POOL?! For girls? You bet!
By popular female demand
(he Women's Athletic Associa
tion has announced their prob

night co-recreational pool
games in conjunction with the
Nebraska Union.
It was brought to the atten
tion of WAA thai many girls
know how and like to play
pool but feel rather strange
doing so in what seems to be
the 'Man's Corner" of the
Union. The WAA is now taking
the final steps in remedying
the situation by making pool

"Extramural" sports, which
are set up as a supplement to
the intramurals, are another
new feature of WAA. They in
clude such sports as field
hockey, basketball, valleyball,
bowling, tennis, badminton,
riflery, and and are played
between colleges.
"These sports were set up
for people interested in intra
murals but wanting to go
fTther," according to K a y
Huffaker, WAA president.
The field hockey season,
which included games against
Doane, Wesleyan, and Con
cordia has been concluded.
Bawling began its season
against Kansas. Basketball
and volleyball are just being
organized.
"Stimulating the girls and
practicing are the main prob
lems" according to Miki Mc
Cartney, co-ordinator. She
stated that 20 interested col
leges have already been heard
from and that it would not be
difficult to line up enough
games for the irls.
Basketball and volleyball

as possible playing each week

have not as yet been named,

Practices for all sports will be
held on Friday afternoons at

YR's To Hear Thone
Speak This Thursday
A former nominee for lieu

Thursday evening at 7:30 p.m
in the Nebraska Union.
Thone, a Lincoln attorney,
lost the lieutenant governor
race by less than 3,000 votes
in 1964. He has been an ad

in order to understand their
courses, but we also look for
those students who know and
are interested in U.S. history
and government and are well
read on U.S. policies and for
eign affairs," Esquenazi said.
He said that the State De
partment finances these ex
change programs. The stu
dents receive health and acci
dent insurance, a round trip
ticket by jet airline from Lin
coln to Mexico City, and $30
a month spending money.
He added that a current tot
al of $55,000 in scholarships to
the college Is now available
for participants in the ex
change programs.
The students were chosen by
the Latin American Studies
Committee which includes
Lloyd Teale, romance langu
ages. The purpose of the program,
according to the committee,
is to help Americans compre
hend and interpret the com
plex interplay of hemisphere
events. This is thought to be
necessary because of the
emergence of Latin Ameri
cans to the foreground in
world affairs.
This is the fourth year that
University students have been
sent to El Colegi" de Mexico.
Twenty students have partici
pated in the exchange program.

Sen. Andy Taube announc
ed in Senate Wednesday that
the University Athletic De
partment will waive the iden
tification requirement for fans
holding student tickets at the
Oklahoma game on Thanks
giving Day.
Taube, who is chairman of
the student welfare commit
tee, said that an opinion poll
conducted by his committee
had shown that 30 per cent of
the students in the East sta
dium and 40 per cent of the
students in the South stadium
will not be at the Oklahoma
game Thanksgiving Day.
He explained that because
of the results of this poll his
committee had met with Jim
Pittengcr, ticket manager,
and Tippy Dye, athletic di
rector, to discuss how the
stadium would look on nation
al television that day if many
students are gone.
Taube said that many of
these students would be sell
ing their tickets anyway, so,
in talks with University offi
cials, his commiteee suggest
ed the exchange of tickets
for this particular game might
as well be "over the table
and legal and at the same
time fill the empty seats in
the stadium.
He stressed that ordinarily
it is against University rules
for a student to sell or give
his student ticket to another
individual and that the ath
letic department's decision
resulted only because of the
circumstances in this definite
case.
Taube quoted Dye as say
ing, "Holders of student tick
ets for the nationally-televised
Big Eight game will be ad
mitted without an identifica
tion card because of the un
usual circumstances of this
game."
The announcement from the
Athletic Department further
pointed out that waiving of
the identification procedure
will enable students who will
up lists must be turned in to
the Red Cross mailbox in the
Union by Tuesday, Nov. 23.
Donors will then receive ap
pointment cards by mail.
The bloodmobile has a lim
it of 220 pints. If more stu
dents volunteer, donors will
be taken from each group in
proportion to the number on
their sign-up list, Miss Wilde
said. Those students not able
the bloodmobile back second
semester," Miss Wilde said.
It will probably be booked up
until spring, she said.
In the past, students wish
ing to donate blood have
added their names to the don
or lists at Lincoln hospitals,
Fuenning said. Donors re
ceive $25 for each pint of
blood.
Although the call for blood
donation has not gone out to
the campus as a whole be
fore, separate living units
sucb as fraternities have do
nated blood as a group, ac
cording to Malcom Towne,
chief technician at the Vet
erans Hospital blood bank.
All volunteers must be at
least 18 years old to donate
blood. Those under 21 and un
married must have paren
tal consent. Consent cards will
be enclosed with the letters
to organizations and living
units, Miss Wilde said.
Donors must be free from
any significant illness a month
before the date of their do
nation. They must also be free
of alergy or hay fever sym
toms at the time of the do
nations, and not have had
any major surgery or blood
transfusions within the last
six months. They should not
have had undulant fever in
the past wo vears.
Anyone who has had jaun
dice, or been In close con
tact with the disease recent
ly is also eliminated. Malar
ia, diabetes or pregnancy
within the past year also
eliminates donors.

