This has followed other thefts of articles from the Union and Girls' Residence Halls. The article taken was an original watercolor and was a part of the Student Art Col lection loaned to the Union by the University Art Galleries. "It is one thing to steal lamps and sand urns that have a definite monetary value and which may even tually be replaced," stated Union staff members, "but it is quite another thing to de prive the Union public of a work of art which has no set value and which we consider irreplaceable." This theft has even a furth er reaching effect than its singular value since the Uni versity Art Galleries has stated it, will withdraw the entire collection if another work should disappear.

The Nebraska University Council on World Affairs, better known as NUCWA, has been relatively inactive in recent years, according to Sherry Drew, NUCWA presi dent. A revision in the or ganization, however, may bring it back into the circle of active campus groups, she said. . The new programs initiated by NUCWA will include panels, discussion groups and speakers. The topics will deal with national and inter-; national affairs and will be chosen with consideration for students' interest. Miss Drew said such topics as SAC, operation of phases of national or state govern ment, issues such as the steel strike and foreign rela tions are possible topics. The organization is hoping to work with the Young Dem ocrats and Young Repulicans in acquainting students with the issues of the 1960 elec tions. Miss Drew reported the possibility of the revival of the mock UN Council. NUCWA in the past helped sponsor the annual council which included participants from the entire state. A new feature this year will be the presentation of an honorary membership in NUCWA to an outstanding Nebraskan in the field of na tional or international affairs. This award will be presented at the NUCWA Banquet to be held in the spring. Miss Drew explained that not only the programs of the organization have been al tered but also the executive council. A third vice presi dency has been added and the duties of all officers clearly defined.

TriDelts Top Spirit Competition Competition for the spirit trophy was close but Delta Delta Delta again topped the sections and kept the trophy for another week. Five others were close. The judges gave honorable men tion to Benton House, Alpha Xi Delta, Kappa Delta, Kappa Alpha Theta and Farmhouse. Signs, pennants, shakers, balloons and confetti were scattered in the East stadium as houses hopefully yelled for the team and the trophy. "Spirit was great this week," said Brent Chambers, yell king, "and we had a hard time deciding. But the Tri Delts were with us yelling every minute to the end. "They also had balloons and shakers which they waved in time to the music and cheers. " "But this does not mean that the contest is cinched," said the cheerleaders. Other houses can equal the spirit at the two remaining home games. Chambers said that signs helped but it was the spirit and loud consistent yelling that counts the most when the judges make their decisions. the background the card section can be seen spelling out 'Hoosiers' over an T to honor the opponent. .

The 1959-60 Directories will be available Dec. 1. Orders for these directories will fc taken by any Board member or assistant, and all orders will be handled in this man ner. Names of members with order blanks may be obtained from Julie Kay, Builders Sales Director, at 2-3587. Advance ordering has been instituted by the Builders this year to facilitate an accurate estimate of the number of Directories to be printed. Due to the Builder's policy of of fering a directory solely for the benefit of the student at a price the student can afford, a strict financial program is necessary. By using advanced sales the Builders will have a correct estimate and will print only the amount that advanced orders require. Those who bave'advanced orders are as sured of receiving their copy. Bookstore sales will not be utilized this year, as they have been in the past. The Student Directory will contain, in a convenient form of listing, the names, num bers and addresses of all stu dents, faculty members, or ganizations and organization presidents. The directory will be a 200-page publication which costs slightly more than two thousand dollars to publish. s. Cheerleader Clinic Held ... Some Coiildrft Yell By Doug McCartney So you want to be a cheer leader, a good cheerleader? Then here's a few tips. Tips that the high school cheerteams from all over the state got. Giving the tips was Ne braska's own yell squad headed by Brent Chambers. Freshmen Tryouts Incidentally, freshmen who want to try out for the squad this coming spring should keep these tips in mind too. The occasion was the sec ond annual Cheerleading CUti'" held during Band Day. The group was so large it had to be broken in two. Half met in Love Memorial and half in the Social Science Building. Sophomore cheerleader Sharon Anderson spoke to the crowd on "good sports manship, emphasizing that "it begins with you!" She pointed .out how the Uni versity ' shows sportsman ship by playing the visiting teams' school song during halftime and the card sec tions forming their name. The cheer squad also goes over to greet the visit ing yell team. Still another friendly gesture, she added, would be to invite them for lunch before the game. Rallies Krizelman spoke on ral-. lies.

He said that the hardest group to get to yell were the upperclassmen. One way to solve the prob lem, he added, was. to stage skits with an upper class boy in them. This us ually brings the desired re sponse. Dave Anstlne showed why the team's movements have to be accurate, easily seen and precise. "Sharp movements keep the crowd together," he stated. He explained that the University has a problem that most high school cheer teams don't a large crowd spread over a wide area. The cheers must be easy to follow, or the crowd can't stay together and ut ter confusion results. Doesn't Count The listeners were im pressed when told that the University cheer team doesn't count during their cheers, but practices until they develop a sense of timing. The four members of the team that were speaking at the Library then sN'H a few of the NetrasL" ells. They were hampered, how ever, by the fact they couldn't yell in the audi torium. In order not to dis turb the studiers r b o v e, only a normal speaking voice was used to demon-st-ate.

No Rhyme "The reason most yells spell out 'Nebraska', he ex plained, "is that it is hard to find anything to rhyme with it." Of the "Go Big Red" yell, Chambers laughed, "It goes so fast it is almost over before the crowd knows it's started." 1 He added that although the team uses only about five regular veils, they use 3 lot of "automatics," like "We want a touchdown" or "Push em back,' way back." Chambers told the visi tors that the Unive-sity's yell leaders are chosen only in the spring of their freshman year, after sev eral practice sessions. They are chosen by a board of representatives of several campus organizations. Eaeh year two new girls and three new boys are chosen. Short Trips The team goes on all the short trips with the football team, said Chambers, add ing "we are under the ad ministration of the athletic department like the foot ball team."'
