Take Liquor Positions
By Julie Morris
Senior Staff Writer
Two groups that have
taken stands on the liquor-by-the-drink
proposal
on the Lincoln ballot Nov.
8 are the Lincoln Council of
Churches and the Progress
for Lincoln Committee.
The Council of Churches,
an organization of 44 of the
city's Protestant churches,
has come out against the
proposal by a vote of the
council's executive commit

Faculty Recitals Serve
To Educate. Entertain
Faculty recitals presented
by department of music have
educational as well as enter
tainment value, according to
Eamnuel Wishnow.
Wishnow said that the re
citals enable students to ob
serve finished performances
which serve to attain the
same quality.
For the recital, the indivd
ual professor selects his own
music. The selection may be
either from the past or the
present and the performer
chooses the length of time
that he will perform.
; The recitals have been held
almost since the forming of
the music department and the
public has come to expect
these programs from the fac
ulty, Wishnow said.
Students in certain music
courses are required to attend

bama Smith related a case of
discrimination in counting
ballots that went to the
courts. He stated that the
courts had upheld Negro con
tentions of discrimination in
the race, but bad set m date
for re-elections.
"The decision was reached
by the courts in early 1965.
Since then there have been
no new elections and the regu
lar elections are coming up
shortly," said Smith.
The SNCC representative
stated that the Sunflower
County case proves that "we
can go through no legal chan

"We are supposedly fight

people a chance to vote in

inessman who recently es
tablished their committee,
is actively working for t h e
passage of the proposal
which would allow the sale
of hard liquor by the glass
across the bar in restau
rants, taverns and clubs.
The Council of Churches
issued a statement docu
menting the organization's
reasons for opposing the
measure that included the
following points:
A statement that "all
oersons must be aware of
a certain number of faculty
recitals each year as part of
the course requirements.
Wishnow said that this at
tendance is in addition to the
weekly recitals which the
students themselves present.
There are about 12 to 15 re
citals given each year which
are presented as either a solo
or ensemble program.
The remaining recitals to
be held this semester include
ones by Associate Professor
Arnold Schatz and Professor
Dale B. Ganz on Nov. 15, As
sistant Professor Vernon
Forbes and Associate Profes
sor Wesley Reist on Nov. 29,
Associate Professor Larry
Lusk on Dec. 6, and visiting
Assistant Professor Alberto
Gutana on Jan. 3.
All recitals are held in Shel

Looker said that the five
areas to be canvassed will
be the extreme Northeast
Lincoln and Havelock area,
Central Lincoln In the Vine
Street area, two areas in
West Lincoln, and the Cap
ital Beach area.
He said that Lincoln is
considered to be the ke city
in the state and will prob
ably determine how the fi
nal vote will be decided.
He feels that the Demo
crats will carry Omaha and
the Republicans will carry
out-state areas.
Looker said that he be
lieved that if Lincoln voted
Democratic, then the Dem
ocrats would carry the
state.

African embassies, China and
Russia, in order to embarrass
the country in the world's

group does not expect other
countries to help, but that
these countries will provide
"lip service" to the civil
rights cause.

