H Ellsworth F. DuTeau usker spirit is a thing usuailv defined in terms of loud cheers at a football game, scarlet streamers and the black and gold and red of Mortar Boards and Innocents. This student and old grad loyalty thrives on color, noise and rah-rahs. Just as important, however, is that more concrete loyalty which brings alums together in the large cities of the nation, unites Nebraskans all over the country. Organs of this after-college clan- feeling are the Alumni Association headed by Ellsworth F. Du Teau, and the Nebraska Alumnus, 4500 copies of which are sent out each month to members of the Association. Student organization newly created to help foster the university spirit in high schools throughout the state of Nebraska is the Nebraska Foundation. In cooperation with the University and the Alumni Associa- tion, chairman John Jay Douglass and his cohorts traveled across the state giving out propaganda literature and showing colored movies of campus life and times. Good old Husker spirit seems to be on the upturn. Homecoming at Nebraska. Jean Christie and Max Whittaker, left, start off the gay day with rousing pep talks.
