Chancellor Gustavson has been nominated for his active participation in th allege sports program. He was chosen to serve on the special sports committee composed of college presidents. According to the letter of nomination, "He has not only done an exceptional job right here at the University, but has also proved I be a capable go-between for students and faculty members. Surely there is no person who is pulling more for the students. And when he does have to crack down on us, we know we de served it." Orin Stepanek has been selected because "his encouraging manner and genuine interest have meant much to young aspiring writers." The letter also says that "he has kept in contact with many of his former students, who can never forget his concern that they be well acquainted with the best literature has to offer." A graduate student who more often serves students in an ad viser's capacity is Rex Knowles. "As pastor of the Presby house," the letter reads, "he has gladly given his time for our benefit. He has more than given Watercolor Paintings Exhibited University art galleries will open tonight at 8:30 p.m., for a comprehensive watercolors exhibi tion. The exhibition includes con temporary watercolors by John Marin who, according to gallery director Norman A. Geske, is the foremost American watercolorist. his time to other campus groups as well such as YWCA and Religious Welfare council." "Besides taking care of his own family," the letter continues "he has adopted all us University kids as well. Surely if he can success fully fulfil the job of student, pastor, father and adviser, he is an 'Outstanding Nebraskan.' " Sharon Fritzler has been nominated "because as Mortar Board president, she has pioneered the problem of college activities on our campus." The Mortar Boards proposed the activities leaders workshop held in first semester. This workshop "brought to our at tention the weaknesses and strengths of our activities," the letter continues. Because of his work in both Ag and city campus activities, Jerry Johnson has been recommended for the award. He has served as president of Ag Exec board, Kos met Klub and Innocents. "He's worked hard in practic- cally every Ag group, no matter how big the job. The KK fall show for all students was also outstanding. In all respects, Jerry deserves the honor," the letter says. Jim Buchanan has been cited for nomination for the "credit he has brought to our school as a top-notch basketball player." The letter continues, "In view of ail the basketball and sports scandals, it's about time some of the boys playing good, clean bail get recognized." Buchanan set six Big Seven records at Kansas time draw ing near, many quiz masters are briefing students on the high lights of the semester's course.
