"T h e University needs
more money than it's go
ing to get, and I'm too old
to waste my energy helping
people who aren't willing to
help themselves," said Sen.
Terry Carpenter in an in
terview yesterday.
"I'm in sympathy with
the University, but I'm not
going to beat my head
against a wall for nothing,"
he continued. Sen. Carpent
er said that the University
needs cooperation from the
alumni and unless the
alumni do some footwork
to create public sentiment,
the University is going to
get what it deserves.
Emphasizing that this
was his opinion alone, Sen.
Carpenter said that the
alumni are the secret of
success to the future of the
University.
He pointed out that the

There is only one thing

The meaning of free time
has at last become a reality
for Dr. Robert Sullivan of the
College of Dentistry, who has
recently completed a re
search in the cause of the
yellowing of teeth in children
with cystic fibrosis.
That is if you can call a
week spent as a grad student
dentist at the Orthopedic Hos
pital and at the County Hos
pital in Omaha a week mat is
free.
At least there are bo more
weekend trip to Omaha to
study patients, no more late
hours in the laboratory peer
ing at small slices of teeth.
Sullivan had been spending 20
hours a week on research.
The disease with which Dr.
Sullivan worked, cystic fibro
sis, is a recessive hereditary
disease present in children
and adolescents, the symp
toms of which are chronic
pulmonary diseases, pancrea
tic deficiency, cirrhosis of the
liver and abnormally high
sweat electrolytes.
Yellow and brown rings us
ually develop on the teeth of
victims of this disease. It was
Dr. Sullivan's job to find the
cause of this disease.

the disease.
Dr. Sullivan began his re
search by studying the possi
bility of bacterial action caus
ing the yellow color. Exces
sive saliva is secreted by the
individual with the disease.
The possibility of the salts so
dium and chlorine causing the
color was studied for quite a
while but no conclusion could
be drawn from the study.
So Dr. Sullivan turned to
the drug given to all of the
patients. He found that tet-
racyline crystals were pres
ent in the cells of the tooth.
"This drag, along with trace
elements present in the tooth,
was causing the coloring,"
said Dr. Sullivan. "Different
shades on different teeth
were caused by tbe difference
in tbe trace elements pres
ent" Some teeth have no yellow
coloring at all, said Sullivan,
and some of them varied ac
cording to the area of the
tooth. Therefore we had to
study each tooth and each of
three areas on the tooth,
making 60 areas in a mouth.
Sullivan conducted his
study in cooperation with the!
Sen. Carpenter said "the
selfish division among the
staffers of the institution
over the question of a per-
manent versus a part-time
staff was reconciled at the
time."
However, the legislator
added that "the friction
there now, is likely to cause
the defeat of the bill. It's
ridiculous."
He noted that after the
revenue committee ap
proved this request, the
Lincoln papers said that un
less it did the same thing
for the Lincoln campus, the
legislature should drop both
bills. This is very selfish,
he added.
Sen. Carpenter said that
it takes a constant, repeti
tious saturation of publicity
to convince the public and
legislators of the value of a
bill
"The Board of Regents
agree, but don't do any

One phase of the Student
Council's Senators' Program
began Wednesday night when
Sen. Albert Kjar, Lexington,
visited Beta Theta Pi frater
nity. "This is the first time to
our knowledge a Senator has
been invited to a University
bousing unit," said Tom Ko
touc, chairman of the Sena
tors' Program committee.
In the next few weeks many
of the state representatives
win visit University bousing
units and each one will be in
vited back, be said.
The target date for hosting
each senator on campus is
the middle of March, be said.
Cliff Hardin Jr. is chairman
of this part of the program
which was designed by the
Student Council to allow Uni
versity students to invite who
they wanted when they could,
Kotouc explained.
The second phase of the
program, "Statebouse Lunch
eons,' which is directed by
Dong Thorn, wfll be launched
next Thursday.
The luncheons will include
state officials other than senators.

give them a better perspec

also gives the students a
chance to bear the senators
and to study current state
problems from a senator's
viewpoint, be said.
Sen. Kjar said in an after
dinner talk that the Universi
ty budget is a question that
the legislature will have to
deal with realistically.
He said that the difficulty
in budgeting Nebraska's high
er education system lies in
the fact that not one, but all
schools are asking for in
creases. The state tax dollar could
not be stretched far enough
if an the recommendations
were granted, be said.
Commenting on the lors of
professors at the University,
he said that as of now Ne

islator. "But I became de
pressed because there was
not e n o u g h land for stu
dents to walk on from
where they were coming to

added.
The senator suggested
getting all of the University
students in one building and
inviting the senators over to
see the problem they have.
In regards to the Univer

that you're talking about

the way a senator has to look

our normal student view,"
said Mike Jeffrey.
"He didn't really go out on

that the University just
couldn't expect much more

Kjar explained that tie
problem the Nebraska Legis
lature bas is that with the
current salaries it does not
attract men who are in their
prime of life.
He said that the $200 a
month salary will not draw
completely qualified people.
As it now stands the senate
draws younger men who are
seeking experience and older
men who would retire if they
did not have a desire for pub
lic service.
