Quz Bowl Set
For 72 Teams
More teams will have to
play each night when Quiz
Bowl is held this year due to
the fact that 72 teams have
signed up.
Last year only 40 teams
were entered, and the pres
sure was not so great on the
Quiz Bowl committee, ae
cording to Cuz Guenzel, chair
man.
Six matches will have to
be held each time for at least
twelve weeks according to
Miss Guenzel, to accomodate
the large number of teams
before the end of the school
year and the coming of the
Big Eight Conference In the
spring.
The procedure for selecting
tournament entries will be
based on the double elimina
tion principle. This means
that every team will be in at
least two matches.
The first matches will be
held tomorrow night. The first
two teams will be the Purple
Gougers and the Alpha Omi
cron Pi team. Their match
will be at 7 p.m. The second
two teams for the evening,
Heppner Hall No. 1, and Sig
ma Nu, must also be pres
et at 7 p.m., due. to some
dt .iication of questions.
The second set of teams
must be present at 7:50 to
morrow night. The Phi Psi
Piumcakes will meet Gustav
son II B at 7:50, and Alpha
Gamma Rho will meet Love

Music Department Opportunities
Offer Activities To Non-Majors
Editor's note: This is the third
in a series of articles con
cerning opportunities for stu
dents in fields other than
their major fields of study.
This story concerns opportuni
ties in the music department
for non-music majors.
By Prlscilla Mulling
Senior Staff Writer
For the student who has an
Interest in music, but whose
future vocation does not lie
in this field, the University
Music Department holds
many opportunities.
There are a number of mus
ic classes or activities which
non-majors may take part in,
according to Emanuel Wish
now, department chairman.
The first performing organ
ization is the Madrigals group,
directed by John Moran, as
sistant professor. This group,
which is composed of 32 per
sons, is open to all freshmen
by try-out.
The Varsity Men's Glee
Club, directed by Dr. Dale
Ganz, is composed of from
55 to 60 men. The group was
originally organized for non
music majrri 'o acquaint
them with techniques of mus
ical entertainment.
This was later changed to
include all interested men.
Membership is by try-out. The
number of members in the
group is determined by the
balance of voices.
The University Singers is a
group composed of from 90
to 100 sophomores and upper
classmen from all colleges.
Directed by Earl Jenkins,
professor of voice, member
ship to this group is by try
out. The chorus classes in the
department do not go on the
basis of try-out. To be in these
groups, the student must be
able to sing and read votes.
Memorial Hall at 8:15.
In the third set, Gamma Phi
Beta I will meet Alpha Tw
Omega at 8:40, and Sigma
Kappa will meet Theta Xi I
at 9:05. Both teams must be
present at 8:40.
Miss Guenzel said that
since so many teams must be
taken care of per night, there
must necessarily be duplica
tion of questions, and each set
of teams must be present at
the same time, so the one set
may be isolated until their
match comes up.
Debate Institute
Meets Saturday
The annual Debate and So
cial Studies Institute for Ne
braska high, school debate
students will be held this
Saturday.
About 325 students will at
tend the institute sponsored

rary Auditorium.
The high school students
will particapate in two rounds
of discussion in the afternoon.
The Institute will conclude
its program with an audience
debate at 3 p.m. in the Love
Library Auditorium. The de
bate will be between the Uni
versity of Nebraska and the
University of Wyoming on the
topic: "Resolved that Nuclear
Weapons Should Be Controlled
By An International Organization."
Weekend Visiting Hours

was set up with Marburger
as chairman and RAM Coun
cil members as committee
men. This Committee will
work toward the rule change
that would allow the resolu
tion to go into effect.
"We have received a lot of
support for the resolution and
we were glad to hear the crit
icisms," Marburger said. "If
we can't have a forward look

There are three sections on
the city campus, and one sec
tion on the East Campus.
Membership for these groups
does become more selective,
according to Wishnow, when
the 200-voice limit is reached
in each section.
Any student may try out for
membership in the University
Orchestra conducted by
Emanuel Wishnow, professor
of violin. The group is com
posed of from 65 to 70 mu
sicians. In conjunction with
the Choral Union, the Orches
tra presents the "Messiah"
at Christmas and the Spring
Oratorio, which is presented
the latter part of May.
The University bands,
marching, collegiate and sym
phonic, are open to all stu
dents by try-out. The march
ing and collegiate bands are
directed by Jack Snider, as
sociate professor, and the
symphonic band Is directed
by Don Lentz, professor of
woodwinds. Try-outs for these
organizations are held before
the start of school each year.
Each year the department
presents an opera. Parts in
this production are open to
music majors primarily, but
any other person who is quali
fied may try out for a part.
This year the opera will be
"La Traviata." Those inter
ested may apply to Richard
Grace, assistant professor for
try-outs.
Another class which is avail
able to the general student is
music history. Sometimes
called "music appreciation,"
this class teaches the student
the cultural aspects of music.
It teaches him what to listen
for in music.
In accordance with the mus

dents may take applied cours
es in music. That is, they
may take lessons in piano,

cards to be counted on your
living unit's percentage for
the award."
The Crosby award will go
to the organized house with
the greatest percentage of its
membership registered In the
YR's.
Campaign chairman Doug
Paine said "It looks as if this
parade will be twice as big as
the one we had last spring."
He asked anyone interested
in being represented in the
parade, and anyone with a
convertible who wanted to
drive in the parade, to con
tact him at 434-6451.
YR President Bill Harding
said "This is an ideal oppor
tunity for all Republicans to
actively demonstrate their

candidates."

the department chairman, but
priority is given to music

A special part of the de

will be general teachers in
schools, and must teach mus

"You are your fraternity,"
she told the group, "it is as
good as you who have made

The friendship one has in
a fraternal organization pro

"Ideals are merely mirrors

power and pattern. There can

"You must know how to

A fraternity is a social unit
bound together by a set of
ideals of perfection," Mrs.

There are three objectives
a fraternal organization has
to promote to develop an in

three objectives are, accord

scholarship, and to preserve
traditions.

is then ready to be of service

Tradition
Broken
-No Military Ball
A fifty year old tradition on
the University campus the
Military Ball will not be held
this year.
Lt. Col. Robert Prentiss
said the exact reasons could
not be pinpointed, but he noted
a lack of enthusiasm and a
loss of money as some of the
reasons.
Formerly the ball, once a
big social event in Lincoln as
well as campus, officially
signaled the opening of the
social season around the first
of December.
It was sponsored by all
three military reserve train
ing groups the Navy, Army,
and Air Force.
Prentiss said the Army
ROTC is planning their own
version of the Military Ball to
be held sometime in Febru
ary. Definite plans have not
yet been made.
