SJeep Isn't) Herb Alpert'S 1 JI5 Us Night-Owls Struggle To Classl To Appear Nov. 16 First fighting isn't the cause of University stu dent's black eyes this week, but it could be the lack of sleep caused by the deluge of exams and papers, or runny mascara as coeds cry over a returned exam. As the seventh week of classes draws to a close, students find themselves swamped by tests, quizzes, papers, projects, lab as signments, and speeches which are due. Sleep . . . isn't. One coed yawned, "I fall asleep every night in the living room where I study. My roommate wakes me up at 6 a.m. so I won't miss breakfast." A senior said that he wasn't getting much sleep, but then he wasn't studying either. "I'm learning a lot, but not studying much," he said. "My roommate sleeps three hours a night," groaned another student, "she's a wreck, and so is our room. It's been miser able. We throw pillows at each other to stay awake." Instructors have been transformed from "friends" to "terrors." One student complained, "I studied all week end for a mid-term. When I arrived at class to take it, the instructor an nounced that he was post poning the exam!" Other students are at tempting the "Would you like to have coffee with me?" method. This closely SLEEP FORSAKEN ... by Sam Delp, as papers and exams pile up. resembles the red apple ap proach. Another aid to the failing student is to accept a date with the lab instruc tor, (even if he does look like a toad). Many fans who attended the CU game are still re covering from the weekend. These people have de creased the amount of time spent in class and in study ing. They all exclaim, "CU was wild, but now I'm real ly flunking out." Alarm clocks that have failed to ring (supposedly) have also been a hindrance to the conscientious (sup posedly) student. The student who hasn't had time to attend nis classes has also found him self in a touchy situation. It's quite depressing, when you are trying to borrow notes, to find out that no one else was in class either. One student who was sel dom in class, studied all night for an hour exam. Showing up at the assigned time and place, he discov ered the exam had been moved up two weeks "I built up by courage and went to my first hour ex am." said one freshman. "I failed the test, however, be cause my instructor said he couldn't read my hand writing." Coffee and No-Doz are consumed in greater quan tities as students struggle against the scholastic pres sure. The ever pressing thought remains in every one's mind downs come out next week! juana Brass will appear in concert at the Pershing Municipal Auditorium Nov. 16. Tickets are being sold in the Nebraska Union Pro gram office for $2.50, $3 and J3.50. Block ticket sales began Tuesday and general tickets go on sale Friday. Hit recordings of the group include "Taste of Honey," "Whipped Cream," "The Lonely Bull" and "South of t h e Border'. The Brass has appeared on the television shows of Al Hirt, Danny Kaye, Dean Martin, Ed Sullivan, Andy Williams, Red Skelton, Schreiber To Keep Position 1886 Letterpress 'Relaxes' Professor How does a professor of botany relax after a full day at the herbarium? If he's the University of Nebraska's Dr. John F. Davidson, he retreats to the basement and cranks out printed matter on what may be Nebraska's oldest letterpress. Patented in 1886. the press is hand-fed and foot operated. And yet Dr. Dav idson, pumping away with legs strengthened as a soc cer and football player in Canada, has managed to turn out four-color work. Designing what he prints is the stimulating part of printing, Dr. David son says. The routine of manual production of the press bores him. So his chil dren pitch in. "I do my own quote art work unquote," he said. And sometimes he even mixes the ink. "I get beautifuDy crossed up on colors sometimes," he says. The associate professor of botany bought the press about 10 years ago from the estate of the late T. S. Fitzpatrick, former Uni versity faculty member. He bought it to print labels for plants collected in the field, but the antique's potential for creative printing soon shewed itself. Now, the press is used for everything from high school election campaign cards to stationery, citizens band ra dio cards and a daughter's poetry. And labels, too. "I let graduate students come over and use the press for their work," Dr. Davidson said. This saves hours of their time and helps them turn out labels that are neater and more professional than handwrit ten ones, he said. He has spacing material, ink, paper, metal forms, de sign material and 32 cases of type in his makeshift basement print shop. The press, a true antique is technologically primitive and simple. But the prod ucts Dr. Davidson gets out of it are modern and professional. r. ' ) - I . ml a i 1 iM I CM m -M. Cont. From Pg. 1, Col. 7 decimal part of the numbers reflected the college's need for an additional seat. In the division, the deci mal figures for Arts and Sci ence and Graduate College were reversed and Arts and Sciences got the extra seat. Schaaf said that since the difference involved only a .0773 discrepancy from di rect reapportionment, that he would not remove Schrei ber from his seat unless the Senate directed him to. "I won't remove him for so small a mistake. I think it is , important that we do not re move senators this late in the year," he stressed. Later in the meeting. Sen. David Senseney presented a motion saying "that any suit filed in any court challeng ing the reapportionment for student Senate seats must be filed before the close of t h e semester when such reap portionment has taken place." Senseney