Donald Pace:
University Researchers
Probe Cancerous Growth
By CAROLE FRANK
Copy Editor
One of the more important re
search projects being conducted
at Nebraska is the cancer research
project. Dr. Donald Pace, head of
the physiology department, and his
assistants are working on.
Dr. Pace, in an. interview with
the Daily Nebraskan, said he got
his first opportunity to actually ex
periment with cell growth as a
graduate student at Duke Univer
sity. It was not until after Dr. Pace
came to the University in 1942 that
he set up the special research pro
ject. "At the beginning," Dr. Pace
said, "we at the University didn't
begin our project as a special re
search institute." One of the main
things the men were searching for
was the basic reactions in cell
growth, whether the cell is nor
mal of abnormal. They worked
with protozoan cells to study the
tissue count and growth.
Money for the Institute has come
from three principal sources:
The Cooper Foundation, U.S. Pub
lic Health Service and the Anna
Glock Cancer Fund. Establish
ment of the Institute was an
nounced early in 1952 following
receipt of a $20,000 gift made by
the Cooper Foundation.
Since then, the Institute has re
ceived altogether about $50,000
in three years and is now settled
The role of Veta Louise Sim
mons will be played by Stephanie
Sherdeman who is making her
first appearance in a University
Theater production. Miss Sherde
man has been active in Univer
sity laboratory productions. The
original role of Vita Louise was
taken by Josephine Hull both in
the play and later in the movie.
Other members of the cast in
clude Dixie Lee Helms, Clare
Cooper, Pat Patterson, John Crow
ell, Keith Williams, James Baker,
Janet Boucher, Clancy Croft and
Eric Prewitt. Technical director of
the play will be Harry Steiber.
"Harvey" is about a .congenial
alcoholic named Elwood Dowd
whose companion is a six foot tall
pink rabbit named Harvey who is
invisible to everyone but Elwood.
Elwood lives with his sister, a
spinster named Veta Louise Sim
mons who finds Harvey an un
bearable guest.
While on Broadway "Harvey"
enjoyed the sixth longest run in
history and won a Pulitzer Prize
as the best comedy production and
American author in 1944.
In 1950, the play was made into
a movie starring James Stewart
and Josephine Hull who won an
Academy Award for her perform
ance.
Ag Seniors Coffee Hour
Dr. and Mrs. Franklin Eldridee
will preside at a coffee hour for
all graduation seniors in Ag Col
lege on Wednesday from 4 p.m.
to 5:30 p.m. in the northwest din

tion Building.

in a new laboratory home in the
basement of the remodeled Plant
Industry building on the College
of Agriculture campus.
Then at that same time the Na
tional Cancer Institute was able
to isolate a single cancerous cell
and grow it outside the body. Later
this same cell lost its malignancy
over a period of years. This was
the beginning of several pure
strains of cells the research men
have here at Nebraska.
The research scientists use hu
mans, mice, pure liver and skin
cells to study the cells as they
grow, the changes in growth and
metabolism and the cell structure
Over a year and a half ago, the
United States Public Health Serv-
ice asked the University to conduct
a research on the effects of air pol
iution on tissue cells. Air pollution
consists of smoke, automobile ex
hausts, etc.
At that same time the Univer
sity received a grant from the
Cornhuskers
The 1957 Cornhuskers will be
available Wednesday through Fri

1958 Cornhusker business mana
ger. Students must bring their
identification card and their
Cornhusker receipt with them in
order to obtain the books, Miss
Hall stressed.
Tobacco Research Industry of $8,'
000 to find out if tobacco had any
effects on lung tissue. Dr. Pace
stated, "we found out in our re
search that there definitely is an ef
fect on the lung tissue. Tobacco
and air pollution together will
eventually bring about cancer.
Sources prove there has been an
increase in the number of males
who smoke and who also contract
cancer in the past 15 years. Be
tween 1940-50 there was a 133 per
cent increase of cancer in males
who smoke. "I believe males have
been more susceptible to cancer
because they have been smoking
much longer than females and that
is why there aren't as many cases
of cancer in females," said Dr.
Pace.
The director of the research in
Ftitute works with eight full time
members of the staff, two full
time post doctoral fellows and sev
eral graduate students with two
of them holding $2,000 Cooper Fel
lowships. These people who play huge
part, in the research project are
Dr. H. G. Hoick, research asso
ciate and consultant of Pharmol
ogy and Toxicology; Walter Ar
thur, research associate and physi
ologist; Dr. Richard Dean, James
Thompson and William Van Camp,
all National Cancer Institute re
search fellows; Byron Aftonomos,
research chemist; Mrs. Louise
Simmons and Miss Ann Reynolds,
technicians and Arlan Sherwood,
lab assistant.
Holding the degrees of bachelor
of arts received at Susquehanna
University, Pennsylvania and his
Masters of Science and PhD de
grees at Duke University, Dr.
Pace teaches Public and Personal
Health, Physiology, Anatomy and
Tissue Culture at the University.
Public Relations
Certificates were awarded to
social personnel on completion of
a public relations course con
ducted by University staff and pro
fessional persons in public relations.

ewesise Proposed
A $2,500 per year pay boost for

The increase is among those in

This would put the chancellor's
pay at $20,000 per year, plus his

Carpenter said the chancellor

that this would be $20,000 under the
new budget. Together with the

said.

said.
All worksheets must have the
adviser's signature. Except for
Teacher's College, students carry

12 to 17 hours must also have the
signature of the Dean of their col

Mrs. Laase said.

The rules of registration accord
ing to Mrs. Laase are: A student
may not schedule more than three-
fifths of his classes on Monday,

es at the popular hours on Monday,
Wednesday and Friday mornings,
Mrs. Laase said.

spring, or not completing then-
registration, may do so in the fall

residence, Carpenter said, tha
chancellor's pay would be about
$25,000.
The Scottsbluff senator did not
attack the salary. He used it as
an illustration in citing the need
for "dignifying" the office of at
torney general by paying $10,500
per year.
The increases for present staff
members at the University total
$2.4 million for the 1957-59 period.
This amount was recommended by
Gov. Victor Anderson and also tha
Legislature's budget committee.
So far this session, the legis
lature has gone along with pay
boosts for most state officials.
