'Basic Core1
To Continue
In Omaha
Harry A. Burke, superintendent
of Omaha public schools, proposed
.'londay that the University drop
specific requirements for admission.
Burke declared that requiring
' basic core of subjects for high
h hool students is essential" in
Omaha.
The proposal is under discussion
by the Nebraska Association of
School Administrators.
"Basic core" will be continued
even if the University should
abolish specific requirements for
admission, he declared.
He continued by saying, "Forty
percent of the 2,000 students
who will be graduated from
Omaha high schools this year
will go to 150 separate colleges
over the country."
He stated that the pattern will
not change because we send stu
dents to so many institutions. Even
students who do not go to college
win need uigiish, mathematics,
social studies and science.
Noel Lawrence of Grand Is
land, vice president of the School
Administrators association, an
swered a letter of criticism from
the executive committee of the
University College of Arts and
Sciences by saying the only ac
tion taken by the association at
a recent meeting was to name a
committee to discuss the matter.

There is a slight difference be
tween the Military Ball and the
AUF auction. However, one
one University male wonders if
the person who took his ticket at
the Military Bail was aware of
this fact.
Saturday morning when the
fellow was checking the contents
of his billfold he discovered that
he still had his ticket to the Ball
but his AUF auction ticket was
gone. It seems that the doorman
had accepted it by mistake.
The fellow now ' wonders why
he bothered to spend the $3 for
the ticket when he could have
been admitted for 25 cents. The
only problem is that he must pay
out another quarter to go to the
auction.

Spaak Denounces Politicians

politicians for their bickering

Spaak, one of the world's
leading statesmen, was one of
the leading advocates of Eu

the advisery powers it now
has.
In a rousing speech before
both houses of the assembly,
Spaak took special digs at the
British to whom he said, "You

talk of sovereignty and an
eternity to decide."
