I Nebraska center Dale Von Seggern and Kansas State's 7-1 Nick Pino fight it out un-
1 der the boards in Saturday night's Coliseum clash. But the game itself turned out to be less
of the expected fight than a runaway, as the Huskers thumped the Wildcats, 92-68. For the

Senate execs
for Evaluation Book head
by Jim Evinger
Senior Staff Writer
ASUN executives are still
searching for co-chairman for the
Faculty Evaluation Booklet com
mittee. , . ,
ASUN President Dick Schulze
and Gene Pokorny, first vice
president, talked last Friday
with one candidate who refused
to take ona of the two positions.
Bill Origer, assistant chairman
to editor of the last Faculty Eval
uation Booklet, Tom Morgan,
turned down the job.
"He was not willing to do what
we'd like him to do," Pokorny
said.
Origer said he turned down an
offer from Schulze and Pokorny
to aid in editing the book because
he basically objects to the slow
ness in their appointing succes
sors. Kicking the football
Origer called the project a foot
ball which Pokorny and Schulze
have been kicking around since
last December.
"They've made a football out of
the whole project a little too long,"
Origer said.
He sees the Faculty Evaluation
Booklet as a semester by semes
ter continuous program. He said
this must be continuous to grow
in popular acceptance by faculty
and students.
"From an economical stand
point, however, the publishing of
the booklet each year would be
more realistic than a booklet every
semester," Origer said.
$500 loss
The booklet edited by Morgan
which came out last November
lost at least $500, Pokorny said.
Origer said it would be possible,
though hard, for the new editors
to publish a book in time for sec
ond semester registration next
fall.
The executives do have per
sons to contact whom they con
sider competent and favorable to
the style of booklet desired, ac
cording to Pokorny.
Pokorny said immediacy is not
a primary problem in selecting the
editors. Instead, the executives
consider that changing the f 0 r
mat of the book is more impor
tant. In time for fall
"We won't publish unless the
old one can be improved upon,"
he said. He did express confidence
that the booklet will come out in
time for the fall registration.
The executives desire a booklet
with "more subjectivity and live
liness, without irresponsiblity in
. the evaluations," Pokorny said.
Origer said he was willing to
undertake the project in Decem
ber. In an interview with Schulze,
he was told he would be contacted
later in the year. Pokorny called
him last Tuesday and the three
met last Friday.
Time-lapse troubles
Origer objects to this lapse of
time, which he blames on the ex
ecutives. Since, the December meeting,
guidelines and a general frame
work for the booklet committee to
follow have been worked out by
Pokorny and Schulze.
It is the executives' hope that
with the editors pursuing a gen
eral framework in their own way
that the booklet can be a means
for affecting change in the Uni
versity community.
Show what we want'
"We want to show faculty mem
bers what we want in an instruc
tor in the classroom situation
not what we already have,"
Pokorny said.
Origer commented that those
ideas and others of the executives
are good, but that some would be
difficult to implement.
One idea Pokorny and Schulze
would like; to see effected is the
inclusion of evaluations by gradu
ate assistants and students.
'More subjective'
Their evaluations would be
more subjective and less intimi
dated than those of most under
graduates, Pokorny said.
"I'd hate to play with their
football after they've let the air
out of it," Origer said, referring
to what he sees as a failure by
the executives to provide contin
uity in the committee.
The previous two booklets were
headed by single chairmen.
Pokorny said that because the
job of publishing has proven to be
too large a work load for one
chairman, the executives are
seeking to appoint co-chairmen.
One would be in charge of the
questionnaire, including composing
the questions, distributing the
forms and compiling the results
from a computer.
The other editor's task would
be to write the book. His job, as
the executives see it, is to de
velop a new approach for writing
the actual evaluations.
Girl enters no plea
in marijuana case
A University coed bound over
to Lancaster District Court for
trial last week has entered no plea
to the charge of possession of
marijuana.
Patricia L. Lilly, 18, of Omaha,
was arrested Jan. 8 in her room
at Love Residence Hall by a State
Patrol drug agent and a Lincoln
police detective.
At her preliminary hearing,
Lancaster County Court Judge
Ralph Slocum turned down a re
quest made by the defense coun
sel that charges be dismissed for
lack of evidence.
Search warrant
The State Patrol agent, James
L. Divern. testified that Miss Lilly
gave him a plastic bag contain
ing marijuana when she was con
fronted with a search warrant
and asked if she had any mari
juana in her room.
According to Divern, Miss Lilly
Statement backs
in open house
by Mark Gordon
Senior Staff Writer
A statement supporting the
principle behind Harper Hall's
resolution defying University open
house policy was unanimously
passed Thursday by the Inter
Dormitory Association (IDA)
Council.
The statement also resolved to
protect any member resident or
dormitory from prosecution under
the controversial open door policy.
Introduced by S e 1 1 e c k IDA
member Mike Eyster, the state
ment of policy, also requested
the faculty committee on student
affairs to consider rescinding the
open door regulation of the new
open house policy.
I Against article five
The statement resolved that
". . . IDA reaffirms its previous
resolutions on open house policy
by fully supporting the principles
of action taken by . . . Harper
Hall and that the IDA will use all
legal channels to protect any resi
dent of a member dormitory or
the dormitory itself from prosecu
tion under article five."
The open door policy, article
five of the stipulations passed
earlier by the subcommittee on
student activities, states:
"All doors except those of resi
dents absent from the floor dur
ing the open house must remain
open and those residents leaving

