mm YG's Invite Open Campaign mm m 1 I I I 3 ' 3 4 'J 1 a -, v. -1 '! s 4 Page 2 Wednesday, March 25, 1964 FROM THE YR'S: A Good Sign In a Feb. 12 editorial the DAILY NEBRASKAN said that there was a push from the youth for Goldwater Club to take over in total the University's Young Republicans. Further, it said that the young Goldwaterites would enter stand-by conservative Steve Stastny for the presi dential seat of the YR's come election time and after he was elected, if he were, would take a stand support ing Barry Goldwater for President before the national party had even set a clear path to the California con vention. Chuck Peek, president of the YR's at the time, main tained that the group should serve more of an educational function and that after the national convention it should partially switch to a campaign organization. Otherwise, the club ran the risk of being foolish and being weakened. The editor stood with Peek on the problem, but the editorial was discredited by young Goldwaterites them selves and Chuck Marr, a member of the state Goldwater organization, attempted to personally abash the editor and his editorial as funny. Now it is time to say happily, 4,I told you so." What happened at elections this past week? The young Goldwaterites entered past YR President and Goldwaterite Steve Stastny. And they still maintain that open campaigning early in the game would not weaken or misrepresent the pur pose of the University's YR's. Luckily, however, that was not the consensus at elec tions. A Young Republican who refuses to switch the YR's to campaigning just yet, Bill Harding, was elected. The Young Goldwaterites did win with two candidates for of fice, but did not capture the leadership of the YR's. Peek, Harding, and the educational principle of cam pus politics won out. And the campus YR's have proved themselves a credit to the national GOP. Both factors " are heartening. a jaundiced eye By Susan Stanley Wolk guilty and guiltless mother. A highly publicized, sold-out-and-held-over University Theater production of "Hamlet" kept this particu lar audience member en thralled for about one-fourth of its three hours-plus Sun day night. Curiously, it was the min or players who shone the brightest. Tom Crawley, as Hamlet, seemed confused and was confusing. At the play's opening, he seemed to be a sincere but troubled adoles cent, who could find happi ness with Clearasil. A com pletely overdone theatrical ity caused him to hit emo tional heights early, as he grimaced, picked lint off bis doublet, and looked really a great deal madder than the "o'er-hasty" marriage of his mother and uncle might have caused him to be. Throughout, Crawley seemed to leave out the ele ment of suspense which is so integral to the play's vir tue be always seemed to know precisely what was coming next (though this may have appeared so be cause, like all cornfed Ne braskans, I had to read the Review thing three timet be fore 1 was allowed to graduate from high school). And speaking of corn there was plenty of that la the overwrought postur logs which Director Wil liam Morgan had our troub led hero go through. By the time the players, I e d by Andy Backer, entered, Backer's supposedly exag gerated thespian gestures hardly seemed on a level different from that which we'd already been subjected to. Yet, there were some very, very bright spots in Crawley's performance. Chief among these were the scenes in which he was engaged in rhetorical bat tles with other characters. When Hamlet was feigning madness, Crawley was at bis best. But when he was delivering a speech which has become famous (e.g. "To be or not to be . . .," ad nause ura), he seemed eager to toss off the lines as quickly as possible, because, after all, bow are you supposed to say these words, and like that ... but occasionally, he was very moving, and even let us forget that he was Tom Crawley playing Hamlet Pat Patterson's Gertrude was good if unvarying. She was at once warm, sensuous and motherly, managing to convey merely by radiating it the qualities of Hamlet's Lovely Sandra Watkins was eerily frail and eman ated a sweet confusion as Ophelia. But how in the world did she learn all those filthy songs to sing in her mad scene? Which she did, incidentally, beautiful ly. Bob Hall was outstanding as the old goat Polonius. The audience was not made aware that he was acting ... the mark of a good ac tor. He was perfect as the doddering, foolish father, giving advice to Laertes. . .And speak of Laertes . . . Gary Gue was less than ideal in the role, seeming to lack the strength in many ways to be at all convinc ing. When John Guinty, as King Claudius, was partici pating in a serious scene, he was all right ... but when he was give the op portunity to have a humor ous reaction, he w a s a delight. An interesting facet of Morgan's "Hamlet" was the unusual stress upon the po tential humor in the p 1 a y, which is usually not brought out. What might often be dull and -ponderous was made much more enjoyable for this. And yet, what seemed to be misting from the evening was any sort f "overwhelming question" just what 4a the bell was Our Boy Home From Col lege doing thinking about suicide? The play seemed, in the muddle of things, to lose any real point and three and one-half hours is a long time to spend watch ing what seemed to be pointless. Much of the play's redem tion was in the performan ces of minor players. For instance, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, played by Leo Caito and John RoehL were right straight from vaude ville ("Absolutely, Mr. Ro zencrantz?" "Positively, Mr. Guildenstern!"), and were most interesting to watch. Raymond Stanek was someone else to keep an eye on, doing particularly well as Osric. Curtiss Greene as the Gravedigger, and And y Backer, as both the Ghost and Player King, were also excellent. An unfortunate casting was Terry Hinz in the role of Forinbras. As be was in both appearance and voice qualities, be assured that the play did not end on a strong note. Technically the shot was well handled. A revolving stage, designed by Charles Howard, was fascinating al most to the point of exclud ing other things from enter ing the audience's mind. font' on Page 3 Dear Editor: The Youth for Goldwater Club is happy to note that the two f i n e YR Presiden tial candidates went on rec ord a opposing endorse ment of a Republican presi dential nominee by the YR club. Both Mark Anderson and Bill Harding saw that this kind of action could on ly divide the club. We hope .the club members realize, as the winning candidate said, that an endorsement of a particular candidate could endanger the YR charter. The Youth for Goldwater Club invites all those who favor other candidates to form clubs and campaign in the same open manner that we do. We do not be lieve the Republican Party can be hurt by a spirited contest. Let all those who favor a particular candi date take their case to tho people and they will decide in the May 12 Primary.

