Refrigerator rentals
DoostRHA budget
I :
The Residence Hall Association (RHA)? faced
with one of the largest budgets in its history,
according to RHA president Tim Evensen, will
discuss future budaet allocations Oct. 3. I
A financial report ;was distributed to RHA
members at Thursdays meeting, which $howed
an estimated balance of, $2,507.56. '
A total of $1,700 'was received from this
semester's refrigerator rentals, while expendi
tures for sales tax on the residence hall game
rooms, films and printing and duplicating totaled
$678.78, according to, the report. The balance,
after subtraction of expenditures, left a total of
$807.56, according to the report. .
Evensen reported that the large demand for
refrigerators may not be resolved as soon as first
believed. ! ' . I .
Fvensen said United Students American
Industries, the company that supplies the
'residence hall refrigerators, advised him that the
supply of refrigerators formerly contracted by
RHA can not be obtained. A different type of unit,
however, may require a higher or lower charge to
esidents, he said. Evensen said he should have
more information by the next meeting.
Campus Police again, this year will, provide each
residence hall two scribers, Evensen sai;d. The
proqram was initiated to help recover stolen items
by "inscribing jthe person's name and social
security number on valuable items.; 1
A card must be filled out listing the items
inscribed, he said, which will be held at the
Campus Security office. The cards may be
obtained from floor representatives, he said.

V-Pais recruiting drive begins
with poster party Saturday
I Y-Pals, a "big brother, big sister"
organization sponsored by the YMCA,
will start its recruiting drive Saturday
with a poster party at .the Downtown
YMCA for the volunteers and children
involved, according to Lee Anne Zaro
ban, assistant director of Y-Pals.
Y-Pals match each volunteer with a
child. The volunteer then meets with the
child at least once a week for nine
months tor activities that include
camping and movie-going, said
Zaroban.
; Y-Pal volunteers must be at least 16
year old and must supply three
references, she added.
"The next steD is an interview which
is not an accept or reject thing," Zaro
ban said. "We only want to find out
' more about the volunteer."
i
From this information, the files are
checked for four prospective "pals" and
the volunteer can choose from the four
possibilities, shesaid., '
About one quarter of the Y-Pal
volunteers are UNL or Nebraska Wes
leyan University students, according to
Zaroban. She said almost all volunteers
are college-age. Many are married and
working, she said.
The children, aged four to 14, are
referred by school counselors or any of
the social service programs in Lincoln,
said Zaroban. The majority of the
children are from low-income families
and many only have one parent, she
said.
Presently, there are about 250
matched pairs in Lincoln but another
100 boys and 20 girls need partners,
said Zaroban.
"These children need some guidance
and a friend," shesaid.
Jim Esch, a UNL student with the
Y-Pals program, said helping these
children has been a rewarding experi
ence. "Sometimes I may look like an
authoritarian figure to my pal, but I feel
that I should give him some direction,"
he said.
Jim Eiberger, a UNL student and
Y-Pal volunteer, said he heard about
Y-Pals from friends.
"I decided it was
experience, so one day
a worthwhile
wandered into
the Y-Pal office and volunteered.
"It's hard to say how much I've given
my pal," said Eiberger, "but I think
I've been a father image for him and
that I have made him feel loved."
