requires suspension
for marijuana conviction
The Legislature Friday passed LB
8 requiring 30-day suspension of col
lege students convicted of marijuana
possession. Monday the senators will
rebate whether to allow 18-year-olds
to drink 3.2 beer. Both bills are
s ;onsored by Sen. Terry Carpenter.
LB 8 provides for a mandatory 30
chy suspension of students convicted
and states that any university ad
ministrator failing to carry out such
.suspension would be subject to a fine
up to $500 and removal from office.
DESPITE WARNINGS from Assist.
Atty. Gen. C. C. Sheldon that the bill
may be unconstitutional, the bill was
approved 34-8. Opponents Indicated
they were disturbed by the hint of
unconstitutionality and thought that
suspension should be left to university
administrators or that the bill should
be otherwise improved.
Under LB 8, students could be
suspended even though the marijuana
possession occurrred far from campus
where it would not interfere with
university operation. This could be
constitutionally questionable, the
ustice Department official said,
itemoving a university official from
office also runs into constitutional
questions.
SEVERAL SENATORS said a court
test of LB 8 appears certain if Gov.
N'orbert T. Tiemann signs it into
law.
Sen. Carpenter and others argued
that the marijuana problem is so
serious that something needs to be
Student vets
support LB17
A second group of legal-age students
1 as joined the drive favoring re-intro-d
action of the state Legislative bill
t at would legalize 3.2 beer for 18
y ar-olds.
The Student Veteran's Organization,
composed of about 45 members who
.--e all 21 or over, passed a resolution
ednesday night that supports re-in-roduction
of LB 17 by the Miscel
laneous Subjects Committee. The bill
as defeated there almost immedi
ptely after it was introduced at the
1 ginning of the current Legislative
s ssion.
Earlier this week, Wallace Weld,
? 29-year-old University student, led
I e first student group in a petition
f rive supporting LB 17s re-introduc-
l.on.
Weld said that he would submit the
petition to Sen. Terry Carpenter who
- onsored the original introduction.
eld said that he wanted to get the
I) ii "on the floor," but added that it
v ould probably fail there as it has
i ready done in committee.
The student veterans also passed
i -ianimously a resolution supporting
1 J 48, the Veterans Bonus Bill, which
juld provide $20 million annually be
! .aning in 1970 for payment to veter
; n's who served during World War II,
Iirea and Vietnam.
Applicants for payment under the
h'll could receive up to $500 depending
i: on the type and length of service.
President of the Student Veterans,
Tennis Hetherington, said the organ
isation is also going to write to state
universities throughout the nation to
i xplore the feasibility of starting a
i.ational student vet's organization.
Law enforcement classes to be given in Lincoln
us progrm expands from Omaha campus
Law enforcement classes will be
ffered next fall for the first time
ia the Lincoln campus, according to
L. Kuchel, chairman of the
J 3partment of Law Enforcement and
(Direction at the University of
.Nebraska at Omaha.
"We already have a four-year-'?gree
program in Omaha where
udents can earn a Bachelor of
?ience in Law Enforcement and
directions," Kuchel said. "We are
w going to expand our offerings

As far as Kuchel knew, students

done. Failure to pass the bill would
be to tell university students that the
Legislature is not concerned, they
said. If students want to smoke pot,
let them go to Berkeley, Sen. Lester
Harsh of McCook suggested.
LB 17 to legalize 3.2 beer for 18-years-olds
will have two groups of
legal-age students lobbying for the bill
on Monday.
CARPENTER, who introduced the
bill, has decided to pull the bill out
of committee, a move which would
require 25 affirmative votes from the
49-member body.
The bill was killed by the
Miscellaneous Subjects Committee
after a public hearing in which only
one witness appeared to oppose the
bill.
Last Wednesday the Student
Veteran's Organization composed of
about 45 members who are all 21 or
over passed a resolution supporting
reintroduction of LB 17 by the com
mitteee. Earlier in the Week, Wallace
Weld, a 29-year-old University stu
dent, led a group in a petition drive
supporting the bill's reintroduction.
Weld planned to submit the petition
to Sen. Carpenter. He said he wanted
to get the bill on the floor, but added
that it would probably fail there as
it had already done in committee.
Student power
continued from page 1
"Right extremists will react to
jeopardize students' future," McGee
said. "They want to turn back the
clock when we can ill afford to do
so."
McGee also noted an attempt to
revive "Joe McCarthyism," in an at
tempt to place the blame for disorder
on a specific group Communists.
THE SENATOR warned against
taking either extreme in the educa
tional conflict, that such action would
"snuff out the atmosphere you seek
to promote."
New Leftist Jeremy Lamer
criticized McGee for "coming here
to say that students are all won
derful. "The majority of students are
passive, apathetic and abysmally ig
norant," he said.
"The intellectual life of the Lest
professors is irrelevant to the majori
ty," Larner said.
"As a result of exposure to it, the
average college student becomes anti
intellectual or insecure."
Larner strongly defended student
activism, however. Like Douglas, he
criticized the federal government, the
Democratic Party and the U.S.
business community. He said that
students can have real power in com
bating social wrongs.
Larner urged students to work to .
"turn the university inside out" in .
order to make classes more rele
vant. ......
Larner related his own experience
in attempting to interest students in
his English course at Stonybrooke.
"The relevant question for study is
'what do students want of the
teacher."
"A class has to learn to trust
everyone within it," he said. "That'i
what student power la all about."
in Omaha because of interest from
the Omaha Police Department. As the
program developed we found that a
large number of undergraduates were
getting involved because they see law
enforcement as a good career,"
Kuchel said. He feels that the same
will happen in Lincoln.
"We intend to utilize the law faculty
in courses on criminal law and other
faculty members for specialized
courses," he said. Omaha faculty
members will also come to Lincoln
from Omaha to teach.

