He will address the opening session at 2:00 p.m. Friday on the basic issues in American education. Silber's administration at Texas has been characterized by a "repersonalization" of the College of Arts and Sciences. He has initiated an extensive program of student evaluation of teachers and courses, ap pointed a student ombudsman to investigate student com plaints, employed students to serve as advisers in the dean's office and helped create an ex perimental freshman English course in rhetoric. Other guest panelists at the conference are: Dr. Trevor Colbourn, dean of graduate studies at the University of New Hampshire. Colbourn has served on the faculties of Johns Hopkins University, Penn State University, and Indiana University. The author of four books, he has published and lectured widely on the subject of early American history and is a founding member of the Conference on Early American History.

Halgren. "In its six years of existence, I have never had a minority student come to this office complaining of discrimination in trying to get a job," Halgren said. There is no reluctance on the part of any employer to talk to any student, he added. "We function within the range of governmental regula tion," he said. He pointed out that the companies dealt with by the Placement Office are Equal Opportunity Employers, and in the companies' letters to the Placement Office, they often ask the office's coopera tion in Equal Opportunity Employment. Because no student is iden tified in a discriminatory sense when he goes through the placement interviews, no record is kept of the members of minority groups' success in finding jobs. However, Halgren made clear that all students, regardless of race, color, religion, nationality, and creed, can get jobs fairly easily. "We help any student who has difficul'y in getting a job," he explained. "Generally, the only reason students have trouble in getting Jobs is either their field or their geographic location." He cited the example of a student who wanted to be an ocean biologist and live in Ogal'a'a at the same time. The director pointed out that the Placement Office en courages all students to get jobs. Non-citizens have trouble getting government jobs, Halgren said, but can be placed in other positions through the office. Gllttastfteiia Help Wanted BALL FOR PEACE College Men.

Husker coach Joe Cipriano, who after the game conceded that only center Leroy Chalk had played well for Nebraska, credited good free throw shooting and a good Nebraska crowd as being responsible for the triumph. "I guess this game showed that you cannot underrate any team in basketball," Cip said. "We've tried to teach our players that anyone can beat anyone else on a given night. Every player puts his shoes on the same way." Cip, who returned each player from last year's unit except substitutes Tom Bryan and N. S. Hurd, praised the California club's pass-oriented offense. "They call it a passing game, and it's going through California like wildfire," he said of the Irvine approach, which gave Nebraska defenders considerable pro blems. The Huskers, however, seemed to encounter few pro blems in the first half in cn structing a 45-32 bulge. The comfortable cushion remained intact throughout the first 14 minutes of the second half, and, at one time, had even grown to 21 points (53-32). Irvine's rally may have started with 10:35 left In the game when NU guard Marvin Stewart was ejected from the game for his part in a slugging scrap, which eventually emptied both benches. Stewart had blocked a layup by Irvine's Steve Sabins. Stewart landed on top of the Glendale, Calif., senior, who apparently thought the horiz ontal landing was too hard. Sabins threw the first punch in the fight. The Anteaters then reeled off six straight points af'er the in cident to close to within 66-60. Nebraska seemed to be in control, however, with 3:11 re maining when Tom Scantlebury deposit ied a fielder, hiking the Nebraska margin to 74-67. Sabins almost rescued the California club, hitting six straight points in the next two minutes, a scoring salvo wliich pushed the Anteaters one-point behind, 74-73. The Huskers then started a ball-control game with 1:14 re maining. Leading scorer Chalk iced Nebraska's victory with two free throws with 1:04 left. Sophomore Jim White and junior Cliff Moller missed the first end of 1-1 situations for the Huskers In the last minute. Chalk pocketed eight fl'd goals in 13 tries and added eight free throws for 24 point?.; He also paced rebounders on both clubs with 17 retrieves. Sabins led Irvine's aft''' with 23 points, 14 of which w scored after intermisst Sabins also contributed 14 bounds before fouling out less than five minutes maining. fg-fqa ft Its eb of 2- 7 1 1 3- 4 1 4 J-J 2 4 3-3 0 1 4 4 2 0-10 0 O-t 2 1 4-42 0-14 2 1-11 110 17 2 7J-57 M- 4 !
