Dr. Lowry C. Wimberly Receives
Recognition From Eastern Critic
By HARRY FOSTER.
"White Man's Town," by Dr.
Lowry Chnrles Wimberly, p'rotcs
sor of Knglish in the University of
Nebraska, has achieved the ilis
tinction of being onr of the best
stories of the year. This story,
which deals with the problem of
race prejudice, is ir.cluded in Ed
ward J. O'Brien's "Best Short
Stories of 1931."
Loudon Kelley in the Rocky
Mountain News, of Denver, Colo'.,
says that "White Man s Town" is
the best story includid in O'Brien's
book.
"This story," Kelley wrote, "is
ioiu introspect ively, related in a i
rambling but gripping manner bv
a convict condemned to die -to a
capital visiter."
Professor Wimberly had two
stories receive the three star rat
ing on O'Brien's "honor roll" t.iis
year. In speaking of the requi
sites that a story must have to
appear upon his honor roll O'Brien
says, "J have recorded the names
of a small group of stories which
possess, I believe, this fine distinc
tion of uniting genuine substance
and artistic form in a closely
woven pattern with such sincerity
that these stories may fairly claim
a position in American literature."
"Apropts of Asses," whicn ap
peared in the March issue of Harp
ers' was the other story to receive
a three star ratine. Prnfes
Wimberly feels thai he accom
plished more in this story than he
did in "White Man s Town" be
cause it was much more difficult
to portray a story with a univer
sity setting and with university
people as characters.
Contributors Mentioned.
Four contributors to the "Prairie
Schooner" of which Professor
Wimberly is editor, received rec
ognition In O'Brien's book by hav
ing stories placed on the list of
"Distinctive Short Stories." The
writers thus honored were Edythe
Squire Draper, Evalene Parsons
Jackson, Cornelius Mullenburg,
and Frederick Christensen.
In speaking of the events lead
ing to the writing o; "White Man's
To.vn" Professor Wimberly stated
that he was at thj time working
on a short story that had as its
theme the practice of black magic.
"White Man's Town was an off
shoot of this one. One paragraph
gave him the inspiration and he
developed it into the story. It took
him Hbout two days to complete
the story after he once got stai Ud.
"White Man's Town" appeared
in the March number of the Forum
at the same time that "Apropos
of Asses" appeared in Harper's
magazine.
"While Man's Town" has as a
setting a small town in Missouri
where the populace is prejudiced
against negroes. The teller of the
story is imprisoned and condemned
to die because of the slaying of
his sister, which he attempts to
j justify. Tie main character of
the story is the teller's best friend,
and as the plot evolves the teller
j of the story is led to believe that
; his friend has negro blood in his
veins.
His sister is with child and so
i the brother kills her to save her
the agony of learning that her
child wouid have colored blood.

story and the intensity of the un

Professor Wimberly has not lim

the short story but has also had
published articles and essays.
The Growler
KOSTfclt
I'm sitting. People usually do
when they type (or peck, as it is
in my easel. I'm puffing (People
usually do when they smoke
pipes). I like to sit. I like to puff,
also. The aroma from my hod
may not be pleasant to those who
aren't used to it. It smells good
to me. I like the taste of it, too.
It's an individual taste. There are
times when anybody can think.
When your mowing the yard, or
raking leaves is a good time.
When your taking a shower, or
better still floating in a bath tub.
The best time for me is when I'm
sitting and puffing. I puff a lot
and I sit a lot but I don't do the
two together enough. Anybody
that advocates a prohibition an
tobbaco is silly. Tobacco has a
soothing effect. It aids in concen
tration. It quiets the nerves. It
is enjoyable, muchly. I like it.
w v m
The Kansas Aggie riot of two
years ago is still on my mind. I've
formulated the opinion that the
reason for the dormant Nebraska
spirit must be the result of that
outburat. Too big a dose at one
time. Rallies should be spread out
and they should culminate in the
all-important game. In spite of
what has been said the Aggie riot
was spontaneous. It wasn't an
example of true Nebraska spirit
anyhow. What we should do, as
supporters of the scarlet and
cream, Is to be Rock of Gibraltars
permanent. The team needs our
support. It is an important factor
in their success. Two teams are
about equal physically. The dif
ference lies in the coaching and in
the mental attitude of the team.
This is what makes football the
king of sports. When Northwes
tern meets Notre Dame the school
ing of the two teams and the
knowledge of football are equiva
lent. The mental attitude then de
termbiM the winner. The mental
attitude of the team is determined
by the support that the s tudent
body gives. The conclusion is,
then, that a winning team is a
winning team because of the sup
port given it by the student body.
If you want a victorious team get
behind it do your part, you're the
twelfth man on the field.
One of the most, disgusting
things about sports writers is their
insistance in playing up the coach
instead of the team. Some sages
of the press term the Cornhuskers
"Bibleites" or "Biblemen" or han
dles of a similar nature. The team
deserves the credit. The coach is
an essential cog in the football
machine but the players should go
by the name that tradition has
given them. I'm sure that the
coaches don't cherish that kind of
publicity and that they feel the
same way that I do about it.
i
It was a dirty trick. I mean the
one pulled by some bounder who
annexed a set of mid-term exam
papers handed in .by students in
Professor Gray's class in English
j constitutional history. And now
the whole class is going to have
to take the examination over. For
some of them it will be good news,
for others not so good .
The Alpha Thets not only got a
first place out of the "On to Man
hattan Contest" but they also got
a basement full of ice-boxes. It
seems that they discovered some
people who were buying refrigera
tors but weren't to have them in
stalled for a week or two. In or
der to get credit for the orders
the ice-boxes had to be out of the
store before the contest ended last
Wednesday so the Alpha Thets
simply swung open the basement I
doors ard had the ice-boxes movea
in for storage.
According to reports the stu
dents have read their last Kollege
Roomer. The downtown store
which has been publishing it has
discontinued the bulletin, it is said.

Another Experiment in
Education.
(Purdue Exponent.)
Syracuse University in New
York has added its name to that
list of colleges and universities, ex
perimenting with groups of stu
dents jn an effort to discover the
most effective and efficient means
of teaching young men and women.
It has selected twenty of the most
brilliant members of its freshmen
class in the liberal arts to partici
pate in what is to be known as the
tutorial survey course.
Differing from existing courses
at Syracuse both in subject mat
ter and in methods of instruction,
this course has been designed for
students of outstanding ability and
cultural interests. Approximately
three-fifths of the student's time
which would normally be spent in
the recitation room will be his
own. This time will be given over
to supervised reading courses that
will involve a study of the success
ive phases of civilization. The sur
vey will be conducted under a tu
torial system, in which each stu
dent will be assibned a tutor who
will guide his work and give him
individual help and supervison.
There will be a private conference
of at least one hour each week.
There will be no requirements of
attendance at lectures, recitations
and classes. Apart from a few
hours given to an essay and the
conference, the time will be free
for readings.
Keith Miller, a member of the
state water survey during the
summer, has been placed in charge j
