FEDERAL RELATION 10
E
Dr.
Fred Kelly Points Out
Four Spheres of
Influence.
Four spheres of federal rela
tions to education were defined
Tuesday evening by Dr. Fred
Kelly, chief of the division of
higher education at Washington,
in an address sponsored by the
American Association of Univer
sity Frofessors at the Grand hotel.
The four divisions are: 1, federal
government influences in deter
mining the term "public" in public
education; 2. federal government
influences in developing the sys
tem of land grant colleges and uni
versities, 3, federal government
influence in developing a program
to meet the gap between the high
school and the college unemployed
youth problem; and 4. federal gov
ernment influences in adult educa
tion. "The coming on of 2,225,000
people each year out of schools
with no adequate provisions, no
places for them to secure, no
chance for a toe hold in industry,
is a serious problem confronting
this government today and has
been particularly during the last
10 or 15 years. Twelve millions
have come out in the industries
since 1929 and surveys would lead
to the conclusion that three and
one-half boys alone are still seek
ing employment."
Dr. Kelley pointed out that the
government has provided three
agencies in an attempt to take
care of these people. They are the
CCC camps which serve the needs
of over 300,000 young men. the
Student Aid program, which pays
students about $25 a month. The
United States is the only country
in the world that makes students
work their way thru college and
does not give scholarships of fed
eral money. The third agency is
the National Youth Administration
that has been given 50 million dol
lars by the government for the
furtherance of education.
The speaker, a graduate of the
university in 1902. is the author of
several well known books and for
years has been recognized as a
leading authority on problems of
higher education.

Advises in Recent Magazine Article
Latest of the cures for 1 lie pangs of a wallflower consist of
no Youth ami Hcauty Soap nor even a book on '"They Laughed
When " hut rather a novel pastime which allows you to read
the eharncters of those you see on the floor by the way they
dance. In fact Arthur Murray says, in a recent issue of the
American magazine that the besto
way to pick out your life partner
is by watching him dance.
And so, when you see the man
who meets all qualifications in his
dancing, don't try to dance with
him. Trv to marry him, or at
least that is Mr. Murray's advice,
for men who stride out, try new
steps and fancy steps, and race
with the music usually make the
best companions. And girls who
fall Into their partner's moods and
travel with them make the best
wives.

363 U. S. A. Students
At German Universities
NEW YORK, Nov. 12. German
colleges and universities extended
their hospitality to 4.464 foreign
students during the winter sem

increase of eighty-four over the
summer semester 1934. The
United States held second place

Tho most people insist that a
person's soul "shines out thru his
face," Mr. Murray says that it
shines out thru his feet. It takes
a good character to dance well. A
good dancer must adjust himself
to his partner, and it takes intelli
gence and character to do that."
There are a few things which a
character reader on the dance floor
always watches. One of these is
the wav a man points r.i toes. Men
who point their toes gracefully are
usually in love with themselves. A'l

Publication Plans Uncover
Party Sentiment on
Campus.
BALLOTS IN NEWSPAPER
Editor Fischer Hopes Tie-Up
Project With Political
Debates.
What does the student elee
tornte think of the New Deal?
While both political parties
are oiling their duelling pieces
for the coming campaign, the
Daily Nebraskan will uncover
party sentiment on the Nebraska
campus in the near future with a
poll, not on party choice, but on
the major issues of the next elec
tion. Modeling the system after those
used by both national and college
publications in the past, voting
will be accomplished through bal
lots printed in the Nebraskan. Al
tho the idea is not new and has
proved itself of definite value in
every major campaign, the Ne
braskan is foremost among col
lege dailies in initiating such a
poll this year.
Tie-up with the political de
bates, which is now a project of
the Student Council, is planned
by Editor Jack Fischer. Accord
ing to the Council convocations
committee, outstanding represen
tatives of each party will be en
gaged in a debate over the merits
of New Deal policies, the bonus,
danger threatening the Constitu
tion, legality of the processing
law, continuance of the AAA. n:ii
similar issues.
Controversial articles, news of
student political activities on llxi
campus, presidential possibility
sketches, and other feature mate
rial will accompany the straw
vote. Another poll of political
preference is being conducted by
the Literary Digest, according to
advance reports, but no collabora
tion is contemplated by ths
sponsors.
