MH1E1:(1 t r f .- f 4f '-J I 1 '3 AS UN President Ron Clingenpeel got a free trip to the Sugar Bowl and an invitation to the Governor's Inaugural Ball as part of the benefits of being a nonvoting member of the NU Board of Regents. Regent just lacks vote Extras come with job An expense-paid trip to the Sugar Bowl and television exposure are two of the extras AS UN President Ron Clingenpeel gets as a nonvoting member of the NU Board of Regents. Clingenpeel, who was sworn in Dec. 12, has all the rights, responsibilities and privileges of a full member of the board, with the exception of the vote, Clingenpeel said that although he enjoyed the trip to New Orleans for the Sugar Bowl, he wouldn't have gone if his trip had been financed by student fees. The NU athletic dept. paid the air fare and hotel and food costs for each regent. "As far as I know, I haven't received that much (ss student regent)," Clingenpeel added. "Of course, I was elected in December and I will be through in March. I don't know what football brings, I don't know what the basketball season brings." "I was invited to the Governor's Inaugural Ball," he said, "but I still had to pay $10." He said the next UNL student regent, who takes office in March after the ASUN election, will get free football tickets. More interviews with reporters and television exposure have also come with his new position, he said. "If you call that a privilege," he added. Last week, Clingenpeel shared the spotlight with Regent Ed Schwartzkopf on the TV program "Dateline Nebraska." All regents are given expenses to attend the meetings. But Clingenpeel said that living in Lincoln means he will not need any expense money. Rare cancer cluster found in Kearney area A rare clustering of lymphoma cases, a type of cancer, has been discovered in the Kearney area, according to a University of Nebraska Medical Center official. Dr. Michael Verlin, assistant professor of medicine in the medical center hemotology division, said he has no idea when the cases were first discovered in the Kearney area. Lymphoma, a tumor of the lymph nodes, is not rare, he said. But, Verlin said, a clustering of cases in such a small area is rare. Verlin said he did not know the exact number of cases in the area, but he did say it has affected all ages and apparently is not hereditary. "It's something more complicated than leukemia," he said. "It is being investigated right now. No one is sure what cauws it. Everything is purely speculative." It is unlikely that the water supply has caused the disease, Verlin said, because lymphoma is not the result of such a simple cause-effect relationship. "Since Kearney is somewhat of an agriculturally-oriented area, there is some speculation that animal viruses may have something to do with the cause," he said. "A virus causes this tumor in animals, and there is some speculation here that there might be a carry-over affect on humans." However, Verlin said a virus that causes a malignant tumor in humans has not been discovered. Patients are given standard drugs as medication for lymphoma, he said. The drugs have the side-effect of suppressing the immunity system in the body, he said. Thus patients using this medication are more susceptible to colds and other minor ailments, he said. monday, january 13, 1975 MORRIS PAINT offers low prices on finest quality art supplies...
