A sizeable increase in the budget of the University of
Nebraska this was one of the chief items recommended
by the state legislature's Appropriations Committee last
Monday in its report to the unicameral body.
The committee's recommendation comes as welcome
news to the University, climaxing as it does a long struggle
for increased appropriations for UN. .If the legislature ap
proves the committee's recommended budget, as seems
likely, the University will receive $8,880,660 for operating
expenses for the next two years, an increase of $1,106,215
over the closing biennium and $590,600 more than recom
mended by Governor Criswold in his initial budget message
to the unicameral

He is now visiting friends on the campus.

Greatest immediate benefit that the University wiUiPbious engineering work in connection
derive from this increased appropriation undoubtedly lies
in the salary increases which it will now be possible to
grant faculty members. Long underpaid, UN staff mem
bers will at last be started on the upward road to a just
salary level. The $176,860 annual increase in faculty sa
laries will do much to raise them to the level at which they
belong, help assure a competent satisfied instructional
staff.
But perhaps the most cheering note of all the increased
budget lies in the fact that the people of the state, and
particularly the state legislature, seem at last to be waking
to the fact that the University needs more money, much
more money, if it is to remain a first-rate educational in-sitution.
Both Sides . . .
Should sororities and fraternities be abolished?
This perennial question has once again risen to plague
colleges and universities all over the country. Instigation
for the flood of discussion pro and con which is currently
raging was the Woman's Home Companion article "Heart
break on the Campus," written by Mrs. Glenn Frank, wife
of the late president of the University of Wisconsin and 'a
sorority woman herself. In her article, appearing in the
April issue of the magazine, Mrs. Frank urged the abolition
of Greek letter societies and, incidently, touched off a pow
derkey of discussion.
The Nebraskan does not propose to take any editorial
stand on the issue, but it does propose to use its columns
with an attack transport and also keeping
up a sideline of ship s photographic officer.
LAIRD FISHER, Phi'Delt, has arrived
overseas and has taken up his duties at a
15th AAF B-24 Liberator bomber base in
Italy. He has been assigned to a veteran
group which is materially aiding Russian
armies striking into Austria.

Doubtless most of you have seen Suianne
Pope running around campus with an ace
of a shiner. Also Betty King with two
skinned knees. It all came about as a re-i
suit of the campus YWCA the "Y Women
Can't Adventure" group. Said group took
an excursion to the wild country, namely
the WAA cabin, and apparently there was
adventure, for Suzy and Bets have scars to
prove it. Something about falling off a bi
cycle, they said.

Mattoon, isVeally living up to the Christian
ideals of the YWCA. Now take notice

AWS president Midge Holtzscherer was late
getting to court Friday, so the board sug
gested that Mattoon, as vice president, take
over hearing and passing judgement on
cases until Midge got there. After the first
case had been heard, the coed was sent out
of the room while the board deliberated over
her punishment. Some of the board mem
bers suggested a campus of two week ends
while others thought that one weekend of
three nights was enough Mattoon brought
the serious-minded court to near hysterics
with following remark, in the midst of the
haggling over the length of the campus:
"But this just isn't the Christian attitude!"
