Painted
By MARY SHELLEDY
Copy Editor
They painted the post!
In the middle of the Nebraskan
offices, now being remodeled, the
octagonal pillar has succumbed to
pressures of sanitation and order
liness and has been covered with
light green speckle paint. v
The post holds up the ceiling
sometimes but it also has held
autographs and height records of
years of Nebraskan staff mem
bers. '
Legends written in grubby copy
pencil by grubby staff hands, some
of them dating back to the days
when the Nebraskan was a daily,
covered the yellow paint. "Record
for story length, 30 Apr J 1953;
Election Platforms," reads a sign
eight feet from the floor.
On the same side of the post was
a black-bordered rectangle, "12
May 1955 Mr.' Knoll came to
visit." Around the corner, a mark
on the wall identified "Ruth Ray
mond, naive girl editor, 14 hands
high." "That's a lot of hands.
And fingers too," read another ad
dition.
On the wall facing the business
office was the unofficial motto,
"All the News That Fits in Print."
Circled in stark black is the leg
end, "What is Ethics?" No an
swer is recorded.'
Above that, written in copy
pencil, is the admonition: "When
you go before the big publication
board in the sky, xemember it's
not if you wrote or not but how
you corrected copy."
Jan Harrison, editor last spring,
signed her height mark with "writ
by hand, learned yesterday in
handwriting 69."
New reporters once spent half
their first afternoon in "the offices
in the Union basement, reading the
post. In the future they will have
to forego this. That new speckle
paint is terribly hard to write on.

Glenna Berry returned Wednes
day from the YMCA World Cen
tennial in Paris'. Miss Berry was
the University ,YWCA delegate.
"We stressed the idea that we
are not alone -)- there are many
with the same ideals as we," she
said. The main theme was the
Christian's responsibility in a
changing world, she added.
Miss Berry explained that the
Centennial includec all phases of
YMCA work Y-Teens, Young
Men's Conference and Older Men's
Conference.
One of 40 members of the Na
tional Student Council of YM and
YW, Miss Berry spent the rest of
the summer traveling in England,
Italy, France and Germany.
In England she talked with rep
resentatives from' the labor, con
servative and liberal parties. They
gave opinions on free trade agree
ments, Red China, compulsory
health service, nationalization of
all industry and the British colon
ial policy.
Miss Berry visited the school
systems of London where a select
ed education is employed. When a
student is at the age of 11,' he
takes an exam to determine for
which school, grammar, technical,
or highest grammer (college pre
paratory) he is fitted, she ex
plained.
"Germany was the high point of
the trip," Miss Berry said. "It is
the center of great tension in
Europe," she added. "All the is
sues depend on the unification
of Germany.

larly hospitable and pleasant to

Hoiberg explained that these meet
ings were usually held in "Amer

sion in German cities.
Speaking in German, the team
explained the movement in Ameri
can church affairs from a lay
standpoint.
Two things, Hoiberg said, stand
out among his impressions of West
Germany today.
"One is that the churches of
Germany are really the one and
only organized connecting link be
tween East and West Germany to
day," he said. Not only are the
churches of Germany unified or
ganizationally, he explained, but
they are doing a great deal to
w a r d keeping contact between
East and West Germany. In the
Evangelical Church, there is an in
formal arrangement of partner
churches between the two sectors
and the churches exchange let
ters and occasionally change pul
pits, he added.
The other major area of interest
to Hoiberg was the program of
adult education carried on by the
churches. He explained that after
the war the Evangelical churches
began to set up adult education
centers as residential schools or
academies.
"That the world once again will
see a strong Germany is already,
ten years after the war, an ines
capable conclusion."
