Hiis US. Postal Service booth soon will be removed from the UNL campus. It will be
replaced by a smaller version, located in the basement of the Nebraska Union on the
north side next to the vending area.
Postal machine carries on
following mail center closing
The list of what's new at the Nebraska
Union this fall includes a small machine
that doesn't look, like much, but should be
come a popular stop for students and
faculty.
"The postal machine is really quite an
amazing thing," said Frank Kuhn, assistant
union director.
"Students will be able to get a lot more
done with their mail here than they have
before," he said.
The Self Service Stamp Machine is
about the size of a vending machine, and
is next to the University Bookstore. It can
distribute stamp booklets, envelopes and
post cards. It also has air mail and
aerogram envelopes as well as express mail.
The machine has listings of postage rates
from first to third class. A similar machine
has already been in service at the East
Union for a year, and its popularity there
should be repeated on city campus, Kuhn
said.
The stamp machine should be of added
value to the area because of the scheduled
closing of the mail center in the northwest
corner of the Selleck parking lot. With that
center gone, the union's stamp machine
will be the only one with its capabilities on
the city campus, Kuhn said.

Lincoln city ordinance
limits fireworks sales
A Lincoln city ordinance passed Aug. 17 will restrict
the sale of fireworks to July 3 and 4, and to persons
18 and older.
Mike Steinman, Lincoln City Council member, said he
had heard a lot of concern about the use of fireworks.
"I feel if we can restrict the use of fireworks to those
18 and over we will make progress toward health and
safety," Steinman said.
Steinman made ammendments to an original proposal
by Councilman Eric Youngberg to ban all fireworks sales,
Fireworks vendors who are caught selling to minors
will not be able to renew their sales permits, Steinman
said.
Fat Egan of Egan Enterprises Inc., said he believes
fireworks related injuries will increase with the ordinance
because of illegal sales of M-80's and "inch-and-a-halfs."
"It's really terrible they banned the lady finger,"
Egan said. "It's the only thing we had that went bang.
You can hold them in your hand and it doesn't hurt.
It's a joke, a sad jQke," he said. '
Egan said he was not worried about selling the tire
works because he said he thought he could seD as many
in the two days as in the past. He said he was worried
because the ordinance will keep people from celebrating
the holiday.
"If you take away the legal sales there will be boot
leggers and I bet their business will increase 1,000 per
cent." "The distributors in Missouri and South Dakota will
be tickled to death," he said.
Impromptlines to play
The Impromtunes will give a free concert of improvised
music at 4 p.m., Aug. 30, in the State Capitol Rotunda.
The unstructured instrumental concert will be open to
the public.
The intrumental trio features Jett Johnson at the
drums, Henry Wells playing bass and Pierre Batiste playing
the saxophone. The one-hour concert will also include
poetry and lyrics by Gill Scott Heron, Billie Holiday, and
Cole Porter. The Impromtunes, a new group, perform
throughout the Lincoln area.
