MASTERS PROGRAM:
The Best Yet
Starting Monday all interested students will have one
of the finest opportunities of the school year the Master
Program will begin.
Program Chairman John Lydik, who has handled the
project excellently and efficiently, overheard two stu
dents talking in the Crib the other day. According to the
two, the Masters Program was a group of alums who
had earned their M.A. and were coming back to the Uni
versity to talk about their jobs.
In reality, returning Masters are not necessarily hold
ers of M.A. degrees. They are interested, successful alum
ni who are respected in their profession. They are tak
ing several days away from their businesses to return to
their alma miter and talk with and to students.
This year's nine Masters are from all walks of life.
But their common interests are education and the Univer
sity of Nebraska. Their common achievements are suc
cess and respect. The program was originated last year
when five returning Masters came home for a highly suc
cessful but hectic two days.
The 1964 expanded edition of the program represents
even greater diversity and more careful thought. It rep
resents a chance for students to talk with Nebraskans who
have earned high level success in their professions and
trades.
It represents a chance for alumni to talk with students
and learn about education in the sixties. It represents a
chance for Nebraskans to feel pride in the accomplish
ments of their higher education system. It represents a
chance for all of society to benefit from a strengthened
bond between generations.
The DAILY NEBRASKAN has every reason to believe
that this year's Masters Program will be an even greater
success than the last and that future ones will be still
better.
FAMILY DEFINITION:
Petition!
Student sentiment has been running high against the
recent Lincoln City Council decision to disallow groups of
three or more unrelated students to live in certain areas
of the city.
Bob Kerrey, chairman of the Welfare Committee of
Student Council, yesterday asked students who were af
fected by the ruling to stop by the Student Council office
to sign a petition protesting the ruling.
The DAILY NEBRASKAN has opposed the ruling
since it was revealed last week. Many students have com
plained bitterly about it. A petition would certainly be the
first step in obtaining a reversal of the ruling.
Hopefully the students who have been barking will be
gin to bite at the heels of City Council. But the Welfare
Committee would have difficulty carrying the fight to City
Council by itself. A petition would put ammunition in their
guns.
The Student Council has initiated the action, but if
their fight is to be successful, the student body must sup
port them.
Jack Argued
Dr. Homer Jack spoke to
a SANE rally that was at
tended by a small group of
students, faculty members
and Nebraska Youth for
Goldwater members. H i s
speech was of vital concern
for all Americans. It clear
ly showed the stand of the
ultra-left on a fanatic binge.
I disapprove of Mr. Jack's
solution of the Viet Nam is
sue. Turning it into another
Tito's Yugoslavia is hardly
a solution. American with
drawal would only lead to
Communist takeover. Gen
eral Vo Nguyen Giap, lead
er of the Viet Cong guerril
las, said that the Commu
nists will never succumb to
neutrality. They don't want
a bite of the pie they want
it all. In the official Com
munist North Vietnamese
magazine, HOC TAP, t h e
possibility of a neutral Viet
Nam is completely rejected.
And yet. Dr. Jack and the
rest of his friends who are
in SANE wish to "neu
tralize" all Southeast Asia.
When asked about Albert
Schweitzer's statement that
the UN peace force in Ka
tanga was an international
disgrace, Dr. Jack said thai
Dr. Schweitzer was wrong.
After all, Jack went on,
Schweitzer has only lived in
Africa most of his life, but
has never been in Katanga.
Then Jack tried to prove
that he was a greater au
thority, but his proof con-

Emotionally
sisted of saying Schweitzer
was wrong. He relied on
emotionalism, not facts and
reasons.
It is too bad that certain
faculty members held Dr.
Jack's words as if they
were the Ten Command
ments. Now thousands of
students will have to listen
to the conditioned responses
so faithfully memorized by
the "moulders" of the mind.
Only fanatics could listen
and believe. Dr. Jack of
fered emotionalism at t h e
price of reason. He saw the
world through the fog of this
emotionalism b u t he chose
to remain blind to reality.
People, think.. Reason.
Listen to the "peacemak
ers" but make sure what
they are preaching is peace
and not appeasement. Lis
ten to their arguments
based on emotionalism but
remember, reason is still
supreme. ' ' '

niiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimimifiiiiiiiHHiWiS
By Bob Weaver
Governor Morrison has oft
en stated that one of the im
portant issues in the Novem
ber elections will be educa
tion for the state of Nebras
ka. This corner would go so
far as to say that the most
important issue in any gub
ernatorial election has been
and should continue to be
education and its related
topic of taxation. Recent
history has shown, however,
that candidates have failed
to address themselves to
these issues.
One need not recite the
inadequacies of Nebraska
elementary, secondary, vo
cational and college educa
tion. Citizens and educators
have illustrated this growing
need for many years.
The first crop of war chil
dren will begin college this
fall. At the University of Ne
braska a new shortage of
classroom space will face
administrators next fall
when enrollment is conserv
atively estimated to be at
13.000 a jump of 2.000 from
this year. The state colleges
are echoing the plight of
the University.
To date no provision has
been made through legisla
tive action for new class
room space or any other ex
pansion of college facilities
to meet growing present and
future needs. It becomes
the administration's respon
sibility with the main effort
coming from the Board of
Regents to inform the leg
islature and, more specific
ally, the Budget Committee
as to the needs of the Uni
versity. It then becomes the indi
vidual legislator's responsi
bility to adequately ac
quaint himself with those
needs and provide for them.
Has this been done to date?
One would have to say that
our all too prudent legisla
ture is either uninformed or
unable to comprehend the
importance of higher edu
cation in the state.
This problem extends into
elementary and secondary
education also. With 2,900
school districts, most of
which arc minor accredited
or only approved, Nebraska
school children, are receiv
ing an inferior education in
many communities. Many
problems involving quality
are tied to the need for
school district reorganiza
tion. Local individuals have
seen the increase in taxes to
be the prime reason for' op
posing redisricting.
" Certain groups such as the
Nebraska School Improve
ment Association (NSIA)
have clouded this issue with
J I v -Si
half-truths and by misrepre
senting the aims of and
facts behind consolidation.
They have consistently done
a disservice to education,
schoolchildren, and every
clear-thinking Nebraska cit
izen of the past, present
and future.
Many of the above points
were emphasized at the re
cent Governor's Conference
on Education. The spring
meeting culminated a series
of district meetings held this
past winter and a state con
ference last October.
The purposes of the con
ferences were: 1) to inform
citizens, through study and
discussion, concerning the
needs of education: (2) to
improve educational oppor
tunities for boys and girls,
and (3) to get public opinion
in regard to the kind of
schools Nebraskans are
willing to supoprt.
Questionaires were pro
vided so that participants
might express their views
on this issue. The results of
the latest meeting were a
set of recommendations sub
mitted to the governor
which included: ) a state
wide organization should be

CHSGK THE T N T DEAli ON CHEVROLET
Shades of Minerva! A
little excitement visits our
limp campus, and no one
even makes an issue of it.
Large red dots appeared on
certain houses, and what did
everyone do? Blamed it on
hemorrhaging pigeons.
But this all raises several
interesting questions. The
first is about excitement,
and the second is about
pigeons.
Pigeons are a rather mes
sy thing, completely devoid
of manners or shyness, so
we'll avoid the whole sub
ject. Everyone knows what
happens to them anyway.
Campus cooks set snares
with their hair nets and
serve the birds as fried
chicken.
The other thing about
excitement, is more in
teresting. There are many
different kinds of excite
ment. At this point, I
need warn those reading
with large round eyes and
those wetting their lips to
brace themselves for a dis
appointment. It's an edi
torial policy not to mention
sex.
One kind of excitement is
that which you experience
when a member of the Stu
dent Tribunal points at you
and laughs. Another type
is when the dean of your
college and a professor point
at you and laugh. A third
type is when your blind
date points at you and
laughs.
Mob violence is exciting.
Somedav, a chapter of
CORE (Coeds of Rollicking
i.'umc tax would remove that
block.
The conclusions which can
be drawn from this series
of educational conferences
include :
1) Nebraskans are not in
formed as to the needs of
education.
2) An inequitable property
tax stymies advancements
in school district reorgani
zation. 5) Those individuals pos

Ethics) will be established
at NU, and there will be sit
ins, stand-ins, flush-ins, cry
ins, date-ins and sign-ins to
repel AWS rules governing
women.
There it is 3,000 worn
men, armed with h a
spray and electric tooth
brushes, screaming, "V
don't want late minutes, we
want late hours," or "AWS

Anyone who has ever
been campused for a week
end will lend their willing
support. The experience of
sitting in a small room
with nothing to do but
breathe humid, stuffy air for
three nights is enough to
bring sweat rings to t h e
bravest. It's not unlike
social constipation.
But, as the smoking wit
said, I digress.
One rather lovely form of
excitement is to have a
senior check run for you.
This, in essence, is about as
profitable as betting on the
white rat races held in the
basement of the Soc build
ings on Thursday evenings.
It appears I have "run
the gauntlet" of forms
of excitement, without
becoming racy, and I can't
afford that. They might
not let me on the "Red
Ryder." (Which is ex
citing, too, when you take
the only seat left, and it
happens to be by an Ag
senior who spent the morn
ing cleaning out the barns."
Well, there's always the
pigeons. Plop.
N.S...
tions must make those facts
more readily available to lo
cal citizens groups and the
legislature.
4) Nebraskans and their
representatives in state and
local government must act
upon those needs and facts
once they are brought to
light.
Local groups and individ
uals want to retain control
of their own schools. Yet it
is to be noted that those in
dividuals have not assumed
that responsibility. The
