Sky Shows New To Visitors; Don't Know What To Expect By LYNDA INMAN "Forty per cent of the peo ple that come to the plane tarium don't know what to expect," according to Allan Griesemer, director and nar rator of the Mueller Plane tarium Sky Shows. Griesemer explained that some people expect to see plants growing or expect that the roof will be rolled back and they will view the skies out in the open air. "What actually happens is eastern skv "in the morninff." very simple," said Griesemer. !

Summer sky shows are pre sented at 8 p.m. Wednesday; at 2:45 p.m. Monday through Friday and at 2:30 and 3:45 p.m. on Saturday and Sun day. Admission is 25 cents for students and 50 cents for adults. By Barbara Tre-belhorn "The recital hall when com pleted will be of the latest and most approved design," ac cording to the bulletin of the School of Music, published in 1895, a year after the build ing's completion. That's just how long the School of Music has been wait ing for improvements, accord ing to Professor Emanuel Wishnow, Chairman of the de partment of music. Since the 1930's when the School of Music was officially acquired by the University, it has been given priority rating in the appropriation of build ing funds several times, Wish now said. "Our hopes soared high and were dashed low," he added, until in 1964 the funds were appropriated and the plan ning for the new building be Igan. . Construction of the new ! building began June 21. as bulldozers moved in to clear the sight on the southwest cor ner of 11th and R Sts. The streets around the con- j struction site have been i blocked off and will remain ; that way, according to Noel L. Smith, University construc j tion engineer. The new struc ture, Smith said, will extend into both streets. Two cul-de-saces, courts to enable cars to make U turns, will be con structed on R St. and one on 11th. The cost of the structure, designed by architects Hazen and Robinson, will be about $1,156,000, according to Smith. Olson Construction Co. is the contractor. The new building, which will be air-conditioned and sound proofed, was begun be cause nothing could be done in the old building, to expand. Its condition and the large numbers of students made it necessary, Smith said. "For many years" Wish- Mm) 1 r , ELMER FRANK JIM BOB AIR CONDITIONED COMFORT TELEVISON Hours: Mon.-Fri. 8 a.m.-5:15 p. Sat. 8 o.m.-5:00 p.m. now commented, "people have been telling us that we should employ a full time plasterer to make the necessary re pairs." The fire marshall has ordered constant improve ments, he added. "At present, classrooms are overcrowded and practice rooms are too few," Wishnow continued. Because of the limited space, classes are much larger than we would like them to be, he added. The new building has been designed to meet these prob lems of space and overcrowd ed facilities, according to Wishnow. It will contain 30 faculty teaching studios, ten graduate studios, 50 practice rooms, and five large class rooms. Four large rehearsal rooms, two seating 150 instrumental ists; one choral room seating 300 and an ensemble room seating 50 will be on the ground floor. The conservatory, or recital hall, which will be constructed upon completion of the new building in 1966, will contain larger rehearsal rooms and a recital hall seating 850, ac cording to Wishnow.

But the program was to be unco-ordinated for some time. The Army Corps of Engineers and the Soil Conservation Service under the Department of Agriculture developed sep arate flood-control plans based on different reasoning. The Corps of Engineers was most concerned with protect ing the great number of people and the property in Lincoln. Thus the Corps plan was to construct large dams and to! do major channel work most ly in the immediate vicinity of Lincoln to prevent future floods. The Soil Conservation Serv ice plan was focused on rural areas. A system of small dams and other retaining structures plus the introduc tion of conservation measures miles upstream from Lincoln and other cities would slow down runoff and thus nrovide the best means of flood pre vention, the SCS reasoned. Both plans were released within months of each other. Members of both azencies praised their own plan and criticized the other agency's plan. The co-operation that had been hoped for never materia lized. Ten years passed. Then in 1960, under the leadership of the Salt-Wahoo Watershed Association and other civic-minded groups, a co-ordinated plan was worked out. Voters in the newly formed Salt-Wahoo Watershed District overwhelmingly ap proved a three-quarter mill levy on all real and personal property to provide funds. As the co-ordinated plan is being executed, Hal Schroe der and his associates are confident that the completed Salt-Wahoo Watershed de velopment will cut down the number of floods in the basin. For the 97 floods on Salt Creek and its tributaries be tween 1900 and 1953 sixteen of which were major disasters were too many, Schroeder believes.
