This explanation of student fees, given at the Council on Student Life (CSL) meeting Thursday, was a CSL committee response to a complaint concerning the equity of student fees. Dennis..Snyder, CSL member, said since student fees must be payed, he thought they couldn't be broken down another way without shifting financial responsibility on to another group unfairly. Snyder added he believed services such as the Health Center should be payed for The inequity appears when a student taking seven hours or more pays full student fees but is not allowed to purchase a football ticket because he is not a full time student. participation. LPD licensed bicycles outside the Nebraska Union and distributed pamphlets on routes, rules and regulations for cyclers, safety tips and. legal alcohol safety levels for drivers. Captain L.A. Oberg, director of safety education and training division for the Nebraska State Patrol, said, "We want to let people know that we're not here to get them, but to help them. We want to emphasize that the laws were made for their protection." Officer Richard Farley of Campus Police's Special Services Division said the activities were planned to give students a chance to talk to police in. a "situation other than when something is wrong. "Too many times we don't have a chance to find out where people are at and what their problems are," he said.

That was a comment by one of approxi mately 20,000 people who, by 3 p.m. Wednesday, had traveled through the American Freedom Train in Omaha. The Freedom Train, which began its journey in April, 1975 from iwoomington, Del., cost $15.5 million to complete, according to Marty Cumming, secretary to the senior vice president of operations for the Freedom Train. The total budget is $20 million, includ ing cost of buying the 24-car train, salaries for 150 staff members and fuel, Cumming said. The train has approximately 500 exhib its, including Clark Gable's original script for the movie, "Gone With the Wind," Abraham Lincoln's rocking chair from the Ford Theatre, Bing Crosby's gold record for White Giristmas, Shirley Temple's stuffed teddy bear, George Washington's copy of the Constitution and Amelia Ear hart's flight goggles and scarf. All items on the train are on loan and will be returned after completion of its trip in December, 1976, Cumming said. Displayed in 10 exhibit cars, the items take approximately 20 minutes to see. A conveyer belt carries spectators through the cars. Most common complaints by people after going through the train are the speed .at which they are taken through and the long wait in line. Admission is $2 for adults and $1 for children under 12 and adults over 65. The American Freedom Train Founda tion, a nonprofit organization, is in charge of the project. According to Cumming, five companies, the Pepsi-Cola Co., General Motors Corp., Kraft Foods, Prudential Insurance Co. of America and a company which wanted to remain anonymous, donated $1 million each for the train. The remaining $15 million, according to Cumming, is to be collected through ticket prices, souvenirs and a percentage of con cession sales. Chuck Blackmon, Freedom Train's director of field operations, said 10 per cent of ticket revenue" goes to local sponsors. The Omaha-Douglas County Bicenten nial Commission sponsored the Omaha visit. Any profit made by the train will be donated to a charity to be determined by the Freedom Train Foundation, Cumming said. If the train loses money, she said, the Foundation will absorb the losses. The train will be in Omaha through Sunday, September 28. It is open from 8 ajti. to 10 p.m. weekdays and Sunday and from 8 a.m. to midnight on Friday and Saturday. The train's next stop is Colorado Springs, Colo. uu la Ja giwinm mm Ally) ) Fine Italian Food '-v-.-i'r."'", "A --ItiC -v . i sr. -m. runt '. jf 0- - ma , v " "S.. - sw .w f. 3 . ft.
