Snow Fun

1
BIRTH OF A SXOWMAX A snowman begins to take form as
Thorn Snyder, Joan Hanson and Jack Greer roil up large snow
balls. The first real snow of the season was ideal for making
snowballs and snowmen, since it was very wet This is one of
.Nebraska's earliest snows.
Big Snow
Confusion,
Many University students
found it exceptionally hard to get
out ol bed Wednesday morning.
"When the alarm clocks on cam
pus started ringing at 7 a. m.
yesterday there was something in
evidence that kept many stu
dents in bed
Are you one of those who suc
cumbed to the weather and de
cided to forget classes for the
morning? Or are you one of the
few who noticed nothing unusual
and climbed out of the sack on
time?
For those of you who have no
idea what possibly could keep
any energetic student from at
tending Wednesday morning
classes here's the explanation.
A very light wet snow was
Jailing by a. m. Anyone who
went to bed with the windows
wide open awoke to an icy room
or dorm.
Putting your feet .down on the
freezing floor was a task that re
quired much determination and
nerve. It was much easier to
holler to your Toommate to close
the windows and to snuggle down
in the covers again.
Some Succeed
Tor those who did succeed In
leaving the warm blankets, great
effort was needed to stay up in
stead of jumping .quickly back
into bed.
Taking a look out of the win
dow didn't help to encourage
people to brave the out-of-doors
for that early class.- The side
walks, streets, trees and lawns
were covered with a dismal
looking snow. Anyone who al- !
readdy was out on the street j
looked like they were having j
much difficulty in keeping books,
coats and themselves intact
while getting to class.
And so now came the real test.
Those who really are students,
those "who know true suffering,
went their lonely way to class
on a cold, bleak-looking morn
ing. Confusion Present
Sitting in class on a day like
"Wednesday was no easy accom
plishment. Trying to keep your
coat from falling on the floor,
Temembering in which pocket
you put your pencil and brush
ing the 'moisture off of your
books was not exactly conducive
to listening to a lecture.
Sloshing around campus be
tween classes made many stu
dents conscious of awfully wet
feet Probably many letters home
this week pleadingly will ask
parents to send overboots and
winter coats right away.
About 10 a.m. a fluffy beavy
now started falling. This seemed
to raise student spirit a bit. The
snowflakes stuck to the trees and
bushes and made the campus

look juile pretty.
Surprised Looks
Students leaving a building
caught surprised glances of peo
ple coming into the building
with coats covered with snow
and wet faces and books. Those
who had been inside for an hour
immediately began pulling their
coats closer around them pre
paring to brave the wintery
weather.
Naturally, not an University
students formed an attitude of
disgust toward the weather.
Many were .quite pleased by the
change from cold, windy days to
one of white, pretty snow.
It's just that a quick change
in weather can produce an
equally sudden change in the at
titude of students. There's an
immediate sense of lun in the
air, to know that everyone is
getting wet Everyone else is
having the same problems as a
result of Lincoln's first big snow.

"AUTHORS OF THE AGES"
will do something new this week
in that no play will be produced.
Rather, under the direction of
Mr. Jorgensen, Authors will nar
rate "Ballad of

shortly after
serving a two
year prison
term in Read

n a rrative,
based upon
the hanging of
Charles T.
id
Epstien
Wooldridge for the murder of his
wife, serves merely as the frame
work for the revelation of Wilde's
personal agonies. The poem re
sembles the ballad stanza form
and the use of repetition. The
story, however, is told not in the
objective manner traditional of
the ballad, but with tin intense
subjectivity which ends on a
note of passionate exhortation.
The four narrators for the
poem are: Jack Lange, John
Woodin, Janice Crilly, and Pat
Loder. To add to the effect a
musical background will be pro
vided. Authors can be heard at
8:05 tonight over KFOR.

By Ralph Garner
(Guest Reviewer)
A few short months ago Mac
millan's published a book. That
fact isn't surprising because
Macmillan's publish a hundred
or more books per year. This
book, however, created quite a
stir in American educational
circles.
American educational circles
are always being stirred up about
something or other. In this in
stance, though, they used their
combined strength to apply a
kind of "censorship" that borders
on dangerousness.
The book in question was sell
ing remarkably well. It had cap
tured the public fancy. It was
one of the best contracts from
a financial standpoint that the
Macmillan company had affixed
its stamp of approval to in
several years. Despite these fac
tors, Macmillan was forced to
sell publishing and distribution
rights to a competitive firm.
Why?
The Macmillan company has
built a justifiable reputation for
publishing textbooks of high
quality. Immanuel Velkovksy's
"Worlds in Collision" purported
to be a well-documented, popu
lar scientific text There were
nearly as many footnotes as there
expository paragraphs. But the
footnotes themselves were not as
authentic as they might have
been.
Ergo, the educators of the na
tion took up arms. By means of
insinuations and hinted threats
they effectively forced Velikov
sky's discoverers to regret their
sagacity.
It seems to me that this is a
type of censorship which might
well backfire. Perhaps the edu
cators and other professional
men should look to their writine
! habits. If what haDDend lo
"Worlds in Collision" can be con
sidered representative of what
can happen to any popularized
version of a scientific matter,
professional men are .destined to
continue to write for the love of
writing rather than for dissem
ination of information,

