additional training.
Clson said the high school stud

to participate in two sessions of in
formal discussion on the following
questions: "What should be the
goals of an educational policy de
signed to increase educational op
portunity beyond high school?",
"What problems do we face in at
tempting to increase educational
opportunities beyond high school?",
and "What types of educational
policy might best increase educa

Judy Douthit, entrant in the con

Royal Horse Show, returned from
Kansas City Sunday night amazed
at "all the Southern accents down
there."
Miss Douthit was winner in the
p-eliminary contest at McCook.
Around 40 girls, winners in local
contests, took part in the queen
competition in Kr.nsas City. States
represented were Kansas, Okla
homa, Texas, Missouri, Arkansas,
Iowa, and Nebraska.
"It was the first time that I
had seen big horse show," Miss
Douthit said. The American Royal
Livestock and Horse Show is the
largest show of its kind in the
world. Persons from all over the
Uiif.ed States go there to show
tlieir horses, she added.

Teachers College and a member of
Delta Delta Delta.
Leaving on Wednesday for Kan
sas City, Miss Douthit spent five

trip. Wednesday eve
ning the formal judging took place.
The girls wore foimals and walked
in front of a backdrop decoration of
a gilded horse's head, symbolic of
the American Royal Show. Num
bered arm oands were the only
identification of the candidates in
the contest, Miss Douthit said.
"I liked the parade on Saturday
th?. best," she commented. Deco
rated floats, 26 bands and over ,-
000 riders took part in the parade.
The 26-man Treasure Island Navy
drill team was an interesting part
01 the parade, she added. There
was also a United Nations anni
versary float with GO children
dressed in costumes of member
nations.
"The horse show was spectacu
lar. The jumpers and hunters di
vision impressed me the most; I
had never seen anything of the
type," Miss Douthit said. "I can
ride but I don't consider myself
an accomplished horse woman,"
she added.
Debbie Reynolds and Eddie Fish
er were guests' at the Cornation
Ball which was held on Friday.
The queen and the two princesses
reigned at the dance.

No Hours:
Colorado
Approves
Proposal
INTERCOLLEGIATE PRESS
BULLETIN Boulder, Colo. Sen
ior women at the University of
Colorado will be free to stay out
a late as they wish this year,
according to an announcement by
Dean of Women Mary-Ethel Ball.
The proposal has been approved
by the Board of Regents, the Uni
versity Executive Committee and
President Ward Darley.
Under the plan, door keys will
be given to each senior, the cost
being absorbed by a key deposit.
Seniors would be required to sign
out of their residence when they in
tend to be out beyond the regu
lar closing hours, or overnight.
Falsification of information on
signout slips or abuse of the key
privilege would be subject to se
vere penalty. Persons supervising
the program would reserve the
right to check signout information
at any time.
The dean's office believes sen
ior girls are mature enough to be
trusted with the new privilege. It
war pointed out that the plan wm
be evaluated each year and that
the Associated Women Students
organization is free to revoke it
each year.
"By the time a woman is within
30 hours of graduation she is cap
able of accepting the responsibility
of no hours, and such responsi
bility is good preparation for the
independent life after graduation,"
commented an AWS official.

Band Named
Year's Best In 19S0
Ralph Flanagan, who will play
fjr the Homecoming Dance Nov.
12, was classed as the top band of
the year in 1950, according to a
poll in the "Billboard" magazine.
This was just a few months after
the Flanagan band made its public
debut.
Flanagan didn't become interest
ed in music until he was 17, a year
afrer he graduated from high
school. Within a short time he was
working with small combos and
bands around his home town of Lo
rain, O.
On his twenty-first birthday,
Flanagan got a job as pianist-arranger
for Sammy Kaye and his
band. In 1942, he enlisted in the
United States Maritime Service.
While serving his four years, he ar
ranged for the service band.
On March 15, 1950, Flanagan and
his own band made its debut. Three
days later, on Saturday night, the
state police were enlisted to help
close the doors of the capacity
filled ballroom. Soon after, Flana
gan was signed for the "ABC s of
Music" radio series.
By 1951, Flanagan was doing a
weekly ABC network show for U.S.
Army and U.S. Air Force Recruit
ing. He had worked a total of 574
out of a possible 594 days.
In his first year, he grossed a
half-million dollars, played "in per
son" to an estimated three million
pel sons, had 44 weeks of sponsored
commercial radio shows on the
CBS and ABC networks.
Flanagan first made the record
ing of George Gershwin's "An
American in Paris" in dance tempo
after receiving special permission
from Ira Gershwin.
Some of his other outstanding ar
rangements are "Joshua," "Gian
nina Mia," "Stars and Stripes
Forever," "Nevertheless," "Sing
ing Winds," "Slow Drive" and
"The Winky Dink."
Tickets for the dance will be $3
a couple. They will go on sale the
last week of October.
NU Coed
Wears Grid
Paraphenalia
Football pants, shoulder pads,
headgear, sweatshirt and spiked
shoes may seem normal enough
for grid stars, but it presents a
rather unique outfit for one Uni
versity coed.
Stephanie Sherdeman, Arts and
Science sophomore, will be appear
ing in just such garb for her title
rde in the Lincoln Community
Playhouse production of "Time Out
Fi Ginger."
Miss Sherdeman's role, that of
a girl who reports out for the" foot
ball squad, calls for a good deal
of hip-swivelling action football
style of course.
Miss Sherdeman, whose home is
California, is the daughter of Ted
Sherdeman, Hollywood screen
writer whose "The McConnell
Story" recently played in Lincoln.
She chose the University because
her father also attended the Uni
versity. Another leading role in the Play
h.nce nnpnpr will he nlflved hv
'Mrs. Jeanne Quate, wife of Ento
I mology Professor Larry Quate.
