Spirit Still Burns
In Golden Years
University alums are often . interested ' in their alma
mater, but few display the spirit of two ladies from Cali
fornia. In a letter to the Daily Nebraskan, Miss Mabel Fossler
of Pasadena, (class of '07) requested a year's subscrip
tion to the paper for herself and her sister. Miss Anna
Fossler (class of '95.)
But Miss Fossler wants to know more about the Uni
versity. Her letter said in part:
"Write and tell me about that scarlet and cream hat.
i wani one large size I have head and hair to put into
MJ postal cards, and for
it. How much is it?
"Also, I would like some
that I enclosed an extra $1.
"We are well for our ages, holding our own, and are
interested in the University.
Sincerely,
Mabel"
The Daily Nebraskan thanks you, Mabel, for vour in
terest. Your Daily Xebraskans are on the way and we
hope that you'll write us again on some of those XU post
cards we're sending vou.

By Wayne Kreuscher
Senior Staff Writer
What would the campus be
like without Homecoming dis
plays?
Is all the time, work and
money really worth it?
Do the advantages outnum
ber the disadvantages or vice
versa?
These are questions which
many students and student or
ganizations are now asking;
themselves.
The controversy has per
sisted for many years, but
this year with the Innocents'
announcement that it has
withdrawn sponsorship of the
Homecoming display award,
these questions are especial
ly pertinent.
Campus opinion seems to be
mixed and almost an equal
amount of people appear to
stand on both sides of the con
troversy. Helene Weinberg expressed
the common complaint that
the displays cost too much
and take up too much study
time.
"All this money and time
can be used for better things,"
she said. "The time can be
used studying and the money
spent for community projects.
Another student who agrees
with her is Nancy Baker. "It
would be sad to abandon the
whole Homecoming festival,"
she explained, "but the dis
play effort should be turned
toward something charitable."
Agreeing that the displays
do take up a great deal of
time and especially hurt
freshman who are studying
for their first hour exams,
Bob Schuchman put a differ
ent light on the question.
"I personally like the idea
of the displays," he said, "but
1 found out when I was a
freshman and worked on them
for nearly two weeks that
my studying got terrifically
behind. Some sort of arrange
ment should be made with
Administration so that work
on the displays would not
come at the same time as
the first set of hour exams."
"I like the displays.' said
Sudie Holman. "They are a
good tradition and fun to do.
They build spirit and I real
ly don't think freshmen have
to p u t too much work into i tjie
mem.
fact that they are good tradi
tion and a "good time to get
to know the people in your
house."
Dobie Olsen agreed with
her and said, "I think we
should continue having dis
plays as they are a tradition
which lots of people look for
ward to."
Jim Demars remarked, "Al
though they take a lot of ef
fort, money and time they
wouldn't hurt studvin i
much if instructors d id n ' t
make it a point to give tests
then."
Tranda Schultz stressed the
They are definitely
most outstanding
one of
things
done on campus all year,
said Dan Doud, "and it would
be too bad to see them just
disappear."
John King pointed out that
they were a good tradition,
but that they shouldn't be
done in the fall so close to
Kosmet Klub.
"Work on both Kosmet Klub
and the Homecoming displays
is just too much, but if they
were separated more it
wouldn't hurt anyone's study
ing," he said.
Kathy Gates said she
i thought "all the work and
time and money is part of the
tradition and. fun."
"We'd lack a lot of spirit
without them." sai.1 Susie
Lincoln, "and it's a great
time when the school can
have fun and the freshmen
can show enthusiasm for their
new school.
One freshman had his own
views on the whole controver
sy. "I'm only a freshman,"
said Mike Naden. "and I
haven't had to work on them
yet, but I can't help but think
a great tradition that has been
here so long shouldn't be just
completely forgotten.
"Studying is the first and
most important thing, but a
little work on a display maybe
I late one night and a few after
noons shouldn't hurt one's
grades, but make him feel a
part of the school and its
great tradition."

"I don't t h i n k it would be

!lin. "So much money and
time is put into them."
Not everyone agrees that
the disadvantages of work,
time and money out number
the advantages of the displays.

Two-week Tour
Benefits Students
By Jane Palmer
"I benefited more from this
one month than from a whole
semester at school" remarked
Larry Engelkemier. a Univer
sity Agriculture Economics
major.
Larry was speaking of the
Danforth award, which al
lowed him and Janice Luebbe
to travel to St. Louis for two
weeks of tours and to a camp
in Stony Lake. Mich, for two
weeks.
"Our busy schedule for the
two weeks in St. Louis in
cluded first-hand observation
of modern business activities
in home economics and re
lated areas," said Janice, who
is now student teaching at
North High in Omaha.
Larry toured a bank, the
grain exchange, and Mc
Donald Air Craft, where the
Gemini Capsules are assem
bled. He said that these tours
were beneficial because they
"gave you an idea of where
you were going in the business
world with agriculture."