others who suffer less from
ethic-neurosis, and who have
Jess of a grasp of scientific
truth, will count the people's
pulse.
If the professional group
wishes to censor the publishers
who choose to print popularized
scientific "texts," they will find
themselves without a means of
communication when they do
finally realize that people' gen
erally will not swallow techni
cal lingo in mass quantities.
YM to Show
German Film
On Two Davs
"Th Affair Rlum" -.,.V,;V,
whl be shown at Love brarv
auditorium Nov. 10 and 11 at
8 p. mM is hailed as one of the
outstanding German postwar film
produced so far, by current
magazines.
The movie is brought to Uni
versity students by the YMCA.
Admission is 65 cents.
The story is one concerning
anti-semitism in Germany in
1926 and in particular is the story
of Dr. Jacob Blum, a Jewish in
dustrialist, who is accused of em
bezzlement but eventually winds
up with a murder charge. The
prejudice and corruptness of the
German officials in' this true
story indicate just how Nazism
started and how it grew.
Detective Story
"The Affair Blum" is a de
tective story with a complicated
plot simply told. It also has a
sociological content
The plot centers around the
case built .up by the police, al
ready beginning to feel an inter
est in anti-semitism, to involve
and convict an innocent man on
numerous charges. However,
there is one detective who rates
his sense of duty above preju
dice and goes about proving the
real nature of the crime, thus
saving Dr. Blum from the fate
that would have been his six or
seven years later.
Acting Good
Although the actors are Ger
man and unknown, their per
formances are first-rate and help
make this film one of the most
convincing ever produced, say
magazine reviews.
Director Erich Engel is also to
be given credit for turning out
such a moving picture and for
convincing all that "it could hap
pen any place."

Enrollment Drop
Revealed bv VA
The Veterans Administration
has reported that the enrollment
of veteran in Nebraska colleges
and universities this fall is down
1 39.73 percent from the iall en
rollment of 1949.
Ashley Westmoreland, Tjncoln
regional office manager, said a
total of 4.390 veterans were re
ported studying at institutions
of higher learning under the G.I.
Bill as of October 31, 1950. Since
the enactment of the G.l. Bill in
June of 1944 an estimated 62,330
Nebraska World War II veter
ans have received some form of

measure.
For the majority of veterans
the deadline for starting G.l.
Bill training is July 25, 1951,
Westmoreland reminded veter
ans that they must have started
and be pursuing their courses by
that date if they want to con
tinue their training after the
deadline.

Clothes Important for Guys
Aiming to Escort Chic Dates
By Bev Hat an
Fellas, are you getting a com
plex because all the other guys
get good-looking dates? Are you
the type that ends up with a
blind date who's twice as big as
you?
You have a problem'! But you
aren'i a lost cause. Look your
self over and see what is the
difficulty.
A recent survey proved that
girls prefer sharp looking men
a thousand to one. Females
dream ol a prince charming who
doesn't look like something out
of a nightmare. So take a look
at the guys who have girls fol-
lowing them and you'll see that thc giris jf you starl drop
clothes count '. ping tubtle hints to the gals
If vou have big shoulders like ! right, you may get one for birth-
Bill Scott you won't have to
worry about that broad look. But
if -vou are naturally thin don't
have your shoulders padded like
a football player. In this case
: the "zootsuit" big shoulder jacket
is out
Notice Frank Scbuchart dash

it's real cold the mouton collar

Players' Ja-ekets
; Many football players wear
1 zip-lined coats. They're practi
cal since they can be worn when
its cool or cold. Could it be that
; zip-lined coats are the reason
for football players' popularity,

put the top oi his convertible up

checked raincoats that he can
wear when it rains or as a top

Play it smart like Dob Dut

jackets. You'll look different
every time you pick up your

If you're getting tired of cuff

The next time you're around

If you ha vent already, you
better get busy and find vourself

don't disappoint her by wearing
