Flying flash cards, a
double murder and sui
cide, another football
game gone with the wind
and rumblings about fir
ing a foot
ball coach,
all greet
ed yours
truly as I
stepped
toff the
plane two
; weeks ago '
J after a
weekend
in Miami
r Beach.
i While I was taking part in
1 an informative Associated
Collegiate Press confer
ence, under sunny skies
and 85 degree weather,
" things were not exactly
calm on this campus. !
My three day absence
, left me out of what sounds
to be an exciting week
end. However, I did not
miss the artic winds that
"were freezing the display
builders and the football
' spectators.
Student newspaper and
. yearbook editors came
from all over-Hhe nation
to discuss their problems
and seek solutions. Many
of the problems collegiate
journalists face today are
quite similar. However, I
did find that our problems
are small as compared
to other college papers.
One editor, for instance,
was elected to his position
by the student body last
spring. After taking a
strong stand editorially for
racial integration on his
campus, the students
voted to remove him from
office. He refused to leave
his position and at the
time of the conference he
didn't know if he had a
paper or not. Another edi
tor was in his third se
mester. He was removed
from his editorship once
by the publications board
and quit once himself.
The best part of the
conference was a talk by
C. D. DeLoach, assistantdi
rector of the Federal Bu
reau of Investigation en
titled "The College Press
Faces Communism." He
affirmed any suspicion
anyone might have con
cerning the possibility of
communists per se being
in this nation. His sugges
tions on how the college
press can and must fight
communism were well
taken.

In defense of a fellow
columnist on the sports
page, I for one feel his
views and observations on
the Husker football-athletic
director scene are
worthly and show insight
Last week his column
came under fire from a lo
cal professional sports
columnist. I think the
downtown writer was or
iginally trying to discredit
Mrv Prokop's views. How
ever, he ended up prac
tically slandering the in
dividual and not his views.
From what I have ob
served, the "Old Pro" is
somewhat popular on cam
pus and he does command
a good following. Keep it
up, Porky, they all laughed
at and ridiculed Billy Mit
chell, too.
OTT
With five exams staring
me in the face I'll have
to sign off. Have a good
Big Turkey day!

By T. F. EASON
Big Tom was the head
turkey on the farm, and
he had a problem. The
problem was those crazy
people that came barrel
ing through the place in
their cars on the way to
stock up in town.
The turkey farm, you
see, was cut into three
parts by two roads into
town. One was 14 feet
wide and the other slightly
wider 16 feet. Since the
roosting area was on the
east side of the farm (the
biggest roost was right
between the two roads)
and the feeding and wa
tering pens were west of
the roads, all the turkeys
had to make the perilous
crossing. Even the rats
and the door-mites had to
risk death on the roads to
pick up the scattered
corn.
The problem was in
creased because neither
the car drivers nor the
turkeys were overly care
ful at the crossings. But
it wasn't as if the physi
cal danger to the flock
was the whole problem.
Big Tom had his own dif
ficulties trying to study
the jobs that fell to him
as the leader turkey; con
centration was sometimes
hard with the roar of cars
and trucks on the roads.
Just the year before, the
farm manager had been
upset by plans to build a
new highway west of the
farm. The rumbling of the
traffic might disturb the
delicate floats in the wa
terers, it had been
thought. Just then a con
vertible with wicked pipes
shot past on the 16 feet
road, the exhaust blowing
Big Tom's notes helter
skelter. "How can the
manager be so concerned
over his waterers and not
worry about my trouble
getting this work done?"
he asked himself as he
continued to wonder why
the traffic on the roads
wasn't restricted. Some
times he almost believed
that it would be better
out on the northeast forty
with the other poultry and
the cows.
"Is anybody working on
a solution?" he mused.
The manager lived near
the top of a bard granite
cliff on the south side of
the farm, just west of the
14 feet road. Occasional
ly Big Tom heard rumors
that something might be

done about the problem.
Even the people in town
thought about it now and
then. But nothing concrete
ever happened.
"Oh well," thought Big
Tom, "there are more im
portant things like the
farm budget, building
those new multi-story
roosts, etc." He hopped up
on his perch and closed
his eyes. Gradually he
drifted into sleep, the
problem forgotten.
Big bad Tom.