ing to pass their tickets on
without fear of penalty, for
this game only.
Dye said according to the
release, "We realize that the
game will be played on
Thanksgiving Day and many
students will be home and un
able to attend. However we
want as many people as pos
sible to fill the stands so that
we can have a large crowd
for the national TV audience.
"It is for this reason that
we are waiving identification
and permitting the students
to pass on their tickets to oth
er people who may desire to
see the game."
Abel Residents Reecf
By Steve Jordan
Junior Staff Writer
A majority of Abel Hall
residents voted to approve
their first constitution yester
day, but the two-thirds vote
needed to ratify the document
was not reached.
A 56 per cent favorable ma
jority, 402 for and 310 against,
was not high enough for rati
fication as provided by the
document.
Over 70 per cent of Abel's
1,000 residents voted on the
constitution, which had been
drawn up by a convention of
house presidents and dele
gates that began meeting
Oct. 14.
"A convention will have to
meet to draw up another pro
posal," Roger Doerr, chair
man of the old convention,
said. "They will have to start
from scratch or re-approve
each section and re-submit it
to the residents."
Doerr said that probably the

ostponed Until Mid-December
By Jan Itkin
Junior Staff Writer
The final decision as to
whether or not Mari Sandoz
Hall will be open for second
semester will be made
sometime in mid-December,
according to M. E. Bryan,
director of housing.
"It will take us until then
to get the figures together,"
Bryan said. "The two ma
jor issues involved are
whether the building itself
will be finished and jeady
for occupancy and whether
there will be enough people
to justify opening the hall,"
he added.
"We must consider
whether the income would
support the overhead," he
continued. "That will de
pend on the number of new
students, Lincoln residents
and people who think their
present housing is inade
quate and will want to trans
ier into dormitory housing.
If the hall is not opened
second semester, he said, it
will remain closed until the
summer or fall. "It isn't
practical to open a dorm
after the semester ha?
started," he said.
Bryan said that he hat
reason to believe the con
tract was "going along pret
ty well." He added that the
purchasing department has

Furnish Funds
For Services
Student Health, the Daily
Nebraskan and the Nebraska
Union all receive portions of
the $37 in fees which stu
dents carrying over six hours
pay along with their tuition.
According to Robert Wil
liams, comptroller, the mo
ney will be distributed this
year in the same manner it
was in the past when the
amount of fees was $30 a stu
dent. The seven dollar increase
in fees will be budgeted each
year "as activities justify their
n(?ed for further assistance for
that year."
"This seven dollars will
probably not be used as 'fire
call' funds to balance an over-
drawn budget," Williams
stressed. "The groups should
try to anticipate their fiscal
j needs and submit them when
I applying for their annual allot
ments, he said.
The current budget includes
the Union debt service (which
pays for the bonds for the

Homecoming queen and is
therefore included under t ft e
express power granted in Art.
IV, Sec. 1 (C) as a phase of
'conducting' the election," ac
cording to the Senate's peti
tion.
Miss Muff requests specifi
cally in her petition "a declar
atory judgment stating that
the power to establish the in
terviewing board for Home
coming queen rests with the
Tassels organization."
The constitution of the.
ASUN in Article IV, Section 1
gives the Association the pow
er "to recognize all proposed
new student organizations and
to approve their constitutions;
but in no part of the constitu
tion of the Association is the
power granted to amend and
or alter the constitutions of the
existing student organizations
by a legislative enactment of
the Student Senate," her peti
tion asserts.
Her petition stresses that
since such power to establish
such an interviewing board is
expressly delegated in Article
X of the Constitution of t h e
Tassels organization, such
legislation by the Student
Senate is a de facto amend
ment and-or alternation of the
Constitution of the Tassels or
ganization. The Senate petition says that
when the Student Senate acts
under the authority of specific
grants of power such as the
election clause, the ASUN by
its action, pre-empts that part
cular area of activity to the
exclusion of any other campus
organization. Contrary provi
sions which may exist in the
constitutions of subordinate or
ganizations are suspended
from operation until the Asso
ciation has withdrawn from
the area of activity in ques
tion. The Senate petition requests
that the court declare that the
power of the Tassel organiza
tion to establish an interview
ing board for the Homecom
ing candidates depends on if
the ASUN uses its prerogative
to enter this field or not un
der its expressed power to co
duct elections of general Uni
versity interest.
ASUN President Kent Neu

to decide on these petitions at

He explained the differ

saying that while the other
halls are 13 stories high and
therefore make every-floor
service impractical, Sandoz
