The Nebraskan Monday, April 24, 1961 Page 4 hi 5 N 4 : i 1 I j : - i - Latvian Woman Paints Picture Of Iron Curtain Life for YDs By Norm Beatty "Will the Communists ever take over the United States?" "If the Russians take this country how will they do it?" "What can we do to stop the Communists?" These were only three of several questions students raised test week at the Young Democrats meeting where a speaker painted a remark able story of life behind the iron curtain. The speaker was a small woman in her late fifties who smiled as she spoke in brok en English. Her story, how ever, was crowded with tre bles she and her family en countered while living under the Nazi regime headed by Adolph Hitler and the "Im perialist Communists." Her name will be withheld to protect her daughter still living in Europe under the Russians but her words will not. Life Under Russians The speaker told the Uni versity students that life un der the Russians today is hard ly different from the life the Latvians had under the Nazis during and before World War II. - "After the War the Russians deported 40,000 Latvians to Si beria. The Nazis . . . took the young men for their army," she compared. In Latvia today there is "much fear," the Lincoln res ident said. "There is no edu cation for the young ... my daughter's husband was tor tured by the Russians after the war," the woman stam mered nervously when she re fered to her daughter still living in Latvia with her hus band who is now nearly in capacitated but te a c h e s school. After World War II, the speaker noted, "we were promised a higher standard of living by the Russians. This is not true." Low Wages The average worker received 350 to 400 rubles per month.

The program ill be fol lowed by a discussion. A pair of shoes costs 350 ru bles, she explained to give an idea of the wages in Latvia. She noted that life in Latvia is a "little better since Stalin died." As the speaker continued she refered to friends and rel atives who suffered under the Germans and the Russians and some who are still living miserable lives under the Communists today. She paused . . . twitched her fingers . . . took a deep breath and with a smile the speaker continued. Horrible Lies "Our papers tell horrible lies about other countries, she explained. "Most of the people do not belive in every thing they read in Pravda but. she added, "some of them have nothing else to believe Last summer she returned to Germany to see a cousin and was trailed by Comma nist spies. "My daughter write to me and said don t take a trip to see her," she said then paused as she stared to the floor. Her impressions of Khrush- rVov "He talks like a boy from a village ... like he had no education at all. At the summit meeting in France the interpreter would not inter pret what he said because it was so ... so filthy," she noted. How do the people of Lat via feel about the United States? The question birnht an immediate smile i, her face. "America is a iairyland to everyone. Everybody is rich in America ... everything without working is how the people think of America." She said that the people in Latvia expected the Ameri cans to overcome Communism after the fall of Hitler. When asked if she thought the peo ple feel let down she simply remarked: "I couldn't say."

Then she gave a hopeless explanation "The people don't think very deeply. They thought life was better under Hitler. B u t I couldn't say now." The elderly lady and her family now live in Lincoln but originally came to the U.S. to live in Texas where they suf fered further when they had to pick cotten and live in a near-slum dwelling. She answered each question as best she could and thanked the Young Democrats for al lowing her to speak. She was then escorted back to her home by Jim Huge, president of the YDs, knowing that she had enlightened a group of free people at the risk of ex posing her friends and rela tives still living under the Communists.

