Another Gripe . . .
GRIPE, GRIPE, GRIPE ... and this time we feel that
it is justified! , , ,
Probable one of the biggest complaints these days
from non-veteran students anyway is the price that must
be paid for text books! Books were expensive last year,
but now it seems to require a small fortune to purchase
even the minimum of books required for a student.
For example, one junior girl complains that she had
to pay approximately twice as much for books this fall as
she did last semester when she was carrying three more
credit hours than she is at present. She is just one of the
thousands of students who are crowding into the book
stores on campus paying exorbitant prices.
Another complaint heard frequently this year is the
fact that so many of the instructors seem to be changing
textbooks each year making it practically impossible to
obtain a used book. Even if a student is lucky enough to
obtain a used book, it is usually as expensive as new books
were last year! . ,
More disatisfaction is being caused by the fact that
many students are told when they go to the bookstores
that they need three or four books for one subject which,
of course, sometimes adds up to more money than was paid
to take the course. Many students are paying as much as
$15 for the books required in a single course.
One reason why the high prices of books have not been
noticed considerably until this year is because a goodly
percentage of the enrollment until this year has been vet
eran Vets do npt, of course have to worry about how much
books cost or how much equipment they have to buy since
the government pays and pays. -Therefore, it has not
mattered to them how much they have been charged.
However, this year there are more non-Veterans than
there have been for several years and more people are be
ginning to realize the ridiculous prices for text-books and
equipment. , : , .. .
Since all students must have books, however, it is
obvious that it would be impossible to urge an outright
boycott of bookstores on the campus. However, there is a
possible solution. If the administration will do nothing
about getting decent book prices, even in the Regents store,
why not have a student-operated book-store under the of
ficial sanction of some organization such as the student
council ... a store that would be operated at cost with a
guarantee of the lowest prices possible with profit only
for the operation of the store.
We appeal to both the administration and the Student
Council to consider this problem seriously and do some
thing about it!

Hats off to the Rag for uncover
ing another unsavory "mess"
which stems directly from A. J.
Lewandowski's office.
It seems to us, that the stu
dents are no longer important to
the university, as evidenced by
the lack of cooperation and fair
play by university officials. It
took a student demonstration to
finally get something done about
the parking situation. What will it
take to get something done about
this disgusting situation which has
arisen about student football
tickets?
In supporting the football team,
who comes first, the students, or
some big-wig business men around
the state, who might become irri
tated If they don't get seats on the
fifty yard line? Well, right now
the students are rather indignant
at the way they are getting push
ed out of the stadium into vne
iiminr hirh "knot-hole" sections.
Besides sitting in the bleachers,
several hundred students are in
the balcony what gives?
Why should veterans wives be
permitted to have a priority when
it romps to pettine a block of
tickets, when they aren't even stu
dents of the universny:
As far y school spirit is con
cerned, after this mess, who wants
to support a university that does
nnt sunnflrt its students. Potsy
Clark has worked hard, and so
have all the football players, ana
tho students want to suDDort them.
because we feel this year is going
to be Nebraska's year. We're not
condemning Potsy or the team,
but merely the university officials.
With students scattered from the
0 to 0 yard line, from the bleach
ers to the balcony, how can you
expect the cheerleaders to pull out
yells from half a dozen different

sections at the same time? You
might as well put bleachers on top
of Avery lab, and furnish portable
radios.
Mr. Lewandowskl states that
student sales have reached S.341,
more than were anticipated. Didn't
he have the foresight to find out
approximately how many student
there would be In this university?
How many seats are in the sta
dium anyway . . about 30,000 or
more. With only some 8,000 stu
dents getting season tickets. It
doesn't quite make sense that
there isn't room enough to put ev
eryone ir. the stadium.
Just because the poor students
(who by the way, spend 30 million
dollars during their four year col
lppe course, that's all ten thousand
nf thp nnnr studpnts onlv SDend
$7.20 for a season ticket, is not a
reason why their seats shouldn t
h as pooH if not better than some
of the friends and business ac
quaintances of university officials,
who pay $15.00 for their tickets
for m;ivhe thev tret a knock down
price). Speaking of knock down
prices, we know oi one jn ciud
alum who received a season ticket
for $2.00 and will sit on approxi
mately the 50-yard line in the
West Stadium.
A. J. Lewandowski stated that
the 200 students who will be sit
ting in the bleachers for the Iowa
State game will sit in the stadium
for the Notre Dame game and
thereafter. If the demand for
tickets is so great that it necessi
tates putting these studer.tr. in the
bleachers and balconies for' the
Iowa game, it doesn't seem plausi
ble that they will ever get to sit
in the stadium. Just measure the
drawing card of the Notre Dame
and UCLA game.
It looks as though enough
tickets have been sold twice. The
seals which rightfully belong to
200 students have been re-sold
some how or another. Someone
must be making a lot of money out
of this game. Whatever or
whoever is doing it, may be mak
ing money, but is certainly creat
ing enemies.
The student organizations
should somehow delegate a repre
sentation to present facts and
figures to a Board of Regents
meeting which wilL be held Sat
urday. Signed: Dissatisfied Students.
