A few poles found under

''it Jf: I
Beatniques Are 'Way Out Man
Estes Is 'Way Up There'
By Dick Stuckey
Care for a cup of Expresso?
No, it's not a poisonous beverage, but
simply beatniqu" jargon for indifferent
coffee.
A request for such a drink in the Crib
line might lead one to discover University
beatniques if any for an addition to ed
ucation. It would be foolish, perhaps unhealthy,
to attempt this discovery for ridicule and
laughs. The effect of beatniques society
is beginning to draw cries from both sides
of society, but a legal non-political influ
ence from the group is still on the "Thou
shall not" side of legislation.
This reporter happened on such a person
this summer in Estes Park, although he
called himself "only an onlooker, rnan and
not far out enough yet to be real."
Pottery Shop
We met in the pottery shop when a clay
urn was dropped on his foot. When he
looked up, smiled, snapped his fingers and
commented on the good beat of the crash
ing urn, I decided to join him in a cup of
Expresso. .
This beatnique classified (an unforgive
able beatnique sin) the generation into'
three types the art beatnique, the true
"expresso" beatnique and the psuedo. .
Psuedos are imposters and not included
when the term beatnique is used.
He explained that all three types often

left) keeps a wary eye on the water-bar-rier
and ordered it taken down when the
game started. But by that time, skies were
about ready to clear.
A pre-game downpour
didn't stifle the Tn Delts as
they crammed their section
to overflowing with every
loyal fan carrying one or two
Husker balloons.
The AOPi's song was en
titled ' "All Hail the Husker
Spirit."
The waved the balloons in
unison in time w ith the cheers.
Several cheers were insti
gated by the DDD's, one,
"Go Big Red Beat KU,"
catching on throughout the
entire student section.
The TriDelts were on their
feet often during the game
and brought the team out of
the huddle every time.
Cheerleader Comments
According to cheerleader
Dave Anstine, the Kappa Del
ta's and the Sigma Phi Ep
silons were close contenders
for the cup.
Anstine explained that at
each remaining home game
the trophy w ill be given to a
different house. At the end of
the season the trophy w ill be
kept by the house that con
sistently has shown the best
spirit at the home games.
The words of the AOPi's
rally song were adapted from
a high school pep song known
by several of the girls:
All hail the Husker Spirit,
We're here to cheer you on
and on.
Our hearts are always with
you,
And eyes upon you, every
Husker man.
Oh yes, we're here to cheer
you,
And put that old pep in
each play.
So fight, fight, Huskeijs
Fight, fight, Huskers
Charge and fight your way
to victory.
Authors were Judy Law
rence, Dlinor Fiedler, and
Judy Emmonds.

A Business Careers Confer

The purpose of the confer

Miller, Dean of the College of

L. C. Saitorious of the eco

Deere and Co., Moline, HI.,
will be the guest speaker at
a dinner to be held in the

out man," but often find it only too much
"way up there."
Back To Frisco t
The natural beauty of the mountains and
the bare presence of nature, instead of re
leasing all emotions to expression, meets
the already half-released psyche of the
real beatnique head-on and a fierce clash
occurs between natural beauty rolling
down from the top and inner expression
frantically surging up from the bottom.
The clash usually sends a beatnique
back to San Francisco or Greenwich Vill
age, and is particularly effective in expos
ing the pseudos who remain in Estes.
This drive for complete, intermingled
expression of nature, emotions, beauty and
life, according to the Estes authority, is
the barest, truest form of art, although,
"foolishly unshared and indifferently with
held, man!"
Beatnique Potential
Beatniques claim everyone has "beatni-'
que potential" but that rational, conven
tional people (about 99 of the human
race) conform and are afraid of true ex
pression. .
Educators, laymen and a segment of
of the conformers retort that beatniques
have stepped over the line of moral and
social independence.
Universities are known as fertile land
for beatniques. A great opportunity for
non-conforming and expression promotes
growing bands of Castro-looking artists of
creative talent.
