The last communication from

present school 'year was re
ceived yesterday by the Dai

G. Clifford Prout, president,
did not mark any Df the sev

special form-letter reply.
He was a big threat for the
University's second all-"Univer-sity
convocation this year
when he notified the Dally
Nebraskan that he would be
on campus sometime in
March.
When Time and Newsweek
jvealed G. Clifford Prout as

"It will be a privilege for
our literature students to. "be
able to meet and discuss fic

said John Logan, president of
Hollins.

Militzer Clarifies
'Schooner' Case
"A report that a short story
scheduled to appear in this
past year's issue of the Uni
versity published "Prairie
Schooner" was removed is
true. ,
"The decision was entirely
n:ine," said Dean Walter Mil
itzer, of the College of Arts
and Sciences. "I considered
the story written by a former
student of the University as
obscene and in poor taste."
"However, it is not true
that Prof. Shapiro's resigna
tion as editor was the result
of this incident. He had noti
fied me earlier that he wanted
to be relieved of the duties
so that he could devote more
time to teaching and writing,"
