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

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.

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

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

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.

Concluding
by Susie Jenkins
Nebraskan Staff Writer
The last in Charlie Armstrong's
Cabaret series promises to be far
from the least of his Sunday night
happenings, according to the show's
producer-director-manager.
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 said. "It's an amateur
production that can't be compared
to professional efforts."
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.
