Wagner .
Continued from Page 1
Wagner said student fees are too high,
and should be eliminated except where
they are absolutely necessary ; such as for
residence halls, health center and bond
redemption funds.
ASUN and the Daily Nebraskan are
examples of institutions that shouldn't
receive student fees, he said.
Wagner said he is in favor of beer on
campus now, arid eventually all alcohol.
"Before you walk you creep," Wagner
said. "We'll start with beer. It's in practi
cally every dorm room anyway. . . We
might as well recognize it and allow it."
Wagner said he can sympathize with
student disturbances before the Oklahoma
Nebraska game, while he can't condone it.
In Sept., 1978, a University Police
officer and a student security supervisor
filed reports claiming that Wagner yelled at
them and accused them of not doing their
jobs.
Wagner denied that the incident took
place, and claimed it was a "case of mis
taken identity."
Officer Barbara McGill identified
Wagner from Daily Nebraskan photos of
various middle-aged men. A police check
of the car's license number showed that the
car was registered to Wagner.
Wagner's private business procedures
have been almost as controversial as his
stands and actions in his public life,
including those on the Board of Regents.
For more than a year, Wagner has been
indirectly involved in lawsuits filed by
Pokorny against the city of Schuyler,
because of land that the city purchased
from Wagner for a sewage lagoon.
The Schuyler City Council purchased
252 acres at $2,000 an acre. Pokorny
claimed that this was too much to pay for
the land, which is in a flood plain. The city
council tried to push it through without
the public's knowledge, he said.
Last year Pokorny sued the city for vio
lating the state open meetings law during
the land purchase, and won. But the coun
cil brought up the land deal again while
Pokorny was out of town, and approved
the purchase.
Pokorny filed suit again, this time
claiming that it would be a health hazard
to use the land for sewage lagoons because
of the danger of flooding.
Pokorny lost the second lawsuit, and
has asked for a new ruling.
The split between Pokorny and Wagner
dates back further than the city's land pur
chase last year.
In 1974, Wagner supported a new
airport in Schuyler, Pokorny said. Wagner
was backing the airport philosophically,
but not financially, Pokorny said.
Pokorny said he was against the airport
from the start because there's an all
weather airport 12 miles away from
Schuyler.
The proposed airport would just have
consisted of grass strips for runways, he
said.
Pokorny said Wagners influence in
Schuyler swayed the city council in favor
of a new airport.
Wagner associates were on the city
council and the Board of Public Works,
Pokorny said.
Wagner, however, denies any involve
ment in the airport proposal.
Pokorny denied that he has a vendetta
against Wagner.
"That's not the case," Pokorny said.
"We've had philosophical differences on
these two items, but I really can't think of
anything else that we've had differences
on.
Pokorny said Schuyler residents are
afraid to oppose Wagner, because of his
involvement in area businesses.
"The only problem is, not too many
people are in a position to speak out as I
have, because of Mr. Wagner's influence in
Schuyler. And it probably wasn't too smart
for me to," said Pokorny, who is the son of
another prominent Schuyler businessman.
On July 17, 1960, Wagner received a
presidential pardon for a 1954 conviction
in connection with altering grain scale
tickets.
Wagner has occasionally drawn protest
louder than Pokorny's, for some of his
actions on the Board of Regents.
Wagner said he is still in favor of
building a new stadium for UNL. Adding
to the present stadium is not only costly
but foolish, he said.
