' Lincoln remains in step with the popu
lar trends in music and lights, and several
UNL students are involved in owning and
managing sound system businesses of their
own.
Dazzlin Disco provides music and lights
at high school and college activities,
picnics, weddings and any other kind of
party.
Jeff Engels, a computer science major,
minoring in music, manages the business.
Byron Schmidt, Gary Schmidt, Gary
Shinn, Mike Harms, and Chris Barton are
partners in Dazzlin' Disco, and all are
originally from Fairbury, except Barton,
who attends college there.
We wanted to get the kids off the
streets. Fairbury has nothing to do," said
Byron Schmidt. "It was also a good way to
go on road trips and meet people."
Engels said they are versatile, and work
both indoors and outdoors. They also play
what people will dance to, he said.
Engels said they use mostly albums,
and some tapes. Pop, disco and country
western are favorite requests.
Bootlegger Sound and Light System is a
portable disco system managed by Dan
Lindstrom, a sophomore Animal Science
major from Loomis, and his brother Troy,
a freshman, who is undeclared.
During the summer of 1978, the elder
Lindstrom and two friends decided to get
involved in the sound system business. One
of his friends bought loti of good equip,
ment and by January they were ready. The
spring and summer were busy, but in
October they quit the business.
The Lindstroms are now in the process
of buying back the equipment.
Lindstrom said the base price for a four
hour dance is SI 50, which is still about
half the price of a band. They handle just
about any type of dance, including Greek
theme parties, and dorm floor and high
school parties, he said.
The college groups .want a good balance
between rock and disco, he said. Usually
they mix in some country and western,
50s, and even some polka music, depending
on the crowd, he said. There is less demand
for disco music here in Lincoln than there
was even a year ago. However, disco is
popular right now in the night clubs,
especially with the older, post -college
people.
Nutritional snacks can be
tasty, can also cut calories
By Lori Merryman
When making party snacks, alfalfa
sprouts and yogurt can be used to make
nutritional, tasty food.
Theresa Shaffer, extension specialist in
food and nutrition, said these are better al
ternatives than the usual chips and dip.
Shaffer said chips are on her disaster list
because of the high amounts of sodium, fat
and calories contained in them .
Yogurt makes a good dip for crackers,
vegetables or just about anything dipable,
Shaffer said.
One dip that's easy and good, Shaffer
said, is made by mixing a carton of plain or
vanilla yogurt with small amounts of
honey, to taste. For added contrast in tex
ture and color, sesame or poppy seeds can
be added, she said.
"Using yogurt as a base for a dip is few
er calories and less expensive, and it is just
as versatile," Shaffer said.
A snack that has a lot of nutritional
value, yet is crunchy and tasty too, Shaffer
said, is seed sprouts. Alfalfa sprouts and
bean sprouts are not the only edible
sprouts, Shaffer said. Any seed that has not
been treated for planting can produce ed
ible sprouts, she said.
Sprouts are easy to prepare, Shaffer
said: just wash and dry. They can be eaten
alone, put in salads, used on sandwiches in
place of lettuce, or used on crackers with
cheese.
If seed sprouts and yogurt are too new
for the taste buds, Shaffer said a lot can be
done with fruit and vegetables.
With warmer weather here, she suggest
ed trying a frozen fruit slush. To make,
mix together various fresh fruits and add
Seven-Up. Freeze the mixture in dessert
dishes, and then allow to soften before
serving.
Fresh pineapple cut and served in the
half shell is also a good party snack,
Shaffer said.
One other snack that can be fun to
make, but more time consuming is home
made pretzels, Shaffer said. Using frozen
bread, one-can make eight of the large
chewy pretzels from one loaf, she said.
To make, follow the package instruc
tions on the frozen bread " for thawing.
. Then divide into equal parts and form into
pretzel shapes. Next, add one tablespoon
of baking soda to two quarts boiling water
and drop pretzels in this mixture for one
minute.
Beat together one egg with a little
water. After removing the pretzels from
the water, brush egg mixture on top. Add
salt or seeds, and bake at 350 degrees for
15 to 18 minutes.
