Jack Cohen Reveals
Migration To K-State
The annual mass migration of
University students this year to
Kansas State university at Man
hattan, will leave the Lincoln
Union Pacific depot at 6:15 a. m.
Saturday, Oct. 6.
Jack Cohen, Student Council
member in charge of the migration
trip, has completed final arrange
ments for the Nebraska exodus to
see the Cornhuskers meet the K
State Wildcats on that Saturday
afternoon.
The migration train is sched
uled to arrive at Manhattan at
approximately 11:30 a.m. and
begin the return trip to Lincoln
at 8 p.m., arriving back at the
capital city at approximately
1 a.m. Sunday morning.
A block of 415 tickets, "good
seats," according to Cohen, has
been reserved for Husker fans.
The price of these tickets will be
included in the migration price.
Monday's edition of The Daily
Nebraskan will carry the price of
the migration ticket, which in
cludes round-trip train fare and
stadium seats, and will definitely
be under $10, Cohen emphasized.
A snack car will be included in
the migration train where pepsters
may purchase sandwiches, coffee,
soft drinks, fruit, cigarettes and
candy.
The migration committee will
provide pom-poms and rally
signs to the Husker rooters on
the train.
Working with Cohen on this
University tradition are Gene
Johnson, Corn Cobs represent
ative; Barbara Hershberger,
Tassels; Don Pieper, Daily Ne
braskan; Aaron Schmidt, band;
and the treasurer of the Student
Council who will be elected next
Wednesday's council proceed
ings. Corn Cobs, Tassels, a 67-piece
pep band, the migration com
mittee, and student and faculty
chaperones will be included among
the K-State migrators.
Tickets will go on sale early
next week at various booths lo
cated around campus. Tassels and
Cobs will be in charge of the sales.
Booths will definitely be located,
said Cohen, at the city campus
Union, Ag College Union and the
Social Sciences building. Other
booths will also be set up at vari
ous campus locations.
The migration chairman said,
"The migration committee feels
that the trip this year should
be very successful because of
the avid interest shown in the
1951 Cornhusker football squad.
"For this reason we are ex
pecting a large turn-out and
also because of the terrific re
sults of last year's migration to
Kansas University."
Gene Johnson and Cohen, who
both took part in last year's mi
gration trip, agreed that 'tre
mendous" and "the greatest ever
applied to the annual trip.

reach lecturer Warm
Of 'Optimism
French educator, pastor and ex
underground leader Andre Trocme
warned listeners to be aware of
"optimism found in American
pacifists," in his speech Wednes
day evening in Ellen Smith hall.
"It takes humility to be a
pacifist. You are mistaken if you
believe you can stop war if a
small number refuse war," he
aid.
Trocme, sandwiching the
speech between a television ap
pearance and other lecture en
gagements, also stated that
communist tactics are being
used to fight communism. Such
practices are weakening an al
ready "fragile democracy.
"The methods used by Acheson
at the recent treaty conference,
said Trocme, "were similar to the
procedure found when Russians
sign treaties with neighboring
eatellite nations . . . discussion
only on rules of procedure.
The use of the Korean war as
a "government method to keep
the pace of rearmament progress
ing " was cited an another com
munist strategium now employed
by the U. S. , ',. .
Trocme is currently delivering
the Robert Treat Paine lectures
of 1951. He will speak at the
Pacific School of Religion, the
University of Southern California,
Garrett Biblical Institute and
Oberlin Seminary.
In 1938 Trocme founded col
lege Cevenol, an international
secondary school. It has grown
from its orginal size of 18 stu
dents to present enrollment
on the migration committee, said
"The migration shows great school
spirit to other schools and inside
unity plus providing a great ex
perience of one's coll;e career."

The hour was nine o'clock.
The scene was a classroom in
one of the University buildings.
The characters were students.
The topic under discussion was
the West Point story.
As one certain student spoke
up from the back of the room,
the subject lost its serious tone.
This honest and straight-forward
student announced to the
instructor after listening to the
instructor ask if his students
should be expelled for cribbing:
"I'm sure glad you haven't

Thieves Rob
LmD I nouse;
Cash Taken
A robbery of over $200 worth
of cash and property at the Zeta
Beta Tau fraternity house early
Thursday morning produced an
unusual reward offer.
When Vern Davidson awoke
and discoveread that his wrist
watch was missing, several others
made similar discoveries. Among
the missing items were two wrist
watches, three sport coats and
about $65 in cash.
The thieves are apparently new
at the art of pilfering billfolds.
One wallet was relieved of several
dollars' cash while a check was
thrown away. The check was
blank as far as the amount and
the recipient are concerned, but it
was signed by one ZBT's father
and was worth almost any
amount.
The robbery occurred after 1
a.m. Since the tnree missing sport
coats are of varying sizes, it . is
suspected that there were three
thieves who entered the house.
Anxious to find the stolen loot,
the ZBT's immediately sent out
their entire pledge class as a
search party. According to re
ports, the pledge who finds the
stolen goods will be initiated im
mediately. NCIA To Hear

Days celebration, made this announcement to xne uaiiy lNeorasnan.
Tentative plans lor we univer

cording to Reichenbach, "more
consolidated events, plus fewer
but bigger events."
Reichenbach also emphasized
that this second College Days

corporated with the academic
viewpoint. "Carnival idea" is
the general integrating factor of
April's College Days, the cele
bration head said.
Reichenbach, with the nucleus
of the College Days governing
committee, will meet today, 4
p.m., Room 315, Union, to discuss
tentative plans for the occasion.
Forming the governing commit
tee will be Joan Krueger, assist
ant general chairman; Doris Carl
son, business manager; Julie
Johnson, open house chairman;
Don Noble, publicity chairman;
Mary Ann Kellogg, special events
chairman; and Jane Wade, secre

student body, we'll need a fan

be interested in helping with this
event."

For hours they had been to
gether on her front porch. The
moon cast its tender gleam
down on the young and hand
some couple who sat strangely
far apart. He sighed. She
sighed. Finally: "I wish I had
money, dear," he said. "I'd
travel."
Impulsively she slipped her
hand into his; then rising
swiftly, she sped into the
house. Aghast, he looked at his
hand. In his palm lay a nickel.
Today it will be partly
cloudy, much cooler than
yesterday, with a high near
62. Northerly winds will in
crease, and there will be
light showers. The high for
yesterday was 76, with a low
near 57.
It was Easter Sunday, and
the sun shone in the windows
of the old church giving it a
new brightness. A young bride
walked demurely down the
aisle, arm in arm with her
kind, gray haired old father.
As she walked, she seemed to
bring a new breath, of life to
the old church. Her face shone
with radiance. She was a pic
ture of innocence.
Just' upon reachlns the
altar, the young bride acci
. dentally brushed a young, lily
plant, upsetUnr it.
She raised her large, child
like eyes to the quiet face of
the eld minister and gently
said, "That's a hell of a place
to put a lily."
