THE DAILY NEBRASKAN Wednesday, October 24, 1951 PAGE " Joan Krueger Music In The Background The fine! word has teen uttered on the ques tion of dismissing classes the Saturday morning of Homecoming. Chancellor Gustavson has decided that classes will meet as usual and there will be no student holiday. There are various reasons for his decision, likewise there are many points to be said on the ether aide of the Question. Because of ml gratlea to Kansas State and the band trip to Minnesota,, a great many Saturday morning classes already have been cut. Several hundred students traveled to each out-of-town game and at least some students were forced to cut Satur day classes and labs. (DsuVl frliioJL...

It is reasonable to accept the fact that students can not expect to be dismissed for every outside event that takes place on campus. As no one will dispute, we are enrolled at the University for an education. Repeatedly we hear this and something would be amiss if we weren't reminded of it prac tically every day. Visible on the horizon, however, is another side to the question. In order to gain anything from a class period, every student must have a certain mental attitude, and I seriously doubt If the proper attitude for acquiring knowledge will be present that day In most students. Home coming Is a tradition so strong In most schools from high school through college that even the most studious ef students experiences some feeling ef school spirit and excitement about the celebration.

Nor are we seeking the Chancellor's permission for a holiday Monday in case of victory. Students at Utah are doing that So we really are not proposing something unique and unreasonable. We will not gripe because classes are not dis missed this year. There are excellent points to be considered on both sides of the question. How ever, since action this year has been decided, we can only hope that next year the administration will permit dismissal of classes. Our only consolation is that the faculty and members of the administration who miss the Homecoming parade festivities might be sorrowful.

If this is true for games in general, consider how keyed up students will be the Homecoming morning. ' Among the graver issues facing students today is the problem at Oregon State college: fussing or non-fussing. The excitement of displays took place the night before. While an instructor tries to pound in students the idea of split infinitives or the cor rect way to compose a mechanical theme, stu- At that college, fussing is considered a collegi ate term for women students sitting with men at athletic games. The practice has been in existence for only two years. Previously non-fussing was a tradition at Oregon state since its founding.

It's a highlight ef the fall sea- We wonder how such a problem would be treated by the University department of athletics, particularly since the Oregon campus paper claims that school spirit was greater during the first 50 years of non-fussing. Tk4 activity boom lowered Monday on fresh- man coeds who have been passing six weeks in unrecognized serenity. The period designated as the &M to become adjusted to college life and to embark on a study routine is over. Many coeds, cither from personal initiative or because of "urg ing" by bouses, wQl become workers in campus organizations. One sure way to discourage these freshmen is to pile a 1st ef dirty work and odds and ends ea them simply te keep them interested or busy. The adnata a worker shews ability or capacity to assume responsibility, more work Is shoved .her way. This is all very well. However, every organisation should be careful te avoid placing toe much work en one student. Each worker also should be strong willed enough to know how te graciously refuse a job if she feels she does not have time to perform ft efficiently. Organizations should recognize this as a good feature ef the worker, rather than a condemning one. Learn To Say 'No' lems of having excessive work alloted them. II goes for upperclassmen too. You will lose nc prestige if you say "no" occasionally to a job, This is far better than accepting the responsibility and doing a half way job. At present many campus organizations are tak ing advantage of workers or lower ranking offi cers who obviously are interested in working up in the organization. A student trying to work up in an organization should not be ashamed of the fad; and this fact is no excuse to "pile a lot of , last minute jobs and duties on the coed. An organization collectively and Individually among its members will profit if work is ap portioned fairly among many workers. More will have the chance to do something, and a few win not be burdened with excessive work. There are several campus groups that should see light pretty soon or they will soon see a grow- But it is not merely freshmen who face prob- ing disinterest in their organization. Only Class On Campus Keeping a smooth relation between faculty exercising his authority to an unjustifiable extent members and students is a two-way proposition. In addition to calling any error of which a student It's tip to both parties to give the other a square in his class is guilty "bow horrible," this partial deal or each will lose confidence of the other, Although this part ef the picture has two aides, there is little chance for retribution on the part ef students when they receive what they consider unfair treatment' from faculty members. The faculty, en the ether hand, has the potent power ef issuing down hours, flunking stadeat, and besides holding the reins as far ae grades are concerned. Aay student who "for gets" te hand in a term paper or neglects to atteai a majority ef classes might as well forget hopes ef getting a good grade, or even passing the course. However, should student feel he is receiving unfair treatment, what method can he employ to support his views? Talking to the professor gen erally produces better feelings and understanding lar professor told one student he did not care what other class this student might be taking or what else she might be doing. He informed her that the only thing he cared about was his par ticular class. Just as students should not be guilty of neglecting classroom work for outside activities, er devoting too much time to one class and ignoring another, so should faculty members realize that University students are registered for at least 12 hoars which would necessitate more than one class. Any instructor who openly win admit he is Interested in merely his class, has ne business teaching in a University where a student must enroll in more than one course. This faculty-student cooperation is a joint re ef both student and teacher. But if this falls, 8f1nsibtiy specially to classrooms We don't what recourse is there? fheali a student feel he is. being entirely mistreated and try te press the matter farther, chaueee are his grades will suffer. This, ef eeurse, weuli hurt, rather than help the student claim students are perfect Some will try to put something over on Instructors, no matter how fair the instructors treat students. On the other hand, a majority will play the game fair if the instructor will reciprocate. Unless the faculty is willing to go half way. however, it cannot expect students to be overly I know of one professor this semester who Is anxious to play the game straight Jim (Daih TkbhaAlmv FIFTY-FIRST TEAS Member Intercollegiate Press Tab IH!5 lilmtai fc a aWUaaa by "" ml lb nfvrr.H, i itHinuk m npmnum mt atiufmta' nrwn an ,;.

