CU Administrators
Feel Budget Pinch
By GARY LACEY
Nebraskan Staff Writer
Colorado University offi
cials, as well as NU admin
istrators, are feeling the
budgetary squeeze.
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.
In his campaign, Colorado
Governor - elect Love prom
ised a 10 to 15 percent tax
reduction.
As the editorial points out,
the dilemma which had aris
en is "that some thing has
got to give and unfortunately
it looks as if it is going to
be the proposed budget.
Cigarette smokers are de
facing the floors of the new
West Bank Campus building,
according to an article in the
Minnesota Daily.
A custodial and ground su
pervisor complained that stu
dents were grinding their ci
garet butts on new tile, caus
ing black spots, some of
which are impossible to re
move. The worst damage, he said,
New Scrip
Out Soon
Scrip, the undergraduate lit
erary magazine, will be avail
able Monday. 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:

room and in the classrooms.
He said, "Students wouldn't
do it at home, or they would
catch heck. There is one way
to give them heck here, but
with a little cooperation these
buildings could be kept nice."
The Interfraternity Council
at the University of Missouri
is now considering a propos
al to permit fraternities to
pledge men during the sum
mer. According to Chuck Hart
mann, IFC adviser, there
were approximately 150 va
cancies in MU greek houses
last fall.
He said that the new sys
tem wou.ld fill these, va
cancies. Delta' Gamma national So
rority has been banned from
the Beloit Wisconsin College
campus, according to the
Daily lowan.
Dr. Miller Upton, president
of the college, said that the
ban will hold until the sorori
ty alters an oath of secrecy
clause to permit student
members to discuss sorority
business with college offi
cials. The Beloit chapter was sus
pended by the national sorori
ty after it pledged a Negro
girl.
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.
The professors' request said
that the Berkley group "be
lieves that any recognized
student or faculty should be
empowered to invite any
speaker to appear on campus
to inform the University on
matters of intellectural importance."

Col. Powell
Challenges
Contention
Col. Elmer R. 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

lars per couple, and the mu

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.

"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.
