It Happened At NU
A journalism professor was explaining that
the fact that a paper may be right is not always
the only criterion to be considered.
He gave the example of Elijah Lovejoy who
wrote in favor of abolition and was killed for
his views.
"He was right," the professor concluded,
but, it was a cold comfort.'
LINCOLN, NEBRASKA'
5.7 Requirement Sustained
An effort in the Student Council
to rescind the 5.7 grade average
requirmement failed by a vote of
14-12 Wednesday.
The ruling, passed at the last
Council meeting, is still effective
immediately but is not retroactive.
It requires a 5.7 accumulated aver
age for executive board members
and a S.0 for board positions.
A resolution to encourage Komet
Klub in attempts to appeal the ban
of the Fall Revue failed by a voice
Vote.
"Student Council is not the
body to do this," Gail Katskee,
senior holdover member, said. She
said some Council members felt
that KK had been wrong.
Bruce Brugmann, Arts and Sci
ences, said the resolution would
have little effect outside of offer
ing encouragement to KK. "T h e
resolution does not say the Coun
cil feels one way or the other," he
aid.
Changes in the method of select
ing student members of the Fac
ulty-Student Subcommittee on Stu
dent Publications were accepted in
the form of a committee report.
The report was amended to read
that student members will be se
lected in the first few weeks of the
fall semester, instead of in the
spring as was originally suggested.
Marv Breslow, CCRC and jun
ior Pub Board member, said that
the original suggestion would elim
inae students who were not re
appointed to staffs as members.
Pub Board will consist of one
senior, one junior and one mem
ber from either the sophomore, jun
ior or senior classes under the
new system. Under the new ruling,
a Pub Board member may also be
a member of the Council.
Debate on the grade requirement
ran as follows.

Names of the six students who
have been readmitted to the
University after their suspension
for participation in the riot last
spring have been released by the
department of public relations.
The six are Terry Cochran,
Don Fritson, Charles G a r s t,
Richard Glasford, Lee Miller,
and Roger Wichman.
The students were suspended
from the University last spring
with the understanding that they
would not be admitted until June,
Q
1956, and that a statement that
the student "did not leave the
university in good standing"
would accompany any credit
transfers.
The recent action of readmis
sion was in accordance with a
statement issued by the Board of
Regents May 10, . 1955 which
stated that a student could be
readmitted on a probationary ba
sis by the Dean of Student Af
fairs "under such conditions as
he shall determine advisable."

Letters have been sent by Dean
Philip Colbert to parents of mem
bers of a fraternity pledge class
which skipped recently, it was an
nounced in Interfraternity Coun
cil, meeting Wednesday.
The letters were sent by the
Dean of Student Affairs regarding
the skipping of classes by the foot
loose pledges, Frank Haldgren, As
sociate Dean, said.
"There have been some unpleas
a n t situations resulting from
pledges sneaking and missing
classes," he said. The University
has gone on record saying that no
student can,, be excused from
classes to go on sneaks, Dean Hald
gren added.
"So long as pledge classes do
not miss recularlv scheduled
classes, the University has no par
ticular disapproval to sneaks." he
said.
In further IPC business, Dick
Trupp, treasurer, suggested t h e
formation of a pledge IFC to be
sponsored by the regular Interfra
ternity Council.
The idea was first formulated
In the IFC exec council, he said.
"It is a good idea to orient the
pledges and get them together,"
Trupp said. They would elect their
own officers and conduct their own
business, he added. A committee
from the IFC would sponsor the
pledge group, and all projects con
sidered would have to be passed
through the IFC.
Bill Campbell IFC president,
said the pledge group "could real
ly strengthen the IFC in future
year s." Al Barnett, Sigma Nu
president, said that the pledges, by
getting to know each other, could
help to strengthen the fraternity
system.
Bob Schuyler, Phi Gamma Del
ta, was appointed chairman of a
committee to work on the project.
The IFC approved the purchase
of Cooper Foundation Theater tic
kets to' help support the LARC
school for retarded children. The
tickets, good at any Cooper Foun
dation theater, will sell for 80
I c e n t s, the regular price. Fiftv
cents out of each ticket will go to
the theater and 30 cents to the
LARC school.
Tickets may be purchased by
members in their own houses, and
may be turned in for regular tic
kets at the theater box offices
Tickets will be good all year.
braska.
Both teams have been riddled
with injuries. Homer Jenkins, Col
orado's senior left halfback, is
slated to sit out the game here
'with a bad knee. Sylvester Harris,
Husker right halfback who con
tributed heavily to victories over
Missouri and Kansas, is probably
lost to the Huskers for the season
with a dislocated shoulder.
Harry Johnon, Nebraska jun
ior, can play either right or left
halfback as he did against Iowa
State. Lyle Martin, who has seen
limited service, Frank Nappi,
sophomore who has not been in
action, and Gene Sandage, sopho
more, are being readied to step
into Harris' spot.
The Huskers are second to Okla
homa in total offense, both rushing
and passing. Nebraska is the na
tion's third team in pass defense
and leads the conference in this
aspect. Husker opponents have
pitched 85 times and have com
pleted only 25 for 365 yards.
Don Strasheim, who scouted Col
orado in their 37-7 romp over a
stout Utah team, tabbed the Buffs
as a "better team than a year
ago." This, despite the loss, of
Frank Bernardi and Carroll Har
dy, who have both made good as
rookies in professional football this
fall.
