students in this program with

Hall said.

entitled "World Affairs Com
ment."" Specific portions of the
program will be devoted to
allowing viewers to telephone
questions to Jackson for anal
ysis. His other program is called
'Traveling with Jackson." In
this show, Jackson is seen
informally in his role as a
humorist and story-teller.
Not a newcomer to Lincoln,

recently returned from trips
to Russia &nd the Middle.

he writes a weekly column
for newspapers in six countries.
"His challenges and Ms re
sponsibilities to those he
serves are every bit as
great" he continued.
The new advertising pro

with the cooperation of the
College of Business Adminis
tration, Dr. Hall said.

"Practical experience in politics be
used in the classroom."
As the victor in the recent race for state
legislator from the 31st District and a
graduate student at the University, Rich
ard D. Marvel should be in a position to
know.
Beats Incumbent
Marvel ran against incumbent senator
from AxteH, Kathleen Foote. Marvel, as
wen as Mrs. Foote, had previous legis
lative experience. He served in the uni
cameral in both the 1951 and 1953 terms.
The newlyelected senator is working to
wards a doctorate in political science.
"I'm beginning work a political
science degree," Marvel told m Daily Ne
braskan reporter, "with the express pur
pose of teaching is a coBege or univer
sity." However, studies wfll be laid aside, Mar
vel said, until his legislative term is
served.
A graduate of Hastings College in 1940
with cuia laude honors, Man-el returned
to school at Hastings last year. He needed
to complete IB hours of undergraduate
work in political science before he could
begin work on a master's degree.
No Poli Sd
"There wasn't any such animal as po
litical science when I went to school,"
Marvel explained.
Retarning to school. Marvel c o m -mented,
"is a direct result of twelve years
experience of one kind or another in gov
ernment and politics. I have a fueling
that I can make my best ccctribuiion to
society by working with young people in
an attempt to interest them in politics."
Interesting students u politics. Marvel
added, means more than encouraging
them to rua for office. He would alt like
to stress werking ii a political parry,
finding competent mem to rui for office
and taking a general interest in guvent
mental affairs.
"I don't stress one political party," he
emphasized, adding that he had been ac
cused of such actkm.
Asked how he liked being a student
again, Man-el replied, "I find it very
stimulating."
"It took me about 30 days to gel iiack
in the groove, though."
