PAGE 2 THE DAILY NEBRASKAN Monday, November 5, 1951 Tom Rische. Two Points Of View Last Friday a rather unhappy fraternity man visited the editor's office. He was protesting the publishing of an editorial called "Checking-Off," which was erroneously run under the name of the editor, Tom Rische, but was in fact written by the associate editor, Joan Krueger. The con versation went something like this: Visitor I saw your little Item this moraine about 'Checking-Off.' It was run under Rische's name, but anybody who knows anything- can tell that Krueger must have written it. In the first place, It doesn't make sense if she didn't, and In the second place, the tone of the whole thing Is different from the first editorial which Rische wrote. Tom Rische You're right. The thing was written by Joannie. My name was erroneously put them. in down at the printing plant. foAnhjuAk&L 9k. iOondsjdcund dents don't know what you are referring to. J.K. What else can we talk about except the things we know? We would look like fools trying to discuss something we know absolutely nothing about. We try to investigate other Issues but these take time, and we can't get a lot of the infor mation without digging. Some students are inter ested in the things we write about. We try to make it as broad as possible, but it is hard. Sure, we've made mistakes. And we do try to correct Ann's Alley BY ANN GILLIGAN Society Editor Unusual as it may seem, "stags" teamed up with "nags" last week end to "hoof it" out at Kings.

The series Vis. What I want to know Is why the thing was run at all, no matter who wrote it. Joan Krueger I went over there to "check T.R. You've got a good point when you say the students may not know what we are talking about. We have, I suppose, a tendency to think that everybody else knows the facts on a given situation, when in fact, they don't. We have prob- off" and I thought it would be rather funny to ably fallen down there by assuming that students write about it VI. But why did you write about it at all? Did it reveal anything really new? What was the conclusion yon drew from it? J.K. It was just an Incident, that's all. I don't know now how good an idea it was. But it seemed like it at the time. Vis. But what did it prove? JJC. It merely informed some people that such a thing exists. Whether it was good or bad, it told them. Vis. I think it was bad. I think it was a mistake. T.R. We've done our best to be honest this semester, but we have made lots of mistakes. My name appearing on the editorial was a case in point Another one was Rev. Rex Knowles name appearing on an article about communism. Vis. But why did you go off on these out landish campaigns against various things? Why hit the NUCWA elections, or the honoraries? What good are you trying to accomplish? Do you think people are going to accept your some what biased opinions? T.R Definitely not What we have been try ing to do this year is to make people on campus think about some of the important issues, both national and campus. Do you think that I am naive enough to think that people are going to accept my opinion without any reservation at all? Cer tainly I don't In past years, students on this tampus have gone through school without actually giving a thought to what was going on around them. They would accept their buddy's opinion without questioning it I think the election on cam pus this week was an example. I saw several stu- are for. They could have done so in the last elec- were aware of all the facts. It is something we will try to watch in the future. Vis. Might be a good idea. Another thing, why all the typographical errors this year? Can't you get anything right All those silly errors on the front page. If your news editors would do something beside sit around and drink coffee all afternoon, you might have a better paper. T.R. Errors are the thing we dislike most, Despite what you may think, we are understaffed. We have five news editors, a feature editor and an Ag editor to copyread, write headlines and sometimes stories. If you don't think that they keep busy getting the stuff out, you're badly mis taken. They're young and just learning, and make mistakes, sure, but they try. And when somebody makes a mistake, don't think he doesn't hear about it. But you ought to see some of the infor mation that comes in down here too. Some of it you can't read. And some of the people involved are nearly impossible to get a hold of. Vis. OK. So you've got problems too. I guess you aren't as biased as I thought you were. But why are you so anti-Faction? Why don't you leave them alone? T.R. During the campaign, I tried to be im partial in publicity and at least fairly so in edi torials. I think, however, that it is a joke to pre tend that there is no such thing as the Faction when everybody from Chancellor Gustavson on down knows that it exists. There's nothing wrong with the Faction basically. I think that they ought to come out in the open now and say what they dents running over to somebody to ask what the slate to vote for was. This happened in front of the polling booths, and included both the Faction and the Engineers. We have aimed at getting people to think about the issues. And I think that they are thinking about campus issues. I think tion legally, I think. The campaign publicity was wide open. I don't question for a minute their right to exist. And certainly a fraternity faction at face value is more representative than an En gineering faction. If they would come out and file a constitution and say that the All-University the paper! is being better read because we have party is a legal campus party, I would back them taken definite stands on issues. We've made mis takes, but we have tried. JJC We have tried to point out some things we think are wrong with things as they stand. We haven't meant to attack the system as a whole, but merely to point out bad parts of these things. Vis. But why take the things to which yon belong in which yon are interested? Why not take campus issues as a whole? There have been some but not too many. Why go off and take some little happening that the campus knows little about and cares less? And when you do talk about these things, if you must, why not tell the students what is going on? Yon start talking about these things and most of the stu- to the hilt I think they have a definite right to exist and put up candidates, although I wouldn't promise to agree with them at all times. I don't thing you will find any editorial that says any thing different from that. Vis. But the general tone of your editorials has been anti-Faction. At least that is the gen eral impression everyone has gotten through reading them. T.R. The general tone has been intended to be critical of a one-party system and the evils thereof. The Faction, as that one party, has been connected with the editorials that way. Vis. OK, maybe so, but I've got to go work on my Homecoming display now. So long. It's been interesting.

Mary Jean Christiansen, Sigma brothers. Joan Kruegei- Buy Or Else? I have no doubts about the benefits education majors will receive from the elementary ed ban quet Tuesday evening, but I seriously question some of the methods the faculty members are us ing to induce students to attend. For the past two weeks I have been bearing complaints from ed majors about tactics teachers have employed to get them to buy the 1.35 tickets. At first I attributed the griping to usual hesitancy about attending banquets, but lately there appears to be foundation for many of their statements. One teacher informed her class last week it was "compulsory" to attend. The girl happened to live in Lincoln and found it quite inconvenient to make plans to attend. Her parents were some what annoyed. Another teacher told -students "you are expected to go." Of course not all in structed students in similar manner, but one or two is enough to help the word spread quickly. Another teacher plans to give additional as signments for all students not attending the ban quet. The banquet is to promote more unity among different departments and students enrolled in elementary education. At present Teachers Col lege has the largest enrollment in the Univer sity. This goal is very admirable, but it would seem the purpose is being defeated at the out set by methods used to get students to attend the banquet. Another angle on ticket sales was the actual questioning by some teachers of students' state ments. One student told the instructor she had bought a ticket in another ed class. To this the teacher replied, "I want to see it before you go." Another merely said, "I don't believe you." Even though these instances may be the only examples of high pressuring on students, they are certainly beneath the dignity of University faculty ' members. If the banquet is worthy of student attendance certainly they should b encouraged but not nearly compelled to go. I am equally certain that the majority of stu dents would purchase tickets and attend with out the high pressuring that' has been going on in a few instances. Those faculty members in Teachers college who have sold tickets without employing above tactics are to be congratulated. The others are to be scorned. JJul (Daily Tkbha&kcuv FIFTY-FIRST YEAS " '.
