Outside World
Integration Topic
The impasse between President Eisenhower and Gov. Orval Faubus
of Arkansas over integration and use of federal troops to enforce it
as to be the foremost topic at the President's news conference.
The federal-state dispute developed after Faubus used Arkansas
National Guardsmen to keep Negro students out ( of Central High
School. Eisenhower then employed federal paratroopers to get the
tudents in after removing the Guardsmen from the governor's
eommand.
Faubus, blamed by his critics for the racial outbreaks around
h world and for actions which led to stationing of federal soldiers
t the school, received an ovation from a crowd of 8,000 at the
Arkansas Livestock Exposition.
Authors Artists Too
Some of the world's top authors possessed a talent for art that
has been overshadowed by their pencils.
Victor Hugo's literary reputation obscured the 450 or more paintings
nd drawings he left. Hugo considered his shadowy landscapes and
tea scenes as important as his writings.
Tolstoy began the research for his novel "War and Peace" by sketch
big the battlefield of Borodino. Later he did 17 illustrations of Jules
Verne'i "Around the World in 80 Days" to amuse his children.
Edgar Allan Poe drew a haunting portrait of his fiancee Elmira
Royaler, whoa marriage to another inspired his poem "Lenore."
Prince III
Buckingham palace sources said Prince Charles, 8-year-old heir
to the British throne, has caught influenza at his boarding school.
An epidemic of Asian flu has cut school attendance by half in
torn parts of north and central England and the disease is spreading
to the south.
Court officials said the young prince and four other bovs had
become ill at Cheam School. It was not immediately known what type
WluenM the boys were suffering from.
Dulles Meeting
Secretary of State Dulles and Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei
Gromyko will meet here Saturday to discuss international problems.
The state department in announcing this said Dulles suggested the

to both tb United States and USSR."
Tbt conference will be at the Dulles home.

THE BIG RACE IS ON
Campus Cross-Section:
Students Dhcms Cornhusker Spirit
Ed Note: The following article
has been reprinted in the Daily
Nebraskan because of its parti
cular application to a carrent
University issue. The story was
written by Bob Munger, a mem
ber of the Lincoln Journal staff.
"What's wrong with the spirit in
Nebraska?" That is a question
that brings a new answer from
each person interviewed.
And each is quick to admit that
his answer is not the complete
story, just a part of the story.
"It's a pride in our state that
we lack," one student said. "Not
a lack of interest in our football
team. We just aren't proud of Ne
braska. We've got to be proud of
our state before we can be proud
of our football team."
About four out of five inter
viewed were unwilling to have
their names printed, but all were
willing to give an opinion.
Fatalism Found
A curious fatalism was found.
People were fatalistic about crops
and floods, knowing that trouble
could come but working to prevent
it, but not willing to work to pre-
it, but not willing to work
to prevent trouble coming to the
Cornhusker football team. Or some
were fatalistic about the Huskers,
saying "if they get in difficulties
we can work our way out" but
yet not aggressive enough to do
this work.
NU professor A -expounded on
the theme of spirit and lack of
spirit in the state.
His views expressed pretty well
the feelings of many that a losing
football team was just a by-product
of a conservative, often pessimis
tic state.
It was noteworthy that there was
no criticism of the coaching or of
the administration at Nebraska. A
majority said they felt the football
team was the victim, not the cause,
or poor state-wide spirit.
"It's a case of state-wide, deep
seated pessimism," said professor
B. "When all goes wrong with our
lives we work to pull out of it,
but when our NU football team
falls on dreary days we lack the
pride in them to weather the
storm."
Ignorance Maybe?
Senior student A, a resident of
Lincoln, and a non-sorority mem
ber, brought up another point:
"As a people we Nebraskans
don't really know our state," she
said, "and I'm as bad as anyone.
I was at an out-of-state meeting
of students this summer, and we

; were asked to tell about our home
state. Before I knew it I found
myself telling bad things about Ne
i braska."
Other students admitted that al
I though in their third or fourth year
at the University they had never
seen an NU football game, nor had
! attended a rally or pep meeting. '
i "Why go? student B asked. "If
you do you are so closely restricted
i that it feels as if you're at a Hitler
Youth meeting. You aren't allowed
to ring bells, shout or show any
real feeling. Why would you be
lieve it the police won't even allow
us to serenade a sorority. How can
you take pride in a school when
I they won't allow you to do these
things?"
Senior C said that he had asked
athletes from his home town to
; come to the University of Nebras
! ka only to be stopped with the
question Why?"
I Sophomore D and senior E said
j that a lot of their friends went
j out of Nebraska to go to college,
i Could Have Stayed
"Maybe they would have gone
j here," they agreed, "if there had
been more state pride in the Uni
i versity"
j Professor C said that we expect
j too much from the football team,
i "Nebraskans expect to have a sec
i ond class University, cutting the
j budget and in general accepting
the second best in everything un
til it comes to the football team.
They expect it to be big league
all the way. It's a curious and
j twisted bit of thinking."
; A Lincoln Cab driver faid that
as far as he was concerned keep
ing a coach for more than a year
or two would be a step in the right
I direction. "A look at the major
; league baseball teams," he said
j "will show you that the consistent
i winners are managers who have
I a long tenure of duty. A coach
' must be given a good chance be
! fore we run him out."
Senior NU student F said that
she thought a pride in the state
I was the most important and im
i mediate need of most Nebraskans.
; "We must be proud of Nebraska
1 and proud of our football team,"
j she said. "If we have the first two
i we will have the third."

i Almost everyone queried agreed
that a winning season or two would
wonders toward restoring school
spirit.
"But wouldn't that be a spirit
that would die out rapidly if w
lost a few games a cheap spirit,
so to speak?" NU senior G asked.
Others agreed that a really good
school spirit would have to comt
from education and pride in the
state, and that the best place to
begin this training was in t h
home.
