Union game room out of room
By Larry Stunkel
The Nebraska Union game room
should be expanded to meet a demand
which has outgrown the available space,
according to Pat Scanlon, Union
recreation programs adviser.
According to Scanlon, while the profit
realized by the game room has
increased annually since its opening in
the 1950s, its operating space hasn't.
"We really need expansion," Scanlon
said. "Right now we're operating at
capacity, but we're at a standstill
because we're limited in our space and
we don't have enough space to meet the
demand."
Improvements made last summer
included remodeling the bowling alleys,
the addition of new pool tables, foosball
tables and pinball machines while a
number of games were moved into the
concession area near the game room.
"I'd like to move into the North and
South conference rooms just off the
present game room," Scanlon said.
"We'd add at least two pool tables, two
more foosball tables and five pinball
machines."
Scanlon said the expansion would
involve little expense and return a larger
profit. He cited the remodeling of the
Kansas State game room last year and
the increased profits that resulted.
Even though residence halls and
fraternities at UNL have both installed
games and games areas in the past year,
Scanlon said the Union games room still
returned a 25 percent increase in profit
over the last year.
"It's a healthy operation at a low
cost," Scanlon added. "We've purpose
ly kept our prices lower than private
businesses to encourage students to use
the areas here. Our bowling is the
lowest in town and we reduced our price
to play pool."

Speech clinic to get new home
As of January, 1976, the Barkley
Center for Communicative Disorders
will provide a new home for the Speech
Pathology and Audiology Dept., the
Specialized Office for the Deaf, and the
Special Education Office.
The building, located on East Campus
south of the new Law School and east of
the School of Dentistry, is being
constructed for the purpose of preparing
persons to work with the deaf, as well as
those with speech and hearing handi
caps, according to Robert McGlone,
director of the Speech Pathology and
Audiology Clinic.
The Barkley Center will house all
materials for teaching the deaf, the
speech and hearing clinic, the special
education clinic, faculty offices, class
rooms, a pre-school nursery for deaf
children and those with language and
learning disorders, library facilities, the
speech and hearing research laboratory,
and the audiology clinic, McGlone said.
The center is dedicated to William E.
Barkley, a prominent Lincoln banker
who died in 1944, and his wife Edna,
who taught the deaf in her home, and
then at the University until her death in
1956.
In their wills, the Barkleys provided
what is expected to total approximately
$4 million to be used for the training of
teachers for the deaf and hard of
hearing, and people with speech
defects. McGlone added that Robert E.
Stepp will be director of the Barkley
Center.
