a few sacrifices and go back
' to their home towns, exercis
lag tills leadership for the
state and the University."
The idea that "Nebraska of
fers enough room to judge
each individually" is ex'
pressed, too, by U.S. Repre
entative from Nebraska Phil
Weaver.
"There's room all right,"
Dean Walter E. Militzer of
the NU College of Arts and
Sciences said. "There's room
in Nebraska for good men
and women in law, medicine,
dentistry, nursing and teach
ing. This is particularly true
in the small towns.
Competition
"One chief difficulty is
competition from out of state.
This is well illustrated in
journalism when newspapers
in larger cities have been
quite interested in our grad
uates. "Invariably, the salary lev
els and opportunities for ad
vancement in the large cen
ters seem greater than they
do in Nebraska," Militzer
said. "When this is mixed
with the natural tendency of
young people to want to leave
home for a while, the pull of
the home town and state is
usually overcome."
14. Governor Dwlght Bur
ney offered that the teaching
field is challenging and needy
at the same time.
"Young teachers must keep
this field well and alive and
tempered to the age of the
youngsters," he said. "But we
must have jobs for them
when they are ready, A
more friendly climate toward
industry in the tax field
would help a great deal, too,"
he said.
Cheap Education
J. G. Elliott, a member of
the UN Board of Regents,
feels that the state's offering
to youth is education at a
very low cost.
Others listed top opportiuv
ities in the state in such
fields ' as religion, banking
and finance, community de
velopment, insurance, agri-

cultural research and animal
husbandry.
Senator Ross Rasmussen of
Hooper contends the area
wide open for development is
that of human relations.
"We have made great
strides in the field of science
yet have done very little in
learning how to live with our
selves. Our neighbors, even
a life partner and most as
suradly another nation," he
said.
Militzer suggest? that a
good sociological study of Ne
braska would help pinpoint
what can be done to slow ero
sion of the state's youth.
"One real need is to 'bring
back the small community as
an exciting place to live," he
said,
"Social and cultural ties of
ten are just as important for
giving an aliveness to a small
town as is its economy. If a
small town can actually
pump some new life into it
through community enter
prises that relate to cultural
cohesion, professional people
again will think of going back
to their home towns.
"Some work, such as that
done by Professor Louis Trz-
cinskl with the Sandhills
SvmDhonv Orchestra needs
to be done in the lines of art,
languages, literature ana gov
ernment," he suggests.
"A concerted drive on the
part of business people and
commumty leaders to find a
place in Nebraska for young
Deoole is needed." Jen
sen added. "This too requires
some sacrifices, financially
by those who would take part
in offering jobs. But any in
vestment would benefit the
community and state."
Balance with Industry
Senator George Svas sug
gests that vouns people can
not be held strictly on an ag
ricultural economv. "It must
be balanced with industry,"
he said.
Representative Weaver con
cludes that "Nebraska, like
the world itself, offers to
young men and women a
challenge to grow and devel
op as free men in an era
when freedom is becoming a
rare commodity."
The University Busines Re
search Bureau explains the
high migration figures this
way:
The departure from the
farm and mine, and from
the small towns serving
them.
The departure from the
center of large cities.
The attraction of the
West and Gulf Coast.
The attraction of more
industrial areas.
In response to the question-
aire, University of Nebraska
Room
For Good
Men, Women
Chancellor Clifford Hardin
said "The University, with
standards recognized and ac
cepted throughout the nation,
stands ready to accept grad
uates of Nebraska accredited
high schools,-as do the other
colleges and universities.
"College is available to Ne
braska youth and it is a little
surprising to find that the
proportion of youth which
avails itself of this opportun
ity is somewhat less than that
shown by youth of surround
ing states. '
"Nebraska life, economical
ly and socially, is changing,"
Hardin continued. The great
need, however, is for people
with fresh ideas and strong
courage to help it adjust suc
cessfully to the transition
which is taking place. It is in
times of change and adjust
ment that great opportunities
occur. It is this kind of at
mosphere which Nebraska of
fers." The administrator s u g
gests that what the state
needs is a more optimistic
approach to our own evalua
tion of the state.
Accomplishment
"We need more pmnhasis
on the great flwomnlishmpnt
Nebraska has made in the
past century and it has been
a great one wnicn has trans
formed an open prairie into a
state which provides a very
gooa me ior nunarea of thou
sands of families We need
more industrial development
to oaiance our economy, and
mere are indications that this
is coming."
The Chancellor sniH the
University's role is one of
uemcauun w young people,
enabling them to see anr? fit
themselves to fulfill Nebras
ka opportunities.
I am certain." he con
cluded, "that the influence of
the University through the
young Deoole who studv here?
through Extension programs
sponsors; tnrougn its new
program for continuing educations-is
a great force for
good and for progress in Nebraska."

Publications
Jeanne Morrison, cochair
man of .the Publication Com
mittee which is working to
wards the combining of the
many annual University
rules, calendar and explana
tory publications under one
cover, reported that the cost
of the publication to be re
placed had been determined.
"We have studied booklets
from Iowa State and Missouri
and have talked to chairmen
of the Husker Handbook and
other involved publications,"
Miss Morrison said, "and will
be ready to determine the
economic feasibility of the
new publication soon."
Our next step will be to
sell the idea to these organ
izations and to the adminis
tration, reporting on our re
sults at the Council meeting
Nov. 1, Miss Morrison added.
Calendar committee chair
man Jane Fauquet said that
the tentative calendar for the
spring and summer sessions!
had been submitted by her
committee to the Faculty
Senate for review.
We are exploring the Dossi
bility of shortening the school
year by shortening the spring
hnal exam period, Miss Fau
quet said.
Attempts to begin school
earlier in the fall have been
prevented by interference
with the Ag campus' oartici
pation in the State Fair the
nrst week in September.
