Service to State Industries Bizad Aim
(This is the second of a series
of articles about colleges and
schools within the University.
The Daily Nebraska!! is attempt
ing to present the "dream," or
plans for expansion, either of
courses or of facilities within
the college or school.)
BY TOM RISCHE
Are human wants ever satis
fied? Apparently so, for the College
of Business Administration is
happy with its equipment and
classrooms. Its wish is not for
additions space or lab aids, but
to serve students and Nebraska
industries better, according to
Dean Earl S. Fullbrook.
The aim of the college Is to
place as many graduates as pos
sible in Nebraska and the sur
rounding area. Most graduates,
Fullbrook reported, are interested
in finding jobs in their home
state. They have been success
ful to a large degree.
Home Town Businesses
Many students in the college
enter businesses in their home
towns, frequently one built up by
their fathers or relatives. Al
though no figures are available,
Fullbrook estimated that a ma
jority of graduates remain in this
area.
The Business Administration
college hopes to be able to ex
pand in the field of research and
institutes to aid state businesses.
Although the program of insti
tutes was interrupted by the war
and by the heavy registration
that followed, the college wants
to build up the program again.
Among developments in this
field, was the recent Cost Re
duction conference sponsored by
the Bizad college in co-operation
with the Engineering college and
the Associated Industries of Ne
braska. Two prominent outstate
industrial consultants were
brought to the campus for the
meeting.
Monthly Publication
"Business in Nebraska," a
monthly publication presenting
business statistics for Nebraska,
showing comparisons with the
nation as a whole, is published
by the bureau of business re
search. Individual statistics for
some of the state's larger towns
are included in this bulletin.
A research bulletin on "Eco
nomic Problems of Clay Center,
Nebraska" will be published soon.
Dr. Edgar Z. Palmer, chairman
of the department of business
research, visited the town, and
Fifteen Groups
Enter Kenton
Ticket Contest
Fifteen men's organizations on
campus have entered the "Ken
ton" ticket sales contest accord
ing to Wendy Gauger, chairman
Of campus ticket sales.
The contest, sponsored by the
Union in connection of the Stan
Kenton concert to be presented
Feb. 22, will close Tuesday night,
Feb. 21 at 5 p. m. The organiza
tion selling the most tickets to
the concert will be host to June
Christy, featured vocalist on the
Kenton band, at dinner Wednes
day, Feb. 22.
Tickets, now on sale by house
representatives and at various
booths on campus, are priced at
$1.20 for students. However, this
reduced pric e is effective for
only those buying tickets previ
ous to the night of the concert.
"A capacity crowd of 8,000 is
expected at the concert Wednes
day night," said Paul Weltchek,
publictiy chairman. He also
urged the purchase of tickets
early on the part of students. "It
not only saves 60 cents, but in
sures a better seat at the con
cert," he said.
Several committees of students
have been working with the
Union in connection with the
concert. Herb Reese Is general
chairman of the Concert com
mittee, with Paul Weltchek as
publictiy chairman, Bob Axtell,
ticket sales chairman, and Mar
cai Pratt, arrangements.
Working under Weltchek on
the publicity campaign are Chuck
Weidmeier, Huh Follmcr, Rod
Itiggs. By Hooper, Knox Jones
and Norma Gammerl.

new arrangement vacations will
now include more weekends.

Ferguson hall, the new electri
cal engineering building which is
bein? erected in place of old Uni
versity hall, was discussed by
Trof. Olin J. Ferguson, after
whom the building was named,
at a recent meeting of the stu
dent A I E E.
Besides regular classrooms, the
building contains a power labo
ratory in the single-story north
wing which will house motors,
generators, transformers, and
other rotating equipment. This
wing will be separated from the
classroom section by a huge plate
glass window, so that equipment
may be viewed from outside the
lab.
The second floor, in ariditon to
more classroom space, will con
tain the offices of the dean of
the College of Engineering. Tele
phone, transmission, and televi
sion laboratories will be located
on the third floor.
The astronomy department will
have part of the roof area of the
building. There will be several
special laboratories and a student
meeting room in the basement.
