by the drink question, Coun
cil President Steve Gage said
that "the bars downtown are
able to do it" by the use of
identification.
Member Chip Kuklin said,
"To sustain the conservative
attitude of the State of Ne
braska to the point of stag
nation, I ask that this mo
tion be defeated."
"The student body is not
well enough informed to vote
because of the motion's lack
of sense and ambiguity," add
ed Kuklin.
"If we on the Council are
trying to raise campus in
terest by our -actions, I find
this motion raises campus
interest to the gutter," said
member Susie Moffitt.
"It reflects no attempt for
good government and no
thought. It Doints ud the ridic
ulous ideas that we come up
with sometimes, Momu add
ed.
"For not KDeakine on the
lines of the question under
consideration and for her de
rogatory remarks about the
motion, I move that the pre

Grimit, after Miss Moffitt sat
down.
Grimit then withdrew h i s
privilege (censure motion),
saying that he only desired to
make a point.

The problems, and plans for Nebraska
Hall, formerly known as the Elgin Build
ing, are many, according to Carl ponald
son, University business manager.
The Conservation and Survey Division,
the U.S. Weather Bureau., University
Press, University Print and Duplicating
Laboratory, the Planning and Construc
tion Division, the University computing
center and testing service are the current
occupants of the building.
"Facilities for these occupants were
constructed in phase one," said Donald
son. "In work like this (modifying a build
ing) it is easier to do a lot of it at
once," he said.
Phase two, which consists of construct
ing facilities for several new occupants,
will start early this spring, according to
Donaldson.
The Extension Division, including t h e
audio visual facilities; The School of
Journalism; the University photography
laboratory, and the University telephone
switchboard will move in as soon as the
construction is complete.
"I am crossing my fingers that it will
be next fall, but it will probably be
around this time next year before they
move in," Donaldson said.
The building is also used as a drill hall
for ROTC units, and by various organiza
tions which need a large amount of
room to build backdrops and props for
skits.
Donaldson also pointed out that the up
per floors of the building serve as valu
able storage space for equipment and
furniture for new University buildings. It
was used as a warehouse for the Ne
braska Center for Continuing Education,
and is currently being utilized for the
Sheldon Art Gailery and the new dorm.
"We face some unique problems," said
Donaldson. "Working within and around
the standing walls is quite a bit different
than building a new building suited for
these many needs."

The Long
Cold Line
Continues
If the weather forecast
holds true, the problem of
highway travel to and from
the basketball tournament
may be hazardous. The
weatherman predicts cloudi
ness and rain, possibly chang
ing to snow.
However, if this does hap
pen, things are pretty well
taken care of as far as sleep
ing quarters and food are
concerned. "Operation Mat
ress, 1962," is all planned out.
If such a weather situation
should occur, there are build
ings and various other do
nated housing in Lincoln
which could be used. Indi
vidual buildings can house
anywhere from 50 to 300 per
building, with a total of 2
3,000 from all of the com
bined resources.
If the streets here in Lin
coln should become snow
clogged, trucks from the Uni
versity Job Pool and from
local rental agencies , would
provide transportation to the
housing for the stranded peo
ple.
The Student Union and Sel-
leck Quadrangle would open
up their cafeterias to the peo
ple. They would stay open all
day and part of the nignt un
til all had a place to eat.
Through the insight of Uni
versity officials and of Lin
coln citizens, who look after
their guests, a bad turn by
old man winter could be com
batted with relative ease.

