PAGE 4 THE DAILY NEBRASKAN Tuesday, June 13, 1950 All-Staters Sample College, Study Music, A rt a nd Speech By Donna Prescott "Do we have to get up?" is the cry of a sleepy All-Stater at 6:30 a. m. This starts a full day for these speech, art and music students. After many moans and groans they are all dressed and out for breakfast at 7:15. But at 8 a. m. there are still some late sleepers coming to get that certain something that starts the day off well. When 8 a. m. rolls around the first bell rings for the classes to begin. At little sophomore from outstate rushes into the class room 15 minutes late. He is out of breath and is glowing a bright red. His explanation is that his mother isn't here to call him and besides his alarm didn't go off. This innocent character wouldn't think of cutting the class like a college student would if he were going to be late. Orientation The typical day for the music students begins with a class in orientation. At 8:45 the vocalists and instrumentalists split up to work on their concert and re cital selections. The Social Science building fills with the familiar strains of "America the Beautiful" as the chorus starts work. The orchestra students move to the Temple and every one begins to tune their instru ments. The noise and confusion is broken by the appearance of the director who taps his baton and gives the cue to begin. There are no sour notes from these specialists . No day is complete without a history or theory class. So at 10:15 the boys and girls listen to a lecture. After his rest period the vocal and instrumental ensembles meet for 40 minutes practice. They work on such compositions as Loch Lomold, Deep River and Lazy Bones. After a hard morning's work everybody has a growling sto mach. Lunch is served in the XYZ dining room in the Union. By 1 p. m. all the pupils are ready to begin work again. Some of the more forunate ones won't have a class until later in the afternoon so they take off for a movie. Practice, Practice The band, choir and orchestra spend an hour each preparing selections for the scheduled con certs and recitals. If you should happen to pass by the Music School of the Temple building you can hear them using their lung power working on pieces by Bach, Simarosa and Gold mark. Everyone is interested in dance bands and the All-State clinic is not one to over look them. There was no urging needed for en rollment in this class with those who have aspiration of being a second Harry James or Gene Krupa. Again the stomachs are growling and dinner is served from 5:15 to 6 p. m. A full program Is planned after dinner and the concerts, plays and art exhibits are at tended. A dance for all students is held in the Union ballroom at 8:30 p. m. where the boys and girls mix and have a lot of fun. Maybe a shy young damsel will meet a gentleman who will walk her home when she has to be in by 10:15. Hit the Sack "Lights out!" is the call at 10:45 and the counselor makes the rounds to tuck everyone in bed. The All-Staters day was long and full of interesting work and play and they are all ready to hit the sack and glad of it. This is what a group of the All-Staters said about the clinic: "It is an insight to college life." Many of the All-Staters decide to attend the University because of the good times they have had down here on the campus during their three-week stay." Another said, "You make friends down here during All-State that will becomes your best friends for life." Everyone seems to be hav ing a good time and hoping to eome back, In learning truth you part with rror; in putting on the new life you put off the old; growth al ways mean death. - n r -r S ft pmjnm,mmKmma; w " ' ' if .' v . vase je T ( M&l.miM Btlmmmmi -mmm i T W HUH')" & if&.

Chadron led all cities in per centage advance with a 30.8 per cent rise in April business com pared with a year ago, and 4.1 percent rise over March,. Colum bus showed a 22.4 percent rise for April over a year ago. Retail sales in April were run ning about even with a year, ago, according to Dr. Edgar Z. Palmer of the college's Business Research department, with building mate rial dealers making the best rec ord, up 21 percent, due to the cur rent building boom. The March spurt in automobile sales in the state subsided in April. Dr. Palmer said a review of business statistics for Nebraska in March show the dollar volume of business was 222 percent and the physical volume of business was 86 percent ahead of the 1939 aver age in ' the state. Both of these gains were greater than the U. S. record. "It is generally agreed that the 'boom is on again' and the figures both for Nebraska and the United States are certainly in accord with this conclusion," Dr. Palmer said. "Every series in our indexes shows a gain form March over last year except those in the two fields of farm marketings and em ployment. These exceptions are serious. They indicate that the present prosperity is not well dis tributed. The farm population and the employees of business estab lishments constitute a large part of the population. Unless and un til these two classes share in it, the boom cannot be sound."
