Dutch
By BARRY ABRAMS
Junior Staff Writer
Kees Smelt, a Dutchman
from Eindhoven, Netherlands,
looked around the small tav
ern, "This is a most pleasant
place, more Euorpean, and
not all metal and commercial
like most American places,"
he said.
This was one of the few ne
gative differences Smelt not
ed about the United States.
Smelt, a 22 year old student,
is t a k i n g one journalism
course at the University. His
interest in television brought
him to America and a rela
tion made the trip possible.
He was able to get a job at
KOLN TV in order to get a
closer look at the American
way of broadcasting.
The schools Smelt attended
in the Netherlands have a dif
ferent curriculum from the
schools here. There are three
kinds of high schools includ
ing a school for girls; a class
ics school, where the classic
languages are taught and a
regular high school that most
of the students attend.
The first year in regular
high school consists of Dutch,
French, English, math, phy
sics and geography. The sec
ond and third year German is
added to this course. After
three years the student may

may select slow, average, or
gifted learners during partici
pation in the program.
Members of the program
work toward a mutual under
standing with the elementary
students. Members also under
take to give additional help
to correct problems in some
special area or to further ex
pand and intensify the young
learner's interest in one area.
Mortar Boards Selling
Homecoming Mums
Homecoming mums will be
sold next week by the Mortar
Boards. Each Mortar Board
is assigned to an organized
house, and will contact that
house during the week to sell
mums.
The mums, which cost one
dollar will also be sold in the
Student Union.
They will be delivered any
where on campus Saturday.
Lincoln students may pick up
their mums at the Union.
The money raised from this
program will go to the Mortar
Board scholarship funds.

On high ethics and morali
ty in government, Thone
said, "I like to think of the
TFX contracts, Bobby Baker
and Billy Sol Estes as the
Lone Star Trio. The Repub
licans will not stand for peo
ple such as these. They have
ousted many before and will
do it again."
Thone discussed the vitality
of educational excellence.
"This is no expense," he
said. "It is an investment."
He called for stepped up re
search. "There's tremendous
opportunity here. It brings
about industrial develop
ment." Other points discussed by
Thone were strong labor and
business, upholding freedom
in both labor and business,
with little government inter
vention; a Communist party
intelligently recognized for
what it is, a group that
"wants to overtake the coun
try;" development of all re
sources, adequate recreation
facilities, industrial develop
ment, traffic safety, job re
training.
On industrial development,
Thone said, "Frank (Morri
son) talks a lot about it but
there are 7000 less employed
people in the state now."

braska moving, but we ask
in which way are we mov

branch off into either physics
and math or commerce.
Smelt was taught electron
ics at what is known as a
technical high school. It is
more like a university except
languages are not taught," he
said.
Dating customs are about
the same, but football is dif
ferent in the Netherlands. It
is the same form of football
played everywhere in Europe
except England, Smelt said.
The main differences are a
round ball and no pads. The
game is not as rough as the
American version.
Sailing is also a major
sport and Smelt recalls go
ing to a sailing school during
vacation. The school is called
Vossenhol and is located on
Lake Kagerplassen. Both the
theory and practice of sailing
are taught for one week dur-
ing which the student lives at
the school. The price is 100
guilders or about $27.
The broadcasting industries
of the two countries are the
most vivid difference, Smelt
observed. In the Netherlands
there is no legal commercial
radio and television. The citi
zens pay taxes amounting to
about $10 a year for televi
sion and $5 for radio. Radio
has broadcast all day while
television is only on from 7
p.m. to 12 p.m.
There are five groups that
may broadcast in the Nether
Ian h. These are KRO, the
Catholic broadcasting group;
AVRO, the general united
broadcasting group; VARA,
the socialist laborers radio
amateurs group; NCRV, the
Dutch Christian group and
VPRO, the united Protestant
group. NRU is the Dutch
Radio Union which is respon
sible for the news broadcast.
Because there are only two
transmitters, afr time is split
up between the five groups.
"There is little music and
much talking. Many Dutch
men do not like the group set
up," Smelt said.
The most popular radio and
television stations in the Ne
therlands are the illegal sta
tions that operate from ships
and Islands outside territorial
waters. Radio Veronica is the
best of the illegal and broad
casts music and r -nmerclals
all day. It is located on a ship
carrying a 20 kilowatt trans
mitter and is able to beam to
about half the country.

