SunHay, NbvemEer 16, 1947 PAGE 2 THE DAILY NEBRASKAN Straight Skinny By Jim Gwynn and Van Westover Oh, party, party, party, and oh, what a week-end! The Tau's par tied at the "Pike" on Friday night since they only had to pay the tax on tickets to get in. Joe Philbrick and Jack Wagner apparently thought there would be a table shortage at the place and jour neyed out that way at an early hour to hold one down. Their dates, Jan Loudon and Rosie Kimball, arrived much later in the evening to join these fore sighted boys. Jacupke Capers. One of the smoothest deals yet planned by Jerry Jacupke and his gang was executed that same right. The gang kidnapped "Skeeter" House from her home and held her captive until Jerry wis- ready to take her to the Pike." The gal wasn't even al lowed to call Randy Ewing to tell him that she wouldn't be able to keep her date with him. Saturday Morning After. Thetas led the ten o'clock breakfast rush in the Crib.

Janitors at Ideal Hall threw out the funnels left by Friday night crowds. Just another triangle on the campus scene involves Ellie Swanson. She is having a mighty rough time keeping both Wayne Kingery and Walt Samuelson happy and content. The S A E's partied in a French way with their Pig Alley party on Saturday night at the house. Also in the house party vein were the Kappa Sigs and their annual barn dance. Everyone seemed to have a big time sliding down the fire pole in back of the .house. Oh, we love this form of entertain ment! Yea, we do!

According to all available in formation it can be assumed that five schools, a number sufficent ly large to carry any motion, will favor the proposed changes. In an interview with Dean Full brook of the college of Business Administration, the university's representative to the association, it was learned that he "would like to see the whole thing worked out to see that there is no dis crimination against any student," but he also made it clear that he is merely the representative of the Athletic Board and would repre sent that group in all matters. The Boards composed of four faculty members, two alumni, and three ex-officio members from the ad ministration, will hold its next meeting on Dec. 9. between the student meeting and the meeting of the faculty representatives of the association. Jacupke Interviewed Mozer stated that the council, when it passes its new resolution, will present it to the Athletic Board and seek this groups sup port. Gerald Jacupke, Husker varsity guard, also stated in an interview that there is a great deal of sentiment on the football team against the current discrim inatory practices. He joined Jack Hill and Stanley Johnson, who promise discussion of the problem by the Innocents by pledging that the matter would be discussed at the meeting of the N club that is to be held next week. A similar pledge has been made by mem bers of the Corn Cobs, the men's pep organization. ThLhaAkcuv Of ISS Organizations And Groups .... - I I. ttnlonn Wit lacf im Note- This la the third In a series of articles written for Tbe Daily Netiraskan by Marcella Slajchert. Univer sity of Nebraska graduate who is now In Prague. Chechoslovakia studying Jour nalism at Prague University. BY MARCELLA SLAJCHERT If the University of Nebraska is to reap full advantages of "membership" in International Student Service, it must become intimately familiar with the or ganization, its principles, its members, and its program, else the purpose of sending delegates to annual conferences only gath ers dust on the shelf of good in tentions. So here is lesson No. 1 on what ISS is made of and why. Sounds complicated at first, I know it ook a two-day pre-sailing con ference on the Rutgers campus in Passaic, New Jersey last June, plus seven days of shipboard con ferences and committee meetings to school those of us wh were delegates in tbe finer intricacies of ISS policies, but it's all really not as deep and far away as it seems at first glance. First Stop The first step is to study what we like to call the "Internationa! Alphabet."

