f.. UNL student leaves for Bangladesh study tour A UNL junior has been selected to participate in a 10-day study tour of Bangladesh. Kathryn Luhe, an English major, will leave Lincoln Thursday for New York City where she will join 75 other college students for the tour. The purpose of the tour is to give students an opportunity to gain an understanding of the conditions in Bangladesh and to encourage people on college campuses and in local communities to make donations to help people in that nation. The program is sponsored by the Emergency Relief Fund Inc. of Lansing, Mich., with support of student, church and civic groups in the Lincoln area. Luhe was chairman of the "Fast to Save the People" of East Pakistan last fall. The trip was originally to be financed by the Indian government but Prime Minister Indira Ghandi recently backed out of the venture. Starpow M er 1 1 1 ustrates frustrations of poverty It was "Starpower" time Friday at the UNL Conference on Poverty time for students to experience what it's like to be poor. About 40 students and members of the community played a game illustrating that people take unfair advantage of others when the system places an emphasis on winning. Everyone scrambled and bargained for gold and blue poker chips that meant success, until it became apparent that the game was rigged. From the beginning the chips were stacked in favor of one group, and they kept the wealth from drifting down to the frustrated majority. Because they had the wealth, they could make the rules. And like the poor in society, the poor in the game organized to petition the minority to redistribute its wealth and, if that failed, could refuse to play by the rules. The object of the game was "to understand the frustration, . despair and hopelessness of the poor in a situation where the chips are stacked against them, " said Donald Bredthauer, minister at First United Methodist and conference discussion leader.

Figures released last week included recommendations that $1.4 million be appropriated for a new home economics building and $3.3 million be allocated for an addition to Love Memorial Library. A total of $4.9 million in construction funds for UNL was recommended by the fiscal staff. University officials had requested nearly $8.4 million for the 1972-73 fiscal year. The original University request included nearly $3 million for the construction of a new Ag shows urban student increase A survey recently completed by the UNL College of Agriculture reveals that the number of students with urban backgrounds enrolled in the college is steadily increasing. 'The study group breakdown indicates the percentage of rural-origin students is decreasing and the percentage of urban-origin students is increasing from the senior to the freshman class," said Vaughn Domeier, counselor of resident instruction. Urban students compose 35 per cent of the freshman class this year, compared with 13 per cent in the senior class, according to Domeier, who conducted the survey. The trend among most urban students is to major in fields dealing with natural resources or animal medicine rather than farming, he said. Dome! er said he thinks most urban students are majoring in an area offered by ag college in order to escape from crowded urban living. PnllerM of Law build inq. The only other UNL construction project recommended by the staff was $190,000 for remodeling of Ferguson Hall. All staff recommendations could be amended by the Appropriations Committee which will begin considering the staff report at a meeting scheduled for Monday noon. The Legislature as a whole could alter the capitol construction recommendations that come from the budget committee. The UNO campus would receive $3.5 million in construction funds; down from their $5.3 million request. Most of the money would be spent on a classroom-office building.
