peoples of western Europe.
Dr. Knapp said, "but we will
endeavor also to develop ways to
make democracy even more
meaningful in the everyday
activities of good citizenship.
"For instance, good citizenship
begins at home so a typical proj
ect will be to interest our young
people in the problems of soil
conservation and the importance
of soil saving to our well being."
"Other programs about the
Missouri Basin Development pro
gram, about national problems
and about the United Nations are
to be developed. These programs
will give pupils actual practice
in citizenship. What we hope to
do is to make high school classes
models of democratic action and
living which will combine the
knowledge of books and the
realities and obligations of every
day living. Out of it we hope will
come the young men and vamcn
which the world so badly needs
to give democracy a new and
vital meaning."

House Votes
iTo Decide
AUF Project
ATI organized houses are asked
to designate which country they
want their AUF contributions to
aid. Letters, asking for the
house's opinions, were sent out
yesterday.
Since almost half of the Uni
versity's contribution is distrib
uted through the World Student
Service fund, a relief agency for
the foreign student, the All-University
Fund is asking the stu
dent of the houses to select the
project they would like to ben
efit. The following are the five pos
sible recipients to receive AUF
aid:
Greece: There are many tu
bercular patients among the
students in Greece. Because of
lack of money to combat the
disease, aggravated by the war,
it is soreading. The major pro
ject of World Student Relief this
year has been the building of a
pavilion for tubercular students.
In the last academic year, the
health service of the University
nf Athens renorted 1.100 clinical .
cases of TB. At present, there is
pj-ovisjon for the students in
y,e sanatoria of the country,
iwtbooks Lackinr
Indonesia. Stadentsttere are
-cereal textbooks on
. , , . ,
a three week loan basis of fifty
cents a book.
"About clothes, food and other
material we don't care, since we
are Jiving in a tropical climate,
but our students need help in the
form of books and instruments,"
Dr. Santoso of the Republican
University of Jakarta writes.
Pakistan: A very large stu
dent population in many cases
are without shelter, without
clothes, without books, and with
out money. Refugee students in
Karachi are sleeping in the
streets. Land has been secured
for a hostel but the money is
lacking for construction of the
building.
Three schools for 1,300 chil
dren were being run, often out
of doors. Pupils and teachers sit
on the ground with no furniture
and almost no educational ma
terial. DPs Need Aid
Switzerland: Grants for tu
ition, room and board, and books
are needed by DP refugee stu
dents. Athens: The establishment of
a rest center is needed near Ath
ens where students suffering
from physical and phychological
effects of the war and the post
war period, can come for a per
iod of rest to recover their
strength before continuing their
study. Assistance for the care of
students who are in need of food
and nourishment is also needed.
AUF asks students to realize
that all of the countries need aid
equally. The board feels; that it
is better to contribute to a small
project rather than send the
money collected to a general
WSSF fund.
Yearbook Sales
To End Dec. 1
The deadline for Cornhusker
sales which will decide the num
ber of beauty queens each or
ganized house can have is Dec. 1.
Candidates for this year's
beauty queens will be entertained
at a luncheon in the Union some
time before Christmas. At this
time judges will meet them per
sonally and then vote for the
finalists.
Last year the judging was done
by correspondence. Pictures of
all the candidates were sent to
Henry Fonda, who made the
