U.S. Campus Life Pleases
Former German Soldier
By Jerry Bailey
How does a foreign student re
act to life on an American
campus?
If he is the Juergen Herbst
type, he gets a great deal of en
joyment out of it.
Juergen Herbst, 22, was the
first German student to arrive
at the University campus in
1948. He was sponsored by the
American Friends Service com
mittee. As a former German sol
dier, he expected questions or
accusations. For a while, they
came.
"I am happy to say that I did
not meet anybody who remained
hostile or distrustful, after we
got to really know and under
stand each other," Herbst re
ported. "Life of the Party"
Says his roommate Gordon
Koelling, "Juergen seems to ab
sorb American ways very fast!"
Quite a few American girls will
agree. While one Herbst char
acteristic is a well-developed in
tellect, another is the ability to
enjoy life to the utmost. At
times he qualifies for the appel
lation, "life of the party."
One taste that Herbst has ac
quired is that for American
comic strips. Above his desk in
Geography building hangs a map
cf that Al Capp creation, Lower
Slobbovia.
A senior, Herbst majors in ge
ography and American studies.
His ambition is to return to Ger
many and teach American
courses at Munich. Recent lec
ture on German geography by
Herbst drew not only interested
students, but even a feminine
cheering section.
Varied Summers
Herbst has devoted his sum
mers to getting acquainted with
the United States. Among expe
riences that he might relate are
being entertained by a wealthy
Bostonian and working in a west
coast brickyard. He feels that
the west coast area appeals to
him the most.
As a soldier, Herbst fought the
British, and later learned Eng
lish from them. Friends mention
that Herbst's American speech
training sometimes slips and he
develops "the best Oxford ac
cent ever."
Herbst is active in the Cosmo
politan club, and is putting his
dramatic ability to work in the
Cosmo carnival. University
drama patrons may remember
his portrayal of the German pro
fessor in "Little Women." One
of his favorite activities is writ
ing. Writes on University Life
As a serious writer, Herbst
has had several accounts of
American university life pub
lished in Germany. Some of his
articles are currently circulating
through editorial offices in this
country. His observations on col-

lege life are analytical. Appar
ently one American custom that
makes Europeans smile is the
habit of making co-eds keep
hours. While Europe's high
schools are conducted much
more strictly than their Ameri
can counter-parts, European
universities allow students many
freedoms not customary here.
So while a policeman locks the
dorm door at 10:30 p. m. the
foreign student smiles.
Herbst's writings highlight the
part played by the University
in fostering international friend
ships. And he is always eager to
aid in the "hands across the sea"
line, himself.
Commenting on his impres
sions of America, Herbst has
many favorable things to say.
But as to American women:
"They are out more for a good
time . . . not likely to be as
faithful to one man as German
women. I think the average
middle-class girl here is frus
trated, between her desires and
her moral training." As to the
general public, Herbst notes
what he calls "a striking degree
of naivity." '
Favors Student ExrhanM
Juergen Herbst is an expo
nent of student exchange. He
writes, "Think of a farm boy . . .
his impressions of life have been
centering around corn, hogs, his
local drugstore and folks in the
country. Now on campus he will
meet people from all over the
world; he will have a chance to
talk with them, hear their prob
lems and ideas. Just imagine
yourself how this will widen his
horizon, how he will begin to
look at the world under differ
ent aspects, and how he will
benefit from this!
"At American universities the
youth of the world meets and
becomes friends. I can not think
of any other goal which is
worthier to be pursued, and
which is more important to work
for. The American universities
really do a magnificent job in
nrovidins opportunities for
meetings of this kind."
Assembly . . .
Continued from Page 1
Siam, asked the members of the
assembly to completely strike
out one point of the report on
the basis that it was "out of line
with the entire report."
"Not Protected"
The disputed point would re
quire nations receiving invest
ments to "provide access to raw
materials and markets on the
same terms as are accorded to
domestic enterprises."
Dugan maintained that the
provision would first, not pro
tect a country from practices
such as 'dumping;" and second,
that the report would mean
"closing the front door and
opening the back door to exploi
tation," Adjournment prevented action
on a United States proposal to
add a point to the report after
the approval of Dugan's motion.
Carnival Fun
Prevails at Ag
Side shows, games of skill, a
snack bar and dancing are all
part of the entertainment Friday
night at YW-YM Estcs Carnival.
Beginning at 8:30 p. m. in the
Ag college activities building,
the highlight of the evening will
come at 10 p. m., when the win
ning booth will be announced. A
traveling cup will be awarded
to the best booth on the basis
of originality, audience appeal,
attractiveness and organization.
Last year's cup was won by
Alpha Gamma Rho with the
booth, "Knock Sally Out of the
Sack." Ten campus organiza
tions have entered the competi
tion at the present time. Judging
will be done by Miss Ruth
Sninn, executive secretary of the
YWCA, and Mrs. C. W. Smith,
member of the YW board of ad
visors.
The carnival will help cover
expenses of sending University
delegates to the regional YM
YW conference at Estes Park,
Colo., from June 10 to 17.
Admission to the carnival is
two cents. This will be paid at
the door, where students will
get tickets in return to be used
as currency at various booths.