The aims of the Lutheran Sta dent association on every college campus are as follows: 1. To strengthen and sustain Christian students In their faith through the use of the Bible, privately and In groups, through prayer, through regular church attendance, through frequent reception of Holy Communion and through fellowship In L.S.A. 2. To seek to win all students to full commitment to Jesus Christ. 3. To encourage students in the study and appreciation of the church and its teaching for our world today and in participation in the church's program of evan gelism and social action. 4. To afford the opportunity for cultivation of friendships and social life on a Christian level. 5. To strengthen our national international fellowship of Lutheran students. 6. To deepen understanding of and participation in ecumenical Christianity. 7. To hold intercollegiate con ferences in order to assist students on every campus to accomplish these purposes. If there are students who are looking for high ideals for which to strive and for which to work, why not join one of the church erouDs on the campus? in a group such as this ne aligns nmiseu wun a positive cause! Sincerely, Phil Hain -For Better Or Worse? By MARY SUE LUNDT Staff Writer Shoe styles among campus co eds certainly seem to be taking a turn for bettr or for worse. Suede shoes shown with crepe soles, with or without contrasting leather trim are gaining in popu larity and in time may over shadow the "loafer" or "stroller" in popularity. Plain suede oxfords with "flaps" hold the upper hand over the suede and leather com binations; however the combina tions offer more variety to the co ed's wardrobe. Taking a fashion note from the fellows, the girls are turn ing to white bucks. But not to be overlooked are saddle ox fords with brown, black, red, or rreen trim which seem never to fade from the limelight Although flats are definitely "the word" for classroom wear, weekend parties and dances pre sent another fashion picture in regard to footwear. The classic black opera pump, repeatedly gets the nod from co eds as their favorite dress shoe, but variations to this ever popu lar style are now being intro duced by several shoe manufac turers. In this line, the biggest shoe news is a return to the pointed toe and the Louis heel. The long, narrow foot is traditionally rec ognized as the mark of aristo cracy, and the slim lines of this new fashion create a fitting com plement to the luxurious bouffant skirts which are being shown al most exclusively in the dress shops. The polished calf pump is still a favorite with sport suits and i casual wools. ' However, the suedes and leather and flannels and leather have been intro duced into this field also. These combinations are a pleasant de parture from the ordinary They've farther proof that fash Ions will never be at a stand stL It seems that ankle-length for mats are bine to be more popular than ever 'this season, and along with this dress length comes the desire for fancier footwear. The beaded pump, and lace, velvet; or satin sandal defini' 1y fill the bill in this department. .David Cohen- Jazz At The Philharmonic Records Represent Modern Music At Its Best VST J 1 J ttlU... - Tnabw lviercury recuras nave reieaseu umiwu . - A - -At The Philharmonic albums in the past few PUtshHk UJld COlAjCiWAaA months.

