Selleck Says
NU Coliseum
Open To Many
Organizations
The University Coliseum Is
open for rental to student organ
izations, John K. Selleck, secre
tary of the Board of Regents,
has announced.
For any organization inter
ested to sponsor student func
tions for which admission is
charged, the Coliseum may be
rented for a minimum of $50 a
y night or 10 per cent of the gross
ticket sale less federal admis
sion tax. This amount, however,
would not exceed $350.
While previously scheduled
athletic events make it difficult
for scheduling rental dates, last
year's report shows Coliseum use
by several campus organizations.
Included in these functions were
the Kosmet Klub show, Home
coming Dance, Military Ball and
the Mortar Board Ball.
THE COLISEUM may also be
rented by a limited number of
groups other than University or
student sponsored groups. The
charge for this is a flat rate of
$350.
The Coliseum was oricinallv
erected in 1925 to house inter
collegiate basketball, intra-mural
athletics, physical education for
men and the annual June gradu
ation exercises.
The Board of Regents of the
University owns the building,
which was built at a cost of
$435,000. The Board manages the
operation of the Coliseum and is
in charge of the renting regula
tions. Money collected for the rental
is used to purchase the velvet
drapes, stage cyclorama and
hangings, stage lights, "party
lights," orchestra platform and
for cleaning of drapes and fire
proof treatment when needed.

Sigma Nu Housemother
Visits Malaya Hotspot
'Moms' Meets
Although her friends advised
her against it, Mrs. O. J. Fee,
commonly known as "Moms"
Fee, Sigma Nu house mother,
went through the guerilla terri
tory of Malaya as part of her
round-the-world trip this sum
mer, bhe and Adlai Stevenson
were the only Americans to
make the trip, riding in armored
cars followed by armored trucks.
With her son, E. P. J. Fee,
general manager of an oil com
pany for the Far East, Mrs. Fee
saw evidence of the great unrest
found in the oil and rubber cen
ter of Malaya. Mrs. Fee was
guarded at all times in the Jo
hore area which is the "number
one hotspot of Malaya." She was
guest of the Sulton of Johore
for lunch, she said, who "was
very surprised that 1 should
make the rtip. But if my son
could do it, so could I."
"COMMUNIST GUERILLAS
ould ambush convoys and burn
trucks carrying oil and rubber
to transportation depots," Mrs.
Fee said. "They would attack
plantations (usually two at a
time) in small bands taking any
thing of use including foodstuffs,
oil and rubber."
Mrs. Fee asserted that the
Communists were trying to con
trol the vast industries in Ma
laya, so that strict rulings were
made for workers and working
areas were guarded heavily. She
said it was common to see signs
throughout factories or planta
tions warning: "If anyone is
caught in here without a permit
may be shot on the spot."
"All trips are made in convovs
and there is no one on the roads
at night," she said. "Passenger
and freight trains are always fol
lowed by a train of armed Brit

"OFTEN BRITISH jets will
drop bombs trying to weed out
the Communists who hide in
small groups in caves and in the
jungle area," Mrs. Fee said.
"The British have also learned
how to fight like the guerillas,
and like snakes in the grass,
they must be hunted out."
A "food check" is made peri
odically in some of the towns
which are protected by guards
and barbed wire. Mrs. Fee, in
witnessing such an event, said
all the stores were closed and all
residences of the town were in
their homes. The army checked
to see if there was an over-quota
of food anywhere.
"The common belief is that the
guerillas are being fed by towns
people who sneak food to them,
so to defeat the guerillas, food
must be kept from them."
Mrs. Fee said that the British
felt this method was working
and that the situation in Malaya
this year is more under control
than it was last year.

Larry VVestphalen Realizes Ambitions For Education;
He Meets And
An 18-year old scnbner fresh
man, the only full-time wheel
chair student to attend the Uni
versity in recent years, Is liter
ally rolling through 'classes.
Ever since he can remember,
Larry Westphalen has Wanted a
college education. He was deter
mined to attend college this
year. "If vthey wouldn't accept
me here," he said, "I Was going
someplace lse." -:
"If I miss now, it's entirely
my own fault,'! Westphalen said.
"Everyone has been extremely
co-operative. I don't feel that I
myself have done much to meet
this challenge."
',
BUT THE Junior Division says
that Westphalen, who bas been
crippled from his waist down
since birth, is overly, modest.
Dr. J. C. Holmes, guidance con
sultant, said they have helped
Westphalen line up a schedule
which puts all his classes in One
block, but "he has carried the
ball from there."
"Larry wants to be like other
students. We are ready to give
him special assistance," Holmes !
said. "But when he meets a prob
lem, he overcomes it himself."
At Seribner High School,
Westphalen ranked first schol
astically in science and third in
overall scholarship. He was one
of 250 top high school graduates
given a University Freshman !
Scholarship.
Holmes said, "Larry has the
proper frame of mind and the
intelligence for completing a ;
college education. Of course, the j
important obstacle is his ability j
to get to and from classes.
HOWEVER. WESTPHALEN
seems to have the problem lick- j
ed. He lives alone in a downtown
hotel. In the morning he drives
to the campus in a hand-lever
operated car which he parks in
a reserved area. Then he swings
out of his car into the wheel
chair, which he assembles him
self. Dick Keleckmer, freshman

Although many of his even

religious organization, and occa
sionally goes bowling. He drives
o miles to 'his home on a Scrib-
ner farm every week end, unless
the Huskers have a home game,
He is an ardent sports far i and

Schaefer, who has worked with
Larry for the past few years,
said, "I felt that a great deal of
credit is due to Larry's parents.
who encouraged him to become
as independent as possible."
Westphalen says about his new
experience:
.j feei that this will all work
,ut all right. The first few days
were an emotionat strain. I wor
ried about getting o class on
time. But now that problem is
cleared up, I feel that I have a
wonderful ooDortunitv to eain
