Picture of Nebraska's New Capitol
Adorns Cover of Magazine

Attractive indeed, is the picture of
Nebraska's new capitol, which adorn1
the June issue of the University Jour
nal publication for Cornhusker alumni.
In the number are pictures of the Ivy
day exercises, one of Kenneth Mc
Candless, Ivy day orator, in the act of
delivering his address and one of Miss
Grace Stuff, May queen, her maid of
honor and the attendants. A full page
group of snaps taken on the last day
of the Cornhusker Roundup showing
pictures of the parade, the baseball
game and other events is of general
interest.
In addition to these, the Journal
also contains photos of Robert G. Sim
mons, '15, of Scottsbluff, the retiring
president of the association, and E.
D. Perry, '90, of Lincoln, who will on
July 1, assume the leadership of the
alumni association.
A partial list of the alumni who
attended the first annual Cornhusker
roundup contains the names of many
who were present at the roundup. It
is hoped that a complete list can soon
be prepared. Editorial comment, a re
port of Cornhusker athletics, campus
news, reports of the officers, the an
nual report of the secretary, who's
who, and news of the classes makes
up an extremely interesting journal.
UNIVERSITY TO HELP
PLANNING0F CITIES
Municipaltiea of Nebraska To Be
Given Service in Regard to Civic
Problems
Due to a growing demand on the
part of the municipalities of the Gtate
for information and advice of a gen
eral nature, the conservation and sur
vey division of the university has or
ganized a city planning division for
the dissemination of information in
matters relating to municipal improve
ment. This service will be made available
to municipalites, commercial and
civic organizations through the col
lection of information, investigations,
conferences, lectures'. Exhibits, bul
letins, and answers to inquiries. These
functions are to be advisory only, and
it is not the purpose of the depart
ment to invade the field of the profes
sional man in the technical field.
It is only in recent years that city
nlanninc has been !rosnized as a
great work, and only very gradually
have civic organizations and mere
public-spirited citizens. generally,
awakened to the recognition of the
vital importance of the comprehensive
city plan as a means of directing ana
cuidinc the future , development oi
communities. A very large rart of
tho work of the department will, there
fore, consist of meeting with council
boards, city planning committees and
business and civic organizations in
terested in city development: and
through these promote more logical
procedure in such development by the
preparation of general comprene'isive
plans.
Kearnev is the first city in the state
to se'k such extensive service and
has already undertaken the prenara-
tinii of mans to be used in compiling
basic data in formulating a general
city plan.
Professor M. I. Evinger will have
direct charge of the city planning
department in addition to his other
duties as associate professor of civil
engineering in the college of engineer
ing. Professor Evinger has had con
siderable experience in municipal im
provement work and during the war
