Lack of Dormitory
Space Could Hurt
Teachers Colleges at
Capacity
LINCOLN Many future prob
lems are looming for the four
state teachers colleges.
Generally, however, they are of
a physical plant nature Heads of
the four colleges at Wayne, Chad
ron, Peru and Kearney feel lack
of dormitory facilities could hold
down future enrollments.
This year, the overall increase
at the schools totaled 13 percent.
State Commissioner of Educa
tion F. B. Decker, a member of
the stale normal board, which
governs the schools, said if hous
ing facilities can be provided at
the colleges, he feels enrollment
would be up more next year.
.Several students were lost this
year, Decker commented, be
cause of a shortage of housing
facilities.
Kearney's student total climbed
from 1,359 to 1,563. At Wayne,
the figures are 1,038 to 1,129 this
year; Peru went up from 466 to
580 and Chadron increased from
623 to 715.
A men’s dormitory at Peru,
built to handle 125 students, now
is housing 182 At Chadron, a
girl’s dormitory designed for 96
is housing 143.
Building plans of the colleges !
will likely be a subject for care
ful scrutiny and considerable con
troversy in the 1959 legislature.
, This is because there are indi
cations the D>ard may go directly
to the legislature for more funds,
especially to finance a new phys
ical education plant at Kearney
and a new dormitory at Chadron.
The normal schools now get a
share of the state institutional
building levy, but officials say it
is not enough to finance immed
iate construction problems at the
colleges.

153 and expects to serve a record
500 students this year, compared
with 481 last year.
In past years there were sever
al attempts to clow* the college
all of them beaten down in the
legislature.
In the last attempt, the legis
lature decided sentiment was for
retention of the school and cut it
in for a share of the state build
ing levy, to improve a run-down
physical plant.

Aeronautic* Personality—
A man who began flying in
1938 heads one of the departments
of state government fast becom
ing a key to the future of Neb
raska.
He is Rolland Harr, state aer
onautics director, and instrumen
tal in obtaining, in cooperation
with Gov. Victor Anderson’s
office, a network of local airline
service for Nebraska,
Harr has been in the aeronau
tics department since 1943, except
for a year and a half in the air
force. He was secretary of the
state aeronautics commission,
chief of safety and law enforce
ment and state airport supervis
or.
One of the keys to Harr’s suc
cess in making Nebraska a prov
ing ground for local airline ser
vice has been his selection of
staff members, among them Rush
Clarke. North Platte attorney and
a special assistant attorney gen
eral.
Clarke handled legal matters
for the department in the long
battle to get the civil aeronautics
board to ’’pull out the stops’’ and
set up a complete air network for
the state.
The department now is lining
up an extensive promotion pro
gram to keep up air passenger
and freight business on Frontier
airlines which has begun serving
the state.
Born and raised at Ainsworth,
Harr attended public schools
there and in Chadron.
Harr has been helping O’Neill
and Gordon establish airport
authorities to pave the way for
local air service by Frontier- a
commercial carrier.
He conferred with O’Neill city
officials Sunday, October 5, in pre
liminary talks relative to an O’
Neill airport authority. Two days
later the council had acted.

Republican Caravan—
Probably one of the most potent
weapons of the republican party
in Nebraska is barnstorming
throughout the state this month.
It is the GOP caravan, first
started in 1940 when the republi
cans swept to power in Nebraska
Basically, it is designed after the
old “booster” idea where towns
send representatives to surround
ing communities.
They came in with honking
horns and promotional gimmicks,
all designed to entice you to trade
in their city.
The caravan differs in that the
merchandise in campaign mater
ial and GOP officeholders who
make short speeches and shake
hands.
The caravan moves into every
county in the state. It is a dif
ficult political problem which the
democrats have not yet solved.
They made an attempt this year,
with a “Truth Float”, a car which
comes into a town after the re
publicans, straightening out the
"facts.”
The “truth float” is apparently
patterned after a technique used
nationally by the GOP. The re
publicans counterpart is the
“truth squad” which comes into
a city after a group of democrats
have gathered there to praise
their party.
It appears that this election
year Nebraskans will be subjec
ted to more than the normal
share of politicking by both par
ties.
Republicans frankly admit they
are “running scared,” the demo
i
crats say they have the best slate
of candidates and issues to offer
the voters in many years
Who triumphs will be decided
: November 4, when the voter
marches to the ballot box at the
general election.
