EDITORIAL COMMENT
'Academic Bad Boys' . . .
A debate on loyalty oaths for public teachers
.progresses in state legislatures throughout the
country an Interesting bit of evidence comes
from Cambridge, Mass. Harvard university has
appointed to its faculty Harold Winkler, former
assistant professor of political science at the Uni
versity of California.
Winkler is one of the instructors fired last
July when he refused to sign an oath demanded
by the California Board of Regents. He also re
fused to take part in a compromise oral interview
regarding communistic tendencies. (The California
oath differs from the one now under consideration
In the Nebraska legislature in that the Nebraska
pledge does not include the word communist).
Had the expelled teacher consented to the in
terview with the California Academic senate com
mittee, he would have lost his Job in August any
way. Then a majority of the regents voted to
fire even those who submitted to an oral re-'
view of their loyalty.
v The Daily Californian report Winkler to be a
member of Americans for Democratic Action, "an
organization of anti-communist liberals." He is
also former research director of the Council for
Democracy, an organization whose money came
from the Luce and Rockefeller interests and
whose executive secretary was president of Life
magazine. In addition to this he received the
Bronze Star for his Navy service during World
war n.
"This, however," the Californian remarks edi
torially, "would not satisfy the regents; they had
to have his signature under a mass of nonsensical
mumbo-jumbo or he was 'unfit to guide the
minds of our gullible youth. . . ' "
As a result of the suspension of Winkler and
his non-signing colleagues, the Californian reports,
"at least 23 courses and sections, orginially sched
uled for this semester, have been cancelled ..."
These same "academic bad boys" had been
thoroughly investigated and cleared of commu
nistic leanings by a faculty committee and then
fired by the regents.
The Californian ends its editorial with this re
flection: "So Winkler left the University of Cal
ifornia, where he had been one of the most pop
ular and stimulating members of his department;
now Harvard has him. Harvard, in contrast to
California, is still willing to judge a man upon
his own merits rather than upon his willingness
to crawl upon his knees." j.w.
Men on Trial ...
A mob of boys crashed the coed convent Tues
day night. They had no trouble scaling the walls
and pouring through the iron gates. They were
met with little opposition except that of a few
buxom girls and shocked ladies who murderously
glanced at the intruders. Most of the coeds enjoyed
the excitement caused by the invasion, as normal
convent girls should.
Shouting "Male Suffrage," the boys squeezed
into empty chairs and packed the aisles. Girls
twittered. '
AWS board members scurried around the cor
ridors and ran up and down stairs in double file.
One was heard to comment. "You boys have
no sense of decency."
She added that it was a demonstration of mob
sters, of boys taking the law into their own hands.
"University males are on trial, on probation,"
she said. N
Yes, the boys, are on trial. The judges of the
case, the AWS board will undoubtedly be forced
to pass down a decision before the next Coed Fol
lies rolls around. They will have to decide wheth
er the boys are guilty or not of invading the
convent-like seclusion of the Follies show and
what shall be their punishment.
AWS board members must reach a decision.
Should the Follies show be opened peaceably to
boys, or should the boys be allowed to crash the
convent walls again.
Campus males are on trial, g.r.
DP's vs. Americans
To the Editor,
To my understanding, AUF has
solicited and been promised bus
boy positions for seven DP's who
are to study at the University
next year. I think this is a fine
cause and 1 respect all organiza
tions and individuals who have
contributed help toward educat
ing DP's in our school. But I
wonder if AUF realizes that it
will put seven American students
out of work and probably out of
school by 'getting these jobs
promised for foreign students.
Everyone should agree that jobs
like these should be left for
American students.
Again, my respect for and en
couragement of AUF, but couldn't
they consider this point?

Personal Opinion Out...
The Legislature Monday revised a resolution
on televising University home football games.
The senators then adopted the resolution after a
40 minute discussion on, according to the Lincoln
Journal, "the merits of television and allied sub
jects from Bobby Reynolds to bicycles."
The resolution which orginally asked the Uni
versity to "do everything possible to have its
games televised" now requests a "review of find
ings of the Big Seven conference" on the question
It is doubtful that any definite stand will be
taken in favor of television at the Big Seven
meeting in Kansas City this week end. Any
policy formulated at the conference meeting would
have to be in accordance with the ruling of the
National Collegiate Athletic association which
voted to forbid live telecasts for a year.
A. J. Lewandowski, University business man
ager of athletics, when queried by the Journal
inquiring photographer said, "It is not a question
of personal opinion now . . . we must follow the
intercollegiate ruling to ban television for one
year. I think television would definitely cut down
on game attendance." That is the opinion of a
man who ft an expert on attendance and con
ditions affecting attendance.
Some solons suggest sending a copy of the
resolution to legislatures of other states in an
attempt to make the issue one spreading over the
entire conference. They would ask the legislators
to require their respective schools to televise
home games.
If the senators of this state really believe it is
more important for a few constituents in the
area surrounding Lincoln and Omaha to view
Husker football games on video than it is for the
University and its parent Big Seven conference
to stay in the good graces of the NCAA, they are
taking the right path.

