The bequest, $14,140 or
13.5 of his estate, was left
to the University with "no
strings attached," said Comp
troller Joseph Soshnik. The
money may be used for any
purpose.
The late Mr. Larsen had at
tended the University's Col
lege of General Sciences and
received his Bachelor of Sci

was a native of Sweden. H

He left to Luther Academy
at Wahoo, which he attended
3 years before enrolling in the
University, the same amount.
Protest Registered
Mrs. Carolyn Whitesel of
home extension agent in Kear
Minden, a former county
ney County, appeared before
the Board of Regents Satur
day morning to protest her
resignation which was before
the board for approval.
She declared that Kearney
County Extension Board had
discharged her for what she
termed reasons of "profes
sional jealousy."
In a letter read before the
board, Mrs. Whitesel said that
"due to the incompetence of
the Director of the Extension
Program in Kearney County,
there was no proper 'Annual
Extension Meeting' held in
compliance with the Mem
brandum of Understanding."
This, she said, indicated
that the Extension Board in
that county could "very like
ly" be operating without au
thority during 1958.
After hearing two represent
atives of the home extension
project in Kearney County,
Mrs. Elmer Bergsten of Nor
man and Mrs. Harold Brown
of Minden, the Board of Re
gents moved to table the mat
ter of Mrs. WTiitesel's resigna
tion until more information
concerning the m a 1 1 e r was
available.
In other action, the board
accepted gifts of an oil paint
ing and a sculpture to the Uni
versity art collection.
The oil painting, "The
Charge of the Light Brigade"
I by Roy Lichtenstein, was pre.
sented by Dr. Bernard Kron-
enberg of New York.
The sculpture in cast stone,
"Mountain Figure" by Louis
Nevelson, was presented by
Miss Anita Berliawsky of
Rockland, Maine.
Both works of art have been
in the gallery on loan.
