Against 5
Dean To Decide
Case Next Week
A complaint against five Uni
versity students, charging inter
ruption of a regularly scheduled
class, has been filed in Dean of
Student Affairs Colbert's office
The complaint, filed by Ferris
W. Norris, professor of electrical
engineering, charges that John
Carper, Dwayne Burhans, Jack
Moore. John Sears and Dick John
ston interrupted his class while
they abducted Dan Razdal from
the class.
THE STUDENTS, all members
of Sigma Chi fraternity, entered
the class to "kidnap" Razdal,
Sigma Chi active, before leaving
on their annual pledge sneak.
Dean Colbert said Norris had
contacted his office by mail mak
ing the complaint in writing. "The
letter," Colbert said, "is Norris'
and will be treated as confiden
tial as is the testimony of the ac
cused students."
NORRIS, ON being contacted
by The Nebraskan. refused to re
veal any of the letter's content,
but did say, "Razdal was work
ing with . expensive equipment."
He added, "I do not feel I can
make a statement until after a
definite decision has been reacned
on the matter."
The letter reportedly asks that
the five students be "kicked" out
of school, the fraternity charter
be taken away and the discipline
used as an example for similar
instances in the future.
DEAN COLBERT said he could
make no further statement on
what discipline would be meted
out because, "I have not yet gath
ered all the facts concerned with
the matter."

is the largest since 194& and

DR. ROSENLOF said that al

Korean POW
Torture Lists
Are Released
For the first time the Army
has released details of Com
munist atrocities in Korea in
which 6,113 American prisoners
were barbariously murdered.
Photographs, charts and graphs
were released with the reports.
Most of the heinous crimes
were committeed at the end of
1950. Many civilians in Korea
were also killed during this time.
The release of this report at
this time was a direct result of
Dr. Charles Mayo's report to the
United Nations a few days ago.
Dr. Mayo told how the Reds com
pelled "confessions" from Ameri
can war prisoners about germ
warfare, a propaganda point used
many times by the Communists.
Conference Confusion
In another attempt at making
the Korean peace conference a
reality, Arthur Dean suggested
that the Reds cease demanding
seats for neutrals at the confer
ence and begin planning a time
and place for the political, con
ference. However, trouble arose from
this suggestion also. Dean called
Communist China and North Ko
rea "agents" of Russia and ac
cused the Soviets of pouring
weaons into Red Korea during
the war.

Increased;
ans. But Dr. Rosenlof cautioned
that both of these figures may be
low. "Under present federal pro
cedures the University has no
certain way of knowing promptly
how many of its students are Ko
rean veterans," he said.
DESPITE AN 18 per cent gain
in the number of applications
for admissions, the net gain in
new students 2076 over last
year is a little under five per cent.
Dr. Rosenlof said that this, coupl
ed with a decline in upper-class
registrations, may indicate that
Nebraska's late summer drought
may have wiped out some of the
anticipated increases.
Registration includes students
from every state except Alabama,
Delaware, Nevada, South Carolina
and West Virginia. Excluding Ne
braska, the states sending the
most students are: Iowa, 162;
South Dakota, 77, and Kansas, 77.

who leaves Saturday morning for
two years' study in Teheran,
Iran.
Miss McCutchan will go first to

her journey to Genoa, Italy.
From Genoa she will go to
Lebanon by boat. She will be ac

Miss McCutchan in Iran.
THE REASON for Miss Mc

learn languages which the Uni

foreign country. She will pursue
a two-year course in languages
and domestic arts.

SC Votes
To Appeal
Calendar
Interviews Set
For Wednesday
Student Council members voted
to appeal the proposed elimina
tion of the two-day reading period
before 1954 first semester exama
at a meeting Wednesday.
The action was taken follow
ing presentation of a tentative
schedule drawn up by the student-faculty
calendar committee.
DANNY FOGEL, Student Coun
cil member of the committee,
presented other features of tha
tentative calendar, which in
cluded: 1. The 1954 summer school will
run from June 10 to July 30.
2. Freshman Week will begin a
week later than usual, Sept. 13,
and classes will convene Sept. 20.
3. There will be a one day
grace period at the end of the
second semester due to Mem
orial Day.
This schedule now goes to tha
Faculty Senate for approval.
Fogel explained , that the eli
mination of the two days before
first semester exams was made
to facilitate the graduation of
mid-term students. He also ex
plained that the faculty did not
believe students used these two
days for studying. This two day
reading period will come at the
end of exams before second
semester classes.
HE EXPLAINED that school
was starting a week later, in or
der that summer school might
begin a week later. It is the
belief of the committee that this
will attract more high school
teachers as students since they
would have time to close their
schools before coming to Ne
braska. Due to the ROTC parade, inter
views for the Student Council
vacancy were postponed till next
Wednesday.
The Campus Improvements
committee reported that a "gripe
box" has been constructed and
lurned over the Student Union.
As soon as the Union puts up the
box, students and faculty mem
bers may turn in criticisms or
suggestions about campus prob
lems. THE JUDICIARY committee
reported that the Business Ad
ministration Executive Council
constitution was returned in or
der to work out several prob
lems; the BABW constitution was
approved to read that members
must have a 5.5 average instead
of 75 per cent, and the AWS con
stitution was returned for clari
fication and editing.
Weekly Ag Movie
"No Room For The Groom,"
starring Tony Curtis, Piper Lau
rie, and Don DeFore will be pre

The movie starts at 7:30. No
admission charge is made.
Homecoming Entries Due
Friday is the deadline for tha
entries for the Homecoming Pa
rade. All organizations wishing
to enter floats for the competi
tion should contact Martie Hill
at 1601 "R" Street or phone
2-7971 by 6 p.m.
come. The school offered her free
tuition and housing if she would
come, because officials of the
school felt her presence would
be good for the native girls in
the school.
Passport authorities were re
luctant to give Miss McCutchan
a visa until she had received of
ficial acceptance from the school.
Therefore she said she was go
ing to found a chapter of Adel
phi, her sorority, in Iran. On
these grounds, she obtained a
visa.
In addition, she was required
to take 14 hypodermic shots be
fore she was cleared. Luggage
was also a problem. Two large
trunks have already been sent
and some of her suitcases will
have to be shipped ahead, since
the baggage limit on the airplane
is 160 pounds.
AN INTERESTING sidelight
to the trip was provided by an
Iranian student at the University
who asked Miss McCutchan tr
take a mail order catalog to hit
parents in Iran. .
When interviewed Thursday,
Miss McCutchan. was still work
ing at her job in a local music
store.
"If I quit, I'll get scared," she
said.