from going to the Byrds," he
quipped.
"All the noise we hear is
about whether people like or
don't like Goldwater," he
said. "Not many are enthused
about Johnson . . . Even the
Democrats feel he is a wheeler-dealer."
Usher defended Goldwater's
stand on social security, say
ing that Goldwater will
strengthen the social security
program by strengthening the
dollar.
In answer to the charge by
Democrats that Goldwater
will take the nation into war,
Usher said, "weakness breeds
war, not strength. We will
have peace only through
strength. There have always
been bullies and we must
stand up for our rights."
"Goldwater has worked
long and hard supporting the
Republican part y," Usher
said. "He is in the main
stream because he was nomi
nated by the mainstream,
which is the people."
Bill Harding, president,
added "No one changes prin
ciples, they compromise
them, until there is no longer
a principle. In the case of
Johnson, they didn't change
his principle, just deleted it.
The Young Republicans will
sponsor a parade through
downtown Lincoln Oct. 22, led

Study Skills Initiates
New Lecturing Plan

Junior Staff Writer
A new "laboratory" for

to the Study Skills program
this fall.

These high schoolers repre
senting schools from all
over the state, will present a

Only ten bands attended the
first Band Day held in 1939.
It was originated by Don
Lentz and John Selleck to bol
ster sagging attendance. Dur
ing World War II, the pro
gram was discontinued, but,
since 1946 more and more
bands have sought invitations.
Lentz, now director of
the University bands and
Band Day, said that a parade
through Lincoln will begin at
9:30 a.m. tomorrow.
The parade will begin at
10th & O and go east to 14th
& O, from there it will go
to 14th & R, and end up at
12th Si R. Television cameras
will cover the program from
the 12th & R location.
The Band Day operations
will eliminate 66 parking
places on Vine St. Capt. Eu

sity Police said that since
Vine is the only route avail
able for traffic from the north
east, no parking will be al

routes will be closed because
of the busses for the band

scheduled lectures which last
the first month of school.
In the past, the study skills
program consisted only of the
four lectures, and the fresh
man had many unanswered
questions and concerns.
About 800 freshman and up
perclassmen are registered
for study skills. The courses
are non-credit and are
planned in pre-registration. If
a student wishes to take the
course after he arrives on
campus, he may go through
normal add procedure.
Freshman are told about
the program in summer orien
tation sessions, and through
high school conferences.
The course of study In the
study skills classes may in
volve techniques of reading a
textbook, how to go about
studying, and what it takes
to be a learner.
"We would like to have the
students establish the frame
of mind to do this type of ac
tivity," said J. Winston Mar
tin, associate dean of student
affairs.
"We want them to question
themselves to find out why
they are in college, and to
build attitudes toward want
ing to learn."
The six added sessions will
be set up in small discussion
groups of eight to ten people.
The student in charge will
not be a group leader, but.
he will encourage the mem
bers to answer questions
themselves to think about
what the problem means to
him personally and to t a I k
about it out loud.
It will be up to the stu
dents to decide what to talk
about. The object, according
to Martin, will be to talk
about things that affect a stu
dent as a learner. It could
be his attitudes, studying,
teachers, or the place in
which he lives.
The regular study skills
courses try to encourage the
students to become an active
participant, and to make
learning a part of their own
experience, Martin continued.
In addition, the courses in
clude aids to learning and
studying, note-making rather
than note-taking, and routine
study habits.
"However, learning is the
principal concern, rather than
the technical aspects of study
ing," Martin said.
The additional six sessions
hope to keep alive the Inter
est in learning, and to con
tinue to understand what it
takes to be a learner.
Dr. C. d'A. Gerken, direc
tor of counseling, is also in
charge of the Study Skills
program. He was formerly
the only teacher, but he is
acting as supervisor this
year.

courses are Helen Snyder,
