The seven women are: Nancy Coufal and Gail Skin- ner, notificatons assistants; Carol Johnson, Karen Wendt and Linda Parker, records assistants; Mimi Rose, assist ant of workers; and Chris Luhe, courtesy chairman and assistant chairman of public relations. After installation, the old and new officers were re minded that they "belong to the kind of college generation enjoying freedom of activities and education no other has enjoyed" by their advisor, Mrs. Ruth Levinson. She added that as the Uni versity enrollment would in crease, so would the respon sibilities of the AWS Board in their "continued role of lead ership." Mrs. Jan Whitney H i b b s, out-going president of AWS, highlighted the major accom plishments ot last year Board. Among the things she mentioned were: Ivy Day Sing for 1965; the Summer Introduction and pamphlet sent out to entering freshmen; the AWS Style Show; the fall orientation program; and Standards Week ("which broadened its scope to include all aspects of womanhood ). Constitutional revisions ex tending representation to liv ing areas; AWS Court de cisions "suited to individual cases"; a Coed Follies "with more living units represented than in past years'; and changes in women's closing and visiting hours and the passage of the senior key sys tern. "I feel our programs have been very, very successful," she said. "People now know that AWS exists and it is pri marily because of the interest shown by the women students this year." Mrs. Hibbs suggested five areas that could be improved for next year including orien tation (making it more effec tive and positive in nature); expansion of Women's Week; changing the constitution to conform with ASUN's new and uniform provisions; making the AWS House of Represen tatives "a real sounding board for the women stu dents"; and planning Coed Follies around a Centennial theme. She also mentioned the pos sibility of a bi-monthly news letter to women students keeping them informed of AWS activities.

The editorial noted that one can't be sure who is respon sible for the University's lack in revenue, but it "should not be the students now who are called upon to bail the institu tion out of its financial em barassment." It also pointed out that "no matter what it is called, an increase of $40 or so for each student next year would be a tuition boost. It would come on top of a $70 hike this year, and, for all practical pur poses, it must be viewed as permanent rather than tern porary." The editorial sueeested sew eral alternatives to raising tuition including the special session, a deficit appropria tion to be made ud hv th 1967 Legislature and "cutting oacK in otner areas to pro vide the needed funds to ac comodate its basic teaching program." "If the problem Is to be met by 'temporary' measures such as special student fees, it might be met by temporary retrenchment in research, ex tension service, agricultural experiments, graduate pro grams of limited interest or similar functions," the editor ial explained. University students through the ASUN have acted "re sponsibly, though forcefully in protecting a suggested 'em ergency fee according to the editqrial. It called the senate's report "well docu mented." "The students might have noted too," the editorial said, "that room and food rates at University dormitories are quite likely to be raised in the near future to meet in creased costs, including last week s announced hike in in terest rates for construction." The editorial explained that any blame for the Univer sity's financial problem must be shared by the Legislature and the University adminis tration. "The Legislature tra ditionally has been conserva tive at best, and niggardly at times, in providing for the University."

Ministers Publish 'Threat' Paper "We are tired of giving out piety points; we think it is time to confront the Univer sity community with the facts of life as we see them," de clared three campus minis ters in a publication called "Threat." The paper's first issue ap peared last week and anoth er is planned next week. It is published by the Rev. Hud son Phillips, Jr., Dr. Alan Pickering and the Rev. Bruce McSpadden. Rev. Phillips and Rev. Pickering are with the United Campus Christian Fel lowship, and Rev. McSpadden is assistant pastor at the Wes ley Foundation. One of the primary reasons for the publication of "Threat," Rev. Phillips said, is because the student protest groups on campus "are be ing left out on a limb in some respects." He explained that these groups say something meaningful and they receive no support from anyone. "Very seldom does anybody come out in the open. We de cided to come out in the open so that these students aren't the only ones," he said. Rev. McSpadden continued, "We have a responsibility to confront the University with issues we feel are significant. Religion Is Threat Rev. Phillips said the min- isters chose the name "Threat" because "Religion cannot be regarded as any thing but a threat." "If you take the Christian faith seriously, it threatens your ease and comfort," Rev. McSpadden said. Connected with the publica tion of "Threat," Rev.

