A motion by Law College
representative Bob Grimit
that the Student Council go on
record as favoring liquor by
the drink for Lincoln was de
feated in
Council
meeting
W e d n e s
day by a vote
of 29 to 1.
G r i mit's
motion also
asked that
the question
of liquor by
the drink be
put on t h e Grimit
ballot at the spring general
electidh so that students 21
years of age and over could
express their opinion on the
issue.
"The great number of stu
dents at the University are
vitally interested in the ques
tion of liquor by the drink,"
said Grimit, "especially those
whom I represent in L a w
College, who are over 21."
Asked how it would be pos
sible to determine whether a
student was 21 or over and
eligible to vote on the liquor
LIQUOR BY DRINK
"WHEREAS, the Student Council
hu apparently deemed It desirable
that the students express opinion on
matters outside the domain of the
University l and
"WHEREAS, It Is desirable that
the students have a voice in matters
directly affectlnc their welfare i and
"WHEREAS, there has been no
attempt to obtain the opinions of
the students of this University on
many activities taken within the city
of Lincoln ; and
WHEREAS, the students are wide
ly known as pleasure-lovlnc indi
viduals; therefore,
"RESOLVED, that the Student
Council roes on record as being in
favor of liquor by the drink within
the city of Lincoln in accordance with
the present campaign to that effect,
and further
"RESOLVED, that this auestion be
attached to the general ballot at the
general election so that the students
over 1 years of age may express
their approval or disapproval upon
this most ImoorUot matter."
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 points up the ridic
ulous ideas that we come up
with sometimes," Moffitt add
ed. "For not speaking on the
lines of the question under
consideration and for her de
rogatory remarks about the
motion, I move that the pre
vious speaker (Miss Moffitt
be censure d," said Bob
Grimit, after Miss Moffitt sat
down.
Grimit then withdrew h i s
privilege (censure motion),
saying that he only desired to
make a point.
Second Vice-President Jim
Samples suggested that law
students interested in t h i s
question circulate a petition
to all students on campus of
age 21 or over.

Nebraska Hall Remodeling
Moves Iiito Second Phase
By MIKE MACLEAN
The problems, and plans for Nebraska
Hall, formerly known as the Elgin Build
ing, are many, according to Carl Donald
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.

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 night 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.

Rejects Proposal
For Campus Vote
Over Affiliation
Defeats Butler Motion
To Censure Steve Gage
By TOM KOTOUC '
An amendment to submit
the question of NSA affilia
tion to student vote fct the
general spring election was
indefinitely tabled by a vote
of 18-12 at Student Council
meeting yesterday.
The amendment was p r o
posed by 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 college represent
ative, Bob Grimit, moved to
indefinitely table Nore's
amendment until April 11, af
ter he had spoken against the
amendment. His motion was
ruled out of order on a par
liamentary technicality.
When Council President
Steve Gage again recognized
Grimit to restate his motion
that it might be in order,
member Nancy Butler moved
to censure president Gage for
showing favoritism in recog
nizing Grimit. Another mem
ber (Nore) had asked for rec
ognition before Grimit after
he had first yielded the floor,"
she said.
The motion to censure
Gage was defeated by a vote i
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.1'
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-frel they
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 js
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
I be final in deciding the ques
I tion.
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.
Just one more penny
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 penny-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
post to stall in the Union
parking lot but snow on
the ground spells1 utter ca
tastrophe. 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 parking meters
now on the North S e 1 1 e c k
parking lot.
You have to think hard to
forget it, but it is done
admissions from the guilty
prove it.
Miss Nore believed that the
same percentage of students
would not be informed on the
NSA in the general election
as the percentage of Student
Council members that would
not be informed on the ques
tion April 11.
"The Student Council should
not take the easy way out in
the question of NSA affilia
tion by handing over the
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 stu
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."

ROTC Notices
On Deferment
Are Cancelled
All notices for defermentJ
from going on active duty
have been cancelled in the ad
vanced Army ROTC program.
The reason for this action
is to insure that the required
quota for officers entering ac
tive duty from the University
will be fulfilled.
Deferments in dentistry,
medicine, osteopathy, vet
erinary medicine, theology,
and law for students who
have completed one year will
be automatically granted.
Other deferments will be ac
cording to subject priority,
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.
Fines
Gather round chill'un and
you 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 you wanta complain
about, never being able to find
a slot for your Model T, try
the North Selleck lot - but
I warn you it'll cost money
however, what doesn't?
And when you c o n s i d e r
that y'can just drive right
in the little ol' lot and us
ually find one right in the
heart of the giant NU cam
pus Well that's some
thing. It also proves how many
misers there are on this
campus, but to use one last
cliche (which journalists are
forbidden to do), it takes all
kinds of people.
Don't forget you all
it's up to us united we
stand loyal always sar
castic never to shout as
one we shall never fail
to feed the hungry the
meters.
throughout the country.
