By DON PIEPER Editor Now that the student body has had a chance to have its say about Sunday social events, let's look over the idea again. Present rules treat Sundays this way: "Dances, card parties and organisation ban quets may not be held on Sunday . . . Sunday night sappers which are planned by the Moth er's Club of the rroup or the alumni may be held only during- the supper hour . . The administration had reason to think last year that there might be some student opinion toward an extension of these requirements. Since University officials were not disposed to plunge into a general upheaval of existing rules, the sub committee on social affairs (a sub-committee of the general faculty committee on student affairs) was commissioned to make a study of the situa tion. The sub-committee, under the able leader ship of Miss Marjorie Johnston, Dean of Women, decided to make this study from two points: 1) the situation on other campuses and 2) student expression here of the need for a change. A comprehensive questionaire was sent to stu dent affairs offices of several of our more im portant neighboring schools and the results showed that our campus is very much in line with what is going on elsewhere. But Miss Johnston's committee was not satis fied with this knowledge alone. Committee mem bers felt that the student's opinion should be discovered also. So a letter was sent to organized houses Greek and independent asking that the Sunday situation be discussed and that the re sults of that discussion be sent back to the com mittee. Generally, students weer asked if there is a demand for Sunday events. Very sketchy returns seem to indicate that such interest is very low if existent In the first place, all stu dent( organizations have not even taken advan tage of this chance to present opinion. What the committee will do with its infor mation remains to be seen but some conclusions seem to be obvious. If there is no great move ment on the campus to hold social events of an organized scale on Sunday, it seems wrong that NEBRASKAN EDITORIALS the social rules should prohibit such events. A negative rule, such as we have now, seems to in dicate that the demand is there and the Univer sity is holding that demand back. Some persons have argued that it is wrong to hold organized parties on Sundays for religious reasons. I sincerely believe that these persons have a right to their opinion, however I do not feel that removing the restrictions against card parties and dancing is opening the way to mass Sunday brawls. Organizations would Still have the right to decide when such events would be held. If certain members felt that Sunday was the wrong time, those members could make their feelings known to their own group. I do not think that those individuals have much basis . for arguing against making it possi ble for such organizations as wish to hold Sun day parties to have them. In other words, the final decision is up to the organization and in dividual thought has a chance to dictate to each group. The fact that different religions desig- resulting gument restrictive and unfair. WORLD REPORT By PAUL MEANS TODAY'S HEADLINES ...

Segregation Some have mentioned that huge parties would Uf dr GOP Flf certainly be scheduled if the restrictions against dancing were lifted from the Sunday scene. I don't honestly see' how any thinking organization could schedule a big dance for Sunday if the women's closing hours remain at 10:30 p.m. And I don't think that it would be a good idea to change those hours there ought to be one night in a weekend when students (male and female) have a chance to study without the temptation of late dating. Furthermore, there doesn't seem to be any great movement on campus to hold such events on Sundays anyway. Other campuses have also found this to be true. I feel, therefore, that the administration should strike these restrictions from the Sunday rules. Pally (EDITOR'S NOTK: Tna follnwln t.inal was published In I be Cornell Sun.. Attorney General Herbert Brownell has fired the first shot in a battle to abolish segregation in the nation's capital, as Presi dent Eisenhower promised during his campaign. If successful in th initial encounter, Brownell will have seriously weakened a major point of the Communist propaganda bid - to convince Asians that the United States is a hotbed of intolerance which de nies rights to all but white men. Brownell's point of attack has been on segregation in restau rants.

If you think a long TV session with "I Love Lucy" bothers your eyes, wait till you spend 80 cents to see third-dimensional movies. I was far more impressed by toe ceermony connected with getting to see 3-D, than by the films themselves. The 80 cents admis sion is the first thing that struck me. It was a Diner diow. i was eiven a ticket, and I assumed that this was all there was to do. After getting into the foyer, how ever, I found out the girl in the ticket booth had forgotten to give me the other ticket for the 3-D sun glasses. These glasses aren't exactly sun glasses, but, unfor tunately, the movie industry rushed into 3-D so fast, it for got to name the glasses you look at the other dimension with. I went back to the ticket booth, got my glasses-ticket, spilled my popcorn and went to the movie. I don't think I was unduly vexed m at my bad luck, or overly pr-& judiced about the common every day 2-dimensional movie that was on, but it was strictly a common everyday 2-dimensional movie, in every respect. Shortly this movie, all about the British Fusiliers, ended. Then the screen blatantly announced that, "Now is the time." Yes, thea was the time to put on your sun glasses.

