    Voter reoistrotion results in McGovern mix-up
. . . oi j n,a future tn Hisne.rse information. director b
by H. J. Cummins
The campus-wide voter
registration drive produced a
few innocent mistakes
Thursday.
Mary Kris Jensen, a member
of the Nebraska Students for
McGovern, said she sent a
number of McGovern workers
to put three-page "Student
Voting Information" sheets in
all dormitory mailboxes. Two
pages contained voter
registration information, the
other had McGovern campaign
literature.
"I TOLD THEM they had
to ask the Residence Director
before they put them in," she
said, although she did not
know about the housing policy
which says any persuasive
information put in dormitory
mailboxes must be
accompanied with equal
representation from the other
side.
Sandoz Hall residence
director Susan Goldsborough
said the partisan information
was put in Sandoz mailboxes
"through ignorance on my
part."
She said she talked to
somebody over the phone and
was told it was "voter
registration information" and
she did not know there was
information on any particular
candidate.
"I DID NOT see the
material until two days after it
was in the mailboxes," she
added.
Dorey Busch, Smith Hall
residence director said it "was
my understanding they were
given permission."
When asked who gave her
that idea, she said . it was a
college co-ed (who she declined
to name) who works at the
Smith Hall main desk and is a
McGovern worker
Pound Hall residents
received the information sheets
without the residence
director's approval also,
Caroline Seward, the dorm's
RD.
SHE SAID she'd gotten
voter registration information
from the League of Young
Voters and left instructions at
the desk to have it put in all
Pound Hall mailboxes.
The McGovern information
was also left at the desk and
passed out with the
non-partisan material, but she
said she had no idea who left
it.
Abel Hall resident directors
Glenn Schumann and Greg
Snodgrass said the information
was approved for their dorm,
despite the housing regulation,
because they felt the need for
voter registration information
in the dorms overshadowed the
page of McGovern material.
THE DECISION to allow
the distribution was not made
by the residence directors but
one of the graduate assistants,
he said.
"It was a mistake,"
Schumann said, "and we have
taken precautions not to let it
happen again."
He said that booths, pick-up
type information, and invited
speakers will be allowed in the
future to disDerse information.
Milton Woody, Harper Hall
residence director and Andy
Miller, Cather Hall residence
director both said they had not
given their approval to putting
the information in the
mailboxes.

"-kir-kiCk Truly a re
markable film! It is a
gruesome, harrowing
tale. It comes close to
being the most devas
tating anti-war film

being and because we
are allowed to know
him as such, his story
rips us apart. It would
be impossible not to be
touched by it. The act
ing is extraordinary.
