Higher Education Cost
Nebraska's Taxes
Low in Comparison
By TOM McGINNIS
Nebraskan Staff Writer
The State of Nebraska is 25th nationally in per capita
income and 50th nationally in per capita expenditures on
state taxes.
The above fact was taken from information tabulated
by Dr. Royce H. Knapp of the University. Dr. Knapp has
been serving as consultant for the North Dakota Board
of Regents this past year and prepared the facts to help
them study financial problems of their state.
Nebraska spends $18 per citizen on state colleges and
universities. The rates of neighboring states are: Colo
rado, $123; Kansas, $98'; Minnesota, $110; Montana, $101;
North Dakota, $97; South Dakota, $82; and Wyoming, $39.
It is obvious that many of the near-by states spend close
to twice as much per capita as Nebraska does on state
colleges and universities.
Nebraska spends $65.91 per person for state tax. Rates
for neighboring states are: Colorado, $123; Kansas, $98;
Minnesota, $110; Montana, $1M; North Dakota $97; South
Dakota, $82; and Wyoming, "1. The national average
is about $105, which is $35 moi ian Nebraska.
Dr. Knapp drew two conclusions from the above
facts. One is that in comparison with near-by states the
cost of higher education to the average Nebraskan is re
markably low. The other is that citizens of this state have
a far greater ability to pay for the needed improvements
in higher education than do citizens of other states.
"The facts are clear evidence that higher education
In Nebraska is operating very efficiently. However, many
improvements are needed and the facts are also evidence
that Nebarskans can afford them," stated Dr. Knapp.

Nye Arrest
To Bring
Court Case
Student Removed
For Lack of Ticket
By GARY LACEY
Nebraskan Staff Writer
A 19-year old University stu
dent will appear in Munici
pal Court today to plea, fol
lowing his arrest at the North
Carolina State-Nebraska foot
ball game in Memorial Stad
ium Saturday.
According to Lincoln Po
lice. Bob Nye was removed
from the game for going
through the gate without a
ticket at halftime. Police
said that Nye told them that
he had left the ticket in his
car and that he didn't need
it.
Police said that Nye was
taken to a head scout, at
whom he reportedly cussed. !
He was then taken to police
headquarters and booked at
3:47 p.m.
Contacted by the Daily
Nebraskan, Nye said that he
got a return ticket and left
the game at halftime to go
back to his fraternity house.
He said that when he re
turned to the stadium he was
permitted to enter at the
main gate, but a few steps
later was stopped by a boy
scout who told him that he
needed both the return tick
et and the student admission
ticket which Nye had left at
the fraternity house.
'Walked Past'
"I wasn't going to stand
there and argue with an eleven-year-old
scout, so I just
walked past him and returned
to my seat," Nye said.
He said that a short while
later the scout came with a
policeman and they told him
that he would have to go
talk to the head scout. Nye
agreed to do so.
Instead of taking him to the
head scout they took h i m
down on the track to three
other policemen a lieuten
ant and two patrolmen, he
reported. Nye said that the
lieutenant told one of the pa
trolmen to "haul him in."
Jim Penney, a spectator,
said the patrolman forced
Nye's hand behind his back
and repeatedly jabbed him in
the ribs.
'No Reason'
"I was not resisting arrest,
but only resisting because I
was being taken in and
manhandled for no reason,"
Nye said.
He said that they took him
to police headquarters,
booked him and threw him
in the "drunk tank."
Nye said he was not al
lowed to see a lawyer until
Sunday morning.

Alpha Phis Stricken
Twenty-Six Persons
Suffer Food Poisoning
Contaminated mayonaise and beef salad sandwiches
sent 26 persons to the Student Health Center Thursday
night with food poisoning, according to Dr. Kenneth D.
Rose, chief of the laboratory for University Health Serv
ices. Twenty-four members of Alpha Phi sorority, a busboy
and a maid were admitted to Student Health for treat
ment, said Dr. Rose. By Friday noon all had been released.
"Two cases were fairly
erate to mild in varying degrees," Dr. Rose explained.
"The cause we can pin down to beef salad sandwiches
that contained contaminated mayonaise," he said, pointing
out that all but one who suffered food poisoning had eaten
the beef salad sandwiches, and the exception had eaten a
cheese sandwich made with the same mayonaise.
Cultures of the contaminated food are now being pro
cessed to identify the causative organism, said the lab
chief. "It is most likely caused by staphylococcus," he ex
plained. Dr. Rose added that "a certain element of improper
refrigeration was involved."
Alpha Phi housemother Mrs. Mildred Nuss had no
comment Sunday except that she was awaiting word from

Safety Division of the City and

Homecoming Dance.
The orchestra, premiering
in Las Vegas last April, is
built around four new in
struments called Mello
phoniums. These instruments
were designed especially for
Kenton by the Conn Instru
ment Company and resemble
a French horn.
The orchestra features Jean
Turner, nationally -known
jazz singer, as soloist.
Kenton's list of musical
achievements is long and im
pressive. During 1953 and
1956 he conducted his Standing-Room-Only
tour of Europe.
WTiile in Europe during the
1956 tour, Kenton wrote the
ballet music for the wedding
of Grace Kelly and Prince
Ranier.
Upon the orchestra's return
to the United States, Kenton
was the third member to be
elected to the Jazz Hall of
Fame. Jan. 5 of this year,
he was awarded the Playboy
Magazine Jazz Poll winner
for the fifth consecutive year.
During the summer of 1959,
he established the Kenton
Workshop Clinics for teenage
musicians at Indiana Univer
sity. This past summer, he
also headed two more clinics
at Michigan State Univer
sity and Southern Methodist
University.
Dave Smith, chairman of
the Homecoming Dance com
mittee for Corn Cobs, said,
"This is the first time Kenton
has played for a University
Homecoming, and we're cer
tainly proud to have him."
According to Smith, ap
proximately 1800 students are
expected to attend the dance,
an increase of 400 from last
year.
Tickets will go on sale this
week for $3.50 per couple.
The dance will be held in
Pershing Auditorium from
9 p.m. to 1 a.m. Nov. 3.
Game, Half-time
To Be Televised
A new innovation in this
year's Homecoming weekend
will be the televising of the
Nebraska-Missouri game and
the half time ceremonies.
The nation-wide hookup will
cause changes in the tradi
tional Queen's Coronation.
The Queen will be announced
to the campus Friday night
at the rally, and crowned
again for the nation's televi
sion stations in a shortened
ceremony at halftime.
Geology Courses
Change Credits
The geology department has
announced revisions of Geol
ogy 1 and 2, dealing with gen
eral geological principles.
The two courses, consisting
of three one hour lectures and
one two hour lab, will be re
duced from four to three cred
it hours.
The credit change will be
effective next semester for
