Nfgs O YMCA to Show 'Affair Blum' Nov. 10, 11 The "Affair Blum," a German film sponsored by the YMCA, will be shown at Love Library auditorium Nov. 10 and 11 at 8 p.m. Admission is 65 cents. The story is based on a series of incidents that actually took place during the depression of the twenties in Germany. A bookkeeper is only willing to ac cuse Dr. Jacob Blum, whom the police suspect of wanting to kill the bookkeeper. The fact that Blum is Jewish incites the police and several higher-ups to suspect the worst of him in matters of in come tax evasion, and even mur der. Action is built up by officials, in a country beginning to feel an interest in the swastika Tacism, who built up a case against Blum based on the murderer's testi mony and circumstantial evi dence. The film's suspense fol lows when Blum's defenders bring in a detective from another city. AD Characteristics The "Affair Blum" has all the properties of typical crime-and-detection suff mixed with soci ological content which is com plicated but told carefully. Director Erich Engel and his staff turn out a film which, al though produced in the Soviet part of Germany, obviously car ries no anti-Soviet propaganda and makes a strong plea for jus tice. The movie can not be taken lightly for many of the things it points out about Germany in 1926 might well be kept in mind Tight here and now.

ISA Good Idea, Students Admit in Poll But Few Want to Become Everybody thinks that ISA is a good idea, but very few want to join. This was indicated in a Daily Nebraskan poll taken Thursday Rag interviewers questioned a number of independent students in order to get their reactions. Of those interviewed, approxi mately 85 percent were not ac tive members of ISA. Nearly every person inter viewed expressed the opinion that there was a definite need for such an independent organi zation for other students.' One student said that he thought that if a student wants to join an organization, he could Join a fra ternity or sorority. He felt that the independents needed no or ganization. When asked why they had not joined ISA, the students replied: "I haven't got the time." "Just aiever got around to it." "I've never been asked." "I haven't decided what, ac tivities I want to get into yet." "Doesn't every independent automatically belong?" "I never heard of the organi- i zation. What does it do?" "I came to school to study, not to party all the time." I w.J RH Pk 'Lif e9 Photog To Discuss Africa Topic Margaret Bourke-White, who will speak at a University con vocation today at 11 a.m., has had many experiences representative of her title "documenter of his tory." This most famous of all women photographers received the title from Rutgers university in 1948 for her contributions to a "better understanding of con temporary events and trends." Typical of her far-flung ex periences was her assignment for "Life" during 1949-1950 when she I broke down the resistance of Ruth Khama, English-born wife of a tiny African kingdom, to being photographed. Wins Friendship For two weeks Miss Bourke White traveled to see the English girl and finally won her friend ship and trust. The photog- rapher-reporter then obtained ; ous students and religious lead pictures and an unbiased story of j ers believed that the week's this unusual event in history. j events had accomplished its pur- Ore of the last persons to talk to Mahatma Gandhi on the day of his assassination. Miss Bourke White hed requested an interview with Gandhi on the last leg of a six-months India assignment. They talked of the atomic 'bomb and of Gandhi's creed of non-violence against such a weapon. He told Miss Bourke White that "the world is not at peace." African Topics Miss Bourke-White will speak ! to University students and guests I on the latest of her adventures, i She will discuss the issues con j fronting Afrikaancr offi"ialdom ' and will outline the plan Africa is playing in the modern world.

Those that were members said they thought that such an or ganization gave them a feeling of belonging to something. Others said that such an organi zation helped them in getting into activities, and backed them. Dances and intramural sports programs were named most often as activities which students felt the organization should sponsor. ISA has sponsored both pro grams this past falL with little success. Others suggested an annual dance which would parallel the Military BalL Suggestions for a large talent show each year, to present acts and musical num bers by leading independent stu dents, were also made. Political action was named by a number of the interviewees as a necessary function of the or ganization. Some felt that the independents should form a po litical party to oppose the Greeks. One student said that as long as the Student Council was weak, there could be few issues. He urged more power for Student Council, which would result in political action. Others said that discussion Reynolds Looms As TV Winner Bobby Reynolds is rated as first among all 119 major colleges, through Nov. 5, in the RCA Vic tor "Mr. Touchdown of U.S.A." contest. RCA will award a deluxe model television set to the player who scores the most touchdowns during the current season.

Students Praise jReligious Week Observance Religion-in-Life week came to a close Thursday for another year at the University. TTnnn hoirtff ftnptltinnpH vnri- pose. Rex Knowles, pastor of the student Presby house, stated, "I think the meetings and or ganization of Religion-in-Life week were well planned. The speakers were very good. The student turnout was good but it could have been much better." Jean Dahlke believes that the week devoted especially to reli gion was very worthwhile and she hopes it continues on the campus. "Cooperation Excellent" Nolan Jones of Pioneer house said, "The informal discussions held at the houses were worth while. Everyone participated and it was an opportunity to learn about the basic principles of the different religions. The student Patty Jones heard a speaker in her philosophy class. she said , t wonderful idea . . ,:; -wc. b n u jon and govern. ment by the speaker. , .They at our house ; th listeners an opportunity h tial authority an their ions on religion," was the evaluation given by Art Meverott, - attended the I conferences at the Cathedral I throughout the week.

