Symphony Schedules
Annual Fall Concert
"A little borrowed, not too
blue; a little of the old, a little
tf the new."
This was the octry offered by
Emanuel Wishnow, University
Symphony Orchestra director, as
lie described the music that will
be provided when his group
teams up with Dorotha Powers,
guest violinist at the annual Fall
Concert. The program is sched
uled for Sunday, Nov. 20.
Wishnow explained that the
music has been selected to appeal
to all types of music lovers.
The celebrated center of attrac
tion, Miss Powers, will give sev
eral solo renditions on her famous
$40,000 Stradivarius. Well-known
throughout the nation, she has ap
peared in 500 concert programs,
including 60 at universities and
colleges. Last summer, she was
featured with the famous Boston
Symphony Orchestra at the Berks-hire
Festival, held each year in
honor of Nathaniel Hawthorne.
This year will mark the fourth
annual orchestra appearance with
a solo artist.
Wishnow added that the Uni
versity orchestra was accorded
national recognition after the past
two fall programs with their
sponsorship of guest soloists. Spi
vakovsky and Markevitch. Wish
now expressed the hope that Miss
Towers would be as well received
as the past artists.
Wishnow anounced that the fol
lowing students have been chosen
as members of this year's sym
phony. Violins Aleta Snell. Kathleen
Forbes. Norman Splittgei ber,

Well the big week has come
and gone. Sure was a lot to see
and do. Really kept us humping
to get everyplace.
After dedicating, rallying, and
seeing the Homecoming decora
tions, we thought the Union
dance seemed just the place to
finish up the evening in the right
spirit. Evidently a lot of other
people had the same idea as a
record crowd was there. How
ever, as usual, there was an
abundance of males. Now you
gals should get on the ball. There
are some purty nice looking guys
just waiting to meet you. That's
what the hosts and hostesses
are for formal introductions.
This party was even so popular
that it had everything from
artists sketching it to various
people trying to crash the gates.
Blood was even shed. Seems like
they will do anything to get to a
Union dance.
To you, Sigma Nus and
Gamma Phis, the firsts couldn't
have gone to a more deserving
bunch. And congratulations too
to Shirley Allen, Nebraska uni
versity's new royalty.
Now we take time out to pat
ourselves on the back remember
we once mentioned talent show
in our column a while back.
Sunday night hit the jack pot.
Six hundred and fifty people, no
less, applauded the evening away.
George Wilcox and Bob Smahas'
MCing lent that professional
touch anyway it was funny.
M. J. Rooney added glamour as
the card changer. She was the
hit of the show.
To Innocent Rex Pettijohn; Jan
Cochran, Mortar' Board, and
Janette Dolizol from the School
of Music was given the tough
job of judging. Dorothy Elliott
topped 'em all with her marimba.
It's amazing how that gal can
handle those sticks or whatever
you call them. Pat Dutton is the
funniest thing to hit campus for
a long time, and really deserved
her second. A little on the more
serious side was Gladys Novolny's
piano solo. Very nice also was
Atkinson-Grainger, piano duo,
and Rose Beatter's dancing.
Incidemly Charlie Widmaier
and Bob Mosher did a grand job
lining up the show.
This week the Union seems to
be opening its doors to other
student activities. Wednesday
night giils will envade the place
by droves foY the Coed Counselor
Friendship dinner. It will also
play host to a aistinguished M.P.,
Member Parliament to vou at a
convocation Tuesday and on the
week end to a big ISA. conven
tion. There is never a dull ' or un
used moment at your "home
away lrom home." Bye now.

To the Students and Faculty of this University:

should know that the All University Fu-d drive will be conducted
during the week of November 7th. ....

on the campus, and for the aid of
of Sind, Karachi, Pakistan.
All rf von I am sure, find the
cision of the World Student Service
nhlP to the vcrv needv students at
of the high points of the 1949 ALT
be proud that on our campus are student leaders who recognize ineir
responsibility of world citizenship.
You know better than any one else how much you can afford to
give to the All University Fund. No quota has been set. Whatever sum
the campaign raises will be a measure of how big the Cornhusker
heart really is. The AUF's cause is worthy. The campaign puts us to a
test of conscience and citizenship. I am certain that we will not fail
that test, but the performance is up to us.

Dear Editor:
Could we straighten out a misconception that is prevalent on our
campus? "The Scarlet and Cream" "Come a-runnlug. boys, etc.," is
our Alma Mater song, during the playing and singing ol which we rise.
It is heard all too seldom in recent years. "Dear Old Nebraska U" is a
good song, but as far as I know.it has not been designated the song of
the University of Nebraska. Some of cheer leaders seem to be mixed up,
and of course the other students usually follow their example.
The third line of "Hail to the team'' should be sung "Cheers for a
victory echo our loyalty," instead of "Fight on to victory, echo our
loyalty," which doesn't make sense. The "Fight on to ictory" line
comes later in the song.
Of the two mistakes I've mentioned, the first is more important,
of course.
Sincerely yours,
Mrs. Don Prince

Ca lied 'Essen tia I 'Need
BY PAI L WIECK
"We are just beginning to
emerge out of the terrible and
confused situation of the last few
months and we are just organizing
ourselves. You have come in time
not a day too soon."
These words come to us from j
Pakistan, where the money col
lected at the University of Ne-1
braska by ALT will go to aid j
students. . j
An extensive survey of student;
needs tliroushout the world for i
the next year has been completed,
and as a result a number of nec
essary projects have been planned.
One is for a hostel fur students
at Karachi. Pakistan. $2000 to be
collected at Nebraska will go to
this projert.
The need in Pakistan -.nel In- i
dia is an aftermath of the newly
acquired political freedom of those
coui:ti ic-s. Following the separa
tion many refugees fled from one
to the other. This rulted in dire
cirmustances for students in par
ticular. Many of the best .scholars
were forced to stop their studies
because of stringent financial cir
cumstances. Books were lost and
dozens found themselves without
living quarters.
The needs in Fakistan are
many. Medical aid, sc-If-h e 1 p j
se he.larships.the student hostel, :
care for TB cases, chemical sup- j
plies, equipment for training i
classes, and books are absolute es-
sentials if their colleges are even i
to continue operating. Already the
lack of these have cut the enroll- I
ment in half at some institutions, j
Of some $341,000 to be used I
throughout the world by U'SSF j
during the coming year, only
$7,000 is earmarked exclusively
for Pakistan. Besides this, some
$13,000 will go to aid TB cases in
all of Asia. This makes Nebraska's
contribution particularly impor
tant. While we are asked to give
only a small portion of the over
all total, without our aid the pro
gram in Karachi will not be able
to function. These figures repre
sent an absolute minimum and
much more is needed. To ade
quately meet the worldwide need,
$600,000 is needed. Of this, about
$150,000 would go to various
countries in Southeast Asia.
The funds are being allocated
wherever the need is most acute
and the principle of equality of
need has again been accepted in
dividing the money between the
three sections, Europe, China and
the rest of Asia.
Chemical supplies are particu
larly needed by the Chemical In
fctitute of Punjab University,

the University of Sind. that is one
campaign. All of us have reason to
where a disastrous fire during the
riots destroyed much of the stock
and laboratory in Lahore. Sup
plies for typewriting classes for
refugee students are urgently
needed. I'nder the WSSF plans,
each refugee student will learn
some vocational work, such as
typewriting.
