The fall All University Fund
(AUF.) drive has netted somewhere
around $5,500, according to Tom
Wiese, president-elect of AUF.
Wiese said the total this year was
up about $1000 over last year. The
total is based on solicitations this
fall of all living units and Lincoln
students, and a dance.
The dance made about $800, he
explained. AUF operates within a

Mrs. Spence said.
Tote bags, coin purses, tissue
holders and "queschquemtls"
(which are short ponchos) can be
purchased in bright colors. Pillows
are also available.
Pottery is another popular gift
item at the shop. A spice jar set
made by Angelo Garzio sells for
$28. Raku pottery by Wayne Higby
is also featured.
One item can be sensed before it

Husker,

by Randy York
Assistant Sports Editor
Nebraska's Monday night
basketball game with Michigan
State at the Coliseum produced not
only a 73-59 Husker triumph, but
also created a mutual coaching
agreement.
Nebraska's Joe Cipriano and
Michigan State's John Bennington
exchanged obvious expressions of
disapproval with the officiating as
each coach collected a technical
foul in the game.
After Cip was assessed his
technical in the first half, he looked
to the Michigan State bench and
received Bennington's consent on
the play. Both coaches laughed.
BENNINGTON INCURRED his
infraction in the second half, and
after so being charged, walked over
to the Husker bench, shook hands
with Cipriano, and both coaches
laughed again.

per cent operational budget.
He said the money will be
donated this spring to five charities
chosen by students earlier this
year. They are Multiple Sclerosis,
USO, Keep Biafra Alive Com
mittee, Heart Association and the
American Cancer Society.
There will be a faculty drive
conducted by AUF members this
spring. Money collected in that
drive has traditionally gone to an
organization in the Lincoln community.
Experimental name
part of home ec lab
by Bill Smitherman
Nebraskan Staff Writer
One of tfc most demanding labs
at the University of Nebraska is the
Home Economics Management
Lab. This lab takes 24 hours a day.
The lab lasts for five weeks, ac
cording to Home Economics in
structor Peggy Wahn. During this
time six girls live together and do
their own cooking, cleaning, and all
other activities associated with
normal housekeeping.
SHE SAID., that a married
graduate assistant also lives in the
unit. During the lab time the assis
tant teaches a daily class and
grades the students on their normal
duties.
Home Mangement Labs have
been in existence at Nebraska since
the 1920's, she said. At first they
were known as "practice houses"
and were considered the culmina
tion of a Home Economics educa
tion. The original "houses" were con
ducted in converted residences
near the city campus. Their object
was to give the students a chance
to practice what they bad learned
in their classes, she said.
THE LABS ORIGINALLY
included the care of children.
However, this portion of the cur
riculum has been dropped.
Students were required to live in
the house for the full period in the
early labs. There were no pro
made by the Cuna Indians of
Panama.
"Each item has been hand-ap-pliqued
by the Indians," she ex
plained. "A special technique
utilizes layers of cloth, but I am not
sure how it is done."
The shop also has a large selec
tion of paperback books, ranging in
subject matter from trends in the
arts to the art of the film.
POSTER devotees can buy a
copy of the poster announcing
Sheldon's exhibit of prints and
sculpture by Gaston Lachaise of
last spring.
The shop will be open until Dec.
24, Mrs. Spence said, operating
under normal gallery hours 10:00
a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Tuesday through
Saturday, 2:00 pjn. to 5:00 p.m. on
Sunday.
Spartan coaches
Similar instances occurred in the
game as both coaches discourag
ingly accepted the decisions of
referees Don Wedge and Ben
Dreith.
The Huskers posted their fifth
victory against one setback with a
well-balanced team effort. Jim
Brooks and Marv Stewart provided
the impetus to turn back the
Spartans, who suffered their second
loss of the season, the other coming
Saturday night to nationally-ranked
Western Kentucky, 67-63.
Brooks tipped in two stray
Nebraska shots at the outset of the
game, wound up with 17 points and
tied Leroy Chalk for rebounding
honors with 11.
SCORING HONORS, however,
went to the aggressive Stewart,
who engineered the Husker fast
break besides depositing four long
range fielder. He finished with 22
Wiese broke the total $6000
solicitations into three groups. He
said independent living units and
off-campus students contributed
some $1600; the fall dance made
about $800; and Greek houses con
tributed some $3100.
Fraternities contributed $950
Wiese said. He explained this was
up slightly from last year's total
but added that a number of houses
had previously contributed to an
IFC drive to raise funds for Biafra.
visions for married students or for
students who could not live in the
lab for other reasons. Miss Wahn
said that emphasis of the early
labs was on the absolute "right and
wrong" of situations and pro
cedures. Today the emphasis is different.
"Instead of simply practicing the
practical aspects, girls practice the
theory of home management," she
said.
"Instead of teaching the strictly
right and wrong way to do
something, we try to teach what is
right or wrong in the context of a
specific situation," she continued.
"The new emphasis in the lab is on
people, not things."

Big
points on 6-11 field goal tries and
10-13 free throw attempts.
Steady Bob Gratopp and flashy
Tom Scantlebury did their part in
the win, too. Gratopp was suc
cessful on five of eight tries from
the field and canned four of five
free throws for 14 points.
Scantlebury popped in 15 points,
but inflicted major damage with
timely assists to Gratopp. Scantz
revealed an assortment of offensive
maneuvers, one of which was an
unorthodox scoop shot while fouled.
He shot over 50 per cent from the
field and contributed eight re
bounds. Michigan State, which held one
point leads on three occasions in
the early going, were paced by Lee
Lafayette. The 6-6 center, who
averaged over 18 points a game
last season for the Big Ten
Spartans, was held to 14 points.
Bernie Copeland added 12 points.
That drive collected over $1000
from fraternity houses.
"There were rather substantial
contributions received from houses
that had given small or average
amounts before," Wiese said, ad
ding "that several former large
contributing houses gave very little
or nothing this year."
He explained the fraternity total
has been slowly increasing over the
past few years and noted that there
were slightly fewer houses con
tributing this year than previously.
papers and projects in the class
portion of the lab. The participants
are graded on the nearness of their
performance to a criteria set up
before the lab begins, she said.
Students carry out projects ia
standards and work simplification.
They also do practical work in ef
ficiency and lowering total expen
diture of energy.
Two entertainment projects must
be carried out during the lab, she
continued. These may be almost
any kind of entertainment and are
completely planned by the students
themselves. They also do a house
improvement project that can
range from washing windows to
making new curtains. Again, th
choice of projects is left to tht
students.
