Thursday, October 19, 1967 The Daily Nebraskan Page 3 IVews In Perspective ... Aftermath By MICK LOW3 Senior Staff Writer It was a tough act to fol low. The Cornhuskers had just dropped their first game of the season, and -most students switched from radio and brawn to television and brains in hopes that the University College Bowl team could salvage what was already a long afternoon. But it got longer as the University team was beat en by the University of Wis consin at Milwaukee 240 to 95. They were never ahead, and the Milwaukee team finished w i t h a burst of heavy scoring. If the Nebraska team ap peared slightly confident at the beginning of the match, Jt was because they had beaten UWM three times in practive matches. WON IN PRACTICE "The kids won three out of four matches," observed coach James Roberts. "They just lost the one that counted." "They won two close matches, and beat Wiscon sin overwhelmingly in the third," Roberts said. The Quiz Bowl team did not appear too disappointed with the defeat. Their TV appearance had not been widely publicized, there was little commotion at the airport as they left, and they went with the idea of "just having a great week end in New York," in the words of Larry Grossman, a team member. RETURN TO CAMPUS But they still had to re turn to a campus full of people who recognized the pictures of the Tinkers-to-Evers - to - Chance double play combination, (no one on . the team recognized them) and people who East Union . . .

"T h e consensus seems to be," laughed John Sim mons, "that we really weren't so smart after all." Captain Jim Allard said that an amazing number of people have been speaking to him on the streets in the last few weeks, and one team member said that his girl's sorority sisters who had never showed much interest in him be fore, started asking her all of a sudden "how she man aged to catch me." GROOVY WEEKEND Still, they came back from New York with more knowledge than when they left. Linda Marchello said that she spent a "groovy" weekend visiting art gal leries in the Manhatten area, and Dave Landis, the team alternate, has learn ed to check the menu for prices before ordering. Landis was forced to leave his coat in the Vil lage Gate as "collateral" when he ordered a drink that cost about twenty-five cents more than he had with him. "I wandered around the streets for about ten min utes until I ran into Allard and Simmons who loaned me the money I needed. The drink wasn't that good, either," Landis concluded. MANHATTAN HIKE The team invaded New York armed with maps of the city and subway sched ules, (only Larry Gross man has been to New York before,) and Marchello, Simmons and Grossman hiked most of the length of Manhatten Island one morning, "just for the heck of it."

The program is one of a series of the Contempor ary Symposiums originated by the Music Department in 1955. According to Rob ert Beadell, professor of music, the series focuses on twentieth century innova tions. Beadell said that, often, definite advancements in the field of music appear as gimmicks to laymen, since the ear of tb ")m poser is usually about 50 years ahead of the ear of the laymen. Electronic Music, said Beadell, is not a new the ory, tut has blossomed only withing the past ten years and has reached the posi tion of a valid approach to a new dimension in the field of music.

John Everett Clifton, 19, died early last Tuesday of . what the official autopsy report described as "aspir ational asphixiation." His death was linked to the initiation procedures of the club he was pledging, which included drinking a mixture of five laxatives and garlic, and then doing calisthenics. The secret initiation took place at a farm five miles from Baylor. PRESTIGE Clitfon's club, the Baylor Chamber of Commerce, is one of several on campus. Some of them are purely social clubs and others are service clubs. The Chamber is the old est and most prestigious of the latter. It was one of the clubs cited by Baylor Presi dent Abner McCall as not cooperating with the uni versity's ban on hazing. The president said that in spite of the ban, "some of the men's clubs have main tained some of the milder aspects of the initiation such as calisthenics and the drinking of distasteful con coctions." LAXATIVE He indicated that the uni versity plans to enforce the regulations governing haz ing more rigorously in the future. According to Tommy Kennedy, co-editor of the Baylor Lariat, the Chamber has a printed sheet setting forth its hazing procedures, which has been confiscated by the Waco police. Kennedy said the proced ures included the following: Consumption of onions, garlic and salt and pepper sauce and the smoking of cigars by pledges. mm. ' t T'-W'- HCT fff mfw :-WW-K-Z'A VlV eji!!