But, comparing library hours at the University with those at other colleges, one observes the following facts: 1. Most college libraries are open from 85 to 90 hours a week, according to Director of Li braries Frank A. Lundy. Love Memorial Library is open 75 hours. 2. Although most college libraries close at 10 p.m. or later (at midnight at the University of Iowa and Oklahoma A&M) on week days, li brarians start shooing students out of Love Li brary shortly after 9 p.m. Monday through Thurs day and before 5 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. 3. Many college libraries are open sometime on Sunday, if not during the afternoon and eve ning. But Love Library closes its doors on Sat urday afternoon, not to open them again until Monday. These are the facts concerning our University library. The library is excellent, but the hours are restricted. The reason for reduced hours, of course, stems from a common dilemma in the State of Nebraska lack of funds. Money is simply not available to pay salaries and other expenses involved in opening the largest building on campus for any extended hours. m Although the demand for longer hours has existed for several years with no results there is new hope for additional hours of library serv ice, according to Lundy. That hope rests with the budget request sub mitted by the University to the Unicameral. Lundy estimated that from $6,000 to $7,500 in the proposed budget would go toward obtaining ad ditional library services during a single year. The result, he suggested, might mean opening the library on Sunday afternoons and evenings. Six thousand dollars a year is a great deal of money to pay for perhaps seven hours of library service a week. If this were the sole result, that would mean, discounting holidays, a cost of ap proximately $150 a Sundaynot including Janitor ial service and other expenses involved in operat ing the building. Is the additional service worth the cost? Ex- Yesteryear At MU ...

Ail ot amine the testimony of the following students and faculty members. Graduate students have frequently requested li brary services on Sundays and during Saturday afternoons during football season, according to Robert W. Goss, dean of the Graduate College. (The library closes at noon on football days.) Graduate students in the School of Social Work, according to Student Association President Phil Hain, particularly rely on long library hours. JEXAS A&M Most social work students, he said, desire a io ja p.m. closing hour as well as library time on Sun days, particularly Sunday night. Required talks and out-of-town trips, he said, prevent students from using the library with its present hours to the fullest advantage.

The At-the public didn t get overly ex fare for the evening. They were sundry in their sub ject matter, but they were all Adam C. Breckenridge, chairman of the De partment of Political Science, called the 9 p.m. deadline "absurd" and said he has "never been able to swallow objections to opening the 'ibrary on Sunday." He was particularly concerned about students who work or participate in campus ac tivities during the afternoons. Breckenridge pointed out that upperclassmen and graduate stu dents in his department practically live in the library. For that reason, he said, they need ex tended service hours. He suggested shoving the week-day closing hour to 10 p.m. and opening the library from 2 to 6 p.m. Sunday. Several students and faculty members pointed out that for students who work in the afternoons the library offers no more than two hours of study time four days a week. Obviously, this limitation seriously handicaps these students particularly those with a house meeting or a night class or two each week. From the dificulties presented above, it ap pears necessary in all fairness to busy University students, to extend the hours of the library. Neither the state nor the University should al low a matter of $6,000 to stand in the way of enabling students to obtain maximum use of the library. If there is a demand, as there seems to be, for additional hours, the Unicameral must not block the University's bid to keep the library open longer. Let's face it'.

There is one remarkable thing By DICK RALSTON Staff Writer Even back in yesteryear, the editorial page of The Nebraskan was at least partially filled with columnists. One of these who went by the name (or was christened) "Artemus" turned his cynical pen to the subject of "spring" a couple of de cades ago: "Spring is here. You can tell it by the pla cid, bovine expression on the ordinarily steely countenance of each student; you can tell it by "the presence of the robins they invariably arrive one weeV before a good sized snow btorm; you can tell It by the propaganda emanating from 'Mortar Board, 'honorary senior women's organization,' forewarning you of the coming selection 'by pop ular vote of the Junior and Senior women' of the May Queen; you can tell it by the stock remark of everyone you meet: 'Spring is here at last SPRING HAS COME Spring again has come! Oh fee, fi fo fum. Poems are all dumb.' I'm sleepy; Ho hum!" On spring, the editor commented tersely: "Speaking of spring, we hereby make a solemn promise that we will not foist on the readers the customary clever editorial on signs of spring.