Spanish Film
Set for Friday
The Spanish !nguagc movie
"Dona Barbara," taken from a
novel which is called one of the
greatest pieces of contemporary
literature in that language, will
be shown for the second time
Fridav, March 24, at 7:30 p.m.
in Morrill hall auditorium. Tick
ets can be obtained at the door
or in room 326 of Burnett hall.
Sponsored by the foreign lan
guage department of the Uni
versity, the film previously was
mistakenly scheduled for March
24 and 25 by The Daily Nc
braskan. The dates should have
been March 23 and 24.
The writer of the novel on
which the play is based is Ro
mulo Gallegos, ex-president of
Venezuela. He published it in
1929. Dona Barbara, a strong
willed woman who drives men to
distraction so she can obtain
their property, is portrayed by
Maria Felix, often called the
"Hedv Lamarr of Latin Ameri
ca." It is said that Gallegos meant
for her to represent the lawless
ness of Gomez, former dictator of
Venezuela.

Tvo NU Debaters ?o Meet
Seo.vis.i Team March 29
The University of Nebraska
will debate the negative against
the Scottish Debating team in
the Union ballroom March 29 at
7:30 p. m. The question to be
debated is "That This House
Looks With Favor on the Revival
of Nationalism in Europe and
Asia."
The annual International De
bate will be continued this year
with the participation of two
students from the University of
Glasgow and Edinburgh who will
debate against two University of
Nebraska students.
The U. N. students are Rod
nev Lindwall and Jack Solomon.
The two Scottish students are
David D. T. Rcid of the Uni
versity of Glasgow and Malcolm
David Webster-Low of the Uni
versity of Edinburgh.
Lindwall is a senior in the
college of engineering and a
former graduate of Omaha Ben
son high school. He is president
for Tibet, as shown by Thomas,
is actually out of this world. In
the first place, only a few scenes
on the Tibetian army, which uses
World War I British uniforms
and obsolete equipment, remind
ed the audience that the country
is of strategic importance to
communist China.
Geographically speaking, too,
the country is almost out of this
world. The mountains of Tibet
are the earth's highest and most
of the inhabitants live 15,000
feet above sea level.
Isolated Population
The nation seems more out of
the world because its people
have deliberately' isolated them
selves as much a? possible from
other human beings. Only half a
dozen Americans have ever made
the trip to Tibet's chief city.
Thomas, with his radio com
mentator father, sought permis
sion to visit Tibet several years
ago when the Communists were
already making gains in China
and Tibet was endangered, the
Thomases received a royal invi
tation from the Delai Lama.
This, Thomas thought, perhaps
indicated a desire for American
friendship.
At any rate, tho Delai Lama,
a fifteen-year-old ruler, was
very kind to the two -Americans
during their stay In the country.
Among the pictures were several
of the youth's palace. Members
of the audience were struck by
the amazing likeness between
this palace and the buildings of
Shangri-La as described by
.Tames Hilton who never saw
Tibet, and as shown in the movie
version of his book "Lost Hor
izons." Thomas' appearance was spon
sored by the Black Masque chap
ter of Mortar Board.
