First there was PACE.
Then came STOPACE.
Now a third idea, a com
promise proposal for providing
scholarships lor needy
University of Nebraska
students, has emerged.
"I think It's a good idea that
something caa be done for
needy students," Yen a g
Republican National Com
mitteeman Dong Voegler said,
"but I don't think it should be
mandatory."
The alternative to PACE,
(Program of Active Commit
ment to Education), which
Voegler said has been sug
gested in the past, calls for a
space to be provided on the
registration form allowing
students to voluntarily and
confidentially add the $3.50 fee
to their tuition bill. The fund is
to be distributed under the
established guidelines of the
Office of Scholarships and ,
Financial Aids.
"We are hearing on campus
that we must sign either the
PACE or the STOPACE peti
tion, which gives the im
pression that there is no com
mon ground between the two.
The positions of some also tend
to oversimplify the matter into
two extremes either being
for brotherhood and helping
your fellow man or not. Both of
these impressions are
wrong.
"For the person who cannot
siga the PACE proposal,
because evea though he ag-
grees w ;he PACE concept
he finds the proposed
machinery sketchy and
changeable; and for the person
who canuot sign the STOP
PACE proposal without feeling
that he is somehow forsaking
his duty to better society I be
lieve this compromise between
students contribute, over
$30,000 a year could be raised),
5( time, effort and money will
be saved because the
established machinery of the
administration will be used.
PACE chairman Steve
Fowler said the Voegler
alternative of $30,000, Instead of
Proposal offers
voluntary funding
the two will mnke all parties
Involved happy and still be ibe
moral and Just thing to do."
According to Voegler the
PACE-STOP ACE conflict
hinges on two issues: first,- how
the funds are to be distributed,
and second, whether contribu
tions are voluntary or man
datory. Voegler lists five advantages
he believes his alternative of
fers: 1( students will have a
definite time and method to
decide, 2( the action is volun
tary, 3( the money will be
available to the Office of
Scholarships and Financial
Aids soon enough to be ef
fective before the semester
begins, 4( the popularity of
PACE insures substantial con
tributions (Vo;gler estimates
that if 20 per cent of the
PACE'S $135,000, Is "inade
quate for the need." He said
there are already too many
registration forms to fill out,
and the addition easily could be
lost or Ignored. He added that
freshmen from out of town,
registering for the first time,
would be inadequately Inform
ed of the Issue.
"Voegler's plan, by adding
an extra form to registration,
will take more time and effort
than PACE.
Bill Arfmann, AS UN Human
Rights Committee chairman,
said the alternative proposal is
not nearly as effective an
argument for financial help
from outside sources as PACE.
"If the student body shows
widespread support for
PACE," he said, "then this is
much more effective man a
charity donation.
Tom Cardwell, an organizer
of STOPACE, said he backs
Voegler's idea, although be
views it as an alternative to
PACE, not a compromise
between PACE and STOPACE.
"I think Voegler's proposal is a
good one. It takes care of both
parts of the argument against
PACE. Our petitions are only to
stop the involuntary part of the
PACE proposal, and it's still
valid to sign the STOPACE
petition.
"I find the statement that
Voegler's alternative is 'inade
quate' very strange. Voegler's
plan will raise money if PACE
has the supporters Fowler
thinks it has. What PACE
is saying, then, is that they can
get more money by coercion of
students than they can get by
voluntary contributions."
Bloodmobile to
arrive on campus
The annual Red Cross
Bloodmobile will be on campus
Tuesday, according to Red
Cross publicity chairman Sue
Wood.
The goal of the program is
200 pints of blood. Students in
terested in giving blood can
sign up through their living unit
health aides.
The Bloodmobile will be at
the Nebraska Union from 10
a.m. to 4 p.m., she said.

it downtown"
Merchandise, ranging in

$15, will include wood carvings,
ponchos, rugs, beaded
materials and a selection of
jewelry. This year "struggling
groups" such as het American

Whittier Junior High tutors.
Head Start volunteers, Y-Teen
advisers and Big Sisters to
girls who are on probation from

YWCA is aiming the bazaar
at Universty students. Kokesh

ling things of Interest to

range."