Players Bribed Spirit is not dead at Nebraska Ul Or at least the love of football is not entirely lost Anyway that's the idea the Candid Reporter get as she roamed the campus shocking various people. The shock was entirely mental and was pre ceded by a gasp and "Did you know that they've discontinued football altogether? It Just came over the radio. Glassford has resigned and so, no more games!!!" This statement is enough to trouble anyone, but it had an even more electric effect on some. One optimistic gambler groaned and replied, "Oh nol I've got five bucks on Nebraska for the next game!" According to him, it's a sure thing. Many lovely young coeds were also amazed but for different reasons. Their answers were varied and entertaining like this: "Oh, it just can't be. My boy friend is prac tically on the team, but he hasn't played enough to letter yet" "Really, but we were going to Missouri." Candid. ihpoJdsL "Oh, no!" Yes, winners or not, no one wanted to see the Cornhuskers quitting. Another angle was tried, but not too many fell for It The statement: "Did you hear? No more football because three fellows on the team have been accused of accepting bribes." Most of the answers included a laugh and a snear for the reporter who even jestingly would intimate such a thing. One Daily Nebraskan reader answered, "I wouldn't pay any attention to what you say if you were stuck In a whirlpool in the middle of the Mississippi river and going down for the third time." It seems he's been caught by the Candid Reporter before. No one would go out on a limb and predict the score of the Missouri game, but everyone agreed "It can't be; the team was just beginning to on one thing. They're behind the Nebraska Corn- really get started. What will the rest of the Big 7 huskers, win or lose, and, as fans, they prefer the think?" former. By ANN GILLIGAN Society Editor More people didn't go to that game last weekend! For intsance, the Beta Sigs were busy at their annual Fall Dinner Dance, held last Friday at Cotner Terrace. Dick Bauer meister dated Jan Beachler, Del Toebben took Ruth Lemke, Dick Kroeller and Mickey Walt were there, "Spike" Dannehl dated Wilma Kindhart, Harv Kroeller and Mary Lou Ginn attended, as well as Dale Bunsen and Mary Robinson, and Harry Giesselman and Barb Bredthauer. More dates among "stay-st- homes" included Herm Dink lage and Dot Lowe, Irv Peter son and Sydna Fuchs, Andy Bunten and Betsy Lleber, Bob Vandel and Nancy Whitmore, Jim Adams and Jan Jaco, Ted Simonson and Donna Solfer moser, Bill Shalnholts and Donna Folmer, Tom Woodward and Barbara Beck, and Joe GIfford and Carl McCown. The ATO's seem to be playing an awful lot of football lately. But maybe that's because they have such great love for their opponents. The Delta Gamma's won over the Taus last week.

Everything, that is. but the Persian city of Samarkand. That is the situation portray ed in "The Golden Horde," now showing at the Lincoln theater. When the mighty Khan and his hordes reached Samarkand, at least as movie history has it they were outwitted by a beau tiful but crafty princess, por trayed by Ann Blyth, and a reckless Crusader, played by David Farrar. "The Golden Horde" is a better than average Oriental cloak and dagger story. It is lavish and gaudy, but entertaining. Its char acters are adequately piayea in the best Douglas Fairbanks fash-i ion. The story seldom stops mov-, ing long enough for any lengthy a. a. a. t i speecnes io une piace. Fortunately, or unfortunately, there are no prolong love scenes Nor is there an exchange of sweet nothings btween the princess and her crusader. j The story concerns the at tempts ef Genghis Khan to con quer Samarkand. He sends his son and his ally as co-commanders to ride ahead of the rest of the armies to conquer the city. But they are dissuaded by the beautiful princess, who promises to marry each of them. With the aid of the Crusader, the princess manages to outwit the Mongols. To do this she relies upon superstition to force the Khan to retreat and leave her city unharmed. pa pledges and they won, too. .The reason you haven t seen many Betas around town lately is that they've all gone hunting. Last weekend, Bill Hein and bud dies held a "stag" party at Alli ance. This weekend, Dick Kizzier, Gene Johnson and other brothers will journey to Holdrege on a hunting spree. More males will be absent from campus activities this weekend. Gene Bruening, Larry Dunning, Gene Wells, Ed Perry, and Dale Haun plan to pheasant hunt at Hartington. Pat Laflin and George Rei chenbach got pinned this week, as well as Jerry Reinhart and Jean Nelson, and Howard Tracy and Harriett Harvey. Inciden tally, Marcia Burklund has an nounced her engagement to Keith Hyde. Here's somethine vou don't know! It's been rumored that a certain pledpe is a good friend of a certain Arthur MacArthur, Gen eral MacArthur's son. The pledge asked Arthur to visit him here at Nebraska's 1951 Homecoming. The son persuaded his family to come along. So, at Homecoming, look for General MacArthur. Ar thur, and Mrs. MacArthur. Un less somethine drastic haDDens. you'll see them.
