State YD's declare Batch a 'nuisance' The Nebraska Young Democrats were unable to agree on which gubernatorial candidate to endorse at the state convention recently, but they unanimously declared State Sen. Clifton Batchelder "a public nuisance." The YDs said that Batchelder, who is opposing incumbent Republican Norbert T. Tiemann in the May 13 primary, meets the statutory requirement to be a public nuisance and that he is "a danger to public health, welfare and morals." Other agreement was found as the YDs deckled to unanimously support the candidacy of Wallace Peterson for U.S. Senate. The pre-primary endorsement session was marked with some controversy when the rules committee recommended the press be barred from the proceedings. One reporter protested and University of Nebraska YD vice president Mick Moriarty challenged the ruling. "We should work in every way possible to escape the legacies of the Chicago convention," Moriarty said. The recommendation to exclude the press was defeated. University of Nebraska YDs were also active In introduc ing resolutions. One called for the legalization of abortion in Nebraska. Another resolution called for the Unicameral to join Massachusetts in challenging the constitutionality of the Vietnam War. Tiemann has said he would oppose such an anti-Vietnam bill. University YD's also introduced resolutions calling for the halt to further development of nuclear power cities in Nebraska and urging sterilization of parents with more than two children. No action was taken on the resolutions. The 100 delegates to the convention re-elected H. Joseph Fanner of Omaha as state president. He defeated Mike Jacobs of the University of Nebraska. ft .

Uk.-hla.a nnlml imih uu and tutw4 Creighton visitation works by CAROL ANDERSON fttebrttkaa Stan Writav The new limited coed visita tion policy at Omaha's Creighton University is work ing out well, although students are generally disappointed about some of the regulations, according to Bob Hobbies, outgoing Creighton student body president. "It was pretty well un derstood (by the administra tion) that we accept the new policy for the time being and that action will be taken next year to expand it," Bobbins said. Each dorm voted on whether or not to participate in the new policy which was formulated by a committee of three students and two administrators. Those disagreeing with the majority of students in their dorms could switch halls. The new policy allows visiting hours on Fridays and Saturdays from 7-11:30 p.m. and from 1-6 p.m. on Sundays with specific rules. Rooms must be unlocked and subject to inspection when guests are present, and the host student is responsible for the conduct of his guests. The adrninistration in March cancelled a more liberal visitation program that had been in effect for three weekends. That policy was nixed because of outside pressure from shocked alumni donors who "didn't understand it," Hobbins said. The rescinded visitation policy included visiting in the dorms on Friday and Saturday evenings from 4 p.m. to 1 a.m. and on Sunday af .crrtoons. To protest visitation can cellation students turned on dorm water facets trying to run up a high water bill. One dorm floor, a lounge, part of the ad jacent bookstore and game room were flooded accidentally when water backed up in the plumbing system. No disciplinary action has been taken against students who protested the administra tion's stop action. "There were no grounds," said Hobbins, who called Omaha press reports of water damage to dorms exag gerated. Hobbins said the $50475 damage sustained was acs cidentally caused when the sewer failed. Student govern ment has offered to pay the bill. Creijihton's acting president the Rev. J. Schneider said security problems was the reason for stopping the first experiment and denied that pressure from alumni caused the cancellation. Hobbins said security was not the reason. "People were searching for reasons that weren't there," be added. Bronson elected head of Tlieta Xi Theta XI has elected Bill Bronson as president tor the year.
