Religion-In-Life ...
This is Religion-in-Life week ... a five-day period set
aside by the Religious Welfare Council and devoted to dis
cussions, speeches, forums on religious topics by Protestant,
Catholic and Jewish church leaders.
The week's activities have been planned on an informal
basis with the idea in mind , that students will gain more
from such a procedure rather than from formal speeches.
Individuals leading discussions will serve as information
sources. Questions may be asked and will be answered in
as complete a manner as possible.
Some students may scoff at the idea of a "religion
week." However, it is possible, believe it or not, to gain
something interesting and useful from the talks and dis
cussions offered. Excellent speakers have been secured.
Some of the subjects include, "Can National Prob
lems be Solved Ethically?", "Lost and Found Personal
Ethics." Dr. Paul Harrison, the week's main speaker, is a
nationally known medical missionary who is well-known
for his work in the fields of brain surgery and spinal anes
thesia. He was graduated with honors from the University
and then entered Johns Hopkins Medical School.
Other outstanding speakers include Dr. Walter Judd,
a Minnesota Congressman, Dr. John Scott Everton of Grin
nel College, Rabbi Lou H. Silberman of Temple Israel,
Omaha, Rev. Charles Clark, S. J., of St. Louis, Mo.

Dear Editor:
By what constitutional right can the Student Council control ad
mission prices for university social functions?
The recent action of the Student Council with regard to the
Military ball leads one to believe that it is actually functioning as
an OPA.
Despite the fact that the plans for the Military ball have been
in Council hands since September, action was delayed until the day
before the sales .campaign was to begin. Is this the mark of an effi
cient organization?
Freedom of enterprise is the basis of our nation's economy. Why
should one organization on one campus try to destroy it? So long as
the Military ball is the most spectacular and outstanding formal oc
casion of the year, I am willing to forecast capacity crowds regard
ess of admission price. With regard to excess profits, Dean Harper
pays the brlls. He should be able to account for the use of the
receipts.
Personally, since a man in uniform will be admitted for three
dollars, I see no basis for any excess profit accusations! It's a good
excuse for many of us to see if we can still get into our "pride and
joy" of a few years back.
It would seem that the Student Council could use a course in
"Functions and Purposes of the Student Council" with special ref
erence to the Constitution. Incidentally, I have never been associated
with the Military department.

Dear Sir: .
Although most of the Homecoming decorations last week were
excellent, a few exhibited bad taste. Yet worst of all was the sacri
ligious use of the Bible in decorations by a group pretending to accept
it Those professing to hold the Bible in good faith will not use it or
its teachings for amusement.
The sponsors of this group owe the Christian students and fac
ulty of the University and the Christian people of Lincoln an apology
for this offense and an assurance that this will not be repeated.

Meddling With Melick
By M. J.
We wiped the dust of the cam
pus irom our heels last week
end and consequently were not
around to catch the latest dope.
As a result of same we have noth
ing to say today, and we'll pro
ceed to say it in the ensuing 12
inches. (Speaking of our week
end out-of-town, any one wish
ing to eliminate this column is
missing an excellent opportunity
for extortion. See "Classified.")
We did hang around long
enough to view the Nebraska
High School-Press association get
together. During their brief stay
on campus tomorrows William
Allen Whites put out an issue of
the Rag.
Friday afternoon 100 budding
journalists maybe there were
only 40 but they seemed like 100
descended on the Rag: office
with all the fury of a tornado.
For four hours they tore their
hair and ours. Confusion reigrned.
The Cornhusker went quietly out
of its mind. Corn Shucks closed
ts door and went home to sleep
it off. The man with the butterfly
net and the white jackets carried
off our managing: editor. A cross-
1 against the chances of the paper
ever going to press. The last was
a clincher and the paper came oat
Saturday morning. Seriously,
though, it was fun and valuable
experience e x p e r i e nee at any
rate for ALL concerned.
In our absence, the finalists for
Nebraska Sweetheart were se
lected. Future N. S. hopefuls will
do well to straighten that pin curl
and also take care that there is
something under it. It not only
takes looks, pull and personality
but brains. A laudable addition to
the list of qualifications.
The TNE's put away their paint
brushes and decided to let it alone
this week-end but another under
cover group was busily at work
stacking the votes for a couple of
campus elections, I'nlike Dr. Gal
lup, these boys can tell with 99.44
percent accuracy who will plant
the Ivy come next May. Maybe
they could also venture a guess
at the pre-KK Revue elections. A
few rugged individualists will
vote for the candidates of their
choice but most of the old guard
will fall in line behind the Fra-
office poll showed the odds 20 to ternity Betterment League. One
question perplexes us at this
point. Is it easier to memorize
than to think?
If an interesting feature or an
informative news story appears in
this space tomorrow it will be be
cause we've been thinking over
an adage handed down by our
German prof.