explained that this motion, if passed, would insure that Schreiber would retain his seat throughout the year. The motion was tabled, with Sen. Jerry Ol son explaining that there were not enough senators left at the meeting to decide on such a motion. The Senate selected two senators to accompany Schaaf to the National S t u dent Government Convention at Oklahoma University. They were Ron Pfeifer and Dick Schulze. Mike Jess, a former sena tor from Engineering who re signed his seat as a result of the recent court decision concerning reapportionment, was elected by the Senate to fill the seat vacated by Don Vbss who was foreced to re sign due to a class conflict with the Senate meeting time. Hollywood Palace and To night Shows. They have played at the White House, Carnegie Hall and have made tours to England, Mexico, Canada, Australia and the Orient. Herb Alpert, creator and leader of the Tijuana Brass, is a native of Los Angeles of Russian de scent. The enterprises of the Brass began in Alpert's garage in 1962. He and his partner, Jerry Moss, were experimenting with a tune, "Twinkle Star", written by Sol L a k e. They re-arranged it to a Mariachi tempo using trumpet, pi ano, bass drums, mandolin and three voices. They decided to incorpo rate the sounds of the Ti juana bullfight arena and "Twinkle Star" became "The Lonely Bull." The group of musicians was picked in May 1965 when popular demand fcr personal appearances by the Brass grew. Previous ly, studio musicians were used to cut the Tijuana Brass' recordings, with Al pert as soloist. (hb Mabkxm r- - Lv 4Ha NEW RECREATION AREAS In add ition to malls and sidewalks, are sought by AS UN. Student Committee To Investigate University's Intramural Facilities r 7c . V'CO kiiJ. p Je! , I ..... - - & An investigation is being made into the men's intra mural facilities on the Uni versity campus by Chuck Jur icek as a part of a project of the ASUN Student Welfare committee. "The facilities are really bad now," Juricek stated. "Since they started to build the new women's P.E. Build ing, the intramural program has lost four football fields." As a result of this shortage, the Intramural Department has been forced to utilize the mall between the Coliseum and Bessey Hall for football, according to Juricek. "This mall is dangerous to play on because it is narrow, bordered by trees, and also includes metal drainage un its on them," he explained. "Even with the addition of these fields, there are only five fields, as compared to last year's seven." Juricek quoted some fig ures that he had received from Joel Meier, intramural director. Last year there were 82 football teams with 2,048 team members participating in intramural football. This year the number of teams has risen to 92, with a correspond ing rise in participants to 2,361. Vtith the completion of the dormitory complex next fall, Meier expects the number of teams to increase by 30, and with no more than the five present fields to use. If this happens, Juricek said that the intramural football program will have to be changed to a double elimina tion tournament, with the pos sibility of some teams only playing two games as op posed to the present league system which provides for each team to play at least 4 to 5 games. "The basketball program faces the same dilemma," Juricek said. "There is one court on East Campus, two at the Men's P.E. building and sometimes the program can use the three in the col iseum." "However, because of wom en's intramurals, the courts at the Men's P.E. building are only open for intramural games on Monday. Wednes day and Friday," he continued. This shortage of facilities will necessitate the schedul ing of games from 5:00 p.m to 10:30 p.m. each nieht." Another problem area is the tennis court shortage, accord ing to Juricek. There are presently only six courts on the University campus and these are used during the day for classes and until 6:30 p.m, by the varsity tennis team. "Therefore the only time there is to play on them is after 6:30 and this is definite ly far from meeting adequate ly the demand for them," he stressed. Juricek stated that he hopes to follow up on his findings by going to the administra tion and see if there are any future plans towards alleviat ing the problem. DR.

A six-foot-long tiger will greet convention-bound Ne braska teachers entering Lincoln's Pershing Munici pal Auditorium Thursday and Friday. The beast, a stuffed speci men from the University Museum, will be used to draw attention to a new pro gram for teachers and stu dents, according to Allen Griesemer, curator of edu cational sen ices for the Mu seum. Called the "specific topic approach," the program in volves lectures and demon strations on specific sub jects by museum staff mem bers, Griesemer said. "We will take visiting groups to a classroom situa tion and explain the subject with three-dimensiorial ma terials, then spend some time in the exhibit area," he continued. Absent-Minded? ... Professor Myth Tested History students at the University who have questioned the myth of the absent-minded professor laughed from the other side of their mouths Monday. Students sat in their morning class expecting to hear a lecture on mideval European History when in walked an American History prof who proceded to mount the podium and lecture on Jefferson's administration. No one said a word and the class just sat there listening until in walked the Europeon History professor who said, ' Pardon me, but you're on my podium." "I wondered why no one was taking notes," said the American History professor and left Burnett for the Social Science Building.
