Letter of Intent
The campus organization to
be known as International
Relations Club (IRC) has
submitted its letter of intent
to the Student Council.
IRC plans to affiliate with
the Association of Internation
al Relations Clubs (AIRC) as
soon as possible. There has
been an organization on the
campus affiliated with
the international organization
from 1931 until last year
when IRC disbanded.
The purpose of the associa
tion is to coordinate the ac
tivities of American and Ca
nadian member clubs, to
stimulate interest in worth
while programs interna-j
tional relations and to offer
practical assistance in pro
gram planning.
Several growps now furnish
AIRC with flnaarial support.
These toclsde the Carnegie
Endowment for International
Peace; the Foreign Policy
Association; the Danforth,
Hazen, and Y troth Friends
Foundation, and Foundation
Foe Yevtn and Stwksst Af
fairs. The University chapter of
IRC will pursue a goal of
providing the broadest possi
ble opportunity for interna
tional education. Through lec
tures, forums, reading mate
rials, and participation in
events of an international na
ture, IRC hopes to facilitate
student understanding of the
complex operations of inter
national relations.

. Old MacDonald's barnyard scene is the newest attraction at the Uni
versity of Nebraska's State Museum. The display consists of twenty-one
skeletons of modern-day domesticated and small, wild animals and
birds which could be found on any typical farm in the United States.
The 45-foot long "farm" was made possible through a grant to tha Uni-
cy only 35 years, said Dr.
Morales, .

Progress that can act as
a revolution to encourage
and guide Latin America to
become a strong partner in
the free world, said Dr.
Morales.
Population Increase ;
"la spite of its mortality
rate of one for each ten
born, Latin America is in
creasing more rapidly in
population than any other
area of the world.
"By 1970 its population
will total 600 million
twice that of the United
States at that time," said
Dr. Morales.

a federal employee in Wash

last year, was the first un

the position, plans on a two

The resident adviser acts
as the coordinator of the Sel

There are seventf en counsel
ors and four assistants work
ing under Kuzelka now.
"Basically the counselor
acts as the Administration's
representative among the stu

prime function is to knew the
men in his area and carry
this knowledge into dealings
with the Administration."

not be Communist inspired,

"The Alliance is not a
give-away program to La
tin America, or a money
lending project to our
southern neighbors," he
emphasized. "For 80 per

spent under the program in
the next 10 years will come

Kuzelka pointed out that in
the field of discipline, one of
his principle functions, "any
discipline must be construc

fective when self imposed,"
said Kuzelka, "so we have
tried to have at least the mi

by the students themselves.
"The disciplinary board is
one step in this direction."
