As usual, the student body is not acting. Dr. Rosenlof has sent letters to all organized houses ask ing for room and board, or room, for one foreign student for a year. Few groups have made replies to this letter. As a result of a meeting held by the Council's commit tee on bringing displaced persons to the campus with rep resentatives of organized houses and religious groups, the Council has been promised considerable backing in its proj ect. The International Religious Organization of the U. N. has assured the transportation of foreign students to the United States. The Presbyterian Student House has pledged funds to pay for transportation of such students to Ne braska. The prospect of tuition for these students by the ad ministration has a hopeful outlook. The students have never failed to take advantage of an opportunity to criticize the administration, but have they shown even half the interest displayed by the administration in this matter? We urge that all organized houses seriously think about making room for a foreign student. Consider how proud the University might feel if every house could provide room and board for a foreign student for a year. Consider what it would mean to the student. It would be the end of a life of privation and homelessness. It would mean the beginning of a bright outlook on life, the chance for a decent home, the chance for an education. During the recent UNESCO con ference we obtained a glimpse of the tremendous task faced by that body of educating Europe. How can we ever expect world peace if we don't give these people a chance for edu cation, prosperity and a high standard of living? Some groups will be selfish enough to ask, "What will we gain by providing room for a displaced person?" You will receive the undying gratitude of a foreign student who is given a chance in the world. His presence in an organized house would certainly contribute to our understanding of the problems faced by the" homeless today. SUSIE REED.

Hosts and hos tesses will be the Methodist boys club, Delta Sigma Theta, and the girls club, Kappa Phi. The party is an annual affair, ordinarily sponsored by Kappa Phi at Christmas time. Because of the many parties held for the orphans at Christmas, it was de cided to hold a party with an Easter theme this year. Plans for the party, including games and refreshments, are be ing made by Kappa Phi, with Bonita Kirkman in charge of ar rangements. Transportation for the orphans will be provided by the Delta Sigma Thetas. Classified VOI R personal appearance . . . our specialty!

Introducing . . . Fritz Simpson A unSv aan we startpH a series of editorials to introduce staff members for the specific purpose of identifying the people who put out the Rag so that those who would throw rocks at them won't be endangering any innocent bystander by any fault of mistaken identity. This is item number two. A quiet but effective whip-cracker is our second managing edi tor, Fritz Simpson. A major in journalism and son of a "daily" publisher-editor, Fritz has been exposed to the newspaper business for a long time. Editor of both his high school newspaper and yearbook in At lantic, Iowa. Fritx spent his freshman year at NU as a reporter for the Daily Nebraskan, specializing in sports itws. He was ap pointed at the end of his first semester sophomore year as sports editor, served as a news editor last semester and now sits in the slot as managing editor. Like all staff members, Fritz has a few cam paigns of his own. One of them has to do with the Rag itself improvement, that is. Another major one is a matter of final exams. Fritz would like to see the University enlarge The Daily Nebraskan. Thus, many of the difficul ties that naturally arise from having to print the paper "off campus" would be eliminated, and there would be opportunity for University students to learn the operations of a newspaper plant from the composing room angle. Fritz views final exams as a headache, espe- ni:iiiv with all tho rlipntine nractires thev seem to invoke. He would lather see a series of hour exams in a course minimum of four with the "final" coming on the last day the class meets, counting no more than the other hour exams. What other projects Fritz may have in mind will save for future editorials. So when Fritz isn't dispensing erf reporters with hot news tips or threatening news editors to "get those stories in!" he will probably be tracking down reports which lead to good editorial material. Coiner's Informal 'Friendlies' Offer Student Entertainment Wednesday afternoon "Friend lies" have become one of the most popular traditions at Cotncr House, according to Mrs. Ray mond Benson, campus director of the Christian Student fellowship. Our informal "Friendlies" are held from 4 to 5:30 p. m. each Wednesday afternoon. We de vote them to "being friendly" and to getting acquainted. Sometime we pop corn in the fireplace, roast marshmellows or just talk and sing," Mrs. Benson says. As at many student houses on campus, Cotner House is open during the day for Christian stu dents to spend their free hours studying or meeting their friends. AN IMPORTANT PROJECT at the house is the plan for dis placed students. The first re ligious group on campus to defin itely commit itself on the pro gram, Cotner has made definite plans about the program. The Christian students will pay for transportation from New York to Nebraska for one displaced stu dent.

Wherry's plan calls for a two-thirds or three-fourths ma jority rule to limit debate in the senate. These developments in the Sen ate all point toward a long sum mer session. Four of the Presi dent's proposals were labeled as dead or dying. Among them were his UMT, a tax hike, civil rights and health insurance by pay roll taxation. The 81st Congress does not seem to be co-operating fully with Truman's campaign promises. JOHN L. LEWIS continued his "memorial" .to the dead and in jured miners Monday. Many be- lieve the real basis for the strike of 432,000 miners was the ap pointment of James Boyd to the position of Director of the Bureau of Mines. Boyd's appointment was approved by a Senate committee yesterday. WITH THE terms of the North Atlantic Security Alliance to be announced Friday, members of the United Nations expected trou ble. Russia is almost sure, they believe, to "raise the roof in the UN Council agi.inst the pact. The Soviet offense is expected in the April meeting of the Assembly. THE I'NITEI) States Air Forces revealed the striking range of present Air Force bombers at a meeting of the joint chiefs of staff. According to the Army, the B-36 can hit any target in Rus sia without refueling. Union Sponsors Square Dancing Do you have a new red plaid shirt or a new cotton dress to show off?

Their committee is sponsoring a series of Square Dancing lessons. Although the series began Feb. 19, they will last until March 29. So, begin ners, come on and join the fun; it isn't too late.
