9 Friday, October 9, 195. Page 2 THE NEBRASKAN EDITORIAL PAGE Divorce In The fact that the honeymoon is over for the Eisenhower Administration was clearly demonstrated by several news stories ap pearing this week. Of course, the honeymoon has been over for some time; but this week's news sounds more like a divorce is in the offing. Two cabinet members pulled political boners which the Democrats will likely make much of; in addition, the nation's press has been considerably irked. Attorney General Brownell made his faux pas when he alienated the working press by choosing a limited and special audience for the announcement of Warren's appointment as Chief Justice. Five newspapers were given the scoop . while the rest of the press remained in ig norance. This provoked other newspaper men to Inquire whether this was to be the policy of the Administration to "leak" im portant news to friendly newspapers? An answer of no can hardly erase the ill feeling created by such favoritism; for, be sides newsmen who were scooped, the gen eral public may take the attitude that hap hazard, arbitrary release of news to them is the sign of an Administration not anxious to publish all of the news. Then, to add to waning public confidence, Secretary Wilson confused the man on the street and no doubt his own Republican col leagues this week by virtually contradicting himself and the President on the question of Russia' H-bomb capabilities. Said tha President Tuesday, ". . . every na tion and society" might be doomed by atomic warfare. Further he warned that Russia was awara of the "mysteries of the atom." Said Secretary Wilson Tuesday a few hours later,. It might be "stretching it a bit" to say Runssia has a practical H-bomb ' and the planes to deliver it. "V - This leaves the nation a little perplexed. When tha Atomic Energy Commission, the Charitable Charity University students are an inquisitive, cur ious lot Nothing seems to escape their penetrating minds. For Instance, now that AtJF has initiated Its ifall drive, questions are being raised v about AUF. ; .- - ;'. How is it financed, who gets the money, are precautions taken to insure against, pil-. fering of the funds?" These questions are easily answered 'and AUF, both through The Nebraskan and its own solicitors, has answered these. However, one of the questions now being asked by skeptical students is so provoking, The Nebraskan determined Jt was, worth an , answer. The question is usually stated, "Well, I al ways heard that charity begins at home. What about the AUF Kick-off dinner?" This is a legitimate question in that it im- -plies, "Who pays for it AUF workers or the whole student body by means of a percent age take-off of donations " This question has been raised by several students during the week, so The Nebraskan, anxious to serve the student body, investi gated. Wt found that the dinner is NOT paid for .by using the 5, per cent campaign expense fund as many have charged. In other words, your donation to AUF does NOT help to pay for the Kick-off dinner. We did find that the Union donates its services for' the dinner and the workers are required to furnish the decorations at no ex pense to AUF. In fact AUF officials maintain that in addi tion to the time donated by the solicitors, they are expected to donate money also usually more than the average donation. The 5 per cent campaign expense fund, in fact, is not fully used. Last year expenses amounted to a mere 2 per cent of the total; the other 3 per cent normally allowed as ex penses was diverted to Holland flood relief and the Omaha flood area. , So instead of using the expense fund for administrative costs (which would have in cluded the dinner), actually AUF surrendered its rightful claim to the money and donated it. to charity. In view of this, The Nebraskan believes that AUF is indeed aware that "charity be gins at home." E.D. Parking Vs. Huskers Campus parking almost lost the Huskers file service of John Bordogna Thursday. John missed the train carrying the football team to Saturday's encounter with Pitt be cause he couldn't find a parking place on campus. Fortunately, Lincoln police were able to rush Bordogna to Omaha in time to catch the train with only an 8 minute delay. The- acute parking situation has rated a lot of complaints in the past; but we believe this is the first time it almost contributed to the possible loss of a football game. E.D.

