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.

Two University graduates
were selected as delegates
for the International Farm

cording to the National 4-H
Foundation in Wash

Mary McHargue, an occu
pational therapist with the
Nebraska Psychiatric Insti
tute in Omaha, and Dale
Wicke, a graduate in Voca

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.

Colorado President, Newton, Resigns
After Administrate!! 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.

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.'" He further compli
