Page 2 The1 Nebraskan Tuesday, October 4, I960 Not Guiity EDITORIAL OPINION Outstanding Cultural Entertainment Offered Student are being exposed to some of the most out standing cultural offerings on any campus today in the various concert, film and theatre series presently being promoted. The best bargain from an economic standpoint is the Student Union's foreign film series which offers 12 movies for $4 to students. This is an average of 35 cents per show and included in the film series are "La Strada" award winning Italian Film; a top French film, "My Uncle"; and "Room at the Top", which won an academy award for best actress, to mention a few. Live theatre presented by students is being offered by the University Theater at five presentations for only $5. This includes such plays as' "Streetcar Named Desire," an original opera, two classic drama works and an orig inal prize winning play. The campaign for ticket sales opens today. The Lincoln Community Concerts Assn. which is pres ently conducting its membership drive is offering its finest season since it was introduced a few year ago. Included are a stereo festival by Fred Waring and the Pennsylvanians, one of the all-time favorite musical groups; the Spanish ballet, considered one of the top theater attractions in Spain; the Vienna Choir Boys; and the Dallas Symphony Orchestra with Leonard Pennario as featured piano soloist. The group offers the four con certs for $4. So the student has available 20 top attractions for a total of $13 or 65 cents each. It is an opportunity that no one can afford to pass up and one which no one should. Staff Views Just A The announcement that the University enrollment is the highest since 1949 c a u s e s the speculators throughout the campus to shift into high gear. The increased enroll ment will provide a boost, not only to the University population, but to the school's prestige in years to come. For it is the stu dent graduating from the University that carries the banner of his alma mater to more areas than the University, its ""ublic Rela tions Department or its Chancellor could ever hope to cover. This is true, if the student graduating from the Uni versity feels that the edu cational benefits offered here are the best in the United States. It is doubted, very seri ously, that a large portion of the graduates are doing just this. Recently in a Minneapo lis, Minn, newspaper, a June graduate of the Uni versity of Nebraska had this to say about the female's role in college: "Most females come to a university just to find a husband." Granted, this is an iso lated case. But at the same time this isolated case was printed and many readers were able to read the views of this recent Ne braska graduate. Why aren't more students proud of their University? Why don't they want to ex press the wonderful things that Chancellor Hardin and other faculty representa tives ire doing for this University and the state? The campus, at least the Greek system for the most part, is presently in a far from happy manner, be cause of a problem that has grown into a monster: This problem has steadily grown, and has finally be come an oversized blob which will, if not handled properly, provide a mess, large enough to erase all the goodwill spread by loyal Nebraskans. Seeing so many Greeks up in arms about this prob lem causes one to stop and think . . . What would happen to the system if a real problem crossed its path? A problem like the one that faces the four state institutions in Cali- Daily Nebraskan SEVENTY-ONE TEAKS OLD Member Associated Collegiate Press, International Press Representative: National Advertising Service, Incorporated Published at: Koora 2S, Student Union, Lincoln, Nebruka, lth Sc E Telephone HE t-763L ext. 25, 4226, 4227 The IHIIr Habnwku Is psblMiei Mnster.

They do not know what value either man places upon free Berlin.

Whatever the names, whether Bowles or Stevenson or Dillon or someone else, they would be -the names of men who have accumulated mean ingful, dissectible records on the specific problems of Europe, Africa and Asia. If the two names were now announced, the outside world would be able to take the first real measure of Nixon and Kennedy and to see if they do significantly differ on the great global issues. Indeed, it is not only the outside world that would feel enlightened, but a fair few millions of perplexed American voters. DiM. 1MO. Hill Syn4irM. Int. i fi n i r u u u rerresnes vour taste "ajr-sgftens, every puff yJl , -.' 11 By Myron ' Papadakis and Bob Nye Many articles have been written concerning the trend of the nation toward conformity. To sociologists this situation is alarming and even shocking. Their views on the subject are summed up thusly: "Ameri cans are no logger able to think for themselves; in stead, group thinking has replaced singular thinking". This being true, it is quite clear that we have only average thinking, and no great emphasis is put on excellence. In all types of society found in America there is conformity. On campus how ever, there is a wide choice of which group to conform with. In our opinion con formity is the only way to be accepted. (Acceptability being a most treasured goal). Conformity with many groups of people is directly proportional to ac ceptability to said groups. So join now. Conform now! Give up bad habits such as thinking for yourself. Add another card to the collec tion already bulging your billfold. If, however, you find it hard to fit in the group be cause you are a neophyte, then rejoice. Being basically mercenary (that is the rea son for the foregoing para graphs), we have the solu tion to your problem. The answer is to buy our De lux Campus Conformity Kit.

NU Ag Research Featured on TV A College of Agriculture re search project was featured on a nation-wide television farm program last Saturday. This project, the production of disease-free swine, was seen on the "Today on the Farm" program, a new farm series. The program showed the techniques of the program which now has been termed the Specific Pathogen Free Swine. Dr. George A. Young and Norman Underdahl of the veterinary science depart ment explained the disease free process. The Animal Husbandry assisted with the program.
