Dec. 16 Program:
nnual Messiah Production
lated Dec. 76, In Coliseum
On December 16th in the Colise
um, over 600 University students
t will take part in the forty-second
annual presentation " of Handles'
Messiah. Soloists of this year's
hour-and-a-half production will be
Shirley Halligan, Soprano; Phylis
Malory, Alto; Richard Voth, Tenor
and Robert Vitols, Bass.
The Presentation of the Messiah
by the University of Nebraska has
become a tradition that could no
more be dispensed with than could
the football team. It has become
an event that has religious signifi
cance for literally hundreds of
church groups in the Lincoln area.
Each year the crowds attending
keep swelling and this year it is
estimated that approximately 8,000
will come.
Moreover, the influence of the
Messiah is spread outstate by Uni
versity graduates. Omaha, Seward,
Albion, Central City, and Scotts
bluff are all presenting "The Mes
siah" this year which will have
been directly influenced by t h e
University's original production.
Professor David Foltz, Chair
man of the Department of Music
who will direct the Messiah this
year, defines the production as an
oratorio. This means that it is a
narative set to music. The original
Messiah was written in the in
credibly short time of 24 days by
its composer George Frederick
Handel, at the order of the king
ot England.
The King was advised by his
clergymen not to allow the Dresen
tation.of the oratoria. which has
since become one of the most wide
ly presented compositions in his
tory. Therefore, the first time it
was heard was in Dublin, Ireland,
in 1741.
Tradition says, however, that
tne king, George II, ordered a
private performance in spite of the
objerctions of his clergy. The king
was so moved by the production
that during the singing of the
Hallelujah Chorus, which con
cludes the performance, he rose
to his feet, thus establishing a
tradition which survives to this
day.
In spite of this, it was 1750 be
fore officials allowed the Messiah
to be performed in London. After
that however, the presentation of
the piece at Christmas and Easter
became one of England's most re
vered traditions.
Today the Messiah is presented
al! over the world at two major
holy festivals of the year, Christ
mas and Easter. It tells the story
of the birth, death and resurrec
tion getting the most emphasis de
pending on the season of the year.
Many cities in America are fa
mous for their presentations of the
work. Chicago presents one of the
best and New York has over fifty
presented in the course of a year;
but surprisingly the presentation
which is annually ranked the high
est is the one in little Lindberg,
Kansas. Some of the biggest
names in the field of concert mu
sic have performed here.
Foltz, who has seen most of the
major productions in the United
States, contends that the Univer
sity's presentation is comparable
to any of the best. Foltz has said
that "Seeing the Messiah present
ed anywhere is one of the most
moving religious and musical ex
periences that our lives can have.

harmony with those of their insti
tutions. Third, a careful selection
of Interfraternity officers must be
made and the out-going council
should spend as much time as pos
sible with the new officers.
The theme of the convention,
held from Nov. 28-30, was "The
Responsibilities of the Interfrater
nity Councils."
The convention was divided into
two sections. The National Grad
uate Conference began Thursday,
Nov. 29 and the National Under
graduate met for the first time on
Nov. 30.
The program began with the in
troduction of five outline papers
by outstanding Interfraternity lead
ers which pointed up the five ma
jor -areas of Interfraternity Coun
cil responsibilities.
Each of the five areas were cov
ered in panel discussions. They in
cluded Scholarship, University
Service, Social activities Commun
ity and Fraternity Service.
Delegates were divided into
three panel groups according to
the number of fraternities on then-
campuses.
Each of the discussions were led
by outstanding men from various
parts of the country, Schuyler said.

out,
This accounts largely for the
fact journalism school enrollments

said.

leaving college that they can reach
the $350 average salary by by
passing newspapers and going di'
rectly into agricultural and indus
tr ial Journalism or into public re
lations.
"Faced with this competition,"
Nebraska newspapers must revise
their wage scales for beginners
sharply upwards or settle for the
bottom third of each year's
graduation class," Dr. Hall told
AP managing editors.
Dr. Hall suggested daily news
papers in Nebraska follow the lead
oi the Cincinnati Times-Star which
has provided in its latest contract
that graduates of accredited jour
nalism schools start at the third-
year scale of $70 a week.
Suggested, also, by Dr. .Hall,
vas the promotion and backing of
scholarship by local newspapers
As a benefactor of local youth,
continued Dr. Hall, the sponsoring
newspaper gains public approval
from its readers for this service
to ttie community and brings jour
nalism into the public eye; and
will promote good public relations
for the newspaper.
Furthering the second -point of
his talk, Dr. Hall, went on to say
that, "Too many of us today fail
to recognize the fact that the high
school campus is where we win or
lose future journalists.
Unless we enter the recruiting
battle at this point of initial career
contact, our losses in terms of top
flight graduates will continue to
mount."
"In making such recommends
tions," Dr. Hall concluded, "I rec
ognize an equal responsibility on
our part to produce graduates who
can and will measure up to rigid
professional standards."
