Thursday, December 13, 1962 The Daily Nebraskan Page 3 Committee To Check 'Closing' AWS Establishes Investigating Group As an Incentive to scholar ship, the Associated Women Students (AWS) Board has set up a committee to investigate a program to change closing hours to a gradation on the basis of scholastic achieve ment, according to Jane Ten hulzen, publicity chairman. The Board has also decided to encourage women in ac tivities to check their activ ity points before they apply for head positions. If a girl thinks that she can handle more offices than the quota allows her to, she should make a special request from the Board for permission and then apply if granted permis sion, explained Miss Tenhul- zen. This would alleviate the problem of her having to re fuse a position after she has been selected for it. Also, Miss Tenhulzen pointed out, Interviewing boards would be more apt to select someone who they know will not have to refuse the position later. A committee had been set tip to irvestigate whether the point f ystem should be abol ished. Through the commit tee, a poll was taken asking the leaders of different organ izations for opinions. Miss Tenhulzen noted that the gen eral concensus was that some kind of guide was necessary. The poll also indicated, she commented, that the students who object to the system are mostly students who are not in activities. Arguments for the system were that it benefits the stu dent scholastically, it bene fits the campus by distribut ing leadership and it increas es organization efficiency. Miss Helen Snyder, dean of women, said that holding of fices of leadership is a chance for educational development and if a few people take all the offices, others wont have this chance. There are surely enough people of capable leadership on a campus this size, she commented. Kim Pohlman, chairman of the investigating committee,, felt that it should not be the Board's judgment as to how many activities a girl could be in. The Board also discussed considering Lincoln Proj ect an activity and consider ing only the editors of The Daily Nebraskan and The Cornhusker as presidents, and not the under editors and sec tion editors as the system is set up now.

ON CAMPUS MERE TO SEE OLl ABOUT m VMM H00 THffJK W '62 OR mt.Hoexmn? what I State Camp Places Two In Exchange 7 Two University graduates were selected as delegates for the International Farm Youth Exchange (IFYE), ac cording to the National 4-H Foundation in Wash ington, D.C Mary McHargue, an occu pational therapist with the Nebraska Psychiatric Insti tute in Omaha, and Dale Wicke, a graduate in Voca tional Ag, were nominated to the exchange program 1 a st July at the State Rural Youth Camp. The countries which Miss McHargue and Wicke will vis it haven't been announced yet, said John Orr, University state leader of 4-H. IFYE is a program for de veloping international under standing through the exchange of young people with farm backgrounds. "It helps rural youth's under standing through the exchange problems of similar people in other countries of the world as they learn of their culture, customs and way of life through the personal experi ence of living and working with them," Orr explained. The University alumni f the IFYE program will also celebrate its 15th anniversary at a special luncheon next Saturday noon at the Nebras ka Center. Nathan Gold, Lincoln bus inessman, will be the guest of honor. Gold's financial con tributions have made it possi ble for Nebraska to send IFYE delegates to other coun tries for the pst 14 years. Charles Carlson, president of the Nebraska IFYE Alum ni, said "We are citing Mr. Gold for his long service to Nebraska and the world." New Drivers For Tractors Are Possible According to two University researchers, magnets instead of people might be driving farm machinery some day. In a progress report to the American Society of Ag En gineers' meeting in Chicago Friday, G. W. Steinbruegge, professor of ag engineering, and instructor J. D. Pichon concluded that field opera tions of self-guided tractors are possible. According to Steinbruegge and Pichon, magnetic4 y p e guidance systems can guide a tractor along the path of electromagnetic waves trans mitted from a wire buried two feet or more in the soil. Magnetic guidance systems, which depend upon a current carrying wire .as .a steering reference, 'have been used sat isfactorily for some agricul tural operations, but the wire was on the surface f the soil. A wire must be at least two feet below the surface if it isn't to be cut by the plow, the researchers said. The two University engin eers have been studying soil conductivity in order to find out Whether subsoil electrodes will work as steering refer ences. The .electrical conductivity of most soil groups might hin der the use of a magnetic guidance system for tractors. The static in most of the im portant agricultural soils is below that of Sharpshurg sii- ty clay loam tlie soil used in the -study said Stein bruegge and Pichon.

Controversy EDITOR'S NOTE Thlt fltory from thf Colm-ftde Daily cancers- j tnc the administrative situation on toe BonMer eamvu. Quigg Newton, controversi al president of Colorado Uni versity since Sen. Barry Goldwater's attack on the school newspaper this fall, resigned his position for the coming school year. According to the Colorado Daily, the resignation ends a "six year term marked with growth and upheaval." Referring to the recent campus newspaper situation, Newton criticized the nation al press for covering the ac tions of small groups of stu dents in such a way as to make them appear to be ma jor events. The university was criti cized for allowing the student newspaper to carry articles attacking Sen. Barry Goldwa ter. After some delay, New ton dismissed the student edi tor. Newton's Concept Most of the controversy of his administration centered around Newton's concept of academic freedom and inter collegiate athletics. In March, the board of regents fired football coach Everett (Sonny) Grandelius on the basis of a recommendation from Newton. In making Ms "farewell ad dress,'" Newton commented, "Despite the problems and controversies inherent in rap id growth, the University of 'Colorado is, I am confident, well on its way toward be coming one of the truly great centers of higher education in America. The Colorado Board of Re gent, lecfed on a partisan state-wide ballot, split along party lines in their opinion Institute To View New Projector A newly developed slide pro jector which gives an audio message simultaneously with each visual image, will be the chief topic of discussion at the annual Audio-Visual Institute. The three day conference which begins today and will last through Saturday at the Nebraska Center will investigate the new projector which uses cardboard plates and accompanying magnetically-recorded messages on the -slide itself. In other business, the in stitute will deal with the new est electronic age teaching methods and devices. Sponsors of the institute are the University's Bureau of Audio-Visual Instruction, and the Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company. qDqz.

VftLC VPvnUiX, r J' mm aiMlUATC, StrM bail Criticizes National Press of Newten's accomplish-' ments. Democrats "had nothing but praise for his perform ance during his six years in office" says the Colorado Daily. The lone Republican on the Board, stated, "'I think New ton's resignation is in the best interests of the Univer sity." Previously, this Board member had commented, "This is the best news I've ever heard. It will solve most of the problems that have been plaguing the school." Mixed Reactions According to the campus newspaper, the Colorado fac ulty also greeted the news of Newton's resignation with mixed reactions.' The Dean of Students felt Newton had "done a good job", but a faculty member called the resignation "an expected consequence of the election results in the state," and expressed a hope- that the Regents would replace Newton with an educator rather than a political ap pointee. The president, elected by the Regents, who are them selves political members of the board, usually reflects the dominant political feeling of the state. In the face of the recent Colorado Republican victory, Democrat Newton was in a difficult position. This is best reflected in a statement oi another faculty member: "Newton's resignation was a correct assessment of the sit uation.'"
