Engineers

i Tours for Oct. 21

announced Monday, Oct. 24, as the
date all tours must be made.
It should be understood that this

sory for any one society to make
a tour.

Classified
With Tongue
In Cheek
By Cub Clem
The thundering guns of this summer's Daily Nebraskan
are quiet. Sarcastic murmurs from the student body are
stilled.
The tower is built.
The Mueller Carillon tower, as yet without its bells,
gathered its young strength late last week, shrugged off its
scaffolding and at last stood alone. And it was a sight be
hold. Even without landscaping, the white shaft that rises
between Bessey and Morrill halls is beautiful. And inspiring.
It is the eye-catching landmark this campus has so long
needed.
And so The Daily Nebraskan, a little shamefacedly per
haps, thanks the benefactor-alumnus who made the gift.
We are sure the students do the same.
NSA Again . . .
Richard J. Medalie, National Student Association vice
president for educational problems, is scheduled to speak to
interested students at 4 p.m. today in Room 105 of Social
Sciences.
That is the gist of a front page story in today's Daily
Nebraskan.
The story doesn't mention the row that hit this campus
two years ago when NSA petitioned for entry to NU, a peti
tion turned down by a narrow margin in the Student Coun-
en auer many neaiea aeoates, meetings and discussions.
The publicity release received by The Daily Nebraskan said
little of NSA's aims, or of the advantages of NSA member
ship. Two years ago, the student body didn't think jnuch of
these advantages. Nor did we. However, we hear that NSA
can now offer a few more things. We also hear that NSA
has lost its pinkish, internationally -controlled tinge. That's
what we hear.
If these reports are true, then NSA definitely bears
consideration. An organization such as the NSA could do
students a lot of good.
So The Daily Nebraskan would like to see many stu
dents at the speech today. The student might learn that NSA
can help a lot. Or they might not. Either way, NSA bears
scrutiny by all students interested in a better University.

Hope to Correct 'Evil'
"We are nil working to correct
an evil." said Dr. Colbert, "in the
expenditure of federal funds for
education that wasn't the original
intent of Congress, without jeo
pardizing rightful benefits of vet
erans now in school doing a good
job."
Under the directive, the Uni
versity official in charge of vet
erans affairs will examine veteran
students and give the University
approval or disapproval they now
give. But. instead of the Uni
versity being the final step in
authorization, the VA will now
double-check such requests. Their
decision may come after the be
ginning of work in a course and
may result in loss of fees and
subsistence to the veteran and
a loss of University payments, ex
plained Cfjlbort.
Uncertainty
It leaves the veteran uncer
tain about his educational op
portunities, said Colbert, as well
as leaving the University uncer
tain about its action on veteran
cases.
Dr. Colbert and other veteran
affairs directors of colleges in
the country will meet in Chicago
next month to discuss the direc
tive with VA officials. They will
seek to modify the ruling to make
it easier to administrate.
Action towards outlawing the
directive is taking definite shape,
according to veteran sources.
Many persons concerned with the
ruling are of the opinion that
it is a very bad instruction, com- 1
mented Colbert.
Two Bills In Congress
Meanwhile, two bills have been

submitted in Congress which
would repeal the directive and
hamstring any future attempts to
issue broad restricting regula
tions by the VA. Both bills are
in committee, one in the House
and one in the Senate. The first
was introduced by Rep. Orrin
Teague of Texas and the second
by Senator Robert Taft of Ohio.
Both bills re jilmost identical in
nature.
It is doubted in most circles
that either bill will be passed
by the Congress during this ses
sion. Opposition is expected from
such men as Rep. .John Rankin,
chairman of the veterans affairs
committe of the house, who is
described as "a long time bitter
foe of G. I. Bill benefits."
