ASUN
By Susanna Schafer
After waiting 25 minutes for a quorun to form, ASUN
Senate Wednesday evening set about the business it had left
undone last week, when a quorun was not present.
Sen. John Vihstadt took issue with the coverage the
Senate receives from the Daily Nebraskan by introducing a
resolution requesting that the student newspaper publish
both the minutes and the agenda of every ASUN, Senate
meeting.

He suggested that printing th agenda would spur more
students to attend the ASUN Senate meetings.
President Ann Henry said she had spoken with Mary
and Time wo. Id 5i. problems in printint the ASUN
minu 11 suggested, Henry said, that the agenda m.ght
Z printed if it were prepared for the Da.ly Nebraskan ,n
time to meet its printing deadlines. T. .
A friendly amendment submitted by Sen. Dave Thurbe
was accepted by Vihstadt and passed by the Senate. It
asked the Nebraskan to print only ihe agenda.

so glad to get away without being arrested or
ticketed, of course they're not going to
report him," he said.
He explained there are only three legal
justifications for stopping a car on the
highway. ;
One is a traffic violation, such as speeding
or driving without an up-to-date safety
sticker. .
A vehicle also may be stopped if it fits
the description of a stolen car or a car used
in a crime, he said.
"The only other legal reason for stopping
someone is if the officer can show he has
probable cause to believe the car is carrying
contraband or Is otherwise involved in some
criminal activity."
Burchard said the phrase "probable
cause" covers a wide area,
"!f, for example, a patrolman sees the
occupants of the car passing around a hand
rolled cigaret, that would certainly be reason
enough to pull them over," he said.
"But beyond that, it's pretty much up to
the discretion of the individual officer."
But Burchard said a hunch is not enough
to constitute probable cause.
"This patrolman in Ogallala seems to be
operating on hunch," he said, "and it simply
isn't legal."
Lund claimed the patrolman has testified
in court to stopping four or five cars a day
on! suspicion alone. .
i"He said he has been involved personally
in over 100 drug and narcotics arrests,"
Lund said.
Keith County Sheriff Louis Trujillo had
words of high praise for the patrolman in
question.
"I think he's probably made "rrio re drug
arrests than any other man in Ihe state,"
Trujillo said.
He added, "If everyone in Nebraska had
our (Keith County's) attitude, .the drug
traffickers would pick a different route."
Trujillo emphasized, however, that
cooperation among various law enforcement
agencies was of primary importance in
reducing drug traffic
Carl Gettmann, chief law enforcement
official with the Nebraska Game and Park
Commission, agreed.
"When conservation officers assist in drug
arrests, it is usually a combined effort of the
state and local agencies," he Said.
"But some individual state troopers in the
western part of the state have been
exceptionally good in detecting drug traffic
and making arrests."
Gettman said he believed this was because
"there just aren't that many people' in
Nebraska, and they (drug traffickers) stick
out."
According to Lt. Wayne Rowe of the
State Patrol's Division of Drug Control, the
exceptionally good troopers in western
Nebraska may simply be what he called
specialists.
"Patrolmen have areas of special interest
like anyone else," Rowe said. "One guy may
make more stolen car arrests, not because he
stops more people, but because he's an
expert in detecting stolen cars. "It's the
same with drug arrests.
In the meantime, Keith County i
reputation is growing. According to Kim
Rerrspe, who travels to Colorado frequently
for skiing, "people from as far away as
California know Ogallala is a hd place to
drive through if you have long hair."
Ogallala Police Chief V.L. Fuller said he is
not pleased with his city's distinction.
"People all around the country think we
have a drug problem here," he said. "I talked
to one new resident who moved from a city
back East. He said he'd hesitated . about
bririgmg'his family herd."
" Burchard said, "If one man is responsible
for most of this, then he's got to ..be
stopped."
"We are not in any way out to get this,
one man. We are trying to protect the
interests of our client' Lund said.
"But if some action results from our
investigation, so much the better."