Gripers Better
Than Whistlers.
Workers
Says MV
By Connie Gordon
Do you whistle while you work? If you do,
ahame on you says the University of Michigan
who has reported after a four year survey that
"Gripers" are usually better workers than are
"Whistlers."
The researchers stated, "While this type (the
rriper) will often spend a lunch hour denounc
ing his Job, the driving suge to succeed will tend
this tame subject back to work fired with more
productive enerry."
Does this mean that people who can't whistle
are better workers than those who can? Maybe
they'll make som research on that query.
What's-in-a-Name Dept. The Daily Kansan re
ports the following (and we quote). "According
to a University instructor who has lived in New
York City, there was much confusion among
New York Giant baseball followers recently when
they heard over the radio that Mel Ott, the
Giant manager, had accepted the position as chan
cellor of a large eastern University.
However, after the Giant offices had been de
luged with telephone calls from angry fans, it
was finally revealed that it was a Chancellor
Malott from Kansas who had been appointed
chancellor of Cornell university.
John Hopkins University has announced that
it is doing away with the regular four-year un
dergraduate program. They are substituting in
its place a liberal, go-as-you-learn plan with no
restrictions on time, scope, or specific study.
Their plan is very good if you like to spend
22 hours a day studying in order to save one
year in university. More power to 'em.
Speaking of studying, it's back to the books I
go for some Info for my six weeks exams. So, un
till next time, Au revoir!
NV Nicknames Have Unusual
Origins; Date Back to Youth
What's in a name?
What's behind a nickname?
Shakespeare would raise a
questioning eyebrow at some of
the stories behind the nicknames
of Nebraska students.
Jucnita Redlger, commonly
called "Pooehie," received her
nickname when a little girl
"Poochle'i" parents had a puppy
turned "Pooehie." When her
mother and father would call
the dog, the little girl would al
ways answer the call, too. Fi
nally Juanita was referred to as
"Pooehie" and the name is now
her pseudonym,
"Speed" Foley
Jim Foley's nickname is left
over from hit pledge days at the
University. He was tagged
"Speed" because of the rapidity
vith which he eveded his pledge
duties.
Proboscises, (noses, that Is),
are one cause for nicknames.
"Needles" Neely and "Noonan"
McVlckcr both had nose trouble.
"Needles," alias Mary Jean, was
dubbed this because her nose Is
supposedly long and pointed.
This title has stuck with her
since high school, "Noonan,"
alias Sid, started out as "no
nose." This moniker evolved
into "Noonan." All this because
of his stubby nose.
Caroline Rothenbergor's sister
had trouble in her infant -".ays
saying much of anything except
"ticky." Since the sister was so
fond of her, Caroline became
known as "Tlkki" and still has
the title.

High
Frequency
By Art Epstien
If you like to hear a talented
disc jockey then you will enjoy
"Johnny's Pop Shop". John Ma-
loney is the owner of the shop
He is ample proof that you do
not have to
belong to the
speech de
part ment to
be an an
nouncer over
your univ e r
sity radio sta
tion. John is
a senior in the
college of
Arts and
Science. His
maior is tosv-
chology. Now Epstien
you can readily see that any one
is eligible for the radio station.
If you are familiar with John's
work you might wonder wny ne
is not in the field of radio,
John's answer to that is that he
loves the radio work, but it is
Just for "kicks".
When you "listen to "Pop
Shop" you can hear a man that
is well versed in putting over a
disc show. For recorded music
at its best, with an announcer
that really puts his all in a show,
hear "Johnny's Pop Shop" every
Wednesday and Thursday at 3:45
over your university radio sta
tion, KNU.
This week's presentation of
"Authors of the Ages" is Hedda
Gabler, by Henrik Ibsen. When
this show was first given in
1891, it created quite an uproar.
This is the plot of a woman
who wants to be a master of
men. The star Hedda Gabler,
who is portrayed by Jan Crilly,
and was Tuesday's announcer as
Miss Dame Fashion of the Uni
versity, is the daughter of a
military man. Hedda has had a
very unhappy Carriage. -
During the performance you
might grow to dislike Hedda. For
it is she that mechanically brings
about the downfall of her former
lover. The lover, Eilert Lovborg,
is a man who at one time freed
himself of the wrath of Hedda.
Because of this Hedda plans his
downfall. Tesman, Hedda's poor
husband, is played by Tom Nuss
Mrs. Elvsted is played by. Mary
Kay Tolliver. It is her job to
reform Lovborg.
Other members of the cast are
Clarence Wurdunger, and an
other new member to the Au
thors cast, Joan Cutler.
For a half hour of pleasant
listening hear "Author's of the
Ages" at 9:00 Thursday over
KFOR, or 3:30 on Monday over
KNU.
