NEBRASKA Wednesday, April 24, 1957 Honors Convocation: Urges OF IrQCSCQ Val Peterson, former three-time governor of Nebraska and present federal civil defense administrator warned Tuesday morning that we face a "grotesque world." "The world before us win fall down around us unless we put more effort into buuding peace rather than war machinery." Peterson addressed more than 1,500 students, faculty members that of the research supported by the federal government, 87 per cent of the money is spent in the physical sciences; 11 per cent in the biological sciences; and only two per cent in the social sciences.