Editor Marianne Hansen. The Offing President and the Secretary of Defense pub licly disagree or at least have different ver sions of such1 an important subject, one can hardly conclude that unity is at a peak within high administration circles. Coupled with Secretary of Labor Durkin's resignation "over a Taft-Hartley dispute and Secretary of Agriculture Benson's unpopular farm policies, it looks as though Eisenhower has a full-time job just keeping peace within his family of close advisors. The political family however, unlike the married couple, can stand a divorce or an nulment on occasion and still remain intact. , But, on the other hand, confidence and unity are diminished. Just as with the married couple, fidelity and loyalty are required for a successful poli tical family. E.D. Are We Working? Perhaps this problem of school spirit lies not in discouragement with the team, well planned rallies, or opposition to our coach. Perhaps it lies in the fact that we just plain don't have enough school loyalty. Where does school loyalty come from? Does it come from yelling until we are hoarse or clapping our hands until they sting? -U '. .- No, loyalty does not come from any artifi cial activity. We must have the loyalty first, before we can express it in our cheering. School loyalty comes from working for your school The ideal is working for the University to improve it in some way perhaps in activi ties, sports or scholarship. It is the kind of work that makes you feel dog-tired at the end of the day. Put yourself on a trial basis. Work, work, and work some more for your school, not for yourself. Until you contribute this "some thing," you can never feel true loyalty. After a year of good solid work for your school, after many "dog-tired" evenings, you will have a feeling for the University that it would take a lot more than one or two de feats of the football team to take away. Then you will have "school loyalty." Why don't we stop sitting by and just let ting things run themselves. The team doesn't do that. As Gary Hild said we've given them a raw deal rejecting them for losing a game. They are working. Why don't we? C.H, Together For Once A student-conceived and supported pro gram has proved its worth it has been adopted by the University as a " permanent ruling. t ; The Inter-Fraternity Council-sponsored program, making a free physical .examina tion' and food handling training course avail- ' able to students at no cost at the Student Health Center has yet to prove its real value, but is a significant point in Student-Administration relations. The IFC plan, recently adopted by the University as a requirement for al food handlers and servers at the Ag and city Unions and the Women's Residence Halls, has shown students are really interested in their own welfare and need only a helping hand, not a detailed "program of assistance to turn out workable, functionable plans." This and few, too few, plans were worked out with students working with administra tive personnel, and the plan seems like a good one. It would be a laudable situation if cooperation and "working together" of this type could continue on even a more extensive basis. T.W. Margin Notes Toast To The Warriors Speaking of the AUF Kick-Off dinner, we are reminded of the Japanese custom,, during World War II, of a similar nature. Before they sent out the Kamikaze pilots, a ceremon ial dinner was held. SaRi was offered, how ever. (The Nebraskan does not advocate saki for AUF workers. Too hard to obtain anyway.) - 1953 Gladiators The crowds at the Coliseum in Rome would . have loved the show at Aberdeen, Md., Thursday when the Army gave a virtual "circus." The new 85-ton atomic cannon was the feature attraction, but barely managed to out-shine the new 58-ton tank . retriever. Of course, security regulations kept the ultra-secret objects under closely guarded wraps. But, there is always the. chance for a surprise "feature,", and the big-wigs turned' out in force for the "circus.' .- Good Luck, Council The Nebraskan wishes to congratulate the newly-elected members of the Student Coun cil of the College of Business Administration. We hope that the new board will become a true spokesman for the students of the Col lege and that other colleges will soon follow in its footsteps.

Letterip MB's Annoyance Standards by Dick Elbler Dear Editor Since the end of the first six weeks usually brings with it an established routine of classes and activities for the underclassmen and the beginning of extra-curricular life for the freshmen, we of the Black Masqde chapter of Mortar Board would . like to speak again about the achieve ment of balance between the curricula? and extra-curricular phases of college life. In addition to its ideals of leadership and service, Mortar Board strongly upholds the ideal of scholarship. Thus, we believe that high achievement in college lies first and foremost in scho lastic success. Therefore, in' selecting the 1954-55 members, Mortar Board On The I Aisle i Max Shulman is a writer of books depicting the lives of the younger set in America. Usually, ex-college boy Shulman writes about current college boys and girls. Not long ago Mad Max wrote a book called the "Many Loves of Dobbie Gillis." With the title slightly changed to "The Affairs of Dobbie Gillis," you can now see the screen ver sion of the book. Dobbie is more musically inclined in the film than he was on the pages. Also his taste in girls is better Debbie Reynolds! Shulman wrote the screen play for the movie. Actually Shulman without Shulman description is not very Shulmanesque. He wrote a mediocre scenario, but the show is humorous. You'll see intimations of you, your friends' and your profs in this movie. A young fella by the name of Van that's his last name plays Dobbie in the movie. He does some rather nice dancing twice in the process of the story as does Debbie.

BLACK MASQUE CHAPTER OF MORTAR BOARD 1953-54 Shulman Book Goej 'Cellyloid'-Still OK Yankee fan if you are a Brook lyn fan, don't go; it'll Just re open old wounds. About the only thing I can think of to say about the opus is that Edward G. Robinson plays a manager of a farm-club for the Giants. It occurred to me that Ed G. would have been a better Babe Ruth than William Bendix when Hollywood did the "Babe Ruth Story." Oh, yes Vera Ellen is in this movie, too. She doesn't dance, she doesn't play baseball, but she looks pretty. Getting back to "Dobbie Gil lis" if you've read any Max Shulman you'll enjoy this light comedy about college. For that matter you'll probably enjoy the movie if you haven't read any Max Shulman, You might even read some Max Shulman after seeing the movie. In short, you can hardly lose on vthis proposi tion since both the movie and a pocket book of Shulman would cost less than a dollar. Even if you don't like "Dobbie' I'm sure you'll like Debbie so herewith I'll stamp the seal of approval on mis Max snulma cook gone celluloid.
