Season Tickets
Ready Today
For Students
Students who have purchased
season activity tickets may pick
them up today in the Coliseum,
according to athletic director A. J.
Lewandowski.
The tickets will be distributed
at tablet set up on the floor of
the coliseum (by alphabet). In
getting the tickets, students must
present their identification cards,
the receipt which was given them
when the order was taken, and
must sign a receipt for the tickets.
Block Tickets.
However, only the person who
gets the tickets for a block need
present his identification card. It
is not necessary to have the cards
for each student in the block,
Lewandowski stressed.
Beginning tomorrow, students
who did not purchase reserved
seats last week may buy their
season activity tickets in the Stu
dent Activities office of the Coli
seum. Lewandowski announced that
married students may buy stu
dent season tickets for their wives
even though they are not vet
erans. Previously it had been
stated that only veterans could
purchase tickets at student rates
for their wives, but because of
the demand, other students may
buy season tickets by presenting
the money, proof of marriage and
identification card.

To University forEducants $1 0, 000
Film Corporation Gr ationProject
Eric A. Johnston, president of
the Motion Picture Association of
America, Monday announced that
$10,000 worth of films will be
available for a University of Ne
braska education project.
Said Johnston, "the eyes of the
teaching world will be on Nebras
ka this fall when an experiment to
develop higher educational stand
ards through use of motion pic
tures in school classrooms begins
operation."
Grant.
The especially selected films
will be given to Nebraska through
the Teaching Film Custodians,
Inc., of New York. The project
recently received a $15,400 grant
from the Carnegie Corporation of
New York x help linance this
year's program.
i
Directing the experiment will be ;
a policy committee composed of;
Dr. K. O. Broadr. director of the
university extension division,
Dean F. E. Henzlik of the univer
sity's teacher's college, and Wayne
O. Reed, state superintendent of
public instruction. Former assist
ant director of the extension di
vision, Dr. Wesley Meierhenry,
has been named administrator.
Small Schools.
"Nebraska, like a good many
other states, has a system of small
secondary schools in which an
enrollment of 100 pupils and a
faculty of from three to six teach
ers is common," stated Dr. Frank
Sorenson, associate professor of
education, who is the executive
secretary of the policy committee.
"A a result," Dr. Sorenson
continued, "the standard curricu
lum is very narrow. We are
anxious that mroils in these
-craa&er schools have the same ad-1
vantage as those in more ade
quately staffed city school sys
tems.
Stimulate Interest.
Motion pictures will be intro
duced into the classroom in an
effort to (1) stimulate interest in
such broad new subjects as avia
tion, the United Nations, and the
principles of atomic energy; (2)
integrate other films into class
work to dramatize history, science,
mathematics, and other regular
studies.
In an American History course,
for example, films on the Declara
tion of Independence,' Lincoln's
Gettysburg address and other
stirring events may be shown.
Teacher-student enides to helD the
children derive the full educa
tional value of the films will be
See FILM, page 4.
