MARSHALL
J-School
Professor
Is Dead
Marshall, Noted
World Journalist
Associate Professor of jour
nalism, Alan Marshall, 56,
died early Saturday morning
in a Lincoln hospital.
He had undergone explora
tory surgery earlier this week
which indicated medication,
rather than further surgery,
could lead to recovery.
Prof. Marshall was a form
er member of the Newsweek
magazine staff, a veteran of
the New Yorker and Esquire
magazines and the author of
four mystery novels, one of
which was made into a mo
tion picture.
He received his undergrad
uate degree from Columbia
University and his Masters
degree from the State Univer
sity of Iowa. He also attended
Carngie Institute of Technol
ogy and Columbia Univer
sity's Graduate School.
Before coming to the Uni
versity last fall to head a pro
gram of magazine editing and
writing, Prof. Marshall held
faculty positions at Lafayette
College, Columbia University,
the College of the City of
New York, Boston University,
St. John's College, the State
University of Iowa and
headed Butler University's
School of Journalism at In
dianapolis. He left Newsweek after sev
eral years of writing and
editing to serve with the Of
fice of War Information in
1942, In charge of news and
feature desks for Iceland,
and also wrote columns for
Hawaiian and Indian news
outlets.
He is survived in Lincoln
by his widow, Audrey; father,
John Marshall and sister,
Mrs. William Nolan, both of
Norwell, Mass., and a broth
er, Andrew Marshall of Se
attle, Wash.
Funeral arrangements will
be made by the Sparrell Fun
eral Home in Norwell, Mass.

add eggs next month, and will
continue to add stable pro
ducts all year.
He said that he is having
a big problem with many of
the fraternity housemothers,
because joining the associa
tion limits the places where
they may buy food to one,
but FMA dmands quality
food along with the lowest
possible price.
Several sororities have indi
cated that they would like to
join FMA, and all four fra
ternities at Nebraska Wesley
an University expressed an
intrest. Many of the sorori
ties at the University buy
products from the same com
panies that FMA has con
tracted. The only thing they
have to do to get FMA prices
is join.
Eventually, Dickinson said,
FMA would like to expand in
to a legal non-profit corpora
tion, but as it stands the
whole thing can be run un
der the auspices of the IFC.
"Greek houses spend $500.
000 annually for food, and it
is the goal of FMA to save
these houses 15 per cent of
this total through cooperative
buying," Dickinson said.

CU Situation Tense
Senators
Presiden
Daily Nebraskan Special
Boulder, Colo. Two U.S.
senators recently denounced ;
University of Colorado Presi
dent Quigg Newton for lax
supervision of University af
fairs. In separate letters, Sen.
Gordon Allott (R-Colo) and
Sen. Barry Goldwater (R
Ariz.) decried the publication
of derogatory comemnts about
Goldwater in the Sept. 21
Daily and concluded that
Newton is not doing his job
as president of the Univer
sity.
Goldwater wrote to New
ton: "I doubt that you have
the interest or the concern
to be in the position you
hold."
Allott protested the "con
ditions and attitude which
would permit the publication
of such an article." The arti
cle, written for the Gadfly
supplement by senior Carl
Mitcham, contained a strong
denunciation of Goldwater.
Newton, contacted in Wash
ington by his executive as
sistant Don Saunders, had no
immediate comment on the
matter.
The Arizona Republican
wrote as follows on Newton's
apology: "I must come to
the conclusion that you either

Saunders described G o 1 d
water's message as "a des
picable thing. The Senator is
trying to play Colorado poli
tics and ought to keep his
nose out of the University's
and Colorado's business. The
president (Newton) made a
sincere apology, and this is
a very discourteous re
sponse." Allott said Newton's investi
gation of the Goldwater in
cident last year was "com
pletely unresponsive to the
existing situation. The con
clusions I reached at that
time are more than confirmed
now that (1) a paper which
is basically subsidized by the
state of Colorado should pub
lish a libelous article against
a fellow colleague of mine,
for whom I have the deepest
and most abiding respect,
and against the President of
the United States; (2) that
the editor entrusted with the
publication of the paper is so
lacking in fundamental jour
