THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
Thursdoy, October 30, 1952
AN AMUSING GAMP
indents Fatuity
semmess uv v
A quick survey of reaction to
the "Yardstick of Political
Philosophy" which appeared in
Tuesday's DAILY NEBRASKAN
indicates that students and fac
ulty alike are wary of so-called
polls and opinion measuring
devices.
William Hice, assistant pro
fessor of journalism, said, "my
criticism of all such "yardsticks"
so commonly used by news
papers and magazines is that
too many are oversimplified and
essentially superficial.
"Although I do think that any
person could use such a device
to suil his own purposes, in this
particular instance I have
enough belief in Mr. Pope's (au
thor of yardstick) integrity to
know that such a factor was not
involved," Hice stated.
George Babilot, instructor of
economics, said that he felt such
a device has a "very limited
value as an indicator of political
philosophy."
Continuing he said, "this is an
attempt to put into isolated
compartments political views
which are actually incapable of
being sharply differentiated.
The numerical average obtained
does not reflect a clear view of
whether a person is liberal, re
actionary, or what-have-you,
because each category must be
considered by itself. The cate
gories do not lend themselves to
Rally On The Move
n
HERE'S HOW . . . This is how a rally crowd would look if it could
see itself coming. Two such crowds will merge after a start at dif
ferent places Friday night- This Is the first time such a split-personality
rally has been tried. Two pep bands will lead the rally
sections.
Rally To Split Friday; Groups
To Start At Union, Coliseum
The rally Friday night will have
a split personality.
The rally committee has an
nounced the following plan for
the pre-Missouri game rally.
All Tassels will meet at the
Union and launch half of the
rally from there at 6:45 p.m.
The Phi Kappa Psi pep band
will lead the group.
The Corn Cobs will meet at the
Coliseum and launch the other
half of the rally at 6:45 p.m.
The regular pep band will lead
off from the Coliseum.
'Circle' Tryouts Set
Monday, Tuesday
Tryouts for "The Circle" will be
held in Room 201 b the Temple
Monday from 3 to 5 p.m. and
Tuesday from 3 to 5 p.m. and 7 to
9 p.m.
"The Circle," an English com
edy, is the second of three Uni
versity Theatre productions to be
given this semester.
The play was written by W.
Somerset Maugham who also
wrote "Trio," "Quartet" and "The
Razor's Edge."
David Hayes, who will direct
the production of "The Circle,"
invites and urges all University
students to try out for its cast. He
emphasized that one does not have
to be a speech major to try out
for the play's cast. In the past, he
said, some of the finest actors in
University Theatre have been
from all over city and Ag cam
pus.
The pepsters will go to the
Union if their squad leader is a
Tassel and to the Coliseum if their
leader is a Cob. The Yell Squad
will be divided, half starting from
each place.
The rally committee expects
the rest of the students to be
nearly evenly divided between
the two starting points. At each
place the group will follow the
band in a march to a point
where the two groups will meet.
After the two rallies merge they
will proceed to the rallying
place.
The members of the pep squad
will line up directly behind the
bands when the rally starts.
Speakers at the rally will be
Kay Curtis, Bob Davis and George
Prochaska.
Name Winkelmann
Air Cadet Colonel
Don Winklemann has been
named cadet wing commander of
the Air ROTC program at the
University for the first semester
Lt. Col. Alex C. Jamieson, pro
fessor of air science, and tactics
has announced.
Winkleman was chosen on the
basis of scholarship, leadership
and military bearing, Colonel
Jamieson explained. The new as
signment gives Winklemann the
rank of cadet colonel.
The University's air cadet
colonels serving as squadron com
manders are Richard Bierman,
Wayne Handshy, and John Greer.

George Karabatsos, physics
major, believes the "yardstick"
has value, but it depends en
tirely on how individual defines
and interprets the terms used.
Robert E. Knoll, assistant pro
fessor of English declared that
"It is an amusing parlor trick
and just about as significant as
a bridge game."
Marlene Willie, student at
Teachers College, said, "it is not
very exact, since you can't aver
age one possible extreme against
another."
Nancy Weir, majoring in so
cial work, asks, "as far as it
goes it is very good but how
can you say that these are the
most important issues? Or, are
these necessarily the only ways
one might feel about the issues
mentioned?"
Most of the interviewees felt
that one might easily read into
the phrases and understand
them to mean whatever suited
the individual. Also, some men
tioned that the standards given
as "estimated public opinion
1952," "Republican average,"
and "Democratic average" led
people into choosing those
categories which best fit their
preconceived ideas.
One person interviewed, who
did not wish his name to be
used, pointed out that one was
practically forced to use either
columns two or three because of

By CHUCK BEAM
Ag Editor
Students, alums and interested
ndividuals will pay tribute to the
founder of home economics at the
annual Ellen Richards dinner
Thursday night. This dinner cli
maxes a day of demonstrations,
tours and discussions about the
home economics department.
We of the Ag campus should
congratulate the members of the
judging teams and their coaches
for the fine representation they
gave the University at the judg
ing contests in Kansas City. In
the wool judging contest the team
won all but two of the ribbons
and trophies present for the con
test. Other teams which made a
good showing both individually
and in team competition were the
meats and senior livestock judg
ing teams. Even though the mem
bers receive college credit for
participating on these teams, this
doesn't cover the amount of Sat-j
urday afternoons and weekday
evenings they spend in learning
the finer points of judging.
While we are back-patting we
might add the Ag Union to the
list of good organizations. They
have instilled rood relationship
between the students and pro
fessors with their "Potluck with
Profs." The last of the first six
series was presented last Sun
day night but Mrs. Peters, Ag
Union director, said that the
second series would be started
some time late in November.
Other Union activities which
will take up where the dinners
left off are the dancing lessons,
Saturday evening shows and the
handicraft classes.
Oh, yes, before I forget, the All
University Fund will get financial
assistance from Aggie's when the
boy shells out for the pretty box
and lass at the Box Social Nov. 4.
Even though this is election day,
yours truly predicts a good return
for the effort of the AUF organl
zati"on.
The grapevine has revealed
that the Ag Builders and Coun
tryman's office will undergo a
facelifting in the near future.
Here's hoping, because any im
provement would surely be no
ticed by the students of the col
lege. While we are on the sub
ject of the Ag Builders it looks
like the organization is up and
coming by the attendance at the
mass meeting Wednesday night.
Even though no activities are
planned for the campus on Hallo
ween night, I will predict that the
traditional shack will appear on
the steps of Love Hall and the
sidewalks and windows at the
AGR house and Farm House will
receive their yearly bath of molasses.
