Diogenes would have been right
in style in Ag Hall Thursday at
least his lantern would have come
in handy not casting any asper
sions as to his quest. Anyway, Ag
students had a chance to realize
some of the obstacles met by their
ancestors as they studied by
candlelight and maneuvered by
flashlight in that revered build
ing. The immediate reason for set
ting the lighting back on a par
with the "modern conveniences"
in Ag Hall was a temporary
power shortage. Normal opera
tion was resumed at 11 00 Thurs
day with the only casualties be
ing Mrs. Tullis' chorus and a few
strained eyes.
Home Dem and County agents
were everywhere this week as
Old Grads took the campus by
storm. The occasion is the annual
conference of the Extension Di
vision which is now taking place.
The visitors took time out Tues
day to honor W. H. Brokaw, Ex
tension Director, emeritus, for
distinguished service to national
agriculture. In recognition of the
leadership which lifted the Ne
braska department to fourth place
among the nation's extension de
partments, they awarded him the
ruby of Epsilon Sigma Phi, na-
tional agricultural service fratern- i
ity. !
Comes question and answer
time. Question "Is Ag college j
primarily an educational institu-
tion, or a research institution?" ,
Answer Both, but it seems thct
there ure some unfortunate com-
binations in existence. Students I
have voiced many gripes about j
research men who also fill posts
as instructors the research men !
have probably griped more. The
whole sum and substance lies in
the fact that a competent re-
search man is not, and does not :
pretend to be, a teacher. Such an
attitude is not , a healthy one
either for students or instructors,
and its result is not flattering for
the institution.
All who criticize should sug
gest a remedy so I'll throw in
two cents worth. The University
of Missouri has met the problem
of competence among instructors
with a plan which has worked
out quite well. They appoint a
faculty-student board which aud
its every class, and makes sug
gestions to instructors and to ad
ministrative heads. It seems to me
that such aVommittee could un
earth some weird discoveries on
our own campus.
This procedure might meet with
disfavor among a lot of students
who appreciate the "snap"
courses, but others who regard the

In 4-H Contest
Clayton Yeutter, student at
the University of Nebraska Ag
college, is a member of the state
champion 4-H livestock judging
team from Dawson county. The
judging team will compete in the
non-collegiate livestock judging
contest at the international
Livestock Show in Chicago late
this month.
Other members of the team are
Bob Dunlap and Bob Clark.
Harold Stevens, extension agent
at Lexington, is the coach.
dollar spent for education more
highly, would be happy.
Take it all with a grain of salt
if you will but there is a defi
nite problem here which could
affect the quality of Ag college
graduates. People will raise an
awful fuss about a good football
coach why don't they express
that same interest in the educa
tion angle?
