CAMPUS . . .
A STUDENT OPINION
POLL, conducted by the stu
dent opinion committee to tap
student opinion concerning
the financial fate of the Daily
Nebraskan, revealed that
nearly even percentages of
700 counted ballots favored
either three-day publication
or a 50 cent hike in tuition.
Three-fourths of the ballots
were inadvertantly incinera
ted bei'ore they were counted.
Committee chairman John
Cosier said the ballots were
placed in a marked waste
basket for safekeeping. Union
janitor John Collins said the
wastebasket bore no signs
when he emptied it.
. THE UNIVERSITY YOUNG
DEMOCRATS (YD's) official
ly protested to the Student
Union about a campaign
booth maintained in the Union
by the Young Republicans.
Acting YD chairman Bob
Cherny said the booth was
unmanned during much of
each day and that "smear lit
erature" was distributed and
displayed from the booth.

A LANCASTER COUNTY
DISTRICT court ruling this

STATE BANKING DIREC
TOR Henry Ley Tuesday took
under advisement a propos
al to establish a new state
bank in Lincoln at 2037 South
17th Street. Howard Hall, one
of the sponsors of the new
bank said the area is a good
business district and has "ev

attorneys have testified their
opinions that there is no need
for a bank at that location.

citizens to take advantage of

SEN. ROMAN HRUSKA
said he expects construction
to start soon on the new U.S.

the Department of Agriculture

THE NATION MOURNED
the death of former President
Herbert Hoover, president
from 1929-1932, who died in
New York Tuesday. Orph
aned at an early age, Hoover
graduated from Stanford Uni
versity and earned a fortune
as a mining engineer. Burial
was set for West Branch,
the spot where he was born
in 1874.
AMERICAN GIRLS are any
thing but sugar and spice, ac
cording to a New York wom
an anthropologist. Dr. Ethel
Alpenfels told a group in Bos
ton that "little girls are
trained to be operators" at
an early age. "If a boy tries
to assert authority at an early
age," she said, "he is con
sidered a bully." She said
the newest shift in social
mores is the "girl who
doesn't want to marry the
father of her child."
A 70-YEAR-OLD widow
made headlines in Los Ange

swastika armband from the
arm of a Nazi demonstrator
and threw it in his face. When
a contingent of policemen ar

Robert Martell, was picketing
a Democratic party dinner.

Spirited YR Go-Girls
YR's Reply To YD
In response to charges
against the Young Republican
booth in the Student Union,
YR president Bill Harding last
night' issued a statement of
rebuttal.
Harding stressed three main
points which he said the YD's
had emphasized in their
charges.
Concerning the charge that
the booth was not manned by
a YR representative at ail
times, Harding said "At least
we have a booth which thpy
do not. At least we are mak
ing an attempt to inform the
people."
The YD's also claimed that
the booth was a "name dis
play." To this Harding said,
"Yes, it is and it is a major
part of our campaign, using
our time and effort to cam
paign and project the names
of our candidates not like
LBJ relying on the taxpayer's
money and resources."
The third point of the YD
claims said Harding was what
they labeled "smear materi
al." "While it is true that there
are many points of not com
pletely substantiated material
that sift through a campaign,
there can be, however, no one
to say that this speculation
can not be continued simply
on the basis that it might not
be true; for many times, ex
pecially in the instance of the
Democratic party and its can
didates it is verified," Hard
ing said. "For example, the
Baker, Estes, TFX and Jen
kins affairs do provide some
reason for LBJ's 'lights off
in the White House' campaign

