BUD DOWNING After all the hullabaloo about the big weed-end in Kansas, it is rumored that everyone stayed right here in old Lincoln had fun too!! East Hills was just like a private club Saturday night there was actually room for every one to dance at the same time. Don't know just what the deal is, but the word is going around that Sue Kent thinks she has some sort of a priority on Keith O'Ban non's affections. How about that Keith??? Bobbie DeJarnette is looking forward to a wonderful week-end Her pinmate, Bill Kenner, will be down from Medical school for the homecoming dance. Shirley Roach, mentioned here in last week as dating roommates in the TKE house, is now going steady with Sig Ep Dick Way When!! Just can't keep up with these young sprouts. My, the DG s are really going to have a big blowout in a couple of weeks. Even with homecoming and all this week-end, they are still finding time to work on their "Ship Party ' which comes off a week from Saturday night. Every one is to come dressed. (That's kinda nice.) Bill Mueller, Steve Reed and Jerry Moore wish to make it known that they, and only they, are responsible for one Herb Twae. Herb has taken permanent residence in the Alpha Chi living room. His history is quite unique and is known in full only by the three above mentioned. A few new "steadies" as of this week-end are: Margie Cherny and Don Spomer Donna Burley and Bob Yar wpod. Jo Swan and -ewey Davis. All apologies to the DCs, the dean of women, and whomever else it may conce v In glancing over my notes I find that every one is to come to the DG party dressed as river rats. (That's nice, too.)

There was a question raised in Student Council meeting last week about why stu dents pay $3.00 for individual The wild statement was even made by one or two members that perhaps "someone" on the staff was going to pocket huee sums this year from We tried to explain the editorial this fall. Evidently . . . but we're patient. In the first place, the Cornhusker is operating at pres ent on the basis of an estimated the staff is trying to give students a book for the same price as last year's in spite of the fact that cover, printing and en era vine costs have all increased. Also, more books are being printed this year and the cost goes up for each additional book that is printed. Each year the yearbook business manager estimates a budget which this year is estimated at a loss. The actual cost cannot be presented until the book is completed and all the pictures, printing and engraving expenses are set down. In regard to individual pictures: Pictures last year were $2.50. The picture studio was paid $1.25. This year the studio price is $1.75. Only one studio submitted a bid on the contract. At the beginning of the year, the Corn husker staff thought the bid was too high, and so re-opened bids. However, no other studio tried for the contract and it had to be awarded to the one studio bidding. Therefore, in order to get the same income from pic tures, the book also had to up their price to $3.00. Why should the book make a profit on the pictures? This question may be answered by pointing out that the year book must have this income in order to operate in order to tav for the book. Approximate cost of each book is $10.30. Price to students is Another interesting fact subsidized either by grants from the University or by stu dent fees. Most college yearbooks are under some subsidy system. This fact staff members verified at the American College Press convention in Columbus, Ohio, last week. What if the book does is also easily answered. If at book has made any profit large or small the money goes directly to the Publications Board and is put into the Publi cations fund which is used among other things, to help sub sidize the Prairie Schooner, literary magazine of the Uni versity, is donated each year to the Ag and City Unions for recreational purposes. The money also provides a reserve fund for future publication losses. In short, the Publications Board uses the money as it sees fit. The above statements on stand true for the Cornshucks and The Daily Nebraskan. All money goes through the student activities office where all checks and vouchers must be okayed. All money in excess of publications costs and salaries is put into the Publica tions Board Fund . . . period.

BUSINESS STAMP Ras'aess Manager Assistant Husiness Managers Circulation Manager EDITORIAL SrAFF ftdltor Managing Editors PhotoKrai'hrr Special Features Editor Sports Editor Mght News Editor Resignation Asked Of Chicago Editor A campus civil war has broken out at Chicago's Roosevelt col- ege. Executive members of the college theater, in a six page brief, have called for the immedi ate resignation of the editor in chief of Torch, the college news paper. The controversy flared into the Union to Open New Craft Shop The Student Union's newest addition, the handicraft shop, will officially open Nov. 9, Bob Metra kos.Urnoaiiobby and house com mtuVe "sptmsor, revealed Tuesday. An open house in the Hobby Shop will be held on the opening day. Or. display will be samples of the various crafts that will be offered ... -. Instruction, will be given two nights a week. Detailed informa tion as to the hours the shop will be open and when classes will be held can be found next week at the booth in the Union lobby. Bob suggested, "Here's a chance to make your own Christmas gifts, leather billfolds, or your own Christmas cards." Crafts will include metal work, leather work, linoleum block printing, wood burning, and tex tile painting. There will be no charge for equipment used, while materials will be issued at cost. rwo-Milc Sfjuad Loses to Kansas Nebraska's crippled two-milers were given a taste of cross country running at Lawrence Saturday. The result was dis asterous for Coach Weir's men, but due to the fact that Kan sas's fall trackmen are among the Midwest's finest, they are far from discouraged. Coach Ed Weir was not dis appointed with the showing, as the Huskers weren't expecting to run the route over hill and dale. Bob Karnes, who led the Kan sans, ran the distance on a track against Kansas State last Wednes day in the time of 4:43. This is faster than his time in winning the Big Seven meet last spring. A boost to the distance men is the probability that Bill Mount ford, who missed Saturday's meet with KU because of illness, will be ready for the Missouri dual Saturday morning. Markevitch to Play Here DimRry Markevitch, world renowned musician and 'eelist, will appear with the University Symphony orchestra at 8 p. m., Sunday, Nov. 21, in the Union ballroom.

Charges Discrimination The student paper charged dis crimination in casting, profes sionalism, foolish choice of plays and actors, and racial -discrimination in casting and membership in the theater group. Student and faculty members of the theater board replied at once with a special brief calling for resignations of the editor and "the men who have flagrantly mis-guided him." They accused the "Torch's" staff . of being character assassins. They also . leveled the charge that the use of a swastika was "not only a smear and personally insulting to veterans in the theater group but a libel on every member of the theater." Editor Replies The "Torch" editor replied that professionals had been used in student productions, Negroes had been denied parts in certain pro ductions ("The Little Foxes"), and that the swastika did not re present facism but only " anti democracy." Since the paper is published without faculty control or super- " vision, and only the Student Council can force removal of the editor, it is unlikely the affair will go beyond tne name calling stage.
