AIPd's ft si Ei mm mm w ifor iFOllfl GVe lp Homecoming Fund; Reason: Alumnus Hit By Polio Alpha Omicron Tl sorority has donated to polio reliefthe maximum amount sororities are allowed to spend for Homecoming uispiays. The AOPi's, in donating their Homecoming fund to polio, fol lowed the example of Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity, who earlier donated $50. The TKE's letter ac companying their check urged cause, is that Lois Hcniger, AOPi alumnus who graduated last year, is in the Omaha Methodist Hos pital with polio. Miss Henigcr was listed as "critical" for the first week but is expected to be re leased in about a week. The AON's check will be for warded to the proper authori ties, as will any other contribu tions received by The Daily Voice of a Great Midwestern Univriily VOL. 52 No. 13 LINCOLN, NEBRASKA Wednesday, October 1, 1952 To Our Readers In several editorial opinions recently, The Daily Nebraskan has discussed the subject of student contributions to the National Foun dation for Infantile Paralysis. Closely linked with this subject has been the national collegiate movement begun in the Big-Seven by the University of Kansas to give money earmarked for Homecoming decorations to polio funds. The Daily Nebraskan told its readers that Homecoming was ft tradition worthy of being: kept on the campus and yet spoke of the need for polio funds and other aid. To add to the already confused matter came the All University Fund organization which is preparing to launch its annual, concentrated charity drive. When members of the Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity made the first move on our campus and donated their Homecoming funds to polio work, The Nebraskan offered its congratulations and in formed its readers that any donations to the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis would bo accepted and forwarded by our of fice. At this point, it seems vitally necessary to remind our read ers that The Daily Nebraskan believes in the work of AUF, is firmly convinced that the tradition of Homecoming should be re tained and that any efforts financial or otherwise to help those stricken with polio are unquestionably worthy. Donations to the polio fund in whatever way deemed advisable are an individual matter. Perhaps The Nebraskan will be criti cized for taking a middle of the road course on this issue. But, as we feel, this is not a subject for a crusade. We shall stand firm on our news and editorial judgment. The question of contributions to polio fund shall be regarded in the same light. R.R. The price of the Student Direc tory has gone up. It has been announced that the 1952 edition-will sell for 65 cents. The price has formerly been 50 cents. The reason for the price increase is a 12 per cent raise in the production cost without an in crease in advertising rates. This causes a loss that can only be made up by increasing the price of the Directory. Nov. 1 is the date that has tentatively been set as the time the Student Directory will come out. Sale of the Directory will start Oct. 15. The Student Directory publica tion is a branch of the University Builders. The Directory contains that other campus organizations "feel fit to contribute to this worthwhile fund." The check was presented to. The Daily Nebraskan, Tuesday afternoon following the decision to contribute at chapter meeting Monday night. The AOPi's stated that the rea Nebraskan. None of the money collected by the All University Fund 'goes to polio relief, because the National Foundation For Infantile Paralysis did not want to take part in sepa rate fund drives. The annual March of Dimes is the only fund son for the contribution, asidejsource of the Foundation besides from the fact that it is worthwhile .private endowments.

By LILA WANEK In our history quiz section the other day we were having an oral quiz. The quiz master asked one girl the difference between Noah's Ark and Joan of Arc. "Well," she said, "Noah's Ark was made of wood and Joan of Arc was maid of Orleans. But I've never been able to figure out the difference between Joan of Arc and Queen Elizabeth." "Oh," he returned, "Joan of Arc was a wonder, and Queen Eliza beth was a Tudor." Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo! Father My boy, I never kissed a girl until I met your mother. Will you be able to say the same thing to your son? Son Yes, but not with such a straight face. rr. . .. I n u - i' u iu i here we are with the weather again! Sunny, warm, enner Big News To Come Warm Who knows, maybe .someday it'll "Rally 'round the banner!" will be the battle cry at a pep rally scheduled for Friday night. The big news concerning the rally is yet to come, but in order to give organized houses time to prepare the rally committee is announcing a new plan to build spirit and increase attendance. Every organized house is be ing asked to make a banner bearing the name of the house. These should be of the type carried in parades, with a pole supporting each end of the ban ner. The rally committee sug gests that these banners be made wide enough to just clear a row of cars parked parallel on each side of a street. At the rally before the Iowa State game the houses are asked to rally as many of their mem bers as possible around the ban ner and join the crowd as it passes their house. The pep band will lead the rally, the victory bell will be next and the lines of Corn Cobs, Tassels and Pepsters will fol low in that order. The houses are urged to line up, one be hind another, after the Pep sters have formed. This prac tice will be followed at the re mainder of the rallys this season.

