"You've got to . . . kiss an angei good mornin' ..." Charley
Pride blasts out of a jukebox in the land of Merle Haggard and
Jeanie C. Riley.

It's Western Week, April 11-16, the annual spring return to
Poy Rodgersand John Wayne.
Games Tuesday afternoon at the tractor testing track will
kick off the week's activities.
At the games, bale-stacking and tug-o-war will build up
appretites for the Bar-B-Q which follows. After the Bar-B-Q all
the young folks will dude up for the dance at 8 p.m.
Western fashions and art, old cowboy movies and horse
shows are aU part of the entertainment that will fill out the
week.
Frank Growling Bear, a Penobscot Indian from Indian
Island, Maine, will be on both campuses Wednesday and
Thursday. He will be at rap-in at 3:30 p.m. Wednesday in the
Nebraska Union Lounge and at 6:30 p.m. Thursday in the
Burr Hall Basement.
The big event of the week, of course, is the rodeo on Friday
and Saturday.
This is the genuine thing, with calf -roping, steer wrestling,
bronc riding, and barrel races. Members of the Great Plains
Region of the National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association will
be competing. Approximately 18 teams have entered.

Appaloosa Horse Show Sunday will be at the State
Fairgrounds.
'Movement' prompts
women's courses
Due to a "heightened consciousness of
women," new courses at UNL are now in the
developing stage, according to a leader in the
women's movement.
A committee, currently being formed to
develop a studies program on an inter-college
basis, is headed by C. Peter Magrath, dean of
faculties .
In an attempt to reinterpret and gain a new
focus on women, Patti Kaminski and the
Women's Action Group proposed a new course
last year. "Women in Contemporary Society"
was offered under the College of Home
Economics and the department of sociology
during both the faH and spring semester.
Constance Kies. professor of food and
nutrition, instructed the course with Kaminski
as student coordinator. Guest speakers were
featured along with feminists serving as
discussion leaders. Students were given
opportunities in a variety of research projects.
Said Kaminski: 'This course is the first step
toward a complete women's studies program. It
is a challenge to say things creatively, but
"Women in Contemporary Society" is at least
one attempt.
Rosemarie Patty, a graduate student in
psychology, with UNL students Jane Kkhvell
and Kaminski, is formulating a new course,
"Sex Role Theory," in the psychology
department.
Next fall. Linda Pratt, assistant professor of
English, is offering a course in American
literature after the Civil War, focusing on
women.
"We will cover a lot of women writers who
don't get taught, along with well-known writers
like Emily Dickinson and male writers who
feature women," Pratt said.
In addition, many students have used the
Women's Resource Center, an informal library
of women's literature, tapes, etc.
