High School Students Absorb University
Atmosphere at Journalism Convention
Some 650 high school journal
ism students and teachers gath-
ered in Lincoln Friday for the '
nineteenth annual two-day con
vention of the Nebraska High
School Press association.
So read a news release of the
convention. And those 650 Ne
braska high school journalists
were having a field day.
The office of The Daily Ne
braskan was filled Friday after
noon with eager, excited re
porters. The high-schoolers were
sent out on regular assignments
for the Rag and were busily
pounding out stories for Satur
day's edition.
Lots of them were in the Un
ion Crib, absorbing the Univer
sity atmosphere.
Journalism Interesting
A group of Lincoln high stu
dents thought that "journalism
is interesting" and that the cam
pus publications "are neat" One
Lincoln girl reported that she
was having quite a hard time
figuring out her notes for a
story.
A girl from North Platte said
that she was taking journalism
because it is interesting and
fun." She had covered the re
porting and writing contests Fri
day for The Daily Nebraskan.
Students from Kearney com
mented that they were taking as
much journalism as their high
school offered which included
working on their school publi
cations. Kearney Students
The Kearney high schoolers
had seen copies of and had read
both the Rag and Scarlet and
Cream, Builders publication.
Two boys from Bertrand said
that they were working on their
high school publications. They
had read both the Rag and Scar
let and Cream and thought that
they were "pretty good."
These two students were in a
group that was taken on a tour
of the Journal. They agreed that
this trip was quite interesting
but too brief. They would have
liked to have spent more time
learning of the actual workings
of a city daily.

that were negotiated. His job
was to police the area near

Arabs were constantly fighting
and that nothing could stop it.
"When I left, the fighting was

accomplish two things. These

bloodshed and the preservation
of valuable religious relics".
"If we had been armed," he
claims, "I believe we could have
stopped the fighting almost com
pletely." Sacred City
"Jerusalem," Finn declared,
"which is the center of
Christianity, is also the second
most sacred spot of the Moham
medans." He told the group of
his experiences near Jerusalem,
of the many Arabic and Jewish
refugees, of a Mohammedan
church built on a spot also con
sidered sacred by the Jews and
of the five spots where Christ
was supposedly buried.