To start off in familiar ground, let's begin with WSR, World Student Relief, which was rec ognized in 1945 by UNRRA as a "world agency specializing in the rehabilitation of students." WSR is composed of three con stituent organizations, ISS, Pax Romana and WSCF. Pax Romana is the Catholic student organiza tion and WSCF is World's Stu dent Christian Federation. WSR is, broadly speaking, an attempt to establish between people with different backgrounds and con victions a basis of human under standing in the concrete tasks of university and student rehabili tation. Cooperating committees of WSR include WSSF, World Student Service Fund which is its fund raising organization; ESRF, the European Student Relief Fund; the YM and YWCA; the Commis sion mixes of the Red Cross; and UNESCO among others. IUS Then there is IUS, the Inter national Union of Students whose headquarters are here in Prague and with which NSO, the Nation al Student Organizatfbn in the U. S. is considering affiliation. NSO had its annual conference A Thought By Beverly Sievers It has been here and gone. Were you affected or has this experience just gone past and left you still sitting in the same old rut? Perhaps you don't even know what "it" is. I am referring to the opportuni ties which were presented to the Nebraska University students in this last several Jays. The oppor tunities presented by Religion In Life Week. We had on campus some of the most stimulating speakers in our country today. They presented us with thoughts on inter-faith and inter-cultural relationships, suc cessful homes, and the place of religion in world problems. Students were given a chance to voice their opinions and to hear the opinions of men and women who have studied these problems and are well versed in their fields. We have talked much about in tegrating religion into our cam pus life: making it a definite part of this life rather than a separate and unrelented activity in our curriculum. We dash madly from class to class, class to lunch, class to meet ing and never stop to think of utfiv or where we are dashing. We need a sense of direction and the one way we can find it is to become aware of the infinite love which can be ours if we will recognize our place in God's uni verse and strive to fill that place. 5.00 8.054 8.05 in Madison, Wis., last August, as you all are aware, and voted con ditional affiliation with IUS. Criticism of IUS is that it has "let itself become , involved in politics." ISS grants that in the world today it is difficult to carry out a program of ludent relief without getting into world poli tics, but nevertheless ISS stands firmly for "a university commu nity which implies that no on should be held at a disadvantage in the university' on account of factors of race, nationality, wealth, sex, religious or POLIT ICAL CONVICTIONS . . ." Another point where ISS and IUS differ is that IUS is an or ganization for students only, whereas ISS welcomes the fac ulty world as well as the student world into its ranks. ISS believes that it should do all possible "to trengthen community life among students, BETWEEN TEACHERS AND STUDENTS, and between students and the whole of 4he society of which they form a part . . ." First Relief By way of history, relief for students was first organized in China back in 1937. The Nation al Student Relief Committee for China was set up at that time to aid students making the long inland trek from the coastal cities. In 1939. the European Student Relief Committee was set up to aid distressed European students. Then in 1943, these two commit tees were subsequently merged into World Student Relief, which has distributed aid to the various countries solely on the basis of need. (Need versus Merit will be discussed later). As noted before, WSR is jointly sponsored by ISS, WSCF and Pax Romana. Each organization has five representatives on the executive committee which deter mines the policies of relief work. WSR has a charter which allows it three more years of existence. Now about ISS itself. A secre tariat does the day-to-day work of the organization. Head of the U. S. co-operating committee is Wally Doerr, 329 George Street, New Haven, Conn. Wally is re sponsible to a standing self-perpetuating committee of seven members which in turn is under the executive committee of the ISS Assembly. This assembly is composed of 20 to 30 co-members who act as a policy-making body authorized by the annual confer ence to carry out the decisions. The ISS delegation is sponsored by the National Continuations Committee and WSSF. Committees Factually, it is incorrect to speak of ' belonging to ISS" be cause ISS actually is a non-membership organization. The various national committees are recog nized by the international organ ization as their representatives in the various countries. These na tional committees don't pay dues. They act both as a "forum" for discussion by students of all coun tries of their various problems and for the expression of their divergent view. ISS is also a service organiza tion in that it hopes to bring about the exchange of students as much as possible so that they become aware of their belonging to an international student or uni versity community. ISS attempts to be as much as possible a non political organization. It stands for the free expression of the ideas of students regardless of their personal convictions for it believes that free discussion is the firt step towards understanding. Got the picture now?