An amendment to submit
the question of NSA affilia
tion to student vote at the
general spring election was
indefinitely tabled by a vote
of 18-12 at Student Council
meeting yesterday.
The amendment was p r o
Dosed bv Council member
Herbie Nore. It would have
submitted the NSA affiliation
question to a student vote only
if the Student Council ap
proved NSA affiliation at the
April 11 meeting.
A motion by Al Plummer
then put the motion for NSA
affiliation back on the table
by a 22-8 Council vote.
This motion can be brought
off the table next week, ac
cording to Judiciary Chair
man Jim Samples.
Then law eolleffe renrescnt-
ative, Bob Grimit, moved to
indefinitely table Nore's
amendment until April 11, af
ter he had SDoken against the
amendment. Ills motion was
ruled out of order on a par
liamentarv technicality.
When Council President
Steve Gage again recognized
Grimit to restate his motion
that it might be in order,
member Nancv Butler moved
to censure president Gage for
showing favoritism in recog
nizins Grimit. Another mem
her (Nore) had asked lor rec
ognition before Grimit after
he had first yielded the lloor.
she said.
The motion to censure
Gage was defeated by a vote
of 28 to 2.
Miss Nore, in introducing
the amendment, said, "Since
the Student Council is moving
into a new area not covered
by- the present Council con
stitution (by proposing NSA
affiliation), we need the ap
proval of the student body."
Business Administration rep
resentative Bill Gunlicks said
that in a random survey that
he took of some 50 students in
his college this week, not a
single person favored bringing
the question of NSA affiliation
before the student body.
"Student do not feel tney
are well enough acquainted
with the NSA to be able to
competently vote on the is
sue," Gunlicks said. He asked
that the Council, which is
well-informed, decide the
question.
"If the University affiliates
with the, NSA, the actions of
the NSA and the simple fact
of our affiliation will reflect
back on the entire student
body and the University,"
said representative Chip Kuk
lin. Samples pointed out that if
the question of NSA affilia
tion would be voted down by
the student body at the gen
eral election, this vote would
be final in deciding the question.
Miss Nore believed that the
same percentage of students
would not be informed on the
NSA in the general election
as the percentage of btuaent
Pniincil members that would
not be informed on the ques
tion April 11.
"The Student council snouia
not take the easy way out In
the .question of NSA affilia
tion by handing over tne
question to the student body,"
said member Dave Scholz.
"When the NSA study com
mittee submits its report on
April 11, Council members
will not have an opportunity
to discuss the NSA affilia
tion question with the s t u
dents they represent in the
light of the study committee
report," said member Susie
Moffitt, "if we vote on the
NSA affiliation question that
same day."

medicine, osteopathy, vet
erinary medicine, theology,
and law for students who
have completed one year will
be automatically granted.

according to a ROTC spokes
man. Approval or denial of stu
dent applications for defer
ment will be forwarded to the
applicants no later than
March 20.
Parking 'Gamblers' Suffer Heavy Fines
By WENDY ROGERS
Campus "gamblers" have
suffered rather heavy losses
this year.
Many parking-space-seekers
gambled a few pennies
against a dollar ticket last
semester a major contri
bution to the $7,100 total in
meter revenues through the
end of the first semester.
According to Campus Police
Capt. Eugene Masters, when
a parking meter shows time
left, many will gamble that
they have enough time to
compete their errands.
"It may be two hours or
two minutes," said Masters,
"but as long as there is a
chance, people will take it."
Other brave souls just fail
to plan ahead.
Sure a nickel gives you
an hour you put a nickel
in for a one hour class

GRUESOME HUNGRY TWOSOME
Don't forget-you all it's up to us-united we stand loyal always-sarcastic
never-to shout as one we shall never fail to feed the hungry the parking meters.
BUT a teacher doesn't let
class out on the second
you have maybe three
minutes to sprint furiously to
the meter god or off goes
your head plus a dollar fine,
.lust one more nennv
would save a dollar any
miser can see that.
Here's another problem that
seems to stump even campus
geniuses finding the right
slot for the dime.
Y'see, there are two little
slots on each meter one
for pennies and nickels, and
one for DIMES and the
catch is if y'do put a dime
in the nennv-nickel slot its
tough watermelon pickles
and you lose a dollar because
no time is given at all.
Then of course there's the
ultra-stumper that is
which meter goes with which
stall? Little arrows are
painted on the concrete from
nnst to stall in the Union
parking lot but snow on
the ground spells; utter catastrophe.
Advice from Capt. Masters
pick the meter that faces
you while you're sitting in
the car.
Well mustn't forget the
absent minded geniuses
those who can't recall that
there ARE narking meters
now on the North S e 1 1 e c k
parking lot.
You have to think hard to
fnriret it. but it is done

Gather round chill'un and
vou shall hear not about
old Paul Revere's sprint, but
an example of how you don t
always get out of something
what you put into it like
a parking meter.
It's like this there are
mostly four-hour parking
meters, and some two-hour
parking meters on this cam
pus but there just aren't
any six, eight, ten or 200 hour
meters and I don't care
if you do put FIVE nickels
in a four-hour meter y'still
y'still only get four hour to
dash madly about the campus
and accomplish your reasons
for being here.
Now if vou wanta complain
about never being able to find
a slot for your Model I, try
the North Selleck lot - but
I warn you it'll cost money
however, what doesntr

that y'can just drive right
