The resolution, introduced by the Senate's Ad-Hoc Committee on Collective Bargaining, said the Senate would seek through 'legislative, executive and judicial branches of all levels of government, to participate in and vote on any proposals discussed at such negotiations." UNL faculty members will vote Feb. 16, on whether collective bargaining should be established at UNL. The resolution said the Senate would not tolerate any attempt, should bargaining be established, to "limit stu dent input in a strictly consultative role." Tempers of senators flared over an amendment intro-' duced by Sen. John Welsh that would have provided $93 for a half-page ad in the Daily Nebraskan to explain the Senate's position on collective bargaining. Welsh said the ad would take what he called an unbias ed stance on collective bargaining and only would alert students to possible dangers involved in collective bargain ing. Advertisement biased But Sen. Bob Simonsen said the resolution arid pro posed wording of the ad were biased against collective bargaining and did not tell the possible advantages to stu- . dents. ' ,' '. "If the Senate passes this, well be the biggest bunch of monkeys on campus," Simonsen said. "Welsh has no grasp about what it (collective bargaining) is all about." Simonsen said that until the ad-hoc committee re searched collective bargaining and wrote an unbiased re solution, the Senate should not pass it. Welsh said research done on collective bargaining was "by no means complete," and that no student input into collective bargaining would be "absurd and will hurt us in Presidential The names of two Republicans mi eleven Democrats will appear on the Nebraska All Star Presidential Prefer ence Primary ballot May 11, Nebraska Secretary of State Alien Beermann announced Wednesday.

' ' . - Sen. John Wefso proposed an amendment that would remove from the resolution all references to the ad but it fwilcjl - . Simonsen said he was in favor of student input into collective bargaining but felt that "issuing ultimatums and false statements will get us going nowhere fast." Welsh then withdrew his amendment to appropriate money for the ad. ... Sen. Steve Goldberg sid faculty members vote Mon day on whether they want to enter into collective bargain ing with the administration. He. said that this was the Senate's last chance to do anything before .the vote. The vote on the resolution was 16 in favor, six opposed and two abstaining. Procedures rejected In other action, the Senate voted down electoral pro cedures for this spring's ASUN elections as proposed by ASUN's electoral commission. The vote came when senators disagreed with a stipula tion in the rules that would have omitted party affiliation of candidates to be printed on the ballot' next to their names. x - Rich Moderow of the electoral commission said party affiliation was left off the ballot because it was felt that parties haven't meant much after the elections have been held. Therefore, he said the voters shouldn't be made to think that party affiliation would really affect how a candidate voted once in office. ' "Individuals shouldn't rely on parties," Moderow said. Senators could not vote on specific aspects of the electoral guidelines. t Their rejection means that candidates wanting to file for office will have to wait at least another week until the Senate votes on amended proposals. will list 1 3 Rep,-; Morris' Udafl and Alabama Gov. George Wallace. By Nebraska law, Beermann chooses candidates to ap pear on the primary ballot based upon several criteria including whether the candidate has received federal matching campaign funds under the new federal election laws, Secret Service protection, national news media ex posure and primary ballot positions in other states. Dele gate caucus results in other states, Harris and Gallup Poll results and registration with the Federal Election Commis sion, also are considered, he said. ' Candidates listed not wanting their name on the ballot must file an affidavit with the Secretary of State by March 12 disavowing intentions of running for the presidency in any other state.
