Schmidt Addresses
Land-Grant Meeting
Dr. Edward Schmidt, chairman
of the department of economics,
spoke before the annual conven
tion of the American Land-Grant
Colleges on Tuesday evening.
He said that "there is reason
to hope that careful use of avail
able teaching talent can at least
forestall a deterioration in the
quality of instruction despite the
teacher shortage and enrollment
increases."
Dr. Schmidt based this on the
results of a recent experiment in
volving 700 Nebraska students.
The experiment employed the
principle of specialization and di-

Bombing Case
There are no further develop
ments In the investigation of
the bombing of the Sigma Alpha
EpsUon house, Frank Haltgren,
associate dean of student affairs,
reported Tuesday.
The bomb was set off in a
basement window of the Sigma
Alpha Epsilon house early last
Friday morning, according to
University officials.
The University police are cur
rently investigating the mys
tery bombing.
vision of labor among the instruc
tional staff in a lecture class of
200 students. A team of teachers
and graduate students was used,
each responsible for a particular
area lectures, written work, and
student conferences, according to
Dr. Schmidt.
This system was compared with
the traditional small lecture-discussion
class of 35 students, with
one teacher responsible for all
areas.
Dr. Schmidt gave these results:
1. Students in the experimental
section earned higher average
and median examination scores
than those in the traditional sec
tion. The difference was three
percentage points during the first
semester and seven during the
second.
2. A greater percentage of stu
dents in the experimental sec
tion than in the traditional sec
tion felt that their instructor had
a genuine interest in students.
3. The percentage of students
who felt that their instructor had
made the course interesting was
much greater in the experimen
tal section.
4. More students were able to
take the course under a fully
trained and experienced teacher.
5. Private conferences con
cerning course work were able
to be arranged more easily by
the students.
Dr. Schmidt added that "there
were gains also for those mem
bers of the instructional staff who
participated in the program."
Each participant was able to con
serve time and energy and be
come more proficient at their own
task.
The graduate assistant also
"gained valuable experience in
identifying the topics which most
perplex the students'" while at
the same time gaining "skill 'in
clarifying the concepts and rela-
tionships involved,"
Dr. Schmidt
I said.

Demands
For Profs
Increase
The demand for school teachers
is stronger than ever but much of
the increase is coming from out
side Nebraska, the University
Teacher Placement Service re
ported. Tnt. fw wihra.Va cMivds
for teachers have increased about
13 per cent during the past three
years but requests from all sources
are up 60 per cent, according to
Dr. W. C. Meierhenry, director of
the service.
The Service placed 421 teachers
and school administrators in all
but one of Nebraska's 93 counties
during the 1956-57 school year, or
23 more than last year .and 45
more than two years ago.
The placements in Nebraska this
year fell short by 59 of equaling
the number of new applicants, Dr.
Meierhenry pointed out. He added,
however, that Nebraska schools
are by no means the only ones
drawing upon the new supply of
teachers the state produces. This
year 201 of the teachers registered
with the Service accepted positions
outside the state.
"When you look at the whole
picture," Dr. Meierhenry said,
"the total shortage is not being
relieved. This year the requests
for teachers from all sources out
numbered the supply of applicants
by 14 to one. Last year it was 10
to one and the previous year eight
to one."
Requests for teachers came to
the Service from 43 of the 48
states and from 26 foreign nations.
Placements were made in 34 states
and three foreign countries. Cali
fornia took 50 teachers from the
Service; Iowa, 28; and Colorado,
23.
Dr. Meierhenry said there has
been little change in subject areas
manifesting shortages. The de
mand for English teachers leads
the list, followed by physical edu-
cation, mathematics
music, and
science.

Opinions Of feted
On Budget Motion
By GEORGE MOVER
Copy Editor
The Student Council will vote on
a motion today recommending thatlFol!ies goes to a scholarshiP fu"d
"no funds derived frnm the stnrfpnt ! The things organizations do to
body shall be used for the social
benefit of the organizations mem
bers." The Daily Nebraskan Tuesday
interviewed the presidents of five
campus organizations which might
be affected by the motion's pas
sage. Following are the comments
they made on it.
Morgan Holmes, president of
Kosmet Klub: "I don't like it. Kos
met Klnh works hnrrt In mato the
money they get and I don't see
why they can't spend it for thines
like that (social benefits). That's
part of the organization's func
tion too.
Gordy Warner, president of Corn
Cobs "This is how I felt per
sonally and so did most of the
fellows in our meeting today. We
realize the administration should
draw the line somewhere.
"However, we work hard for the
money we make. Not all of it
comes from University students.
Organizations should be allowed at
least one social function because
it more or less helps to keep up
the interest of persons in the or
ganization. "When they (students) buy a
ticket they feel they are getting
their money's worth. If the show is
back-
"I don't think most organizations
try to make a big profit. They
may keep a little reserve so if
they ever did lose they'd have
something to fall back on."
Jan Shrader, president of Tas
sals: "I think the motion is all
well and good as far as spending
money on themselves goes. Last
year we had . a banquet with the
Corn Cobs. Personally, I didn't
think it was right. I don't think
we'll have it again this year-be-
cause we just
per-'aDOUt it-'
didn't feel right
