Led To
A background of many lan
guages and an interest in peo
ple and their folk songs have
ied to a hobby for Dr. Anil
Ghosh, post-doctoral research
fellow in chemistry. Dr. Ghosh
is putting folk songs and in
terviews of foreign students
on tape. This is "strictly a
Sunday operation," he com
mented. Sunday Interviews
Three or four students and
two or three interviewers
meet at his home on Sundays
to make the tapes. So far he
has 44 countries represented
on his tapes but expects to
get "more than 60".
Dr. Ghosh became interest
ed in doing the interview and
folk song tapes because his
background had introduced
him to many languages and
cultures. He was born in Ben
gal, now East Pakistan, and
was brought up with the As
samese, although his native
tounge is Bengali.
Multi-Lingual Background
Universities in India are
taught in English (British
English, he pointed out), but
he also studied German,
French, and Russian. This
multi-lingual background in
troduced him to the folk
songs which he has found so
interesting.

growing development in music

a foremost authority of the
Orff method, appears under
the auspices of the Univer

Open To All
The three-day program, be

auditorium, will be open at no
charge to all persons who
have an interest in helping
children to learn and appreci

Dorothy Kozak, assistant
professor of music education
at the University and program
coordinator, said the Orff
method appears to be sweep
ing the country and within a
few years is expected to revo
lutionize the introduction of
music to children, especially
the very young.
German Technique
The method, named after
Carl Orff, one of Germany's
best known composers who
started the movement, differs
in part from the traditional
technique in that children are
encouraged to create their
own music. The method in

plained. "Music educators are be
ginning to find, in the method,
the opportunity to decrease
the number of music drop

bored with antiquated, tradi

many more children with
music," she said.
Professor Kozak explained
that more and more graduates
of schools of music in the na

"My first call was in East
Lincoln," Campbell recalled
hesitantly. "A little girl had
just suffocated."
Know About Life
"You just have to see things
like that for yourself," he
said, "This is the type of job
every educated person should
have if he wants to know
what life is really like."
"The Lincoln Police Depart
ment is much more lenient
than the police in my home
town of Seattle, Washington,"
Campbell noted.
"Here, they take time to talk
to you. Back home, if someone
gave them any lip, they'd just
haul him to jail."

Typical Day
A typical day for the new
patrolmen begins at 2:30 p.m.
when they assemble down
stairs at police headquarters
for the "lineup." Here, they
are told what calls have been
broadcast earlier and what to
look for while on patrol.

what he looks for on patrol

IFC Rush Book Editor
Fraternities, rush and IFC
in general 'have a history dat
ing back to the year of 1776,
when the first Ureek letter se
cret society began.
Phi Beta Kappa, now an
honorary, became the fore
father of the modern Greek
system, when five William &
Mary students pledged them
selves to the formation of a
fraternity with brotherhood,
morality and literature
as their principles. Although
it had many of the character
istics of its modern descend
ants, Phi Beta Kappa grad
ually emerged into an honor
ary organization.
Social Fraternity
Nearly fifty years later, in
1825, another group of stu8
dents ait Union College banded
together in a secret brother
hood which was purely social
in nature. Kappa Alpha So
ciety grew and matured and
is now the oldest surviving
general college fraternity.
Soon, other students im
presseed by the ideals and
principles of a close fraternity
association founded compet
ing groups. Sigma Phi and
Delta Phi, both organized in
1827 joined with Kappa Alpha
Society to form the well-known
Union Triad.
In the following year, imi
tation of, or opposition to
these three fraternities, ac
counted for the extablishment
of nearly all the general fra
ternities now in existence to
day. There are over sixty na
tional fraternities with over
a million men serving in all
walks of life.
Fraternities at NU
Only six years passed after
the chartering of the Univer
sity of Nebraska before
fraternities were bom at NU
with the arrival of Phi Delta
Theta in 1875 and Sigma Chi
in 1883.
By 1888 Nebraska had six

especially anything unusual

Each new patrolman is as
signed to work with a veteran
officer in charge of a certain
district. They work as a team
in checking out calls and
complaints, monitoring traf
fic, investigating accidents
and domestic problems, and
checking business establish
ments. Personnel Officer, Capt.
Dale A. Adams, who hired
the seven Huskers noted that
most of their work is devoted
to non-traffic matters. "They
keep their eyes open quite a
bit," he said. "I'm sure
there's more to it than they
ever imagined."

Greek houses which furnished
students with the nearest ap-
proaoh to dormitory living
plus a fraternal relationship.
The most noteworthy contri
bution of these early houses
was their invitation to Kappa
Gamma, asking the Kappa's
to colonize on the NU campus,
thus beginning the sorority
system.
Although condemned by the
then - powerful literary so
cieties as being undemocratic,
fraternities at NU grew and
prospered to the present
twenty-seven chapters with
over 1800 men all represented
by the Inter-Fraternity Coun
cil (IFC).
IFC Conceived
The IFC was conceived in
1902 to discuss mutual prob
lems and has since grown in
responsibility and stature.
The IFC is operated and fi
nanced entirely by the under
graduate fraternities at Ne
braska and works to increase
the system's unity through
Greek Week and other special
alKJreek projects.
Each house is represented
on the IFC and the represen
tatives elect the executive
board who organize and run
IFC for the coming year. To
help solve problems and pro
pose improvements, the Coun
cil maintains various perma
nent committees on rush,
publications, scholarship, af
fairs, publicity and expansion.
In recent years, through the
work of these committees and
its officer s, the IFC has
stepped up its pace and
attacked some of the weak
spots in the Greek system. To
insure the Greek community's
future, the IFC took a firm
stand against drinking at
house sponsored functions
and raised academic stand
ards for participation in Rush
Week and pledging.
The IFC also has a junior
twin, the Junior IFC or
Pledge Council, which
Adams first entered police
work under the same pro
gram in the summer of 1946
47. At the time he was play
ing football for the Nebraska
squad under Coach Bernie
Masterson.

Police Chief Joseph Carroll,

placements about 25 years

workings of the fraterni
ty system. The representa
tives and officers are chosen
in the same manner as the
IFC's.
While accomplishing its pur
pose, of serving as a train
ing ground for its senior coun
terpart, the Junior IFC's ac
tivities included publish
ing the Sorority Row Book
and 'Get out and vote' cam
paign' during the elections in
1964. The final major activity
of the Junior IFC takes place
the following year, when the
representatives and officers
aid in the operation ot t n e
IFC's Rush Week.
One of the largest and most
imiDortant oroiects of the IFC,
Rush Week starts school off
on a fast tempo and is a
period of quick and lasting
decisions for mm nouses ana
rushees.
Rush Supplement
SuDDlementine formal Rush
Week is "summer rush", a
Droeram which each fraterni
ty participates in voluntarily
from June to August. Each
house holds several parties
during this period, inviting
rushees from the surrounding
area, which enables the men
in the house and the rushees
to become better acquainted.
The Summer Rush program
is an aid to both the houses
and the rushees, allowing
both of them more contacts
with each other before they
make their final decisions
during Rush Week and the
final night of pledging.
Rush Week
Rush Week lasts for five
days starting on September 3
when all rushees move into

celebrate a successful Rush
