Monday, Feb. 21, 1966 The Daily Nebroskan Vol. 81, No.67 Student Files For Office Franz H. Penner, a 38 year old University student, an nounced that he filed Monday to run for the Nebraska Legis lature from the 34th District. Penner has attended the University as a pre-law stu dent for the past two semes ters, but Is not currently en rolled in order 'i facilitate his political interests and be cause of financial reasons. Penner's main reason for running for the Legislature is dissatisfaction with the pres ent tax system and the fact that "people should be getting their money's worth from the tax dollar." "We need a complete over haul of the tax base," Penner explained, "and we need to close down the loop holes in the system." He advocates an income, property, and sales tax program. "I am also concerned by the great disparity in salaries here at the University," Pen ner added. "The salaries are raised for the top brass, but what about the rank and file teachers?" "Our better teachers are leaving the University for a salary ten times as large in New York," Penner stated. Penner said that one in stance of the waste of state funds is evident in the buy ing and restoration of the Ken nard House in Lincoln. He be lieves that the city should be paying for it, since it is actu ally the city's concern. Penner describes his occu pation as farming. He has served two terms as justice of the peace in Aurora. He is currently serving on the Hamilton County Central Committee of the Democra tic Party and is executive secretary of the Nebraska Council on Family Law. He is a Nebraska repre sentative for the United States Divorce Reform and during two sessions of Legislature, Penner worked as a lobbyist on behalf of personal inter ests.

ARCHIVES 1 No Deposit, No Return Collecting 3.500 empty pop bottles, taking in laundry and selling cookies is the way four University fresh men coeds hope to pay their way to Colorado over spring vacation. The whole plan was con ceived last week on a lonely Tuesday night as Ruth Brock, Sherye Nelson, Deb bie O'Dell and Joan Wagoner decided it was imperative to earn S70 for the trek to Colorado. ' We never go out on week ends." said Miss Brock, "so we decided it was Colorado or bust." The four determined girls have collated in less than a week 1,236 empty pop bottles which they store in the for mal storage closet on sec ond floor Raymond Hall. "It's a humanitarian ef fort, "stated Miss Nelson in speaking of the bottle col lecting campaign. "Yes," Miss Brock added, "we wanted to get rid of the Officials To Review The ASUN public issues committee is awaiting Univer sity decisions on its proposals regarding foreign student housing before presenting them before the Lincoln City Council, according to Terry Schaaf. chairman of the ASUN public issues committee. The Student Senate passed a series of five proposals re garding foreign student hous ing, two of which concerned the City Council to secure min imum housing standards for rental housing. "We are waiting to find out exactly how to present our proposal before the Council," Schaaf noted. "It's going to take a little time to settle. Also we want to be able to tell them just what the Uni versity is doing about the housing problem and we have to wait until they de cide." City Council Three members of the Lin coln City Council told the Daily Nebraskan that the City Council could enact min imum housing standard codes by ordinance if they so de sired and were presently in the process of considering them. "The Council could qss an ordinance establishing a min imum standard code," said City Councilman John Sal- - mi "pr iiff " """"" " A-'VL. Cl err litter problem in the dorms. Those empty bottles just clutter up the rooms." "We began our pilgrim age," Miss Brock continued, ' bv hitting them with the old line." The plea for bot tles from residents includes, in the final scene, Miss Brock begging on hands and knees while crying real tears. "We haven't hit Selleck yet and we have three floors left in Pound," said Miss Brock. In one hour in the lobby of Abel, the girls col lected 200 bottles by corner ing the residents as they stepped off the elevator. "The boys in Abel are very generous," stated Miss Wagoner. "But the tightwads in Cather won't contribute to the cause," Miss Brock com mented. "However, we are planning to take a wheel barrow over to Cather on March 11 when they have open house. The place is a veritable gold mine!" leek. "Right now the Coun cil does have the power to destroy dangerous property." He added that be does not favor passage of a retroac tive housing ordinance if It would mean "sweeping out areas where people may be satisfied with older homes that might not meet require ments. Lloyd Hinkley said, "The Council has already spent some time investigating ex isting housing ordinances and thinking how they should be changed. The controversy centers on whether or not any changes should be retro active to include older homes. Housing Code He added that he was in favor of having a code to ap ply' to buildings completed before the ordinance would be enacted. "It's my guess that the question will be before the Council within 30 to 60 days," he continued. John Com stock said the Council "has been working on a code that would aply to both old and new build ings." He continued that, although he was not sure where the plans stand at present, in formal hearings had been held concerning minimum housing codes. A. Qj&eutK-r The girls have encountered some trouble in returning the bottles. Last week they took six hundred empties to a grocery store. They loaded seven shopping carts with bottles and were taking them into the store when the last cart, manned by Miss Brock and Miss Wagoner hit a bump. Fifty bottles tumbled over the "entrance to the store. "We cried, the manager cried and the customers laughed," said Miss Brock. "Fortunately only six bot tles were broken, in the ac cident," Miss Wagoner stated. The store manager suggest ed in the future that they bring in only 500 bottles at a time. The manager offered the girls jobs as temporary cashiers in sympathy for their cause. Other jobs taken on in the pursuit of the $70 goal include Cont. on Page 4, Col. 7 Housing "The question has been pushed aside for a time by the enactment of the build ing code," he added, "which applies to new buildings but which we felt took partial care of a minimum housing problem." Proposals Proposals made to the Uni versity asked the Foreign Student Housing Office to send foreign students re questing admission an infor mative, realistic pamphlet on the availability of nousing and housing conditions and also requested the Housing Office to reserve a preJeter mined number of rooms in the dorms for international 6tudents. The resolutions came as a result of a four-month study by the public issues com mittee. Schaaf's report pointed out that foreign student bousing Is often substandard and that foreign students receives a less - than desirable view of American life because of the poor bousing and discrimi nation they are unprepared to face. Besides Schaaf, other mem bers of the public issues com mittee are Bob Lott, Kris Bitner, Cuz Guenzel, Nan Webster, Liz Ma dole, Darryl Gless and Mary Baker.
