Praises German
Agriculture Work
Agricultural demonstration work
in Germany has won the approval
of W .H. Brokaw, director emer
itus of the extension service.
Brokaw is now at Stuttgart,
Germany, as an agricultural ex
pert with the military govern
ment. He told of attending a potato
demonstration in the foothills of
the Bavarian Alps. The land is
very rolling to rough but the po
tato plants, their diseases and the
discussion was much the same as
held in Nebraska, he said in a
letter to friends here.
"While his language was not in
telligible to me, his methods were
so fine that one could not help but
get the importance of the discus
sion," Brokaw said of the German
speaker.

(4) Diverting $250,000 from
the special building levy funds
for the purchase of equipment
and for current maintenance in
keeping with legislative direction.
THESE STEPS, Mr. Thompson
said, enabled the University to
give "modest increases" in op
erating funds to several agencies
of the University, including the
College of Agriculture, the Agri
cultural Experiment Station, the
College of Medicine and the Uni

Nine high schol students from
Nursery Plan
Provides Day
Care for Junior
What to do with Junior, is the
question that is being answered
for students with children by the
Park school nursery department.
The school, located at 8th and F
streets, provides day-time care for
children over 2 years of age. It
opens at 6:30 a. m. and closes at
6 p. m. daily.
In operation since the war, the
school is headed by Mrs. Packard,
who is associated with the Park
school. She is aided by a staff of
nine teachers.
During the summer months, the
school operates as a playground.
In the winter it provides care for
children both before and after
regular classes. It is under the
supervision of the board of edu
cation. The cost per child is $1.40
per day.
J The school was organized to
provide "supervised play and
keep children off the streets." It
is available to anyone who is
not able to care for his children
during the day and is particularly
useful for University students,"
the chairman said.
At present some 40 children are
enrolled in the school. Officials
believe that an ideal capacity is
65. The peak enrollment was 82.
The school is open the year round.
By the Asaorlated Tress.
Nebraska towns have worked in
debate during their three weeks
at the University's fine arts
course.
