a "hideous, terrible demon"
which kept coming into the
young Kansan's mind.
THE NATION'S first silver

THE DEPARTMENT of
Justice held that improve

Senior Staff Writer
"This isthe University of
Nebraska speaking today's
news in brjef the speaker in
the Union said and now a
lecture on next will be half
an hour of classical and then
the latest tunes"
These sounds could be a
reality on every FM radio on
the University campus and a
large part of Lincoln if plans
of several groups succeed.
Wednesday the Student Sen
ate took the first step in es
tablishing an FM radio sta
tion, to be operated by stu
dents on the campus, when it
passed a motion supporting
the plans for such a station
and encouraging its develop
ment. In the next few days talks
between G. Robert Ross, vice
chancellor and dean of stu
dent affairs, and the Senate's
representative Gary Larsen
will further move the plans
for this station toward actu
ality. Campus Speakers
Larsen explained that a sta
tion of this type could broad
cast the speeches of campus
features run in the Daily Ne
braskan. It could also tell of
the activities, opinions and
goals of the University stu
dents directly to the Lincoln
community,
"The entertainment possibil
ities of this station arc limit
ed only by those who would
operate and sustain it t h e
students of the University,"
Larsen said.
He pointed out that the only
real problem with establish
ing this station will be to get
the money for the estimated
$4,200 to $9,000 initial cost of
the FM station and equip
ment. "Once we pay the initial cost
the expense for this station
will be really very little
only between $300 and $500
a year," Larsen stressed. "If
the University won't help us
financially to establish the
station, then we will get the
money another way, possibly
from the Nebraska Founda
tion or some other group that
helps with things "that real
ly benefit the school."
Another group strongly in
support of the station and
who claims the original idea
for the establishment of a
University FM station, is Stu
dent Action for Government
Effectiveness (SAGE).
Randy Prier, a member of
SAGE, said, "If we can't get
initial administration financi
al support then we will turn
to the students and find other
ways to get the money."
More Research
Both Larsen and Prier
stressed that right now they
were actually only trying to
line up support for the sta
tion and they realize that
more research and study
would be required before
completion of the project.
Larsen explained that the
present Journalism School
radio station KNUS could
not handle these purposes
proposed forthe FM station
because its carrier current
"cannot even be picked up
by many places on campus."
He stressed that they had
talked to the broadcast se
quence administrators of the
Journalism School and that
no one is in any way opposed
to the establishment of an
FM station.
"Larry Keating, KNUS sta
tion manager, stressed the
point that he would be will
ing to help set up and also
lend assistance afterwards,"
Larsen explained.
Licensing Easy
Prier pointed out that it
would be relatively easy for
the school to obtain a license
for an FM educational 10-watt
station because the FM bands
are mostly wide-open. For an
educational station, the Fed
eral Communications Com
mission is very helpful and
there is no application fee, he
said.
He noted that much of the
SDS To Sponsor Vigil
In Memory Of Quaker
Students for a Democratic
Society (SDS) will have a si
lent vigil at the United Cam
pus Christian Fellowship to
day in memory of Norman
Morrison, the Boston Quaker
who burned himself to death
in protest of U.S. involvement
in the war in Viet Nam.
Carl Davidson, president of
the local SDS chapter, said
the meditation period in honor
of Morrison's "self immola
tion" would be held from 4:30
to 5:30 p.m.
"If a person was as moved
by Morrison's act as I was, he
might just want to sit for an
hour and mediatate about
what Morrison was doing,"
Davidson said.
totiom
present equipment used by
KNUS at the Journalism
School might be used and the
station would probably be lo
cated there. Prier said that
the top of Abel Hall had been
considered seriously as a
place for the FM tower and
that the station would prob
ably carry between two and
three miles.
Colleges which already have
campus FM stations include
Colorado State, the University
of Michigan, the University
of Oklahoma, the State Uni
versity of Iowa, the Univer
sity of Kansas and Oklahoma
State.
Wayne State College was
recently given a $7,000 gift by
the Wayne State Foundation
for the purchase of equip
ment for a 10-watt FM radio
station to operate from the
Fine Arts Center. Range of
this station will be 10 to 15
miles.

'Be Counted' Sorenson
Says At YR Meeting
Omaha Mayor A. V. Soren
sen urged University Young
Republicans (YR) to "stand
up and be counted."
Speaking at the YR meet
ing, Sorensen said the s t u -dents
"must be involved. It
doesn't mean you are going
to agree with every program
of the mayor or the gover
nor." "
"If we fail in cities, we fail
at the state level and soon on
the national level," Sorensen
said, emphasizing that city
government is the "grassroots
of America."
Sorensen told the Young
Republicans of some of the
problems of city government.
"During my campaign, I
said if I believe in anything,
I believe in equal opportunity
for every citizen," Sorensen
recalled. "I am proud the
people of Omaha agreed.
"Omaha has about 30,000
Negroes, 9 per cent of the
population, and they by far
represent the lowest income
families. They desperately
need to become first class
citizens."
"I am convinced that Oma
ha will be one of the most
enlightened cities in America
in the area of race relations,"
Sorensen said.
Sorensen cited the Cudahy
Packing Plant strike as one
of his problems soon after he
came into office in 1965.
"I took it upon myself to
get labor and management to
gether," he said.
Commenting on his vow to
not return to city government
after serving on the City
Council, Sorensen said he filed
for mayor "because our town
was in trouble."
In relation to the tax prob
lem, Sorensen said the answer
was in the development of in
dustry and water power to in
crease the amount of taxable
base.

