Creighton debates
mandatory ROTC
To march or not to march
or everyone step to the left
"The battle lines have been
drawn at Creighton Universi
ty and the future of man
datory ROTC at the school
may be at stake.
- The Creighton Student
Board of Governors Sunday
night passed a resolution
supporting freshman and
sophomore students who have
challenged ROTC dress codes,
refusing to cut their hair to
military standards.'
-APPROXIMATELY 10 0
ROTC students have boycot
ted military classes and labs,
although ROTC officers at the
school interpret this as
meaning the rest of the
students attending classes
support the military dress
code.
Mandatory ROTC for
freshmen and sophomores has
come under attack from
students frequently in recent
years! " Last year 1,131
students of an approximately
4,200 enrollment signed a
petition urging the abolition of
mandatory ROTC.
The vote of Sunday night's
resolution was 15 for three
against, three abstaining and
three absent.
Although no official word
has come from the Creighton
administration, the Creighton
chapter of the American
Association of University
Professors has assigned a
three-man committee to In
vestigate the matter and
report to the chapter.
THE BOARD of Governors'
resolution reads:
"Resolved:
That the Student Board
of Governors supports
and endorses the work of
student class officers . . .
who have endeavored, on
the basis of the National
Joint Statement on Stu
dent Rights and
Freedoms, as well as the
university dress code, to
rid the academic com
munity of the arbitrary
and non-academic
personal appearance and
grooming code prescribed
by the Military Science
Department for un
dergraduate freshmen
and sophomore men in
ROTC. Furthermore, the
Student Board of
Governors calls upon the
academic deans, the vice
president of academic
affairs, and other ap
propriate administrators
to the prompt and clear
cut action on this basic
issue of student rights."
SENIOR FRANK Schepers,
vice-chairman of the Student
Life Policy Committee, was
quoted by the Creightonian,
the school's student
newspaper, as saying that
personal appearance as to
one s grooming cannot be
regulated by an academic in
tegral. Schepers said that the
university doea have the
power to change the situation

Nebraska Union officials
face the problems of moving
Into the new Crib and
allocating office space to
campus organizations, as
construction on the Nebraska
Union nears completion.
"We are making a serious
effort to move into the Crib
by the end of Thanksgiving
vacation," Allen Bennett,
Union director, said Sunday.
WHEN COMPLETED, the
Li'.' -H Tr ill! )

isn't this the way Michaelangelo
started?
Crib will be about twice as
large as it was before con
struction began, according to
Bennett. The new eating
facility will be able to serve
approximately 500 people.
"We have exceeded
estimated completion dates
several times," he added. "I
am more concerned over the
services we are failing to
render, however, than the
money that delayed comple
tion is costing us."
According to Bennett, the
cafeteria has been operating
both as the Crib and
cafeteria.
"NORMALLY, the cafeteria
will be open on Monday
through Friday from 11 a.m.
to 1:15 p.m. and again from 5
p.m. to 6:45 p.m," he con
tinued. "The cafeteria will not
be open at all on Saturdays
after football season ends."
There is not enough office
space for the 280 campus
organizations, Bennett said.
The Union Board will have to
deal with the economic pro
blem of who is to have space.
"As a member of the board,
my feeling is that the most
equitable means of deciding
which groups will have space
is to let all organizations bid
for offices," Bennett added.
"The board should let all
organizations express their
need for office space."
The Union Board will allot
office space on a first-come
first-serve basis to the
organizations which serve the
most people on a continuing
basis, he said.
Break A Leg, the actor's
traditional "good luck,"
almost becomes reality in the
Abel-Sandoz-IDA production
of "A Funny Thing Happened
on the Way to the Forum."
According to actors Kent
Davy, Brant Eaton and Paul
Starr, the play contains more
than a normal share of tripp
ing and slapstick humor.
Starr said it was almost a
miracle that someone hadn't
already broken bones. '
"PRACTICE HAS been
going on for about six
weeks," Davy said. "The play
looks very good and we think
that it is going to be better
than any residence hall prod
uction that has come before
it."
Eaton added, "This has to
be a good play. After six
weeks of practice we're still
laughing at the jokes."
"Our main problem in
building the set has been
building space," technical
director Terry McClellen
said. He continued that the
set had to be entirely built in
the basement of Sandoz Hall.
"What we had to do," he
said, "was to build a set that
could be used by a touring
company. This is effective
enough, but several
problems can only be found
whan the set is assembled."
HE CONTINUED that the
move to the Union Ballroom
had to be made very quickly.
"If it hadn't been for some of
the Union people we could
have never finished," he said.
"Parts of the set are almost
stronger than the foundation
of the Union," McClellen said.
This heavy construction was
necessary because of the
rough acti6n of the play and
the thinness of stage
materials.
"Dean Tsohetter," he said,
"did a fery good job of
designing the set. It utilizes
space very well, which is im
portant in a large cast play."
FORUM WILL be presented
this Thursday, Friday, and

In order to keep your contact lenses as
comfortable and convenient as they wert
meant to be, you have to take care of
them. But until now you needed two or
more separate solutions to properly
prepare and maintain your contacts. Not
with Lensine. Lensine is the one lens
solution for complete contact lens car.
Cleaning your contacts with Lensine
retards the buildup of foreign deposits on
the lenses. And soaking your contacts in
Lensine overnight assures you of proper
lens hygiene. You get a free soaking case
on the bottom of every bottle of Lensine.
It has been demonstrated that improper
storage between wearings may result in
the growth of bacteria on the lenses.
Thii is a uib Cause Of eye irriiaiiun and
in some cases can endanger your vision.
Bacteria cannot grow in Lensine which it
sterile, self-sanitizing, and antiseptic.
Just a drop or two of Lensine, before you
insert your lens, coats and lubricates it
allowing the tens to float more freely in
tne eye s fluids. That s because
Lensine is an "isotonic" solution.
wmcn means that it blends with
the natural fluids of the eye.
Let your contacts be the
convenience they were
meant to be. Get
some Lensine, from the
Murine Company, Inc.
