estimates, would cost from
$20,000-$25,000.
Funds Possibility
McBride cited the possibil
ity of state and. or federal
funds and private donations
as the chief sources of rev
enue for the project.
"At present, 28 states have
already created a commis
sion, authority or governor's
advisery group to study the
problem and develop detailed
ETV (educational TV) sur
veys," he said.
McBride, himself, has re
cently returned from Maine
where he acted as a consult
ant for a similar study.
"This type of survey pro
vides the state with the tech
nical, legal, programing, ad
ministrative and financial
background necessary for the
creation of a state-wide edu
cational TV network," Mc
Bride said.

Application for a p p r o x i

Arnold Air Society
To Take Field Trip
By Steve Lough
The Arnold Air Society will
take a field trip to the Air
National Guard Base at Lin
coln Air Force Base this Sat
urday to inspect some of the
aircraft and receive first hand
information on maintenance
and the function of the Air
Guard.
Several senior cadets and
one completed cadet from last
year are nearly finished with
their flight Instruction Pro
gram. This is training light
weight aircraft Upon com
pletion of the program they
will receive private licenses
provided they can pass the
FAA test.
la the spring of every year'
several decorations and
awards are given to cadets
who lhave shown outstanding
leadership and scholarship. :
In order that interested ca
dets may strive for these
awards, this column will state
the requirements necessary to
win these awards.
Awards for Air Science IV

1. Society of American Mili

Student must be in upper
fourth of AFROTC class and
eDginerine classes, lie must
be jointly recommended by
the Professor of Air Science
and the Dean of the Engi

from purely scholastic ac
iuevemen'U. 2. Air Force Associativa
Award
Presented to the cadet who
possesses outstanding leader-j
ship characteristici such as:j
personal magnetism, attitude,
tion has already been taken
by the Nebraska Council for
Educational Television which
has requested the Federal
Communications Commission
to reserve five additional
channels in the state for edu
cational TV purposes.
The requested reservations
are on Channel 13 at Alliance,
Channel 9 at North Platte,
Channel 4 at Kearney, Chan
nel 3 at Bassett and Channel
8 at Albion.
The benefits of an ETV net
work in Nebraska would be
numerous says McBride.
"Individual stations would
be able to pool their resources
and obtain quality programs
at an economy price. The Uni
versity, for example, has an
outstanding English faculty,
while the other institutions in
the state have their own areas
of specialized interest," Mc
Bride explained.
At present, this type of pro
gram exchange is carried on
to a limited extent on the na
tional basis. KUON-TV, as an
affiliate member of the Na
tional Education and Televi
sion Radio Center, receives
about eight programs per
week from member stations
and from British and Cana
dian broadcasting systems.
Another advantage of a
state-wide network is "the
element ol immediacy cou
pled with the possibility of pro
gramming a single broadcast
from a variety of sources for
a depth approach," according
to McBride.
The network, he noted.
would provide instructional
service at the elementary,
secondary and college levels

ed in the resident contracts.
A new switch board would
also cost too much, he noted.
I The possibility of a direct
trunk line ta ?he girl's dormi
tory was studied and dropped
because of past experience
with a similar experiment.
"The only solution is pri
vate phones," Witt said. He
explained that the girl's dorm
J has 270 rooms and 90 private j
pnones and that such a move
would be possible in Selleck :

Special Form J
The contracts for residence
in the boy's dorms will noW
include a special form which '
may be filled out by anyone
desirjng a private phone, j
Those who would want pri-j
vate phones would be com-:
pelled to live on a special
floor where private phones I
could be installed.
Witt mentioned that there!
is the possibility for another
petition by both girls andj
boys living in the dormitories !
for a special trunk line. He
added that one or two dollar
donations per boy and girl
would help defray the cost.
Ag Board Airs
Bus Shelter Plan
Students waiting at the Agt
College bus stop on a cold
morning may get a relief if
a proposal of a new shelter
becomes a reality.
The proposal for a bus shel-
day by Russ Edeal, Ag Exec
member. The Board discussed
the idea and decided to write
a letter to Dean Eldridge to
give some consideration of a
shelter.
Edeal said that with buses
going only every half hour
that on many of the cold
mornings it would be an as
set to the students if they
could have some protection.
He proposed that some type
of ajr-tight shelter be built,
which would bold at least five
stu"ienls.

YW to Make
Interracial
Survey
Every 20th student listed in
the Builders Student Direc
tory will haye the opportunity
to take part in a regional in
terracial survey.
' Colleges in Colorado, Kan
sas, Missouri, New Mexico,
Utah and Nebraska are par
ticipating in the survey to de
terine interracial feeling
and customs in this area.
The project is being carried
out by the Rocky Mountain
Regional Council of the
YWCA and the West Central
area of the YMCA. .
Questionaires will ' be sent
unopened to the central com
mittee. The results will be
sent to the individual schools.
Jan Jeffery, chairman of
the Christian Witness YWCA
group which is conducting the
survey depends upon the
completeness of the results
and we hope all University
students involved will co-operate
and be prompt in re
turning the information
sheets."
The sheet asks for the in
dividual's race, age, and sex,
but not the name. It also asks
for an honest appraisal of the
campus racial groups,
whether the individual would
accept them as roommates,
which members of the group
one would date, how one
would accept them at school
entertainment events and the
diiections the ca-npus shculd
take, if any, toward integra
tion. Pictures Due
All p I c t u r e s borrowed
