LB736, NU-OU Merger
Survives 2 Kill Attempts
By Julie Morris
Senior Writer
LB736, the University of
Nebrask a-Omaha Uni
versity merger bill Thurs
day survived a second kill
attempt by one vote.
Lawmakers voted
24-24 on a motion from Sen.
William Wylie of Elgin to
turn the bill to the floor
for the purpose of striking
the enacting clause.
The bill will come up for
a final vote next Tuesday
or Wednesday, but specula'
tion Thursday was that it
will not gain the needed 25
votes for passage or close
to the 33 needed for amend
ment with the emergency
clause.
A kill attempt last week
proposed by Sen. Henry
Pedersen, Jr. lost 21-25 as
senators approved the bill
on a general file vote 25-19.

Defeated
Election
Two unsuccessful candi
dates for the ASUN presi
dency expressed their atti
tudes Thursday about the
election results and the
campaigning.
Ron Pfeifer, runner-up
to President-elect Dick
Schulze, said that now that
the election was over, it
was up to all students to
resolve their differences
and work together to sup
port their student govern
ment. Unified Campus
"I volunteer myself to
the end of a unified cam
pus that believes in and
trusts its elected represen
tatives," Pfeifer said.
He thought the "cam
paign was unusually hard
fought" and that the "can
didates honestly had dif
ferences" in their plat
forms. He noted that student in
terest was much higher
this year than in the past.
This was because the stu
dents vo voted cared
what happened to student
government, he said.
ASUN Student Senate
Becomes Incorporated
The ASUN student sen
ate is incorporated as of
Friday according to Dave
Senseney", chairman of
ASUN'i incorporation com
mittee. As an incorporated body,
the senate is now a "Legal
entity."
The Articles of Incorpora
tion, suggested for several
years by student govern
ment administrations, were
drawn up by Lincoln law
yer Hal Hasselbach. The
project cost about $250.
Many sections of the
ASUN constitution were
copied and inserted into the
Articles of Incorporation,
according to Senseney.
Legally Binding
"This means that the
Constitution will be legally
binding because it is in
corporated by reference
Into the Articles," he ex
.Lalned. "Now if an executive of
ficer violates the ASUN
constitution, he may be tak
en to District Court. This
apples to all officers who
derive their position from
the Constitution."
Activities Restated
Senseney said that
the university administra
tion cannot say that the ar
ticles are invalid, but it
can restrict the activities
which the senate under
takes under the articles.
. "Incorporation d o e s n't
mean senate Is now all
powerful," he explained.
"ASUN will have to work
with the administration In
Implementing some of the
programs undertaken as a
legal entity."
Legal Entity"
As a "legal entity," sen
ate can go to court or be
sued by anyone, including
tudents, faculty members
or another corporation.
The senate is liable for
aU asttU in the treasury.
'For example," Senseney
aid, "if someone sues Sen
ate for $500 and only $300
are In the treasury, the
emote will pay only the
total $300 if they arc sued
and lose the case."
day was the third legisla
tive tactic employed to hold
the bill back.
On Select File
Pedersen Monday suc
ceded in having the bill
"bracketed" on select file
to hold it for action that
might have come a month
or two in the future when
the lawmakers deal with
LB861, a bill creating a
state coordinating commis
sion on higher education
for the state.
Senators approved that
motion, but reversed their
stand on Tuesday, moving
the bill off, select file on a
unaminous consent voice
vote.
Lawmakers and educa
tors have made private ob
servations that 736 would
not pass on final reading
unless Omaha lawmakers
were to vote for LB377, the
state sales-income tax
Review
Results
Pfeifer said there had
been "unneeded extremism
beyond the control of
the candidates them
selves" throughout the elec
tion. He concluded his re
marks by thanking all who
had helped him throughout
the election and said he
had no definite future plans
regarding campus politics.
In a brief statement.
Rich Thompson placed
most of the blame for his
loss on himself 4hrough
mismanagement of his
campaign and personal
blunders.
News, Editorials
He said one outside fac
tor that contributed to his
defeat was the presenta
tion of news and the edi
torial policy of the Daily
Nebraskan.
Thompson said he was
glad to see the tough race
because of the interest it
created among the voters.
. The third candidate, Wes
Cooper of the -SDS ticket,
could not be reached for
comment
Under
the
articles, the
senate
can now
handle its
own money, open its own
bank account, borrow or
loan money and buy and
hold property in the Sen
ate's name.

