Media center

film festival
A four-day festival of films
sponsored by the instructional media
center of the University's Extension
Division is being shown this week in
the Love library auditorium.
The showings which began Monday

afternoon the films are concerned
with different topics.
Communication films for business,
Industry and education are being
shown today. On Wednesday, new
films for teens and adults are being
shown. "Cities in Crisis: What's Hap
pening?" "Moods of Surfing," and
"Beyond LSD: A Film for Concerned
Adults and Teenagers," are included
among the titles.
Eight non-verbal films are being
screened Thursday afternoon. The
films are used in the classroom or
by discussion groups and represent
a new area for. the educational film
field, according to James L. Titter
ington, supervisor of the University s
film library.
"The non-verbal film used to be
the medium for only artists or ex
perimental film makers. Now the
educational field is discovering that
their films have to be updated.
"Because they are television babies,
the children in the classroom today
are used to quality films," he said.
The festival offers the opportunity
for teachers, business personnel and
other interested persons to preview
films recently acquired by the library.
The library has a collection of 5,000
different titles which can be rented
for three and five-day periods.

World traveler visits
he 'circles
Dr.- John H. Furbay, Internationally
known lecturer, author and world air
commuter, visited the University
campus Monday and addressed a
convocation audience in the afternoon.
He heads TWA's Air World Educa
tion program and has for years been
circling the globe like a human
satellite. His various missions for
business, government or scientific
research have" covered nearly four
million miles.
"The airplane has made the world
so small we have to learn to get
along with one another. The challenge
of this and following generations,"
Furbay points out, "is to find the
answer to how all the peoples on earth
can prosper and live side by side
in peace. We are sending men into
outer space and yet we still have
much to learn here on earth."
He has found that people are alike
fundamentally, no matter where they
live. This even holds true of cannibals.
Furbay has spent time with several
cannibal tribes in West Africa and
in the South Pacific. He learned that
these people are "gentle and in-'
telligent, with beautiful traditions, a
well-ordered society and a smooth
family life."
Although civilization can offer these
primitive natives better health and
medical care, he feels that little can
be offered in the way of personal
happiness.
Furbay conducted a series of in
telligence tests with these natives and
found that although their customs and
way of life differ greatly from that
of civilized peoples, their intellect
compares favorably.
While teaching In a midwest
university in Indiana, he once directed
Four profs receive leaves
Four University of Nebraska pro
fessors have been granted leaves of
absence for one semester during the
1969-70 school year to enable them to
study under Frank H. Woods
Fellowships in Humanities.
The Fellowships, supported by the
Woods Charitable Fund of Lincoln and
Chicago, to Thomas P. Coleman,
assistant professor of art; Ned S.
Hedges, assistant professor of English
and director of freshman English;
James L. Roberts, associate professor
of English; and Dennis Schneider,
assistant professor of music.
Dr. Joseph Soshnik, president of the
Lincoln campuses, termed the
fellowships a "major factor in the
recruitment and retention of high
quality faculty in the humanities."
Nearly 60 persons have been
awarded the fellowships since their
beginning in 1955. In order to receive
one, a faculty member must be on the
staff of the College of Arts and
Sciences working in the humanities.
The fellowship enables the professor
to take a semester's leave to do
creative work in his particular area.

digging out more lively things than

people.
The education editor of the New
York Herald Tribune called him the
"long-distance, all-year-round, world
wide marathon champion of the lec
ture platform."
With rriass travel in the jet age,
the problem facing Americans is "how
to correct attitudes of intolerance and
prejudice and how to create travelers
who can understand their world
neighbors."
Furbay says that "we must
recognize that the standards "by which
we judge progress and superiority are
not necessarily the standards used by
other peoples. Many nations whose
scientific . developments and
mechanical achievements have not
ascended to the heights of our own
can teach us valuable things in other
areas of living."
He urges that a genuine apprecia
tion of other peoples, their history,
philosophy and contributions to world
culture be developed.
Furbay has a succession o f
achievements as educator, diplomat,
explorer, writer and military leader.
He holds a Ph.D. from Yale
University and a M.A. from New York
University and he has studied at the
University of ' Chicago and the
Sorbonne in Paris.
Furbay is well equipped for his far
reaching job. He has taught in schools
from Connecticut to Hawaii, and was
president of the College of West
Africa, in Monrovia, Liberia. He has
served as educational and cultural
attache to American embassies in

University in Lincoln, later earning
both his master's and doctor's degrees
at the University. He will be on leave
the second semester, doing research
on Kenneth Grahame's "The Wind in
the Willows" and traveling in the
United States to work on
manuscripts.
Research in the United Stales on
John Steinbeck's works will be the
