Messagee
To University Youth
Warren R. Austin
Chief of the United SUtes Mission to the United Nations
During the summer, I received thousands of letters from people
In ell parts of this country and all over the world. Many of thesa
letters were from young people who are studying world affairs In
our universities. I take this opportunity to thank them for their
interest in the cause of peace and their many expressions of support
for United Nations' action against aggression.
There never was a time in history when organized education
carried a heavier responsibility than at the beginning of this half of
the twentieth century. We shall need all of the wisdom and
knowledge and leadership we can muster to preserve civilization
and apply the body of knowledge to the improvement and welfare
of mankind.
The polls on public opinion contrasting the attitudes of Ameri
can citizens according to their education achievement show con
clusively that the university-trained people take a more realistic and
informed position on world affairs than .those with less educational
background. They show that university-trained people are less
swayed by irrational appeals to emotion. They show that they are
more alert to facts; that they read more, listen more and discuss
more than those with less advanced education.
Regardless of his vocational destination, the university student
needs to explore broadly the field of world affairs to consolidate his
foundations for effective citizenship. His active responsibilities will
demand of him through understanding of the principles which are
absolutely necessary to keep government free and to maintain the
blessings of liberty.
The student will soon perceive that this is a type of culture
that is closely related to his welfare. The student perceives already,
I believe, that the totalitarianisms of fascism and communism thrust
themselves upon, or are -slyfy injected into, his educational, eco
nomic, social and political cosmos.
The student has a stake in the success of the United Nations'
effort to give practical effect to those great fundamental principles
which are reaffirmed in its charter. The letter of the charter is
necessary, of course, to evidence that it is that the members have
agreed upon; but the source of the effectiveness and power of the
United Nations is the spirit of the members, overriding, by their
voluntary and determined cooperation, obstacles to the maintenance
of peace.
The great vitality of this collective security that springs from
this spirit has been shown in the determined opposition of 53
members of the United Nations to armed aggression in Korea. It is
the privilege of the university student to participate in the public
promotion of those opinions, those strong desires and those deter
minations, which will maintain and strengthen the unity of the
major part of this world, in maintaining the front against aggres
sion and in lifting up those who have suffered and need help.
Without peace forces established under Article 43 of the charter,
the member states, upon recommendation, not order, voluntarily
defend the "ramparts' we watch" with wisdom, courage and faith,
because Truth, Justice, Freedom and Peace are under attack, even
rmed attack.
(Ed. Note: We are sorry that reader
the atory hn mention. We were not In any way trying to achieve Irony, but merely
tried to report an International development of a student organisation. We are
grateful that reader Rnhra M not "duped" by the onvloua rommunlatlc view nf

Nebraakan I awlnilnx toward the left.)
To the Editor:
Should the U. S. use the atomic bomb? Why not? The inevitable
argument is that it would cause harm to innocent civilians. Is the
American soldier in Korea guilty? Is the North Korean soldier
or the Chinese Red Soldier guilty? I think they are no more guilty
than the "innocent" civilians of their nations. Yet they must face
death, suffering and untold hardship. If the soldier, and the
civilians of the nation which he represents, are Equally innocent
of perpetuating this conflict, then how, by the principles of justice,
may we discriminate between them?
Perhaps we fear the retaliation the A-bomb's use might bring.
Should not we, the "innocent" civilians, be subject to the danger
and hardship that have so thoughtlessly been "pushed off" on the
unwilling minority who happen to receive "greetings" from Uncle
Sam? This is discrimination, and in my mind unnecessary discrim
ination when we have the atomic bomb at our disposal.
We cannot possibly defeat the enemies we now face with man
power and the so-called "humane methods" of warfare. We have but
one advantage. That advantage is our technological superiority over
all other nations. Let's use it!

