"A hard worker, who isn't afraid to be the first at tak ing on a new job. A constant fighter of student apathy and disinterest.

Hardin said that the Budget Com mittee of the Legislature has said that the University must raise the tuition to accomplish all that Is called for in the budget requests. However, he added, things are In such a state of flux right now that no one can say for sure what will happen. He said that if the Legislature should leave the amount of increase to the Regents, he would predict that the in crease would not exceed the Legislature's proposal in any area. Hardin said that the action taken last week on the University's capital im provement bill demonstrated that a ma jority of the legislators "squarely faced some of the real problems facing the University and have proceeded to do some thing about them." "I hope they approach the biennial operating budget with the same under standing," he said. If a tuition increase were to come about, It would probably be in the fall, since the Budget Committee has recom mended this. Hardin said. In Tuesday's legislative action, state senators rejected efforts to cut deeply in to recommended appropriations for t h e University and the state colleges and bur ied an attempt to eliminate the proposed tuition increase. An attempt was made by Terry Car penter of Scoltsbluff to eliminate the pro posed Increase, but his measure was de feated 3-37. Going along with Carpenter's meas ure were Senators Fern Hubbard Orme of Lincoln and Edward Danner of Oma ha. The measure would have added competently," the letter said. "JoAnn's membership on Mortar Board this year dem onstrates the fact that she is a true leader. She has the qualities of a true leader humility, understanding, per severance, intelligence and courage." "She has proven herself to be a true campus leader and a friend to others.

She has proven her loyalty to the Uni versity, to the state, to others, and to the ideals of scholar ship," the letter concluded. The deadline for Outstand ing Nebraskan nominations is Monday. The Nebraskan en courages people to recognize the ones who may deserve this title. w . v , PHOTO BY YABBA starts Thursday, May 20 the women's shot put.

Attempting a reduction In the Univer sity's budget requests was Senator Clifton Batchelder of Omaha. He proposed an amendment calling for a $2.1 million de crease In the request. Batchelder's attempt was defeated 14-26. Other senators speaking on the proposed tuition increase included Elvin Adamson of Valentine. He said that many Ne braskans have to make tax sacrifice! to finance increased building and operat ing costs at the educational institutions, and students should share the burden. Fred Carstens of Beatrice said that he thinks "It's wrong for these young people to believe that we owe them an education." Batchelder said the institutions ar "subsidizing" non-resident students. He proposed cuts representing the difference between amounts paid by out-of-state stu dents and actual costs of educating each student. "Are you here to serve the taxpay ers of this state, or are you here support ing the local chambers of commerce and the educational pressures that are brought to bear?" he asked. Senator George Gerdes of Alliance, budget vice-chairman, said he thought that "this budget has been cut to the bone, I'm sure." He added that further rcduc tlons would "cut down the quality of education." Mrs. Calista Hughes of Humboldt said that she was supporting the com mittee's recommended tuition increases be cause she felt statistics proved present non-resident rates are too low. The only amendment adopted in the Legislature Tuesday earmarked the $8,197,237 recommended by the committee for the College of Medicine at Omaha. Carpenter said that It would prevent any diversion of appropriations from med icine to other branches of the University.