The counselors, traditional sponsors of Fenny Carnival, an nounced that Wednesday would be the last day sketches and plans for proposed Carnival booths would be accepted for the elimi nation judging. According to the Carnival Chairman, Sandra Daley, Tues day afternoon showed that only five out of a possible 25 plans had been turned in. Letters of information were sent to 25 organized women's groups announcing the date of Penny Carnival as October 18 from 1 to 5 p.m. All of these groups were invited and encouraged to use their ingenuity in thinking up carnival themes that could be used in booths in the University Ball room. A brief sketch or outline of their ideas was requested lor ap proval. From these plans, 16 will be chosen to appear in the Ballroom on Saturday, Oct. 18 to compete for the traveling trophy, which, was won by the Alpha Chi Omega's last year. Judging of the booths will be on the basis of suitability to the carnival theme; originality; at tractiveness; and audience ap peal. Three elected judges will carry 60 per cent of the vote, with the students constituting the remaining 40 per cent. A student, to be eligible to vote, must visit at least six of the booths and have his ticket punched at each. Voting will take place from 2 until 4 p.m. and the winners will be announced at 4:30 p.m. A first, second, third place and an honor able mention will be selected. Penny Carnival is one of the first activities of the year in which it is traditional for new women students on campus to display their talents before the student body. It is customary that all work done in connection with Penny Carnival be the product of their own imaginations and elbow grease, from the original idea, to the construction of the booth.

Eighth Army officer. This offi cer said in an interview that there are several thousand Russian troops in rear areas serving as technicians and advisers and prob ably manning modern rader-controlled anti-aircraft guns manufac tured in the Soviet Union. The officer cannot be identified but he holds a responsible post that qualified him to speak authoritatively. He conceded that some of these soldiers of caucausian origin could be East Europeans from Soviet satellite countries. The of ficer described the anti-aircraft battiers at Red airfields south of the Antung bases in Manchuria as modern stuff. It is assumed that some of the Russians are used to man these technical weapons. Some information was gotten from a captured North Korean officer. This Communist lieutenant, who was security officer at the armistice site, said last Saturday that he had seen about 20 Russians at the Sinjuijui airfield in June, 1951. The airfield is in North Korea at the Manchurian border. The North Korean also said that Russian advisers were attached to the North Korean Army officers staff school and that he had heard of Russian pilots flying Communist jets. High ranking American officers nave stated that Kussian speaking pilots have been heard by Allied airmen who overheard radio messages. These statements concerning Red anti-aircraft batteries were perhaps the first authoritative statement that Rus sians probably were directing and firing: runs against United Na tions fighters. PRESIDENT TRUMAN has accused Gen. Dwight Eisenhower of having endangered the country as commanding general of Europe by grave "blunders" which left America unaware of Russia's threat to world peace. v He said Eisenhower's advice that he saw no reason why Russia and the United States would not remain "the closest possible friends" carried "great weight" and "did a great deal of harm." The President said that "We wouldn't have had so much trou ble in waking up the country to the danger of Communist imper ialism in 1946 and 1947 and 1948 if Eisenhower had given better advice. He also complimented Rep. Mike Mansfield, Democratic candi date for the Senate against Sen. Ecton (R-Mont) and Democratic presidential candidate Adlai Stevenson for having known "that Com munism was dangerous and that we had to take measures to stop it"
