Tournament tops off
orientation week
About" CO foreign students from around the
world braved 100-degree temperatures Friday to
participate in the International Students' Games
Tournament on the Mabel Lee Hall Athletic Field.
The games wrapped up a week of orientation
for international students studying at UNL this
semester. The program was sponsored by Inter
national Educational Services, Nebraska Union
345. ,
Sack races, three-legged relays and other con
tests provided a day of fun for new students.
Saeed Bahramzad, a senior industrial engi
neering major from Iran and orientation assist-
ant, said he was glad to see so many graduate
students at the tournament. He said 40 percent
of the foreign students at UNL are graduate stu
dents this year.
Olaf Keese, a junior finance majorsaid he
enjoyed the time he shared with the other stu
dents, despite the heat.
Keese is studying here on a one-year Fulbright
Scholarship from West Germany.
There are people from so many different
nations here," he said. "If we could talk to each
other like this (in the real world), I think it would
be great."
Police warn citizens
of impersonators, fraud,
suspicious phme calls
By Lauri Hopple
The Animal Control section of the Lincoln
Lancaster County Health Department and the Lin
coln Police Department are warning citizens to
beware of people impersonating Animal Control
officers.
In the past two months, there .have been four
reports of impersonations by phone as well as in
person, said Jim Weverka, animal control
supervisor.
v Most of the imposters claimed to be conducting a
survey for the Humane Society.
In some cases, police suspect that homes were
being cased for potential burglaries, Severka said.
No burglaries have been reported to the police as a
result of the impersonations, however.
Information Officer Lt. Al Maxey of the Lincoln
police said there has been one report of an illegal
line couecuon. An Animal control officer imposter
allegedly collected $25 from a Lincoln woman after
telling the woman that her dog was barking too
loudly. There are no suspects in the case or in any of .
the other reported impersonations, he said.
: Weverka said Animal Control officers are not
responsible for collecting fines and that citizens
should be suspicious of anyone trying to collect
money from them. Actual fines would be collected
through the court system after a ticket has been
issued, he said. The only time an officer would col
lect any money would be for fees for such services ass
picking up dead animals or clearing out wildlife.
Weverka said Animal Control officers can be rec
ognized by their brown uniforms with department
identification patches and badges. -
Animal Control personnel who contact Lincoln
citizens bv the ohone will fust ask Hip nprsnn
whether he still has a pet and remind the owner that
the pet must be licensed.
,-m Lincoln Police Lt. William Satterthwaite advises
citizens who get any suspicious sounding phone
calls to hang up or ask the caller for his name and
phone number and then call the number back. Sat
terthwaite said people should keep the information
to help the police track down the caller if the call is
fraudulent.
Maxey said one Lincoln Citizen reported an
attempted credit-card fraud this month also. The
caller posed as a sweepstake's announcer and asked
for the credit-card number so that the winner could
collect the prize. Once such a number is given, the
caller can use it to make long-distance phone calls.
Attempted robberies through fraud such as these
happen only periodically in Lincoln, Maxey said.
"We have yet to have a big problem with it . . he
said.

assembled outside the Malone Community Center,

Whether you realize it or not,
you're probably wearing a type of
"uniform" right now.
There's nothing wrongwith it.
But an Army ROTC uniform could
make you stand out from the crowd.
And ROTC will help you become
more outstnading. Because you'll
develop into a leader of people
and a manager of money and
equipment.
So how about switching "uniforms"
for a few hours each week?
