Counseling Affords Self-Understanding
The University Counseling Serv
ice is dedicated to the idea that
college years should be satisfying,
productive, rewarding years. Coun
seling services are designed to help
normal college students grow in
eelf-understanding so that they may
use their assets effectively and plan
attainable goals for the future."
So says Dr. Clay Gerken, newly
appointed head of the University
Counseling Service.
Dr. Gerken, who comes to the
University from the University of
Iowa, succeeded Dr. Wesley
Poe. He will have under his direc
tion a staff of seven, including
three fnll time and four part-time
assistants.
His staff includes Miss Margaret
Dolezal, secretary and reception
ist, two full-time counselors, Dar
rel Anderson and Mrs. Lois Olive,
plus four part-time counselors, Mrs.
Carol Stephens, Miss Olive Car
ino, Leon Rottmann and Gene Os
trom. Both Rottman, who had
charge of New Student Week, and
Ostrom are advanced graduate
students working toward their Die
tor's degree.
Dr. Gerken pointed out that the
Counseling Service does not ad
minister advice, but it's purpose
is to "encourage students to under
stand themselves and their needs."
"A professionally trained staff,
counseling interviews, aptitude
and achievement and interest tests,

Mrs. Don Raymond. The shot
was part of the first shipment of
the flu vaccine which arrived
on the campus late in August.
Asiatic Flu Vaccine Made
Available For NU Use
Limited quantities of Asiatic flu
Vaccine have arrived on the Uni
versity campus and distribution of
the drug will begin immediately,
according to Dr. Sammuel Fuen
ning, director of the University
Health Service.
"Because we have only limited
quantities of the serum and large
quantities will not be available for
at least another month, we will
have to use a pattern of innocula-H
tion in certain key areas to fore
stall a. widespread epidemic,"
Fuenning said.
"Those individuals in organized
houses who will be responsible for
caring for those who might pos
sibly become sick will have to be
innoculated first," Fuenning said.
He also announced a schedule
for innoculation which includes of
ficers and health chairmen of
fraternities and sororities tonight;
officers and health chairmen of
the houses in the men's residence
halls on Wednesday, and, tenta
tively, officers and health chair
men of the women's residence
hajls on Thursday. Involved per
sonnel will be contacted today
about when to appear for the
shots, Fuenning said.
"I want to emphasize that vac
cine will be made available to all
as soon as there is "an adequate
supply," Fuenning said.
Meanwhile, at least one Lincoln
drug firm reported Monday that
availability of tha Asian flu vac
cine will be poor for the next 30
days.
Leon Donley, a partner in the
Donley Medical Supily- Co. Ltd.,
said a maximum of 10,000 shots
of the scarce vaccine will be avail
able to Lincoln by Oct. 1. It is not
known what percentage of this
number will be available for Uni
versity use. However, Dr. Fuen
ning reported that University sup
plies have come only in dribbles
up to now.
Asiatic flu is a new type A virus
form that originated in southern
Chnia. The disease spreads with
great speed and United States
health officials have cautioned na
tional health services that ' the
North American continent is al
ready seeded with the virus.
The disease has so far assumed
only a mild form, lasting from 2-5
days and causing its victims only
mild discomfort. However, officials
feat that if allowed to run un
checked, the disease could devel
op virulen c h a,,r a c t e r i s t i cs,
Dr. Fuenning said. Also, be
cause the disease weakens Its vic
tim's resistance, the after-effect
are sometimes serious, Fuenning
said.
The first batch of the serum to
arrive on the campus, about 500
shots to be distrubuted between
the University and Wesleyan, were
given to the NU football squad.
"Some people thought we were
showing favoritism," Dr. Fuenning
said, "but the truth was nobody
was here but the football players
at the time." Neither rush week
or Nsw Student Week had begun
and the only ones to give it to
were the footballers."
"Becauss of plans to treat Asian
flu cases in hemes, and since stu
dents have no place to go but their
darmitories, the University is high
on the list for vaccine priority,"
Dr. Fuenning concluded.
oping efficient study methods, a
complete library of information
about hundreds of occupational
fields, and many other features
are available to students," ac
cording to Dr. Gerken.
The Counseling Service, which is
administratively responsible to
Dr. Lee Chatfield, the head of the
Junior Division and the University
Counseling Service is located in
Temporary "A Buildjng across
from Love Memorial Library. They
will soon have offices in the new
administration building, now in
the process of being built.
Students may ma ke appoint
ments with the Counseling Service
by phoning Extension 3118 or by
a personal visit to the office.
Ag Judging Team
Cops Second Place
The University livestock judging
team won second place at the Na
tional Barrow Show in Austin,
Minn., last week.
Darrel Eberspacher was second
in the individual competition with
539 points. Paul Youtier scored 532
points.
Team members include: Art
Armbrust, Dennis Sedlak, Larry
Engler, Allan McClure, Eberspach
er and Yeutter.
A team from Iowa StateCollege
won first place honors and the
University of Minnesota took third.
A University criminologist has i kind of group action opportuni-
suggested that communities devise
means of providing volunteer spon
sors where possible for discharged
prisoners and parolees who are
reformable.
In a summer issue of the maga
zine "Federal Probation," Dr.
James Reinhardt said, "A few
good conscientious citizens upheld
by the community can save not
only a parole system, but the pa
rolees as well."
These sponsors, he said, give
the released prisoner a sense of
belonging.
Dr. Reinhardt stressed that he
was talking about the released
prisoner capable of . responding.
"A community is obligated to pro
tect itself from the dangers of in
dividuals who persist in defying
every community effort, but it is
indeed a waste of human energy
and community strength to allow
former inmates who desire to live
lawabiding lives to return to pris
on again and again."
The question "What should a re
leased prisoner have a right to ex
pect of a community," was asked
of 100 inmates selected at random
from the Nebraska State Prison.
A substantial majority gave the
following answers: "Left alone,"
"not bothered 'about past life,"
"not treated like a criminal,"
"given the same chances as every
one else," and "home and love."
A considerable number stated
that the "chief obstacle to going
straight was t he multiplicity of
rules imposed on the released prisoner."
The prisoners main criticism of;
community agents were: "Crowd- j
ing religion down your throat,"
"always putting up a front," "play
ing to the community big shots,''
and "lack of true interest."
Dr. Reinhardt said the inmates
"expressed a keen interest in some
ties to talk things out with other
people informally. Most of them
objected to being made dependent
upon experts and to having their
life histories unfolded as a condi
tion of sharing the benefits of so
ciety." Dr. Reinhardt pointed out that
there are more than 50 different
conditions for parole in the various
parole jurisdictions.
"More than half of these rep
resent invasions of the field of or
dinary legitimate behavior for ord
inary citizens i n the o rdinary
course of everyday living.
"One inmate said to me: 'I'd
rather be here in the pen taking
the rap with the rest of them than
to be on parole and have no rights
at all. You can tell them to just
forget about parole for me. I'll
serve my time."
Dr. Reinhardl said that parole
rules often "close the door to com
munity living for the released pa
rolee.
"In one instance a parolee was
denied the privilege of attending
a party with law-abiding friends in
a bordering county. Well, he might
as well have gone, for he got
drunk and broke his parole that
night."
The criminologist further stated
that no community can really "re
form" a person without accept
ing him. "He must be given th
will and the ability to cooperate.
These are first considerations. He
will not be 'reformed' until he ac
quires a genuine interest in oth
ers. He must learn to give for the
social interest. Those who do not
learn this must surely ask "what
is life worth?"
