A couple of chaps from Blue Bell, Pa., write that "as ardent supporters of the women's liberation move ment" they categorically reject the word woman, citing as their reason, as many have cited before, its inclusion of the sexist term man. "In seeking a replacement," they say, "we took the following steps: 1. Change woman to woperson (this was obviously rejected because of the blatant inclusion of the sexist term son). 2. Change woperson to woperdaughter." The letter was signed M. Timmerman (M. Timmerperson) and A. Libove (A. UBove). . Feel Testy? To, demonstrate how commonplace, well-known and trite cliches are, we listed here ten of them, omitting in each one some element you are to supply.

Bernstein Nightfall It wasn't until our Galliano and coffee arrived that I reflected upon our nocturnal . repast and decided it deserved some mention. The scene was the Cork n Cleaver, 301 N. Cotner; the occasion, my last acknowl edged birthday. . For openers, 1 managed a mammoth Bloody Mary while comfortably seated in their dimly lit lounge. Simultaneously, hunger pangs and the Bloody Mary's affect motivated my friend and me to the dining area. We were gra ciously led through the restaurant, with decor reminiscent of a Spanish villa, to one of several almost-private dining rooms. Immediately we were tempted by fresh sauteed mushrooms and, after much delib eration over the extensive wine list, chose a bottle of domestic Camay Beaujolais. With these delicious pacifiers, we were left to leisurely review the menu. by K. Alice Betts My palate had long decided on crab legs, a delicacy foreign to me-brave move con sidering my traditional likings of steak and potatoes. The Cork 'n Cleaver is the only Lincoln restaurant regularly offering crab legs. I was not disappointed. The generous portion of crab, accompanied by hot butter, warm bread- and remnants of my trip to the salad bar, made me a ready glut ton. My friend was equally satisfied with his tender New York sirloin. Attention, sincerity and a catering apr proach describes the quality service we re ceived, and I was impressed by the absence of canned rhetoric which permeates some nearby restaurants. A relaxed and intimate atmosphere, tantalizing cuisine and amicable service promotes an evening at the Cork 'n Cleaver as a memorable experience. , fiat mm mmm - 1 mmt Bimmwr , I.l these and all X 1 other questions answered I here. itf " , ' 'I SVwMHMb r, ,.j iMMtmSlS4tmuu! i'M ' I k(M MnmmiKyiTHssraTAmiN - " All f 3 Iff I . 5 "" - lJJ)tt3 WELCOME TO THE '1 m fVY WONDERFUL WORLD OF m B J J -W ICE SKATING-. i fe SHY MB: 1 Public Ssetionii Keith Jarrett Quartet In concert Sat Dec. 6 8 p.m. Centennial Room Nebraska Union Tickets -$2.50 UNL Student with ID $4.50 General Public at Union South Desk and Dirt Cheap A Mm kind of Musical A I , I Hf?