on Nebraska
Bruises, bumps, cuts and
scratches can be seen maring the
beauty of numerous campus
coeds. Student health reports
innumerable sprained wrists and
at least one broken arm.
Is it that the cold weather
is affecting the usually "gentle"
attitude of the male sex giving
them the idea of practicing ju
jitso on their girls? Or maybe
too much studying has made the
poor, worn-out coed feel free to
take a few swats at her boy
friend and she got a few back
in return!
No, unfortunately, it is not any
one of these milder forms of
torture. There is only one an
swer for these bashed-up, broken-down
females Nebraska Ball!
Nebraska Ball
Nebraska Ball is merely an
other name for giant volleyball
which is played all over the
country. However, someone had
tthe idea of calling it Nebraska
Ball when it originated here sev
eral years ago and the name
stuck!
The game is really very simple.
As I said before, it is very simi
lar to volleyball. The only
trouble is that the ball is about
three times wider than the aver
age girl. Thus every girl that
serves must spend five or ten
minutes balancing the ball on
her knee before she can serve it.
Using all the muscles, liga
ments, and high blood pressure
she possesses, the server sends
the ball sailing a full two feet
to another player, who is sup
posed to send it over the net
but usually misses.
How to Score
If the ball does happen to drop
to the other side, with the aid
of some unusually alert net or
field player, the server generally
passes out from the realization
that she has scored, and the
next server must take her place
hence, forfeiting a score by
changing servers.
From eight to fifteen players
can be on each side. When not
serving, the players bat at the
ball whenever possible helping
the serve across the net or hit
tine back the other side's ball.
Next to the server, the net
player is the second most un
happy team member. During the
entire game, her duty is to hit
back at the wicked-looking,
olive-green monstrosity. If she
misses, the ball usually hits the
floor and the other side scores.
And so the net player hits the
ball and hits the ball and after
Most Students
Plan to Study
Over Vacation
Vacation is here
And whadda ya know
Nothing to do
But play in the snow.
What is everybody going to do
Christmas? Catching up on
studies will keep a lot o people
busy.
Of course a few people were
going to do other things. Bill
Petsche told of a beautiful va
cation, then said, "Don't you dare
print that."
Genene Grimm, activities di
rector for the Union, jokingly
told me that she was going to
Australia and bask in the sun,
then added the same answer
everybody else was giving, work.
Julie Johnson was going to
"stay home and try and decide
whether women should be
drafted."
Frank Jacobs was going to
"play poker til the wee hours
with the profits from the last
issue of Corn Shucks."
When one man was asked what
he was going to do over vacation,
he said he was going to get
married, but refused to give his
name.
Jackie Hoss is going home to
Reynoldsville, formerly Grand
Island, and be in a wedding. The
rest of her time will be spent
doing nothing although she thinks
she should be studying.
John Gibbs will journey to
Custer, South Dakota, to work
and renew old acquaintances.
just learning . . . Yeah. Sure.
Just takes a little longer than
with a regular dentist? Fine.
Hurt A Little
"Me? Well, couple teeth have
been hurting a little, thought it
wouldn't hurt to have 'em looked
at. Some guy told me I could get
it done pretty cheap here, so . . .
"Open wide? Sure , . . see
anything? Hey, what are you
sticking in there? You're prob
ing huh? No, don't feel a thing
. . . I . . . Wow! Oh! Go easy . .
"Sensitive? Sure as hell is! Now
what?
"Better have a filling? But
shouldn't put it off ... But . . ,
You'll give me something? Nova
caine? Ow . . . Don't need to jab
so hard. Have to do what? Clean
it out with what?
"The drill? No Charlie! Not
that! . . . Gahhhhhhh . . ."
K-State Union
Reports Robbery
Everybody visits the Union is
more than true at K-State.
Last Thursday night more than
$50 was taken from two cash
registers at the K-State Union.
The city police, as well as the
county sheriff, was called Friday
morning when the robbery was
discovered.
According to Don Ford, union
munatrer. a south window naa
been pried from the hood and
forced open. County Sheriff B. E.
Deckert stated that smudges left
on the window sill Indicate that
the thief wore corduroy trousers.
Police believe the robbery was
committed by the same person
that has been operating in Man
hattan the past few months.
Method of entry and tool marks
left on the window were of the
same type as have been found in
other recent robberies in the
Manhattan district.
iiciii
45 minutes of "hitting the bvfl"
she flounders off the floor with
a small attack of athletic fits.
Field Player
The poor field player can also
be included in our list of un
fortunates. This team member
waits eagerly during the entire
game for her chance at the ball.
Finally, in the last two minutes
of the game she excitedly sees it
coming straight toward her.
Here is her big chance to be
the day's heroine! Here is her
chance to win the championship
for her team! And what hap
pens? The huge monstosity hits
her squarely in the stomach,
knocks every last bit of wind
from her, and rolls for six feet,
dragging her 112 pounds with it
leaving nothing but a physical
ly wrecked image of what was
once a normally healthy girl.
And so you have the answer
to now present appearance of
the decrepid-looking female gen
der. Are you fellows going to
stand around and continue re
ceiving blame for your girl's
broken bones when all the time
it's Nebraska Ball that's doing
the job?

