Thus introduced, we confer our plaudits: To the student body for promoting: a Council; to the Council for promoting a newspaper; to the Daily Nebraskan for its excel lent co-operation; to Dean Lueth for his blessings on our project. Our newspaper, we hope, will serve usefully, disseminat ing news and providing ready outlet for the unlimited store of literary talent invariably associated with medical con course. If we do that. . .enough. Anything more is gravy. Nevertheless, in our embry onal ambitiousness, we shall endeavor to promote the gravy most promiscuously, and en visage our little paper as an instrument of greater cohesive ness within the college, of more acute awareness and interest in the many projects engaged in by our staff and students, and of greater pride in the highly complex, highly skilled endeavor that goes into the making of a fine medical col lege. Our caps set then for lofty heights, we thrust ourselves upon your consciousness, dear readers, and beg your indul gence whilst we attend to our growing pains. Alums Honor Moe, Raise Book Funds A Phillip K Moe memorial In the form of a recreation reading room for university personnel will be instituted this fall. Dr. A. J.

J. Doan. The Unit, which fills the need for a first class psychiatric teaching organization, and for a closer tie between the community and the application of modern methods of preventative psychiatry was established early this year through the cooperation of the State Board of Control, the University of Nebraska, and Douglas County. New Schedule Will Include Externships A new senior schedule, de signed to give students more practical training during the aca demic years, has been instituted at the University of Nebraska Medical College. 'Chief innovation of the sched ule is the addition of an eight weeks senior externship. Senior students will be assigned to one of four local hospitals for this purpose. University, Immanuel, Methodist and Clarkson hospitals are included in the project. Dur ing the period of externship, the students will live and work at their respective hospitals. They will attend no courses at the University during this time. At the end of eight weeks, the externs will change places with another division of the class which had been assigned to dis pensary. The two" sections to gether make up half the class. The other half of the class will in the meantime be receiving a full semester of didactic and clinical lectures and will be as signed to outcall patients at this time. At the end of the semester, they will alternate to dispensary and externship assignments. The arrangement is such that all didactic lectures will have to be gone overHwice in order that all the senior students may hear them. The staff is thus taking on an added burden in order to carry thru this more complete senior schedule.

Effected July L, Under the teaching program put into effect July 1, 1948, five resi dents are now serving with the unit. Three of these are at tho second year level in a contem plated three year residency pro gram. The training program con sists of staff conferences, lec tures on the various phases of psychiatry, and practical experi ence. The second year men will spend most of their time in psychotherapy, while the first year men will be given emphasis on the methods and principles of physical therapy such as electro shock and insulin shock therapy. Planned for the future are seminars, lectures in basic psy chiatry and special-topic lecture seminars, the latter to be con ducted by prominent men in the field of psychiatry. Other plans call for a post-graduate course in psychiatric nursing and a closer relation between the unit and the neurology and psychology depart ments of Nebraska medical school.
