Can you imagine yourself
out on the stage, standing Ije
fore hundreds of people re
pealing lines that you had
memorized as a actor or ac
tress? ""Every registered student
at the University of Nebraska
can come to try-outs for our
plays," said Joseph Baldwin, i
"Some ot our oest actors
did not come for this field
of study," Baldwin ex
planed, 'they may come from
any one of the schools on the
University Campus."
The University theater
(Howell Theater) already has
presented Anne Frank this
summer. The second will be
Night Mast Fall. Try-outs
were held June 22nd and 23rd,
the cast uriD be announced
later.
The theater is set up as a
labortory for the students.
Profits are put back into the
production of the next play or
help pay expenses of the play
that has been presented.
'When present an ex
pensive play we try to put
on a less expensive play the
next time so the budget will
work out evenly,'" Baldwin
said.
"I do not say what plays
we are going to present for
the year" Baldwin said. All
of the staff, Baldwin. Dallas
Williams, William R. Morgan,
and Bernard Skalka vote on
what plays are going to be
presented throughout, the
year.

It will mark the first state
wide meeting of the Nebraska 1
Federation for Council of Ex

according to Dr. Howard E.
Tempero. Tempero is an as
sociate professor of educa
tional psychology and meas
urements as well as chairman
of the program committee for
the one-day convention.
Onr meeting will pay spe
cial attention to the problems
f the emotionally disturbed,"
Tempero said, whereas, an
other rerent convention con
centrated on the talented and
superior students.
Both emotionally disturbed
and .gifted children are in
cluded under the general
heading of exceptional chil
dren as well as those who are
crippled, have speech and
hearing defects, psyches and
mentally ill and handicapped,
according to Tempero.

"The exceptional are those
who need . any special train

anyone who deviates from
the norm and requires special

There have been NFCEC
chapters in Lincoln. Omaha,
Scottsbluff and more recently
in the K e a r n e y-Lexington
area and Beatrice, he said,
but this year it has been
organized on a state-wide
basis to insure greater prog

Child Needs Help
Tempero said that often the
child's parents wanted a boy
instead of a girl or didn't want
'the child at all. In the home iourui aMUiU vojume

Another classification is the
mentally tandicapped. These
children, tniwugh heredity, an
accident or illness, have devi

that they need special care.
Among mentally handi
capped persons, Tempero ex
plained, there are the edu
cate who can be taught sim

in special education classes.
The others are trainable but
who may never reach

cording to Mrs. Eleanor Ben
nett, guide at the capitol
building.
The building was conceived
in the mind of architect, Ber
tram Goodhue, as a symbol
of Law.
The bunding forms a cross
within a 437-foot square. The
400-foot central tower is
crowned with a 32-foot statue,
"The Sower," which symbol
izes Nebraska's agriculture.
"'Each of the building's four
corners represents a corner
stone of the law," said Mrs.
Bennett. "There are 18 panels
in the. outer court depicting
the history of the law; starting
with Moses and the Ten Com
mandments and ending with
the admission of Nebraska to
the Union."
Eight greaf statues making
up the lower buttress of the
tower symbolize the ideals of
culture which are protected
by law.