For the first time in the ' I
history of the Cornhusker,
a second printing will be
made this May to accomo
date an expected group of
late orders.
Allan Brandt,, yearbook
business manager, said that
letters had been mailed to
parents of all University
students offering them a
chance to buy the Corn
husker at this late date for
distribution in summer.
He urged all students who
did not buy one last fall to
take advantage of the offer
that they may have a record

measure enacted yes
terday. Only three Omaha
senators voted in the af
firmative on that bill.
LB490
Senators have also com
mented privately that the
approval of LB490, grant
ing state aid to junior col
leges and to OU for it's
freshmen and sophomore
classes, would block pass
age of 736. LB490 won 37-10
final approval Thursday.
The junior college aid bill
is a first for the state.
Previous attempts to grant
the state funds to the
schools have failed.
Under the bill, OU will
receive $608,611 for the
year on the basis of its
present freshmen and
sophomore student enroll
ment. The bill grants the
schools state aid at the rate
of $7.50 per semester credit
hour of courses being tak
en by Nebraska resident
students.
Funds granted OU under
440 should help take care of
some of the financial woes
that promoted the school's
Regents to study the possi
bility of converting from a
municipal institution to a
state one by merging with
the University.
LB736 provides that OU
would become the Univers
ity of Nebraska at Omaha
July 1, 1968 if Omahan's ap
proved the transfer in a
city election.
4,000 Plus
Freshmen
Expected
About 3,500 freshmen
have been accepted for en
rollment at the University
next fall, according to John
E. Aronson, director of ad
missions. "This represents about
60 per cent of our expected
freshmen enrollment,"
Aronson said. "We are ex
pecting a total freshmen
enrollment of about 4,200
4,400 students."
This.enrollment compares
with 4,196 original enrolled
in the Class of 1970.
"We won't have a high
increase in freshmen appli
cations next fall because
the number of high school
seniors in Nebraska is about
the same," Aronson ex
plained. To date, the greatest
number of freshmen, 1361,
have registered for the Arts
and Science College. Others
with high freshmen enroll
ment include Teachers Col
lege, 568 applicants, and
engineering, 516 applicants.

Foundation Week Termed
' 'A Tremendous Success'
"Foundation Week is a
tremendous success," ac
cording to Harry R. Haynie,
Foundation president. Uni
versity students appear to
be far more aware of the
purpose and activities of
Foundation Week, Haynie
added.
The purpose of Founda
tion Week is to benefit both
University faculty and stu
dents. "This is the third
year of Foundation Week,"
Haynie stated, "and it has
improved each year."
The University of Nebras
ka Foundation received $2.1
million in gifts last year
from alumni and friends, an
increase of more than a
half million dollars over the
previous year.
Amount Of Benefits
"Undoubtedly, the most
significant milestone
reached last year involved
the amount of benefits to
the University. For the first
time, the Foundation turned
over more than $1 million
in benefits in one year,"
Haynie stated.
The benefits were distri
buted as scholarships, fel
lowships, research, faculty
and University support,
e q u i p 'm e n t, distin
guished professorships, the
Sheldon Art Gallery and
the University State Mu
seum. Haynie told the trustees
that he was encouraged by
the continued increase

Students can expect the

said, "is that we have a

The problem is that the

the sonnets that I would
like to publish."

experiencing more than a 10
per cent increase in the
number of donors." And, he
added, "the students are
realizing the importance of
private support to the qual

want to become a part of
the program."
Permanent Fund
A permanent fund to re
ward superior classroom
teaching, as judged by Uni
versity students, was estab
lished this week by the Ne
braska Builders, a student
service organization.
Builders took the initial
step in endowing the Stu
dent Professorship Award
with a gift of $1,000 to the
University of N e b r a s
ka Foundation.
The Student Profes
sorship Award is presented
annually at Honors Convo
cation to a University fac
ulty member nominated by
students.
Reward Teaching
Jeff Kushner, president of
Builders, said the Award
was originated by the Build
ers two years ago in an ef
fort to reward outstanding
classroom teaching.
"It is now our hope to
permanently endow the
Award so that the income
will support the Fund down
through the years. We feel
strongly thai faculty mem
bers should be rewarded
for their interest in stu
dents and outstanding
Vreeland competition since
the winners will be printed
in the Prairie Schooner.
McLanahan hopes to
know the Vreeland win
ners this week, so that he
can select the sonnets he
wishes to publish.
