EJHTOK1AL OPINION
E-Week Provides
Preview into Future
Thursday marks the beginning of the 49th annual
Engineering Week on our campus.
During the remaining fifty-one weeks of the year,
the engineering students stay pretty much in their own
territory, at the west end of the city campus.
Bat during this gala week, the Engineers bust loose,
wear ribbons and treat the rest of the campus to out
standing displays, discussions and designs.
As in any full-scale college week, a great deal of
time and effort has been spent in preparation for this
week. The non-engineers should take advantage of this
weekend and visit the land of the slide rules and straight
edges.
If any students have any doubts about the national
prominence of our Engineering College, a quick look at
the alumni list from Nebraska will show that our Engi
neering College has produced some of the finest indi
vidual engineers in the nation.
Overset
Just what is going on be
hind the Iron Curtain? I
wonder now that I have
heard two completely dif
ferent stories within the last
week.
Thursday
night a
guest
speaker at
the Young
Democrats
m e e ting
told of t h e
life she
lived in
Latvia un
der the Na
zis and Beatty
later on, under the Commu
nists. Her story was re
markable and almost unbe
lievable. Some of the hard
ships she, her family and
friends experienced were
comparable to some of the
tortures dealt out by Hitler
and his fanatics.
Only two Cays later one
of the visiting Russians,
while on this campus, was
asked if he had been asked
any embarrassing questions
or otherwise mistreated.
The Russian (also claiming
Latvia as his home coun
try) replied:
"One girl in the YWCA
at Iowa . State University
said that the Baltic states
of Lithuanaia, Estonia and
Latvia are colonies of the
Soviet Union. I am f r o m
Latvia and considered this
to be an abuse."
An abuse? It seems to
me that the American peo-
By Norm Beatty
Die in this country and
especially in Nebraska and I
at this University are goats
of a huge LIE.
On one night we see a
little woman in her late i
fifties emotionally retell I
her horrible experiences un-
der the strong arm control
of the Communists. f
Perhaps I am barking up
the wrong tree when I take
the word of a lower class
worker than a Soviet-edu-
cated journalist. If I am
then I wish someone would
answer the following ques-
tions? I
Why were 40,000 Latvians
deported to Siberia by the I
Russians in 1949?

CITIZEN KANE, a RKO
Radio pie tare starring
Orsoa Welles and featuring
the Mercury Players:
Joseph Cetten, Everett
Sloane, George Coulouris,
Paul Stewart, Erskine San
ford, Dorothy Comingore,
Ray Collins, William Al
land, Ruth Warrick and
Agnes Moorehead.
Here's perhaps the only
true classic of the Ameri
can film industry. Produced
in 1941 by boy wonder
Orson Welles and featuring
the popular Mercury Play
ers of radio fame, "Citizen
Kane" is the completely
compelling story of a mil
lionaire newspaper man
and his effect on various
associates and acquaint
ances. Whenever world film
makers gather perhaps for
a film festival and try to
list the 'Ten Best Films
Ever Made," "Citlien
Kane" is usually included.
In fact, it is usually the
only American film on the
list.
"Citizen Kane" was not a
financially successfully pic
ture, but its art value as
concerns cinematic expres
sion of a theme is unpar
alled. The moving camera,
unusual angles, inventive
lighting, outstanding s e t
tings, and some overpower
ing acting and direction
make this a true master
piece. Orson Welles, as 'Kane.'
gives the finest of his al
ways Imaginative perform
ances. This is a huge
achievement for Welles,
who both directs and arts
to near-p e r f e r t i o n
thought an impossibility for
any one man. (Welles also
collaborated on the script.)
The part of Kane's second
wife a blonde who Kane
trains to make an opera
singer and for whom he
builds a huge opera house
is portrayed with sincer
ity by Dorothy Comingore.
I am not familiar with the
biography of t h i s actress,
but this one performance
includes such a full range
of depth of emotion and un
derstanding, that it's a true
example of outstanding act
ing. "Citizen Kane" won only
one Oscar, and the New
York Film Critics cited it
as 'Best Film of the Year'
in 1941. The film was in
cluded in last year's Union
Foreign Film series. And
last Sunday evening, the
Union Film Commit
tee showed the classic. As
far as my viewing experi
ences have reached, this is
the best film I have ever
seen. And, if I could rec
ommend only one film for
everyone to see, this would
be that film.

Mortar Board's
Present Criteria
T flie editor,
On Ivy Day, May 6, Black
Masque Chapter of Mortar
Board will select outstand
ing Junior women for mem
bership. These women will
be selected on the basis of
three criteriascholarship,
leadership and service.
We recognize the imper
taace of scholarship is the
process of obtaining the
best edacatioa passible. The
mialmnm scholarship av
erage has beea placed at
iS aad fids average sfceald
represestt a sincere aad
kaest effert to lean.
Demonstration of leader
ship should involve such
elements as effective and
constructive contributions;
organization and depend
ability; ability to delegate
responsibility; friendliness
and ability to generate
enthusiasm; ability to re
ceive and take orders as
well as give them; ability
to develop rat are leaders;
performance of high qual
ity work as opposed to, or
as wen as, large quantities
of work; respect of and by
fellow students.
la ceasidering service,
we believe that the stsdeat

tzatioB is aof indicative of
this loyalty. It is deemed I
important that the stadent I
vary her interests through
several areas of service
rather thaa concentrating I
her efforts only a few :
"major" activiUes. Above
all, she should show a keen I
interest fa campas acthi- I
ties aad a desire to improve
campos problems. Mortar
Board seeks to select those
campos leaders who have
achieved a balance ia their
college work betweea I
scholastic endeavors aad
participation ia the campos
community.
Those who have been i
masked on previous Ivy
.Days know that Mortar
Board is much more of a
service than honorary I
organization. The purpose f
as stated in the preamble
of our constitution is "... L
to promote college loyalty, .
to advance the spirit of t
service and fellowship f
among University women,
to promote and maintain a
high standard of scholar
ship, to recognize and en
courage leadership and to I
stimulate and develop a
finer type of college worn-
