Their terms concern an elec tion within the country, com munist troops withdrawal behind the 38th parallel, and United States confining forces to the Pusan bridgehead. It has been said that this peace proposal has been forwarded to the Indian ambassador at Peiping via the Chinese communist regime. The North Korean authorities suggest that United Nations forces other than the United States and Korea, occupy the area of South Korea. The United States would be allowed a post on the southern-most beachhead. The outline of the proposal was roughly in line with the United Nations war aims. On June 25, the day the communist forces crossed the 38th parallel, the se 'v.rity council asked the North Koreans to cease fire and with draw to the parallel again. Elections If and when action takes place the commission was empowered to go to Korea and observe the withdrawal of the American and Russian occupation troops and to supervise free and democratic elections throughout the country. Russia thought differently and now the commission will only observe the elections which will take place in the South Korean capitol of Seoul. This possible peace agreement has not been confirmed by the Indian council who is apparently t,.e "go-between." In Washington President Tru m.n signed "the $17,099,902, 285 dc.cnse bill Wednesday.

State Budget In the state it is reported that their budget is going up and the board of control needs 10 percent or a little more to meet the agencies spending. Requests for funds for the next two years are being made by the institutions now under the boards control. Mrs. Prince, vice-president of the board says "wages and food costs are tip. With the opening of new building at several institutions, we'll have a great population to care for." The institutions under the boards jurisdiction are: Geneva girls training school, Grand Island soldiers and sailors home, Kear ney industrial school, Milford home for unwed mothers, Omaha school for the deaf, Lincoln home lor dependent children, and the Lincoln reformatory. The Lincoln State hospital has not submitted their report of expenses. G.I. Bill Aids 60,215 Vets In Nebraska An estimated 60, 215 Nebraska World War II veterans have taken some kind of education and training under the G.I. bill since it became law in June 1944. This was revealed in a report released by Ashley Westmore land, regional office manager for the Veterans Administration.

The peak year for veterans at the University was the first se mester of the 1947-48 school year when 5,603 veterans were regis tered in school. Present enroll ment is approximately 1,920 ex cluding medical college enroll ment. Deadline Told In issuing the report, West moreland reminded all veterans who plan to initiate or resume G.I. bill training that it must be started before July 25, 1951. The veteran must actually be in train ing on that date, and must com plete his education by July 25, 1956. The Nebraska veteran enroll ment by semesters: (First semes ter, second semester). 1944-45: 125, 138; 1945-46: 401; 2,395; 1946-47: 4,500 (average for year only); 1947-48: 5,603; 5,289; 3948-49: 4,915; 4,426; 1949-50: 3,808; 3,439 and 1950-51: 1,920 (estimated). Builders Announce . . . 3 'College Days' Chairmen Named Three chairmen for College Days have been named by Gene Berg, general chairman of the celebration and president of Builders. They are: Bull Dugan, who will serve as assistant general chair man; Susan Reed, open house chairman; and Joan Krueger, publicity chairman. "The three are the first mem bers of the central committee which will direct planning and execution of College Days to be held April 26 to 28," announced Berg. "Others will be named soon so that work on the project can begin at once." Other appointments will in clude personnel chairman, secre tary, business manager and heads of numerous special events as well as top level assistant chair men for central committee jobs. To Assist Berg As assistant general chairman Dugan, past Builders board mem ber and one of the first students to begin work on the College Days plan, will assist Berg and help formulate plans. According to Berg, "Dugan will help to co at &s&tr4&m)mm(mn inwi 4sj!owm Krueger Reed ordinate the multitulinous details such a plan will of necessity en tail." Commenting on the project, Dugan urged cooperation of all campus leaders, organizations and faculty in order to make College Days as successful as the ; University of Colorado's CU Days and Iowa State's Veishea. "We hope the project will be educa tional, first of all," said Dugan, "and secondly publicize the Uni versity, especially to high school students." Miss Reed will be in charge of organizing and coordinating open houses in all colleges, schools, divisions and departments, as well as Student Health, the ath letic department. Union, Love library and Morrill hall, and campus residences and meeting rooms Exhibits, Demonstrations She will present a plan for the open houses to the deans at Dean Roles Assigned To Students In 'Antigone9 Twelve students have been as signed roles in the University Experimental Theater's produc tion, "Antigone." . The cast is as follows: Denny Vernon, chorus; Jan Crilly; Anti gone; Rosanna Lock, nurse; Marilyn Morgan, Ismene; Dick Carson, Haemon; Jim Tomasek, Creon; Dutch Meyer, first guard; Wes Jensby, second guard; David Sisler, third guard; Sid Ruben, messenger; Harold Storm, page, and Marty Miller, Eurydice. Dean Graunke is director of the production while William Ellis is technical director and Christine Phillips is production manager. In the play, the two sons of Oedipus, late king of the ancient Greek city of Thebes, starts a civil war where both are killed. Their uncle, Creon, bomes regent. The play version of the ancient Greek legend comes from a Paris production that was under the rule of the Nazis during the last war. The production is parallel to modern times in parts. Creon orders that one of the brothers who had in his opinion started the civil war, be left un buried. Antigone, unable to al low this, covers the body of her brother. Creon has her buried alive for punishment. This brings about the death of his son, who was in love with Antigone, provokes his wife to kill herself, and eventually causes his own ruin. Berg Announces Board Changes Three changes on the Builders board have been announced by Gene Beg, president of the or ganization. Ann Barger, former Builders art chairman, has taken over the job of membership chairman va cated by the resignation of Bill Dugan. Ann Jane Hall will head a committee which will be a com bination of two former commit tees, calendar sales and art.

