per person on a first come,

but there was not a great
deal of support in having the
Council do anything about the
situation, according to Barton.
"The answers were about
half and half concerning Coun

great majority indicated that
there was a problem."
"We (the Council) cannot
do anything unless and until
we know what the student
wants," he pointed out. "If
the student does not respond
to this poll, the issue, will'
probably be dropped. This is

T
University "Supplies Loans
To Over 530
Over 530 students are tat
ing part in the Student Loan
Plan offered by tne universi
ty Scholarship and Financial
M'l Office.
The money for these loans
is supplied by private contri
butions and is then loaned out
to the students at 2 per cent
interest. This money is usual
ly paid back at the beginning
of the year after the loan was
made.
In order to receive these
loans a student must have a
grade average of 4.5 or over.
Because of this requirement,
first semester freshmen are
ineligible to receive loans. Al
so taken into consideration is
the financial need of the stu
dent. T h e r e are no restrictions
placed upon the students. The
loan office will not make any
other stipulations other than
that you are an accredited
full time student at the Uni
versity. Even though there
are no restrictions on the use
of the loans, the money is
mainly hm it for tuition
and books.
The office of Scholarship
and Financial Aid also helps
students with scholarships,
summer jobs, and other
loans. They have stated that
upper class scholarships and
Housing Report Released
By
Over half of the University's
students live off-campus, ac
cording to a recent release by
the Student Housing Office.
Out of a total of 10,906 stu
dents, 5,080 live within an
eight block radius of the cam
pus where they attend class
es. This leaves 5,826 living off
campus.
Included in the term "off
campus" are: Lincoln stu
dents living at home, those
living in apartments, in rooms
or with private families, and
those who commute. It also
includes those students whose
college Is on city campus, but
who live within eight blocks
of ag campus and vice versa.
"The number living off
campus makes it difficult to
unite this campus to stand for
anything," said Mike Barton,
student Council opinion poll
to be free from dictation from
party chiefs," he told the
DAILY NEBRASKAN.
Denney said that when he
heard that Morrison would
speak to the YR's he was
curious about the reasons be-
from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Mon
day on both campuses and
on Tuesday and Wednesday on
city campus only. All students
must pick up an appointment
card to pay their fees.
"We're trying to make this
as convenient as possible for
the student," said Barton.
There was some feeling in
the Council at their last
meeting that the issue should
be dropped because of the
lack of interest.
Aliens Must Register
All persons residing in the
United States who are not
citizens must register with the
Federal Government. This in
cludes the foreign students at
the University.
This involves going to the
Post Office and filling out an
Alien Registration Card. This
registration must be complet
ed during the month of Janu
ary. Undergrads
National Defense loans appli
cations are available in the
office at any time and that
the deadline for turning them
in is March 1.
AUF Names
Lonnquist
As President
John Lonnquist, Beta Theta
Pi, is the new president of
the All University Fund
(AUF).
Speaking about AUF, Lonn
quist said, "All University
Fund has two reasons for ex
isting. The first reason is to
educate the students in one of
their future civic responsibil
ities, that of charitable giv
ing; the second, to serve
them. Without AUF the cam
pus would be continually over
run by groups in need of
money."
Other members of the exec
utive board elected last Thurs
day are Betsy Mars. v'o.

obtain an accurate polling of
student opinion because not
everyone is in the vicinity of
the polling places."
Of the ten thousand plus
students, there are over twice
as many men as women stu
dents. There are 3,394 wom

the eight block radius. There
are 7,512 men, 3,197 of which
live within the eight block
area.
A total of 516 junior and
senior single men live In

apartment dwellers.
Far fewer women live in
apartments than men. There

hind the Invitation. "I think
they should seek knowledge in
their own party and its phi
losophy rather than studying
the middle of the road," he
went on.
Denney charged that Mor
rison has a Republican speech
and a Democratic speech,
which he uses interchange
ably, depending on to whom
he is speaking.
He continued, "If the YR's
are carrying on activities
within the party, they are
wasting their time listening
to a candidate who believes
in neither party."
"I don't think the Univer
sity's Young Democrats have
asked Lt. Gov. Dwight Burney
to speak, and I don't think
that they will, he said.
Earlier Chuck Peek, presi
dent of the YR's, had said
that several people had talked
to him and the reactions to
Morrison's speech were very
favorable. Peek said that he
had heard of some criticism
within the party but that he
thought it was due to a mis
understanding of the reason
for the invitation.
Members of the YR execu
tive council have said that

. Other reactions to the Gov
ernor's speech caine from
Chancellor Clifford Hardin and
Vice Chancellor G. Robert
Ross, dean of Student affairs.
Hardin denied that the
shortage in class sections
available second semester was
crucial enough to warrant a
disaster meeting between him
self and Governor, which Mor
rison had suggsted "if the
problem is serious."
Ross implied that the short
age was more serious on the
level of students who could
not get particular classes
they wanted than on the level
of the University as a whole.
He said that, althoueh the sit
uation has received a great
deal of publicity, it is proo
ablv not much worse than at
