Senators return for final day action
Nebraska state senators return to the capitol Wednesday for
the final day of the 1972 legislative session. Seventy-five bills
are scheduled for final reading and at least one veto overide
attempt is possible.
Lawmakers adjourned last Wednesday with one day left out
of the constitutionally set 60-day limit. The week-long recess
was scheduled to process all bills set for final reading and
provide a chance to overide any vetos by the governor.
All bills not passed when Lt. Gov. Frank Marsh gavels the
session to sine die adjournment are automatically killed.
Seventy-three bills are scheduled to die by that method. All
but two of those have failed to receive even first-round
consideration by the whole Unicameral.
A total of 475 bills were introduced in the second session
of the 82nd Nebraska Legislature bringing the two-year total
to 1,517. Approximately 100 bills were carried over from the
1971 session into this year's session.
One of the most controversial bills sitting on general file
and scheduled to die at adjournment is Kearney Sen. Gerald
Stromer's LB 1271.
Known as the controversial student fees bill, it would have
prohibited any university or college receiving any state funds
to collect mandatory student fees.
Stromer said Tuesday there was not sufficient time in this
session to push the bill through the Unicameral.
Stromer said the NU administration was "known for
inaction," and he hoped the Board of Regents would take
some action to "protect the individual student" by changing
the fee collection policy.
If the regents do not take some action, Stromer anticipated
a bill similar to LB 1271 would be introduced next year.
Several senators have recommended extending the session
an extra day. Their contention is that 75 bills which must be
read in full before they are voted on could cause senators to
remain far into the night. '
One bill set for final reading is the 1972-73 massive capital
construction package. It provides over $10 million in
construction funds for the University of Nebraska,
v The largest portion, $5.22 million, has been designated for
the Lincoln campuses. Of that, $3.32 million is for an addition
to Love Memorial library. A new home economics building
receives $1,485 million in state funds.
Remodeling planned for Ferguson Hall receives $190,000;
planning for new life sciences and College of Law buildings get
$100,000 each; and $25,000 is allotted for the planning of a
new veterinary science building.
UNO would receive $3.85 million in funds. The bulk of
that, $3.5 million, would be toward a new classroom building.
The campus would also get $250,000 for land acquisition and
$100,000 for planning a new library.
The Medical Center stands to receive nearly $1 million in
state funds. A School of Nursing is set to get $700,000. The
center would also receive $200,000 for land acquisition and
$25,000 for planning an out-patient clinic.
The final $75,000 appropriated in the bill would be for
University-wide renovation and remodeling.
It is not anticipated the bill . will receive any serious
opposition.
Earlier in the session, senators narrowly turned down a bill
adding over $3 million for the actual construction of a new
College of Law building.

H&HAD THE VISION...
WE HAVE XTT-
THE WAY. i
When the
Paulists were
founded in 18S8
hv Isaac Hecker, they were the
first religious Community of
priests established in North
America by an American and
for Americans.
Father Hecker, who was a cen
tury ahead of his time, wanted
Paulists to be free of compul-.
sory activities so they could be
flexible enough to meet - the
needs of the Church in every age
as they arose.
Today's Paulist can be as in
volved as he wants to be. He is
given the freedom to use his own
talents to do his own thing. He
may be a parish priest, an edu
cator or a press, radio or televi
sion personality.
Father Hecker discovered the
value of communications early.
With his monthly publications
and pamphlets, he laid the
foundation for the PaulistNew
man Press, the country's largest
publisher and distributor of
Catholic literature.
Today, Father Hecker's vision
and foresight have led to the es
tablishment of Paulist radio, tele
vision and film centers on a scale
that perhaps, not even he dreamed
of.
But then, he had the vision.
He showed us the way.
