Sadie Hawkins to find her man
By Lisa Brown
"It's comin' agin. Sadie an' her
friends are a lurchin' at th' star-tin' gate,
and Li'l Abner an' th' single men are
shaking in their britches. Sadie
Hawkins' Day is comin'."
Sadie will get another chance to catch
Li'l Abner this Friday night at the
annual UNL Sadie Hawkins' Day dance
to be held in the East Campus Union
from 9 to 12 p.m. Steel Avenue will play
at the dance which is open to the public.
Admission is $1 .
John Novotny, co-chairman of the
dance and concerts committee for the
East Union, said the winners of a Sadie
Hawkins and Li'l Abner contest will be
presented trophies at the contest,
following a week of campaigning.
Interviews
Ten women and four men .originally
tried out to be candidates at interviews
held Nov. 3. Five women and four men
were chosen. Novotny said they were
judged on character, humor, acting
ability and partially on costume, re
sponse to questions and their Sadie
Hawkins accent.
During the interview each candidate
presented a skit or talent. Elizabeth
Waite, one of the candidates, said some
of the questions they were asked during
the interview included: "How are you
going to catch Li'l Abner, and if that
plan fails, what will you do? and How do
women in Dogpatch feel about women's
liberation?"
The nine candidates who will cam
paign this week on both campuses and
the group they represent are: Vic
Phillipson, Burr Hall; Kelvin Jorgenson,
Alpha Gamma Rho; Jerry Peterson,
Alpha Gamma Sigma; Mark Buell, Ag
Men; Janet Budt, independent; Lisa
Hattem, Delta Gamma; Chris Zenk,
Love Hall; Elizabeth Waite, Kappa
Delta and Jody Johnson, Fedde Hall.
Each of the candidates will campaign
during the week and many of them will
receive help from their living unit.
Johnson said she may begin campaign
ing Sunday night. She plans to do skits
at several of the living units, as weil as
other activities that her spirit committee
organizes.
Voting at ihe dance
Each of the candidates will end their
campaign at the dance Friday night by
presenting their talent during the
intermission. For every ticket pur
chased, people are given one ballot to
choose the Sadie Hawkins and LCI
Abner of their choice.
Novotny said a traveling trophy is
passed to the new winner each year,
unless one living unit wins it three
consecutive years. Then they keep it,
and a new one is started. He said Ag
Men have won the trophy for the last
three years so a new Li'l Abner trophy
will be started this year.
Last year about 500 people attended
the dance, Novotny said, and he expects
the same number or more this year.

ROTC scholarship
First for a woman
The Air Force ROTC program gives scholar
ships each year to students enrolled in its program
But it's not every year that one is awarded to a
woman.
Becky Cutler, a UNL junior, is the first woman
to receive the full, two-year scholarship. She was
selected on the basis of grade point average, her
score on an officer qualifications test and summer
camp record.
Cutler, one of 14 women in the Air Force ROTC
program, attended a six-week camp last summer
in Maxwell, Ala., to learn about Air Force ROTC.
After she completed the camp, she decided to
continue her education in the ROTC program.
Ghe said she likes the program because of the
job assurance after graduation and because the
Air Force is ' 'good experience. "
A math major in Teachers College, Cutler said
she would like to work with computers during her
four-year term of duty in the Air Force after
graduation.
She said if given the chance to travel sometime
during those four years, she would like to go to
Germany. She studied German for two years at
Bellevue High School.
In her spare time, Cutler said she likes to go to
campus plays and films. Since coming to college,
she has developed an interest in sports and is on
an intramural volleyball team.
