(Continued from Page 1.) training course for representatives of 54 UN member nations. "The United Nations," Dr. Olav Pass-Grunt, UN Educational Offi cer, said recently, "is particularly interested in stimulating the pro gram planned by the University of Nebraska. Nebraska is the only state outside of the United Nations Headquarters area that is consid ering an educational program of this scope. Only through this type of cooperation san the United Na tions be properly understood in all the nations of the world." ' In addition the UN has agreed to send its famed "UN Display," g featuring pictorial information . about UN and all the member na- i tions to the University where it ' will be housed during the summer ' session in Love Memorial Library. The display heretofore has been shown only in a few eastern sea board cities. Dr. Sorenson and other educa tors are now preparing a 10 point program to implement this work. "We want to make Nebraska citizens the best informed people in the world about the ways of the United Nations," Wayne O. Reed, State Superintendent says. About the program, G. W. Stew art, Jr., chief of the Information Division of the American Mission to UN says: "The program for education about the United Na tions will be a sort of pilot project for the U. S. and the world as well. We hope to encourage other institutions to do as you are do ing. The Nebraska undertaking is the most enterprising of its kind. We all hope it succeeds."