Dec. 15," he said, "with the
rest of the cattle being moved
gradually after the experi
ments are phased out."
"The reason for the change
is that the center of East cam
pus is moving farther east,
and the pressure of the people
has caused the decision to
move the animals," he said.
'People Pressure'

he called it includes the people

UNICORNS Membership Rises
With New Recruiting Program
By Julie Morris
Junior Staff Writer
Having' tripled its member
ship within the last three
years, the UNICORNS organi
zation expects membership
totals to "double before the
end of the semester," accord
ing to Rich Thompson, treas
urer. Organized in the spring of
1962, UNICORNS membership
jumped from six to "20 or 25
the following semester," ac
cording to Marbo Rush, vice
president. At present there
are 75 cembers in the group
and a campaign to recruit new
members is under way.
"We've handled our mem
bership drive differently this
year than we have in t h e
past," Thompson said. He
explained that the organiza
tion is carrying its member
ship drive on throughout the
semester in order to inform
more off-campus independents
about the group and the op
portunities it presents.

pus, married student housing
near the diary barns, and the
o'eneral expansion of the Uni
versity. "The food processing center
will remain as is, and t h e
dairy store will stay open,"
he said, despite the moving of
the dairy herd. "The milk will
be transported in from Mead
to the Dairy Industry Building
as needed."
'Out Of Mind'
The removal of the diary
herd to Mead is part of an
overall philosophy of moving
all the animals that are not
enclosed. So the swine, sheep,
and beef cattle which are now
out in the open will someday
be moved. He said the idea
was taken from the old idea:
"Out of sight out of mind."
The poultry, for instance, will
remain on East campus be
cause they are in enclosed
housing.
He said that all these ani
mals would not be moved out
immediately but rather as the
demand for the land in
creased. New Dental College
The removal of the dairy
herd is part of the prepara
tion for many changes on
East Campus, according to
Dr. Franklin E. Eldridge, Di
rector of Resident Instruction.
He said that the new Dental
College will be built just to
the south of the present dairy
barns.
"The architect is drawing
plans for the Animal Science
building to be located on the
rodeo grounds." "The legis
lature has appropriated funds,
and this plan is a reality," he
said.
Other Improvements
The legislature has also
approved funds for other im
provements on East Campus.
"Agriculture Hall is the next
building to be renovated; all
the offices will be rebuilt to
utilize the old Ag L i b r a r y

As a part of their member
ship drive. UNICORNS is
sponsoring a "Push Dance" on
Nov. 12 at 8 p.m. in the Ne
braska Union Pan American.
Room. Thompson said special
invitations were being sent to
off-campus students notifying
them of the dance.
The dance is open to any
one who would like to attend,
meet UNICORN members and
find out about the organiza
tion, according to Dick Ander
sen, chairman of the UNI
CORN freshman board, which
is sponsoring the dance.
This year, for the first
time, UNICORNS has been
empowered by the student
government to act as the offi
cial organ for off-campus in
dependents. Off-campus inde
pendents mav work through
UNICORNS if they need a

space. New classrooms will
be built downstairs and on the
second floor," he said.
A cooling tower is also be
ing built and pipes were laid
last summer to bring central
air conditioning to the build
ings on campus.
The enrollment increase for
the whole University was 17
per cent, but in the College
of Agriculture and Home Eco
nomics the increase was 28
per cent, "so we're finding
ourselves acutely aware of
classroom, dorm, and Union
needs," Dr. Eldridge said.
Another change is the new
lighting being installed on
East campus. Trenches and
mounds of dirt that look like
gopher tunnels connect on
future street light to another.
They are but the signs of
what is to come on East Cam
pus. Sigma's Kick Off
New Open Rush
Sigma Kappa sorority has
begun a concentrated pro
gram for open rush. The
three-week program, which
will feature something every
other day, includes everything
from teas, dinners, and style
shows to a panel discussion
with boys on dating.
Liz Ryan, president of Sig
ma Kappa, explained that this
is an entire house project in
volving both pledges and ac
tives. Panhellenic helped kick off
the program Wednesday nignt
with an open rush dessert.
This first evening of activity
was described by Miss Ryan
as "Highly successful."
Patti Teel, president of Kap
pa Delta, said at Monday
night's Panhellenic meeting
that this experiment in open
rush is definitely "for the
benefit of the wlw Greek
system."

had no way of participating in
such activities.
