According to an editorial in the Colorado Daily, CU has asked a $12.5 million dollar increase from the Colorado State general fund. In addi tion the state-supported col leges in Colorado have asked the state to provide $125 mil lion in funds for construction projects.

Scrip is pub lished by undergraduates at the University in co-operation with the Department of -English. This year, Scrip, in addition to publishing work by under graduates, has accepted po etry by Patrick Drake and prose by Lee Parks, both graduate students. It will also publish an article by a Uni versity faculty member in this issue. Scrip edor Joel Lundak said, "We did not try to select material in accordance with any pre-deterniined tone or at titude. We have tried only to take the best of the material we received, regardless of its subject matter." "Scrip will continue to print as wide a variety of material as we receive," said Lundak. "We hope that each issue will invite more and better con tributions from the student body. We feel that the cam pus can and will make a pub lication of this type a success." Student Architects Analyze, Plan Beatrice Slate Home Structures Twenty-s even University seniors are one of the first groups of their kind to make a thorough research into mental health before planning special structures for the use of the mentally ill. The architecture students, under the direction of Prof. Patrick Horsbrugh, are meet ing with more than 50 state, city and religious leaders to have their work judged at the Nebraska Education As sociation Building. The students were given the assignment five months ago to plan the redevelopment of the Beatrice State Home as though they were asked as professionals. Their five-day public jury sessions will end Wednesday. What makes their study unique, Professor Horsbrugh said, is that this may be the first time a large group of architectural scholars have concentrated months of study to determine ways in which buildings can be planned and constructed to provide the best environment for the mentally ill and retarded. The senior students whose work is being judged by pub lic juries are: Featuring the REPERTORY PLAYERS 7:30 p.m. On Other Campuses was occuring in the lunch room and in the classrooms.

The Berkley Chapter of the American Association of Uni versity Professors is slated to ask the regents of the Uni versity of California to rescind the communist speak er ban, according to t h e Daily Californian. The regent's right to bar communist speakers from the campus has - recently been challenged in court action. The right was upheld hi the original decision, but an ap peal has been filed.

Powell, pro fessor of military science,1 yesterday challenged the con tention the Reserve Officers Training Corps (ROTC) pro gram in colleges and Univer sities does not provide enough qualified o f f ic e r s for the armed services. The contention was recently given as a reason for the De fense Department's proposal to cut back the program in high schools and colleges. "The records prove that the ROTC program is the back bone of the Army Officer pro gram and the principle source of our leadership," Colonel Powell said. He said of the 16 thousand second lieutenants commis sioned by the Army in 1962, 11,000 were products of the Army ROTC program. "Only 600 of this total came from West Point and two thousand from Officers candidate school," Col. Powell said. "To the contrary, the pro gram is aimed at getting the armed services more offi cers," he said. The proposal would elimin ate the two year basic pro gram in an effort to expand the advanced cadet program for interested students. Col. Powell, 52, is an Army ROTC product of the Univer sity of Missouri. He estab lished the advanced Army ROTC program at Missouri following World War II and came to Nebraska in 1961. Innocents Award Named For Cass Innocents Society has named the trophy for the best fraternity-sorority home coming display in honor of Steve Cass. The trophv which will be called the Steve Cass Award will be given each year to the fraternity and sorority who work together to produce the best homecoming display. According to Larry Ham mer of the Innocents Society, the idea of naming the award after Cass, who was killed in an automobile accident dur ing Thanksgiving vacation, came up shortly after the ac cident. Cass initiated the idea of fraternities and soror ities working together on Homecoming displays this year. He was display chair man for Innocents Society. Old Illicit VNEB, Now KNUS, Asks For Expansion By JIM LOHSE and CHARLES TUMA Special to Daily Nebraskan In hopes of stopping a downward trend, the Nebras ka campus radio station, KNUS, has submitted a re quest for expansion to t h e Dean of Student Affairs Rob ert Ross. KNUS has now reached the post war low of two ten watt transmitters located in Seb leek Quadrangle which can only cover the dormitory in ideal weather conditions. , Since the Federal Commu nications Commission (FCC) limits each transmitter to a range of 150 feet, it will re quire about 40 half watt trans mitters to cover the campus and surrounding areas. Rent per month for each transmitter is $2.00 and $20.00 per mile for telephone wire running from the Temple Building to each transmitter. Decline and Fall The decline and fall of the popular KNUS empire began in the late 40's when an amus ing, though at the time em barrassing, incident occured. Tod Storz, now manager of KMEO in Omaha, and several other students designed a low voltage transmitter for broad casting only to surrounding fraternity and sorority houses on campus. They located the transmit ter in the Beta Theta Pi fra ternity house, 1515 R Street, and called the station Junior IFC Ball Slated Toniglit The Junior Interfraternity Council (Jr. IFC) Ball is scheduled for this evening be ginning at 8 p.m. at the East Hills Ballroom, according to Jim Baer, social chairman. The annual affair is held for fraternity and sorority pledge classes and features the crowning of the Jr. IFC Queen. Candidates for the honor are Mary Lee Jepson, Alpha Delta Pi; Jan Whitney, Kap pa Delta; Barbara Gallup, Kappa Alpha Theta; Marilyn Masters, Kappa Alpha Theta, and Chris Perrin, Kappa Al pha Theta. The cost will be two dol lars per couple, and the mu sic will be furnished by Bob by Layne and his Orchestra. Regents Meeting The University Board of Regents will meet Monday at 9:30 a.m. The Board will consider changing the name of the Department of Vocational Education at the College of Agriculture to the Depart ment of Agricultural Education. Appointment Cards Due Next Week Says Hoover All students must pick up their registration appointment cards next week, Jan. 14-18, according to Dr. Floyd Hoov er, Registrar. Student Council members and associates will be dis tributing the cards in the main lounge of the City Stu dent Union Jan. 14-18, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and in Ag Union on Jan. 14, 8 to 5. There will be distribution at both loca tions over the noon hour. "In order to register and pay fees, every student must have an appointment card. No one will be permitted t register without one," said Dr. Hoover. Registration and payment of fees will be in the Men's Physical Education Building, Jan. 28-30. Students should remember to get a card for a time when they do not have a final exam scheduled. Cover Charge Brinks "UNEB," a designation which they lived to regret. UNEB was permitted to op erate from the University studios ten hours each week, , and the University utilized UNEB's transmitter on the same basis. Power Increased No one knows, or at least admits, how it was that the power became alarmingly in creased, but perhaps the most valid theory is that a UNEB engineer permitted the anten na wire to dangle from a win dow. Agents ol the FCC picked up UNEa's signal as far south as Oklahoma and im mediately closed in on the il licit station. UNEB was oper ating without a license, ex ceeding power for a station of its type, interfering with legally-operated stations, and using illegal call leters. Only Soviet Russia Is allowed to use the initial letter "U." The innocent looking stu dents were released by the government without prosecu tion. UNEB was never heard again.
