i Poga 2 THE NEBRASKAN Friday, December 14, 1956 Ncbraskan Editorials: Mitchell's Decision The news that Dr. C. Clyde Mitchell wil prob ably not return to the University campus is rather disheartening to most persons interested In bis case, The Nebraskan has taken the view, this se mester, that it could do nothing more for Dr. Mitchell than report on the activities of the Faculty Senate committee on academic tenure and privilege and bring to light any substantial evidence whiflb was produced by Dr. Mitchell or by members of the faculty. . Wt realize that most faculty members would be rather hesistant about making any statement that would place them in a situation which would endanger their professional career, but we must also realize that If any faculty member were to take such a step, he would be more likely to do so If he believed that Dr. Mitchell were Interested enough to appear before the in vestigating committee. It Is impossible to know the minds of that mall group of faculty members who believe In the validity of Clyde Mitchell's accusations and who have some accusations of their own. This group most surely exists. There can be no doubt as to their integrity and Tery little question of their loyalty to the Uni versityor what they believe the University should be. Perhaps they feel that Mitchell's case will be strengthened if the agricultural economist does not appear before tho committee. Dr. Mitchell is not known to be the most tactful individual and perhaps he will look better on paper than he would in person. However, for the many persons who do not know the answer those friends who are Inter ested mainly in extinguishing the dark cloud that hovers over the institution Mitchell's re fusal to return to the campus means mostly that the case will be prolonged and the committee will be denied access to its chief witness. This act does, not mean, necessarily, that the commit tee will be " influenced negatively, but it does mean that the commitee will operate under a se vere handicap. It is almost impossible to find a precedent of an investigation of any sort requested by a person who was unable to appear before the investigating body. Whatever the outcome of Clyde Mitchell's case, The Nebraskan will honor the committee's decision. It is difficult to see, however, how the investigation will be aided by Dr. Mitchell's ab- scence from the hearings. Second Chance There's always an added spark to the "sec ond chance." When Junior says he'll be good, if only "you don't tell Santa," Junior will be good. And so the Kosmet Klub, given a second chance, will show the campus just how good It is tonight. After the annual fall review was banned last year by the Committee on Student Affairs, be cause of bad taste on the part of the master of ceremonies, action was taken to reinstate the traditional show by Kosmet Klub members. The appeal was made last May 29. On June 4, the Committee said that the show could be produced with certain stipulations which were set down at the time. These were: 1. Kosmet Klub takes full responsibility for the production of an "acceptable and unobjec tionable Fall Revue," emphasizing talent in writing and production, as opposed "to slap stick comedy." 2. All persona appearing in the Fall Revue shall be students of the University, and shall meet the usual eligibility requirements. 3. The revue shall be made up of skits pre sented by organized men's living units. An ac tive undergraduate member of Kosmet Klub will serve as announcer of skits and curtain acts, 4. A script of each skit and curtain act shall be submitted to the Kosmet Klub before any tryouts are held. 6. All organizations and individuals taking part in the revue will follow the approved script exactly and shall be responsible for any devia tion from the script. 6. Kosmet Klub shall be responsible to the Dean of Student Affairs for supervising the pro duction of the Fall Revue in such a manner that the above provisions are strictly carried out. The University community is looking forward to a fine show from the Kosmet Klub. As in the past, each men's house which desired to do so, tried out and a selection committee chose those acts which they believed would be the most entertaining. Selection is the keynote of the revamped pro gram. The KK has picked both the acts, the tim nnd the announcer. They are responsible for the selections. But the finer scrutiny exer cised this year in these choices will, we nope, show up in a finer quality snow. Hrnnned from the bill. A high quality of humor and enterntainment has replaced it, if the Klub has followed aaminiswa- inn rptrnlntions. Overall this means that the show will be more entertaining to every element, young or old, at- tpnriinff it. Now there is nothing left but the performance. The houses which "made it" are running through their paces for the last time. Their acts will have to be better than any before for the continuation of the Fall Revue is dependent on the oualitv of tonight's show. The Nebraskan hopes that the Fall Revue will stay in step with the ideas set down by the stu dent Affairs Committee. Finally, may we say that with the increase in pressure on KK performers that the student body realizes the expanded effort needed to pro duce a top ranking show. May the best house win I if happened at nu A student, returning to his room at 11:45 one night last week, found a note on his desk. "Dick," it said, "call 2-6050 and ask for Cliff." Immediately the student went to the phone and dialed the number. The conversation went some thing like this. "Is this Cliff?" "Yes," was the reply. "Say, this is Dick, and I was sup posed to call you. What'd ja want?" "I didn't want anything. This must be some kind of Drank!" "Oh. I'm sorry, did I get you out of bed?" Dick asked. "Yes, but that's all right." "Well I'm sorry, Good-bye." A few minutes later Dick found out that 2-6050 was the phone number of none other than Chancellor Clifford Hardin.

Jerry SidleaUna JTTLE MAN on campus by Dick Bibler r i wmm I n I ' in in. ml m m iiv IT'S YOUK TIME TO WIND TOE ALARMS TDNiTE." 'round the prickly wl Dear MT Dick Becker, sports editor of the Lincoln Journal formerly of Bobb sey Twins fame, has precipitated a red-hot argument among local sportswriters (which eliminates Walt Blore) on the "diminution" of Cornhusker athletic spirit. Mixing irrelevant statistics, inac curacies and strained observations with amiable versatility, the oafish scribe proves once again that he is Bruce Brugmann the exponent of true Husker spirit, as he did in the fall of 1954 and 1955 when he pressed one of the more mercilessly vindicative cam paigns against Head Coach Bill Glassford. I think it is fair to say, Dick, that the students supported this year's fourth place Husker football team (who proved themselves a surprisingly good outfit) much more than you supported the sec ond place teams of 1954 and 1955. However, leaving my crusading successor as he stokes the ebbing flames of Cornhuskerland, detach ing elevators from local hotels and removing fence gates from slug gish sororities, it might be well to lend The Nebraskan a helping hand as it struggles with its first issue of the semester. Might I suggest that the editor, as he courageously defies those who are subverting campus de mocracy, extend his philosophy to the logical conclusion of opening the meetings of Innocents and Mo tar Boards. (Perhaps I could get in that way.) Or, for a more comic effect than it has yet achieved, The Nebraskan could run a report of the IFC's Three Stooges (Ellis, Schuyler and Belmont) as they huddle about a pot of tea in the Ellen Smith bal cony suite. But then, I'd better be careful, or my following (Marvin Breslow, who has never been much of leader, and Stan Shiebert) may de sert me before I can wrest Fred Daly and Sam Jensen from prom inence in the Dirty Old Man Contest.

At one point he challenged them with the words: "You've got to get on the cam pus and give 'em ..." he paused for effect . . . "Heaven!" And these from the editor's column in the University of To ledo's Campus Collegian: Two men were discussing the vexed question of the education of their children. Said one: . "What's your boy going to ba when he finishes his education?" Replied the other: "An octogena rian, I think." a a Him "I hope you'll dance with m tonight." Her "Oh, certainly, I hope you don't think I came down here merely for pleasure." ROTC Student "I haven't a pencil or paper for the Exam." Sergeant: "What would you think of a soldier who went into battle without a gun?" ROTC Student: "I'd think he waa an officer." You Are Invited To Worthtp ST.
