The week of training in gov

Lutheran Student
Goes to Germany
Kenneth Wilson is one of 17
Lutheran students from the
United States who will partici
pate in three international
Lutheran study-work projects in
Germany this summer.
The projects are sponsored, by
the Lutheran World Federation
and the division of student serv
ice. Wilson has been assigned to
the project in Bavaria, which
will consist ot the construction of
a rubble church at Herzogs
Sagcmuble. The project will run
from June 20 to August 20.
A senior in electrical en
gineering, Wilson is president of
the midwest region of the Luth
eran Student Association.
will return home tomorrow and
Girls' Staters will leave the
campus Sunday.
During their one-week ses
sion, the Staters have organized
town and state governments,
elected officers, and watched
their own state's government in
action. The prepsters have
watched the University in action,
too.
A dance in the Union, a coke
in the Crib and life in dorms and
sorority houses have been part
of the Staters week.
Boys' and Girls' State is spon
sored annually by the American
Legion and the American Legion
Auxiliary. The students are se
lected by local posts from high
school juniors.
While in Lincoln they are
chaperoned by University per
sonnel, Legion members and
university students, who acted as
counselors.
The scale rjiodel of the University's first building, University Hall, is shown above.
The model was presented to the University by the class of 1S97 at the Alumni's Round-Up
luncheon on Saturday. A committee headed by J. V. Corttelyou of Lincoln secured plans
and had the model made. Another active participant in the project was Miss Flora Bul
lock, secretary qf the class.
The gift was presented to Chancellor Gustavson by Robert Manley, '97.
The scale model is done in soft wood. Each detail of the brick is etched on its sur
face. Campus old timers report that the replica is perfect in each detail with the excep
tion of a flight of basement stairs which may have been added after its construction.
The replica will be encased in glass an d put on display at a spot which has not yet
been determined. Until its display time the model will be stored by the alumna office,
although it is now the property of the university.
The structure, as it appears in the model, is remembered by few. Ever since its con
struction the old hall has been under going rennovation. It's first major change came
when it's second and third floors were removed.
The building was condemned several times. Finally wooden braces were placed
against its exterior walls. Last year it was declared unfit and torn down. At the time
of its demise, U hall housed the modern language department and the school of journal
ism. Since then these departments have moved to Burnett Hall.
