Facts About CORE..
Student interest has been aroused of late concerning
a comparatively new group which has been formed on the
campus, namely CORE. Dedicated to the promotion of
racial equality, the group has recently been brought into
the foreground by definite court action in regard to one of
Lincoln's skating rinks.
The skating rink refuses admittance to Negroes, and
CORE filed a court appeal after members of the group were
turned away from the rink on particular occasion.
The incident mentioned above is an example of the work
carried on by this group. The organization is made up of
interested students and adults, both Negro and white, in
cluding members of Urban League and several Lincoln
ministers and church leaders.
CORE, representing a Committee On Racial Equality,
has as its purpose "non-violent direct action to eliminate
discrimination" among races. The group is nationally or
ganized, similar activities being carried on in cities through
out the United States.
Membership in the organization is purely voluntary and
only those persons with a keen interest in erasing racial
discrimination are active in the group, which is in no way
connected with the university.
Student inquiry has lead to considerable discussion in
regard to the CORE'S purpose and activities. A clear state
men of its work seems the best means of clarifying the
numerous reports that have been circulating." P. L. T.
Latin Woos
Dorm Coeds
With Songs
There is a Latin across the
street from old Carrie Belle Ray
mond hall who is treating UN
coeds with Spanish serenades on
balmy spring evenings. This is
' all very fine but occasionally his
landlady rebels, bangs out of the
house, and konks him on the nog
gin with her best aluminum sauce
pan to still his vocalizing.
It's sort of a combination soap
opera, Man Mountain-Angel wres
tling match. At this point our
hero is breaking his pledge with
the back-to-the-soil movement
and is upright again, optimisti
cally resuming his music appre
ciation course. The dormites find
this all very fascinating and hang
out of all available west side win
dows and rat holes to hear the
concert. Last Tuesday night the
performance survived a two hour
tenure.
Invectives
In the meantime one either de
cided to travel by pogo-stick to
Spain and raise "muchachos" or
one dashed madly from cell to
dungeon trying to find a cosmo
politan Spanish student who knew
a delicious invective that could
be transmitted to the serenader.
Conveyed by the Able, Baker,
Charlie method or plain old oral
communication.
"Bonnie" Haney and Lou Shar
mon listened intently and then
had a pow-wow in someones
closet till late that night. They
couldn't decide whether they en
joyed most the music or the little
old landlady expressing her
saucepan indignation.
Militzer Will
Discuss Human
Life, Isotopes
- At the fifth in the series of lec
tures, "The Hard Road to a Better
World," Dr. W. E. Militzer, as

Life."
Experiments with Isotopes are
another phase of the tireless
search for achieving a longer and
more joyful life, according to Dr.
Militzer.
Intending to aid interested stu
dents to understand present condi
tions and anticipate future world
wide developments in many fields,
these authoritative lectures are
given by qualified speakers.
Dr. Militzer's lecture about the
longevity of life of the human
body and how Isotopes effect it,
will be given in the west room,
main floor, Love Memorial library.
The last holf hour will be used
for discussion from the floor.

News in a
Nutshell
BY BOB BEASON
OTTAWA Documents seized
in connection with Soviet espion
age operations in Canada have
disclosed that this country had
been used as a base to secure in
formation of great importance to
the United States and the United
Kingdom," Prime Minister W. L,
Mackenzie King told parliament
last Monday. In barring the Rus
sian espionage work, King did not
elaborate as to the nature of the
information sought in the United
States and Great Britain. At the
same time he made a strong stand
for maintenance of friendly rela
tions with the soviet government.
LONDON It has been learned
that every time Iran has sought
removal of red army troops 'dur
ing the post several months, the
Soviet Union has countered with
demands for oil concessions. Great
Britain and the United States are
reported to be opposed to any ne
gotiations between Iran and Rus
sia on oil concessions while Soviet
troops remain on Iranian soil.
SAVANNAH In an atmosphere
of apparent international harmony
Secretary of the Treatury Fred
M. Vinson Monday closed the in
augural meeting of governors of
the world fund and bank with a
declaration that they are "now
established and beginning to
breathe as living organisms."
NEW YORK In the second
speech made since he has been in
the United States, Winston
Churchill called on the United
Nations security council to
thrash out the Iranian question
and to deal with Russia's put
ting pressure on Turkey Chur'chill
said also that he does "not wish
to withdraw or modify a single
word" of his speech made recently
in Fulton, Mo.
Former President Herbert
Hoover, honorary chairman of
President Truman's famine emer
gency committee, has left for Eu
rope to survey the food needs.
The Ash Can
Marthella Holcomb
We're looking for more professors like Dr. Hall, who
told his Mental Hygiene class the best thing they could get
from the course would be to learn the names of their com
panions. Since the best way to do so, according to his
thinking, was to have a picnic or a party, he took a vote to
see which they preferred. The next warm Tuesday aft
ernoon, you'll see them setting forth on such a project. No,
we're not a member, they said a mind as dusty as ours
wasn't hygienic.
The morning after the Inter-frat ball those fellows who
had hung their pins the night before, gals who acted as tar
gets, and other low-flying' delayed-reflexexperts found they
had companions in the substratum ether. Two men were
busily painting the library flagpole, and acting as traffic di
rectors on the side. Looked, but couldn't find the safety
net, so we stayed in the gutter. It's always nice to have
something to look up to, even if it's only the sidewalk.
Reminding us of Mrs. Milquetoasts's classic retort to
Casper, "Don't you stand there making fists at me in your
pockets," is the defiant manner in which most of our re
turned classmates stalk around campus with their hands in
their pants pockets. After three years in the navy without
pockets, an ex-gob explained, he's catching up. Seems that
was the main advantage of the merchant marine for sea
minded gentry. And we thought it was just that they didn't
want to hold our hand, or they'd found no Hammus Ala
bammus for gloves. '.
Justus, our grapevine in former, has come through with
a complaint about the reader system in force in most
classes, to wit: "While the reader system is inevtiable, and
in most cases, a necessity, it should be supervised at least to
the extent that the reader doesn't take his or her friends
"out to Freddie's,", all sit around the table with stein in
hand, and each take his share of papers to be corrected
glance over them between guzzles and juke box plugging
and pass judgment on the intelligence of the masses.
This is not always the case, we realize, but it has been
done recently, and if some of the professors and department
head don't want a student petition against this form of
"exam sanction" they would do well to better surjervise
their readers." Or perhaps there are those in this institu
tion who haven't gotten back a paper with red pencil com
ments which sent their blood pressure higher than Elliott's
cupola casbah.
