The Nebraska Union Art Lending Library has introduced a $1
service charge this semester. The library, which allows students to
check out art prints for a semester, has not charged in the past.
Suzanne Brown, Union programming adviser, said the repair
costs on paintings lent last semester were $360 for the library's

budget of about $2,000, she added.
Once again this semester, the main lounge in the Nebraska
Union has become a temporary art gallery. On Saturday, students
with IDs may check out one print for the semester. Brown said
the prints usually are ail gone an hour and a half after the lending
library opens.
In the past, students have shown up several hours before

they wanted. By the time lending started, many persons had been
crowded out by others who arrived later than they did, Brown
said.
This semester the lending will begin at 11 a.m., but numbered
tickets will be handed out starting at 9 a.m. Students can pick up
tickets early and return at It a.m. The coordinators wiH then let
10 students at a time select pictures, with trios? holding the
lowest numbers going first. '
Ruth Brokering, Union Program Council Lending Library
chairwoman, said the Union's Record Lending Library will not he

this semester should contact Brokering at 435-9720. Volunteer?

The old senate just ain't what (t

Since last spring's ASUN Senate

senators have resigned their positions.
To date, 13 senators have resigned.

Former parliamentarian, Doug
Podall, resigned recently because of
"personal and time conflicts,"
according to Ann Henry, ASUN
president.
Podall had been absent from several
meetings prior to his resignation.
Henry said he was paid for the
meetings he attended. '
The ASUN Senate budget calls for
the parliamentarian to be paid $100

about the Senate before I ran," said
Sarah Denker, a GOYA ex-senator
from the College of Hsme Economics.
Denker resigned in November.
Expressing the view of some other
ex-senators interviewed, Denker said
she "didn't know what she was getting
into" when she ran for the office last
spring, and did not know how much
work it would be.
She said she resigned because she
"felt that she really was not getting
enough out of it."
"I didn't put enough time into it,

"I was pretty disenchanted with the

represented the College of Agriculture.
"I was working at the time and
having trouble with some of my
classes," the junior in agricultural
economics said. He resigned in early
October.
Voigt said he wouldn't advise
anyone to run unless he knew enough

Brothers' everyday psychology
leaves her little time to spare
TJ
By Ellyn Hess
The only woman ever to answer the $64,000
question on a national TV quiz show today is
one of America's best known psychologists.

is not having enough time to do everything she
vyants to do.
"I promised myself years ago that I wouldn't
do anything I didn't want to do," she said,
adding that at first it was difficult for her to say
no to requests.
Brothers said she was in Lincoln filming the
6-mtnute introduction to the "Becoming Me"
series because she thinks the 12 part program is
helpful for teaching primary school children

"Oie aim of the series, according to
producer-director John Rubin, is to show
children they can make their own judgments.
Brothers first became weil-known in 1955
for answering questions on The $64,000
Question television quiz show.
A frequent guest on The Tonight Show, she

At a half hour press conference Saturday.
, the psychologist fielded questions ranging from
premarital sex to analysis of President Nixon's
doodles.
Brothers compared having premarital sexual
relations to being weightless, saying she thinks
that while marriage isn't necessary for love and
affection, it does help reduce feelings of

"Part of rrociage is saying 'I'm not afraid
anymore and S trust you," she said, adding that
often problems in sexual relationships are a
result of a person's fear that the partner will
leave.
Asked whether studying Nixon's doodles is a
fair way to judge his personality, Brothers said
she thought this type of analysis is accurate.
"In everything we do-in our tone of voice,
our way of walking, our gestures-we express
ourselves," she said, adding that while doodle
analysis doesn't give the full picture, it does
give clues to an individual's personality.
"Whatever information we can get about our
leaders is valuable and helps to round out the
picture," she said.
Brothers said she hasn't seen Nixon's
doodles, but that she studied sketches by the
late President John F. Kennedy. She said
Kennedy often drew pictures of sailboats
during critical meetings, indicating his secret
longing o escape to what hs considered a
relaxing activity.
