Friday, May 4, 1962 The Daily Nebraskan Pag 3 Architects Study Potential Of Nebraska Recreation University architecture stu dents are out, almost en masse, to prove that Nebras ka's recreational potential is :ne of the most vital, yet ' idden, advantages of the tate. Early signs show that it's iiot going to be a project for veak or unimaginative minds or weak backs either, be cause it's going to be a lot hard work. Associate Prof. Dale Gibbs, coordinator of the project, said that 80 students in the upper three classes in architecture are involved in the project. These students were giv en permission to select any potential recreational site in Nebraska, study it. visit it interpret it, imagine it the way they would like to see it, make models ot it, photo graph and sketch it and de fend their selection. Architect Emphasizes Slecreational Projects Ladslav Rado of New York nnd Tokyo, an architect "of : international reputation, as sured University architectual ' udents that recreational n-ea planning is as proper r their profession as the "jilding of a hospital, factory or house. Rado stopped at the Uni versity while in Nebraska on i consulting mission related 0 the possible private de elopment of a recreational iark in the northeastern part )i the state. "Growing interest in recre tional developments is prob ; bly a reflection of a growing ?unds Ready ?ov Linguists Two scholarships of $250 ich have been set up for a : eshman boy and girl enter ,ig the University next fall ;md planning majors in a ro monce language. The fund was established by Daniel G. Simons of Lincoln in memory of his wife, Agnes Gordon Simons, who taught for 35 years in the romance hnguage department at tne I niversity.

Not since medieval times and the Gothic era, he said, has architecture achieved real greatness, and the prime difficulty is the absence of any clear, supreme influence in modern time. "There was a supreme in terest in spiritual values which led the architects and builders of the Gothic period to greatness," Rado said "Our world is now so com plex and so filled with con fusion that we have no clear Inspirational concept for the architect to grasp." Such a concept, he added, may come m time but prob ably not for a century or two. Too much of modern archi tecture, Rado said, seeks to master the forces of nature rather than strive for com patibility with them. 'The result," he said, is that we build buildings which have been scrubbed and pol ished continually to avoid shabbiness. We are fightin; nature and nature is fighting back."

To top it all off, they're going to have to please other people with their ideas. A jury of experts in planning recreation and Nebraska-lore will provide a critical foil for the students' ideas. Prof. Gibbs explained mat tnere were manv rea 'sons for the project, not the least of which is to give the young architecture students the best possible understand ing of their state. And the project will give them some hard, practical experience at the same time. "The total effort is of such a magnitude that it will give them an idea of what it means to be a responsible and creative architect," Gibbs said. Projects Listed The projects for the year are: the proposed develop ment of tourist sites to better view the Omaha stockyards, further development of the Salt-Wahoo watershed, state wide youth hostel facilities, Steel City Canyon (southwest Nebraska), Fort Robinson, the "Chain of Lakes," the restoration of -Brownsville and the planning of a lake side resort at Lewis and Clark Lake. Professor Gibbs said he was pleased with the first selections. "They all have promise, and I'm very happy to see that one team chose the Oma ha Stockyards as a project," he said. Gibbs pointed out that it is very difficult, if not almost impossible, for outside tou ists to find the few spots where the yards can be seen and appreciated. Nation's Meat "People everywhere should see where the meat that feeds this nation passes," he added.
