inger. Publication of the Law Review
is done with two purposes in mind,
Lake stated. The first aim is to
provide training for some students
in writing legal articles. Lake
stressed the importance of this
since a large part of a lawyer's
job is writing briefs and express
ing himself in writing.
As an indication of the sig
nificance attached to this type
of work in college, Lake men
tioned that many firms will give
first preference to men who
have worked on the Review of
their school.
The second aim of the publica
tion is to fnform readers. The
magazine is sent to libraries all
over the country, to members of
law college, to individual sub
scribers, and to all members of
the Nebraska Bar Association.
Its articles deal with current
problems in court cases, and less

Clyde Eagleton, professor of in
ternational law at Harvard, will
be the principal speaker at the
NUCWA model UN conference to
be held' April 3-5.
Eagleton served on the Ameri
can delegation when the UN char
ter was drafted in 1945 and has
done research for the state depart
ment on the UN, particularly on
revision of the charter.
The NUCWA conference will be
known as the "Charter Amend'

Modification of the veto power

Throueh this provision the
veto Russia has been able to
prevent a half dozen new mem
bers from entering the UN.
The second problem to be dis
cussed pertains to the powers
of the reneral assembly. The
general assembly has no legis

can only make recommendations
to member nations. Its decisions
are not legally binding.

NU Masquers Present
Sparkling 3 -
By DICK MILLER
Staff Writer
Last night at the University
Theatre the Nebraska Masquers
presented their annual play
Though the technical aspects of
the production were rough and
often seemed unrehearsed, the
acting, for the greater part of the
evening, was rewarding and in
keeping with the spirit of the
script.
In the leading role, Marjorie
Miller gave once again the fine
and sympathetic performance
which campus theatre-goers have
come to expect from her in her
four years of work in University
Theatre. At times it seemed that
the lines had been written for her,
so naturally and convincingly did
she speak them.
Her performance left little to
be desired. Since the role of
Annabelle will be Miss Miller's
last with the University, it is
gratifying- that she was so ably
cast and that her performance
was, in all respects, so highly
satisfying-.
Ken Clement, playing opposite
Miss Miller, presented a character
which was consistently drawn and,
on the whole, well-acted through
out. His role, largely a straight
part, took a great deal of theatri
cal good sense to present con
vincingly to an audience, and for
the most part he accomplished
this.
As the juvenile leads, Mary
Sidner and Dave Sisler played
their roles with a g-ood deal of
enthusiasm but little polish.
However, their acting-, particu
larly Miss Sidner's, progressed
in interest throughout the eve
ning. Marvin Stromer, as Mr. Kimber,
caught a great deal of the humor
of his character, although at times
he seemed to be imitating the
style and speech of Percy Kilbride.
Since the part of Kimber was
originally written for Kilbride this
is in part excusable. Yet the role
is particularly rewarding, and
Stromer caught, to a remarkably
degree, the atmosphere of "back
woods Vermont." It is also in
teresting to note that his make-up
was most convincing, for without
undue use of greasepaint and
hair-whitener, the character of
Kimber emerged. This may well
be credited to the skill of the
young actor who portrayed it.
Christine Phillips was the pic
ture of cynicism and disillusion
ment as the summer stock actress.
Sharon Fritzler was most con
vincing in her minor role as
Mrs. Douglas, bringing a well
rounded portrayal to a small but
amusing part. Dick ' Garretson,
as Uncle Stanley, was the per
fect embodiment of a rich uncle.
The minor roles of the per
formance were all over-shadowed
by Ruth Ann Richmond's por-
trayal of the maid, Hester, which
was a fine bit of comic acting
