THE NEBRASKAN
Thursday, April II, 1946
I dcfA,
BY PAT GILLIGAN.
What with rain outside and
gloom inside we find it hard to
be sharp our wits are dulled.
Who are we kidding! ! !
Saturday night the Delts come
out of their "sacred shelter'' (from
the song of the same words)
to present their annual alumni
dinner dance at the Cornhusker.
Dining and dancing will be Betty
Ileckenlively with Jim Ward
Dick Bogan again to be seen with
Mary Claire Clark while Kay
Bngan enjoys herself with her
"Bobbie" Keller.
Symphony.
Taking in the symphony Tues
day night cultured Fig Flagg
and steady, Margie Munson
Ann Phillips with Bill Fenton
and Mary Lou Holtz with "pin
mate for a day," Perry Branch.
That is a recordbreaker.
Another Formal.
Donning formals to attend the
Theta party Friday night will be
Dorothy Bennison with Dick
Brigham of her old high school
crowd Jo Moyer chose her man
ot the moment. Charles Ander
son. Also enjoying the affair will
be Lee Casey and Nancy Lawlor,
seen together lreauently Jan
Johnson with Ralph Sears and
Di:k Hunter with "Blondie"

No Democracy.
(3) "The Far East has never
had a semblance of democracy,
no S'J -government, only one man
or class dictatorships. Peace has
been the exception, not the rule."
(4) "The great mass of people
are illiterate. In India the peo
ple want independence but they
are not prepared for it. If the
British withdraw without placing
a substitute in power the worst
civil war in world history seems
likely."
One-Party.
(5) "In China the government
is a one-paity dictatorship reek-
irg with bribery and racketeerin," ;
which is concerned about Russii
and Britain instead of its own in
effi?iency."
(6) "In Japan, Mac-Arthur is
getting nowhere in distributing
the land and breaking up indus
trial monojKilies. Provisions of the
new constitution which forbid
Japan to maintain an army and
declare war will probably be re
voked at the first opportunity."
(7) "We think we have set a
model in the Philippines but we
have sown the seeds for a poten
tial civil war by leaving a wealthy
class in control of the land and
indu-try. The economic system,
tied to America's, just won't
work."
UN Science
Grads Rank
High on List
That scientist who makes the
morning headlines may very well
be a Nebraska graduate, if read
ers are to consider the ranking
given the university by the cur
rent edition of "American Men
of Science."
. Only four schools ranked above
Nebraska in the number of gradu
ates listed in the volume. The
honor is conferred upon outstand
ing research scientists by a se
cret vote of fellow scientists pre
viously selected for the distinc
tion. In the seventh rating since
1903, which was announced re
cently, 256 research men were
named.
Nebraska Ties.
Of this group, 194 graduated
from American colleges, 12 of
them from the University of Chi
cago. Harvard and the University
of California tied with ten each,
Yale had eight. Nebraska, Stan
ford and Wisconsin tied for fourth
with seven scientists each. Seventy-nine
schools had one, two
or three graduates listed.
Nebraska alumni honored are:
Botany Ernest G. Anderson, '15,
and Frederick A. Wolf, '07; chem
istry L. A. Brockway. '29. and
Randolph T. Major, '22; psychol
ogy J. P. F. Guilford, '22, and
E. R. Guthrie, '07; zoology G. W.
Beadle, '26.
The number placed in each field
of science by the University of
Nebraska alumni ranked; Tie for
first with Stanford university in
psychology, a tie Tor first in chem
istry with five other universities,
and a tie for second in botany
with the University of Chicago and
Harvard university.