the tremendous problem of
alchoholism." The state
ment continued that "in
states with package sales
only, the per capita con
sumption of alcohol was
1.31 gallons and the rate of
alcoholism was 2,721 per
10,000; in states with liquor
by the drink the compar
able figures were 2.11 gal
lons consumption per cap
ita and 4.110 alcoholics per
100,000.
The source quoted on this
information was R u t g e r
University 1962 "Quarterly
Journal of Studies on Al
cohol. "Consumption of liquor
in four major Nebraska
cities with bottle club and
package disribution in 1965
averaged 1.58 gallons per
capita. Lincoln was the
lowest with 1.36. In three
major cities with liquor by
the drink, the 1965 per cap
ita consumption was 2.63
gallons.
The quoted, source of
these figures was the state
Liquor Control Commis
sion's Statistics.
A third point in the
statement quotes accident
statistics from the state of
Iowa before and after liquor
by the drink was enacted
that show "obviously drunk
18 before, 60.5 after; drivers
drinking 102 before and 139
after. Total number of ac
cidents and fatalities show
corresponding increases."
The Progress for Lincoln
Committee was formed by a
"a group of business men
more or less spontaneously
over coffee, not liquor, I
hasten to add," Jim Rag
lin, a member of the group
said. Raglin is a partner of
Raglin & Rail Public Re
lations firm.
The committee's slogan
is "Let's Grow Up," Rag
lin said. "In theory we be
lieve that Lincoln is hypo
critical" in present liquor
policies, Raglin said.
The committee is "not ad
vocating a wide open
city," Raglin said. "We be
lieve that we have liquor
in abundance in the city,
but not in the form that is
best to regulate," he said.
The proposed Class C li
censes, providing for liquor-
by-the-drink establishments,
are easier to enforce than
other systems, Raglin said.
If the proposal passes, the
City Council will be given
a chance to establish guide
lines of how many outlets
the city should have, and
the council "could estab
lish, if they chose, a guide
of how many licenses per
1,000 people."
Many cities that have
liquor by the drink control
their liquor licenses on the
basis of one every 1,209
people, Raglin said.
The committee has bought
newspaper and radio ad
v e r t i s i n g and billboard
space to promote their
cause, Raglin said.
YOUNG REPUBLICANS
UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA
To the Students, Faculty and Staff
of the University of Nebraska :
As concerned and active young Americans, we are writing this open letter
to ask you to join with us in voting for Robert V. Denney for Congres in the First
Congressional District.
Bob Denney is a positive and independent man. As proof of his constructive
thinking, the following are some of the proposals he has made during the cam
paign. EDUCATION: Expansion of Federal aid to education on all levels, provided
local control is maintained. Tax credits for parents of those who are study
ing in vocational schools and colleges. Tax credits for teachers and admin
istrators who undertake advanced professional training.
SOCIAL SECURITY: Tie Social Security payments to cost of living index. Fixed
payments now pose a hardship in a period of rising prices. Raise the $1500
exemption on earning limitation for those on Social Security.
AGRI-BUSINESS: Full parity should be the goal, not the promise of the
form program. Government should get out of the marketplace when supply
and demand produce parity. Creation of a County Industrial Agents pro
gram to aid in developing new economic opportunities in small communities.
As a campus organization and as individuals, we strongly recommend Bob
Denney to you.
Respectfully yours,
Cathy Shattuck, President

Music Building Is Completed
While Workmen Enter Classes
Hammering sounds may
interupt a lecture or a
workman may scurry into
a classroom, but classes
are conducted as usual in
the partially completed
music building.
Students and faculty in
terviewed indicated they
don't mind the inconviences
as long as the building is
being completed.
"It's better than the old
building," junior music ma
jor Vicki Varvel comment
ed. Inconviences don't both
er her "as long as they are
finishing the building,"
Miss Varvel said.
Warren Nelson, another
music major, said noise in
the building isn't too bad,
"The workmen hold it down
to a minimum during
class," Nelson said. Class

in the new building "is a lot
better than it would be in
the other building," he add
ed referring to the old mus
ic building, which is one of
the oldest buildings on cam
pus. The three-story building
was scheduled for comple
tion last August 15, but a
summer construction strike
and other delays slowed
work. Another tenative
completion date was Octo
ber 15.
Emmanuel Wishnow,
chairman of the depart
ment mf music said the de
partment expects to be
moving into the ground floor
of the building soon and
noted at most of the work
on this floor and the street
floor had been completed.
He said the department
? , A "3, Vs-J, 4

plans to begin holding its
opera rehersals in the build
ing. Wishnow said that all
five of the classrooms
planned for the building
have been completed and
that classes are being held
and one office are also in
use, he said. All of these
rooms are on the s t r e e t
floor.
When the $1.5 million
building is completed, there
will be 50 practice rooms
and 30 teaching studios
and combined offices in ad
dition to the classrooms and
central office space, Wish
now said.
David Fowler, associate
professor of music educa
tion and the graduate ad
viser, said the present in
conviences of the building
are not a great handicap.
Folwer is the only faculty
member who has moved
into an office in the new
building.
"The old building was a
complete makeshift any
wav," Fowler said. He said
that it did not have any of
the proper facilities need
ed for a music building.
A trip to the third floor
on the tiny elevator reveal
workmen plastering, paint
ing, putting in hearting fix
tures and laying carpets.
Workmen were also busy on
the lower floors completing
details such- as painting
stair railings and working
on the window glass.
One carpet layer, Errol
Eder a part time student
employee, said students
walking through the build
ing interrupt his work, but
added, "I can't say I don't
enjoy watching everyone
go by" as be eyed coeds
leaving the building.
Arichitects for the build
ing, the first of a two phase
program for improving
music facilities, is Hazen
md Robinson of Lincoln.
When the main building is
completed, the old music
building will be torn down
and a music recital hall will
be constructed on the site.