'talk' sections
Discussion groups for the new in
terdisciplinary "Negro in the
American Society" course are now
being held in fraternity houses, a
sorority and campus chapels.
"There are six different groups
which have been organized by
students with my approval," said Dr.
Phillip Crowl, who teaches the history
portion of the course. "I am going
to encourage all staff members in
the course to attend the meetings."
THE GROUPS meet at the Lutheran
Chape'., the UHME Chapel, Phi Gam
ma Delta and Beta Theta Pi
fraternities, and Kappa Kappa Gam
ma sorority.
This - format will probably b e
changed soon, however, according to
Mike Carroll, one of the students
responsible for organizing the
groups.
"There probably aren't more than
30 people involved in all six groups,"
he said Thursday. "With so few people
in tS'ih group we defeat our purpose
of seeking diversity of opinions."
Carroll added that the six groups
will probably be consolidated into one
or two groups.
"THIS WAY we can possibly get
staff teachers to attend the
discussions too," he continued.
According to Carroll, the groups
were organized to compensate for the
absence of discussion in the regular
lecture course.
The course is listed under the
English, history and sociology
departments and is taught for nve
week periods by professors from each
of those departments. There are ap
proximately 350 students in the
course.
"All history and sociology courses
have quiz sections, and English
classes are small enough to allow for
discussion," Carroll said. "Staffing
problems make it impossible with this
course, so we are doing it outside
the class."

Student parking at fairgrounds
slated for fall; bussing to campus
As early as next fall students may
be parking" at the State Fairgrounds
and be bussed to the downtown cam
pus, according to Carl A. Donaldson,
Donaldson said Thursday that many
University business manager,
details are still left to be worked out,
but "it was felt that a shuttle system
was needed by 1970, and we feel like
trying it next fall."
Parking ramps have been discussed
as a solution to alleviate the parking
situation, he said, but the matter boils
down to the high cost of ramps.
A STANDARD parking ramp such
as Ram-Park, located downtown con
sisting of 350 stalls, would cost about
2,100 per stall to construct,
Donaldson said.
This would amount to a cost of $1
per day parking for the student, which
Donaldson said would be more than
the average student is willing to
pay.
"We would like to work out a
reasonable fare for the shuttle
system," Donaldson said.
HE INDICATED that there has been
no decision as to whether the bussing
cost would be absorbed by the price
of a special sticker, or whether a
punch card system similar to the one
between the downtown and east cam
puses will be used.
Michigan State, Donaldson said, is
talking of charging students from $75
to $90 a year for similar arrangements
including the bussing costs.
"The shuttle," Donaldson said, "is
probably the answer to the parking
problem."
He said that in the total University
plan parking lots will be moved to
the outskirts of the campus and
buildings will be concentrated in the
center.
"YOU CAN MAKE parking lots,"
Donaldson said, "but at what point
do they become too far removed?"
He said that at the University of
Nebraska at Omaha, where nearly all
students are commuters, "it is

surprising how xnanv kids nark one
half mile away rather than put money

Because of the high cost associated
with the use of parking ramp ar
rangements, Donaldson said the shut
tle service from outlying lots would
be a better answer.
He said that it is cheaper to buy
land and make lots than constructing
ramps.
DONALDSON SAID that the monies
being acquired with the $10 parking
sticker and next fall's $15 parking
sticker will be used to buy additional
Medical school exams

He said that as lots become
permanently located they will be
black-topped.
The parking may become very
scarce next fall, he said, because of
the planned removal of the big lot
Just south of Nebraska Hall.
This area, he said, will be the site
of a new engineering building with
construction beginning in the near
future.
CAPT. EUGENE MASTERS of the
University Police said "you can't get
more cars every year on campus and
less parking all the time. It can't
work out."
Masters said that something has to
be worked out, especially wittt the
impending renoval of the big lot south
of Nebraska Hall.
The shuttle system, he said, might
be an answer.

"WHEN THEY say we don't have
room to park, this is not true,"
Masters said. "We have room, but
not very close to campus."
Donaldson said that many students

really getting in student parking. He
said that the $10 to $15 per year cost
