"Even though the Kosmet
Klub Spring Show IS the
story of a . . . uh . . .
woman of ill repute,"
Soring Show Chairman Dick
Weerts blushed, "it's not
really a 'bad' show."
Behind Weerts, in the Ne
braska Union Ballroom, the
cast of Irma la Douce were
revelling in sin, debauch
cry, drinking lemonade at
a real bar. and even watch
ing real go-go girls. When
asked how Kosmet Klub got
official permission to put
on a play like this in "the
city of churches" he re
plied: "We did think we might
have some trouble getting
permission from the Uni
versity to put on a play
with such an unusual sub
ject, although Irma la
Douce is actually a very
decent show," Weerts said.
"The University officials
we talked to indicated that
there would be no problem
since Irma la Douce ap
peared on Broadway and
was made into a movie," he
continued.
Weerts added that Kos
met Klub "did have a prob
lem with indecency in the
Fall Shows back during
World War II. The people
who wrote the fraternity
skits would throw all sorts
of grossness in the day be
fore the show after the fin
al rehearsal."

Housing Panel ...
Snyder: 'Parental Consent Isn't
Reason To Live Off-Campus
By Jim Einger
Junior Staff Writer
A panel of students, ad
ministrators and a repre
sentative from the Board
of Regents appeared be
fore a large crowd in the
Nebraska Union Thursday
to discuss the controversy
over the University's hous
ing policy.
Roger Doerr. first vice
president of ASUN, mod
erated the discussion. Pan
el members included Ed
Schwartzkopf of the Board
of Regents; Dean and Vice
Chancellor for Student Af
fairs G. Robert Ross; He
len Snyder, associate dean
of student affairs; Terry
Schaaf, ASUN president;
and Marv Almy, chairman
of the ad hoc committee on
housing policy.
Ad Hoc Committee
Stressing that the ad hoc
housing committee was
working as speedily as pos
sible towards reaching re
pressed optimism that
"progress will be made"
with changes hopefully go
ing into effect, next fall.
Almy said the committee
was considering the needs
of the University 10-15 years
in the future.
He added that the com
mittee was looking at hous
ing from its educational val

ferent needs for different
people. He gave the exam
ple of most freshmen need
ing University housing, and
most seniors needing to get
out on their own to make
their decision-
'Good Cause'
Present University hous
ing policy states that a
"good cause" must be sup
plied to permit an exception
that women live elsewhere
than U.'versity housing.
Miss Snyder said that no ob
jective criteria could be es
tablished to define what
"good causes" are. She
stressed that each case in
volved an individual and
was therefore unique.
Miss Snyder and Mr.
Schwartzkopf agreed that
parental consent was not
reason enough for a wom
an to live off-campus. He
said that often a parent is
not in a position to under
stand or know the reasoning
behind ill University rules
and regulations.
The ad hoc committee
plans to look into the eco
nomic aspects of housing
upon the individual and
the University. It plans to
investigate what approved
off-campus housing really is
and will consider the ele
ment of who should make
what choice about the stu
dents right to live where
they choose.

to tuition hike proposal. YD President,
Bruce Mason, oversees the signing.
"We plan to send a copy of the pe
tition to every state senator, as well as to
the Board of Regents, since they are the
group which ultimately sets the tuition
rate," Mason said.
Petition sheets will be circulated
through campus housing units, and stu
dents will be able to sign today at the
YD booth in the Student Union.
Almy expressed confi
dence that results of the
committee would be ac
cepted by the Administra
tion, the students and the
Board of Regents.
Schwartzkopf, speaking
for the entire Board of Re
gents, said that current
housing rules are flexible
and that the University has
"loosened up," citing sen
ior keys as an example.
He felt the ad hoc com
mittee on housing "is a
positive and constructive
way to implement change."
He was confident students
would come up with the
right solution when they
knew all the facts involved.
Rules' Development
Miss Snyder traced the
development of the housing
rules, saying that they
eventually came to include
an unwritten but "specific
interest in the total devel
opment of individuals in the
process of getting an in
tellectual education."
She termed this concept
"total education," defining
it briefly as experiences
social, activities, student
government, the exchange
of views and experiences
with others as a supple
mentation of classroom
learning with practical ex
periences. Sh e also ex
pressed willingness to work
for changes to meet needs.