The Weather Fair Friday; not so cold, west and central. High near 30. Saturday, generally fair and wanner. Members groups and speakers would be of interest to many independent students. Some expressed a de sire to attend banquets for "din ner fellowship." Some students thought that the ISA should enter a skit in the Kosmet Klub show, while others urged the entrance of a candidate in the "Ugly Man on Campus" contest. Some thought that the independents should have candidates for the Military Ball sweetheart and honorary commandant. Some students claimed that the group needed more publicity in its activities. Others said that it needed better leadership. The ISA has sponsored a number of dances during the past fall, as well as an intra mural sports program. Under the leadership of Don Flesher, former president, they attempted to start a new and more active program, with little success. Flesher recently resigned and was succeeded by Jim Tomasek. The group is at present consider ing disbanding because of lack of support listenson Sows It will cost $18,274,912 to operate the University for the 1951-53 period, the Board of Regents reported Friday.

'Religion Needs Sportsmanship' -McAllister The comparison and distance between sportsmanship and re ligion was stressed by the Very Rev. Charles E. McAllister of Spokane, Wash. ,at a University convocation Thursday morning. Dean McAllister said, "we try to inculcate sportsmanlike qual ities in the youth of our schools, but so often act as though sports manlike, too," added Dean Mc religion." Dr. McAllister is one of 11 na tional religious leaders partici pating in Religion-in-Life Week on the University campus. He is Dean of the Cathedral of St. John the Evangelist (Episcopal) at Spokane. "While we praise men as being sportsmanlike it never seems to occur to us God must be sports Emanlike, too," added Dean Mc Allister. "Nuremberg Trials" and "Quest for Tomorrow" are two movies on international relations which were shown by the Dean at Love library Thursday eve ning. Question presented in the pictures were discussed by the audience. Cards to Form Four Flashes The card section, under direc tion of Aaron Schmidt, will per form during half time at the Nebraska-Kansas State game Sat urday to honor World War I and II veterans and those who died in the service. The first flash will appear when the Kansas State band ap pears on the field. Cards will spell Kansas State. The next flash will be soldiers saluting. The third flash will form "Peace" at the same time the band does on the field. The Liberty bell, symbol of freedom, will be the last flash. ( AVfY, The University's request is S8 percent above the $13,182,948 ap propriated by the last session of the legislature for the current biennium. Chancellor R. G. Gustavson said the budget had a dual pur pose first, to provide salaries which catch up with the cost of living and provide adjustment to meet competition from neighbor ing universities; and second, to strengthen the University's teach ing, research and public service programs. Percentage Increased These two goals can be achieved despite a falling student fee revenue, Chancellor Gustav son said, by appropriation of $14, 088,829 in state tax funds. This compares with $8,000,000 ap propriated for the current bien nium a 75 percent increase. Other sources of revenue for the 1951 53 budget are: student fees, $2, 400,000; federal appropriations, $1,693,683; University endow ment, $60,000; and vocational education, $32,400. "This budget represents the collective effort, and considered judgment, of the University staff ana tne tsoard of Regents," Chan cellor Gustavson said. "It is our recommendation on how much the University needs to do its job and fulfill its responsibilities as prescribed by law." Chancellor Gustavson listed four factors which make the budget increase imperative. Student Fees 1. Student fee income during the next two years will shrink at least $1,000,000 below the pres ent level. 2. Pay increases as a reward for good work and to meet com petition from institutions in other states postponed because of lack of funds during the current bien nium and raises to meet the cost of living, will total $1,629,055 for salaried employes and $105, 490 for skilled and unskilled labor. 3. Increased cost of supplies, utilities and equipment will cost an estimated $203,400. 4. During the current biennium a number of services and pro grams were suspended for lack of funds. These included closing a ward at University hospital in Omaha. The cost of reinstating these programs is estimated at $558,873. Nebraskans Request 5. The University has received many requests from Nebraska citizens for many additional teaching, research and public service programs. These have been carefully screened and proj ects selected which will be of greatest benefit to Nebraska's economy. They will cost $2,181, 706 for personnel, salaries, equip ment, supplies and other ex penses. 6. In trying to maintain its current program, the University has spent during this biennium $410,303 in reserve and building funds to balance its budget. The University feels this is not a sound fiscal policy, Chancellor Gustavson said. "All of these projects total $6,088,829 in state tax funds," Chancellor Gustavson said, "which is the difference in what was appropriated during the last session and what we estimate it will now cost to operate the Uni versity." Medical Problem Chancellor Gusetavson said the College of Medicine in Omaha is facing a "very serious" financial problem which must be resolved at the risk of losing the approval of its course of instruction by the American Medical association. Some of these problems are: Reopening of a ward which was closed during the present SEE BUDGET, PAGE 2, COL.
