It was also agreed that ASUN Share eqcal power and res ponsibility with ad ministration and faculty in matter of University Housing policy and non-social disciplinary matters.

The bureau is concerned only with prevailing or average weather conditions in the Nebraska area, which are determined by extensive studies over a period of years, according to Richard E. Myers, Nebraska state climstologist. OmiTOLOGY, he ex plained, is a specialized field of meteorology. A climatologist "tries to define the climate of a given area and ts not concerned with predicting future weather conditions.

"THE TONE of several statements assumes a taking of power," Brown said. He ex plained there was an adverse reaction by administrators to this wording. "The basic principles are already agreed to and have been adopted by the whole U a i v ersity community," Brown stated. He explained instead This information is compil ed each day and a sheet summarizing day by day weather information is printed monthly, he said. The sheet contains a multitude of facts, such as the highest winds on each day and a sheet summarizing day by day weather information is printed monthly, he said. The sheet contains a multitude of facts, such as the highest winds on each day of the month or the hour by hour precipitation readings cf any day of the month. THIS INFORMATION sheet is published at the National Weather Records Center in Asherille, North Carolina. Myers said. The Center also publishes dtaa from other bureaus across the nation.

Dreeszen said the wording would be changed for Wednesday's Student Senate meeting to more accurately intone the intent of the bill. Categorical criticism of the bill Monday centered on the open-endedness of several statements regarding student control. Senator Bruce Cochrane objected to the lack of explicit indication as to direction or extent of the ex n T in -mi mrimr I in M ure&u defines, complies of predicting weather United States Department of commerce," Myers said. He works for the federal govern ment, but also lectures in meteorology at the Universi ty. The bureau is federally controlled, but its benefits o directly to the state, Myers emphasized. NUMEROUS individuals and agencies throughout Nebraska utilize the services of the bureau, he said. "Some of the most impor tant users of bureau in formation are farmers, who are concerned with the grow, ing season," Myers said. In formation compiled by the bureau is useful in determining the suitability of many crops to Nebraska. The Department of Aeronautics is building a drainage system for a runway and needed know the, i ercise of powers in the bill, particularly the section men tioning regulation of student fees. A STATEMENT of policy was agreed to as necessary to accompany the bill to explain its intent and give examples of the ends of the bill as viewed by the Senators. The bin was written within the last week by a small group of Senators who have been formulating it all year. The bill reflects original thought as well as phrases adopted from similar acts by ether schools, Dreeszen said Tuesday. largest rain which could b expectod in 30 minutes. Using past records, the bureau was able to predict that the largest rain would be about three inches, Myers said. Sometimes lawsuits seed certified weather records from the past, and they are obtained from the bureau, ha added. ADVERSE WEATHER conditions often cause damage to railroad ship ments. Kesuning damage claims require past weather records for final settlement, be said. C onstructicm companies, county agents, corporations and numerous other people make use of the bureau's I rds, Myers vaid. The monthly sheets and annual summaries are available to anyone for a small charge, Myers caid. Is The game begins, whistles blow. The clock starts, the crowd tenses, The kick, caught, ran back, A tackle. Screams of elation, cheerleaders Trying to organize them. Coaches pacing, nervous, excited. Players are probably the coolest People in the stadium. The game Goes on. Announcers yell into their mikes. One, five yards, a pass incomplete Kick and the ball begins its treck In the opposite direction. The clock ticks on. Quarter and change Ends-directions. The ball is kicked, Passed, handed, landed on, dropped, Fumbled and cleaned many times. Anger swells. Crowd screams, yells, Throws snowballs, boos, booze, congratulates, Eats and drinks. Thousands of mouths Moving not in unison. Is this mania? The ref is not popular. Popularity changes Quickly to anger. Throw the bum out! Can't he see? Is he blind? Even the Coach is uptight. Finally TOUCHDOWN! Elation vs. sorrow. Game continues up and down the field. More screams, more music, More noise. Silence is swallowed up and disappears. Not everyone can win, but anger at last Subsides. We should have won, maybe Next year. Hurrays from the other Side of the field. Curses, epitaphs from The losers wild, beautiful elation From the winners. The game is over, No one really wins, where is the team? 73 m M OtlOfl dim is Continued from page 1 Dreeszen said that there are basically two kinds of power ASUN could have: that which is granted "from above" (i.e., the Regents): or, a consti tuency-based power, granted by the students. "We have neither," he said. But Dreeszen said that a motion soon to be placed be fore the Senate will be aimed NU professor's play premieres Two plays written by Joseph Baldwin, professor of speech and dramatic art at the University, win be presented on other campuses during this week. The author plans to see rehearsals and performances. The premiere of Baldwin's play "The House Within the House Within," win occur Nov. 21 at the University of Alabama. The play is entered in regional competition for in clusion in the National University Theater Festival. A committee of three judges win view the Alabama pro duction. His comedy, "Loosebough the First," win be produced at Wisconsin State University in Whitewater, Nov. 19-23. This play has been seen in productions at Alabama, Nebraska, the Kearney Com munity theater and 10 bases of the Third Army. addition, records of local weather conditions since the bureau's founding in the late inks art available. THE BUREAU was originally formed by a erouo of University professors with financial support given by the state government, Myers said. Gradually, the federal government took over the weather bureaus. For a time the entire Lin cola weather station wn located in Myers office. Not only were past records com piled, but weather predictions were ako made. Now the f-rocasitog part of the bureau has movti to the old Lincoln Air Force Base. Many pwple think that a weather bureau only predicts tomorrow's weather, Myers said, but manv oeoDle are cm- ceraed with yesterday's weather also.

