No, Nebraska, there is no
editorial today.
Perhaps I should add that
editors have not always
. written a daily editorial; in
fact, last semester was the
first since I've been here
that one has.
The others resorted
to such practices as run
ning the Civil Rights Bill
verbatim, filling the page
with letters to the editor or
running columnists in this
space. With Dick Gregory's
denunciation of the Civil
Rights Bill, the lack of any
opinions on this campus and
no columnists except me
available in the office, here
is a Closet Case.
Speaking of Gregory, I
thought many students com
pletely missed the point of
his well-directed satire,
judging by the velocity and
duration of the laughter on
various jokes. It seemed
from here that the jokes
directed against the white
were much more favorably
received than those against
the Negro.
Many students. 1 think,
can relieve their feelings of
guilt about their duty to so
ciety by laughing at whites
with a Negro.
These same students
failed to catch the magnetic
tension that passed over the
crowd when Gregory
abruptly switched from hu
mor to humanity a hand
ful continued to laugh,
periodically, just as if they
continued to hear the come
dian's jokes.
Gregory is now finished
with this campus and has
returned to trial in Selma.
and I doubt if anyone re
members him as more than
a comedian who occasion
ly made them feel uncom
fortable anyone, that is,
other than those who went
to see him with desires to
hear more than the u g 1 y
cliche "controversial speak
er" or the comedian.
This thing about contro
versial speakers really kills
me. Granted, we get some
real deadbeats here ( w i t h
exceptions I, but not many
students in this province
know how to listen to a
"controversial speaker."

Yes. kiddies, now we are

Classes were held Monday
until 2:30 p.m., when it was

Students, many of whom

spokesman denied knowl

in spite of Fegley's pro

it was disclosed late last
night that Doc Elliot is real

study grant provided by the
Betcher Life Insurance
Company. His major is ad

A blood cult of sadism
was discovered among the
Dental Students by a So

his teeth were pulled by
three of the Dental pupils.
They termed the extrac

no real harm was meant.
Three Phi Delts, who re

Unfortunately, tickets for

Library
Dear editor.
I thought it might be of
interest to your readers to
know where the meager
funds appropriated for the
University are being spent.
An instance which to mind
and which I am sure that
many students are not
aware of is the new addi
tion to the library.
This new money which the
library staff claims will
save money is a new set of
doors which operate auto
matically in the following
manner: on any day on
which more than two inches
of snow falls, the doors
close automatically at least
by sundown and sooner if
t h e installation is oiled,
greased and otherwise in
proper working order.
It is well-known by a 1 1
those students interested in
ideas (the number of which
must by now be approach
ing the hundred mark) that
our library is one of the fin
est in all the land, so this
new addition will surely be
appreciated and its contri
butions to the cause of high
er learning duly noted.
It may also be said to
those who feel that the li
brary should be maintain
ing hours at least compar
able to those of the Student
Union that our union keeps
kids off the streets where
they might well get into
trouble and puts them
where they can be kept
track of as they should be.
Heavens only knows what
would happen, if, the extra
hours being made available
by the library's being open,
they began spending time
perusing the books there

Alas, from Him who rules

silence loud. With members
frozen, meset myself to
buckle the last whimpering
husky to the sled. Then I
mushed to class (where
there was weeping and
gnashing of teeth) passing in
blizzard foul many fleshy
frozen pillars; and, as 1
passed, I thoughtfully
plucked from under their
lifeless grasps their books,
reflecting on my fortune

to sell the books to the book
store when it got dug out.
Then, methinks that I
must write a letter of thanks

Addition
and getting all sorts of ideas
from them.
One of the great gains
that comes from having a
library is that it increases
the level of campus culture,
and it is well known in all
the best circles that that
certainly does not entail
most everyone using it nor
the hours being available
for those who do use it.
A library should be neat,
clean and pretty and i t s
books well ordered on the
shelves. It doesn't take a
great mind to see that these
goals would be impossible
to maintain if students were
running around the place
all hours, especially stu
dents with wet feet.
At any rate, for all those
who. unthinkable as the
thought is. would like to use
the library, you might have
already noticed that if the
new installation happens to
be pre-set. the doors should
be open all summer long.
Tenderly yours.

Really
Dear editor,
In reference to Dr. (Da
vid F.) Trask's article.
"Passing Through," (Mon
day's Daily Nebraskan) I
have only one question.
Why is' the expression of
one's opinion revolutionary?
I would think that a pro
fessor of history could dis
criminate between the
ideas of revolution and dis
sent or between revolution
and disagreement. If to
disagree, to be critical or
to have the "audacity" to
Peace
Dear editor,
I wish to point the irony
of Friday's article on the
Pacempeace Inon Terris
earth Conference and the
report from one of Nebras
ka's representatives to that
conference, Dr. Frank Sor
enson. The purpose of the world
conference, held the pre
vious week, was allegedly a
search for peace, using
Pope John XXIII's last en
cyclical as the theme: the
idea that the inferiority
complex of some nations is
being alleviated, and that a
corresponding fading of sup
eriority complexes among
other nations is occuring.
Either there was aver y
faulty reporting job. or Dr.
Sorenson's three most im
portant observations from
the search for peace were
the following:
that since the conference
was held in our very o w n
New York City, it proves
that New York is being ac
cepted as the world capital.
that the foreign repre
sentatives must have been
sincere, because they
seemed "Americanized"
and spoke English.

Irony
is definitely becoming th
international language.
It sounds like Dr. Soren
son attended the conference
to judge a world popularity
contest.
Americans are often guil
ty of asking for peace and
expecting obedience, but it
is the cause for especially
bitter reflection when our
representative returns from
a world conirence on peace
with only the cheering word
that the ' "chances for
America to have tremendous
impact on the world com
munity" are "great."
As a member of the "win
ning side," I suppose I
should be proud, but as an
American, I am ashamed of
this confusion between the
issues of peace and Ameri
can supremacy.
What are the chances for
America to respect other
"economic principles" than
her own? What are the
chances for smaller nations
to exist as independent
entities? What are the
chances for toleration? What
are the chances for peace?
The superiority complex is
supposed to be fading. Dr.
Sorenson.
