The final nominations ior
Outstanding Nebraskan
Award are Dr. Donald Pace,
Diane Armour, Gary Radii,
Bob Sidell, Mike White and
Victor Lacy.
Nominations for the honor,
the winner of which will be
announced in tomor
row's DAILY NEBRASKAN,
were so heavy that they have
been run all week, although
the deadline for their submis
sion was Monday.
The nominations include 12
students and seven faculty
members.
Pace . . .
The letter nominating Pace,
who is professor of physiology
and director of the Institute
for C e 1 1 u 1 a r Research, re
ferred to his "rare instance of
combined outstanding re
search and teaching talent."
"Pace adopted Nebraska in
the middle 1940 s and since
then has rejected clinical di
rectorships, endowed private
chairs and so called 'prestige
appointments' to r e m a i n at
Nebraska. Here, he has fo
cused critical internation
al and sensitive scientific at
tention on the University."
"At present, strains of hu
man and animal cells, kept
living outside the body, are
the focal point of concentrated
research under Pace's direc
tion. Following a theory ad
vanced by Nobel Prize win
ning scientist Dr. Otto War
burg, he is testing reaction
of cells to low oxygen concen
tration trying to uncover what
mechanism is damaged with
in the cell that brings about
malignant change.
"He has developed a human
lung cell strain from which
two cell lines have been iso
lated. Pace's research is point
ing to the answer in malig
nancy. When the answer is
discovered, there is great
hope that the fight against
cancer will have an additional
powerful weapon .This will be
Pace's continued contribution
to humanity.
"Beyond his research tal
ents, Pace hag written two
highly used college textbooks.
"Co liege Physiology" and
"Physiology and Anatomy for
Norses." He is also prob
ably the leader in bringing re
search grants to the Univer
sity his National Institute
of Health standing has result
ed in national attraction."
"Pace has been honored by
his alma mater, Susquehanna
University, as its Dis
tinguished Outstanding Alum
ni; his prior teaching chairs
have been at Duke Univer
sity and John Hopkins Univer
sity." Pace's gigantic reputation!
has taken him to the Interna
tional Cancer Conference in
Moscow in 1963, hundreds of
scientific conferences in t h e
United States and 1965 will see
him playing a prominent role
in the International Cancer
Research Institute in Tokyo,
Japan."
"He embodies the pioneer
spirit of Nebraska hi re
search endeavors catapult
him to the zenith of his chosen
profession his warm manly
qualities make him a tower of
strength within the Universi
ty's faculty. Beloved by stu
dentsfor he has never for
gotten his public health or
graduate classes; respected
bv his colleagues, and valued
and cheered by lawmakers be
cause of his energy, Integrity
and conslstancy, he standi as
a mark of human industry and
theoretical devotion."
'Humble and cautious, he
would not seek this recogni
tion himself, however those
Nebraskans and those schol
ars world wide who know him
will join in thunderous ap
plause at the recognition of
this truly Outstanding Ne
braskan." Miss Armour
The letter of nomination for
Miss Armour stated that she
deserved the honor on the bas
is of her record of accomplish
ments at the University. "Her
scholastic abilities have al
ways been evident. She proved
her merit as a freshman by
being initiated into Alpha
Lambda Delta scholastic hon
orary for women."
"In 1901 Miss Armour was
chosen to represent her class
vr. the Dean's Advisory Board
cl Teachers College. Rewards
for her efforts continued
throughout hr Junior year as
sh was ms'd not only as a
member of Mortar Btards but
as secretary of this honorary
on Ivy Day."
"Miss Armour has been on
the University honor roll
throughout her college career
with an accumulative grade
average of 7.514. On Ivy Day.
Mf IMeisavs Q u f
1964, she was the recipient of
the American Association of
University Women Award, giv
en to the outstanding senior
woman."
"With all her scholastic
achievements, Miss Armour
has still found time to active
ly participate in University
organizations. During her
freshman year she was in a
variety of activities and
worked hard on them."
"As a worker on Hospitality
Committee of Nebraska
Union, she was recognized as
an outstanding worker."

Miss Stanton feels the new
addition, which will house 20

said most other soroities were
not feeling immediate grow

Only Alpha Delta Pi,

krtin's Idea Results In Changes
Student Tribunal has
emerged from a period of un
certainty as an effective in
stitution which is regarded as
a "safeguard for students and
an aid to the Administration,"
according to Dick Rosenberg,
Tribunal chairman.
Rosenberg, presenting h i s
semester report to Student
Council, outlined the Tribun-
j al's development from the
former policy of handling
many minor cases by preced
ent, through the period of ad
justment early this year to
its present setup.
The change were brought
about through the concept af
fixed to the Tribunal by J.
Winston Martin, associate
dean of Student Affairs, who
came to the University last
fall. Rosenberg explained
Martin's "conduct counsel
ling" idea, which sought to
minimize embarrassment and
punishment in favor of under-
OffSfOfl
BQQ$tS
property off the campus to
"take the big step."
Fraternities seem to agree
that they might be the first
establishing houses "off-campus",
but none have definite
plans for that move. Phi Gam
ma Delta and the Theta Xi's
have considered additions
while Alpha Tau Omega has
definite plans to begin build
ing by 1965 into their back
parking lot. Most of the es
tablished houses have or plan
to build additions on campus.
Kappa Alpha Psi, new and
yet to be recognized, has
no definite house plans, ac
cording to President Gene
Young. Young said that the
future for the fraternity has!
been limtied to "looking
around."

