Nebraskans were indeed
proud of their native son
whose impressive political
record has brought him one
of the top administrative
posts in the nation.
As Nebraskans saluted
Brownell they saw in him a
spokesman for the Middle
West who has assumed his
duties in an administration
filled with Eastern business
men, An administration
which at times has not seen
eye to eye with the Midwest-

it is a great honor and re-

However, there was only a

were married in an afternoon
ceremony. Dr. Gustavson gave
Farida in marriage and the Rev.
I. J. Domas performed the cere
mony. Burbank is studying agricul
tural economics and Farida is a
student of political science and
international relations. After they
get their masters' degrees in Au
gust, they will go to Canada for
a few years and then both hope
to get their Ph. D.'s at Harvard.
The couple have found no bar

Mrs. Kristjanson said that she and
her husband found the least ofi
their problems in his being born'
a Christian and her being a Mos-,

Burbank studied at North Da

to Nebraska. Farida received a
scholarship to study at the Teach
ers College at Kirksville, Mo. Her
scholarship was extended a year
and she chose the University of
Nebraska because of family ac
quaintance with Chancellor Gus

Certain permissions were neces
sary for Farida and Burbank to be
married. The Iranian government,
through the Iranian embassy, had
to issue her a marriage permit
which would be recognized by the
Iranian government. And Burbank
had to get permission to take
Farida into his home country.
Their parents approve of the
marriage. Farida says, "They
think we are old enough to de

have met Farida and she was
heartily received.