The remainder of those questioned were split into two groups one group of six de cidedly negative and a group of four who were not particu larly concerned. An increase in the tuition rate of $12 has been approved for next year and will make resident tuition $132 and tui tion for non-Nebraskans, $252. Among the students ex pressing favorable reactions was Pat Egan, a sophomore studying pre - law. "We're lucky to have such a cheap tu'.tion.". he said, "with the cost of everything else going up, tuition has to be included and it is at a minimum in Nebraska." Not Unreasonable "I don't think it is unrea sonable at all," said Hal Spurrier, junior in Engineer ing and Agriculture. "As the cost of living goes up, it's bound to cost more to go to school." Marilyn Leighton, a sopho more in Teachers College, said "It seems like it still isn't as much as other col leges and they have a good reason for increasing it." Another Teachers College i student, junior Nancy Wilson, said, "It's worth it. It doesn't ! seem like too much to add if ' it will benefit the University." 'if it's necessary to raise : it to increase the income, then i it's the best thing." was the ; opinion of Darrell Grapes, ! senior in Business Adminis- tration. j Marilyn Hastings, freshman 1 in the College of Arts and Sci ences, said she felt that "they I wouldn't have done it without reason." Increased Benefits "Twelve dollars isn't such j a great increase for the ben efits you can get from the University," stated Bob Geis ler, junior in Business Admin istration. A foreign student. Mats I Holm of Sweden, said that he was not too familiar with the tuition system as it did not exist in his country. "But," he said, "Nebraska's tuition rate seems reasonable in comparison with other campuses." OXFORD f0r comfort . . . quality . . . appearance ON CAMPUS Also in favor of the increase was Chuck Borchman, junior in Business Administration, who said, "It's all right-it should help the University." Veretta Dorf, a sophomore in Business Administration, agreed. "It isn't too much. There's no cause to worry be cause it wouldn't have been raised if it wasn't necessary," she said. Students expressing nega tive reactions to the rate in crease included Hilary Las sek who said, "I'm strictly against it." He is sophomore in Arts and Sciences. "Naturally, I'm against it. I'm paying my own way through school and every in crease makes it harder," said Phil Schenck, sophomore in Arts and Sciences. Too Much Mary Eager, a sophomore in Business Administration. ; said that she did not favor the increase because "I think it is just too much to pay." "I don't approve," said Car ol Johnson, freshman in Biz Ad, "as long as the school gets money from the state there is no need to make the students pay more." Another negative reaction was that of Iraj Azimzadeh who said, "I think it is pretty expensive now and as a for-1 eign student, I don't know how I'm going to afford it." Find Another Way Bill Paxton, a senior in en gineering, stated, "It looks like they could find some oth er way to raise costs this is supposed to be a state-sup-i ported school." inose wno ma not seem particularly concerned made statements such as "It's just! anotner added cost.

Metracal's brother Susto gene is known on the Univer sity campus most popularly as the. "athlete's food." The main difference between the two products is the calory content, Metracal being low calory and Sustogene high calory. Experimentation with the use of Sustogene as an ath lete's pre-game food was ini tiated at the University Health Center last fall. Re sults, according to Or. Ken neth Rose, director of student Health research programs were quite favorable. As a result of the study, schools throughout the nation are inquiring about Nebras ka's athletic feeding program and the use of Sustogene in conjunction with college ath letics is spreading rapidly. Sustogene consists of pre digested milk protein with vitamins, minerals and car bohydrates added in the cor rect amounts. It was original ly developed as a post-operative feeding solution or as a supplemental feeding for un derweight people. The University research with Sustogene was financed by a grant from Mead-Johnson, manufacturer of the product. Preliminary re search showed that the heavy pre-game meals customarily RAM Ratifies 2 Amendments The individual houses of the Residence Association for Men (RAM) have unanimously ratified the two amendments to the RAM Constitution, an nounced Fred Rickers, presi dent. Amendment one changed the source of parliamentary procedure from "Robert's Rules of Order" to the mor modern "Sturgis ;. Code of Parliamentary Procedure." The second amendment made the vice president and treasurer two separate of fices. The approval of this amendment has created an opening on the RAM election slate scheduled for April 27. A stuSent desiring to run for the vacancy may do so by ob taining a petition from Rick ers and having it signed by 30 members of RAM by mid night Thursday.

United given to athletes several hours before the game were not completely digested by game time. This resulted in stomach upset as well as de tering the players energy. It was known that liquids leave the stomach much quicker than solid foods so it was postulated that perhaps a liquid food such as Susto gene might be effective. According to Dr. Rose, the players felt better both before and during a game. "The football team was very highly satisfied with the Sustogene diet and used it all through the season." Sustogene is now used in all University sports.
