-Union building
The wind howled. The rain fell
in torrents. The pitch black sky
was rent with streaks of fire that
illuminated the heavens. Anyway,
it was a bad night.
Suddenly a terrific crash made
merrymakers in the Student Union
put fingers to their ears. Holding
lone vigil in the NEBRASKAN of
fice, Editor-in-cheif Howard Kap
lan felt the building shake.
It all happened during Saturday
night's rainstorm but nobody knew
that lightning had struck the
Union until Sunday morning when
Chief Custodian Charles Itoahts
saw a hunk of roof railing missing
from the southwest corner. Fur
ther examination disclosed a fe'
slate shingles gone from the roof.
The block of cement from the rail
ing was found buried a foot in tin
ground. Luckily nobody was standing
where the stone fell. Director Ken
neth Van Sant is considering in
stalling lightening rods.
