On the corner of 17th and
Vine Streets lives a petite
lady the last remaining
resident of that area between
Twin Towers and Nebraska
Hall. Miss Mabel Clements,
who has 1 i v e d in the same
house for 41 years after mov
ing there from Wilber, said,
"I've seen them build most
everything around here."
When she first moved to
the location she recalled, the
University's library occupied
a building on 10th Street (Ar
chitecture Hall) with the
Schools of Music and Law
nearby, thus making that the
main part of campus. The
University has done most of
its expansion to the north.
When asked if she had no
tired anv changes in the Uni
versity students over the
years, Miss Clements said in
a slow, kind manner, "Well,
1 just never paid much at
tention to them."
The friendh white-haired
woman recalled that there
used to be a lot of women in
her block that took in stu
dent boarders, but she said,
"They were all canned for
the Towers."
Miss Clements said that the
houses next to her used to
be "so thick you could spread
out your arms and touch
them."
The University took the
corner houses on 16th and
Vine Streets out first to build
the Alpha Chi Omega soror
ity house. It was eventually
followed by an annex and a
parking lot which necessita
ted the removal of more
houses.
"Now," she said, "I'm the
onlv one left, and I don't like
it!"
Seated comfortably in front
of her television set, Miss
Clements said that she hesi
tates to make repairs on her
house.
"I hate to put so much
money into the house because
I don't know when the Uni
versity will decide they want
it," she explained.
Miss Clements may have a
difficult time if and when she
moves because her home is
filled with china plates, knick
Union Plans
For Bowl
Trip
Planes are reserved.
So are 400 hotel accommoda
tions in each of three cities.
Even tickets for 400 at the
game have been taken care of.
In fact, everything has been
planned except where the
plane is going and which hotel
reservations will be used. . .
and that depends on which
bowl the Huskers play in.
The Nebraska Union will
again sponsor a trip to the
bowl game for University
students although they will
not know to which bowl for a
while.
According to Richard Scott,
assistant program manager of
the Union, this year's trip will
be longer than previous trips.
It will last four days and three
nights.
Reservations have been
made in Dallas for the Cotton
Bowl, in Miami for the Orange
Bowl and in New Orleans for
the Sugar Bowl from Wednes
day, Dec. 29 to Sunday, Dec.
2. Scott said that as soon as a
bowl invitation has been ac
cepted, two sets of reserva
tions will be canceled.
Scott said there would be
room for 4O0 students on the
trip and that the cost would
be "a bit higher than in the
past because we hope to in
crease the time spent."
Two years ago the trip to
Miami cost $150 and last year
the trip to Dallas cost $125.
Complete details will be
available as soon as we know
where we're going, according
to Scott.

Of prime importance to her
is an owl clock which has a
pendulum and ticks as it
swings. She spoke warmly of
the clock: "It doesn't keep
good time, but I like to hear
it run."

Tho University's new Marie
Sandoz Hall is likely to be
completed by the beginning of

"I think it's unrealistic to
think that we can find 448
w?omen living locally or en
tering the University who will
be able to move in," said Ed
ward Bryan, director of hous
ing. "We will transfer some
staff and switchboard help
from the other dorms, but
this will be a small number,"
he said. "We will be dis
couraging movement from the
other halls because of man
agement and financial rea
sons." A large number of trans
fers would reduce the other
dorms' income, he said, with
out decreasing their overhead.
"The dorms will be ready
for full occupancy next
fall," he said, "when we can

Abel Residents Petition
Railroads On Switching
Ever thought the noise dur
ing study hours was enough
to railroad you out of your
room?
The noise of the railroad
cars being switched near Abel
Residence Halls seemed to af
fect 264 residents that way.
The boys signed a petition
requesting the Rock Island
Railroad either to switch the
cars in some other area in
Lincoln or to switch them at
seme other time other than
study hours.
"We thought about sending
the petition to the railroad,"
commented one Abel resident,
"but as things stand now we
aren't going to because I
doubt if it would do any good."

Kingery Construction Co. is
nearing completion of their
construction of the dormitory,
said Bryan.
"The side panels are on,
and the window frames and

The furniture budget is be

Record Number
In Night Classes
An all-time record of 2.686
course registrations for Uni
versity evening classes has
been reported.
Edor Ellingson. supervisor
of evening classes, said fall
registrations are up 157 from
last year's total of 2,529 which
exceeded the previous record
of 2,245 established after
World War II and again in
1963.
The course registrations in
clude 1,668 adult enrollments,
those who are not carrying 12
or more hours, and 1,018 cam
pus student enrollments, those
carrying 12 hours or more.
"The continuing increase in
adult registrations is ap
parently due to more interest
in continuing education," El
lingson said. "The number of
Air Force personnel enrolled
has declined from 176 a year
ago to 102 this year."

Student Senate passed a
government bill Wednesday
which calls for the formation
of a committee to study the
entire area of student rules
and conduct.
Kent Neumeister, president
of the Association of Student,
of the University of Nebraska
(ASUN), who introduced the
bill, said this committee would
study the entire scope of stu
dent conduct and the decision

