Page 4 THE DAILY NEBRASKAN Tuesday, November 26, 1946 UN Regents Recommend Budget Hike The board of regents consulted with Governor Dwight Griswold Saturday on a state appropriation of $6,500,000 for the biennium 1947-49, to meet increased costs of operation and maintenance at the university, according to a release from the State Tax Commissioner's office. This represents an increase of 44 percent over the state funds appropriated for the present bien ium, and would be raised by prop erty taxes. The Regents submitted a total expense budget for the biennium of $10,103,194. Of this, they an ticipated federal appropriations of $433,045; endowment income of $70,149; requested state funds of $6,500,000; and $3,000,000 in stu dent tuition and fees. Requested Increase. Most of the requested increase is to add instructors to accommodate the record enrollment, and to in crease the salaries of present fac ulty members. The regents asked to employ 204 new instructors, at an average wage of $2,355. A sal ary increase of t.8 percent is sug gested to partly meet increased living costs for the present 910 employes in the instructorial de partment. Enrollment this semester is a record 10,250, as compared with 4,009 students in 1945 when the budget for the present biennium was drawn up. Balance Sum The balance of the requested increase is to be used to hire cas ual employes, readers, laboratory assistants, and a $314,567 appro priation for maintenance and equipment. The regents made no request for building funds, but pointed out the need for $3,479,500 in the follow ing new buildings during the next two years: Klrrtrirnl enclrtperlne hiillilinc and miulpmpnt S47S.OOO Trni-hern ecillrce lulxirnlnry n1 niiilpiiMMit 575.000 Sliiili'ti! hcHllh fflr mid equip ment 200.

Vet Organization Hears Chancellor at Dinner Speak Chancellor R. G. Gustavson was the leading speaker at a Thanks giving dinner given Saturday night by the Student Veterans or ganization. Praising the work of the vet- BV PAT TOOF. Just one more day til vacation is the chant of UN populace, as eager students look forward to long-awaited freedom. Omaha seems to be the favored place for plans of "get-togethers," but more about that later . . . The vicious circle of Bill Bar rett, Patty Guhin, and Stan Nord gren might possibly be disin tegrating since Patty's unidentified date of Sunday night seems to be steppinng into the spotlight to claim the show. More jewelry changed hands last week when Howie Esser gave up his Phi Psi pin to hang beside Carolyn Westervelt's Gamma Phi pin . . . Don Forke is still waiting for just such an opportunity with Phil Craadell as the girl in mind. Same Old Story. A couple that is becoming more popular week by week is that of Jo Landwerkamp and "Scotty" Christian . . . and tho Jerry Gard ner and Nancy Lowry haven't gotten around to calling their dating steady, the constancy of it s becoming obvious. Big blonde Hank Anderson is still playing the field, according to all outside appearances, but he gave frat brothers the idea of readiness to settle down after hit- date with Mary Ester Dunkin last Saturday night. Incidentally, the casual dating of Marv Curtis and Lynn Nordgren, who saw a lot of! each other last weekend, appears to have hit a new high. Troubles. Popular candidate for the week is Mary Ann Moyle who is di viding her time between fraternity brothers Tom Cornish and Keith Manning. Norma Lee Wyenburg seems to be having the same trouble in deciding how to spend her Sunday nights. Try as they might, some of the SAE's and their dates failed to convince the manager at Lone Oaks Saturday night that they were employes of the Terminal Drug and were forced to give up their table and have their din ner elsewhere. Of interest to many readers is marriage of Gene Hughes and Shirley Olsen which took place in Omaha last Sunday. New Steadies. More romantic news of a less serious nature concerns the new steadies . . . Luana Nelson and Jim Sharp have joined the ranks of the all time daters, with Gene May born and Arlene Peterson follow ing suit. Rumor has it that Bill Orr and Dot Manion will be on the list after vacation. More sweets for the AOPi house were furnished last night when Marilyn Strong showed off her new diamond to best avantage and brought Dick Schultz over for the not-so-hard-to-take line. Parting remark is dedicated to Jack Selzer, who seems to get a kick out of dating his fraternity brother's feminine interests. Move the knife over, fellow, . . . it's hurting my back! eran students and assuring them that the University is doing every thing it can to secure more hous ing for them as soon as possible, the chancellor said, "Nothing hurts me more than to know that there are married veterans on the campus who are unable to have their families with them." In closing he expressed the hope that the veterans will take an in telligent and vocal interest in world problems so that they can make the world a better place in which to live that they will not lose what they fought to save.
