Ataturk's Doors
Open This Fall
By Barb Coonrad
After' four years of plan
ning by Nebraska and Turkish
educators, the Ataturk Uni
versity in Erzurum, Turkey,
will open its doors to fresh
men next fall.
Dr. Marvel Baker, assistant
dean of the University's Col
lege of Agriculture, made
this report when he returned
from a three-week progress
check in Turkey.
Dr. Baker said that accord
ing to the Turks, the idea for
the University dates back to
Ataturk, a native hero, who
was an officer in the Turkish
Army during World War I.
After the war, when Allied
troops occupied Turkey and
Greek troops invaded the
land, Ataturk resigned his po
sition in the army to lead a
national revolution.
Ataturk is credited with
establishing a modern Turkey
and recognizing the need of
educational institutions.
The University entered in
to an agreement with the
United States International
Co - operation Administration
to help develop Ataturk Uni
versity. The I.C.A. is
financing the University's
participation in this project.
Dr. Baker went to Turkey
in April of 1955 and served
two years as head of the Ne
braska mission there.
"Actual construction (on
university buildings) started
sometime this past spring,"
Dr. Baker said.
Although four buildings are
under construction in Erzur
um, the first class, composed
of freshmen majoring in ag
riculture, will use temporary
facilities, according to Dr.
Baker.
A faculty of agriculture and
one of Letters and Science,
composed of both Nebraskans
and Turks, will teach the ini
tial courses, he said. The
courses will be taught in the
Turkish language. Dr. Baker
said that some of the Zebras
ka professors will probably
teach through assistants
whom they are training.
Although only 100 freshmen
will enter Ataturk University
this fall, Dr. Baker said that
the plans were drawn for an
eventual enrollment of 3,000
students.

For Tennis Match
Entries close at 5 p.m. today
for a men's tennis match

department. Interested stu
dents and faculty members

Medals will go to the win
ner and runner-up in each of
two tournaments. One tourna
ment will be held for novices
and another for more ad
vanced players.
Play is scheduled to begin
Friday.
". . . Almost every educated
Turk feels that education is
the answer to all of their
problems," Dr. Baker said.
ACP Poll Asks Students
About Neiv Car Designs
Minneapolis (ACP) By
a slight margin, college stu
dents feel that the design of
1958 model cars is not as
pleasing as the designs pro
duced in 1957. Coeds feel more
strongly than men that this
year's cars are not as well
designed but men out-vote co
eds by a stronger, margin in
feeling the designs are more
pleasing. Equal proportions
of both men and women are
undecided on the issue.
This information on student
opinion was gathered by the
Associated Collegiate Press,
who asked the following ques
tion of a representative group
of men and women in Ameri
can colleges:
IN GENERAL, DO YOU
THINK THE DESIGN OF
1958 CARS IS MORE
PLEASING THAN, ABOUT
AS PLEASING AS, OR NOT
AS PLEASING AS THE DE
SIGN OF 1957 CARS?

swers to the question:

Among the men, the only
class which did not contribute
to the "more pleasing" pro
portion was the senior class.
None of the seniors inter
viewed think 1958 cars are
more pleasing than those
made in 1957, but more sen
iors than any other class feel
cars in 1958 are about as
pleasing as the preceding
year's. Freshmen lead all the
men interviewed in feeling
this year's cars are not as
pleasing. An even half of
them gave that answer, as op
posed to twenty-three per cent
of the sophomores, forty per
cent of the juniors and twenty-three
per cent of the sen
iors who agreed.

class breakdown for the men

None of the coeds inter
viewed from two classes said
ihey feel 1958 cars are more
pleasing than their 1957 coun
terparts. This, coupled with
the rather small proportion of
seven per cent of the fresh
men who gave the "more
pleasing" answer accounts for
the small overall coed pro
portion selecting this alterna
tive. Sophomore coeds, however,
were in exact proportional
agreement with their male
classmates in one case. An
even third of both of them
said they feel cars are more
pleasing this year than last.
A complete tabulation of an
swers given by the coeds in
terviewed is as follows:

Although indecision was
shared in exactly equal pro
portions when coeds and col
lege men were considered
overall, class breakdowns in
dicate a greater incidence
among seniors in both cases
who haven't made up their
minds. This may account to
some extent for the fact that
in neither the case of men nor
women did any of the seniors
interviewed show a prefer
ence for 1958 model cars.
