Prof. David Fellm an Returns
From Leave in Wisconsin
BY MARY ALICE LEHR.
Pursuing David Fellman to his
domestic retreat from the student
body and poll. scl. majors proved
to be a profitable excursion Sat
urday afternoon, for by doing so
I learned that during his one year
leave of absence from his duties
in the department of political sci
ence, Professor Fellman has been
acting as lecturer in his chosen
field at the University of Wiscon
sin, Madison, Wisconsin. His leave,
which expired the fore part of this
month, was granted to aid Wiscon
sin university in staffing its po
litical science department.
Civilian Classes.
At Madison Mr. Fellman's
classes were composed entirely of
civilian students, both undergrad
uates and graduates, even though
the campus was densely populated
with service men and women.
In response to an Inquiry re
garding his favorite class during
his work at Wisconsin, Professor
Fellman laid that he particularly

enjoyed a course especially planned
and designed to fit the present war
period, United States at War.
"I am somewhat in doubt as to
how enlightening the undergrad
uate found this course; personally
I found It extremely so."
Large Number of Trainees.
One thing most decidedly im
pressed the professor. It was the
vast number of persons being
trained in the campus war time
training program.
Wisconsin was, at the time Mr.
Fellman left Its campus, peopled
with A.S.T.P. men, WAVES, "fe
male" Marines, area and foreign
language students, meteorology
pupils, and also a large group of
Navy boys pursuing courses in the
field of code. It is his opinion that
Wisconsin is more heavily com
mitted to the war program and
earlier organized Itself to accom
modate thla program than did
Nebraska.
LET'S SEND 'EM A DAILY!
War Council in collaboration with the Daily Nebraskan
will publish and mail copies of the Daily Nebraskan weekly
to former university men now in the armed forces, replacing
the former "Rags-Tags" service.
Roberta Burgess is the representative of War Council in
charge of the service. Coeds may register to address the "Hags
for Servicemen" as their three hours of required war work at
the all-university war work registration which will be next
week.
Workers Sign Up.
Registrants should have a little typing ability and free
hours between 1 and 5 on Thursday or Friday afternoons, or
9 and 12 Saturday mornings. A preliminary meeting will bu
held Friday, October 8, at 5 p. m. in Room 16 of the Union
Council Holds
First Meeting
Tonight at 5
First meeting of the Student
Council will be held tonight at 5
o'clock in room 313 of the Union,
according to Jean Cowden, co-
chairman of this governing body
of the UN students.
Any student can attend the
meeting which has been called to
outline the council's work for the
coming year. Non-member stu
dents may speak if recognized by
the chair, but they will have no
part in voting.
Holdover members from last
year's council include Jean Cow
den and Lois Christie, co-chair
man. Jane Fenton and Herb Wil
liams, all affiliated, and Dorothy
Mae Anderson and David Simon-
son, unaffiliated. Professor E. W,
Lantz is the faculty advisor of the
organization.
Navy Will Invade

Twenty-three former Nebraska

to continue their education here

They will be in uniform soon, but

"Fundamentally the two Institu
tions, the Universities of Wiscon
sin and Nebraska, are the same
There are two differences which 1
did especially notice. Wisconsin
has a much larger group of grad
uate students taking work in its
graduate college than doea Ne
braska. As far as that goes the
graduate college is one of the out
standing colleges in the school
The other difference lies in the
student body itself."
Mr. Fellman then went on to ex
plain that it is his belief that the
students on the Nebraska campus
are a decidedly more homogeneous
group, more commonly sharing
the same background, interests
and aspirations, than the more
cosmopolitan and diversified group
at the University of Wisconsin
For this reason he observes that
the group at N.U. is a more har
monious unit presenting a simpler
and less complex student adjust
ment problem to the university

Anyone who wishes to assist in
addressing and mailing these
copies of the Daily Nebraskan to
the NU servicemen must attend
this meeting.
Last year, "Rags-Tags" was a
mimeographed summary of im
portant events at the university
and V-Mail clippings and was
mailed to the UN servicemen
twice a month under the super
vision of Margaret Beede. "Rags-
Tags" became so popular, that the
War Council decided to enlarge
their service by sending a
o m p 1 e t e copy of the Daily
Nebraskan weekly to every ex
Cornhusker in the service.
It is hoped that the Daily will
keep the servicemen in contact
with their former associates and
activities on the Nebraska cam
pus. With football and other ma
jor sports still on the university
athletic program, the "Rags for
Servicemen " will provide informa
tion on the major sport3 event
for these still loyal Nebraskans.

similar to that offered by the
Student Union corn crib but on

Amos. "There will be self serv
ice instead of the city campua
table service.""

kinds of sandwiches. Milk shakes,
malts, cokes and coffee can be
ordered in addition to sundaes.
