Latest available information is
that the Mallard Club is going
ahead with plans for their dance
Friday at Kings Ballroom, and
that most sororities are either or
dering or advising strongly that
their members not attend.
Helen Snyder, Assistant Dean
for Women and Frank Hallgren,
Associate Dean for Men, held meet
ings with sorority and fraternity
house presidents presenting the
situation to them and advising
them to stand by the rules.
They told The Nebraskan that
efforts to enforce the ruling set
forth in a letter sent to all houses
would have to come through the
individual houses themselves.
The letter stated in part: "The
holding of such a party is in viola

Science:
Noyes Says
U.S.Position
In Peril
Dr. Albert Noyes, Jr., dean of
the Graduate College at Rochester
University, Friday evening calle!
the situation of science on Amer
ica's broad diplomatic front dis
couraging and he saw no real sign
of improvement ahead.
"This country can either take
the lead in placing science and
technology in their proper places
in the international framework, or
we can wait for other countries to
lead the way."
Dr. Noyes said that from his ob
servation of the cordiality shown to
Soviet scientists at European meet
ings, the U.S. "runs a real risk of
losing an important battle in the
cold war if we do not wake up."
He pointed out that world-wide
problems exist pertaining to sci
ence "which demand sLatesmun
hip of the firKt order. They can
only be solved by persons with a
broad knowledge of peoples, of
economics and of the social sci
ences." He admitted that because of their
Interests in other things, scientists
and engineers do not have this
. broad knowledge.

Miss Osburn, regarding the per-
manency of the YW's remaining
on campus, Dean Colbert said the
YW would be housed in Rosa
Bouton as long as they desired or
as long as the building remained
in usable condition.
Selleck and Chancellor Hardin
agreed that this decision had been
made by the University administra
tion. YW advisory members and
student officers said this was high
ly satisfactory to them because
Rosa Bouton is conveniently- lo
cated in the middle of the women's
housing area. Panhellenic, Coed
Counselors and AWS offices will
continue to be housed in Rosa
Bouton according to university of
ficials. Miss Osburn explained that
membership in the YW has always
been open to all University coeds
of the various, faiths. She pointed
out that coeds of these various
faiths have been members of the
YW Cabinet.
This seemed to erase some of the
previous misunderstandings held
by the administration about the
alleged "exclusive membership"
of the YW. "The burden of proof
seems to lie in the other direction,"
Dean Breckenridge said.

an organization not approved by
the University and it is to be held
without conformity to the usual
social rules."
"Under these circumstances the
support of this event by the fratern
ity and sorority system of individ
ual houses is an indication of bad
faith ... We urge you to remind
your members of their responsibil
ity to conform to University regu
lations lest they forfeit their right
to Temain acceptable members of
the University community."
In view of this, most sororities
expressed the consensus, "We can't
afford to let anything happen, so
we are strongly advising mem
bers not to "attend,"

that not all members agreed with

Elhey, Young Speak
M Breakfast Session
By ARLENE HRBEK
Nebraskan Staff Writer
Operating on the assumption that
college students dont have all the
answers to their questions concern
ing existence, the second day of
Religious Emphasis Week was
filled with seminars to .discuss
moral and spiritual values and re
ligious concepts.
At a breakfast session Tuesday
morning Dr. W. Clark Kllzey and
Dr. Herrick Young spoke on two
of the important areas of religion
is everyday living.
"Marriage and parenthood are
the two most important things in
life if you judge by the product.
They are probably the two things
people enter into with less prepara
tion that any other profession, job
or project they may undertake,"
Ellzey said.
Young pointed out, "In this tech
nological age ideas without ideals
are dangerous. Religion should be
a balancing factor in progress."
He illustrated this fact with per
sonal experiences he gained abroad
'ast summer.
"Students all over the world are
searchins to find a stabilizing ele
ment," he added.
Speaking at a Monday afternoon
seminar on love and marriage
(courtship) Ellzey, minister in the

the ruling but that they expected
all members would go along with
it.
Most presidents stated that there
were not many women in the house
who had been planning to go and
that many of these were over 21.
Tickets to the Mallard Ball,
sponsored by an anonymous group
of fraternity men, were distribu
ted to each house through selected
fraternity representatives. A Mal
lard Club spokesman disclosed
Monday that pre-sale profits total
$150.
Activities
To Include
3 Divisions
Additional plans featuring facul
ty activities for the Spring Event
were announced by Don Beck,
chairman of the Spring Even( com
mittee. The event activities will be di
vided into three categories: men's
division, women's division and fac
ulty division, Beck said.
The faculty members will par
ticipate in the contests as repre
sentatives from the various col
leges. Beck said that plans are be
ing formulated for a golf and bowl
ing tournament for the faculty.
Beck emphasized that fraterni
ties, sororities; independent houses
and any other groups that wish
to participate in the contests may
do so. There will be both indi
vidual and team contests and all
points will count toward an over
all team score.
Ribbons will be awarded to in
dividual winners and will also be
given to the top team in each of the
three divisions, Beck said.
These activities will follow the
Barbecue sponsored by Ag Exec
Board and will precede the enter
tainment sponsored by the Union.
Ceres Club Offers
Award To Women
Ceres Club of the College of
Agriculture, is offering a $50
scholarship for "meritorius effort
in school life as well as scholastic
attainments."
Any woman registered in Ag
College who will have sufficient
hours to graduate in June 1957 or
at the end of summer schooj may
apply.

Essay Contest
An essay contest for students
from Asia attending rchool in the
United States and Canada will be
conducted this year, as it has
for the past three, by The Asian
Student Newspaper. The topic as
signed is, "Change' vs. Tradition
in Asia; Is Compromise Possible?"
Co
CIS
Tuesday, March 6, 1956
Methodisl Church and professor at
Stephens College, Mo., said "Love
should not be confused with really
knowing the other person."
Answering the question "How
long should a courtship be?" Dr.
Ellzey replied the "question should
be asked not how long should a
courtship be, but how well does
the couple know each other?"
"Campus courtship is not enough
for a total courtship; the couple
should see each other away from
campus and meet each other's par
ents and share each other's
homes," he said.
Religion and personal counsel
ing was the topic of the seminar
conducted by Rabbi Sidney Brooks,
Temple Israel Synagogue of Oma
ha. "Religion," he aid," cannot be
explained materialistically; "Some
one great does something very
wrong; it only helps to point out
even the greatest have sinned."
The controversial question of
Science and Religion was discussed
by Dr. Ermerson Shuck and Rabbi
Brooks. They pointed out the
question facing citizens is not sci
ence versus religion with the two
phases of culture at opposite poles,
because science and religion are
compatible.
"It is unfortunate,' said Rabbi
Brooks," that we have a stereotype
of science versus religion, and with
the stereotype the implication that
a choice must be made between
the two." A scientific mind and a
religious mind are both the same,
he observed, in the "sense they
both follow the truth."

According to a responsible informant, official British thinking has

commander of the Legion.
Court Overrules Ben
A decision by a special three-judge U. S. District court in North
Carolina upheld a decision that the ban on racial segregation in public
schools applies also to tax-supported colleges and universities.
The court, in ordering three

segregation cases that "in the field of public education, the doctrine of
separate but equal has no place."
