Projects to be supported this year are

Numerous other Democratic
delegates filed Thursday
pledged to other candidates
but not in such significant
numbers.
Edward Kennedy picked up
one delegate from the third
district despite Sec. of State
Allen Bearmann's statement
that he would abide by
Kennedy's statement of
rn-candidacy and not place
his name on the alt-star
presidential primary baikit.
Nebraska Gov. JJ. Exon
filed as sn uncommitted
Democratic delegate pledging
himself to support the winner
of the Nebraska Democratic
primary.
The governor said he
realized that filing uncommited
posed some problems for
election since the electorate
has historically cast votes for
delegates pledged to their
favorite candidate rather than
to those delegates running
uncommitted.
The important thing is to
unify all Democrats behind our
eventual nominee at the
convention," Exon said.

for vocational education at the penal complex as another
example of the Legislature's concern for penal reform.
Ford suggested the place penal reform should begin is with
the economically and socially disadvantaged.
Society needs to recognize "that the way the system is set
up, some people are always placed at a disadvantage," Ford
said. 'The system needs to be changed to give all people equal
opportunities to advance, educationally and economically."
Lee Jett, director of the Federal Youth Center at
Englewood, Colo., also stressed the need for community
involvement in penal reform.
The public must quit trying to pretend that penitentiaries
are alien to their way of life, he said. For example, the youth
center at Englewood is adjacent to a new residential
subdivision, it is left off of maps developers have of the area. '
Jett also said that one thing always to be remembered
about penal reform, is that no matter how comfortable an
institution can be, when men lose their freedom, it's no fun.
Looking for viable alternatives to incarceration is the
direction penal reform should be heading, he said.
Department plans new course
The mathematics department has announced plans for an
introductory course, "Calculus for Managerial and Social
Sciences," for the fall semester.
The course, which will be listed as mathematics 198, is
designed to serve non-majors, who will need a working
knowledge of mathematics.
Math teacher Max Larson said the department decided to
offer the course bee-use students "were clamoring for it." It
will be geared toward a managerial and social science
application of mathematics.
It is the first of a two-semester sequence, the second of
which will deal with linear algebra.
Journalism school issues newspaper
A fledgling publication under the flag Nebraska Reporter is
scheduled to make its initial appearance Friday. The
newspaper is a lab project of the UNL School of Journalism. "
Staffed by students in writing, editing and photography
courses, -the publication will be issued weekly for the
remainder of the semester. The newspaper's circulation is to be
2,000, according to a spokesman.
