Could Flagg, Al Lagman, Bill VYIIklns Sacrifice . . . Sacrificing education to economy, the budget commit tee of the state legislature shaved enough corners to bring the university's budget for the next two years $240,000 below the request submitted by Chancellor Gustavson and the Board of Regents- That, coupled with a $164,000 slash In the appropriations for agricultural extension work, is probably sufficient to keep the university from carrying out the proposed program of extension in faculty, facilities and maintenance. The budget committee submitted their recommenda tions for the state budget to the unicameral Monday and increased the state tax levy to 6 mills to provide for the $27,669,997 estimate. Most of the state commissions and departments benefit from this increase in taxes. Those de partments whose appropritions were not increased in the 1947-49 budget recommendation will generally be aided by federal funds or by money from collection of license fees and taxes on gasoline, liquor and cigarettes. The univer sity's gain from these excise taxes will be $4,000,000, the amount requested by the chancellor. We fail to see why the budget committee decided to build up the revenues of certain commissions from the prop erty tax, and then balked at adding a mere $240,000 to the university appropriation, and why they apparently con sidered the services of the capitol custodian and the game commission worth more than those of the agricultural ex tension service. Representatives to the Nebraska unicameral'Iegislature have not yet begun consideration of the budget, but since they usually accept the work of the budget committee, only a strong current of public opinion- might be able to make them reconsider the proposal. e- If you want to see new instructors added to the faculty, the best men now teaching kept here, new equipment in stalled and a general rejuvenation of the university in the next two years, now is the time to convince your parents and your senators that the university needs that $240,000. If the farmers of the state want research conducted for them by the university to increase their productiveness, now is the time to point out the worthwhile activities of the agriculture extension service to the legislature. Their ac tion on the budget will determine, in a large measure, the future of our university. Bone-Head Sponsors Signal Flags In Crib Closed Sections . . . (Continued from Page J.) Mil. Sci. 157 Mod.

He organ ized and for thirty years con ducted the Nebraska Geological survey. He also organized and built up the Nebraska State Mu seum, and served as director of the museum since 1891. He was the author of more than 400 scientific books and reports. Dr. Barbour served as presi dent of the men's faculty club, president of the Lincoln board of education, president of Sigma Xi, city park commissioner, chairman of the court of honor of the Boy Scouts of America, and president BY DON SHEPHERD This is not a paid-political an nouncement but is brought to the students as a public service fea ture. If it ever comes up to a vote, be sure to vote for PQ 1392. This is the Shepherd sponsored "Get Crib seat-savers out of confusion" amendmer K Now, it is quite possible that some people on campus do not fully understand the need for this important amendment. So let me explain the necessity for passing good ol' number PQ 1392. I am a Crib booth-saver from the word "GO" and I know as well as any one the responsibility and the difficulty of such a position. Leave us take a hypothetical case that could well happen to you. A few minutes before ten a. m. you dash to the crib to save a booth for Jerry, Harvey and Jack. No trouble at all, the place is prac tically empty so you pick a booth that gives you a good view of the door and order a cup of coffee. Confusion. By ten o'clock all of the other booths are full and there are five hundred people looking from the doorway for someone they know who might have a little room in their booth. You are gazing through the smoke looking for Jerry, Harvey and Jack and wish ing that you had eaten more car rots for breakfast. Finally you spot Jack in the back of the crowd and wait eagerly for him to look your way. He doesn't. He just gapes around for five or ten minutes looking every way but yours. Finally his eyes come to rest in your direction and you grin from ear to ear and start waving your hand madly at him More Confusion. Now that all sounds very easy except for one thing; everybody at the door is waiting for a per son he might know to wave a hand. Jack, it seems, wasn't looking at you at all but had a keen eye on the blond in the booth next to yours. He didn't see you wave and by now he is tired of looking for you and you see him shrug and leave for parts unknown. That isn't bad enough, the hand message of welcome you sent out is taken by five big brutes to have had a personal meaning for them and they dash over and say "Thanks a lot, buddy, thought we'd never get a place to sit. Move over." All of this wouldn't be so hard to take, but it so happens that these fellows are all fugitives from the Honors Convo and before you know it they are deep in the discussion of the political prob: lems of the Rumshinsky privince of southern Bulgaria. Let's get back to Jack. As Jack strides out of the Union he runs into Jerry and says: "Leave it to Shep. That meathead! He didn't even show up." "Just like the heel," says Jerry. "Let's sit out in the car this period and talk about him and smoke cigarettes." What happens to Harvey? Well, you see Harvey is a quick-eyed boy, and when he strolls into the crib he spots you right off. He sees you sitting with these five intellectual giants and leaves. He sees Jack and Jerry in the car and says, "Looks like old bone dome has gone hoypolloy on us. Too good to says us a booth." So you lose three good friends. Simple? Now the Shepherd bill will solve this problem for everybody. It's very simple: at every booth in the crib there will be a three foot flag staff and a white flag. Also there will be two boxes; one full of assorted letters and the other containing numbers. Every body in the university will have a number. My number would be about 8,294. Now probably r.o one has more than 26 friends, so your friends could be listed al phabetically. OK, it's ten in the morning. I have a booth, and I see Jack, Jerry and Harvey stand ing at the door. I reached into the box and put numbers 8,294 on the flag. Then suppose Jerry is W, Jack is M, and Harvey is Z. I put a W. M. and Z on the flag below my number and run up the of the Nebraska academy of science. honored at a dinner by associates and students. Dr. Barbour told the group, "I've been very for tunate in being called to the uni versity in the center of the finest collection grounds of any state in the country. .. flag. Everybody sees it im mediately and Haryey says, "Isn't that Shep's number?" He pulls out his book that has all names and numbers and checks on it. "Yep, that's him." "I'm W," says Jerry. "Harvey's Z and I'm M," says jack, so they come over and all's well. Other fellows at the door will look up 8,294 in their books and will say "Shepherd. Never heard of him," or "I know Shepherd but my letter's K so he doesn't want me." So you can see what a wonder ful advancement PQ 1392 will be. But . . . I know what you're thinking but I've solved that problem too. You'xe wondering what's going to be done about the beautiful blond who-sits-by-herself type. No doubt every male has had the ex perience. You see a girl sitting by herself and no guy in sight. So you walk up an say "All right if I sit " A heavy hand falls on your shoulder and you spin to Steaks Chops Chicken Chinese Dishes Fountain Service 1128 P St Phone 2-7823 find yourself looking at yourself. But it really isn't you, it's just our reflection in some brute's belt buckle. "Hit the road, Smoe," he says. So you leave. The next day the same girl is there with no one near. But, you've learned your lesson and don't go near. She sits by herself for an hour and then leaves. Under the Shepherd bill, all booths will have a red and green flag. If the girl is expecting a boy friend she runs up the red flag. If not, she puts up the green one and you're in! There it is friends! Remember, if you must vote, vote for PQ 1392!
