Informal' Does Not
Miami
By SUSAN SMITHBERGER
Senior Staff Writer
Students are beginning to
frantically contemplate exact
ly what to cram into the
small spaces of a suitcase to
take to the big game in Mi
ami. Some are at a loss as
to the weight of clothing worn
there and temperatures to ex
pect. "The people down there
dress informally," said a rep
resentative of a Lincoln trav
el agency. "They do not dress
real formally." It should be
clarified that informally does
not have the connotation of
grubbies that it does here on
campus. The residents do
wear short sleeved shirts and
bermudas a lot.
"I would recommend light
weight woolens and summer
clothes," said a representa
tive of another Lincoln travel
agency. "This docs not
mean white shoes."
The men should take light
weight summer suits, accord
ing to the representative.
"They wear bermudas a lot
on the beach but not in Mi
ami proper," she said.
"Students should remember
that Miami has the jump on
next summer's fashions,"
said the representatives.
"They should leave a little
extra room in their suitcases
and take a little extra money
to purchase a few summer
clothes."
"I would think they would
want to wear a light weight
wool suit to the game," she
said. "They will probably
need a sweater or maybe a
light wrap because it gets
cooler in the evening."
The temperatures there will
be around 65-70 degrees dur
ing the day and cooler in the
evening. Students will of
course want to take a swim
ming suit for a free, mid
winter dip in the salty ocean.
Those wishing to stay away
from the sand and salt may
find a swimming pool at their
hotel.
Students desiring to take
part in night life should take
something dressy, otherwise
formal wear will not be re
quired. The women there do
not wear sun-back dresses
either in the evening or dur
ing the day.
Concerning the 40-p o u n d
limit on baggage of students
going by plane, one big suit
case and an overnight case
should meet the requirement.
Oh yes, a Spanish diction
ary receives a big "si."

The University Board of Re
gents met with the members
of legislative committee on
higher education yesterday
and discussed the advisabili
ty of changing the present
form of University and State
Teachers College control.
Sen. Marvin Stromer, chair
man of the committee, an
nounced that his committee
has undergone a comprehen
sive study of the types of con
trol used in other states and
is in the process of meeting
with the boards concerned to
evaluate their opinion on the
matter.
He said that in order to
make a change, if any, the
legislature must have a firm
basis for the reorganization.
Regent Val Petersen in
dicated that the new board, if
created, must be a far-seeing
project rather than a tempo
rary union of the two present
boards. "Perhaps we should
abolish both boards and start
all over," he said.
The question was raised as
to whether a reorganization
of the higher educational
system in the state should in
clude junior colleges. Both
Petersen and Chancellor Clif
ford Hardin indicated that this
would be undesirable without
more state support of these
institutions.
As to whether a new hoard
ishoUl4 be electedt ; or, appoin-
ii ve, the opinion was not
clear. As Peterson put it,
The answer varies with the
wind." He indicated that the
question is whether a position
Copying Machine Prevents
Mistakes, Works Rapidly
One of the latest developments in photocopying ma
chines, the Xerox Photocopying Machine, has become
useful for students and faculty here.
According to Lloyd Osterman, administrative librar
ian, the machine, which is leased from the Xerox Com
pany, is saving time and preventing mistakes that stu
dents and faculty may make if they would copy the ma
terial themselves.
"Graphs, charts, articles, lists, notes and other ma
terial can be reproduced accurately and inexpensively by
the photocopying machine," Osterman said.
The machine has been in Love Library since March.
In that time, according to Osterman, it has proved its
worth to the students and faculty by doing five times
as much work as it did the first few weeks after it was
leased.
Osterman explained the principle the machine works
on is that of ion exchange. It employs lenses, ion ex
change, and black plastic dust which melts to produce
the black on white figuration that is reproduced by the
machine. Heat used to melt and fuse the black plastic
dust on to the copy paper.
Bowl Game To Draw
Over 7,000 To Miami
By AL BRANDT
Junior Staff Writer
Christmas vacation will
turn into a second football
migration for many NU stu
dents, fans and alumni.
According to the ticket of
fice 7,250 tickets have al
ready been sold and 1,000
more have been ordered. This
is 86 times as many tickets
as 128 Nebraska fans and stu
dents purchased for the 1955
Orange Bowl game between
Nebraska and Duke.
Transportation to Miami
will vary. The Lincoln Tour
and Travel Agency, which is
handling the Union trip, said
that besides the two Union
planes there will be three
alumni planes, an independ
ent plane and probably two
planes from Omaha.
A total of 600 people, plus
those from Omaha, will be
going by plane or bus. Many
others wilj be driving down
singly or in groups.
Activities for Nebraska fans
will be many. The Alumni
Association has two sched
uled events for all Nebraska
fans. On New Year's Eve a
social hour will' be held in the
ballroom of the Everglade
Hotel. On New Year's Day a
bruch will be held at. the
Harbour Inn in Bal Harbour,
Fla., starting at 9 a.m.
Also, on New Year's Day a
pep rally will be held at the
Miami University field house
to welcome the Huskers. The
time and location of the pep
rally will be announced in the
Miami newspapers.,

on the board should be above
politics or if it should rest
closer to the v oters.
He added that Nebraska
governors have no history of
direct control of higher edu
cation. In the business meeting
which followed the discussion,
the Board approved low bids
totaling $3,439,896 for the con
struction of a new dormitory,
which will be ready for occu-
p a n c y in 1965. The Regents
expressed delight at the low
ness of the bids and the quali
ty of the plans for the build
ing. Business Manager Carl
Donaldson announced that the
new dormitory will have a
12.8 per cent increase in stu
dent room space over the
units planned in 1961.
Other increases in space
listed by Donaldson were 12
per cent, corridors; 77 per
cent, upstairs; lounges 345
per cent, main floor lounges
and 42 per cent, recreational
areas.
The Regents approved an
agreement whereby the Ne
braska Educational Television
Commission will ' reimburse
the University for services in
volved in the operation of the
ETV network, including staff
members of the University
and other services.'
