" Senate Session
Wednesday's Senate meeting was refreshing. Some
thing was accomplished.
FOUR RESOLUTIONS were adopted by the Senators.
All are of a significant nature.
The committee formed to study the broad scope of
"social" problems encountered by University students can
be very effective. The original resolution, restricting Sen
ate study to the drinking problem, was defeated.
THE BROADER BASED committee will allow a more
comprehensive study of all the problems and implications.
But the importance of the drinking problem should not
be overlooked. It should take first priority in the commit
tee's studies. We hope more than a report outlining the
drinking problem results.
THE RESOLUTION to begin night and weekend inter
campus bus service should be popular with those stu
dents who must attend night and Saturday morning class
es on one or the other campuses. Even if the added service
would not pay for Itself we urge Administrative officials
in Student Affairs to acknowledge the need and provide
the bus service.
SENATOR GARY LARSEN presented an impressive
Cultural Affairs Committee resolution proposing an FM
radio station at the University of Nebraska to be run
and controlled by students.
Attendance at the Dale Schoor speech in the Union
ballroom Wednesday would indicate that Larsen's assump
tion, that conflicts prevent many students from attending
speeches and lectures of interest, is correct. The proposed
FM station would allow such broadcasts of general uni
versity interest to be made.
All Husky Voices
There is something peculiar about the yearly criticism
of the unreasonable hours restricting University women.
A RESOUNDING CRY is heard every year, but amaz
ingly enough the voices are quite often husky and deep
definitely not soprano or alto either. Simply, the men
on this campus complain more about having to get their
girl to the door by 9:00 p.m., or 1:00 p.m.' on weekends
than the girls do.
OUR SITUATION is not reflected in most colleges
and universities across the nation. A great number of
schools allow their senior women "key privileges" with
no hour restriction.
Some have granted this privilege to junior women
who have obtained their parents' permission.
THE EXTENDED PRIVILEGES have caused few
problems. Indiana University gave "no hour" privileges
to their senior women in September. They have had no
problems no one has abused the privilege according to
the president, Elvis J. Starr.
Why University of Nebraska women have not petitioned
or protested for a liberalization of hours is known but to
them. Perhaps they don't have the guts, the ambition, or
determination.
WHATEVER THE REASON, it is obvious that there
will not be a liberalization in AWS rules until the girls
stand up and shout for it or even whisper.

I Vvn U f V ftfJni.ULi? X
By Gale Pokorny
A common curse for the majority of"
the college students wandering around
is sleep. One can get either too much of
it or not enough. It is the latter condi
tion that I find more irritating some days.
I have nothing against sleep. Some
people that I almost admire get a great
deal of it and I must confess that on
rare occasions, even I sleep.
But it has its place. I came to this
conclusion last week when by pure
chance I happened to drop into my local
bank and check my account. I found that
the bank was checking into me, (funniest
thing) they wanted to know such things
as my address, how I was going to get
the money I didn't have, how many gold
teeth I have etc. Panic-stricken, I ran to
call home for cash, (a sort of private
Dial-Finance) and found that all the
phone booths were occupied by Sleeping
Beauties or Rip Van Winkles. All my
pounding could not awaken them.
Since I only had ten minutes before
the bank foreclosed on my Madras ward
robe, I was forced to deal with the local
loan shark. Temporarily my head was
above water and I could devote my in
terests to other things, namely the hour
exam that I had the next morning.
I needed peace and quiet, so I packed
my thermos of coffee, transistor radio,
window fan, latest issue of Playboy and
oh yes, my books and headed for a li
brary carrel.
'Unfortunately I had a great deal of
trouble finding an empty carrel. They
were full of people blissfully piling up the
-Z's. Students, grad-students, and instruc
tors alike all were reclining in the chairs
or leaning forward on the desks and sleep
ing. It was so peaceful and calm. It was
really touching. I wished. I'd had a cher
ry bomb. '

Finally on the top floor of the stacks,
in one of those crumby lit carrels with
the goose neck lamps, I found an empty
desk. It was empty because the guy
sleeping there had fallen off his chair
and rolled out without waking up. I care
fully stepped over his body and sat down
in the carrel, (ah, sweet victory at last).
I had just barely finished pouring myself
a cup of coffee, adjusted my portable
sun lamp, and tuned on my transistor
(with ear plug) when my math professor
walking in his sleep bumped into the shelf
of books outside my carrel door and
promptly sat down and began to snore
like it was going out of style. I threw
up my hands in despair, it was no use, J
could not study with such distraction and
infernal racket. So I packed up the es
sential study aids that I had brought
along into my wheelbarrow and left.
Back at my room, I found my room
mate likewise imitating a chainsaw at his
desk. I considered hitting him with my
slide rule but decided against it as I
might have broken my slide rule. I fin
ally left and with some difficulty did
manage to find a place to study. It took
me quite a bit longer than usual to study
because the atmosphere around a street
lamp on O Street isn't really too conduc
ive to intellectual pursuits.
Next morning, as my brain brimmed
with carefully arranged tidbits of know
ledge, I walked into the classroom con
fident and ready. The instructor handed
out the exams. 1 quickly scanned it and

