merican Girls Look Alike,
Student From Formosa Says
Lichu Chen Finds Coed Interests Similar World Over
"All American girls seem to
dress the same way, talk the
same way and act the same way.
Because of this, I had a terrible
time telling them apart at
first."
This was one of Lichu Chen's
first imnrssinne of America
Miss Chen, a phyics and math
major, is a junior from Formosa.
She attended the University of
Formosa ner iresnman year

ing conducted Thursday through

director of the Oneida County
Child Guidance Center, Utica, N.
Y.
THE SECOND session in the

to 14 by Dr. Jackson Smith, as
sistant professor of psychiatry at

Directory Supplies Drop
As Sales Accelerate
Bill Devries, sales manager of
the 1953-1954 Student Directory,
advises all activities wanting Stu
dent Directories for their offices
to obtain them as soon as pos
sible. Devries said "the directories
are being sold so fast this year
that supplies are not expected to
last much longer."
Up to now, approximately 1800
directories have been sold.
NU's Potsy Clark
Named Delegate
George Clark, director of ath
letics at the University of Ne
braska, bas been named as a
National Collegiate Athletic As
sociation delegate to the quad
rennial meeting of the United
State Olympic Committee. The
committee meets Nov. 30 and J
Dec 1 in Washington, D. C, to j
plan for the next Pan American j
and Olympic Games.
doing this in co-operation with
the Diabetes Committee of the
Nebraska State Medical Associa
tion. The purpose of this week
is to put before the people of
Nebraska the importance of tak
ing tests to detect diabetes.
SOME of the symptoms of di
abetes are: changing vision, in
crease in thirst, itching, frequent
urination, loss of weight in spite
of good appetite and pains in the
arms and legs.
Dr. Floyd L. Rogers, chairman
of the state diabetes committee,
said that these symptoms are not
always apparent. Diabetes De
tection Week is an attempt to
fill this gap by detecting persons
who are unaware that they have
diabetes.
By taking a diabetes test, a
person may discover that he is a
diabetic early enough so that,
with proper treatment, he may
lead a normal life later on.
NU Debaters
To Attend
Two Meets
This weekend the University
debate teams will officially open
their tournament season as they
travel to Omaha University and
the University of South Dakota.
The debaters have participated
in seven audience debates this
fall, but these two meets will be
the first regular contests in de
bate, discussion, and extempora
neous speaking.
THE QUESTION for debate is,
Resolved: The U n it e d States
should adopt a policy of free
trade. In the discussion events,
the subject is How can present
procedures and practices of Con
gressional investigating commit
tees be improved?
Debating on the Omaha Univer
sity campus will be Jere McGaf
fey and Dick Fellman, debate and
discussion; Don Overholt and
Charles Kiffen, debate; Jerry
Igou and Russel Gutting, debate;
Norman Alexander and Charles
Klasek, debate.
Debating at Vermillion, South
Dakota, will be Alan Overcash
and Homer Kenison, discussion.
debate, and extemporaneous
speaking; and Sandra Rnmers
and Sharon Mangold, discussion
and debate.
Just to prove that there are
students sensible enough to re
alize how detrimental television
can be to proper study habits, the
residents of the girls' dorms at
Midland College have voted 91 to
2 against the purchase of new
television sets for the dorm parlors.
After attending Mount St. Jo
sephs in Ohio for a year, she
was awarded a tuition scholar
ship to the University.
Although her family is now
living in Formosa, she lived in
France for eight years.
MISS CHEN commented upon
the apparent world-wide simi
larity between girls. All girls
seem to like to gather into little
groups and gossip about boys
and clothes. However, Chinese
girls talk much of the time about
more serious things like home
work, she added.
School girls in China never
wear jeans just slacks, Miss
Chen said. Because they ride bi
cyles to school, girls wear skirts
and blouses instead of Chinese
dresses.
A N OTHER AMERICANISM
which particularly struck Miss
Chen was the monotony of the
food. "I can hardly get used to
sandwiches and cold food all the
time," she said. "Anything iced,
including iced water or soft
drinks, is unusual in China."
Milk, for instance, is served hot.
Like many other foreigners,
Miss Chen was amazed at the
extensive mechanization and the
constant rush of American cul
ture. "It seems as though every
one is in a hurry to get some
thing done. Americans take too
little time for relaxation," she
said.
COMPARING THE University
of Formosa with the University,
Miss Chen pointed out that Chi
nese schools offer more required
courses. Students carry one ma
jor course with no minors. The
enrollment of Formosa Univer
sity is 3500.
College students carry a nor
mal load of 20 to 22 credit hours.
Therefore, fewer extra-curricular
activities are offered than in
America, Miss Chen noted. Stu
dents there must spend most of
their time studying, she said.
IN CHINA, the public schools
are controlled by the city gov
ernment. English is taught in
grade school. In high school, an
other foreign language pertain
ing to their field of study is re
quired of all students. For ex
ample. Miss Chen said, chem
istry majors take German.
She approved of the plans for
International Friendship Dinner
Tuesday. "All the foreign stu
dents that I'm acquainted with
would go if they were invited.
This is a good opportunity for
American students to meet and
talk with the foreign students,"
sh said.
