Art Show Displays Work of Forty
By Janet Sack
Yesterday a collection of
122 works of paintings and
sculpture by 40 artists went
on display in the 71st Annual
Nebraska Art Association
show.
The show will continue
through April 16 on the sfec
ond and third floors of Mor
rill Hall. Gallery hours are 8
a.m.-5 p.m. daily, 2-5 p.m. on
Sundays, and from 7-10 p.m.
on Tuesday evenings.
The coKtributtng artists are
from all pirts of the United
States with five British artists
included. Mist of the artists
are represented by at least
three items.
By displaying a group of
works, the viewer can gain
an insight into some of the
personality of the artist, the
ways in which he changes
from one work to another,
and how he works, said Nor
man Geske. director of the
University Art Galleries.
Contemporary
Of the 40 artists, 10 of them
arc of mature years and of
considerable reputation, said
Geske. but most of the pieces
art the works of the younger
generation of contemporary
artists of today.
Of special interest are the
three new paintings bought
through the Thomas C. Woods

Fund for the Nebraska Art
Association. These paintings
will become a permanent part
of the University's display.
Another painting was donat
ed to the University by an
anonymous person. The gift
of the anonymous donor is an
oil entitled "The Sleepers" by
Rosemarie Beck.
The three new paints bought
by the Nebraska Art Associa
tion are "Khaeo" an oil by
James Brooks; "20 November
1959" an oil by Conrad Marca
Relli; and "Yellow Band,
1956" an oil by Mark Rothko.
NU Grad
Also of special interest will
be four paintings on display
by Carol Haerer, a Univer
sity graduate. Miss Haerers
paintings are "Red Painting,"
"Grain of Summer." "Do Not
So Gentle," and "Restraining
and Shining."
"The Yellow Band, 1956"
will probably be the most con
troversial of the paintings on
display, said Geske.
Rothko's style is highly orig
inal and characterized by
large rectangles of color float
ing in undefined space. Those
characteristics have made
him a highly controversial
artist. His works show no di
rect reflection of the past as
he is largely self-taught.
Rothko was one of four
artists selected for the U.S.
Representation at the XXIX
Biennale, Venice, in 1958.
Wood Sculpture
In addition to paintings the
show contains an unusually
large number of wood scuTp
ture and iron and steel sculp
ture. One of the most out
standing wood sculptures on
display is a gilded wood pan
el by Louise Nevelson entitled
"Royal Tide."
Most of the paintings and
sculptures are from displays
in New York City with some
coming from private collec
tions, and one from Joselyn
in Omaha. '
The Nebraska Art Associa
tion show is one of the oldest
annual contemporary art ex
hibitions in the country. The
gallary's permanent art ex
hibitions has been put into
storage and the whole gallery,
both second and third floors,
are devoted to the exhibition.
On March 22, April 5, and
April 12 a coffee and com
ment hour will be held from
11-12 a.m. On March 29 the
coffee and comment hour will
be held from 3-4 p.m.
Dorothy Adlow, art critic
for the Christian Science Mon
itor, will speak during the!
last week end of the show.

hibits at the Nebraska Art Association show. Titled "Soli

strain of the annual exhibit.

Schroeder.

Annie Rests Her Case
With Frosh Moot Court
Annie Goldfine moved to
Lincoln on August 1, 1959 to
attend the University.
She obtained an apartment
and told the landlady mat sne
had been moving from state
to state over her lifetime but
that she now expected to
. . . d-i
make Lincoln ner nome. ane
enrolled in the University in
SeDtember of 1959 and paid
non-resident tuition.
Annie obtained a full-time
job as bookkeeper at a local
cafe, and through these earn
ings, was self supporting with
the nossible excention of an
Alger Hiss scholarship which
she received for a paper sub
mitted on "America and What
It Means to Me".
Annie voted in a special
election, paid personal pro
perty taxes in Nebraska, and
obtained a Nebraska driver's
license.
On October 1, 1960, after
being notified by the- Board
of Regents that she mnst pay
out-of-state tuition, she
brought suit to refrain the
University from charging the
additional sum included in
that tuition.
The preceding is a typical
case situation which fresh
man law students will con
test and defend in the fresh
man Moot Court proceedings
now under way and running
until March 22.
Sixty students will com
prise 30 teams battling the
moot proceedings.
In each case one team will
constitute the appelle, and
another the appellant.

One of the best investments you'll ever make...
You Know what you invest in advanced ROTC
... two years of classroom time and outsirle
study.
But just see how handsomely your invest
ment pays off.
first and foremost, there's the proud mo
ment in Graduation Week when the gold bars
cf a Second Lieutenant are pinned on your
Army uniform . . . and deep inside the warm
sense of accomplishment at having made it.
There's immediate help m meeting expenses And later, when you're starUnf your slime
.... a subsistence allowance of $535 for the
two-year advanced ROTC course. Uniforms
and military textbooks paid tor. $117 for
your six-week summer camp training, plus
travel allowance. And when you're commis
sioned, a $330 uniform allowance.
You discharge your military obligation with
the traditional rank, pay, privileges and re
sponsibilities of an officer in the United
States Army.
up the civilian ladder, advanced ROTC wil
still be paying off. Success in the executive
areas of business and industry comes earlier
and more substantially to the man who can
lead. Few are born leaders; but leadership
can be learned. And advanced ROTC is a
great place to learn it.
Talk with the Professor of Military-Science at
your school. Learn more about advanced
ROTC. Ask particularly about the ROTC
course w Leadership, with its practical ex
perience in command responsibilities.
