Crying Shame
The University is cryinig for more money. Students are
attending classes in an old, decrepit music building.
Last year the national Women's Athletic Association
convention was held in a modern building will all of the
up to date facilities one could imagine. This year the con
vention will be held in Nebraska.
It's a sad story.
But look at the way the University is spending its
money. This summer and fall, workmen slaved building a
new faculty parking lot. The purpose of the new lot was
to beautify the campus.
In the p r o c e s s the University lost over 100 parking
spaces. There is not enough parking on campus now.
Too waste what there is seems a crime.
And in addition, the lot isn't even that pretty.
It seems that if the administrators were a little more
judicious with the way the money is spent, the Legislature
would be a little more giving.
A Real Queen
Wednesday, elections were held for Homecoming
Queen. The number that voted was a sad tale considering
the number on campus, but never the less, usual.
However, this year's Queen may be able to boast
somethinig that has been doubtful in other elections. She
maybe the real queen.
There has been no talk about Greek's uniting for a
"Big 3" or about the independents uniting and voting so
that only their candidate receives a vote from each inde
pendent. Campus elections have at times been a farce because
of this very matter. It has been a vote for the house, not
for the girl.
Maybe it was the fact that Tassel's did not identify the
girls with their houses as much as in the past.
Maybe it was the fact that there were two independents
up this year.
Maybe there was just no interest this year.
Whatever it was, it is good to see the election fail to
turn into a Greek-Independent battle at it has in the past
Disregarding the last 'maybe,' this may be an en
couraginig trend on the campus.

if and when
. .By Doug Thorn
I ran into a guy the oth
er day who had a solution
for every problem. The on
ly thing was he couldn't
solve 'em. That may be in
ambiguous context but it
seems applicable to what's
going on around here.
We're loaded with prob
lems, but what steps are
being taken for resolution?
It appears not much.
Student welfare is what
I'm driving at and there is
a student committee de
signed for that purpose.
They should be campus
snoopers, searching needs of
students and taking steps to
satisfy them. They are at
tempting and maybe the
following suggestions may
give them, to use an old
cliche, food for thought.
In just taking a gander
around the Big Eight and
their resolutions, let's pick
these problems.
One criticism has been
the advisor system. At Kan
sas the Student Senate es
tablished a student advisory
board, composed of honor
students, to advise present
and prospective students on
enrollment and class sched
uling procedure as a com
plimentary body to the al
ready existing Faculty, Ad
vising System.
Someone should look into
the feasibility of a student
activity ticket (Cornhusker,
sports, drama, etc.) to find
its good and bad points.
Colorado does not allow
freshmen and sophs with
low averages to park on
campus. Finding a parking
place around here is like
hunting for a pledge on Fri
day afternoon.
Maybe we should estab
lish an education affairs
committee similar to the
one at Oklahoma State
which investigates problems
and recommends legislation
needed in academic mat
ters where they concern
students.
Iowa State has a dead
week before finals no in
tramurals, activities, tests,
organized social activities.
Worth pursuit?
And the best one. Elim
ination of finals for seniors,
a practice instituted at
many schools.
I don't mean to criticize
the welfare committee, but
some problems must be
rectified if we are to meet
the needs fo an expanding
enrollment progressive in
thought, mature in decision,
so here's to if and when.
By Bob Weaver
If Theodore White, the
author of the Making of the
President 1960 decides to
chronicle this year's presi
dential race, it now seems
probable that he will report
that honesty in government
is the most significant is
sue in this campaign.
Senator Barry Goldwater,
the Republican hopeful, in
tends to make this the "gut
issue" of his try for t h e
White House. Once again
on Wednesday of this week
he pledged that if elected
he would give the America;)
people nothing but the
truth from the moment he
first entered the White
House until the end of his
term.
And now, the one event
which could conceivably
turn the tide for the Ari
zona Senator has occurred.
Special White House Assis
tant Walter W. Jenkins sub
mitted his resignation to
President on Wednes
day and it has been prompt
ly accepted.
This disclosure came af
ter newsmen . checked the
Washington police records
bureau, which varified that
Jenkins had been arrested
last week and in 1959 by the
morals division on charges
of disorderly conduct. Lat
er at the traveling White
House in New York City,
where the President was
preparing to speak, the re
signation was made public.
It is too early to estimate
the effect this recent event
will have on the presidential
race. Certainly the Repub
licans will cite this as one
more example of their
charge of moral decay sur
rounding the President. It
is to be remembered that
Jenkins has been linked
with the dealings of Bobby
Baker and the sale of ad
vertising time to Washing
ton insurance man Don B.
Reynolds on the Johnson
family's television station in
Austin, Texas, after Rey
nolds sold Senator Johnson
life insurance in 1957.
After Republicans de
manded an explanation, Jen
kins denied any knowledge
of this arrangement in a
sworn statement.
Recently also the previous
ly disclosed affairs of Sen
ate aide Bobby Baker, the
former Secretary to the Ma
jority, have been linked with
an alleged pay off by Dem
ocratic fund raiser and
former Ambassador to Ire
land, Mathew J. McClowsky
whose construction firm
built the Washington Sta
dium. The pay off involving the
stadium's construction was
allegedly made into the 1960
Democratic campaign fund.

charges in this most recent
Bobby Baker Investigation
episode.
Each elector will have to
determine for himself
whether available evidence
warrants a vote against the
Johnson-Humphrey ticket on
grounds of dishonesty. It is
to be noted here that the
president has not been link
ed officially with any of
these charges.
Nor have any of the prin
ciples involved been ar
raigned or convicted in a
court of law. Undue in
fluence on Mr. Baker's
part has been made public
and this certainly warrants
the utmost attention of the
Senate and the FBI who has
been ordered by the presi
dent to investigate t h e s
matters.
Needless to say, however,
every American has a right
to demand that his gov
ernment officials practice
the highest ethics in the ex
ercise of their elective or
appointive trust. Any furth
er investigations of the Bob
by Baker Walter Jenkins
dealings should be followed
by a full disclosure to the
American public and ap
propriate legislation to reg
ulate the activities of Con
gressional employees and
those doing business with
the federal government.
Squabble
Homecoming displays are
being built, the Home
coming queen has been
elected and a certain few
know who will receive the
crown at the big moment.
All the preparations are
met or being met in short
order, and all that's left is
the actual game.
A. representative of the
Extra Point Club recently
brought it, or re-brought it,
to my attention that that
group is urging that all fans
wear red to Nebraska
games.
The smattering of red
throughout the coliseum is
impressive. It easily shows
how many are rooting for
the mighty Cornhuskers.
It is especially impressive
at games away from Lin
coln where Nebraskans can
identify themselves.
