Judiciary
Comes For
Convocation
Judge Biggs Speaks
At Law College
The Honorable John Biggs
Jr., chief judge of the third
Judicial Circuit of the United
States is the scheduled
speaker for the October 10
Law College convocation.
Judge Biggs will speak on
a subject he has a first hand
knowledge of, "The Guilty
Mind: Psychiatry and the
Law of Homicide."
Author of several law and
fiction books, he is best
known for his book "The
Guilty Mind" published in
1955. His efforts gained him
the Issac Ray award given
each year for the best con
tribution for improvement of
relations between law and
psychiatry.
He told Professor Henry
Grether of the Law College
by long distance telephone
call that he plans to empha
size his talk by using th
"law of Durham," referring
to the famous the United
States versus Durham case.
This was the first case in
the history of the United
States that laid the ground
work for the insanity test in
a court trial, Prof. Grether
explained.
Besides being one of the
top judges in the U.S. and in
the third judicial circuit en
compassing Pennsylvania,
Naw Jersey, Delaware, Mar
yland and the Virgin Islands,
Biggs is noted for his writ
ten opinions on judicial cases
across the U.S., Prof. Greth
er said.
Judge Biggs is also known
for his work as chairman on
several federal judicial com
mittees including the commit
tees on courts of administra
tion and judicial statistics.
Prof. Grether added that
Judge Biggs returned from
a world-wide tour a year
ago. While on this tour, Judge
Biggs conferred with several
leading judges and leaders in
the field of law.
Judge Biggs is scheduled
to arrive in Lincoln Saturday
morning, by plane. After at
tending a reception in his
honor by the faculty of the
Law College, Judge Biggs will
attend the Nebraska-Kansas
State football game, Prof.
Grether said.
All interested people are
invited to the 10 a.m. convo
cation at the Law College.

division and the small house
men's division. Traveling tro

Homecoming Queen
The Homecoming Queen
and her attendants will be
selected by the student body
from the 10 finalists selected
by an interviewing board.
Each house may enter one
candidate in the Queen con
test. Candidates must be jun
iors in good standing at the
University and will be judged
on personality, beauty, ac
tivities and popularity vote.
Finalists will be selected
by the Interviewing Board
made up of the Tassel presi
dent and vice president, Yell
King, president on the N
Club, one woman faculty
member, president of the
Corn Cobs and a football
team representative.
The Queen will be crowned
by Skip Harris, 1959 Home
coming Queen, at the Coro
nation rally at 7 p.m. on
Oct. 27.
A change this year requires
the Queen and her attend
ants to ride in convertibles
in the Homecoming Parade
on Oct. 28. Previously the
queen rode on a float.
The queen will then make
her appearance at the half

than half of the delegates
were from the South Ameri

Itally located."
He reportea that there was

representatives, including

At present, the Women's
Residence Halls house 531
students with an additional
88 coeds living in the newly

ernment financing of such ft
project.
Government financing is not
considered desirable for stu
dent housing because it
would show discrimination
against students living off
campus, according to Uni
versity Business Manager
Carl Donaldson.
"This method of private fi
nancing makes it imperative
that we budget the money
carefully. Td accomplish this,
we prefer to lag behind with
housing facilities rather than
to overbuild," Harper said.
Gifts Doubtful
"Advance building pro
grams which were utilized to
only 80 per cent of capacity
would prevent us from meet
ing the committments set by
the Board of Regents," he ex
plained. Harper feels there is little
probability of receiving gifts
to finance such a program at
the1 present time.
An alternate method of rais
ing funds by increasing the
cost of board and room might
be feasible, but could also
backfire if students chose to
attend other colleges as a re
sult, Harper commented.
The new housing may be
one of three types depending
on the results of the study.
A 11 girls' dorm, all boys'
do or a co-ed dorm similar
to iurr Hall might be built,
Harper said.
. Men's Housing
Any new men's housing
would be located on the east
side of 17th St. from R to
Vine.
Possible sites for new
women's housing are the west
side of 17th St. between R and
Vine and the corner lots of
