Council candidates are hopeful
If the three student city
council candidates have
guessed correctly, at least one
student should be on the
winning side of Tuesday's
primary election.
It's been difficult to get
feedback from residents, the
three candidates said, but
public opinion has been
generally favorable.
William F. Bennett, 20, the
first of 18 candidates to file,
said "I'm quite sure that I will
make it through the primary".
In the primary, voters will
chose eight candidates to run
in the May general election.
When John S. Breslow, 21,
filed there were only six other
candidates. Tm still optimistic
that I'll win in the primary,"
he said.
William M. Hermes, 20, the
last student to file, said he
believes his chances are equal
with most candidates, and all
three students have an equal
chance to win in the primary.
THE THREE STUDENTS
have appeared on a program
sponsored by the League of
Women Voters and at a meeting
of the Havelock Businessmen's
Association.
Hermes and Breslow spoke
at a Chamber of Commerce
meeting Wednesday. Breslow
and Bennett have appeared
before the Home and
Neighborhood Development
Committee and the Lincoln
Central Labor Union.
Bennett, "getting more and
more confident every day,"
said he has received the
endorsement of the labor
union's Committee on Political
Education (COPE). COPE
represents about 7,500 union
families in Lincoln.
In addition to speeches, his
campaign has included news
releases, newspaper ads, yard
signs and coffees, Bennett said.
Bennett said he wasn't
asked to speak to any groups
on campus and received little
help from "typically
apathetic" students. Campaign

ASUN back to students.
During the question and answer period Fowler, the ASUN
senator in charge of PACE, came under fire for not putting the
PACE issue on a referendum ballot instead of the petition
drive.
"if the PACE committee had really been committed," said
Schleiger, "they could have generated student interest in a
referendum. As it was, the only way students could protest
against PACE was by not signing the petition."
Fowler said the petiton method was used in order to reach
more students. He added there was no assurance the Regents
would follow a referendum anyway."
He said he was deeply committed to PACE, and had spent
much time and some of his own money in the effort to get it
accepted.
Kincaid said he favored the deductable PACE plan rather
than the refundable plan, because the deductable plan would
funds have fallen about SO per
cent short of his needs, he
said.
Judging from public
reaction, Bennett said, "'I've
proven myself" to residents
and have shown "that I'm not
merely a young candidate but a
mature young candidate",
BEING LABELED as a
student hasn't hurt his
campaign, Bennett said. "If
you have something to say,
you don't need to worry about
your label".
Breslow has taken his
campaign door-to-door. He's
spent about three hours a -day
meeting with the public on an
individual basis, Breslow said.
Often he walks up and
down O Street handing out
"Breslow-A Man for Lincoln
Tod ay "cards to people, he said.
Breslow has also put up several
4-by-6-foot signs.
Contributions, some from
businessmen, have allowed him
to raise about $500 for the
primary campaign, Breslow
said.
"I'M TRYING to hustle
more than the other
candidates," Breslow said.
"I've attended every meeting

for city council candidates."
However, most of the other
candidates have enough money
so they can saturate the public
with their names, he said.
Hermes has received help in
the form of time and materials
from students in Unicorns, a
campus organization. Involved
in the Unicorn Big Brother
program, Hermes said he has
received some contributions
from people who know his
Little Brother.
Supporters have also placed
ads for him in the classified
section of the newspaper and
yard signs are being set up.
Hermes said.
The various speaking
engagements have helped his
campaign a lot, he said, and
there have been "no problems
so far. People are favorable to a
young person because he has
time and energy."

"bring more net money into the fund" through lower
administrative costs.
Apthorpe criticized ASUN for spending $500 on a zerox
machine when there was "'hardly a pencil sharpener to be
found" around campus.
As far as restructuring the decision-making processes of the
University, Kincaid advocated an all-University senate to
combine the interests of students, faculty, administration.and
staff.
He said the new body should '"start the job of codifying our
currently abritrary decision-making process."
Schleiger recommended a similar "University governance
system" where problems would go before Teaching the Regents.
Fowler favored the Princeton plan, which would involve an
all-University council where students and faculty could work
out common problems, but would keep the faculty and
student separate when it came to handling problems involving
only the faculty or the students.
Voegler said the best way for students to restructure the
University in order to have more say in decisions would be to
make ASUN effective enough on its own "not to be written
off by the Regents."
He said it was "easy for the Regents to write off ASUN
when only 1 4 per cent of the students vote."
