NEW BACKGROUND REPLICA Pictured above is one of the
new scenes that has been constructed for the State Museum at the

series of 16 ypical Nebraska scenic areas to be constructed.

The Block and Bridle club will

Student Health,..
(Continued from Page 1)
roneous thinking. Some students
think there is a specific answer
to every illness and that can cure
immediately.
'Mass diagnosis" has loomed
as a favorite comment of some
who feel that doctors simply term
any sickness with which they are
unfamiliar, "glandular fever."
However, if the doctors are ever
unsure about their own diagno
sis, they may call upon paid
part-time specialists for aid. It
is doubtful that Student Health
doctors incorrectly diagnose
more illnesses than a downtown
doctor would.
Sunday Service?
4. Students think there should
be Sunday service. They also
think there should be night call
service.
Answer: Clinic hours are from
eight to five on weekdays and
eight to twelve on Saturdays.
Often, students who could come
in during these hours, do not,
instead pay their visits after the
doctors have gone home, and ex
pecting a complete diagnosis and
treatment from the nurse or re
ceptionist on duty.
Nevertheless, doctors are
obliged to care for any emer
gency case when called, after
hours. Night calls were aban
doned because it was felt too ex
pensive and inefficient a service
to maintain.
5. Why should athletes get spe
cial allowances through the cen
ter facilities?
Athletes' Expenue
Answer: No expenses incurred
by treatment of athletes is paid
for by the regular student fee of
$6.50 per semester. All costs are
met by the athletic department.
Under Student Health supervi
sion, an adequate program of
preventative medicine is provid
ed for the care of athletes.

Public Warned
Against False
Ad Campaigns
The Better Business bureau is
warning the public about the
new "We Remember Campaign"
which tries to get donations for
different campaigns.
If you have been sent key hold
ers, plastic crosses, dog tags, or
other items and have been asked
for contributions to this or that
campaign, take heed to what the
Veteran administration has to say
about the subject.
Public Cautioned
"The public is cautioned against
making contributions to organi
zations which paint lurid pictures
of veterans languishing in hospi
tals. And to groups that propose
to supply hospitalized veterans
with items termed vital to their
welfare which are provided in full
by the government. "
So if you have received any
unordered merchandise through
the mail, accordnig to the Feder
al Trade commission you are not
obligated to pay for it or to re
turn it.
Another warning sent out by
the bureau is to not be "taken in"
by the offer from a Lincoln pho
tography studio for a $3.95 llx
14 photograph valued at $16.75.
Low-Priced Picture
The offer states that the pic
ture is available at such a low
price because it is being used for
a portrait show and the studio
will have no further use for it.
The bureau states that it
"thinks you might like to know
that there never was a show
and that the picture is not worth
$16.75 by the studios own list
price."
This is just an example of mis
leading advertising and false
claims of value, that can be
avoided.
Council...
(Continued from Pate 1)
to the student body for ratifica
tion, after it has been approved
by the Student Council. By-laws
on specific procedure will be
written later.
Faculty Ratine Discussed
Another issue discussed by the
Council was the faculty rating
system, which is to be in effect
by next fall. The campus im
provements committee has been
working with a faculty commit
tee to set up a rating system.
The Purdue rating scale would
be used under the proposed sys
tem, which would be entirely
voluntary on the part of instruc
tors. Materials would be made
available for faculty rating, but
results would not be given to
deans or heads of departments
unless such action was unani
mously approved by the instruc
tors concerned.

Student Survey
Newspapers Help Students
High school students who read
newspapers and listen to radio
news and discussion programs
will probably be move alert citi
zens than those who do not.
This is cine of the conclusions
reached by Erwin H. Goldenstein
m a study made to obtain the
PhD degree at the University
Teachers college,
Goldenstein's research was
based on a questionnaire survey
of 1,165 seniors in 24 Nebraska
high schools made in 1950. His
study sought to determine the re
lationship of certain factors to
the competence of high school
seniors as good citizens.
It Happened at NU
Not so very lon ag-o, one
instructor on campus proceeded
to explain to his class about
the whys and wherefores of de
pressions. He said, enlarging on the
idea, that during such times,
people got the idea that every
thing capable of beinp accomp
lished had been completed, and
that there was no place for
them in this country.
"That is why some poor souls
settled up in Alaska," he con
cluded. ,
"Please!" protested one of his
students, "I have relation living
up there!" r

to the cattle barn to pens of ex
perimental cattle.

Lambert will discuss "Progress in

Life Saving
Class Offered
A senior life-saving and water
safety course is now being of
fered by the University. The
course is open to any University
student who wishes to improve
his swimming ability.
It is free of charge and the
only requirement is that anyone
wishing to register must first pro
cure a swimming permit. These
permits are obtainable at the Stu
dent Health Center.
The course offers the technique
of lifesaving and practical appli
cation of breaks, holds and res
cues. The course is taught every day
from 4:00 to 5:30 p.m. The life
saving lasts two weeks and the
water safety follows it and also
lasts two weeks. The course is
well worth the time because it is
something yon can always use,
and it may even save your life
some day.
Men who are qualified instruc
tors and who are interested in
helping to teach this class should
contact Hollie Lepley m his ollice
at the P.E. building or at the
pool.

Finds Radio,
Other factors which affect the
citizenship of high school seniors
are: general intelligence; the
amount of education of the stu
dent's parents; the social and eco
nomic standing of the student's
parents in the community; the
amount of travel outside Ne-
braska experienced by a student;
and the occupation of the stu
dents father.
Goldenstein said bis study in
dicated ttiat American public
schools should teach pupils far
more about the everyday prob
lems of democracy, as a supple
ment to the textbook information
presented in history, economics
and civics courses.

At Connecticut U
Members of the student senate

have requested that all questions
concerning race be removed from
