Last year 115 Corpsmen
passed the test, Rail noted.
FIRST YEAR
During its first year of
operation in 1966-67, the Lin
coln Job Corps Center pro
cessed 2,597 Corpsmen in,
Rail explained. Over 1500
left after one year, and 674
of the men had confirmed
placements. '
Most of the confirmed
placements were jobs, he
said, although 31 men went
back to high school and 79
joined the military.
The Corpsmen go through
the center's training pro
gram at their own rate,
Rail said. It usually takes
between four and ten
months.
TRAINING SYSTEM
The Lincoln Job Corps
Center uses a training sys
tem developed by Dr. My
ron Woolman. Each indi

Regents Approve Bids
For Swimming Pool
Enclosed Pool To Cost
The Board of Regents ap
proved bids on an enclosed
swimming pool to be built
near the Abel-Sandoz dorm
itory complex at a meeting
Friday.
The Board postponed a
decision on who would be al

a later meeting.
Chancellor Clifford M.

Celebrity Dates Success
For University Students
Gentlemen, and ladies,
prefer blondes according to
Steve Curry and Ann
Meyer, who had first-hand
experience with celebrity
dating at Saturday's Minnesota-Nebraska
game.
Miss Meyer and Curry
were the University of Ne
braska winners of Clairol's
"Date a Blonde" Contest.
Lee Majors, star of TV's
"Big Valley" was Miss
Meyer's escort and Sivi
Aberg, Miss Sweden, was
Curry's date.
A pre-game luncheon was
followed by a limousine ride
to the game, Curry said.
Miss Aberg "enjoyed the
game very much," Curry
said.
"She had only seen one
other football game, the
super bowl, "so I kept her
informed on the action."
After the game the four
some dined and danced at
a nightclub. "We discussed
our answers on the ques
tionnarie," Miss Meyer
said.
Curry said that Miss
Aberg was as he expected,
very attractive, but taller
than he anticipated. "S h e
must have been 5' 11" or 6'
toaH," he said.
Curry reported that he
had no trouble communicat
ing with his date, but that
she had a slight accent. She
had never heard of the word
"barn," he said.

Plans call for enclosing
the pool with glass doors on
three sides which will be
opened for use during the
summer months.
The chancellor said the
pool was the first of a ser

months.
After several Regents
challenged the fairness of
opening the pool only to
Abel-Sandoz dwellers during
the school year, the Board
voted to table a decision on
who would use the pool until
a later date.
Hardin said the pool will
be built in an area off the
walk between Sandoz and
Abel Halls.
ASUN President Dick
Schulze, addressing the
Board as "a resident of Uni

years and an employee for
three," praised the group
for approving the pool allo

Inter-Dorm Council
Approves By-laws
The Inter-Dormitory As
sociation Council approved
three by-laws proposed by
Tom Briggs, administrative
co-ordinating chairman, last
week.
The first by-law clarifies
the position of the IDA
vice-president.
It states that the vice
president shall be a per
manent member of the As
sociation Council, and is
empowered to participate
in all debate and introduce
all types of legislation. He
will exercise no vote in
matters of Council deliber
ation except as outlined in
the Constitution.
PARLIAMENTARIAN
By-law II provides for an
office of parliamentarian
on the council. The parlia
mentarian shall be a non
voting member of the Coun
cil and shall decide on par
liamentary disputes.
The third by-law adopted
by the council dealt with
the format of IDA legisla
tion, stating that all legis
lation of the Council shall
take the form of a council
resolution, a council act, or
a by-law of the Association.
The purpose of this by-law
is to simplify and clarify
Council procedure Briggs
said.
EXPLANATION
He explained that a res
olution is a "statement of
position" which could be
presented to the adminis
tration or to the Associa
ation. An act is a point of law,
he said, which does not
define the policy of IDA as
does a resolution.
Vice-President, Dave
Shonka, reminded the Coun
cil that the IDA is the sec
ond largest organization on
campus, second only to
ASUN.
