THE QUESTION
Should football at the Univers
ity be "de-emphasized."
THE ANSWERS
Lloyd Kavich, sopohomore in
Arts and Sciences "Absolutely it
should be de-emphasized because
the tail is waging the dog. It is
the team that's the major part of
the University rather than the'
team being a small part of the "U.',
Gayien Hargrave, junior in En
gineering "I don't think it should
be cut down if they're getting to
that. I thing it should be con
tinued. Bill Giesenhagen, freshman in
Engineering "I don't think they
should cut out spring practice, but
if students play football they
should take care of studies first."
Bev Mann, junior in Teachers
College'No, because it is the
one thing that brings the Univers
ity together in spirit Without a
team for all students to back, they
just go their own way. Instruc
tors shouldn't treat football play
ers any different than other stu
dents." Harriet Wenke, sophomore in
Business Administration . "It
should be de-emphasized to some
extent. Spring practice is obso
lete. The University should find
some way to get Nebraska high
school students here instead of so
many imports." ' ..
Jan Pickard, sophomore in Arts
and Sciences "Football should be
left as it is., Maybe a little
rougher."
Mary Ellen Gerhardt, sopho
more in Teachers College "No,
it's not emphasized too much
now."
Ruth . Gates,, sophomore in
Teachers College "No, I think il
should be played up because thf
team needs it."

The museum has received a

The exhibit, called the Hall of
Nebraska Wildlife, will consist of
18 different groups of Nebraska
wildlife. The wildlife will be
shown in their native haunts in
exact detail down to the smallest
blade of grass, Dr. Schultz said.
The hall will occupy a space
of 5,400 square feet on the first

the state and Nebraska's widely
varied wild plant, bird and ani

16 exhibit cases will be photo
murals of typical Nebraska

The Cooper Foundation gift will
permit construction of at least
three major exhibits: Prone
horned antelope in the high plains
of Sioux county; whooping crane
in the sand hills lakes and beaver
on the Elkhorn river in northeast
Nebraska.
The museum has built with it
own funds an exhibit of bobcats
in Banner county. A second ex
hibit, showing foxes along the
Platte in Cass county, is now
being constructed with a 9500
gift from Dr. D. D. Whitney,
retired University zoology pro

finest natural history exhibits in
the midwest, when completed.
Funds to complete the hall will
be solicited from interested Ne

A man boarded a train at New
York and told the porter," Now,
porter, here's $5. I want you to
wake me tomorrow morning and
get me off this train at South
Bend. I sleep heavily, and I'll
fight you and tell you anything
to go on sleeping, but get me off
this train at South Bend."
The porter thanked him, and
promised the man that he would
get off at South Bend.
The next day the man woke up
in Chicago, with South Bend far
behind. He stormed up to the
porter, who was talking to the
conductor, and told him off in no
uncertain terms.
Then he got a train back to
South Bend.
"My. that man was mad." said
the conductor. j
"Lawdy, that's nothing," stam
mered the porter, "You should
have heard the man I put off at
south Bend."
"Have you any
social prestige?
"Nope, not a
drop."

The Red Cross civil defense
program started in early fall
when movies concerning atomic
attacks were shown at mass
meetings. Representatives from
different houses on campus at
tended the meetings and re
ported on the civil defense in
formation. The civil defense committee re
cently revised this program for
a new type of program that would
bring these movies into the vari
ous houses on campus. The rep
resentatives of these houses would
be furnished with information to
supplement the film.
The films shown concerning an
atomic attack include preparation
for and effects of a "typical" A
bomb raid.
Civil defense at the Univer
sity, says Trumbell, will prob
ably include more than instruc
tion on an attomic attack. He
stated that future plans include
recruiting University students
who would work in case of a
local emergency. "Such emer
gencies," explained Trumbell,
"would include floods. He added
that these students would be
able to be of assistance In many
unforewarned emergencies.
Forearmed is forewarned, not
