While Cornhusker football players tune them
selves for the Orange Bowi, B13 Hcd retail shops are
gearing up for national championship sales.
One storeis moving riht ahead with "We're
Number One" items, while two others'are somewhat
tentative.
Loraine Livingston, proprietor of Cornhusker
Comer, 701 N. 10th St., said she's selling "We're
Number 1" pennants, cups, mugs, candies and even
Christmas tree bulbs.
"I'm almost out of the bulbs," she said.
Livingston said she also has a lot of Orange Bowl
souvenirs for sale. Asked if she weren't a little wor

after their first semester
at college. UNL experts
suggest ways to help ease
the adjustment
John Woodward, as
sociate dean at UNL's
College of Home Econ
omics, described the
effects of such changes
on parents. He said prob
lems arise when self
reliant students go home
to parents who are ex

Amount of change usu
ally depends upon where
the student is in his
college career. He said
some college freshmen ex
perience a personality

that parents don't ex
pect. Home for the hol
idays, students may try
to challenge their pa
rents' values. This is
where the problems be
gin, Woodward said.
Woodward said it is
healthy for students to
grow and mature emo
tionally while at college,
but the family is never
the same after students
go to college.
Woodward said stu
dents should realize
parents are still parents,
and they will eipect their
children to respect and
obey them as in the past.
He advised students to
spend time with their pa
rents to get reccquaint
ed. He said students
should accept the situa
tion the way it is at home
and not try to change
people.
Vernon Williams, di
rector of the UNL Coun
seling Center, said pa
rents become frustrated
because they can't relate
to children as they did
before. Parents still ex
pect to regulate their
child's behavior, he said,
even though the child
has become more in
dependent and mature.
Williams said students
also should be patient
when dealing with their
home-town friends, be
cause these friends pro

changed.

said she has some "We're Number 1" shirts ordered,
but if Nebraska doesn't win, she won't get the shirts.
"The printer wont make them until the day after
(the Orange Eowl) " she said.
The Big Red Shop has just one Orange Bowl shirt
for sale, Ternes said, adding that her store usually
gets souvenirs that didnt sell in Miami and sells
them after the game.
"Once we're national champs, some new things
will come out," she said. "It's not that I'm not confi
dent. We just dont want to put thejLnx on 'me."

manager Mark Oppergard said the store only has
one pin with that slogan in stock. However, he said
many items are on order, depending on the outcome

Oppegard said he expects increased business if
the Huskers should capture the national crown,
although he's not sure just how large that increase
will be.
"I talked to some people at Penn State and at
Georgia," he said. "Some say business will double,
others say itH be 25 percent more. The biggest dif