Board Committee Works All Year BY DAMN, THETU, KHoW THEY'VE BEEU IK A FteUT" Firetruck: Robinson Sends Model Pledge Program By Arnie Garson "Rewards are better than punishments." " . . .expec tations of the pledge are high." "Treat pledges as individuals not sheep." When Ted Robinson, dean of men at Iowa State, visited the University last month, he was critical of some pledge programs and at the same time expressed genu ine confidence that fraterni ties were sincerely inter ested in bettering their pledge programs. When I a s k e d Robinson how he would go about de signing a model pledge train ing program, he promised to send me a copy of one .which was prepared by the Office of the Dean of Stu dents at Iowa State. The above comments are "max ims" In Iowa State's Model Pledge Education Program which has just reached me via Robinson and Bob Wea ver. Idealogically, the program makes a lot of sense. It outlines specific procedures and goals for pledge meet ings, pledge duties, acade mic achievement, social life and punishment. The Pledge meeting pro cedure includes using facul ty, alumni, panel discussions and seminars to acquaint the pledge with the goals of the university relative to the Greek system and with the pledges' place in the frater nity. Under the model, a pledge evaluation board, composed of a maximum of three of the most respected actives in the house, would deal w ith Individual pledge problems. The Instructions for nth a board are: Talk with the pledge frankly and spe cifically about bis short comings, set a time for re view of Us ease and state what Is expected in behavi orial changes by that time as well as Indicating what actions can bring bis im mediate depledglng. Disciplinary measure would include verbal repri manding, extra work assign ments in the house and cam pusing. A maximum of one half hour per pledge per day is recommended for pledge duties. This does not include general weekly cleaning as signments. In conclusion, the plan points out that it is import ant to devise a complete pledge education program, put it in writing, commit yourself to it and give it a chance to work. Periodic evaluation and modification are also emphasized. Yes, there is a chance that the plan would not work at all. But none can deny that the existing trend of physical and mental de gradation must be altered if fraternities are to survive. And for those houses which are wondering how to go about it, the Iowa State plan is a solid foundation on which to build. In practice, modifications will surely have to be made to suit each individual house no two houses have the same strengths and weak nesses. Similar plans have been developed on other campuses and by a few houses at the University. All are available through the IFC to anyone interested. And the challenge of the future which now faces fraternities requires not only interest, but action. Dear Editor : The parking commit tee does not transact i t s business during one meeting of the year. On Oct. 9, 1963, we pre sented a resolution "r e c ommending the installation of a scatter light system at the intersection of 14th and S Streets." This resolution was passed by the Student Council and supported by Administrative officials. The city could not program such an installation into its bud get at that time. Action was delayed this spring pending announcement of the route of the Northeast Diagonal The city felt such a lighting system would not be nec essary with arterial traffic removal from 14th Street. Figures supplied us by the University showed that parking facilities will ade quately supply increased de mand for parking during the next few years. Therefore, we recommended in Janu ary that all students could be given parking privileges. The students who miscon strued enforcement hours as to red and green line park ing evidenced no snickering when denied an appeal based on a misunderstanding of enforcement hours. The number of such cases sug g e s t e d that clarification would be in order. We invite Mr. Garson to our next meeting to consid er not only the thought and and study necessary for parking problems but a 1 s o the care that should be tak en in driving FIRETRUCKS. A word of caution "Even FIRETRUCKS cannot park on red lines at any time." Gary Oye Steve Brammer Jim Klines Buzz Brashear The committee assumes no responsibility in the area of campus beautification but did report in January that no multi-level or underground parking facilities were planned by Administration due to excessive cost.

MAN or a MISS LAUREN WINS COVETED AFFLERBACH FELLOWSHIP! AFTER what is possibly the world's record rumination over who won a color-naming competition "we have reached a decision. If you can remember that far back, more than a year ago we de plored the uninspired names given to colors (light green, dark blue, etc.) as well as the sheer flights of fancy that conveyed nothing at all (Kumquat Blossom Time, December Showers, Teaneck, etc.). We asked your assistance in conjuring up new, evocative names for shirt colors, but names that also had some connection with reality; such as Whizzer White, Well Red, Navel Orange, and so on. To make the enterprise more tempting we dangled a Grand Prize of a Traveling Afflerbach Fellowship: a glamorous weekend at Quakertown, Pa., our HQ (with a free sightseeing trip into romantic Philadelphia), or a dozen Eagle Shirts. Additionally, there were 9 Stationary Afflerbachs of 12 dozen Eagle Shirts offered as second prizes. Well, here it is: The winner is none other than either W. R. Goodwin of No. Caldwell, N. J. or Janet Lauren of New York, N. Y.! They were so close, which is what held us up, that they both win the grand prize. Second prize winners will be notified by mail. Congratulations, all! Among the thousands and thousands of splendid names submitted some of which we shall surely use were the following: lOWW MUBM. adMar.l ABN1E fiHtWM, nstiactajl Urt BVtUUi ftMj'l HHEfc4,f a, iifi ur; raajiw r ami hoi, kick to, tmur atatf wnlersi KAr VMU, jrm rn i ., kakhaka hke- nr.t. rtiMM-k mu. wajxm XW.tM, 1JLAWI RINCK. iunwr aU4f arHrrsi BiCMAfeO JAI,BrT, ItALE MAJKK.
