Washington (CPS) The
Senate Education Committee,
in a "miracle move" last
Wednesday, reported out a
$1.75 billion aid to education
package.
The four-bill package was
approved with such speed and
ease that its chief pilot, Sen.
Wayne Morese, D-Ore., was
stunned.
"It's almost a miracle,"
said Morse, chairman of the
Senate Education Subcommit
tee. One section of the pack'
age the $1.5 billion "bricks
and mortar" college aid bill
was approved by the par
ent education subcommittee
before Morse's unit had time
to recommend it.
To be reported to the Sen
ate, where bipartisan support
is expected this week are
these four bills:
The biggest single item,
a $1.5 billion program to aid
U.S. colleges and universities
in facilities const ruction,
would authorize loans up to
$120 million and grants total
ing $180 million each year.
Over the next five years, the
program would authorize $900
million in grants and $600 mil
lion in loans for four-year col
leges, and $250 million in
grants to community colleges.
While both public and pri
vate colleges would be eligi
ble for the program, the edu
cation committee did inject
limitations. Grant funds would
be limited to physical and
natural science buildings, li
braries and engineering build
ings. Some Senators, with an eye
can hear myself think

Students, Faculty Wanted
For Talent Mart Audition
Talented University stu
dents and faculty who are
willing to perform for civic,
social and church groups
throughout the year are urged
to participate in the Talent
Mart and auditions tonight,
according to Shirley Voss,
music committee chairman.
Miss Voss pointed out that
this is not a talent contest
but an audition of talent.
Each person or group of
people who audition before
the judges will have their
names placed in a brochure
which will be sent to all Lin
coln civic and school groups
and outstate groups that re
quest it.
The program office already
has several job offers which
may be filled through these
auditions. Miss Voss pointed
out that it is possible for stu
dents to earn extra money
this way.
The program office has in
the past received requests for
piano and organ accompani
ment, ventriloquists, folk sing
ers, speakers, dance bands
i.nd combos for high school
proms and other groups.
"This is the only way groups
have of knowing about Uni
versity talent," said Miss
Voss. "There is no charge for
this service unless a group
wishes a picture in the bro
chure. Students should stop in the
program office to fill out an
to a possible church-state
separation debate, were hesi
tant about grantng funds to
universities with religious ai
filiations. The limitations
were expected to prevent any
objections.
The House-Dassed version
of the same bill contains just
aoout the same limitations.
However, grants and loans in
the House bill were smaller-
totaling only $1.19 billion. If
tne senate version is passed,
as expected, a House-Senate
conference committee will
reconcile the difference.
It was noted, however, that
both aid bills did not provide
for teacher's salaries.
An expanded vocational
education bill, dubbed by
some as the "junior omnibus
education package." Broad
ened, as requested by Presi
dent Kennedy, it contains
three major items.
A four-vear Droeram of
federal matching grants to
the states to exDand voca
tional education. Included are
new authorizations totaling
$702 million in excess of the
current vocational Droeram
now costing about $55 million
a year.
A three-year estension of
the National Defense Educa
tion Act (NDEA), now run
ning abut $260 million a year.
The committee hiked the
amount of funds available for
student loans $195 million over
present levels for four years.
A three-vftar pyfonsinn of
an estimated $300 million a

tions will be accepted up un

An added attraction of the
auditions is that five acts will
be selected by the judges to
appear on the Joe Martin
Show on KOLN-TV the week
following auditions.
The judges will be Bud Hoi
loway, who owns a dance
band and is a booking agent
for bands and combos; Joe
Martin of the Joe Martin
Show; Duane Stehlik, a' grad

Sally Hove, Kosmet Klub

In expanding the vocational
education section, the com
mittee went along with the
President's civil rights rec
ommendation to provide com
mercial and industrial arts
courses benefitting Negro
children. Currently, the pro
gram is limited largely to
home economic courses.
The third bill in the big
package increases federal
matching grants for p u b 1 i c
libraries from $7.5 million to
$37.5 million, and expands it
to make urban as well as
rural areas eligible.
Faculty Members To Meet
With Omaha-Area Students
A team of 29 University of
Nebraska faculty members
will meet with Omaha area
high school students and their
parents Thursday evening
(Oct. 3) to answer questions
about college planning and
scholastic opportunities at the
University.
The meeting, arranged with
the cooperation of Omaha
area high schools, will be held
on the University of Nebraska
College of Medicine campus,
42nd and Dewey, beginning at
7:30 p.m. A second repeat con
ference session will begin at
8:20 p.m.
John E. Aronson, University
director of admissions, said
each orientation session will
be composed of 23 sectional
meetings designed to provide
information on major college
study areas such as agricul
ture, arts and sciences, engi
neering, and business admin
istration. Texas Adds
New Studies
For Students
Austin, Texas (LP.) New
courses to be introduced at
the University -of Texas this
year will take students on an
academic journey from the
ancient past to the immediate
present. Offerings will range
from a new interdepartmental
course on Old World art and
archaeology to the Mathe
matics Department's introduc
tion to computer program
ming. Other new courses which
are expected to stir great in
terest are Historian Walter
Prescott Webb's lectures on
"Topics in American Civiliza
tion" and a Philosophy De
partment course on "The Idea
of God in the Great Philosoph
ical Systems."
A total of 69 new courses
are included in the 1963-64
catalogue: 41 in arts and sci
ences, 15 in education, eight
in engineering and five in
fine arts.
In the College of Arts and
Sciences, the Departments of
Romance Languages and
Speech will introduce the
most new courses. Five of 11
additions in Romance Lan
guages reflect the depart
ment's expanded program in
Portuguese studies.
Mechanical engineering stu
dents will be sampling such
new courses as "Engineering
Statistic s," "Engineer
ing Computational Methods
and Computers" and a semi
nar in "advanced Topics
of Nonlinear Analysis."
Among three new civil en
gineering courses will be In
termediate Structures" and
"Industrial Hygiene and
Toxicology."

The fourth and final bill
would -liberalize the student
loan forgiveness law. Pro
posed by Sen. Winston Prouty,
R-Vt., the bill would permit
students who go on to teach
in private as well as public
schools to write off up to 50
per cent of any loan funds
given them while getting their
degrees.
Such a proposal was also
offered when the President
originally submitted his now
parceled omnibus education
package. x
While the House has passed
most of the vocational educa
tion bill, it has yet to act on
the NDEA extension and stu
dent loan increases.
Prior to the parent-student
meeting, the University team
will have dinner at the college
with Omaha area high school
principals and counselors of
students.
"This is the first meeting
of its kind," Aronson said,
"and the aim is to give pros
pective college students and
their parents in the Omaha
area an opportunity to discuss
plans with University faculty
people."
He said ttie faculty team
members will be prepared to
discuss general college plan
ning problems as well as those
related specifically to Univer
sity of Nebraska curriculum
and requirements.
Among the members of the
University faculty team will
be Dean Walter Militzer, arts
and sciences; Dr. Frank Eld
