Our Mistakes . . ,
People always criticize newspapers and The Daily
Nebraskan is no exception. We make mistakes, many of
them inexcusable. Reporters misinterpret facts, notices
are left out, or we put the wrong time and place for the
meeting.
The editorial staff of The Daily Nebraskan is glad
students complain, because it is only through these com
plaints that we can correct our errors, and bring to the
students a better paper. In the selection of news stories,
we try to be impartial, and give every organization its due
amount of publicity. There is an old newspaper theory that
a press is only as free as the people want it to beand
only as bad as the people allow it to be.
As a member of the Associated Collegiate Press, the
Daily Nebraskan is rated each semester along with other
college newspapers throughout the country. It is critically
examined and evaluated by an independent board of men,
at the University of Minnesota, who are qualified in the
field of journalism to pass on the merits of college papers.
When the ACP announced, last week, its ratings for
the spring semester, 1950, The Daily Nebraskan received
the next to the highest rating possible first class.
We are proud of this rating. Last spring, an experi
ment with the seven-column paper offered a challenge
to the staff, regulated and accustomed to a tabloid paper.
We feel the big size has proved its merit through the. in
creased news and feature coverage.
The purpose of The Daily Nebraskan is to print news
students on campus want to read about meetings they go
to, events they take part in, and about the many sidelights
of campus life which go to make up "college."
We have a Letterip column provided for the expres
sion of student opinion. If we miss something, or are
wrong about something, we want to know about it. With
the help of the students on campus, The Daily Nebraskan
will become what it strives to be a paper for the expres
sion of student life and news. n.c.

A Heritage
With all this fighting and uncertainty going on now
m the world, we in America would do well to stop a while
and think how fortunate we are.
Contrast our way of living with that in many other
countries. In some is found armed violence; in some pov
erty; in others a political animosity which does not lend
itself to helping other people to live peacefully together.
Here we enjoy our personal liberty, our schools and
all our chances. Here we can think for ourselves, make
our decisions, and stick to them. We work where we want
to, vote as we wish, do as we want to do.
Qur blessings are many. They go all the way from
our way of voting to our ability to go to the stores and
buy almost anything we want
But strangely enough, all this doesn't seem to register
with us. We're so used to our way of life that we don't
think how life would be otherwise. How we gripe about
our government, and how many times we hear criticism
on some way something is being run.
Even this fussing is indicative of our wray of life in
America. Where ilse in the world could you sound off
about the things you don't like, and be allowed to do it
safely?
Where else could you enjoy what we have in our
country? Besides, do any of us really have too much
trouble with the things we really gripe about?
Maybe when we start to do some of this talking about
how we dislike something or other, we could stop and take
a moment to realize we really do have things pretty good.
Especially now, with most of the world in a turmoil of
war, can we count our many blessings of freedom. (Re
printed from the Kansas State Daily.)

By Art Epstien
To pick records that everyone
from the campus will enjoy read
ing about is, of course, impos
sible. However I will continue to
do my best to
relate to you
the waxingsof
the best songs
and by the ar
tists that I
feel that you
will like t o
know about.
A young ar
tist who is fast
becoming rec
ognized in the
field of re
cording is Jer- Epstien
ry Grey, who now has a band of
his own, was onec an arranger
for the late Glenn Miller. Al
though Jerry disliked "cashing
in" on Miller styling, he decided
to do so rather than have the
many make shift bands ruining
the fame of so great a man. Grey
has successfully contacted on the
disc the old Miller styling by
cutting "Crew Cut". Producing
the "Real Stuff", Jerry Grey has
kept the idea of rich bodied or
chestration, featuring resonant
reeds on the slow pieces, and
hard hitting, deep-driving brass
on the rhythm side. You can hear
all this when you listen to "Crew
Cut , a solid instrumental with
a tone and touch easily recog
nized with an enthusiastic re
sponse. Most popular record artist ov
er Muzak this week is KAY
STARR. This week Miss Starr is
featured on records that all have
a message especially for the
men. Such recordings as "You
Gotta Buy Buy for Your Baby",
"A Woman Likes To Be Told",
and "You Gotta See Your Mama
Every Night", are constantly be
ing heard over the Program Ser
vice. With the help of Paul De
Vol the records are not only
meaningful, but are also great
listening.
A cute little ditty about an
Irish Coleen that is making the
rounds of the local juke boxes is
the record "Patricia". I am in
clined to agree with the group cf
people that feel that "Patricia"
will soon be on the top of the Hit
Parade. Best release to date is
the disc with Mitchell Ayres or
chestra and chorus featuring
Perry Como on the vocal.
Modern jazz is always in de
mand by some of the populace.
If you fall into this category al
low me to recommend LENNIE
TRISTANO and his quintet. Tris
tano, a blind pianist, boosts for
his crew such great side men as
Lee Konitz, alto; Bill Bauer, gui
tar; Arnold Fishken, bass and
Shelly Manne on the drums.
Combining all this talent Tris
tno has made modern jazz reacli,
a new peak for popular record
ing. Switching from records to ra
dio, station KNU has started its
broadcasting to the Union lounge.
Today's offerings will be "Sweet
and Lowdown", which is re
corded from hte dream ballads to
modern jazz: "Sue and Bob Live

Bulletin Board
Articles have appeared in The
Daily Nebraskan concerning what
the freshmen think of the Uni
versity of Nebraska. Here are
some varied opinions of the same
question coming from the seniors.
These campus personalities,
after being here for three years
and now on the threshold of
graduation, express their ideas as
follows:
"The University is a fine up
standing institution where 1 have
had memories I shall never for
get" Jo Lisher.
"It Is better than the Army!"
Bill Dugan.
"It is an education in itself to
come West to school. I have
learned more about the farm peo
ple by living with them and can
now understand their problems.
I think it would be swell if the
people from the West could go
East to school so they could learn
why there are coal and steel
Strikes." Bob "Moon" Mullins.
Friendly Campos
"From the stand -point of a
transfer student it is a very
friendly campus. Personally I
thick it is a swell place to go to
schooL" Molly Brittenham.
"The morals of the University
are very high and it is not the
party school that the other uni
versities re!M Jerry Ewing.
"After serving my country
during World War II at Kearney,
Neb., I thought it fitting to spend
my college days at the state
school (University of Nebraska
not reform school), or are they
synonomous. During my three
and one-half year tenure at this
i institution iny life has been com
j pletely changed. I've learned how
j to mix. How and what I mix is
none of your business." Hank
I Cech.
1 Thus say the university seniors.
1 'Mums' Displayed
At Ag Orchard
Sunday was "mum day" at the
University Ag college.
The Department of Horticul
ture issued a blanket invitation
to the public to come out to the
campus from 1 to 5 p.m., Sun
day, to view a small test plant
ing of chrysanthemums. The
mums now are at their peak.
A total of 416 plants were
seen at the University orchard.
Nine varieties are included and
17 seedlings. All are being grown
for testing under local condi
tions. The plants were all de
veloped by Glenn Viehmeyer,
University substation at North
Platte.
The mums are planted along
the orchard drive. All shades of
color are represented in the ver
ities and seedlings.
