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.

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.

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."

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. Fur
ther, we did not recom-
mend U,at they be so con- Ab .f Letters
UlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllljlfflllllllllllllllllllU
The regulations state, "No
car may be parked on the
campus without a permit."
Those students using cam
pus parking facilities with
out a permit soon find them
selves paying more than the
permit fee in fines.

Eagle Shirtmakers Proudly Announces
NO. CALDWELL, N. J. 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:
