CXH5EI fflDKHD Thursday, PASSED, BUT DEFEATED: Migrafion Move And. then sometimes you have to wonder about the unusual situations that Student Council sometimes wiggles itself into. Yesterday, Council "the supreme student governing body," in the interest of promoting school spirit urged all students to attend the game at the University of Missouri this weekend. In grandiose terminology (the dialect in which most - resolutions are written) the motion explained that all students would be admitted who presented themselves at the fate. In urging the student body to attend the Missouri game which is ordinarily called migration by most Nebraskans, the Council is in efefct supporting or sponsoring migration. The resolution was capped by a rather interesting ancedote which came in the form of an amendment made . by Student Council Vice President Dick Weill. His amendment read: "This (the resolution) is not to imply that Student Council is sponsoring an official migra tion." The resolution though passed, in effect, was defeated. GARY LACEY ii mi in I ii iiiuim ill hi Mil i. mm . ii ii mm Case For Responsibility? Dear Editor: . Several articles in the last few days have mentioned "responsibility." As far as the Daily Nebraska's con( cerned this word has be come somewhat of a myth. Does the Nebraskan claim to be responsible? Respon sible journalism would seem to entail accurate and thorough reporting of af fairs and events, evaluating their importance and sig nificance and placing them in their proper perspective, and refraining from pub lishing articles based on faulty judgment, lack of facts and depth of under standing. As an average student I do not pretend or claim to be a newspaper critic. But I have been misinformed and misled by news arti cles, headlines and edito rials in recent editions. In citing a few examples I would ask: 1. Did Lynn Corcoran and Steve Sydow show mature and careful thought in ap praising discrimination on this campus? 2. Is "Big Iron's" pin ning of special University interest? 3. When was the AWS Activities Mart finally held? 4. Do we have to be in formed of the Alpha Lamb da Delta pledges twice? 5. Was it the final de cision of the Rally Com mittee to prohibit the CU band from playing their song as was initially report ed in the Nebraskan? Students have tolerated lncompetarcy thus far. However, after reading the follow-up on Homecoming I for one can take it no long er. The coverage of the Homecoming Queen was not only a regretful farce but a disgrace to our de serving Queen. Human in terest is one thing but isn't Lhk carrying it a little too far?

II in I "Will temi rag Oct. 31, 1963 laundry? Students who have not had the opportunity to meet our Homecoming Queen still know little about her now. Were there any attendants this year? As suming the girl in the pic ture on the front page of Monday's Nebraskan is the Queen, who is standing be side her? Did anyone at tend the Homecoming Dance? Turning to the editorial page, other questions come to mind. Do the columnists have a sincere interest in expressing their views or are they merely trying to create issues? To err is human but there have been too many mis takes, omissions and mis representations. Think what the University community wants and needs to read, Nebraskan staff. Are you failing in your responsibili ty to reflect and report ac curately campus events and opinions? Respectfully submitted, Susie Pierce EDITOR'S NOTE: The staff thanks you for your criticisms, but believes the majority of them to be ill taken. Dorm Rates The news of the ten per cent increases in dorm rates was brought to my attention about 11:20 Monday morn ing. That whispered conver sation in class proved two points: 1) The only way to stay awake in my eleven o'clock class is to read the Nebraskan. 2) The idea of raised dorm rates isn't go ing to go over very big. It will be interesting to note the students' reactions. (The first comment I heard was ... "If that's the way they want it, they can keep their . dorms."") Monday night I called six teen organized mens' Louses to compare monthly house bills. The new dorm rates will be around $92 per month. The average among the sixteen houses was about $89. I think the figures are close enough to question the truth of the statement that living in a University dorm is less expensive than living in an organized house. Let's face it, anything over $90.00 per month for room and board is a large s t a c k of money. Maybe we should ask where it is all going. More unofficial statistics: Monthly house bills: Delta Sigma Phi,$82; Delta Sigma Pi, $75; Brown Palace Co-op, $56. These figures are no where near the dorm rates! Makes you doubt the ef ficiency of somebody some where. Any comments? A Student I jS'n JtI A W&tWwA v V """l ,.. - ..... ... .. A: The Right Way Promises, promises! Dur ' the 1960 Presidential Campaign, Senator John F. Kennedy made many prom ises. President John F. Ken nedy has not kept a great number of these promises. "I value the American belief that the checks and balances required by our system were written into the Constitution.' So said JFK on August 24 while campaigning in Alexand ria, Va. Kennedy since has called the Constitution a document written for an other age,, and his aides re fer to it as "archaic." His advisors call Congress a stumbling block and raise questions about the desir ability of having Congress control spending as the Con stitution directs. On Sept. 1, JFK said that the members of the House should decide what the House rules should be. How ever, Kennedy has used threats, patronage, and promises to expand the House rules committee with members favorable to his program. Kennedy assailed the high interest rate policy in home financing and suggested the adoption of fiscal policies to stimulate growth. Sept. '5 Since then the Kennedy Ad ministration has raised the FHA interest rate, extended mortgage terms so that a taxpayer buying a home will pay more than the original purchase price in interest payments.

