Frequently, he runs his colors to gether to produce impressions of fogs of varying density. These are especially brought out in "Bin norie," in which he has used shrouded blues and greens inter mixed and subdued so as to be a dark grey. In general, LePell's works re mind one of the calm before the storm and of cynical peacefulness. This is illustrated by "Mt. Ar arat," in which LePell used gradu ated shades of red to describe simultaneously a bright future and the still bleak past which will for ever hinder man's efforts toward progress. PePell has won honorable men tion in an all-Nebraska showing at the University Art Galleries. The titles of Bruce Conner's paintings are "Nirvana," "Un titled Painting," "Grotto," "Abad don," "Moorland," "Halcyon" and "Romanesque." Of the three artist's works on exhibition, his are the lightest. Conner mixes his colors and is not so consistent in color usage as the other three. For example, his "Nirvana" was done entirely in glaring shades of yellow, and his "Moorland" was painted in shades of midnight brown, interspersed with reddish brown. "Moorland" also contains white and black adjacent to repre sent parched, stringy grasses. Geometric Figures In other paintings, Conner con veyed calmness by uncluttered use of simple geometric figures. "Hal cyon" represents the halcyon, or calm, days of an idyllic spring, and "Romanesque" illustrates the inner peace which overcomes one inside a medieval cathedral. Conner last year exhibited some of his works at a showing of the Lincoln Artists' Guild. The Guild later purchased one of his color etchings for its permanent collec tion.

'S OOOOOOOOOMOOOOOODOOOOOi be Casually 1j r I GOLFER Rogers To Help Construct Egypt Conference Camp By MARY SHELLEDY Staff Writer Instead of marching into the Coliseum in cap and gown on June 13, Jack Rogers will be half-way across the Atlantic on his way to Egypt. Rogers will leave June 1 for New York City. June 8 will find him aboard an Italian lines ship traveling to deal with construc tion problems in the desert rather than job-hunting in the Mid-West. Rogers is one of 11 young people chosen by the National Youth Fellowship of the United Presbyte rian Church to participate in a summer work project in Egypt. "Egypt is one of the mission fields of the United Presbyterian Church," Rogers explained. , "One of the problems of our Evangel ical Church there is that the young people have no summer conference grounds." Ministry "At the Youth Fellowship con vention last summer in Long Beach, the national group made its project the raising of $28,000 to build a conference camp in north ern Egypt." he said. "Some of us were chosen to go help do the ac tual construction." Because Rogers is going into the ministry of United Presbyterian church, he already has some sum mer work experience. Last summer he was part of a group that re rebuilt a church in southern Il linois. "It was an interesting experi ence, being .in completely new sur- as little as six cents a copy under the Builders subscription plan, he said. Balloons with subscription cards attached will be loosed on the campus. A fire truck will drive around the campus Thursday dis tributing cards and Builders mem bers will hand out cards at Farm ers Fair, Belmont added. Subscriptions can be renewed through this offer, and delivery can begin at any date the student desires, he said. Seniors are eligible to subscribe and may subscribe for as long as three years, even though they are no longer students, according to Belmont. Part of the money received in the campaign will go into a Build ers fund which will be used to con tinue activities to build a better University, Belmont said. Red Cross Safety Course To Begin An American Red Cross Water Safety Instructor Course will be held May 16 to 23 in the University pool, sponsored by the womens physical education department. Interested students may call the physical education office in Grant Memorial, Beverly Becker, instruc tor in physical education for wom en, said. To be eligible for the course, a student must have a Senior Life Saving certificate and be at least 18. A University swimming permit ' also necessary. ii TV. II 1 i Wednesday, May 11, 1955 roundings. We didn't know what each other's activities had been, and we were doing things entirely different from our every -day school activities." "Since the trip from New York to Le Havre takes 10 days, . . . I should be exactly in the middle of the Atlantic on Graduation day," Rogers said. Women In Group From Le Havre, the group will go to Paris, Geneva, Florence, Mi lan and Rome. The 11 Americans will spend two weeks on the Con tinent before flying from Rome to Cairo. Then Rogers and the others will go to their camp site in the desert near the Mediterranean. "Several young women will be in the group," Rogers explained, "which will be quite an experi ment in Egypt. There, women are just now pressing for suffrage and are still rather restricted." The coed group has been spe cifically instructed on just how cau tions their behaviour must be, "Neither we nor the girls can wear shorts to work in and packing for the trip is already a problem, since we must take as little as possible to travel by air." Manual Labor At the camp site, Rogers will be doing manual labor pouring concrete, doing carpentry and painting. He will be working with young people from Egypt and the Sudan. "To me, that's one of the most interesting parts of it work ing 'with people from all over." While in Egypt, Rogers hopes to obtain permission to go to Pales tine. The tense Arab-Israeli situ ation, in which University student Charles Harris was killed, makes travel from an Arab country to Is rael more than difficult. Rogers will be in Egypt until Aug. 1, when he will leave to sail from Southampton to New York Aug. 8. In September Rogers will enter a theological seminary in Pitts burg. U Because there is no ftre-theolog-ical program at the University, he has majored in speech, and phil osophy. - During his undergraduate ca reer, Rogers has been president of Student Council and a member of the debate team. color-coordinated PALM BEACH suits equal '4' cool summer ostits Bay 2 eolor-coor!raate4 Palm Beach (111180111 them, me'idh them have 4 smart, cool summer outfits.