Picture From Tokyo
Anti-War
Cause
Editor's Note: The follow
ing letter was sent from
Tokyo, Japan, by a Univer
sity graduate whose hus
band is presently in the
service in Viet Nam.
Students of the University
of Nebraska:
Today's issue of The Ja
pan Times glared at me
with headlines reading
"U.S. Antiwar Demonstra
tions Erupt from Coast to
Coast." Above this on the
front page was a picture of
the march in New York pro
testing U.S. policy in Viet
Nam.
Let me tell you just what
kind of a picture of Ameri
ca this gives to all who read
this. First, in the pictures,
the Stars and Stripes is
flanked by Viet Cong flags.
Yes, Viet Cong flags. Sec
ondly, one soon feels that we
Americans do not support
our government and that
we are afraid to stand
up and fight for our Ameri
can principles. Isn't this a
pleasant picture to present
to the rest of the world?
Isn't this made-to-order
Serviceman's Message
Dear Editor:
Just in case any of o u r
University students had
any doubts about, or j u s t
might be wondering about
the morale situation in Viet
Nam, I thought I would
like to relate this exerpt
from a personal letter from
an American serviceman
now serving in Viet Nam:
"We live in large tents
and work about fifteen
hours a day with only two
meals and two beers plus
a little lunch thrown in to
keep us happy. It's very hot
and it rains just a little
too much for me, like about
twelve and thirteen days
straight, day and night. . .
"Tell me, are there many
anti-Viet Nam things going
around your school? I think
it is very immature of those
people. Most of them are
probably draft dodgers.
What I would like to see is
this: bring all of those
people over here and 1 e t
them sleep in a fox hole and
get shot at a few times
and see what they do.

On International Week
Dear Editor:
As a foreign student I am
pleased to read your edi
torial of Monday, Nov. 1,
regarding Internation
al Week.
The Nebraska Union ob
serves the "International

Germany. There are about
200 foreign students at the
University from about forty

propaganda for Communists
everywhere?
Okay, let's do something
about it! You are college
students a part of the groups
who have so loudly pro
claimed their anti-American
feelings. But you are
the silent part of the group.
There is no excuse for sil
ence; there is no excuse
for apathy. You must voice
your support of our govern
ment's policy in Viet Nam.
This does not mean we
are war mongers. Rather,
we will fight to preserve our
freedoms if and when it's
necessary. It's necessary
now. If we pulled out of Viet
Nam now, it would be cat
astrophic. We would be
giving a green light to the
Communists to take over
wherever they want to, in
cluding our country.
One more thing. My hus
band, like thousands of oth
er men, is helping to fight
the war in Viet Nam. It is
not an easy job, nor a
pleasant one. Can you ima
gine how they feel when
they read reports s u c h as
these? There is no other
all day and find out there is
no water and they stink and
want to take a shower.
Of they are just in off
a patrol and find out that
no food was saved for
them. But you will find out
that most of the guys are
glad they can help out most
of these Vietnamese.
Sure, they would like to
leave they would be fools
not to want to leave, but
they have a job to do and
they will do it to the best
of their ability. And after
they come back in off a pa
trol and find out there is
no hot food and they will
have to eat cold 'c" ra
tions and there are no
showers, they may yell and
scream and all but ten
minutes later they will be
laughing and cutting up
like nothing ever happened
and forget all about
stinking.
Let's see the people back
home do that. So all I can
say about the guys who pro
test is that they can go to
HELL."

However, it is surprising
to know that not a single
student is from Germany.
As you said, one could call
it "Germany Week" but it
hardly justifies being called
"International Week."
Moreover it is a sad fact
that in this so called In
ternational Week there is
virtually no room for the
participation of any other
country except Germany.
Does it mean that the Ne
braska Union has not found
anything interesting enough
about the countries repre
sented by their students on
this campus?

Delusions Of Grandeur
Dear Editor:
In previous years, there
was well founded concern
about pedestrian safety at
the corner of 14th and S
Streets. Now a new, but
similar, danger is present.
The students living in
Abel Hall must have delu
sions of grandeur as they
cross 17th Street one-half
block north of Vine Street.
They obviously feel that
while they are jaywalking,
a car coming down 17th
Street at 35 miles per hour
will not accidentally hit
them. So far they have been

to fulfill their destinies
without applause. They are
the cement and tap-roots of

Why A Court?
Dear Editor:
I am sure at one time or
another everyone has seen
a detective story where
three people each claim to
have committed the crime
in question. So what do the
police do, punish all three?
Of course not. They take
the time to find the guilty
one and he pays the price
which is as it should be.
Well two weeks ago I
was told by the Student
Traffic Appeals Court that
since they didn't know who
was guilty, we all must
pay.
I am refering to getting
a parking ticket for taking
two stalls. The way I look
at it that's pretty hard to
do when only one parking
space is left in the whole
lot. I took it only to find
out the guy beside me was
not parked between the two
red lines, so we both got a
ticket.
I decided to appeal the
ticket and reasoned that
only one of us was guilty "
and that we would just go
ahead and pay his fine
without appealing his case.
I told this to the court on
ly to get handed back the
line they did not know who
was right and who was
wrong so I would have to
pay anyway.
The dollar is not going to
make me go broke. My
point is this, why even have
an appeals court if it does
not do us any good? Ask
around, see if your friends
have ever gotten off by ap
pealing their cases.

Drinking
Dear Editor:
After reading the article
concerning the IFC and fra
ternity drinking, I definitely
felt the subject deserved a
further comment.
First of all, our society
today is such that drinking
is a s o c i a 1 1 y acceptable
standard. D u e to t h e ex
ample of the parents, child
ren most generally grow up
in a surrounding of alcholic
beverages which have been
forbidden to them. Some
times between the ages of
fifteen and seventeen the
normal American teenager
takes his "first drink."
With this background how
can he stop when he enters
college? Evidently not! He
has already set his norm
and drinking is part of the
curriculum of his s o c 1 a 1
activities.
I think we are all broad
minded enough to see this.

my fellow students.
