EDITORIAL OPINION

Return To
Tonight the Husker basketball team opens its
home conference play at 8 05 p.m. in the Coliseum.
Coach Jerry Bush's cagers will be looking for win
number two of the young season against no losses.
What lies ahead for the basketball team no one
can accurately foretell. Most observers are optimistic
about the entire season. Few have predicted that the
Huskers are on their way to a conference champion
ship. One thing can be predicted, however and thnl
is t thrill a minute. Nebraska basketball has been
entertaining in the past and the future will undoubted
ly hold the same.
Few if any students can remember when the teams
of the Big Eight have been so evenly matched. Like
wise, it has been an age since at least one Kansas
team has not dominated the scene. Our Huskers have
already stopped the previously unstoppable Jayhawks
from Kansas U. K-State is still ranked among the
top 10 college teams in the nation but they lost their
opening conference game to Colorado. All in all, the
scarlet and cream stands in a good position to take
all of the chips this year with a little luck.
Regardless of the fact that University athletic
teams have produced poor results in the past few
years, students have had many thrills including the
miracle win over the then-giant Oklahoma In football
and victories over KU and K-State in basketball when
both teams led the national ratings.
As we have mentioned, we cannot assure a con
ference crown but we can safely say that anyone
seeking an evening of exciting entertainment will do
well to brave the elements to the Coliseum.

THE UNIVERSITY
Communication Problems
BY TOM
Several weeks aeo this
writer expressed his opin
ions about the woeful lack
of contact between the
students and faculty at
the University. The col
umn produced a good deal
of agreement and, hope
fully, stimulated some
thought. Today's column
will lay out two problems
which lie between the stu
dents and the administra
tors of the school, protb
lems which long experi
ence indicates are clear
and worthy of written ex
pression. WARPED VIEWPOINT
Students often are in
clined to be overly criti
cal and impatient with ad
ministrate. Many bring
a warped viewpoint into
the offices of student af
fair's, a viewpoint which
.conjures up a vision of
black robed judges inter
ested mainly in keeping
the peace. .
Pfccessary'academic and
social rules exist and are
necessarily enforced by
our administrators. On the
surface these can seem
unduly harsh and inflexi
ble. Yet students do not
see that rules are inter
preted and applied with ,
the best interest of the
ftudenta and the Univer
sity in mind.
Most students do not
'know the complexity of
problems placed in the
hopper in the administra
tion building. They hear
mostly the complaints of
disgruntled and conse
quently vociferous s t u
demV This one-sided pic
ture can produce the
warped viewpoint, and
frequently does so. It need
hardly be added that the
warped viewpoint breeds
suspicion and distrust, the
parents of frustration and
conflict.

EASON
Nebraska do not place
enough trust in responsi
ble students. This attitude
has its roots in an overly
cautious spirit of adminis
tration and an inordinate
fear of unavoidable errors.
The attitude of distrust
has stagnated activity
among student leaders
and activities. Yes, the
number of bum projects
and ideas has been re
duced; but it seems to me
that students should make
as many mistakes as pes
tle in college and get
them out of their systems
before the reality of the
post-graduation world is
upon them.
Two examples illustrate
the point. Within the last
year, I have seen the ex
pression of student opin
ion about Operation Abo
lition and related matters
stifled in deference to im
pending Unicameral budg
et proceedings. The free
dom to act as responsible
students and citizens was
curtailed by administra
tive distrust of student ac
tion that predicted raging
controversy and financial
disaster.
A more ordinary and
perennial illustration of
distract is the budget of
the Student Council. The
Council must have much
more money than it does
at present if it is ever to
become an effective rep
resentative body. This
year's Big 8 Council con
vention clearly revealed
the comparative poverty
of our Council. Our ad
ministrators must admit
that the Council will in
evitably make mistakes
and still trust the students
enough to grant substan
tial budgetary increases.
The motto, "In Students
We Trust," might proper
ly be placed on the desk
of every administrater.

Nominating Letters
Weeded Immediately
Another semester is
rapidly coming to a close
and with it the time for
nominations for outstand
ing Nebraskans is with us
again. Nominations for
these honors were opened
Tuesday. No names will
be accepted after next
Tuesday evening.
A trend in the recent past
shows that few nomina
tions are turned in until
the last minute. If this be
the case this semester, the
Daily Nebraskan may not
be able to consider sever
al worthy candidates. In
the past students and fac
ulty were given two or
three weeks to send the
letters of nomination in.
This semester there are
only seven days remain
ing without a nomination.
If we do not receive
what we feel to be an am
ple number of nomina
tions for selection, we feel
there is little use in pre
senting this long standing
honor. Certainly there are
sufficient numbers of eli
gible candidates on cam
pus if only their friends
will take the time to right
a letter to us. Certainly
the time sacrificed would
be well worth the net re
turn to a deserving friend.
If we do not make the
I awards the fault lies not
I with the newspaper. The
I cause will be traced to the
1 readers who only get out
of the Rag what they put
Washerwomen'
fPainting Shown
I The University Art Galler
gies new series of one-picture
exhibitions was inaugurated
during vacation when the
W 'Landscape with Washerwom
an" by Alessandro Magnasco
fwas put on display.
The early 18th century oil
painting by Magnasco, one of
I the important late Italian
-masters and sources for the
fjmodern Romantic movement,
Iwas borrowed from the Uni
Iversity of Michigan's Museum
of Art. It will be shown
I through the month of January.
Norman Geske, director of
fthe Art Galleries, said that
the University hopes to bring
to the campus the outstanding
paintings from the collections
of other universities in the
i nation.
. He said that the series will
I feature paintings of other
countries, as well as of other
periods.

PROBLEM OF
THE WEEK
A testator drew up a will
which stipulated that his
fortune should be dis
tributed among his chil
dren in the following way.
The eldest should get
$14000 and one-third of the
remaining estate. The sec
ond should receive $2,000
and again, 1 one-third of
the remainder of the
estate and so on down to
the youngest child. At the
last, no remainder should
be left for the youngest
child; only the outright
.sum. It is obvious that he
had more than two chil
dren, but just how many"
is not revealed. After a
number of years, when
his fortune had consider
ably increased and more
over he had acquired two
more children, he drew
up a new will with exact
ly the same stipulations.
What was the size of the
estate in both cases and,
how many children had
the testator? The fortune
consisted of a full amount
275 $175.00
