Nebraska Grad
A 1930 University of Ne
braska grad, he has been as
sistant to the senior vice
president at Boeing Aircraft
Notches filed in the teeth of
the girl have traits of ancient
Mexican cultures, although
Dr. Holder reports that the
former teeth seem "weak and
hesitant" by comparison.
Notches
From one to four notches
were filed on the biting sur
faces of the upper front teeth
and sometimes of the hori
zontal grooves on the sur
faces of the same teeth.
Dr. T. D. Stewart of the
Smithsonian Institute deter
mined that the dental opera
tions were performed in sev
eral stages during adoles
cence. Teeth
Scattered teeth have been
found throughout the Cahokia
mounds area, where the girl's
remains were uncovered Dy
a tractor, but Dr. Holder re
ported that these teeth were
especially significant because
the remains included a rela
tively complete skeleton in
the original burial site.
Dr. Holder speculated that
the filings might have been
a sign of the Indian girl's so
cial class. The minute she
smiled, he observed, her so
cial standing would have been
obvious.
His work with the Indian
skeleton was reported in the
Journal of the Washington
Academy of Sciences recent

To Report
On Profs
Insert Studies
Importance
This month's issue of the
"Nebraska Alumnus" will
contain 16 page insert deal
ing with the college profes
sor and his importance to
society.
The special report is en
titled "The College Teacher,
1959." It is written through
the eyes of a typical profes
sor, portrayed by Dr. Loren
Eiseley. a 1933 graduate of
the University, now professor
of anthropology at the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania.
Problemg
The report, which is being
published by 249 colleges,
universities and private sec
ondary schools throughout
the United States and Cana
da shows the problems and
rewards of those who teach
in higher education.
It demonstrates that it Is
actually the college teacher
himself who underwrites the
cost of higher education
through a low income far out
of proportion to current liv
ing costs.
The April Issue of the
"Alumnus" will also contain
a report on "The Nebraska
Teacher: His Problems, Re
wards." Sally Adams,
"Alumnus" editor prepared
the feature concerning Uni
versity faculty members.
The national survey was
prepared by 19 alumni mag-!
azine editors from all types'
of education institutions.
Its sponsor was the Ameri
can Alumni council, an inter-
national organization devoted
to Increasing alumni support!
of higher education.
A similar project under-j
taken by a group of these ed- i
itors won immediate ac-1
claim last year. It was a 32- j
page report entitled "Ameri-1
can Higher education, l9oa.
The "Nebraska Alumnus'
was one of the 153 maga
zines which published it.
Bedell Selected
Robert Bedell, assistant
professor of theory and com
position!, has bDen selected
by the Ford Foundation to be
one of the composers to par
ticipate in the Panorama of
Opera sponsored by the New
York Opera Association in

There has been a sharp in
crease in the number of ad
mission requests from cancer
patients in the last 10 years,
according to Duane jonnson,
administrator for the Uni
versity Hospital.
Johnson said that tne tac-
tors contributing to the in
crease are finer diagnostic
techniques, increasing num
ber of aeed people and the in
cidence of cancer in the older
group.
Johnson said that an addi
tional 50 beds would be neces
sary if the hospital were to
accept all the cancer appii
cations.
