Thursday, October 3, 1968 The Daily Nebraskan Page 5 Now where are those specs? There is no department store on the first floor of Nebraska Hall it's only the University Lost and Found department. By August though, lost and found looks a bit like a department store, well stock ed with books, clothes, rings, glasses, lamps, and even tires. Almost anything a stu dent might own turns up at the lost md found sometime. DAN RILEY, campus mail postmaster and keeper of the lost and found, says that most lost and found items come from the custodians of University buildings. The custodians keep the articles in the building for about a week before turning them over to lost and found, Riley continued. This is to let the student have time to look for the item where he lost it. If the item is not claimed within a week it goes to Nebraska Hall. It is kept there until the following September 1st. Riley said that already there are about 50 text books and 15 or 20 jackets and sweaters that have collected since the beginning of school. There are also numerous notebooks of all kinds. Each lost item receives a different treatment if it is not claimed by September. Clothing is sent to local welfare agencies. Books are returned to the University Book Store where they are sold as used books'. Prescrip- Gov. Hughes, D-Iowa, organizes canvassers; provides travel expenses University students wishing to help Iowa's Gov. Harold Hughes in his bid for the Senate may campaign in the Hawkeye State at no ex pense according to the governor's headquarters. Hughes' campaign office contacted University student Larry Fuchser to organize groups of canvassers to travel to Sioux City, la., each week end until the election, Nov. 5. "THERE WILL be no ex pense for students," Fuchser said. "The governor's cam paign finances will cover travel costs and food. Students will live in volunteer housing, provided by Sioux City residents." Fuchser expects around 15 students to head north this week-end, but hopes that the number will increase a s election date nears. "If a student is concerned about politics, if he thinks that there is no one he can acitvely support in this state, but wants to work for some one, then Gov. Hughes is the one," he said. The governor, a Democrat, nominated Sen. Eugene McCarthy for president at the Democratic National Con vention in Chicago. Students interested in working for Hughes should contact Fuchser at 466-1998; Jim Humlicek at 477-6081; or Kitty O'Leary at 432-0329. tion glasses are kept for two years and then sent to a charitable organization called "New Eyes for the Needy." Since there is no ready way to dispose of them, class rings are kept indefinitely. There are now about 50 that have been collected in the past five years, Riley said. "If there is a name in the things," he continued, "we make every effort to contact the owner. It is much easier to return things properly when we know who they belong to." One of the problems in the system, Riley said, is that many students come to lost and found as soon as they lose something. Since it takes at least a week for an item to be sent to lost and found, it is usually not there. He continued that the student coming in at least a week after he loses something would have a much better chance of finding it. The department is in room 112 of Nebraska Hall, just in side the 17th Street entrance. So, if you've lost your glasses, your books, your jacket, notebook, or ring, you just might find them snugly nestled away in the Universi ty lost and found. Plans unhindered by small funds Hamilton seeks personal contact, feels hard work can do much The New Party's success in the first district will be measured in terms of the number of people it can reach, Bruce Hamilton, New Party candidate for Congress, said Tuesday. Hamilton admitted that he will never have the financial base of the other two con gressional candidates, although he is receiving con tributions in small amounts. He added, however, that much can be done with hard working people and persistence. HAMILTON EXPRESSED the hope that tie can travel to every county in the first sdistrict. The 26-year-old Lincoln native feels that it is important that he carry his campaign beyond, the University of Nebraska. We have a good percen tage of our workers and financial support .in the University, but we must move beyond Lincoln to the out- state areas, ' he said. Of the thirteen colleges in the first district contacted by Hamilton headquarters, nine nave responded and are organizations, Hamilton said, said. Hamilton thinks that all classes of people in Nebraska will be a source of strength in his campaign. "I believe that a significant percentage of the people of the first district agree with us on vital issues," Hamilton said. The candidate stressed that the only protest campaign he is running is a protest against the lack of discussion of im portant issues by national and state candidates. "The issues which I con sider to be of vital importance were not being confronted and presented to the people before I entered the race," Hamilton said. Hamilton listed the three primary issues he felt had been neglected as the war in Vietnam, poverty and racism. THE PEOPLE who responded to Sen. McCarthy and the late Sen. Kennedy have been denied their voice In government to end the Vietnam war, according to Hamilton. "The Vietnam war .must be ended as soon as it is prac tically possible," he 6aid. Hamilton labeled poverty, on farms as well as in cities, and racism as the root cause for the growing division in American society. He continued, "The time is now for government, private enterprise and the people to meet these problems head on." Believing that he will draw support from both major political parties, Hamilton said, "Members of both parties are dissatisfied with the manner of campaigning on the local as well as na tional scene." According to Hamilton, the j criticism that he will only draw votes from Democratic candidate Clair Callan is not true. "Not all Republicans sup port the war in Vietnam or wish to avoid the issues of poverty and racism," he said. Hamilton added, "Republicans like Mayor John Lindsay of New York and Sen. Charles Percy of Il linois have been speaking out on these issues along with McCarthy and Kennedy." HAMILTON recently con tacted Callan and Congressman Robert Denney requesting that all three can didates meet to discuss the issues publicly. Callan replied that he would, provided that all three candidates participated in the discussion. Con. Denney said that he would be unable to debate because his work in Congress limited the number of ap pearances Nebraska. he could make in "Nevertheless, six have been scheduled at which all three candidates will be present. The candidates are scheduled to appear at Nebraska Wesleyan University on Oct. 13, at Grace Methodist Church on Oct. 20 and at the University of Nebraska on Oct. 29. .
