Coalition President Ron Sinsabt, addressing the cam
pus over KRUMY radio, Thursday urged students to
"remain calm" and warned Greek students to "accept the
new realities at UNL and work within the system.
He said that as a security precaution, Greek students
wouM not be allowed to carry firearms, drink beer, date,
use fireworks, vote in university elections or cash checks
at Gateway Rank until further notice.
He also said all Greeks would be confined to their
maternity houses for the time being to "prevent them
from forming counter-insurgency plans during FACs or
formals." .
. Coup prevented N
Sinsalot explained that the Coalition made its move to
prevent a planned coup hy Theta Nu Epsilon (TNE), a
right-wing terrorist organization. He said all TNE leaders
would be jailed as soon as the Coalition can figure out
who they are.
However, in a conciliatory gesture to the Greeks,
Sinsalot named Paul Moronson, a member of Lamby Pi
Alkie fraternity, as secretary of the Coalition.
Tea brains
In a prepared statement, Moronson called on all "re
sponsible Greeks" to cooperate with the new regime. He
said the vast majority of Greek students on campus were
responsible and that only a few "rucking Greeks' and
"pea brains' were causing all the trouble.
In a related move, Al Eviland, a senior prissy major
from North Bend, announced formation of the Greek
Liberation Army (GLA) that would attempt to retake the
UNL student government.
Eviland refused to name GLA members, but said each
Greek house president has been given a list of GLA mem
bers and will read it at next Monday's meetings.
He said no one will be forced to join the GLA and
compared the movement to a labor union inviting
members to beat up scabs.
Scott Crok, a member of the Coalition's rules com
mittee, said Wednesday's actions definitely proved that
the Coalition was through with "toy politics."
"Those ain't toys our Pershing Rifle boys is totin,"
Crok said.
Former ASUN First Vice-President Tonysee Ernie
Williams said it was "highly unlikely" the Sonut could
muster a quorum for next Wednesday's meeting.
Touna now

The NU Board of Regents (BORE) voted unanimously
at its Maundy Thursday meeting to appoint Boy Toung to
the ex-officio position of UNL father.
Tm tickled pink that Tong was selected," said Daddy
Reckabridge, who has been invalid UNL daddy since
Thames Iceberg went on to bigger and better things (more
money).
Since Toung has been director of Orecome State Uni
versity's child care center for 41 years, he will make an
"excellent" UNL father, said Teddy Swartzcough, Lincoln
regret.
"I concur with Teddy " said Grand Peninsula Regret
Pappa Koetoe. "Toung said plans are being made to install
milk machines on all dorm floors, and I think that's a fine
idea."
However, Wilbur Regret Bobby Pronot said he had
several reservations one at the Happy and the other at
the Homey Hotel so he had to leave the BORE meeting
before he could expound on Toung's appointment.
In other action, the BORE accepted a proposal to
secretly initiate an invsstigztbn of UNL's geek system.
Ben Kader, UNL vice-father for children's affairs, intro
duced the proposal.
"I've received a lot of static about UNL's geeks, not to
mention the poor reception on my TV," Kader smiled.
"The complaints have come from all quarters (nickles and
dimes), and usually pertain to the inert geek activity," he
modestly added.
"I've been particularly disturbed by the lack of geeks
in DNE (Da News Editors)," he chuckled. "That's why I'd
Eke to start an investigation and see where the geeks are
hanging out and what they're up to."
Regret Robert Wrong of Minden was the only regret in
opposition to the proposal, which he said represented a
crusade by UNL parents.
"I'm sorry, pardon me, but I was a geek at UNL and I
don't think there is anything that needs investigating,"
Wrong said. "The geeks are just doing their own thing, so
leave them alone and they'll come home, wagging their
panhel behind them."
Will Biller, UNL's No. 1 regret, said he didn't have
much to say about the investigation. Eier is a geek ASSN
president and UNL student regret.

Another issue raised was that of dorm food, specifical
ly bread. Hermit Wagher, Schuyler regret, made a motion
on the floor and was asked to leave until secretary Bill
Swandaughter could clean up his movement.
Despite the staunch movement, UNL Housing Baby
sitter Richard Legstrong recommended that the BORE
discontinue allowing dorms to serve meat to students.
"Have you ever seen an angry student?" Legstrong
asked the board. "Whenever we feed them meat they just
go crazy and act like animals trying to make their kill."
"I figure that if we take meat away from them, they'll
be a lot more civil, passive and tolerable," he said.
But Reckabridge opposed the recommendation because
he said he enjoyed "getting the student's gander up." In
addition, he asked the BORE to reject the proposal.
Without haste, the BORE accepted Reckabridge's
suggestion and killed the no-meat proposal. BORE chair
man Hermit Toyland said the proposal was absurd because
it did not include the remvoal of foul from dorm menus.
Toyland added that he hates foul, and if anything makes
him angry, foul does.
"Children do not live by bread alone," Toyland cried.
"They can have their meat and eat it too!" he yelped.
The only other items the board struggled with were
First Drown and UNL-UNO parody. Regret Rob Silence
of Scottsbluff said he was sick and sleepy about wading
around in the First Drown issue.
"Well," Silence said, "Hurnmmmjnmm."
"You teU em Rcbby," exclaimed Swartzcough. "We
don't want to bother with anything like First Drown
unless it involves Rob Uncanny. He's our boy and well
back him at least two per cent."
Then chairman Toyland asked if anyone wanted to
discuss the UNLUNO parody issue.
"No, not today " Koetoe said. "It's been going on
since UNL and UNO first purged in 196S, so I don't think
there's any rush.
"You can bet your bibby itH still be going on when
the new EORE members are elected in November," he
said. "I move that we let them take care cf it."
"Motion carries" Toyland said, motioning up
Swandaughter to dean up Kcetoes movement "Regret
Swartzcough, since you like to gtt your name in the
paper, would you move for adjcumar.ant?"
"IH do anything in the name of my family " Swartz
cough said.
He did, and they did.
