Prior to the new program some former servicemen were not eligible to enlist in the Air Force because of the type of former ser vice training they had re ceived. Under the new program, former servicemen will know which school they will attend, the rank they will receive, and the base to which they will be assigned before enlisting.

By BARB MARTIN Junior Staff Writer .An experimental French house sponsored last sum mer by the Romance Lan guage Department has pro vided the guidelines for an expanded and improved lan guage program at the Uni versity, according to Miss Lenore Buford, a French in structor. Miss Buford explained that last summer from July 5 to August 5 six girls with at least three years of high school French study were housed at the Nebraska Cen ter for Continuing Education under the supervision of Miss M a r g o Osborn, a graduate student in French. Each girl promised that during her 8-week visit she would speak nothing but French. Classes were of fered in grammar, phoene tics and French civiliza tion. BASTILLE CELEBRATION The students ate at a separate "French table" and attended discussion groups during the evenings. No radio or television was allowed. Instead the girls were offered popular and folk music by French ar tists and French movies. The French house spon sored a Bastille Day cele bration, the equivalent of America's Fourth of July, and the French students made two visits to the homes of faculty members. Sev eral French-speaking guests were invited to address the girls and a reception was held for Department mem bers. Miss Buford said that the first few days were diffi cult. She added that French dictionaries were in con stant use, and the groping for words caused many new foreign phrases to be de veloped. The instructor said that these problems were ex pected and by the end of the first week had virtually disappeared. EFFECTIVE LEARNING "Short 6i going to France, this is one of the most ef fective ways of learning a language," Miss Buford said. A student does not speak a foreign language fluently until the spoken word becomes a reflex ac tion, she commented, and this comes only from con stant usage. She added that this is an excellent preparation for European study because the fluency acquired here gives the student security. Miss Buford indicated that the program w i 1 1 be ex panded next summer to in clude from 30 to 50 students of various levels, in the French house. The" depart ment also has planned to sponsor a Spanish house. Eventually every language offered at the University will be represented in the program. The instructor said that in the future the Department hopes to provide language houses that will continue throughout the academic year. She said that she -hopes the expanded pro gram will isolate the par ticipants more fully than last summer. COMPETITIVE SPIRIT Miss Buford explained that a program of this type is very valuable to the stu dent for several reasons. She said that students are interested when they come, and the competitive spirit heightens their interest. She added that students who are chosen to participate in the program are proud to be in the group and work hard to prove themselves. The students, Miss Buford said, are drawn together by their common interest in one particular language, and this eliminates the clashes that sometimes result from dorm life. "In other words, they certainly have a lot to talk about," she said. Mary Sunderman, Lincoln freshman who participated in the program, said that she hopes to attend another French house. "You learn to express yourself differ ently than in a classroom because you discuss relig ion, politics, even jokes. I must have learned a lot, be cause my' roomates said that I even spoke French in my sleep." Rep. Mathias Names gr 1968 Election Issues Representative Robert B. Mathias of California out lined the three major issues for the 1968 national elec tion as being Vietnam, in flation, and law and order at a "Report from Washing ton" dinner honoring Ne b r a s k a ' s Representative Robert V. Denney Friday night. He cautioned, however, that not accusations, but sound programs would win for the GOP. He said, "The Constitution gives us t h e right to petition our griev ances. It does not give us the right to partition the na tion into groups hating and despising each other." He also emphasized se curity, saying that security is not necessarily the status quo. but that it can be prog ress. He said the worst thing that could happen to the Republicans in the up coming election would be a division among themselves. Mathias, a two-time win ner of the Olympic Decath lon gold medal, praised fel low freshman Congressman Bob Denney for his hard work in Congress. Development of youth in the United States is one of Rep. Mathias' major in terests. He has also worked in international youth ac tivities, traveling to Europe, the middle East, and the far East. The $15-a-p late dinner was one of a series of first Congressional district din ners given in Denney's be half. Congressmen Glenn Cunningham and Roman L. Hruska, Governor Norbert Tiemann and Mayor Sam Schwartzkopf also addressed the estimated crowd of 600. A car smash to increase school spirit and raise mon ey for the Pershing Rifles will be held November 9 in conjunction with the home coming bonfire. The. cars, decorated with Oklahoma State symbols, will be donated by local merchants. Money from the smash will help send the Pershing Rifles' and Cadence Count ess' drill units on two drill trips this year.
