Councilmen Steve Cook and Bob Sikyta voted against all seven nominees, while Richard Baker voted against five. Baker made an unsuccessful motion to postpone action on the nominees until next week and to have the seven appear be fore the Council. Among the charges Baker made were: there was not enough information on the nominees, some of the nominees were "out to get the Lincoln Police," the nominees did not represent a true cross section be cause they all live south of 0 St. and six are members of the' Democratic party. Baker is a registered Republican. , Baker, Cook and Sikyta opposed the creation of the Police Review Board. All seven nominees previously said they expected no opposition. The seven board members suggested by Boosalis and confirmed by the Council are: -B.N. Garcia, estimator for Be all Con struction Co. -James E. Kara as, owner of Baker Printing Co. -Ted LaRose, car salesman at Dean Brothers Lincoln-Mercury Inc. -Nancy O'Brien, history teacher at Lincoln Northeast High School. Stanley Sands, president of Standard Meat Co. -Jack Siegman, associate professor of sociology at UNL. -Ed Wimes, part-time UNL business student and Nebraska Highway Dept. employe. By Rex Seline Development of a network to provide university information to students so they could more effectively lobby with their state senators was suggested to the ASUN Governmental Liaison Committee Tuesday night by Neale Coppl, director of the School of Journalism. Copple, who has been serving as a liaison between the University and the Uni cameral, pledged help to establish the net work while discussing budgetary concerns with the committee. "This university has done a poor job of letting the state's citizens know what's going on here, Copple said. He suggested the network could provide information to students so they could give it to the senator from their district. The senators are more inclined to listen if the student is a constituent, according to Copple. In discussion with committee members, Juvenile delinquent girls Panel: after 18 care must continue By Sandy Mohr Although saying Lancaster County pro grams for juvenile delinquents are good, the director of St. Monica's Home told Tuesday's WomenSpeak talk-in series a girl's needs must continue to be met after she is 18. In a panel discussion on "Volunteers, Probation and Female Offenders," Pat Wall said, "unless women's needs are met as juveniles and afterward, they will show up again as troubled, distressed women." Although the St. Monica Home at 6420 Colby St. has "few beds (nine) which are usually full," Wall said, its program allows a woman to think "not just about her crime, but the total picture. The home for adult women tries to place them in vocational positions, Wall said. It accepts juveniles only if they are pregnant and referred by a sponsoring agency or plan to keep their baby, she added. . Pregnancy draws attention If a woman's needs are not met by so ciety or her family, she may "escape into pregnancy," she said. Wall said that when a woman is pregnant, her family and society start paying attention to her. Looking at the needs of a juvenile de linquent also is the goal of Volunteers in Probation (VIP), according to Karen De Brown, volunteer coordinator. VIP, which has about 400 volunteers, tries to place juveniles on a one-to-one .relationship based on common interests and needs. More than SO juveniles on probation are now in the program with adults trying to teach them "how to operate in society and school," she said. DeBrown said a tutoring project set up with teacher's college students, involves about 30 juveniles. Programs such as these help juve niles feel good about themselves, ac cording to Marti Barnhouse, city juve nile probation officer. "Most girls (on probation) have a very poor self-image of themselves," she said.

DeBrowsaid that although the Lan caster County juvenile court tries to treat all juveniles fairly, it tends to be more pro tective toward girls. Barnhouse added that sometimes a double standard also appears in the home. Running away or behaving "ungovernable" are at times tolerated for boys, but not girls, she said. Next week's WomenSpeak topic at noon, "Parenthood is Optional," will fea ture a panel discussion on voluntary childlessness. Alumni chief resigns post A chance for advancement and a "much higher salary" were reasons Terry Fairfield, director of alumni programs, cited for leav ing Nebraska to become director of alumni administration at the Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE) in Washington, D.C. The 1973 UNL graduate has been director for two-and-one-half years. His responsibilities at CASE will include planning and coordinating conferences and seminars in alumni administration. Fairfield said the move will give him a chance to complete masters work at George Washington University. His replace ment probably will not be appointed until next May, he said. Copple said the first thing that would need to be done would be to locate" each stu dent's district. Secondly, budget informa tion would have to be made more under standable. Copple expressed concern over uni versity budget cuts and outlined several reasons for the increasing financial crunch, including: A decreases in federal funding. Declining amounts from tuition and state taxes. He blamed the tuition decrease on a fall in number of credit hours taken per student, despite an increased enroll ment this year. Inflation taking a greater chunk of dollars than budget increases have made up for. -The advent of program budgeting, where the Legislature specifies money for certain programs, leaving no latitude to the university to put money into a different program. Student's trial in December Trial has been set for Dec. 1 1 for Regina Edington by County Judge Jeffre Cheuvront. Edington, a 20-year-old UNL student, previously pleaded innocent to two mis demeanor counts of assault and battery. She was arrested Oct IS in the Nebraska Union after allegedly being involved in a scuffle with UNL student Jeffrey Quacken busti and Campus Police officer Ronald Lunday. City Atty. Dick Wood represented Edington and her lawyer, H. Jeanne Thorough, at the Tuesday docket call at which Cheuvront set trial. Are oo aoino o wake oTup 20 years 5J3Sb and wonder where, lour life went?
