The cameraman, in these two shots, caught a small portion of the 4,676 students who enrolled for classes at UN Thursday morning. In the picture at
the left are five coeds who seem to be enjoying the return to campus life. Left to right, they are Janice Suckstorf, Valdene Heese, Jane Griffin, Shirley
Hopkins, and Eleanor Marcy. The picture at the right, whose subjects bear an amazing resemblance to members of an African Safari, really shows a com

Organizing Advisory Committee . . .
Regents, Legislature Initiate
Nebraska Chemurgy Project
Invitations have boon sent to 74
Nebraska men representing va
rious interests in the state to form
an advisory committee for the
newly formed chemurgy project
which has been set up by the
board of regents and the legisla
ture. The project, headed by Dr. Lee
L. Christensen, is to discover what
Nebraska farm products can be
utilized into profitable industries.
Working primarily with plastics
and synthesized products, the Ne
braska chemurgists are mainly in
terested in the possible use of
Nebraska's grain sorghums in the
starch and fermentation indus
tries. Included in the survey will be
an examination of the needs of
the defense program in order to
determine what kind of industries
can work successfully in the state
and what other states climatically
and agriculturally the same, are
doing in this field.
The committee is composed of
men representing the various in
dustries in Nebraska who will,
through correspondence, relay in
formation pertinent to the project
to the executive committee headed
by C. Y. Thompson of West Point,
university regent.
Thompson stated, "It is especial
ly desirable that the advisory com
mittee members forward to the
chemurgy project office all the
suggestions they may have about
the scope of the work undertaken.
In this way the program may be
made of the greatest use to the
people of the state."
A permanent office with labora
tory facilities is now occupied by
Dr. Christensen in experiment sta
tion hall on ag campus. Dr. Chris
tensen is a recognized leader in
chemurgy both in the university
and industrial fields. He was
granted a leave of absence from
the University of Idaho, where he
is chairman of the department of
agriculture chemistry, to do re
search here.
Other members of the executive
committee appointed by the board
of. regents are: Senator John S.
Callan of Odell, president of the
legislative council: Chet G. Mar
shall of Arlington, president of
the Nebraska Progress associa
tion; Carlyle Hodgkin of Lin
coln, farm editor for the Omaha
World-Herald; and Frank Robin
son, Kearney stockman. Dr. Chris
tensen is executive secretary for
this committee.
The stated purpose of the spe
cial appropriation provided by the
55 legislature of Nebraska in L. B
With 74 Outstate Men
