Chancellor Blames
Class List For Fuss
By DICK RALSTON
News Editor
The religious program being of
fered by the Institute ot Religion
to interested University students
has stirred up a debate between
psstors of student religious houses
and University officials, accord
ing to a recent article in the Lin
coln Journal.
The article, first of a scries
on the question of religion in
public institutions of higher
education, stated that the con
troversy was centered around
the bulletin put out by the In
stitute of Religion announcing:
Its classes and schedules.
The title ot the bulletin,
"Courses in Religion at the Uni
versity of Nebraska," reportedly
brought the complaint from Chan
cellor Gustavson that it implied
that the courses were being of-1
lered by the University as part ofi
its curriculum. A spokesman fort
the Chancellor is reported to havoVh wt,t,,t MiAnii tatvi l
pucauon mat tne univers e wasjthe University curriculum, has the
i.-.upiujri.iK .w..m. u..u.Biwa
teach sectarian courses.'
The Journal article states that
that the Chancellor is renorted
to have said he was planning to
release a statement to the press
complaining that the bulletin
was misleading.
Student group leaders, who are
banded together in the Religious
Workers Association, requested a
conference with Gustavson before
he took any action as soon as they
heard of the Chancellor's plans,
according to the Journal. The con
ference was held Wednesday afternoon-
Members of the Religious Work
ers Association are indirectly
quoted in the article as saying
they felt the Chancellor had no
Cause for alarm. They are reported
to have pointed out that the bulle
tin says that the courses are of
fered m three ways: The Institute
of Religion. Cotner School of Re
ligion and the offerings of the
University. The University offer-j
ings are explained as those courses
ln pmiosopny, nistory, sociology
art and English which deal with
relieion as it bears upon the
course.
- The Chancellor also is re
ported Li the article to have ob
jected to the fact that the bulle
tin did not specify that the Uni
versity could not give credit for

The Journal
Chancellor also
the system of
states that
complained
the
that
the
numbering
courses used fn the bulletin gave
it a "collegiate" appearance. A
member of the Religious Workers
Association is said to have shown
the numbering was done merely
for use in keeping records.
Following the conference be
tween the student pastors and the
Chancellor, Bruce Nicoll, Admin
istrative Assistant to the Chan
cellor, told The Daily Nebraskan
no heated controversy existed be
tween the pastors and the Chan
cellor and the meeting was called
by Gustavson only to clear up
misunderstandings arising from
the bulletin.
Nicoll pointed out that the issue
had arisen from complaints the
Chancellor had received from per
sons thinking the Institute was
part of the University curriculum.
"i though completely divorced from
"',fllll endorsement of the Univer
,h. rh.-,nr.fllnr
To clear up the misunder
standings Nicoll said that the
Chancellor made these three
points:
1. The University endorsed
the program being carried on
by the Institute.
2. The University is prevented
by the state constitution from
offering sectarian courses. The
only way the University could
offer such courses would be by
constitutional amendment.
3. The Chancellor thought tl
bulletin was misleading in sev
eral instances.
Representing the University
at the Conference were Chan
cellor Gustavson, Nicoll and Dr.
Floyd W. Hoover, Director of
Registrations and Records.
The Institute
of Religion was
represented by:
Rev. George
Schuster, Newman Club; Rev. Rex
.Knowles, pastor Presbyterian-
Congregational Student House;
Rabbi Joshua Stanfer, Tifereth Is
rael Synagogue; Sam Gibson,
YMCA Secretary; Rev. Alvin M
Peterson, Lutheran Student
Wnusp! Rev. Dick Gary, Cotner
House.
Rev. Knowles told The Ne
braskan that the "controversy"
was simnly a misunderstanding
over method. The Chancellor,
he said, recognizes that religious
courses have a place outside the
University and he assured that
there was "no malice afore
thought" on the part of the pas
tors. "I find no basic difference of
nnininri." he said of the positions
0r tne University and the pastors,
Sam Gibson, co-ordinator of the
institute's program, reported tha
misunderstanding on the bulletin.
He stated that the Journal's

Aid Asked
For Japan
University
A nation-wide appeal to Ameri
can students to support a new uni
versity in Japan will begin with
the present academic year.
The International Christian
University in Japan already has
some construction started on it.
Tart of the 305 acre plot owned
by the University has now been
turned into a beautiful campus,
buildings already on the site
have been remodeled and made
ready for occupancy.
Miss Ruth Miller, who will di
rect ICU student campaigns, dis
closed that during the past two
years nearly 200 colleges and uni
versities in the United States have
contributed to the
building fund
of the university.
The Japanese
institution will formally open in
April. 1053.
ICU President Hachuo Yuasa
believes that American students
will consider this an opportun
ity not only to help Japanese
students, but also to help fur
ther friendship between the
United States and Japan.
It is acknowledged by every
authority on the subject, that the
people of Japan live in the midst
of gravely restricted economic op
portunities, Yuasa said. If a
scholarship fund is not estab
lished, many Japanese students
will be unable to continue their
education, he continued
Mr. Joseph C. urew, lormer
ambassador to Japan, urges
American students to support this
fund when an appeal is presented
to campus groups throughout the
country.
Come-AndGo'
Dance Planned
For Saturday
A new type of dance is being
held in the Union Saturday, from
8:30 to 12 p.m.
"Dancing in the Roundup' is
the name of the dance. And as
the name implies, the dance will
be held in the Round Up Room
on the first floor of the Union.
According to Delores Carag, chair
man of the Union social dance
committee, "Casualness will be
stressed at these dances." She
also added that students may
"come and go" as they like, and
"they are also welcome to drop
in after a movie."
If successful, this type of dance
will be continued throughout the
school year.
The dance will be "on the Un
ion." There are no admission
charges.
Hawaiian Students
To Organize Club
Plans are under way to organ
ize a Hawaiian Club on the Uni
versity campus.
All students from Hawaii are
recfuested by Kathleen Nakagawa
to leave their names and addresses
with her at Terrace Hall. They
will be contacted at an early date
in order to plan the dance which
will start the activities of the
club.
The purpose of the club is to al
low students to get together, and
to furnish information about
Hawaii to interested students.

debut in 1941. At that time they

Russia ofinini frequently relerrea to mm
as "tne greatest concertmaster in
history," Between Toscanini and
Piastro, there grew up a warm,
personal friendship which exists
to this day. He was honored by
being selected a member of the
Board of Directors of the Society.
He continued with the Philhar

only thirteen musicians. Their
popularity was so great they
quickly grew into a complete, but
small symphony orchestra, with
the addition of every type
musical instrument found in the
regular symphony. The main dif
ference is that fewer string instru
ments are found in the symphon
ette. This magnificant concert en
semble has an established reputa
tion in- every corner of the United
States and Canada.
Its programs have also been
carried by government-owned
radio net works, including that
of the Armed Forces. Proof of
its popularity is the fact it has
won the Critics "Top Award"
for the past five years. At one
time the Symphonette received
a flood of 10,000 letters from a
single station carrying its net
work program. They are often
referred to as '"the average
man's symphony orchestra."
The policy of the orchestra from
the- beginning has been to play
every piece of music, as far is
possible, from the original score.
Their repertory is perhaps the
largest ever employed by a con
cert group.