Kennedy said the toast was apparently the laxative and garlic mix ture. Undressing and climb ing under a fence. At this stage, according to Ken nedy, the sheet said that cattle prods were to be used on the pledges. Then the pledges were to continue doing calisthenics. It was during one of the calisthenics sessions that Clifton collapsed. In the report issued after his death, Justice of the Peace Joe Johnson said Clifton "drowned in his own juices. He could have drowned either in vomit, or in the juice he had been given." The Physical Hazing Committee, made up of stu dents, began its investiga tion of Clifton's death Fri day.

THERE ARE NO BAD TEACHERS; THERE ARE ONLY BAD STUDENTS The academic year has only just begun and already one thing is clear : you're not ready for college. What, then, should you do? Should you throw up your hands and quit? I say no ! I say you must attack, grapple, cope! I say America did not become the world's leader in motel construction and kidney transplants by running away from a fight! To the question then : You say you're not ready for col lege. You're too green, too naive. You lack maturity. Okay, the answer is simple: get mature. How? Well sir, to achieve maturity you need two things : a) a probing mind; b) a vest. A probing mind will be quickly yours if you'll remem ber that education consists not of answers but of ques tions. Blindly accepting information and dumbly memorizing data is high school stuff. In college you don't just accept. You dispute, you push, you pry, you chal lenge. If, for instance, your physics prof says, "E equals mc squared," don't just write it down. Say to the prof, "Why?" This will show him two things : a) Your mind is a keen, thrusting instrument. b) You are in the wrong major. Ask questions, questions, and more questions. That is the essence of maturity, the heart and liver of education. Nothing will more quickly convince the teachers that you are of college calibre. And the tougher your questions, the better. Come to class with queries that dart and flash, that make unexpected sallies into uncharted territory. Ask things which have never been asked before, like "How tall was Nietzsche?" and "Did the Minotaur have ticks? If so, were they immortal?" and "How often did Pitt the Elder shave?" (Incidentally, you may never know the complete an swer to Pitt the Elder's shaving habits, but of one thing you can be positive: no matter how often he shaved and no matter what blades he used, he never enjoyed the shaving comfort that you do. I am assuming, of course, that you use Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades, a logical assumption to make when one is addressing col lege men-which is to say men of perspicacity, discrimi nation, wit, taste, cognizance, and shrewdness-for Personna is a blade to please the perspicacious, delight the discriminating, win the witty, tickle the tasteful, coddle the cognizer, and shave the shrewd. (I bring up Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades be cause the makers of Personna Super Stainless Stsel Blades pay me to write this column, and they are in clined to sulk if I omit to mention their product. I would not like to see them unhappy, the makers of Personna, for they are fine ruddy men, fond of morris dancing and home brewed root beer, and they make a blade that shaves closely and cleanly, nicklessly and hacklessly, and is sharp and gleaming and durable and available both in double-edge style and Injector style. (And from these same bounteous blademakers comes Burma-Shave, regular or menthol, a lather that out lathers other lathers, brother. So if you'd rather lather better, and soak your whiskers wetter. Burma-Shave's your answer.) But I digress. We have now solved the problem of maturity. In subsequent columns we'll take up other is sues, equally burning. Since 1953 when this column first started running in your campus paper, we've tackled such thorny questions as "Can a student of 19 find hap piness with an economics professor of 90?" and "Should capital punishment for pledges be abolished?" and "Are room-mates sanitary?" Be assured that in this, our 14th year, we will not be less bold. 0 1HI.

The police will not be in volved in the investigations, according to C. C. Risen hoover, director of news and information at the uni versity. Risenhoover said the university has not yet decided whether or not to take disciplinary action against the club's members. The Chamber of Com merce is described by non members as a "secretive, tightly-knit organization." Kennedy, who knows sev eral members, said, "They are very, very organized, and they instill the spirit in their members of wanting to do anything for the club." He added, "Its pretty ironic; their motto is 'Any thing for Baylor.'" The club's official duties on campus include running the fall, and spring home coming celebrations and taking care of the bears that are the university's mascots. 432-4277 with 7 r 5 I m as l'V'5 A .
