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.

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

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!
