Gov. Charles Thone, in a speech to more
than 250 people at the 1982 Greek Awards
Banquet Thursday, said he felt fraternities
nurture the intellectual, physical, and spiri
tual parts of students.
"You, as students, can gain basic tools
for success later as you go on, in some re
spects, to a cold, cruel world," he said.
Thone said the fraternity system has be
come an American institution to develop
working cooperation for a common pur
pose. After school these students "emerge
as America's leaders," Thone said. 'These
leaders will lend strength to others."
Thone said "every national fraternity
and sorority is founded on a high set of
lfilime ?inrl nrinrin1 " Til mil oh firftek
systems students can gain the virtues of
U loyalty, fellowship and integrity to satis-
fy the inner soul. "If you don't do this,
:
(satisfy the inner soul)," he said,"you
don't have much."
Thone said he was informed by Jack
Anson, president of the National Inter
fraternity Conference, that the 200-year-old
fraternity system is "healthy and
growing."
He said the Greek systems have sur
vived the 1960s and other troubled times
because fraternities stand for something
important.
He reminded students that they will
always cherish the valuable relationships
they now share with one another and with
leaders such as Jayne Wade Anderson, who
makes UNL's Greek system one of the best
in the nation. Thone also cited Anderson's
helpers, Sharon Ash and Rachel Jensen as
assets to the system.
Thone urged Greek members to work
with and for the Greek system.

Auction slated
to sell trucks,
cars Saturday
UNL's inventory depart
ment will auction off some
of its older cars and trucks
Saturday.
Michael Cacak, manager
of the UNL auto rental
pool, said two types of
vehicles will be for sale:
passenger vehicles, which
have had an average of 5
years use or 80,000 miles,
and utility vans and pick
ups, which have become
"uneconomical to own" be
cause of repairs.
"We keep vans for eight
to 10 years," he said. "We
like to keep those for as
long as possible."
He said the auto pool has
about 380 vehicles and has,
on the average, about 50
cars for sale each year. This
year the auto pool will have
about the same number at
the sale, along with 10 more
vehicles owned by other
departments.
He said faculty members
use the vehicles the most,
the best sedans going to
those who do a lot of travel
ing. Cacak said the university
purchases all of its vehicles
by accepting the lowest bid
from all car companies who
make offers to UNL.
"All car makers have a
chance," he said. "All
vehicles are purchased by
the lowest bid that year. We
don't have an on-going con
tract with any particular car
company."
Cacak said rhe vehicles
are bought with the money
earned from the auctioning
of other cars.
"We replace the cars we
auction with new ones," he
said. "We only sell what is
needed to sell."
Cacak said the auction is
something the state requir
es. "Any other vehicles the
state wants to sell are sold
through an auction," he
said. "Students can really
pick up a bargain if they are
interested in buying a used
car.
The auction beings at 10
a.m. at the State Fair
grounds Midway.
