Remarks
by Mark Gordon
Sports Editor
Two Items appearing in the Omaha
World-Herald recently indicate a
trend which we hope never arises at
hi campus.
World-Herald sports editor Wally
Provost in his Jan. 15 column reported
that at San Jose State College, the
Student Council voted 11-2 to cut off
what remains of a $276,000 allocation
for the athletic program. The students
also ordered money from TV rights
for one fooiball game transferred to
the general fund of the Associated
Studens.
He also reported that the Associated
Students of Colorado State College
voted 34-1 to refuse to pay a student
athletic fee increase intended to
alleviate a possible deficit of $565,000
in the athletic department budget.
A RECENT Associated Press story
quoted Chancellor Wlliam P. Tolley
of Syracuse University as accusing
the media of focusing on minor
aspects of the educational scene such
as sports.
Both Provost's example and the
Chancellor's naive remarks indicate
that possibly today's colleges consider
sports nothing more than trivia which
is retained solely as a money-making
gimmick to lure the public to the
campuses each Saturday afternoon.
College athletic rograms, while
they sometimes are costly to run and
even finish in the red, are one institu
tion on campus that can and will at
tract public interest and support. We
aren't saying the main purpose of an
educational institution is to provide
an athletic program, but if one aspect
of the college can attract attention
by just doing its regular routine, it's
the athletic department.
On this campus during the fall,
' what's the most discussed topic
last week's stimulating, dynamic lec
ture by a 76-year-old grandfather in
Zoology 435 describing the en
vironmental changes undergone by
the platapuss in the physioloical age?
Or is it what happened at last week's
football game or the upcoming
Webraka contest?
EDUCATORS REFUSE to believe
that anything could be more impor
tant that the course they teach, yet

it's a known fact that the sports pages
receive greater readership than other
parts of a newspaper. A school's
athletic program can give a collge
either a wining or a losing reputation
which can attract or deter students.
The influence on Alabama football
by coach Bear Bryant has brought
a supposedly poor southern university
into one of the best known colleges
in the land. Alabama has a multitude
of problems, but its fine football
teams have definitely boosted its im
age. NITS SWIMMING team, coached by
one of the nation's finest mentors in
John Reta, recently finished fifth at
the Big Eight's swimming meet. While
this team was not in the same class
as the winning Kansas Jayhawks, we
salute them for an excellent year
which saw six new Nebraska records
set and a victory for the first time
in 25 years over Iowa State.
Those record-setters included Dave
Schmidt in the 200-yard backstroke
and 200-yard individual medley, Dave
Backer in the 200-yard freestyle,
freshman star George Sefzik (who we
feel is NU's most promising athlete)
in the 1650-yard freestyle and 500-yard
freestyle and Walt Brzezinski in the
100-yard backstroke. Brzezinski has
also qualified for the NCAA national
championships in that event March
27-29 at Bloomington, Ind.
NEBRASKA MAY have dropped a
30-3 wrestling decision to nationally
rated Iowa Statesaturday night at the
Coliseum, but the Husker matmen
showed considerable improvement
from the beginning of the season.
We wish coach Orval Borgialli and
his squad, led by heavyweight star
Gene Libal, the lone decision winner
over Iowa State, good luck in t h i s
weekend's Big Eight meet at Ames.
Iowa.
NU BASKETBALL has closed for
another season and despite faltering
in the Big Eicht title race, the Huskers
of coach Joe Cipriano deserve credit
for their efforts. No championship was
produced but this squad lacked
seniors, height and all-conference
caliber players.

amendments

pledge men who are mature enough
so that you can talk and explain things
to them as well as criticize them."
Putting the pledge against the wall
at attention where he is afraid of
what is going to happen to him is
not the answer to good pledge educa
tion, he added.
"Line-ups don't give 'the pledge a
desire to be an active." he continued,
"They give him a desire not to ba
a pledge."
Much of the objection voiced on the
clause referred not directly to the
clause but to the authority of IFC
to determine to some extent the
pledge training programs of individual
houses.
"There is too much control over
the pledge education programs by
IFC," John Russell, of Sigma Chi,
said. " An executive committee
member or pledge education com
mittee member could not understand
our pledge education program unless
they lived in the house themselves."
"I don't like a police force telling
me what to do," according to Dan
Durrie of Phi Delta Theta. "I think
IFC should just print up advisory
sheets on pledge education and
distribute them to the houses."
PLEDGE TRAINING is a kind of
inspection where the pledge is being
Inspected just like in a line-up, Gary
Raymond, representing Triangle, ad
ded. Discussion groups simply don't
yield the same results as line-ups.
"If a pledge wanted to be lined-up,
he could join the army," Bill Palmer,
Delta Tau Delta, said. "Actives should
set an example that pledges want to
follow."
In minor amendments, the council
added a clause guaranteeing eight
hours of sleep for pledges and another
defining study areas for pledges. The
duration date of the contract was
amended from each change of house
officers to stipulae from the first day
of classes for the academic year 1969
70 to the first day of classes for 1970
71. AN EVEN SHARPER disagreement
arose over whether IFC should cause
the name of any fraternity violating
the contract to be published A clause
Was added to the contract rwovirtina
that IFC could publish the names of
such houses only after a 13-12 vote.
Following the completion of the
contract amendments, Durrie moved
that the contract be rescinded in its
entirety. A motion was made to table
the proposal and an objection to con
sideration was voiced, but both mo
tions failed.
Durrie's proposal was then voted
on. It failed 19-6.

Officials raise possibility
of U.S. campus conspiracy
by John Nollendorfs
Nebraskan Staff Writer
The possibility that the nationwide
campus disorders are being instigated
by an interstate conspiracy was raised
ait a recent meeting of governors'
representatives and U.S. Justice Dept.
officials In Washington, D.C.
Attending the meeting was Robert
E. Barnett, special counsel to Giv.
Norbert T. Tiemann, who said that
a number of questions were raised
abauft the campus disorders across the
nation.
He said several representatives
were pushing for a Federal Grand
Jury investigation on these incidents
"because they thought there were
overtones of an interstate con
spiracy." "Many of the representatives,
especially from California and
Wisconsin, were quite adamant about
the obvious interstate aspects of it."
Barnett said.
U.S. Deputy Attorney General
Richard Kliendiest, Barnett reported,
said that the Nixon administration
was looking into the matter, trying
to gather the data for a grand jury
case.
Barnett said that the feeling he got
from Kliendiest was that the ad
ministration was being as sincere as
it could be, "and they were not going
to run just willy-nilly into a grand
jury investigation to get publicity."
THE JUSTICE Dept. officials, he
said, reported that they had run into
some jurisdictional problems because
they were not sure of the interstate
aspects of the campus riots. He said
that the department could not go on
rumor, as they have to gather the
facts."
After the facts are gathered and

if a violation of the law was founded,
a feder grand lury investigation
could be held, he said.
The main discussions at the four
hour meeting centered ground the
implementing of the crime control
bill, Barnett said.
The administration wanted to ex-
plain its ideas in idfferent areas, what
its plans were, and how its ideas differ
form the previous administra
tion. "KLIENDIEST MADE it quite
clear," Barnett said, "that the Nixon
administration firmly believes that
the civil rights issue is a local pro
blem, and that we should handle these
civil rights problems at a local level.
If they aren't handled there, the Nixon
administration is going to handle them
whether we like these laws or not."