Allen Bennett, director of

organizations who may use

of material displayed in the

His comment referred to a

stated that materials in the
Young Republican booth

Students will get a chance
to voice their political pref
erences when the Student
Council sponsors a mock-election
for national and state of
fices Wednesday.
The election will be held in
the main lobby of the Stu
dent Union from 8 a.m. to
5:30 p.m. The only require
ment for voting will be the
student's ID card.
Student Council's Public Is
sues committee is in charge
of conducting the election.
Larry F-olik, Publu Issues
chairman, said that students
will cast their votes for their
favorite candidates in the
presidential, gubernatorial,
state Legislature and Con
gressional races.
Students are urged to be
aware of what Congressional
district they live in, so that
they will know which of the
three Congressional races
they should vote in.
Out-of-state students are
asked not to vote in the con
gressional contests, but will be
allowed to vote for governor
and lieutenant governor.
"The choice of governor and
lieutenant governor is related
enough to the University thai
these students' preferences
should be shown," Frolik
said.
The students will vote in
the following contests: Presi
dent and vice president Lyn
don Johnson and Humbert
Humphrey, Democrats, vs
Barry Goldwater and William
Miller, Republicans.

Union Booth
Bennett said if he censored
material in the booth spon
sored by a political group, he
would have to go on to the
published magazines in t h e
Union rack, to a review of
the Daily Nebraskan, and to
screen all activity in each
committee meeting that took
place in the Union.
"In other words," he said,
"we would have to assume
bad faith."
"The issue that I feel is at
stake, is that either the YD's
or the YR's have had an op
portunity to exercise complete
freedom. They both should
show responsible action in re
sponsible ways."

State Ag Department
Finances Cattle Study
The University has signed
an agreement with the Neb
raska State Department of
Agriculture and Economic
Development authorizing a
study aimed at developing an
accurate diagnosis for the
cattle disease, vibriosis.
Vibriosis is now considered
the most important cause of
infertility of cattle.
Vibriosis is a veneral dis
ease of cattle transmitted by
and through breeding stock or
by artificial insemination with
Infected semen. As a result,
"vibrio" is widely distributed
on beef cattle herds, and its
incidence has increased
alarmingly in Nebraska and
adjacent sta.es, according to
Dr. M. J. Twiehaus, chair
man of the University De
partment of Veterinary Sci
ence, who will lead the re
search. There is no effective control
procedure for vibriosis at the
present time according to
Twiehaus. Growing the vi
briosis organisms in a labor
atory is now the only known
way to make a positive diag
nosis of vibriosis. Many prob
lems are encountered under
this method, making the lab
bratory procedure longer,
more difficult and often re
liable, Twiehaus said.
"The probability of develop
ing a fluorescent-antibody
technique for diagnosing vi
briosis in individual animals
is reasonably good," Twie
haus said. Such a diagnosis
is essential if a potentially
severe outbreak of the dis
ease is to be controlled, he
added. In some Nebraska
range areas, the disease al
ready has "run rampant," he
said.
The research to be conduct
ed in Nebraska, involving the
iood
political choices be known",
ne said.

proach, will not duplicate
limited work on vibriosis be
ing done in other states. One
of the hindrances to expanded
research in vibriosis is its
singularly high cost, because
substantial numbers of live
cattle must be used.
Many animal diseases can
be and have been studied in
the laboratory with the use of
relatively inexpensive small
animals, such as guinea pigs,
rats and rabbits, but this
is not the case with vibriosis.
In the University study, at
tempts will be made to isolate
specific strains of vibriosis
from naturally occurring cas
es for.nd on the range. Cul
tures from infected tissues
will be grown in the labora
tory, and an effort made to
induce development of anti
bodies. Successful adaptation of the
fluorescent antibody technique
would make it possible to de
tect either living or dead "vi
brio" organisms in tissues
or speciments submitted. An
other approach that will be
undertaken by University re
searchers will be to detect an
tibodies in the blood sera of
other tissues, Twiehaus said.
While animal health re
searchers generally believe
several years may be re
quired to perfect a diagnos
tic technique for the positive
indentificatlon of vibriosis in
an individual beef animal, the
initial agreement is for the
fiscal year ending June 30,
1965.
A maximum of $20,000 is
authorized to be expended
from Department of Agricul
ture funds for salaries of Uni
versity research and techni
cal personnel, consumable
equipment and experimental
animals.