(Sept. 23) After Robert Kennedy's repeated efforts to nail Hoffa in court, he still reigps as head of the Teamsters Union. On Oct. 12, JFK said that our balance of payments will be strong and that, "we can cease to worry about the outflow of gold." Under Ken nedy, our balance of pay ments has steadily wors ened, the outflow of gold has accelerated to such a dan gerous point that other na tions are worried about the value of the U.S. dollar. Also on Oct. 12, while dis of troops at Little Rock, JFK said, "There is more power in the'Presidency than to let things drift and then sudden ly to call out the troops." Kennedy allowed things to drift at "Ole Miss", then suddenly rushed troops into Oxford, who violated the civil rights of many Ameri cans in the vicinity. At Miami Beach, on Oct. 18, Kennedy stated that we should not appoint ambas sadors and others just be cause they have contribuged to a political campaign.

Typical is . Matthew McCloskey, Am bassador to Ireland, who as treasurer of the Democrat Party grew fat on Federal . building contracts. "I am not promising ac tion in the first 100 days aline I am promising you one thousand days of exact ing Presidential leadership. I want to be a President who believes in working full time." (Nov. 5) In his first two years of office along, JFK had been away from the White House 215 days, al most one-third of the time, vacationing, yachting, etc. at Hyannisport, Palm Beach, Newport, Glen Ora, and elsewhere. These are only a small number of the approximate ly 500 major campaign promises which Kennedy made in his 1960 campaign. Since he has kept but a frac tion of these pledges, it ap pears that promises mean one thing and performance another! 'THE BEST" WITH CAS PURCHASE P Sts.

Q3 I WAS A TEEN-AGE SLIDE RULE In a recent lenmed journal (Playlxty) the r!itinrui1ipd board chairman (Ralph "Hot Lips'' Sipafoos) of top of our mot important American industrial corporations (the Arf Mechan ical Mop Co.) wrote a trenchant article in which he pinpointed our single mort neriou-; national prolJem: the lack of culture among science praduat. I-iet me hasten to state that Mr. SiirafoosV article was in do tense derogatory. He Kaid emphatically that the science grad uate, .what with his gruelling curriculum in physics, math, and chemistry, can hardly lie exjiected to find time to study the arts too. What distresses Mr. Sipafoos and. indeed, all of us is the lopsided result of today'? science courses; graduates who can build a skyscrajier hut can't compose a concerto: who Inow Newton's Third Law hut not Beethoven's Fourth Svm- WW ImJea 'mlt phony; who are familiar with Fraunhofer's lines but not with Hhelley'is. Mr. Kigafoos can find no solution to this lamentable imbal ance. I, however, believe there is oue-and a very simple one It is this: if students of science don't have time to come to the arts, then the arts must come to students of science. For example, it would be a very easy thing to teach jtnetrr and music right along with physics. Students, instead of being called upon merely to recite, would instead be required to rhyme their answers and set them to familiar tunes-like, for instance, the stirring Cokmd Bogey March. Thus recitation, would not only be chock-a-block with important fact but would, at the same time, expose the students to the aesthetic delights of great poetry and music. Here, try it yourself. Von all know Th Cvhmi bogey March. Come, sing along with me: Phytic It vfud we lmrn in dam, Eituttfiti SaiA rriergy u mass. SnaUm 1 M-gh-foJvUn' Aid Pwcaft rased. ,V Boyle. Do you see how much more Lroadening, how much more up hftii!? it is to learn physics this way? Of course you do. Whatf lou want another chorus? By all meant: Leydeii lie made Leyden jeir. Trolley He made Due. Trolley car. Curie Rode in a currey And bietsd'i a wtxuel. So'i Boyle. Once the student has mastered TV C'oW Bogey March, he can go on to more complicated melodies like Death aid Trans Jtaiiratum, SiMrm Tom. and Boo-Hoo.
