Open Meeting:
A Student Council open meeting
will be held Thursday, in the Un
ion, at 4 p.m. The Student Activi
ties Committee of the Council will
present a plan for a student tri
bunal, according to Marv Bres
low, chairman of the committee.
Breslow urges all students in
terested in the possibility of a
student tribunal to attend the
open meeting to learn about the
Council's ideas and to submit
their own opinions on the need for
such tribunal. "The University
can have a student tribunal only if
enough of the students want it,"
Breslow stated.
Members of the Student Activi
ties Committee will preside at the
Thursday meeting. They include
Breslow, Sue Hinkle, Bev Deepe,
Norma Wolfe, Bob Schuyler, Dave

this means all high school, stu
dents will want to complete at
least one year of high school al
gebra before they enroll in the
College.
Students who have had a high
school chemistry course " will be
allowed to take two 3-hour courses
in chemisty rather than the two
5-hour courses required of all stu
dents in taking chemistry in high
school so they will have time for
more elective courses in college.
Although more science, social
studies, humanities and mathe
matics courses will be required
in the future, the curriculum for
both general agriculture and tech
nical science students will be ear
ly as flexible as it has been in
the past, Dr. Eldridge says.
He explains that the revisions
are in keeping with the trend to
offer students a broad, general
education, and yet allow them
to take many courses in their chos
en field.

The
Inside World
Texan s Protest
(ACP) Students at the Univer
sity of Texas ran into some
trouble recently because of a pe
tition that was circulated in con
nection with the Hungarian situ
ation. The petition advocated the
withdrawal of the United States
from the Olympic games in Aus
tralia as a means of protesting
Russia's barbaric and unjustifi
able intervention in Hungary.
The same group of students
circulated a second petition ad
vocating that the United States
government allow American citi
zens to join a military force as
volunteers to aid the Hungarian
rebellion.
The trouble developed when the
Dean of Student Life intervened.
He objected to the petitions not
necessarily because of the con
tents, but because the students
had failed to get University per
mission before beginning circula
tion. The petitions were with
drawn following the Dean's objection.

Life in P
fan
aids
By DON HERMAN
Ag Editor
Two months in Pakistan have
revealed much of life in that coun
try to Bob Rathjen, Ag College
Junior.
As a Nebraska International
Farm Youth Exchange delegate
(IFYE), Rathjen is observing rur
al life in East and West Pakistan.
IFYE is a project designed to
further understanding between
American young people and farm
families in other countries. Spon
sors in Nebraska are Nathan Gold,
Lincoln businessman and the state
rural youth organization.
In a letter to John Orr, Uni
versity of Nebraska assistant state
leader of 4-H and Young Men
and Women 4YMW), Rathjen said
there were extreme geographic
differences between the two halves
of Pakistan, which are divided
geographically by India but re
ligiously united.
Rathjen said that West Pakistan,
which is more than three times
as large as East Pakistan, is dry,
hot and mountainous. All agricul
ture depends upon its highly 'de
veloped irrigation system.
East Pakistan is wet, flat and
covered with jungle growth. Year
ly rainfall measures up to ' 400
inches.
Rathjen estimates that 80 to 85
per cent of th2 population are
farmers. They live with their fam
ilies in the villages rather than
on their farm land, scaring their
houses with the livestock.
The diet in West Pakistan con
sists of rice, beef, goat meat and

and out-of-state speakers, accord

head of the Department of Ani

gram for the women attending.

Taylor:
Curricula Determine
Quality Of Architecture
The quality of buildings in the
coming years will depend on the
humanistic concern of the de
signers, according to a leading
architect and educator.
Walter Taylor, director of the
Department of Education and Re
search of the American Institute
of Architects, made this statement
at the 20th annual meeting of the
Central States District of Collegi
ate Schools of Architecture held
Saturday at the University.
He said the guidance and leader
ship of the schools will determine
what is done hi providing shelter,
a basic need of man.
"Architecture," he said, "is the
bridge between the social and
physical sciences."
He explained that the sociologist
finds the needs of men while the
engineer develops the technical
resources. The architect then must
fulfill the needs, out of the re
sources of applied science.
The curriculum of architectural
schools of the future, Taylor said,
will include physiology, the be
havioral sciences, geography and
climatology.
"We must- know more about
human beings," he said.
Taylor explained that people live
in an artificial climate all the time
yet little is known about how they
react to this environment.
The schools, he said, must have
more efficient teaching of "tool"
courses in order to provide for
these added subject areas.
Approximately 40 persons regis
tered for the day-long meeting.
S c h o ol s represented included:
Kansas, Kansasa State, Oklahoma,
Oklahoma A & M, Iowa State,
Wyoming, Washington University
in St. Louis, Mo., and the University.

fried bread made of wheat flour
and sour milk. (Water buffalo pro
vide the main source of rjlk.)
The meat shortage necessitates
two meatless days a week in West
Pakistan.
East Pakistan's main sources of
food are rice and fish.
The language barrier is consid
erable in both East and West Pak
istan, not only due to the number
of languages spoken but the num
ber of dialects. The popular dia
lect In one area may be unin
telligible to Pakistanis in another
area 15 miles distant.
Social structure presents anoth
er interesting side of life in Pak
istan. The women are kept at home,
out of sight of the public. On their
rare ventures out of the home,
they wear long hoods which hang
to their knees, called "burkas."
Only a small opening to see
through is provided.
Respect for elders is strictly ob
served, Rathjen said. Heads must
be covered in the presence of el
ders; smoking is taboo in the
presence of an older member of
the family.
Rathjen is Impressed with the
hospitality in Pakistan. "The peo
ple have arguments over whom I
am going to stay with," Rathjen
said. "They are the most friendly
people I have ever seen."

A wild anti-Russian demonstration was reported from the big
Polish port city of Stettin (Szcsecin). Demonstrators marched on the
Soviet Consulate, smashed windows and tried to break in.
Communist authorities finally called in troops and "workers'
militia" club-wielding strongarm men to disperse the crowd.
Official reports blamed the outbursts on "drnuken hooligans." But
reliable sources in Stettin said it was the outcome of a planned dem
onstration by students and young factory workers against events in