mour could not have received
all of these honors and gained
all of these rewards without
a pleasing and outgoing per
sonality. Her honors reflected
not only upon herself, but up
on her family when she was
chosen to be an Ak-Sar-B e n

Lacy . . .
Nine students nominated
Victor Lacy in a letter to the
DAILY NEBRASKAN. The
standing and rehabilitation to
the offender.
A major point in "conduct
counselling" is the bypassing
of conduct probation by the
Tribunal in making recom
mendations for punishment to
the Division of Student Af
fairs. Rather than a fixed
term in which the student is
banned from campus activi
ties, Rosenberg said, offend
ers are put on probation with
out restriction for the duration
of their time at the Univer
sity. "Under this plan our pun
ishment is not negative," Ros
enberg said. "In the past the
offenders often repeated their
mistakes because they had
more time on their hands."
Rosenberg termed "espe
cially important" anagree
ment between Martin and the
Tribunal that no student could
be dropped from the Univer
sity without a chance to ap
pear before the Tribunal.
In reviewing the reasons
that the Tribunal has heard
fewer cases this year than In
preceeding years, Rosenberg
said that, although minor in
fractions and minor-in-poses-sion
offenses no longer come
before the Tribunal, Martin's
personal conferences achieve
better results than Tribunal
action. When an offense is re
peated several times, howev
er, the Tribunal would bear
the case.
"It is gratifying to note
that we have been upheld in
every case but one," Rosen
berg said, in commending the
cooperation between the Divi
sion of Student Affairs and the
Tribunal. The one case in
volved immediate expulsion
of a student whom the Tri
bunal had recommended be
allowed to finish the semester
and not be readmitted.
In answer to a question by
John Klein, Rosenberg said
that Administration has the
right to overrule Tribunal de
cisions, but such cases are
the rare exception. In the spe
cific case under discussion,
he said the decision was ba
sically the same "but Admin
istration was just a little
meaner."
Tribunal members this
year in addition to Rosenberg,
! were Dr. Dallas Williams and
Dr. John Paustrano, faculty
members and Jim McGlnnls
Carla Tortora, Tom Chandler,
Dick Schmelfng, John Lahiff
and Terry Vogt, student mem
bers. New Tribunal members
were sworn in by Council
President John Lydick. They
ara Karen Johnson, V i c k i
Dowling, Mike Wisemann,
Jim McGinnis, Terry Vogt
and Hal Daub.
In other business Registrar
Floyd Hoover explained the
new system of registration by
mail which will go into op
eration next year. He spoke
enthusiastically of the pro
posed identification cards,
which will be plastic and per
manent, and which will en
able the University to process
cards, grades and schedules
much faster than the present
system allows.
Susie Segrist asked Hoover
If some arrangement would
be made to mark the cards
til 'in
letter said that "Lacy has
shown an unswerving desire
and ability to promote the
well-being and the active en
joyment of life among those
with whom he has come in
contact."
"This desire Is seen in all
his interpersonal relationships
and may be easily confirmed
by simply talking to almost
anyone with whom he has
come in contact, so great is
his influence among the im
portant students of this Uni
versity." Lacy was the winner of a
four year Regents Scholar-

during campus elections.
Hoover said, "This is a prob
lem I did not forsee, and this
is why I came to Student
Council." Hoover invited Miss
Segrist to meet him next week
to work out a solution. In the
past, the paper ID cards
were punched for identifica
tion during elections.
In conclusion, the Registrar
expressed a wish to speak to
the Council in the fall to tell
about "some way-out day
dreams," and the possibilities I
carried in the
coming world
of computers.
Phys Ed
Required
For Year
All University students.
with the exception of those in
home economics and Teach
ers Colleges, will be required
to take one year of physical
education in order to gradu
ate, according to Lee Chat
field, associate dean of Stu
dent Affairs.
Chatfield said that the de
cision is "a current and in
terim policy and could be
changed after another year."
ROTC courses may be substi
tuted for the physical educa
tion requirement.
Home economics and teach
ing students must take two
years of physical education
as specified by their respec
tive and departmental college
rules.
Chatfield noted the differ
ence between the prevailing
policy under compulsory
ROTC and the new policy on
physical education. "Previ
ously the Board of Regents
required all students to take
ROTC and substitute physi
cal education if necessary."
"Now the colleges require
physical education and allow
them to substitute ROTC."
Broader knowledge of
mathematics will be required
of students studying agricul
ture starting in September,
1966.
But requirements for girls
entering home economics
will not be changed, accord
ing to Dr. F. E. Eldridge,
director of resident instruc
tion. Present entrance require
ments for agriculture stu
dents are one unit of algebra
and one unit of other mathe
matics, preferably plane
geometry or second-year alge
bra. In 1966 the requirements
will be two units of algebra
and one unit of plane geome
