Marijuana penalty lowered
for first offense charge
Problem of reapportionmeM
The Nebraska Legislature has given
unanimous approval to a bill lowering
the penalty for a first offense on a
charge of possession of marijuana
from a felony to a misdemeanor.
Governor Norbert Tiemann has
since signed LB2 into law, and three
Nebraska Wesleyan University
students have already been arraigned
in Lancaster County Court on the
lessened charge.
The law distinguishes between
possessors and sellers of marijuana
but provides that an amount of more
than 25 cigarets or more than half,
a pound merits a felony charge.
Second or subsequent charges of
possession of marijuana are also
felony offenses.
.
SEN. TERRY CARPENTER, who
co-sponsored LB2 with Sen. Henry
Pedersen, explained his logic behind
the bill. He said that the old law
was simply not being enforced
because county attorneys and district
courts thought the penalty too
severe.
"Something has to be done to keep
people from smoking that stuff," he
commented. "Kids just don't have the
right to accept one law to obey and
reject the rest." Carpenter also de
nounced those University professors
who would repeal drug laws and thus
add to the excessive permissiveness
in American society.
Lincoln Police Chief Joseph Carroll
said that many law enforcement of
iicers thought the old law was too
severe regarding the first offense.
"We feel that in some instances it
is certainly not the intention of the
individual to partake in illegal acts.
At a party somone may go along with
smoking marijuana as a lark without
realizing that the seriousness might
result in a peoitntiary sentence,
Carroll said. "A misdemeanor charge
might be adequate to bring these in
dividuals to their senses."
Carroll said that there was a problem-
in enforcing the law as a
lormerly read because "if we followed
the letter of the law, the result would
Hive a convicted individual a record
which places
for life."
upon him a handicap
HE OBSERVED that the objective
of such legislation was to influence
people to see the dangers in using
marijuana and other injurious drugs.
"We have no intentions of trying to
blemish an individual's future record
with felony convictions," Carrol
said.
The gap between the first charge
of a misdemeanor and the second
charge of a felony is just, according
to Carroll, because a second offense
would give every indication that they
have disregarded the principles on
which the lesser first charge penalty
is based.
"It would Indicate, in our
terminology, that these persons are
'hooked', and more drastic steps
would be required," he explained.

The joining of two traditional
University entertainment events is in
. the oflfing for next year, according
to members of Kosmet Klub and AWS.
The Kosmet Klub Fall Show and
AWS Coed Follies, male and female
skit presentations, are under con
sideration for merger, under Kosmet
Klub, according to Walt Wood,
Kosmet Klub fall show chairman.
"Merger of the shows could create
more interest," Wood said. "More
living units would want to try out
if the production was co-educational."
Wood said that questionnaires
regarding the merger have been sent
to living units to gauge the reaction
of participants in the programs. The
questionnaires will be validated by
Electoral Commissioner John
McCollister, also Kosmet Klub spring
show chairman.
"There was no special reason we
considered taking on a coed produc
tion," Wood said. "It wouldn't be of
particular financial benefit, since we
have always had a full house.
"With men and women participating
in the same skits, the singing and
dancing would be better," he said.
Jan McGill, AWS Board member
and 1969 Coed Follies chairman, said
year
she thought that a merger of the
shows would create more interest in
that type of entertainment.
"As we see audiences declining and
becoming more sophisticated, we
seem to see a greater lack of interest
in this area, while cost and time in
volved increase," she said.
She noted that with the imminent
changes being discussed for AWS,
putting women's skits under the care
of Kosmet Klub would insure at least
a co-ed show.
"Since it seems to be the trend
to phase out AWS, and the financial
gains from the show won't be needed
by the organization, Kosmet Klub will
have the best facilities to provide for
the show," she said.
The decision to merge will be made
later this spring, Wood said. The 1969
Kosmet Klub show is now scheduled
for November 1, at which time, if
accepted, women's living units would
also participate in the skit3.

The proposed amendments in reap
portionment remain substantially the
same as those proposed by the con
stitutional convention.
ASUN SENATE would consist of no
more than 38 senators elected from
districts, advisory boards, off-campus,
and at large constituencies.
The at-large constituency of all
University students would elect eight
senators. One senator would be
elected from each of the five un
dergraduate college alvisory boards
by the members of the board. Three
senators would be elected to represent
the three professional colleges.
The representative of the College
of Dentistry would be chosen by the
college's advisory board. The senators
from the Colleges of Law and
Pharmacy would be elected from the
entire college.
GREEKS would select one senator
for every 750 members of the Greek
system. In a change from earlier
proposals, all Greeks, regardless of
their place of residence, would vote
In the Greek constitutency.
Residence halls would elect one
senator for every 750 students and
are grouped into the following
districts: Abel-Sandoz district, two
sen ators ; Harper-Schramm-Smith
distriat, two Senators; Cather-Pound-Women's
Residence district, two
senators; Selleck Quadrangle district,
one senator; Burr-Fedde-Married
Students Housing district, one
senator.
The combination of Furr-Fedde
halls and the married students com
plex is another departure from pro
posals made by the constitutional
convention.
"DURING THE constitutional coa-

vention, Burr-Fedde indicated that the
they did not want to be placed in a dis
trict with the co-ops," Cochrane said.
"The co-ops, therefore, have been
placed in the off -campus constit
uency." The off-campus non-affiliated
students would elect one senator for
every 2,000 students. This is a change
from the 1,500 suggested by the con
vention. "In altering the number of off-campus
students per district, we looked
at the voting record of off-campus
students," Cochrane added, "and also
that those students who move off
campus have expressed a dissatisfac
tion with the dormitories, Greeks, or
University on the whole."
THE PROPOSED amendments also
provide for two faculty represen
tatives to ASUN Senate who will be
appointed for staggered two-year
terms.
Cochrane's proposed amendments
also include the method by which
delegates to the NSA Convention and
i
NSA coordinator shall be select- t
