Husker swimmer Gary Peters cuts through the water during the Mid Winter Swimming Invitational held in Lincoln
last week. The Huskers lost to Kansas and Missouri last weekend, but qualified three divers for the NCAA
Championship meet.
3 UNL divers make national times
The UNL men's swimming and diving team qualified
three divers for the National Collegiate Athletic
Association championships in a dual with Missouri Satur
day. :
Although Nebraska lost the meet 80-33, the divers
proved that Diving , Coach Jeff Huber made a good
decision in letting diver Steve Elliott miss the meet to
compete with the gymnastics team in Lincoln .
"Letting Elliott ro home proved to be a good decision
by Coach Huber," Mead Swimming Coach Cal Bentz said.
"Those divers got to qualify and received some recogni
tion "he said.
Elliott is the Huskers' leading diver, as well as the
gymnastics team's, top vaulter and floor exercise
competitor.
Scott Hinrichs won the one-meter diving competition
with 522.75 points, qualifying for the NCAA champion
ships and setting a new pool record at Missouri. He also
won the three-meter diving event with 505.70 points
which also qualified him nationally in that event.
Todd Bendkowski placed third on the one-meter board
with 495.20 points and second on the three-meter board
with 504 .65 -both NCAA qualifying scores.
Lance Green placed second on the one-meter board
with 498 JO points and also qualified for nationals.
Husker Anders Rutqvist was the only winner for the
swimming team. He placed first in the 1 ,000 meter free
style and set a new school record with a time of 9:4734.
The Huskers' next home meets will be Friday night
against Northern Illinois and Saturday against Iowa State
at the Bob Devaney Sports Center.
Dining room expanding capacity
By Lori McGinnis
The Colonial Dining Room in the Nebraska Union has
expanded its seating by 50 since the neighboring Pewter
Room was opened to accommodate extra customers,
according to Daryl Swanson, director of the Nebraska
Unions.
The daily customer count in the Colonial Room has
increased from 70 to 90 since the closing of the UNL
Faculty Club cafeteria in the Alumni House Dec. 14, he
said. ,
Because of the closing, some faculty club members
needed a place to meet for Junch. Swanson agreed to open
the Pewter Room Jan. 14 to accommodate their needs.
But, he said the Pewter Room will not be a private faculty
club room.
The room was opened "in order to accommodate the
expected influx of people. But it's not a private dining
room solely for the use of the faculty club," Swanson
said.
Swanson said the restaurant's customers are mostly
UNL faculty and administrative staff.
Private luncheons
Before the Pewter Room was opened for customer
service, it was used one to two hours a day for private
luncheons and meetings, Swanson said.
The only additional expense in using the room for
restaurant service will be from hiring two more waitresses,
Swanson said.
Customers can choose to sit in either the Colonial
Room or the Pewter Room. The kitchen is between with
a separate doorway into each room. The customers can't
go-from one room to the other without walking into the"
hallway, Swanson said.
Converting the two rooms into one is a possibility,
he said, at a cost of $50,000. However, it would destroy
the decor of the Pewter Room, which Swanson said he is
reluctant to do. The Pewter Room, built in 1938, is the
only original room left in the union..-
Financial loss
The Colonial Dining Room has been operating at a
financial loss for the past 10 years, Swanson said, with
annual losses ranging from 55,000 to breaking even.
Swanson said it remains to be seen whether the additional
customers will boost the restaurant's income.
"We're optimistic," he said, "but it's too early to de
termine if it's going to help us financially,'' he said.
Losses from the Colonial Room and other union rest
aurants are subsidized by student fees, Swanson said.
"Food service operations in both unions, a $1.2 million
operation, lost $50,000 during the last fiscal year.
Swanson said he hopes all operations will break even
by June 30, 1981; The Colonial Room represents 3 per
cent of the union food services income. If it continues to
, operate at a loss, the Colonial Room may close. ,
Swanson said the idea of closing the Colonial Room
has been discussed, but no plans have been made.
"Its future is not ensured," he said.

Nominations are open
Nominations are being accepted for the 1980 Awards
for Outstanding Research and Creative Activity. The
awards are in recognition of research or activities of
national significance conducted by UNL faculty members.
To be eligible for the award, each nominee must have
done a major part of the work on which the nomination
is based at UNL, and must still be engaged in research or
other creative work at UNL.
Nominations may be submitted and seconded by any
full-time UNL faculty members. For purposes of the
award, the faculty will be divided into two groups, each
group composed of three of the six academic areas repre
sented on the Executive Graduate Council.
The academic areas in each group will be considered
for nomination, but an award need not be made to either
group, and no more than three awards may be made to
any one group in any one year.
Award recipients are selected by a six-member commit
tee composed of one representative from each academic
area. The dean of the Graduate College selects the com
mittee members from among the members of the graduate
faculty to serve a two-year term.
The committee decides on the criteria for the awards,
and will publish them on the nomination forms. Only
one award may be given for a particular piece of research
or creative activity.
Six complete copies of each nomination should be
submitted before Feb. 25 to the chairman of the commit'
tee and sent to 226 Regents Hall, 3835 Holdrege, Lincoln,
Nebraska 68583.
Up to four awards of $1 ,000 each will be given.