The traditional concept, he continued, is that a campus house of religion is designed to minister to the members of that faith. A more modern view, he said, is that the campus religious organiza tions are designed to serve the entire University com munity, The paper is being published by the ministers on their own. Financial backing is not com ing from any group. The three are publishing it togeth er, Rev. McSpadden said, be cause this way "it has great er impact," as it represents th3 thinking of three, not one or two ministers and is not meant as the viewpoint of any one religious denomination or group. 'Hope Students Respond' There are no students par ticipating in the publication of "Threat," Rev. McSpadden said. "We certainly hope the students will respond to it in terms of discussion, at least, and later writing." Students, he added "are of ten afraid to express them selves forthrightly in request to religion." Through "Threat," he explained, the ministers hope in part to be able to "gain this freedom for them" by making religion on the campus a vital thing. The editors introduced the first edition with the com ment, "We think it is time to ask you as a student or a faculty member at the Uni versity of Nebraska, 'Who in the hell we think we are." t s ' vamtX F 1 y: 'Chinese May Act Like Russians In 20 Years' By Kelley Baker If we' can contain the Chi nese for 20 years, they will probably eventually act the same as the Russians, Dr. Soo Sung Cho said Tuesday. Cho, visiting assistant pro- essor of social sciences, spoke at the second m a two part series on the Far East. This series was part of a forum program- on Southeast Asia being sponsored every Tuesday at 4:30 in the Ne braska Union by campus re ligious groups. Cho said the West could accomplish more by accepting the Red Chinese government and people than by excluding them from contact with the rest of the world. "The atti tude of an isolated people is always the sime they are trying to change the status quo. The same situation oc curred with Russia in 1945." Cho proposed that the United States might consider expanding trade relations with the Chinese in non-stra tegic areas. "After all, the lack of food is a humanitarian problem. Perhaps we should accept the people as well as the regime." When questioned on the possibility of improving cul tural relations, Cho replied, "The initial stage of such a relationship is always frus trating ,but as long as we open the door there remains the possibility that they may modify their position. Though such relations began with Russia on a rocky foot ing, important exchange have been made in several fields. In fact, Harvard and Columbia now have student exchange programs with uni versities in Russia. As an indication of t h e state of U.S.-Chinese relations Cho suggested watching to see if Red China would send Dairy Club To Crown Princess The Dairy Royal princess will be crowned at the Dairy Royal dance Saturday night on Last Campus.

Questioned on the probable effects of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearings on Red China, Cho replied "The hearings will probably change the understanding and mentality of the American public, but I doubt that they will affect foreign policy." Discussing the intellectual class in China, Cho explained "it is basically composed of the college graduates and the major issue which motivates them is nationalism." He pointed out that the men who are in charge of devel oping China's atomic bomb and missile system were for merly employed and educated in the United States and have returned to their homeland to try to help develop it into the knew. Cho predicted a revolution of the intellectual class, but added, "I doubt that it will come even in our generation. But there will be a time when people will begin to criticize. Remember that it took 40 years for it to happen in Rus sia." Asked to define the major differences between Russia and Red China, Cho broke the topic into three parts: First, there is an ideologi cal difference. China holds to the Marxian principle that war is inevitable while Rus sia has accepted peaceful co existence. The Soviet Union believes that revolution cannot be ex ported, though the Russians are willing to assist an indig enous uprising. China, on the other hand, believes in mak ing trouble whenever possible and profitable. The third bone of contention is the border dispute between the two countries. Commenting on the possibil ity of escalation In the war in Viet Nam, Cho said, "I believe that Johnson is trying to hold down escalation in the war, but it usually happens bit by bit." He suggested "continud escalation shows that America is having diffi culty holding the present line." "I doubt that China will be invited to join the United Na tions, especially during this session of the General Assem IN Stylist hv Sheaffer if GOLD'S stationery . . . street floor gold's Page 5 bly because it is an election year in the U.S. However the trend is toward admitting her to the organization.

"In the strict sense, the question is not the admission of Red China but who shall represent China Formosa advocates a two-China policy while Red China claims For mosa as an integral part of communist China." As a final point, Cho dis cussed the possibility of a co alition between the mainland and Formosa. He mentioned that this is a goal toward which Red China has been desperately working. "Though such a coalition will not occur within te life time of Chiang Kai Shek, the chances will improve after his death." Since America de pends on Formosa as a stra tegic base, it will be interest ing to note the results of such a possibility.
