Minority scholarship Cadets invade Saturday
J Rv .iim JOHNSTON day than it has been yet tl
fund drive goes on
Faculty members, ad
ministration officials and
students are making progress
toward providing money for
low-income and minority stu
dent education.
The University last summer
received a $100,000 federal
grant for counseling, tutoring
and special programs for
black, Indian, Mexican
American and low-income
whites.
The College Opportunity
Fund, headed by Dean of Stu
dent Development Russ Brown,
was created this summer to try
to raise money by donations for
these college expenses.
Money has also been donated
by private citizens and
organizations. Herb M. Potter,
secretary lor the University of
Nebraska Fo undation,
estimated that "a little more
than $27,000 has been given or
pledged over the next twelve
months".
Attempts at obtaining con
tribution from University
students have met with little
success. ASUN senators Roy
Baldwin and Beverly
Goodenberger collected about
$180 during two weeks of the
last summer session but, ac
cording to Baldwin, they were
hampered by a lack of time
and only contacted a few
students.
Baldwin pointed out that
minority and low income
students need more outright
grants than others because
they cannot put up collatoral
for loans. In addition, depen
ding entirely on work for
money often does not leave
enough study time for the low
income student.
Both Brown and Baldwin
agreed that a more systematic
method of fund raid raising is
needed because the students
and administration need to
know how much money will be
available in the future. As
Brown put it, "We want to help
this year's successful student
next year."
In order to find a way of ob
taining this long-range source
of funds a five-member ad hoc
committee under the leadership
of ASUN senator Steve Fowler
fs investigating the possibility
of using student fees for low
income student scholarships.
According to Fowler his com
mittee should have a report
ready in about a month.

Service teams have a way of
getting up for big
games . . . and the Army
Cadets won't be an exception at
Memorial Stadium Saturday.
"They've got a lot of pride
and they're gonna play good
ball," said Nebraska football
coach Bob Devaney. "They're
dedicated and that's why they
play better against the better
teams."
Devaney, talking to sports
writers after Tuesday's two
hour workout, didn't nwd
reminding about the 1963
season when Air Force visited
the NU campus.
Nebraska enjoyed a 10-1
record that year and won the
Orange Bowl, their only loss
being a 17-13 setback to Air
Force.

year.
"(Van) Brownson hasn't
thrown long yet," said
Devaney, "and (Jerry Tagge
hasn't tried running at full
speed this week, but we'll play
both of them Saturday."
Brownson, who received aa
elbow injury during pre-season
drills, hasn't seen game action
yet this year. His return should
give the Huskers one of the
best 1-2 punches at quarterback
in the nation.
"AH of our injuries are com
ing along pretty good," said
Devaney. "The only shadow of
doubt is Ingles."
If Ingles, injured in the USC
game, doesn't start, the
Huskers will go with Woody
Cox at split end.
