construction of a new life sciences building on the UNL
campus.
Omaha Sen. Duke Snyder introduced LB 94 which would
appropriate $729,000 to improve the fieldhouse and football
field on the UNO campus.
Snyder said he wants to improve the fieldhouse so it can be
used for graduation and other activities. Cuni'iitly, UNO has
no place for band piactice, ROTC diills or intramural
activities, he said.
Snyder said the bill will also improve physical education
facilities "not only for students but for the community."

"If I can get everyone eight to 80 to come to the campus,
they can see the products, and I won't have to sel' education,"
Snyder said.
Another Snyder-introduced bill would repeal the "Indian
bounty", or payment to counties for jailed Indians. Although
he does not oppose subsidising counties which house Indian
prisoners, Syder said when the state put on an arbitrary quota
on imprisonment, it opened hunting season on Indians.
The 1973 Legislature has a long haul ahead of it, if the
early controversies are any indicator. And if this session is like
those in the past, it may be a long DO days.