J Inadequacies May Make
Prosecution Difficult
The inadequacies in both
the Nebraska statutes and
federal court decisions deal
ing with obscenity might
make it difficult to prose
cute William Steen, the
owner of the Heroic Book
store, an attorney of the
American Civil Liberties
Union said Wednesday.
Speaking before a small
gathering at Abel Hall, Pat
rick Healey, one of the di
rectors of the Nebraska
ACLU, said that Steen was
making a challenge to the
obscenity.
Redeeming Merit
Healey said that since
the statute makes no spe
cific mention of the phrase
"redeeming social merit"
as is required by the Su
preme Court, the state may
have to appeal to other
laws to convict Steen on
the obscenity charges he
faces.
The need of a redeeming
social merit clause first
appeared in a Supreme
Court decision on the book
Fanny Hill, which reversed
an earlier ruling of the
Massachusetts Supreme
Court, he said.
The Supreme Court ruled
in this case that a b o o k
which has an literary val
Fallen Society Depicted
In Waiting For Godof
The avant-garde play
"Waiting for Godot" opens
Friday evening, March 10
in H o w e 11 Memorial The
atre. The play is written by
Samual Beckett, a pioneer
in the modern absurdist
movement, according to Dr.
William R. Morgan who is
directing the play.
"Waiting for Godot"
attempts to tell the story of
a discordant and decayed
society. It is highly allegor
ical and symbolic, with a
setting created by elec
tronic music, sounds of jets,
and junk sculpture.
Two Tramps
The production opens
with two tramps waiting
beside the only tree on an
empty plain. They are wait
ing for a mysterious person
named Godot, even though
they don't know Godot nor
why they should wait for
him.
Besides the two tramps,
named Estragon and Vlad
imir, the cast includes Poz
zo, a pompous taskmaster,
Lucky, a laborer whom
slavery and unquestioning
acceptance have reduced to

near idiocy, and a messen
ger from Godot.
i
ue cannot be barred he ex
plained. Variable Obscenity
A Supreme Court deci
sion, that could be used
against Steen, described
variable obscenity, Healey
said.
This decision in the Ginz
burg case states that re
gardless of the book's con
tent, if the manner of ad
vertising implies sexual
overtones are prevalent in
the book, then the book
can be barred he said. In
this case, he continued, the
seller is not prosecuted, but
"the book suffers the fate
of being suppressed."
Another Supreme Court
verdict in the Roth case,
under which Steen could
be tried, gave the following
vague definition of obscen
ity: if the book's dominant
theme appeals to the pruri
ent interest of the average
person applying contempor
ary community standards,
then it's obscene, he said.
Healey criticized the rul
ing as being "vague, im
precise and simply appear
ing as a general concept"
Charges Against Steen
Healey, who has prac
ticed law in Lincoln for al
most ten years, said that
Steen is charged with sell-
The two tramps will be
played by Clint Jakeman of
Fremont and Dave Clark of
Lincoln. The tyrant and his
slave will be played by
Steve Gaines of Grand Is
land and Gary Hill of Lin
coln, and Dan Weymouth of
Lincoln, will play the mes
senger. "Waiting for Godot" will
be presented at 8 p.m.,
Friday and Saturday in
Howell Memorial Theatre.
It will also play April 14-15,

ing three specific nudist "
magazines, "which aren't
as suggestive as some of
the others I've seen," the
controversial book "Candy,"
and a book "Lesbians in
White."
While he didn't express
an opinion about Lesbians
in Whit e," he refused to
classify Candy" as obscene
terming it a "funny book
which is a satire of d a i 1 y
life."
Healey didn't know if the
state would prosecute un
der the Roth verdict, the
Ginzburg decision or anoth
er decision.
Easiest To Defend
In the trial, still pending
in court, Healey said Can
dy would be the easiest to
defend, the nudist maga
zines would also be defensi
ble, but that the other book
concerning the white slave
trade might be a little dif
ficult to defend.
"I don't feel any book in
the area of sexual commu
nication should be banned
unless there is a clear and
conduct which can be per
ceived from the book."
He said that censors feel
that 'nice' people don't re
act to sexual overtones,
while it's the person who
is likely to be led astray by
the book that causes it to
be banned.
"Psychologically, there is
a great deal of doubt if
banning the book will real
ly prevent crime, fear and
sexual responses," he said.
"There is no evidence that
the book will or will not
cause dangerous reactions ,
when read by certain per
sons." "
He said writing about hu
man sexual conditions in
deed has merit and that
"there is much to be said
about sex not being the dir
ty concept that people view'
it as."