"We will ask for control of student fees, control of the Union, final say in disciplinary action concerning students and of the non academic social affairs of the studeht body," Dreeszen ex plained. THE ASUN president can not foresee what will result from the motion. "It's up to the students and the administration to see if we can get the power," he commented- With student power, leaders on this campus are also ask ing for student responsibility. "Student power, as I see it, is really student responsibility," Phil Metcalf said. "I think the student power as well as quantity." "I THINK students can continue to demand, request and push for more individual responsibility," Schrekinger ; Sky Shoiv to feature first Xmas The new sky show at the University Ralph Mueller Planetarium will employ all the evidence cf history and modern astronomy to create a fascinating kind of Christmas story.

The University's assembly line technique is the brunt of the criticism of the student who is trying to change the institution. "I see the University turn ing out products. It's just a vocational school," Ron Warnet, a chemistry graduate student, said. "One can't learn to make decisions- It isn't valuable to people. In effect, it is dehumanizing them." WARNET TEACHES a course in the Nebraska Free University, which registered 1300 students this fan. "Certain courses this year are c h e 1 1 e n g i n g the University's teaching methods," Warnet said. "But in many instances it is just a personification of the rest of the University." Warnet feels that NFU could become " a lever to pun the University into change" if it is utilized correctly. Some feel that the ad ministration and the faculty in Lincoln are more "turned on" than the students. Orchestra planning annual fall concert The University Symphony Orchestra win feature work by contemporary Latin American composer Juan Orrego-Salas at its annual faU concert scheduled for 8 cm.. Monday, Nov. 24, in the Nebraska Union ballroom in Lincoln. The orchestra, under the direction of Prof. Emanuel Wishnow, director of the University's School of Music, win perform Orrego-Salas' "Obertura Festiva" as part of a Latin American Fine Arts Festival now in progress on the campus. ORREGO-SALAS, a native of Chfle who is presently teaching at the University of Indiana School of Music, has been recognized both in America and Europe through commissions, awards and performances of his works by major orchestras, soloists and chamber groups. He has appeared on many campuses, including the University of Nebraska where be was guest composer-lecturer for tie School of Music Contemporary Music Series in 1957. He has twice been the reci pient of Guggenheim FeUowsLios for comnnrion and has been awarded the "I THINK the students are out of touch with the Universi ty," said Dave BunneU. He said that the students' "lack of research" and the "lack of articulte people who can tie issues together" are two reasons for the apparent student disinterest Dreeszen blames this disinterest on the lack of com munication among the students themselves, not on the lack of communication between students and faculty or students and administration- THERE ARE NO plans to takeover the Administration Building or to bomb the ROTC building, as have hap. pened on other campuses this year. But there does exist on he University campus what could be labeled "militant utiliza tion of the system " Campus leaders are using what power the have now as a base from which to work, hoping to build a larger base However, as Craig Dreeszen put it, "it's up to the students and the administra tion" to see what win be ac complished. Rockefeller Foundatioa Fellowship for creative researcs in music. The opening selection wffl be "Festive Overture" by Shostakovitch, the best known of the contemporary Soviet composers who has enjoyed the artistic approval of the musical world since 1938. Debussy's "Afternoin of a Faun" was to have been written in connection with the public recitation of a poem but the work, in Debussy's judgement, said ail for him that he intended and the other sections were never written. This imaginative composi tion features the woodwind! and the harp. THE "MEXIETTO" by Bolzoni is from mie of his string quartets and is widely used by symphony orchestra string sections. The melodies of Tschaikowsky in the "Symphony No. S in B minor," sepecially tht famsf Andante cairtsblle, are amosg the best knows and treasured music of the late lttli and early 20th centuries and con tinue to be highly popular ia uie United States.