Schorr Discusses
German Unification
By Ruth Hagedorn
Junior Staff Writer
Daniel Schorr, CBS News
Bureau Chief in Bonn. Berlin,
said Thursday that there is a
"subtle, hardly y e t visible
change in European sentiment
toward the United States."
He used as an example that
the fact that last year stu
dens from Berkeley sent
letters to universities around
the world asking them to join
U. S. students in protesting
the war in Viet Nam.
Since students at Sophia
University in Bulgaria had
just recently participated in a
demonstration, U. S. officials
the: j were worried what
would happen. Strangely
enough, he said when the day
arrived there were no demon
strations in Sophia, Budapest,
Prague or Moscow.
Schorr said that "some
thing strange is happening"
because in these Communist
countries, all demonstrations
must be government sanction
ed. "What is happening in Eur
ope? Well, it has something
to do with China. Everything
has something to do with
China," remarked Mr. Schorr.
"When the Chinese foreign
minister invites both the
Soviet Union and the United
States to invade China, it
makes us common enemies."
The Russians realize, as
manv other European coun
tries that the United States
is fighting their potential
enemy in Viet Nam. President
Tito, Schorr said, stated that
"he hoped America would not
get out of Viet Nam because
it would leave a vacuum that
only China could fill."
With t h e Soviet Union's
troubles at home and troubles
with China, a different

plained. Vague Rules
Neumeister said the cam
pus handbook lists some
vague rules, "but that these
nubious rules should be more
definite and clarified. They
definitely leave many ques
tions unanswered."
For example the rules need
to clarify if a student can be

Schorr said that "The Com
munists are turning their
attention more and more to
Germany as they turn it less
and less to America."
Sixty per cent of Germany
today represents a new gen
eration who are on the whole
very progressive and are anti
Nazi. Their talk is mostly
concerned with German
unification. With the building
of the Berlin wall, the prob
lem of German unification be
came a personal one.

The United States has a
plan whereby Germans would

Germany a hand in nuclear

probably want to discuss de

Mr. Schorr ended with a

the civil court and the
ad-
ministration, he stated.
He said the rights of stu
dents over 21 as compared to
younger students need to be
explained and that student
publication rights need to be
defined.
Will Not Attack
"I want to emphasize that
this committee will not attack
rules or policies, but only
study the entire area of the
rules and the decision making
process to clarify exactly
what these rules and pro
cesses of making the rules
are," Neumeister stressed.
He explained that the nubi
ous line between student gov
ernment's part in this decision
making process and the part
of administration, the Faculty
Senate and other bodies needs
to be made clear.
Neumeister said this com
mittee would include the
chairmen of the welfare, faculty-senate,
faculty student re
lations, activities, public is
sues and student opinion com
mittees. The committee will
also include the Senate execu
tive members, the president
and vice president of ASUN
and the student government's
two faculty advisers.
Before the bill to set up a
committee on student rules
was presented, another mo
tion suggested by Sen. Ron
Pfeifer was passed which
tabled last week' drinking
study proposal indefinitely.
Three other motions passed
by Senate Wednesday con
cerned a campus FM station,
an increase in bus service be
tween East and city campus
and a speakers brochedure.
Student Senate passed a mo
tion which said it went on
record as supporting the con
cept of an FM radio station
a : for the University and encour
I aging that steps be taken to
establish such a station on
campus.
Enhancing Culture
Sen. Gary Larson, who in
troduced this motion, said
the station would be used by
the students with the "pur
pose of enhancing the cultur
al and academic atmosphere
of our campus as well as im
proving communication with
the University and Lincoln
community."
Larson pointed out that his
cultural affairs commit
tee with the help of a Student
Action lor Government Ef
fectiveness (SAGE) commit
tee had prepared a study to be
presented to Dean Ross on the
feasability of a campus FM
station.
He explained that such a
station would be completely

be receivable on all campus
and many Lincoln FM radios
within a several mile radius.
Broadcast Speeches
A station of this type could
broadcast tapes made of
speeches, it could compliment
articles in the Daily Nebras
kan on many subjects, it could
broadcast classical music and
"just plain work the same as
a regular FM station which is
University orientated," Lar
sen said.
Larsen noted that this sta
tion would not eliminate the
journalism school's AM sta
tion, KNUS, and that the jour
nalism school had already
promised full support and co
operation with the project.
He said that the original
cost of the station would be
between $4200 and $9000, but
that once it is started the sta
tion would cost only between
$300 and $500 a year.
'Red Rider'
Another motion passed by
Senate recommends an exten
sion of the "Red Rider" bus
service hours between East
and City campus.
The motion specifically calls
for service on Monday, Tues
day, Wednesday and Thursday
between 7:05 a.m. and 10:05
p.m.; on Saturday from 8:05
a.m. until 12:05 p.m. and on
Sunday from 1:35 p.m. until
10:35 p.m. The Friday service
would continue to be the
same as the present regular
week day service which runs
between 7:05 a.m. and 6:05
p.m. There is presently no
service on Saturday or Sun
day. Sen. Dave Snyder, who is
chairman of the parking com
mittee and who introduced the
motion, said this increase in
service was badly needed for
students on East campus who
have night classes during the
week on City campus and for
people on City campus who
need to study in the East
campus library.
Social Interaction
"Increased bus service
would create more social in
teraction between the cam
puses and lend to a more cog
nizant relationship between
the residents of the two cam
puses," he stressed.
Snyder pointed out that this
increased bus service could
not possibly be self supporting
as the daily bus service is
now, but that it was a service
badly needed by many stu
dents. A motion presented by Sen.
Pam Wood calling for the
Senate's support behind the
publication of a speakers' bro
chure was passed by the Sen
ate. Sen. Wood explained that
the Senate would work with
the Nebraska Union and other
campus organizations in or
ganizing a list of faculty and
other people who can speak
at different meetings.
Senators To Meet
Students Friday
A reception will be held
Friday at 3:30 p.m. in t h e
Nebraska Union for the execu
tive committee of the Nebras
ka Unicameral.
Cathie Shattuck, who is
chairman of the ASUN sen
ators committee, said that all
students were urged to come
and visit with the senators on
an informal and personal
basis.
