THE NEBRASKAN
UN Benefits from Donations
Received During Past Month
During the p.'ist month the university has
been the recipient of $12,000 in donations from
alumni and Lincoln business men. Four dona
tions have been received by the university
foundation, one to be used by the agricultural
college, one for the engineering college, the
third, a gift to the Herbert Hrownell science
education fund", and the fourth to be used for;
scholarships as the university sees fit.
In honor of the late Charles Stuart, out
standing Lincoln and Nebraska businessman,
his sons have created a 'f'.'S.OOO scholarship fund
to be used by ;ig college. Throughout his life
Mr. Stuart took a profound interest in the af
fairs of his alma mater. His sons, Charles jr.
and James, could have paid hini no greater
tribute than to set up a memorial to their
father, a fund which will benefit one of his
greatest interests.
Col. A. A. Dobson in donating: $5,000 to the
university in memory of his father, the late
Adna Dobson, well known city and state en
gineer, stipulated that the money be used for
scholarships in the engineering- college, par
ticularly to benefit civil engineering, or to aid
in retaining worthy men on the staff. The lat
ter is particularly significant. A few hundred
dollars a year may mean the difference be
tween keeping and the losing of a valuable
instructor.
Lt. Col. Dobson graduated from the univer
sity in 1911. He was one of the first to donate
to the Student Foundation scholarship fund
and was the recipient of the distinguished
service award given by the university and the
Alumni Association in 1942.
Cius Prestagaard, Lincoln businessman, has
made the university thru the foundation a gut
of $1,000 to be used as university officials see
fit and an alumnus who desires to remain
anonymous, former student of popular Her
bert IJrcwnell, has donated a like amount to
the Herbert l?rownell science education fund.
Educators and scholars have emphasised
often the necessity of promoting- education so
that there will be a sufficient number of edu
cated men and women 'to assume the job of
reconstruction after the firing- ceases. Even
today men are coming back from "over there"
with honorable discharges and are wanting to
continue their education. To these and the
thousands of others who will be returning
these scholarships will be a means of rehabili
tation into a better life.

"I think the thing I mist most of ll over here
it music. Another officer and melf bought an

Lt. Strains of "There is No Place Like Nebraska"
float out these dark, blacked-out night. Seems sort
of out o'f place. Would like to hear some gooJ
Christmas music. But there doesn't seem to be
any chance. However we're thinking of starting a
quartet in the Regiment the officers, I mean.
That will help. Heard lots of Italian music while in

opera like we do modern tunes in the States.'

Dear Editor:

glance. Why i"t give him a key to the campust There are
basketball games and dances, shows and parties he always used
to attend but is barred from this year because his activities
ticket is old. . ,
This project would involve the cooperation of the student
TTin nnA thf. iithletie. department mostly, and there seems
little doubt that it would succeed. The former student would
