(LPD) is gearing up to make recom mendations for changing , the Lincoln Lancaster County jail, according to LPD Inspector Robert Myers. ' '' Myers, who runs the jail, said Lt. Robert Lattimer and Sgt. Edwin Winters, both of the communications division, have inspec ted jails in Douglas and Sarpy counties. "It will be a week or two before we hash out our proposals," he said. Any re sulting recommendations will be submitted to LPD Chief George Hansen. No changes are certain, Myers said, but the department is considering different visiting hours, a new commissary and menu improvements. Visitation hours at the jail now are: Wednesday and Saturdays: 1 pjn. to 2 pjn., for city prisoners. .Thursday and Sundays: I pjn. to 2 pjn., for county prisoners. Wednesdays: 1 pjn. to 2 pjn., for fed eral prisoners. - Only the immediate families of prison ers are allowed to visit ' u Candy, cigarettes -" A commissary might be installed to sell cigarets," candy and writing materials, ( Myers said, but it wouldn't be a coin vending type, ? "The prisoners would have it broken into and the money stolen in no time," he said. "Besides, they aren't allowed to have money in their cells," Myers said changes in jail menus might be made in light of a recent hunger strike by inmates. ' City authorities also are bantering about a new corrections director position to run the jail, he said, instead of regular personnel. City Councilwoman Sue Bailey, who calls the jail "a dungeon," said she supports the creation of a corrections director. "I've been aiming for this (hiring a cor rection director) for about 10 years," she said. "It's a waste to have trained personnel running the jail." ' Crossword Puzzle ' ESSUtd Oy WSLt XmiG .

The city could receive funds from the Law Enforcement Assistance Administra tion for the position, she added. Councilman John Robinson said he does not oppose a corrections department ad ministered by civSians instead of police. "The Police Dept. should not be in volved in running the jail," Councilman Steve Cook said. "It should be run by someone who has formal and professional training in corrections." The "cramped" jail Quarters aren't large, enough to provide an exercise area, Cook said, and called for exterior lighting. Cur-. rently, the jail has no windows that allow light to come in from outside. . bernstehoaoJj 'Recommend' a noun, too By Theodore M. Bernstein Odd noun. Here's one your host never heard of before. According to Fat Cum mings of Salt Lake City, the word recom mend is used not only as a verb but also as a noun in his city and all other Mormon cities. To enter a Mormon temple, he says, one must have a recommend from one's bish op and a recommend is a piece of paper stating that the holder is in good standing in his church, does not drink or smoke and pays his tithing. Live and learn and earn that's what we always say. Word play. North Dartmouth, Mass., must be afflicted with paronomasia or something similar "(and don't become alarmed; paronomasia only means pun or word play). Dr. Mclvin B. Yoken who teaches at Southeastern Massachusetts University, which is situated there, says that in a neigh boring village he drove past a cowbarn that looked like a motel and on it was a sign that read "Walt's Mootel." Then in North Dartmouth itself a fire place shop advertises, "Everything your hearth desires," and a carwash place is names "Carisma." Any day now he expects someone will open an ice cream parlor called "Just Desserts." Word oddities. A reader asks about the origins of the words bride and groom. Bride comes from the Old English byrd, which meant a fiancee. Groom is a shorten ing of bridegroom, which originated in the Old English bridguma. The guma part meant man, but through folk etymology it was altered to groom, with which it origin ally had nothing to do. (c) 1975 Thsodor M.
