Introducing resolutions allowing the Lincoln City Council
and the municipal court to hold night sessions for the aid of
the public have been two projects councilman Max Denney has
been working on since his election last May.
Denney promoted a resolution that called for the council to
have night sessions once a month from August to December.
He said this is on a trial basis to see whether the sessions are
successful in increasing public participation.
"We had such a good turnout at our first night meeting in
August that we had to bring extra chairs into the council
chambers and some people had to stand in the hall," he said.
"It appears that we will have a good turnout this month too
because we have a good agenda."
His other project provides for night sessions of the
municipal court to accomodate the public.
"This is primarily for those who get traffic tickets and have
to leave work for a day to go down to court and pay the fine.
If they can come at night, they don't have to leave work and
lose a day's pay," he said.
Denney also said that many employers say it costs them
extra money when an employe has to take off work to appear
in court.
"This too would be on a trial basis to see if it is worthwhile
for the public and to see if the public wants it," he said.
Another part of this ordinance would add a fourth judge to
the municipal court, the legal amount allowed the city by
statute.
"We met with the current three judges and they said that
their docket is backing up and they need a fourth judge to
help them carry the load," Denney said.
In his other council work, Denney serves on a committee to
study all of the committees involved in the city government to
determine their functions.
"Pending a report on this, some committees that were
created years ago are no longer needed and may be gotten rid
of and some committees that overlap each other may be

Nutrition study to be presented
The results of nutritional studies of a cereal grain, triticale,
by UNL researchers Constance Kies and Hazel Fox is to be
presented at the International Symposium on Triticale in
Lubbock, Tex., this week.
Triticale is a cross between wheat and rye grain and
contains a relatively high amount of protein.
Fox, chairman of the UNL Food and Nutrition Dept., is to
present finding indicating that triticale grain is well utilized by
adult humans when fed as the only source of dietary protein.
The UNL study represents one of the few, if not the only,
attempt to examine human utilization of triticale, according to
Fox. The experiments were carried out after analysis of this
grain indicated a high content of lysine, an amino acid
generally limited in grains, and following the favorable
response by animals to it after feeding trials.