Will Address
Frosh Scholars
Alpha Lambda Delta, freshman
honarary, will have its 20th an
niversary banquet on Jan. 11 at
6 p.m. in parlors XYZ of the
Union. Tickets are $1 and may be
purchased from any active.
Dr. Doretta Schlaphoff, head
of the home economics depart
ment, and an honorary member
of the organization, will speak on
the "Importance of Scholarship
to Women".
All collegiate and faculty hon
orary members are invited to at
tend. Collegiate members are
uperclassmen who were Alpha
Lambda Deltas in their freshman
and sophomore years.
Virginia Koehler is general
chairman for the banquet. Jean
Loudon is in charge of the pro
gram. Decoration chairman is
Cecelia Pinkerton.
The Nebraska chapter of Alpha
Lambda Delta was founded in
January of 1931. The organization
is national. The purpose of the
group is to encourage high schol
arship among freshman women.
Members are chosen on the
basis of high scholastic averages
earned during their freshman
year. First year members are
called actives and become col
legiates during the rest of their
college years. At present there
are 21 actives.
Gertrude Knie is faculty ad
visor and Nancy Porter is senior
advisor. This year's officers are:
Barbara Bredthauer, president;
Marjorie Gade, vice president;
Cecilia Pinkerton, secretary; Hes
ter Morrison, treasurer; and
Dianne Downing, historian.
Journalists
Discuss Court,
Press Relation
A panel discussion carried on
by two judges and two reporters
was the highlight of the Sigma
Delta Chi meeting Thursday
night.
The journalists heard Judge
Edward' C. Fisher, Lincoln muni
cipal court, and Judge John L.
Polk, district court, discuss the
relation of the press and the
courts with Rex Gribble, Lincoln
Star, and Bill Arger, Lincoln
Journal.
After the judges and reporters
considered the basic problems
evolving from press-court rela
tions an informal question period
was held to finish the two hour
session. Among the topics brought
up was the problems of court re
porting and photography.
The judges felt that pictures
of defendants in derogatory poses
was especially detrimental to the
cause of the courts. Cuts of the
defendant escaping newspaper
cameramen were very bad they
thought.
Although accurate reporting
could be beneficial, too often
police records were invaded and
distorted In the papers, putting
the defendant, already in a poor
position, in a more unsavory
light. The judges felt that such
publicity, although good clrrula
tion builders for the newspapers,
lowered the dignity of the courts
and hampered them in adminis
tering Justice.
The forum took up cases where
newspapers might be sued for
libel because of their interference
with courts. Conduct of reporters
in the court room was alsp con
sidered iin the discussion.

Re-invasion
Of Korea
Pro-Con
If the United Nations troops
are pushed out of Korea, should
they re-invade and attempt again
to drive the communists out of
Korea?
This is one of the most baf
fling question facing the U. N.
today. When several students
and faculty were asked the ques
tion, opinions were expressed
both pro and con.
Those opposed to re-invasion
say: "Why lead our armed forces
back into an inevitable slaughter
against outnumbering forces.
Russia may be attempting to
weaken our forces enabling, them
to invade Western Germany with
little opposition. The loss of lives
and equipment would not be
worth re-admittance into Korea."
One source believes that "the
U- N. ought to propose a trustee
ship for Korea under U. N. con
trol until a plebiscite can be
taken voluntarily, without any
pressure from the outside. This
should be preceeded by orders
that all troops withdraw."
Those believing that troops
should go back in because the
communists are acting in direct
defiance of the United Nations
and to sit back and let them take
Korea would be appeasing the
communists. The communist ag--gression
has to stop somewhere
and that seems to be the best
place and the best way to stop
it."
Others asked the same ques
tion declined when asked to give
a definite opinion. They stated
that there was not enough in
formation available to come to
any surmise opinion.
Faculty to Attend

