Editorial
Thanksgiving, 1954
For the greater part of its fifty-odd years of publica
tion, The Nebraskan has used this last issue before the
Thanksgiving holidays to make a last entreaty for stu
dents to be thankful rather than only relieved when
Thanksgiving rolled around. These words on being
thankful were written with one purpose in mind, to try
to make students think on more serious things than the
next term paper date, hour examinations after the rest
period or the big party scheduled the eveningof the first
day at home.
Whether the attempts have been successful or not
in the past or will be this time is a matter of question.
Whether we give thanks to our parents, a god, a gov
ernment or to the good green 'dollars that keep us in
school, all of us could do well to be grateful.
For the pseudo-individualists who are strong in their
belief they are what and where they are because of their
own ability, let them be thankful for life itself. Though
they may do great things with that life, the debt remains.
For the student who is putting himself through this
University who feels a sting of bitterness toward those
who are not and feels no gratitude toward the world, let
him be grateful for a government which allows him to
work and learn, let him be grateful to the someone who
had money and established scholarships.
For the wealthy man's son or daughter who comes to
school as a matter of course, let him be grateful to the
someone who made sacrifices and worked to accumulate
the material wealth he now enjoys. Let him be grateful
for that chance of birth that brought him into the privi
ledged class.
And for the rest of us who fall into the great gulf
between these two extremes, let us be thankful that we
are where we are.
May we all be thankful. vThe world, with all its
faults, is a good place to be and we are here, literally on
top of it. T.w.
Ataturk University
Turkish Enthusiasm
For Improvement Told
"The great enthusiasm of the
Turkish people for improving
themselves," was the most out-
standingimpressiojj of E. L.
Lambert," dean of the Agricultur
al College, on his return from a
six week trip to Turkey. Lambert
and six other University faculty
members had been sent to help
organize the proposed Ataturk
University.
Lambert commented that there
have been many changes both po
litically and economicall.' in Tur
key in the past thirty years. In
touring eastern Turkey, Lambert
said he found the country very
poor, and using very primitive
methods. Eastern Turkey is
mostly made up of small villages
and tiny farms which raise most
ly livestock.
Met With Enthusiasm
The education?' facilities, h e
said, are very poor, with hardly
any schools and a scarcity of
teachers. . His mission was met
with a great deal of enthusiasm
because most of the people real
ized that education was the
only answer to their prob'-ms.
The Turkish government is mak
ing many changes in order to
modernize Turkey, T.ambert said.
By sponsoring more ' educational
programs and by encouraginj
more industry in Turkey, the gov
ernment hopes to correct the poor

Opposed To Russia
Another member of the six-man
group, A. T. Anderso associate
professor of liistory, observed that
Turkey is "definitely looking to
ward the West for political leader
ship." They have been unfriendly
with Russia for hundreds of years,
he said, and are determined to
oppose any Russian advances.
"They are difinitely not afraid of
Russia," he added, "in fact, they
don't worry about the Communists
at all.
Anderson felt that Turkey, which
has long been indifferent to the
other Moslem countries, has re
cently been making attempts to
woo them. "They would like to ns
sume a position of leadership in
the area preferably an intellec
tual leadership."
Anthology Accepts
Dawson's Poetry
A poem, written by Jon Daw
son, has been accepted for publi
cation in the Annaul Anthology of
College Poetry.
Dawson, a sophomore majoring
in music, does creative writing as
a hobby. This is the first time
he has had anything published.
The poem, "Thwart Not The
Genius," emphasizes the belief
that all people who have talent
should develop it to the great ex
tent because there are some who
have no talent at all.

president of the COA, I have been
notified that this verdict will be
upheld by the University adminis
tration. But due to the lateness
of the verdict, a re-election will
not be feasible."
"Therefore, the Military Ball
will open the Nebraska University
social season as usual Some Uni
versity coed will be presented at
the Ball to replace the Honnrarv
Commandant. The procedure to be
touowed by the COA on the final
selection of this girl is indefinite
at this time."
Art Raun. chairman of the Ju
diciary Committee, announced the
elections, sponsored by the COA,
were invalid due to negligence on
the part of the COA.
In a report released shortly after
the decision was passed, the com
mittee stated that this action has
been taken because of the failure
of the COA to comply with the
following rules: 1) notify the Stu
dent Council Elections chairman
two weeks in advance of the data
on which the election is to be held.
2) provide persons to operate tha
polling place, Including a faculty
member, and 3) provide people
to count the votes, to include a
faculty member.
Mann, in replying to these
charges, said that, "through negli
gence on my part, I failed to no
tify the chairman of the Elections
Committee, Dan Rasdal, about the
second election. I didn't notify
him because I didn't know I Jiad
to. However, they were notified
by a letter, dated Oct. 12, inform
ing them of our plans for the first
election which was held Oct. 26.
In this letter the date Nov. 11
was mentioned for the second ejec
tion." In answer to the second charge
Mann said, "ROTC cadets did
operate the polls, and faculty
members were present although
they were not seated at the ballot
ing tables at the time." Regard
ing the third charge, Mann also
noted that faculty members were
present most of the time while
the votes were being counted.
The report by the Judiciary Com
mittee was based on the power
held by the Student Council, grant
ed to them bv their constitution.
to schedule and conduct all stu
dent elections of general interest
to the University and to decide
on the validity of Student Council
elections. On these grounds, the
Honorary Commandant elections
were unanimously voted invalid.
Committee members were: Art
Raun, chairman; Dick Fellman,
John Gourlay and Jack Rogers.
During the meeting, Mann was
called to testify on behalf of the
COA. The Student Council Elec
tions Committee submitted charges
questioning the validity of the
elections, and were called in to
testify after Mann had replied to
the Judiciary Committee. Mem
bers of the Elections Committee
were Dan Rasdal, chairman, An
drew Hove and Andy Smith.
Lt. Col. Donald J. Kievit, asso
ciate professor of military science,
commented, "No one will know
until the Military Ball who has
been selected as the Honorary
Commandant. We may select four
candidates based upon our selec
tion. Whoever is selected, and from
which group, will be kept secret
until presented at the Ball."
