on the campus because of
lack of attendance and en

Change Remedy
"I congratulate the stu
dents and advisors who have
finally realized that some
changes must be made and
have proceeded to remedy the
problem," Handy said.
Although he said he felt the
basic Union program is
sound, he feels the need for
ereativeness, sensitivity and
greater enthusiasm.
"Isolation is stagnation,"
he commented, adding that if
the Union or any other organ
ization isolates itself from the
rest of the campus, it fails to
live up to its responsibility.

Remain Partially Open
Student Cduncil filings for
Business Administration and
Engineering College repre
sentatives are still open.
The filings will remain open
until 5 p.m. today, according
to Don Snick, chairman of the
Council elections committee.
Inadequate Number
The inadequate number of
candidates filing was the rea
son for extending the filing
in the two colleges, he said.

The slashed "Z" of Zorro

ter from the Student Council
in the Love Library study
room.
The Council placed the let
ter in the study room in 're
sponse to a request from the
library administration that
they investigate and stop card
playing in the room.
Thursday afternoon when
the Nebraskan copied the let
ter, a card game with ap
proximately seven students
participating was going on di
rectly in front of the defaced
sign.
The letter said:
"The library administration
has asked your Student Coun
cil to investigate and stop
card playing in this room. The
study room is designed to be
an informal place where stu
dents can rest, enjoy the re
freshments and study in
groups.

suggested that all organiza

should meet for a critical
evaluation of the function of
their group.
The need for a good lead
ership program is another
need of the Union for train
ing leaders is one of the basic
concepts on which the Union
was founded, he commented.

I'm pessimistic, because I'm

elded Monday to extend the
filings. At this time present
Council members from Engi
neering and Biz Ad were
asked to find suitable candi
dates to run for the positions,
Shick said.
According to Shick, he and
a Council advisor felt that
publication of the filing ex
tension would not be neces
sary because of the lack of
interest already shown in the
filings.
Valid Election
George Porter, IFC presi
dent, told the Nebraskan that
when the IFC heard that the
filings were still open that it
asked certain candidates to
run on the Engineering and
Biz Ad tickets.
Porter said that this was
done in order to make a valid
Council election and give
these colleges adequate rep
resentation. By Thursday afternoon only
five students had filed for
Business Administration and
four students for Engineering.
Engineering
Engineering C o 1 1 e g e has
three Council representatives.
Therefore two ' more filings
are needed to give them full
college representation.
Business Administration
now has three representatives
of which one must be a wom
an. Five candidates have
filed, only one of these... a
woman.
One additional woman can
didate is therefore needed to
give Business Administration
their full representation on
the 1960 Council.

of 4 p.m. Thursday and their

The Student Council inter
viewed one senior candidate
for Tribunal .Wednesday who
was not announced previous

Rodgers. Rodgers is a pres
ent junior Tribunal judge
and as such is an automatic
candidate for one of the sen
ior posts.
The Tribunal charter
states: "Junior members of
the Tribunal shall automatic
ally become candidates for
Senior positions."
Rodgers, a freshman in
Law College, was considered
a University junior for Trib
unal purposes. He is vice

Rosenlof Praised for
The following Is a tribute to the re
tiring forelm student advisor for the
I'nlversilT. Dr. Georee W. Rosenlof.
The article was written by Ken Ark
baratl, president of the Cosmopolitan
Club.
At the end of the current
school year, a professor
will go into retirement. To
many of us this will mean
nothing and will be regard
ed as the natural conclusion
to a long and arduous ca
reer. This man, however, is
known to the foreign stu
dents of this campus as
both an efficient adminis
tratorin which capacity
he has devoted his energies
and time to help foreign
students and a kind and
gentle person. It is with a
deep sense of loss and good
wishes that we anticipate
the retirement of Dr.
George W. Rosenlof, pro
fessor of Secondary Educa
tion and official advisor to
Foreign Students.
It has only been three
years ago that Dr. Rosenlof
was made the official ad
visor by the University
Administration. And pre
vious to this time, he exer
cised the duties of that of
fice in his then official ca
pacity of Dean of Admis
sions and Inter-institutional
Affairs.
I am sure that those for
eign students who have been
here more than three years
will appreciate the tremen
dous problems Dr. Rosenlof
faced in trying to maintain
contact with the rising num
bers of students from over
seas. For several months be
fore coming to study at this
University, the only rela
tionship that a prospective
viwed by the Council were
Caroll Novicki , and Gary
Rodgers.
Other Tribuanal judges, two
juniors and a Law College
representative, will be chos
en by the Council at its next
regular meeting.
It takes a majority vote of
the Council to elect a Tribun
al judge.
Council president Dwaine
Rogge clarified the procedure
Tribunal candidates were fa
miliar with the Tribunal
charter.
This, Frenzel went on,
might lead them to make
statements in their interviews
which would advocate a
change or a certain procedure
in the o p e r a t i o n of the
Tribunal.
Frenzel said if the Daily
Nebraskan were to print these
statements made in the inter
views that the Nebraskan
then might try to hold Tribu
nal judges to statements they
made when the Tribunal be
gan operation in the fall.
This would not be good,
Frenzel said, as the judges
might change their minds
after conferring with other
Tribunal members.
The action of the Council
followed the precedent estab
lished last year when the
Daily Nebraskan was not al
lowed to attend the Tribunal
judge interviews.

Majority Vote
Rogge said that a majority

Council members . raised
questions as to how they
were to know whether a can
didate they wished to nomin
ate had already been nomin

procedure would be to have
the candidates there at the
next Council meeting ready

event that they had not been

mittee. Junior Candidates
No candidates for the office
of Senior Judge were nomin

Miss Truell is vice presi

The Council broke the ,
precedent they started last
year in announcing the judges
immediately following their
selection.
Last year announcement of
the senior judges was with
held until all judges were se
lected. The reason given for
last year's action was to
"avoid politics."
Campbell's
Gives NV
$2,000 Gift
A $2,000 gift from the Camp
bell Soup Co. has been given
to the University, according
to Chancellor Clifford Hardin.
The gift is part of the Com
pany's annual aid-to-education
program, said W. L. Par
vin of Omaha, manager of the
Nebraska plants of Campbell
Soup Co. Parvin presented
the gift.
Parvin said the company
recognized some years ago
the importance of education
to free enterprise and indus
trial growth in the U.S.
"We hope that our program
will be helpful in advancing
the cause of education in the
U.S."

ignore. Disillusionment
about Americans tends to
set in and the student feels
naturally hostile to Ameri
cans in general.
However, when these
things happen and the ,
thought of Dr. Rosenlof
flashes through one's mind,
it is a relief to know that
there is at least one Amer
ican who has more than a
superficial interest in the
foreign student. He is sym
pathetic and understands
the problems and has a
wealth of experience in deli
cate situations that make in
ternational relations be
come better or worse.
Though Dr. Rosenlof 's of
ficial duties are over.the
impression he made upon ,
the hundreds of internation- '
als who came under his
jurisdiction will be a living
memory that all the foreign
students will take back with
them to their own nations
and governments.
To honor Dr. Rosenlof,
the Cosmopolitan Club is
holding a dinner Satur
day in the Student Union
Ballroom. This is an occa
sion that should not be
missed by any foreign stu
dent, faculty members as
sociated with the guest of
honor and American s t u
dents who have shewn sus
tained interest in interna
tional relations on the cam
pus. Come to this dinner
and help us give Dr.
Rosenlofabig sendoff.
Tickets can be purchased 1
