State Educators To Begin
United Nations Instruction
A group of University of Ne
braska and other educators of
this state has accepted a unique
invitation to help children and
adults around the world learn
about the United Nations.
Two members of the group. Dr.
Frank E. Sorenson, assistant dean
of the University's summer ses
sion, and Dr. Leo P. Black, rep
resenting the State Department of
Public Instruction, left Sunday for
Lake Success, N. Y., to begin the
work.
UN Teachers Wanted.
The invitation resulted from
the University's effort to obtain
for its summer session a well
rounded teacher training program,
covering the aims and operations
' of the United Nations.
Dr. Sorenson said United Na
tions information spokesmen told
him Nebraska was the first uni
versity to seek establishment of a
co-ordinated program using UN
lecturers and instructional ma
terial. The University will get the
summer program with UN help,
but United Nations information
officers asked that Nebraska, in
return, give aid to the planning of
an international educational pro
gram. Ask Nebraska Advice.

Alaskan Expert
Col. C. R. Cannon, expert on
Alaskan affairs, spoke to the Pha
lanx military fraternity Thursday
night at a regular meeting of the
group on the Alaskan situation.
Col. Cannon, who was Com
mander of the 364 Infantry on
Adak during the War and who is
now Chief Instructor for the Re
serve affairs in Nebraska, related
to the group a detailed description
of the land, people, and possibili
ties of Alaska.
Slides
The Colonel, who was recently
promoted to a full Colonel, also
showed the members of the group
slides of the territory of Alaska.
Col. Cannon expressed the opin
ion that Alaska was vital to the
American chain of defense. He
outlined the turn of events during
the war when the Japanese forces
took part of the Aleutian chain
and pointed out how vulnerable
that country was then and could
be today from any kind of an
attack from any kind of an enemy,
Mineral Wealth
Col. Cannon also told of the
mineral wealth and the farm lo
calities. He outlined the results of
the late Franklin Roosevelt's plan
to have the army experiment with
livestock and chickens during the
war. "As a whole the experiment
was a success," said the Col., "but
for anyone else except the Army
to bring in food for the animals,
it would be senseless because of
the huge costs involved."
A short business meeting fol
lowed the Col. Talk.
