tour of Beirut, Lebanon, March
1-15.
Chester Keith, mayor of Leba
non, Neb., was contacted by
the Lebanon government through
the International Office of Tour
ism. Because he was unable to
make the trip, Keith selected Har
ris as his representative.
The Republic of Lebanon has in-
. vited 23 mayors and their wives
from all towns in the United States
bearing the name Lebanon to visit
Bierut. These mayors of towns lo
cated in 20 states will visit Bierut
in honor of the 100th anniversary
of the first Lebanese immigration
to the United States. At the pres
ent time, some 300 thousand Leb
anese are United States citizens.
Government Tours
The theme of the two week tour
Is the Lebanese International
Homecoming. The tours being con
ducted by the government, and
the Office of Tourism will cover
all expenses encountered during
Harris' stay in Lebanon.
Karris will leave New York Fri
day by plane and will arrive in
Amsterdam, Holland, Sunday.
From Amsterdam he will go to
Beirut. He will arrive Tuesday in
Beirut for the two week tour.
One of the highlights .of his stay
In Lebanon will be the presenta
tion to the mayors or their repre
sentatives of Lebanese flags and
other materials including growing
Cedars of Lebanon and cedar
cones to be planted in the city
grounds of their home communi
ties. These planted cones are to
be a symbol of the friendship
which exists between the two coun
tries. To Visit Jerusalem
While in Europe Harris will also
visit Holland. Italy. Austria.
Switzerland, Germany, France and
England. He will visit Jerusalem
during the Lenten season, leaving
Beirut enroute to Jerusalem on
March 15.

March 18 Harris will see the sec
retary of the YMCA and be in the
area during the Lenten season up
to the period of resurrection.
He will leave Jerusalem April

to Naples, arriving April 17. From
Naples Harris will go to Rome
where he will be in an audience
of the Pope.
Following his stay in Rome,

According to Harris, the major
emphasis of the trip, costing about
$1200, will be observance of the
Lenten Season in the Holy City,
creation of a better understanding
of the people and their cultures,
and the chance to bring back some
thing of value to the community,

Morrill Hall Exhibit
Modern Art Arouses
Campus Controversy
By JUDY BOST
Staff Writer
Examples of contemporary art
now being shown in Morrill Hall
have aroused much controversy
among art students on the cam
pus. Both non-objective and impres
sionistic paintings are being ex
hibited in the March show of the
Kebraska Art Association, bring
ing examples of the art world's
most bitter controversy to the Uni
versity. University art students com
mented that one of the greatest
misconceptions about' art was the
belief that all modern art was of
the variety that looks like spilled
paint.
Non-objective or Don-realistic
paintings, which the con-initiated
call dirty pallettes passed off as
art, represent an appeal to aesthe
tic senses rather than an attempt
to express any literary meaning,
stodents saidd.
Painters of this type of art fall
Into many schools of interpreta
tion, Pablo Picasso shows many
likenesses to the style of Cezanne.
There is also a New York school
representicg another variety of
coo-objective art, they added.
Impressionists rely on subject
mailer and the use of a figure to
convey thought, they continued.
for exponents of this type of art
use a lot of the swirling motion,
bold lines and vivid color of Van
Gogh.
Art students felt that the prin
ciples of modern or contempo
rary art are not difficult to un
derstand. In literature, worcs be
come tools used to convey a f3el
ing. Words, they continued, are su
perficial. It is the conveyance of
an impression or an idea that is
important; contemporary art is
tms same principle applied to
painting.
Another misconception is that
all contemporary art is done by
the pizza-and-beer boys of Green
wich Village, art students said.
Not all artists are unconventional
types who live in caves and by
strict Spartacism insure inspira
tion, they said.
"It is a cultural crime that so
few students take advantage of
the exhibits of many artists of all
periods, not just contemporary art
ists, that are available in Morrill
Hall," one of the students said.
"Perhaps then, if more people
understood and appreciated art,
we would not be regarded as the
"squirre'Jy characters" of the
campus," she added with a hint
of a smile. I

By LUCIGRACE SWITZER
Staff Writer
The Coatless wonder of the
campus is Dick Marrs. He is not
crazy, but he is not cold either,
he explained.
In answer to continual questions
by curious students, Marrs finally
revealed the reason he goes with
out a coat, even in the dead of
winter.
Its simple: "I don't need one.
he said. He admitted that when
the temperature reaches 15 below
or more be sometimes wears
coat. He did wear one a couple of
weeks before Christmas, however
when the temperature was only
about zero.
"I did it out of sympathy for the
other students whom I met on
campus," he said, "but I caught
a cold."
He explained he had nothing in
particular against coats. In fact
he admitted he owns a topcoat and
a jacket, "just like anvone else
Only I don't need them."
This curious state of affairs
came about when Marrs spent sev
eral years in Alaska where he
weathered temperatures of 50 de

grees below zero and lower. With
a dfczen other fellows he was a
member of the Polar Bear Club
which considered swimming in
Alaskan mid-winter a pleasant
recreation.
"After that, the cold here just
doesn't affect me any more,"
Marrs concluded. "It's just a mat
ter of conditioning."
Marrs expressed hope that his
explanation might bring an end to
the constant questioning to which
he is subject whenever he appears
on campus without a coat which
is all the time. People not only
ask questions such as "Why don't
you buy a coat?" but some ac
tually question his sanity.
If the explanation does not bring
such comments to an end, maybe
the coming of spring will halt
them until next winter, anyway.
