William Weinberg, professor of Industrial
Relations at Rutgers University in New Jer
sey, a collective bargaining expert, told '
Judge Wall that splintering collective
bargaining would promote irresponsibility
in the separate unions.
Patrick Healey, lawyer for the UNL
chapter of AAUP, questioned Sample
about recent problems of possible accredi
tation loss in the School of Social Work
because of separate operations on the UNI. -and
UNO campuses.
Sample told Healey that the accrediting
team for the school blamed the lack of
autonomy within the School of Social
Work on different missions of the two host
institutions.
He said the units would "hold out, not
wanting to give in if the other was going to
get abetter deal."

"Having all faculty under one umbrella
makes for a more positive bargaining
process," Weinberg said. More than one
bargaining unit would add expense and
bureaucracy, he added.
Weinberg said NU is similar to Rutgers,
which also has three campuses. A system
wide bargaining unit was set up at Rutgers
in 1969.
Weinberg said there are separate con
cerns among the campuses but that
separate concerns also can be found among
departments on one campus. '
The court also heard testimony from
David Dow, UNL law professor for 29
years and from James McCabe, a member
of the College of Dentistry faculty for 16
years.
Different schedules
The two testified that the calendars and
schedules of their colleges were different
than the rest of UNL and that faculty
members operate under a code of ethics
not practiced by most departments or
colleges.'
The colleges of Law and Dentistry have
asked the court to be excluded from any
bargaining unit. t
Everett Petersen, professor of agricul
tural engineering, told the court that
UNL's 164 agricultural and home
extension agents wish to be included in the
bargaining unit.
The unit being sought by AAUP does
not include agriculture or home economics
extension agents.
English professor John Robinson,
president of the UNL AAUP chapter, testi
fied that the UNL faculty is not involved in
the everyday matters of UNO and the Uni
versity of Nebraska Medical Center
(UNMC) faculty.
Intercampus Bus Service
Passengersquestionfares,busstops
A change In paying procedures and few
er pick up points are two major concerns
of students using the Intercampus Bus Ser
vice. The service, operated by Campus
Police, provides transportation for students
between UNL's City and East campuses.
According to Captain Kenneth Markle,
of Campus Police, the only change in fare
has been the switch from season parses to
cash or tokens. Last yea; students could
obtain season passes for $15 per year or by
purchasing a parking sticker. Thi3 year stu
dents must pay a dime or a bus token when
boarding the bus.
Twenty tokens may be purchased for
$1.75, a savings of about two cents per
ride. According to several students, this
change is an increase in fare.
One student said, "A dime may not
seem to be a lot of money, but if you ride
the bus every day, four times a day, those
dimes can add up." . . .
Another student said she thought that if
the university offers classes on both
campuses, then the university should
provide free bus service to the students.
She suggested that costs for the service be
covered by student fees
Ray Coffey, assistant business manager
of the Office of Business and Finance, said
the ten cent fare began with the service in
1962. He said that the charge covers little
less than half of the total cost for running
the buses.
In the past, some of the revenue gener
ated from the sale of parking stickers was
used to cover the remainder of the costs,
he said.
Because of a decline in the number of
stickers sold, Coffey said, his office is
unsure of how the balance will be covered
this year. He said that next year's UNL
budget request includes funds for operating
the service and if approved the buses will
be free to students.

Because only about ten per cent of UNL
students use the service, it is not likely that
student fees could be used to pay the costs,
Coffey said.
Last year the buses picked up students
within a half block of each Residence Hall.
Some students now need to walk as many
as three blocks for the bus. One Selleck
Quadrangle resident said he did not mind
the walk now, but when winter came he
said it would be a "real hassle." .'
Markle saift that in the past the buses
picked up quite a few students in front of
Selleck, but because of residents' com
plaints about the buses', exhausts, they no
longer stop there.
He said Campus Police have received
few complaints about late buses and those
problems have been corrected. He also
said that a few buses had to be added
during peak hours to alleviate the problem
of overcrowded buses.

He said Ford's "unilateral $2 per barrel
tax on foreign crude oil has caused more
hardship for Americans than any price
action OPEC has taken."
. "President Fod's calls for decontrols
and his appeal to a return to a free market
are misleading. There is no free enterprise
nor competition in the petroleum industry
in this country," Bayh said.
. He said he supported a Senate bill aimed
at breaking up the large oil corporation's
vertical integration structure which Bayh
said allows those companies to control
petroleum "from the hole in the ground to
the gas tank and maintain non-competitive
practices."
He said Ford's idea of conserving energy
by allowing prices to rise was harmful to
most Americans. A better method of con
servation, he said, had been vetoed by
Ford.
He was referring to Congressional mea
sures aimed at improving home insulation,
changing the nation's dependency from oil
and gas to coal and other more plentiful
fuels and restrictions on the manufacture
of low gas mileage cars. '
Bayh said that as a farmer himself, he is
angry at what he called Ford and Agricul
ture Secretary Earl Butz's agricultural
"non-policy."
He said they have caused farmers and
workers to become needless adversaries.
"When I was at Purdue, I took an
agriculture economy class and the
instructor was Earl Butz. People have asked
me what grade I received and I can tell you
it was better than what I'd give Butz now."
Bayh said farmers have not gained at all
from the retail food price increases of 30
per cent in the last two years. In that same
time, net farm income has dropped nearly
16 per cent, according to Bayh.
He said farm prices are down seven per
cent from a year ago while operating costs
are up 1 1 per cent.
Bayh said a farm policy is needed which
would help control international market
fluctuations and provide a "strategic
reserve" of agricultural commodities to
reduce instability of domestic food prices.