Thompson's, meeting early in October. Planning for exhibits, displays and demonstrations, in coopera tion with deans, directors and student groups of the various units will also be a job of the open house chairman. Staffs will be organized by Miss Reed to assist her. She plans to use student executive boards or department honoraries as much as possible in the actual carrying out of the project. Her assistants will serve in a super visory capacity. An open house booklet explain ing the different open houses during College Days will be pub lished under supervision of Miss Reed and her assistants. The open houses in many parts of the University, explains Berg, are still subject to the decision of the deans and their depart ment heads, and student leaders. "A great deal of time and ef fort," says Berg, "will of course go ir'- this phase of College Days since is the backbone of the whok ffair, especially as it regaro. visiting high school stu dents. It is, in addition, the means of acquainting faculty members and students on campus with the various parts of the University." Success of Project "Success of a really significant College Days hinges on the ac tion of deans and all other levels," realize Berg and Miss Reed. Miss Krueger will direct pub licity in all media on campus, in Lincoln and throughout the state. She will assume the task of "selling" the College Days idea to students, faculty, local citi zens, alumni, friends, high school officials and students. A concentrated publicity cam paign telling the purposes and plans of the proposed three day event will be carried out by the publicity chairman. According to Miss Krueger: "This Builders project must be publicized to the point where College Days will gain as much attention and attendance as do Iowa State's and the University of Colorado's similar celebra tions." "The project is so giant," she points out, "that to get the idea across to all Nebraskans, College Days must be enthusiastically backed fiist of all by campus leaders and officials." In announcing the three Col lege Days heads, Berg said they were selected on the basis of capability, interest and ability to perform the particular job for which they vere considered.

Ample time will be provided after the luncheon program for those attending to arrive at the Stadium before kick-off time. The Innocents decided that a revival of the event was in or der since fathers are in a pos ition, as taxpayers, to influence the school's policy. Therefore, the society thought a special day should be set aside for students to honor their fathers. After the plan was initiated, Director Clark stated: "Dad's Day is a tribute to fathers of Nebraska students who are often forgotten in the rush of college ! life." i The occasion also gives the fathers an opportunity to meet I informally and to get a closer look at the college life that their i sons lead. i 1 n rulvaney, Wilcox, ubka Get Officers for the coming year were elected yesterday afternoon in the first meeting of the Student Council.

Jobs Available For Student Radio Writers Did you ever wonder how your favorite disc jockey could make so many clever remarks? In reality he doesn't. It is the continuity writers of that par ticular station. Continuity writing is an art where the complete unity of a station is compiled. It takes care of all the advertisements that are heard during station breaks, the spot news flashes, or any thing linking the various pro grams together. It also takes care of the opening and the clos ing of the day for any station. At the University there is an open field for continuity writing. Anyone interested in writing continuity should see Soralee Sokolof, continuity editor, Tem ple building. Purpose of continuity writing at the university is to aid the Uni versity's daily broadcasts held from 3 to 5 p.m., daily at the Temple building and the Union on station KNU. The daily broadcasts are con ducted as a part of practical ra dio training for students en rolled in the University. It gives an opportunity to put theory into practice by operating for two hours daily a simulated broad casting schedule which parallels the type of programing heard on an actual professional station. Broadcasts offer incentive to the participating students by as suring them an actual audience.

Nibler, two University extension dairy specialists, have geen hon ored by the Nebraska Federation of Artificial Breeders at their an nual meeting. They received recognition for outstanding contributions to the dairy industry of the state. Law ritson received a plaque for 33 years of continued interest in Nebraska dairy held improve ment. Both received checks for $65, gifts from the state feder ation and local dairy breeders associations. Panel discussions filled the mornings portion of the breeders' annual meeting moderated by C. W. Nibler. During the afternoon session, R. W. Seath, manager of the Southern Minnesota Breeding federation, Owatonna, Minn., spoke on "What's Ahead in Artificial Breeding." According to Seath, artificial breeding of dairy cows is now a "big industry" with an esti mated income to the associations of $15,500,000. He estimated the number of dairy cows that will be bred artificially in 1950 at 3,500,000. "And" points out Seath, "that's only the beginning. Iff a new industry." Artificial breeding of dairy animals was introduced into the United States in 198 and was used first in New Jersey. To date, eleven and one-half per cent of all dairy herds in the United States are using artificial breed ing methods. During these years the breeding associations have improved herds and as a result of herd improvement have in creased the production of dairy products.