Bruce Bailey, Cather Hall presi
dent and Mike Eyster, Selleck
Quad president, will run unop
posed for Inter-Dormitory Associ
ation (IDA) president and vice
president, respectively, in Fri
day's executive elections.
IDA president Brian Ridenour
made the announcement at Thurs
day's IDA Council meeting and
said the two residence hall exe
cutives would run on a ticket.
A junior architecture major
from Omaha, Bailey is currently
chairman of the ASUN executive
committee on Student Senate
election evaluation.
Eyster, a sophomore history
major, is an IDA representative
from Selleck and a member of the
ASUN committee headed by
Bailey.
Following last week's IDA meet
ing, Tom Briggs, chairman of the
IDA administrative coordinating
committee, reported he was re
signing from IDA claiming the or
ganization failed to support Harp
er Hall "the way it should have"
in its three-fold statement of pol
icy.
Briggs had earlier reported to
the Council his committee was a
"gross failure" during the past
year.
In other IDA business, Ride
nour said Schramm Hall, the
lone residence hall among t h e
new three-dormitory complex that
has not voted on IDA member
ship would vote on joining IDA
Monday.
told him she had obtained the
marijuana in Omaha over Christ
mas vacation and had agreed to
pay an unnamed friend $10 for
it.
Furthermore, Divern said that
Miss Lilly told him she had
smoked marijuana only once since
her return to the campus after
the vacation.
Offered to others
Divern added that Miss Lilly
had revealed to him that she had
offered the marijuana to four other
students but that they had all re
fused. Divern testified that at the po
lice department Miss Lilly was
granted her request to call a priest
after the arrest.
Miss Lilly was released on $1,
000 bond, She has been bound
over to Lancaster District Court
for triaL
the floor must register their ab
sence with the responsible offic
er." Intermittent applause
In passing two motions and re
jecting a proposal to omit the
statement's second clause, the
Council's discussion was inter
rupted by intermittent bursts of
applause from the more than 100
spectators mostly from Harper
Hall. .
The lengthy debates over the
three motions revolved around
those supporting Harper Hall's ac
tions and the Abel-Sandoz IDA
delegation.
During a Feb. 4 Harper II a 1 1
open house, the dormitory refused
to enforce the open door policy
after the Harper Student Senate
passed a motion announcing its
intentions to openly violate the
policy.
Report submitted
A report submitted to the Office
of Student Affairs last week by
Harper residence director Allen
Olsen named 332 Harper residents
who violated the policy, an in
formed source told the Daily
Nebraskan last week.
G. Robert Ross, dean of stu
dent affairs, said Sunday that
his office is hopeful of resolving
the cases of those whose names
were submitted to him for vilat
ing the polcy.
He said he was unprepared to

cerning possible disciplinary ac
tions that could be initiated
against the more than 95 per cent
of the hall residents.
Mass violation
Ross said the student af
fairs staff discussed the matter
last yeek and talked with Allen
Olsen, Harper Hall residence di
rector, about the mass violation.
Ross added that the student af
fairs staff has not met personal
ly with any of the violators.
Channels exhausted
At the meeting Harper Presi
dent Bill Chaloupka said the
hall decided on radical action be
cause all existing channels wer
exhausted. Richard Page, A b e 1
Sandoz IDA member, introduced
a motion to abolish the policy's
second resoltuion.
"All the channels haven't been
exhausted," Page said in claim
ing the IDA should work with ad
'mircistration officials in respon
sible manner.
After the two-hour meeting at
the Harper-Smith-Schramm d i n
ing area, both Chaloupka and
Page said they were satisfied
with the entire statement.
In other open house matters,
IDA vice president Dave Shonka
said a petition denouncing article
five has been signed by 71 resi
