Agri-View
BY LOUISE McDILL.
Thursday is election day at
Ag college. Since elections are
taking place only on Ag campus,
Thursday's election should prove
to be not only a student's demo
cratic privilige, but a challenge.
In not cancelling Ag elections,
the faculty is placing a trust in
the hands of Ag students to con
duct their election in such a way
that it will be above criticism.
More or less clean politics have
always been the password at
Ag college, and this year gives
Aggies a great chance to prove
that it will always be true.
TRUE. THERE are the two
fratrrnal groups at Ag college
that vie, sometimes bitterly, for
elective positions. There are also
other groups, mostly barb
groups, who are increasingly
aware of the political aspects on
the campus and who are also
working to "get their people
elected."
This situation is not serious.
Politics seldom sinks to the
lower levels that apparently
have been kown on the down
town campus. This group divi
sion, however, should be
watched so that it does not be
come serious.
AG COLLEGE has a good
start toward clean elections and
politics in that it includes a
smaller group of people, thus
allowing more nearly the ideal
situation where everyone knows
everyone else. Consequently, the
person who deserves a position
is more likely to be elected to
that position.
Besides the challenge to vote
fairly, there is the charge to
vote. This is a trite statement,
but nevertheless an important
one. The more students that vote
for the candidate that they fell
best deserves the position, the
less likely that any group will
be able to control the vote count.
The challenge has been issued.
Will Ag college meet it at elec
tions Thursday.
V of N Builders Offer Tours
Of Campus to All Visitors
"Want a guide to the campus?"
That's the question a group of
University students is prepared to
ask high school and special groups
which visit the campus through
out the year.
Organized as the Campus Tours
committee of the University of
Nebraska Builders (formerly Stu
dent Foundation), the group an
nually guides some 35 groups, or
several hundred young visitors,
around the University.

most eager to answer in the af
firmative to the committee's ques
tion. They visit the campus in
droves, especially when spring
comes, and are enthusiastic about
seeing Morrill hall, Love library,
the Coliseum, the Stadium and
classrooms in action. .
Sometimes the Tours committee
makes arrangements for the vis
itors to eat at the Union or to
meet instructors in fields of their
interests.
During the press convention for
high school students, tours of the
Lincoln Journal and Star were in
cluded on the trips. Ag campus
tours are conducted separately by
the public relations department.
VISITORS ARE especially in
terested in campus traditions, ac
cording to Sally Ann Johnson,
chairman of the committee. They
ask about the size of the Univer
sity, and .are interested in seeing
organized houses and dormitories,
she added.
The Campus Tours committee
was formally organized "about
fwn vears affo." said Miss John
son. Now the committee sends
several hundred letters yearly to
high schools inviting them to visit
the campus, and has "remarkable
response."
WHEN THE spring rush of high
school visitors is over this year,
the committee will start making
arrangements for tours for Job's
Daughters members during ineir
state convention June 15.
"The most difficult part about
giving the Tours," commented
Miss Johnson, "is keeping the Kids
together. It's not unusual to meet
the last half of your group com
ing toward you in the middle of
a tour.
"Rut we sure are learning a lot
about the campus," remarked the
Tours chairman. "We outline a
regulation tour of the campus and
include special sidelight miorma
tinn. Bv nractice and real study
rf iTnivprsHv buildings, traditions
and statistics, we attempt to make
our tours really popular wun our
visitors."
As I Was

By Poochie Rediger
The week-end began with a
plop when the spring rains hit
the same time the spring picnics
hit. But the party boys and girls
didn't let something like a little
rain dampen their spirits.
Saturday was a big day for all
concerned. The ZBT week-end
party, Fiji Island party, ISA
spring picnic and the men's dorm
dance all were held.
The Phi Delts were all set for
a big picnic at South Bend Fri
day afternoon after a big week's
work (showering coeds with the
hose, no doubt). Two of the out
standing couples were Jan Car
ter and Jim Lyle and Dave Nee
ley and Kay John.
Highlighting the Spring dance
at the Men's dorm Saturday night
was the presentation of the Dorm
Queen. Some of the couples at
tending were Duane Zellor and
Joan Lashelle, Tom May and
Norma Gamerl and Bob Steinhoff
and Iris Wells.
Vicing for the biggest party of
the week-end, the Phi Gams and
ZBT's went all out for fun. The
Fiji Island party Saturday night
proved to be a big success with
Jo Moss, whose grass skirt cer
tainly showed off her island tan,
and date Leo Geier. Need we say
more. Of course festivities were'nt
complete without sedately
engaged couple Marilyn Diestle
and Jack Schirmcr. Going-steady-again
(much to a certain ATO's
chagrin) Donna Burley and Bob
Yarwood were also on hand.
The ZBT's once-in-a-lifetime
week-end went off with a bang.
The three-day party, beginning
Friday afternoon, was highlighted
with a dance Saturday night.
(Everybody got decorated, in
cluding the house).
The ISA picnic turned out to
be a huge success. Notable couple
attending was President Bill Plank
and Vice-President Joan Learning.
Back to the picnics again. The
Phi Psis took off for Ashland
Saturday afternoon for their an
nual . . . Wherever there's . . .
fun there's Wally Banner. He and
date Jo Lisher, Susie Reed and
Fritz Simpson and Jim Kirshbaum
and Sally Rothenberger were
among the happy couples.
The Omaha alum chapter of
Kappa Kappa Gamma sponsored
a dance in Omaha Saturday night.
Two of the couples attending
were Ginny Swansburg and Bill
Rossmeyer and Teppy Votava and
Bruce Coffman.
The Alpha Xi's don't think they
can stand much more. Lawn
chair, trophies, girls all missing
after a terrific week of war with
the male population on campus.
Even Pat Black is hobbling around
on crutches. (It makes a good
story.)
