PAGE 4 THE DAILY NEBRASKAN THURSDAY, MARCH 27, 1969 Shepard fields in by Mark Gordon Sports Editor Who is the last person in the atletic department to leave at night and the first to arrive in the morning? It's probably Bill Shepard. who as grounds director, is responsible for maintaining 12 acres of athletic fields as well as the Memorial Stadium in door track, field'house, baseball area and the outdoor track. He also has Editor's note this is the last of a six-part series on NU athletic depart ment officials. assorted tasks ranging from cleaning up the stadium after football games to putting up and taking down the bleachers at the Coliseum for basket ball games. "The spring is the busiest time of the year for me," he said, "since baseball, track and football aU want to be outside at the same time, and they want their own field to be in perfect condition. TO MAINTAIN THE BASEBALL field, six football fields and the other athletic grounds he supervises, Shepard estimates that annually he uses, between 400 and 500 pounds of blue and rye grass, four tons of fertilizers and about 200 gallons of field marking paint. This summer, Shepard and his two assistants will paint all the permanent seats in the Coliseum and refinish the seats in Memorial Stadium's north and south sections. This summer, the department will employ 20 persons to help with the painting. Usually eight employes are hired in the summer. Although he terms the fall football season the easiest time, Shepard said it is his duty to have the tackling and blocking dummies and other equipment at the practice fields and to store them each night after workouts. He added he also opens and locks up the gates for many athletic contests. "Now we must drag and maintain the track and baseball Infield daily," he said. "We also have to get the football fields ready for spring football which starts April 13." FOR MOWING AND GROUND upkeep, Shepard has two tractors, five grass mowers and an electric truck for ftauling purposes. But sometimes he needs items that are not standard equipment items.

"This clay stands up better and after three days' of looking, the city was kind enough to give us some from a Vine Street sewer pro ject." While Shepard said he has the headaches of any job, he felt that Bill Shepard running persons off the athletic fields is the toughest part of his job. Since "I don't like to get nasty." A 20-year employe with the University who began in the dairy department at east campus, Shepard served three years as an assistant to veteran groundskeeper Walt Renter. He then assumed his present capacity eight years ago, when Renter, a 30-year groundskeeper, retired. "This job has been a lot. of fun," he said, adding that learning to play handball and paddleball and going to five football games in five consecutive years ranks as the greatest thrills he has had from his association with the athletic staff. Students to Continued from page 1 constitution made by the convention are listed in the order in which they appear in the constitution. , Preamble The clause acknowledging that the constitution and ASUN is ordained and established with the consent of the Board of Regents was deleted. ARTICLE II. Purposes The part of the Article which listed the purpose of ASUN to serve as an agency to maintain a relationship between students, faculty and adminisration was deleted. It was replaced with a clause stating that ASUN should represent the best interests of the students and "strive for the largest legitimate in fluence of the students in the func tioning of the University." ARTICLE VII. Powers of Organs The second vice-president of ASUN was given the additional duty of serv ing as NSA coordinator. In the same Article the Executive committee of ASUN woud appoint the A P P delegates and the Senate would have the power to approve or disapprove of the appointments. Also in Article VII a clause was added to the rights of student recognizing that students have all those rights enumerated in the Bill of Rights and Student in t'.e Academic Community document. by the ASUN court." According to the present condition, under which the election will be con ducted, a new constitution must be ratified by "at least 30 per cent of the eligible students voting ... or by the affirmative vote of 15 per cent of the eligible voters when less than 30 per cent of the eligible students vote." In other words, if less than 30 per cent of the students vote, the number of "yes" votes necessary for passage will remain at approximately 2700. McCollister also said that filing for 1969-70 ASUN offices begins Monday. Offices are open for Student Senate, Advisory Boards, and ASUN executive positions. Applicants must register in the ASUN office and return a petition with 35 signatures to quality.

Lindsay: colleges are 'loo in flexible' (ACP) Colleges and universities may be too Inflexible and discipline oriented to respond to the pressing problems of the day, Mayor John V. Lindsay of New York told about 1,000 presidents and deans at the annual meeting of the Association of American Colleges in Pittsburgh, Pa. "Poverty, integration, defense, transportion, space exploration, economic development and deteriora tion of the cities cry out for creative, Interdisciplinary thinking," Lindsay said. "The university with its departmental structure, seems ill equipped to respond." Specifically, Lindsay proposed col leges and universities develop more programs for high-risk students. He noted a recent survey of 215 institu tions revealed almost half have no such programs at all.

Renaissance Cabaret will involve facalty and students, and Armstrong hopes to spotlight the importance of individual "life styles," a concept ex tremely import to Renaissance man. "People at the University have a life style they really dig," Armstrong said. "We'd like to have everyone who comes to this cabaret wear a depiction of his life style, something that is you." ARMSTRONG EMPHASIZED that this does not mean Cabaret will be a costume party, but rather the au dience should wear those clothes which reveal the inner self.

Armstrong may not return to the University in the fall and has been thinking about the future of Cabaret. "It anyone takes over, he must have imagination. He can't be afraid of something different, experimental," he said. " " Armstrong has many ideas for future cabarets, including an all-Black production. "We have enough talent in the African Association and the Afro American Collegiate Society to put on the show," he said. "Cabaret is a medium in itself. What they could do for education in a good solid way is unlimited. "The 'ability is available," Arm strong said.
