Agriculture Campus Boasts Plethora Of Old Landmarks By Marv McNeff Ag News Editor A graduating class hasn't presented a memorial to the University since 1921. But the ag campus is rich in landmark memorials given prior to that date. The tradition and inspi ration attached to these me morials Is almost awesome. This has been added to in recent years by gifts to the University from private in dividuals. . For Instance, there's the statue in Ag Hall, pre sented by the class of 1915, apparently representing La dy Wisdom. North of the Department of Information Building is the Sundial pre sented by the class of 1920, in memory of World War I soldiers. However its most important part, the pointer, is missing. A landmark soon to be torn down is the Chemergy building, a versatile red brick structure built in 1904. Besides the uses its name implies, it has been City-Ag Bus Discontinued During Final Exam Week The intercampus bus will probably not run during the period of final examinations, according to Eugene Ingram, director of purchases and special services. . "Our lease with the Lincoln City Lines provides that the buses be scheduled to run only when classes are sched uled," said Ingram. "If the students would ride it, we could probably do it. How ever, if we run it for one day and they don't ride it, it could sink us." He pointed out that much of the bus use would be travel to and from the library. Cut ting down on the number of runs and running just a few times a day would probably not help this situation much, he said. "The regularly scheduled buses will still be available so the students will not be stranded," said Ingram. The regular bus will pick up students on 14th street to go to ag campus at approxi mately 8:15, 8:37, 9:05 ; 9:40, 10:15, 10:50, 11:25 and 12 in the morning and in the after noon at 12:35, 1:10, 1:45, 2:20, 255, 330, 3:55, 4:13, 4:40, 4:55, 520, 545, 6:18, 7:18, 8:18,9:18 and 10:18. It will pick up students at the ag campus bus stop on Holdrege to go to city camp us at approximately 8:15, 8:37, 9:00, 9:21, 9:50, 10:25, 11, used as an animal meats lab, husbandry engineering machinery lab, for biochem istry research and as a home economics annex. The Ag wishing well, Fount Davisson, commem orates the first principal of now-extinct School of Agri culture. The two benches near the well were donated by the classes of 1919, and 1921. The first is square and the other round.

The last games will be televised by KUON-TV. 17 in all, which border the Ag campus mall.

Located in the dean's of fice in Ag Hall is a huge four by six foot hand-stitched tapestry, donated to the Home Ec Department in 1941 by a lady from Gering. Similar to needle-point, the outdoor scene required over a year to make and is com posed of thousands of in dividual stitches. Another War memorial is' a large boulder with plaques attached donated in memory of men from the class of 1914 who were killed in the war. The bould er was obtained near Sal tillo, ' Nebraska, a whistle stop located along the Missouri-Pacific tracks south west of Lincoln. It was hauled on the railroad as close to ag campus as pos sible, and rolled the rest of the way. Approximately two-thirds of it is buried. PHOTO BY DENNIS DeFRAIN and Sundays is a little differ ent. Schedules and bus stop lo cations may be picked up on the intercampus bus or the regular bus at any time.

Ingram reported that the last total count of passengers riding the intercaniDus bus last week showed 3,465. "This may be off a little," he said. "I think it was more than this." WISHING WELL LAST OF Davisson, presented to the Ag 1919 and 1921, commemorates School of Agriculture. ' .... " j inn , I,- "l---iiim ii -r m ' . " ' ' - j HAM S IFor CCcip The Residence Association for Men (RAM) Council Man day night unanimously passed a motion recommending the "waiver of, or change in, the ruling by the Intramurals De partment concerning their re fusal to award the first place trophy in the fraternity divi sion of Indoor Track to the winning team from Kappa Al pha Psi fraternity." Gene Young, president of Kappa Alpha Psi, explained to the Council the events sur rounding his fraternity's pro test. He said that, although the fraternity was given per mission to compete in the fra ternity division, the trophy, which they won, was not awarded to them because of an Intramural Department rule that a group without a house cannot receive a trophy. Young added that Charles R. Tulloss, resident advisor of Selleck Quadrangle, where most of the fraternity's mem bers now live, has agreed to let them display the trophy in the Selleck award case un til the fraternity moves into its own house. A letter was drafted Monday night and delivered Tuesday morning to Vice Chancellor lx. Robert Ross, dean of student affairs, J. Winston Martin, AWS Announces Eligibility Change Associated Women's Stu dents (AWS) announced today that in accordance with the new University elegibility rules they have changed the necessary grade average of those who will participate in Coed Follies from a 4.0 to a 5.0.

Educator To Speak' Members of Alpha Tau Alpha, University vocational education fraternity, will hear one of the top men in the field at their meeting at 7 p.m. Thursday in the College of Ag riculture Activities Bldg.

The letter, signed by Gary Pokorny, RAM president, and Frank P a r t s c h, secretary, asked that the rule be clari fied, "to insure fairness to the men of Kappa Alpha Psi as well as anyone who might en counter this rule in the fu ture." Pokorny said that the track championship was the first campuswide honor given to the Kappa Alpha Psis and, since they are in the process of recolonization, it would be a tremendous psychological boost to the men of the fraternity. Union Contract Covers Miami Hotel Damages; Negotiations Undervky The Student Union has been charged for damages done to the Hotel Schine McAllister in Miami by Nebras ka fans attending the Orange Bowl game. The Union officials are still negotiating with the hotel concerning the amount of damage. The Hotel originally sent a bill for $480 but agreed to cut this amount in half since some of the damage could have been done by other hotel guests. The Union has written to the hotel and agreed to pay half of this second amount. No reply has yet been re ceived, according to Robert Barnes, assistant director of the Student Union.. , Carl Carlisle, program director of the Union, said that most of the damage was done by water released from fire extinguishers by the guests. Other damage was done to the paint on the walls and a door stopper wis torn off. Most of the damage was little things, said Carlisle. The Union had signed a contract previous to the trip which required that they be responsible for damage up to $1,000, according to Barnes. "The students behaved themselves very well general ly," said Barnes. "There was no trouble New Year's Eve. There were parties in the rooms the night after the game but they were generally quiet." The total expenses of the trip have not yet been com piled so the Union does not know if they will be able to cover the damage expenses without dipping into other Union funds. These figures should be available soon, said Barnes.

The new poles are counter balanced for maintenance and safety reasons. Counter-balanced poles bend so that a ladder does not have to be put up against the pole to change pulleys and ropes. The new poles are twenty feet high, weigh about five hundred pounds apiece and cost about $1,500 apiece. Bill Fisher, athletic business man ager, said that the poles are paid for from receipts from the athletic office, not taxes. Trophy Ihco Psd; Award The question of the trophy's future was somewhat simpli fied by Sigma Chi fraternity, which finished second in the track tournament and would receive the trophy if it were not given to the winners. At their Monday night meet ing, the Sigma Chis agreed that they would not accept the award if offered to them. Steve Brammer, vice presi dent of Sigma Chi, told the DAILY NEBRASKAN yester day that the members of the house felt that the trophy should go to the Kappa Alpha Psis.
