New Student Health
Luxury To Ease Aches, Pains
new
held
By Sandy Laaker
Staff Writer
Break an arm lately? Those
tests giving you pounding
headaches? Save your aches
and pains until next fall and
be cured in luxurious sur
roundings! The University has provid
ed a solution for tattered and
torn students the new Stu
dent Health Center.
Plans are being made to
begin moving equipment into
the modern three-floor struc
ture about the first of June,
according to E. W. Simpson
Jr., public health engineer.
Settled in Fall
"Well be all settled and
ready to admit patients next
fall," he said.
Although the new center is
much larger than the present
one, a ' student will have do
trouble finding his way around
once be has deciphered the
code in the multi-striped
floor.
This code is one of the most
unique features of the build
ing. If a student reports at tLe
nurses station that he has a
sore throat, he may be told
follow the yellow stripe to
the throat examining room.
Follow Stripe
And sure enough, if he fol
lows the specified stripe he
will end up in the proper place
and the doctor will be waiting
for him! Each examining
room will have a certain col
or which ends at its doorway.
While waiting for an ap
pointment, the student will
make himself comfortable in
a spacious waiting room, com
plete with lounging chairs,
magazines and a phone booth,
Besides tne waiting room,
nurses station and six exam
mini rooms, also located on
the first floor will be the busi
ness offices, a complete phar
macy, a laboratory, orthope
dic department, X-ray depart
ment, and suites for the di
rector of health, the public
health staff, the mental health
staff and the director of nurs
ing.
A two-way communications
system with all of the doctor's
offices will be set up at the
nurses station.
"There will be no major
surgery at first, Simpson
said, "but minor surgery will
be performed in the new sur
gical room.
The second floor will be the
hospital floor. There will be
16 colorful rooms with a max
imum of two to a room, or 32
patients in alL
50 Patients
"However, under epidemic
conditions we will be able to
handle 50 patients," Simpson
said. The present health cen
ter has a 21 bed capacity.
A patient will discover that
his room would put the Wal
dorf to shame!
Every room will have an in
dividual air-conditioning and
control system. There will
be 100 per cent fresh air rath
er than recirculated air.
Four of the rooms have pri
vate baths and the remaining
12 have half -baths with
shared showers. .
All new furniture has been
bought which will compliment
the pastel painted rooms
Each patient will have a bed,
over-bed table, lamp, chest
and one occasional chair. Ev
ery room will have one loung
ing chair and a mahogany
paneled closet.
Glamorous Basement
Even the basement is not
without its glamor.
An extensive physical ther
apy department with six treat
ment booths and a group tner
apy room will make the one
now in use look "like a clos
et," Simpson said.
From a bright, all -electric
kitchen a staff of dietitians
and cooks will send trays to
second floor in a dumb-waiter.
They will also serve out-patients
(diabetics and others
on special diets) cafeteria
style in a roomy dining area
Staff meetings will be held
in a mahogany paneled con
ference-library room. Books
will be available for consul
tation by the doctors and
nurses.
The student health staff is
expecting a big business boom
next falL They figure that
the center's many ultra-fancy
and modern features will
make it the number one spot
on campus.

Levinson, and the council vice
president in charge of elec
tions, Bill Spilker, know the
names of the four senior
judges.
They were selected from:
Biff Keyes, a member of the
Board of Publications and
president of the Nebraska
University Council on World
Affairs; Lyle Hansen, mem
ber of the Residence Associa
tion for Men; Donald Iburg,
member of Beta Gamma Sig
ma, honorary scholastic soci
ety in business adminis
tration; John Kinnier, presi
dent of Sigma Tau, national
Engineering Honorary, an In
nocent and vice president of
the Student Council: Phyl
Bonner, secretary of the
YWCA and member of the
AWS senior Board; and Frank
Wells, a graduate in Business
Administration now taking a
pre-med course in the Univer
sity. Miss Gourlay said the nom
inees which went before the
special committee Saturday
were either suggested to the
Council by the Faculty Com
mittee on Student Affairs in
accord with the Tribunal
Charter or applied themselves
for the position.
Avoid Politics
Miss Gourlay indicated that
one of tne reasons tne coun
cil did not want to release the
names of the appointments
was to avoid "politics." She
explained that perhaps pres
sures would be placed on the
council members to influence
the selection of the junior
members and the Law Col
lege representatives next
Wednesday.
Dean of Student Affairs
J. P. Colbert said that be had
not been informed of the
names of the senior judges.
He, however, denied rumors
that the council had to get
approval of the judges from
the Division of Student Af
fairs. "The committee on Student
Affairs met officially, made
suggestions of names of pos
sible candidates and fulfilled
its obligation outlined in t h e
Tribunal Charter. Now, the
council has the democratic re
sponsibility of electing the tri
bunal members," Colbert
stdtcd.
Colbert indicated that the
Division of Student Affairs
was holding fast to a "hands
off policy with regard to the
tribunaL "I want to do what
I can to achieve student self
government on the campus,"
he added.
The Dean said that the tri
bunal would be "a great thing
for the University."
Chancellor Hardin was giv
en the names of faculty nom
inees for the tribunal "a week
or ten days ago" according
to Colbert.
The tribunal charter calls
for appointment by the chan
cellor of two faculty judges
who will have terms of four
years. However, to facilitate
continuity on the triounai, tne
first faculty judge would
serve two years and the sec
ond would serve four at this
first appointment.
No faculty judge can serve
more than two terms. It wai
not indicated whether Aak
hus's position would be tha
two or four year one.
Press Removed
The press war removed
from the Council meeting
room Wednesday afternoon
when the selections were
made for senior judges. Miss
Gourlay said this is standard
procedure when elections are
held.
She added, however, that
the council perhaps Unas tt
hard to knew what to do with
respect to the Tribunal selec
tions since this is the first
year the selections have been
made.
The names of the nominesi
for junior and Law School po
sitions on the tribunal were
not released, either, but a re
liable source indicated that
only one Law College student,
Herb Freidman, a present
council member, applied.
