THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
Friday, January 12, 1951
EDITORIAL COMMENT
In Retrospect .
MS

L
The first semester Daily Nebraskan ends its pub
lication with this issue.
We are signing the traditional "30" of the journalism
profession to the Rag's service to the students and their
University during this first half of the 1950-51 school year.
It has not been an altogether pleasant task to report
the events and happenings of this semester.
It was not pleasant to summarize the uncertainties
of the world and our life in the immediate future. The
effects of the Selective Service on the students and the
University was extremely disheartening to report and
predict. No matter what was said or set forth or surmised,
there was always present the uneasy feeling of being help
less in a situation which so definitely affects our genera
tion. That the situation was beyond control of those most
involved was bitter medicine to swallow. Yet the problem
demanded attention and we attempted to meet the demand.
It was not pleasant to report that a group of stu
dents were involved on campus in a brawl, a fight or what
ever it may be called. The recording of the episode in the
files of The Daily Nebraskan was an unwelcome duty
a duty that we hope will not have to be repeated in tuture
semesters.
There was no pleasure in criticizing the Student Coun
cil for supplying a crutch to the ISA or in scoffing at the
Miden college plan for ridding American campuses of Com
munists. Nor did we relish the suggestions for improving
the Student Directory or demanding a halt to the ex
cessive stealing from the Union book nook. It is unfortunate
that some of these situations had to exist, but it was our
duty to bring these occurrences to the attention of the
students.
Yet despite this unpleasant news, the past semester
lias been a bright one. It was gratifying to follow the 1950
Cornhusker football team to their most successful season
since Rose Bowl days. AU-American Bobby Reynolds is
still continuing to burn up the pages of not only the Rag
but other state papers as well.
ta tnvr tuvto other bricrht liehts in the last eighteen
weeks which overshadowed the unpleasant news stories. ;QeQn ThomDSOn AnSWCrS
The successful Crusade for Freedom in which the sign-i ipwii "
atures of 4 students totaled almost halt as many as uie fuaCnt COUnCIl S LCtTCr
entire state, the contributions oi Kengion-m-Liiie wees io
the students, College Day's plans, the numerous queens
and the solitary Ugliest Man on Campus all added their
luster to the semester.
It is possible that to some students the semester has
not teen too cheerful. The fluctuations of draft problems
created waves of certainties and uncertainties towards fu
ture education. These may have cast shadows on an other
wise bright period. Yet we cannot help but feel that the
pleasant happenings of the semester have outshone the
unpleasant ones.

Robert Raun, President
Student Council
Dear Bob:
Thank you very much for your letter of Jan. 10 pledging the
support of the Student Council and the student body in any move
necessary to set at naught the subversive activities of any indi
vidual or any group. This office has ever been vigilant in its ef
forts to protect the good name of the student body and of the
University. There have been times a plenty when we have felt we
stood alone in dealing with disciplinary problems, but in these
instances, we have always been prompted by the belief that at
tending the University was a high privilege and not necessarily a
matter of equity or legal Tight.
I promise you that this office will not deal tenderly with any
persons or group engaged in the perpetuation of any subversive
organization or any subversive actions that may Teflect upon the
good name of the University or of its student body. Neither shall
we deal tenderly with persons who commit physical violence
against others, indulge in cheating, drunkenness, or the destruction
bf property.
' : I have always maintained that the integrity and morality of any
oftmmunity is determined by the forthrightness and courage of the
individuals who compose it. The student body of the University of
Nebraska,' insofar as the immediate environment is concerned
can pretty much Cetermine what the intellectual and moral tone of
the institution is to be. a
'May I congratulate the student Council on its courageous stand
as exemplified in your letter and pledge it my support
Yours sincerely,
T. J. Thompson, Dean
To tve Editor:
The University of Nebraska Builders appreciate the edi
torial in the Wednesday Daily Nebraskan, relating to the Stu
dent Directory.
We Tealize that the late issuing of the Directory this year
lessened its value a great deal. Although circumstances were of
such a nature than an earlier publication was impossible, plans
are now underway to insure fast delivery next year. Both the
Builders and the Student Council are cooperating in this investi
gation; and the administration assures us that we will have their
complete cooperation.
The omission of some students from the 1950-51 Directory was
an unfortunate and unintentional mistake. Because the source of
our information was distributed to the various campus religious
groups, we had to go back to those groups in order to compile the
Directory. In this process, one religious-group was misplaced. We
are genuinely sorry that this oversight occurred.
Every effort is now being made to see that the next Student
Directory will be an early and complete one'

Have you seen Dick Regrler
lately? The boy with one deep
purple and and one baby blue!
As he pointed to his roommate,
his sad story sounded like this:
"He hit me!" Seems that Bob
Reynolds was wrestling with
Dick in the privacy of their room
in the Phi Psi house and he gave
him the 1' elbow. One beef steak
coming up!
The Sigma Nu '"Pigge Dinner"
will be held in the Cornhusker
ballroom Saturday evening. This
is a tradition with the fraternity
where they have a pig roasted
and brought in for the stabbing
ceremony and great feasting.
After the dining the Sigma Nu's
and their dates will dance to
the music of Eddie Haddad.
The SDTs are having their
pledge party Saturday. Dates
for the occasion are: Lois Gere
lick and Panl Gaiter, Mary Lou
Ripps and Aaron Schmidt, Char
lotte Cramer and Mayer Mosko
wiU. A custom in the sorority
houses .when seniors graduate is
to have the seniors who have
not passed candy eat lemons or
onions. Jan Lindquist, Alpha
Chi, seemed to be on this list
of unpinned girls. She was wry
embarrassed Wednesday evening,
when an onion was served to her.
Unable to look at it, she finally
admitted that she wouldn't grad
uate until spring. Thought you
would get out of it, didnt you,
Jan?
An original candy passing was
witnessed at the Alpha Xi Delta
house when Dorothy Williams
passed rose buds and cards with
a dot on it This announced
her engagement to Bnd Morris
Bud and Dot
Other pinnings on the campus
are: Fran Najrle and Ginny
Koch; Bobbie Bardic and Bob
Barckns; Kenny Lox and Rose
Marie Mettlinr; Mike Swanda
and Donna Johnson from Central
City; Don Richards and Loo Ann
Wa'tkins; and rhoebe Dempster
and Don Barrton.
Newly engaged couples are.
Rosanna Locke and Fhil Persky,
a graduate student at Stanford;
Bobbie Holmes and Panl Ke
stteky from Winner, South Da
kota; and Jo Pyle and Glenn Pe
terson from Gothenburg.
Friday night is the Interfra
ternity Ball where the Interfra
ternity sweetheart of 1951 will
be announced. Dates to the dance
are: Don Larson and May
Scherff- Pat Polnickr and Dick
Rice; Dee Riddel and Don Brad
ley; Ann Gilligan and Jim i
Walsh; Bunny Spradley and Jerry
EwIiir; Amy Palmer and Jerry
Copland; and Pris Jones and Jack
Greer.
The army, navy and air corps
seem to be creating a serious
havoc on the campus. But Dick
Dunnuck just missed his calling
and will be back next semester.
Seems he had been planning to
sign up with the Naval Reserve
unit at the air base Thursday.
Wednesday the group was called
into active duty. Sorry girls, he's
pinned!
Gass New President
Of Pre Mel Group
Walter Gass was named to '
head Nu Meds in an election held,
Wednesday evening.