Christmas Spirit Prevails
In Campus Yule Decorations
There's no lack of Christmas
spirit on the University campus.
In fact, almost every building on
campus contains some sort of
decorations for the Christmas
season.
In the spirit of friendly Christ
mas time, the DG's and Kappa's
have hung sprigs of mistletoe
from the ceilings of their front
halls. The other sororities, al
though they have not felt the
need for mistletoe, have also
decked their houses with Christ
mas greenery. Nearly every house
has a tree, and some have red
and green wreaths on their
front doors.
The girl's dorm has six trees
and also has pine branches
around all of the clocks. In case
a girl is late, she is cheered by
the sight of the greenery, and
realizes that vacation is just
around the corner.
Fraternity Decorations
The Christmas spirit, however,
is not confined to the Univer
sity's women's residences. Most
of the fraternity houses also have
Yuletide decorations. The Delt
house features a scene with three
choir boys, a tree and four large
metal candles above the front
door. Christmas music comes
from behind the scene.
The Sigma Chi's have two

Who Would Tend Knitting
With Women in Service?
By Wally Reed
Ever since it was announced
that the draft would go into ef
fect again, there has been but
one question uppermost in every
male's mind, "When will women
be drafted,"
Well, we in the "Rag" office
have endeavored to answer this
most pertinent question to the ut
most satisfaction of all of our
readers. A poll was conducted
and in a very close race the nays
won over the yeas.
Those on the affirmative side
of the question argued that
women should be inducted into
the armed forces for various
reasons, among which were:
1. They might be able to help
lighted evergreen trees in front
of their house, and also a tree in
side. The Union has gone all-out for
Christmas decorations this year.
There are about six trees in the
building and two trees outside
are hung with strings of col
ored lights. A lighted wreath
hangs over the main door and
Christmas music is constantly
played over a loud speaker from
an upstairs window.
Ellen Smith hall boasts a 10
foot tree, and even Love Library
has a tree on third floor.
Campus Decorations
The spirit of Christmas pre
vails at many of the campus
gatherings during the weeks be
fore vacation. At meals, in the
Union loungs, at parties and dur
ing serenades the students sing
Christmas carols. Most of the
organized houses on campus
serve a turkey dinner with all
the trimmings during the week
before Christmas.
At Love Memorial hall on the
Ag campus, the girls renewed an
old Swedish custom on Dec. 13.
One of the girls, representing
St. Lucien, dressed in a white
robe and wore a wreath of can
dles on her hair. She and sev
eral others served the rest of the
residents breakfast in bed that
morning between 6 and 8:30 a.m.
The act was symbolic of the
deeds of the Swedish St. Lucien,
who Is said to have taken food
and Christmas cheer to the poor
and unfortunate. This is the third
year that the Love hall girls
have followed the custom.
All over campus people are
filled with the Yuletide spirit,
greeting each other "Do you have
your Christmas shopping done?"
and leaving with a cherry "Merry
Christmas and A Happy New
Year."

out by doing steno work, or other
light work and thereby release
men for heavier duties.
2. One said she would only be
in favor of it if they were in the
same army with the men.
3. Women need to gain experi
ence as well as men.
4. In the case of total mobi
lization every woman should do
her bit.
5. No reason.
6. Do not want to be left be
hind. 7. It is every American wom
an's duty to stand beside the
American men and fight.
Negative Side
On the negative side of the
question the women argued:
1. Who would be at home to
write letters to the fellows?
(What "poor" fellow would
want letters with the real thing
right behind the line?)
2. Woman's place is in the
home .
3. There is no need to draft
women as they will undoubtedly
be lured by higher wages to
work in the factories and there
fore will be doing their bit.
Needed on Home Front
4. Men want women here on
the home front. (This one
laughed.)
5. Who will do the knitting?
(Here a question is raised as to
what there would be to knit.)
6. Afraid. Quote "I am S
coward."
7. No. Some one has to look
after the poor 1 i 1 ' 4Fs.
8. No. The boys need an in
centive to come home.
The unanimous decision of all
the men asked was that women
should be drafted for immediate
action.
