Monday, January 23, 1934 Daily Ncbraskan Pago 5 A CT SDN settles on new looll site The Jlssociation of Students of the University of Nebraska Electoral Commission added Nebraska Hall as a third polling place to make the ASUN elections more accessible to residence hall and off campus students. The decision was made at an Electoral Commis sion meeting Thursday at the Nebraska Union. RHA representatives said they were concerned with the voting convenience of residence hall stu dents. John Christian, Residence Hall Association executive assistant, said residence hall students are highly concentrated on campus and rarely go to the Union except at the start of the year. Therefore, residence hall students must go out of their way to vote. RHA representative David Clopton said there is a negative perception of the removal of the booths from the residence halls. RHA Vice President Dave Edwards said although the commission had made a good decision, initially students will have a bad reaction. Lucy Buntain, an English instructor and an elec toral commission member, said the commission is an autonomous body trying to run a fair and effi cient election. Less than one-fourth of the students eligible to vote live in residence halls, she said, and when a shcrtcge cf staffing and funding required the elimination of sites, the 16,000 off-campus stu dents were given priority. Another commission member, Jerry Pctr, an economics professor, said polling places in the residence halls might skew vot ing unfairly to its residents. Petr proposed Nebraska Hall as a third polling booth since it is between Abel-Sandoz, Harper-Schramm-Smith and off , campus students who might be in the area. Gary Aurand, an RHA representative, said it was unfortunate that voting can not be done in the halls However, the electoral commission made a good attempt to accommodate all students in their final decision, he said.

The provisions of the bill include viability and a defini tion of birth. In its original language, most of the provisions were found unconstitutional by U.S. Dis trict Judge Warren Urbom. As a result, Labedz has changed the language of the bilL "Nebraska has had a difficult time fighting abor tion because of UrbonVs decision," she said. The bill was voted out of committee op the same afternoon it was presented and has strong support in the Legislature, Labedz said. Although attendance was down from past marches, Julie Lostroh, chairperson for the 1984 Walk for Life, said despite the cold temperatures, the march was a success. " Even with the success of the Lincoln Walk for Life , and similar marches which took place across the country, Lostroh said she does not see a change in the nation's abortion laws in the near future. "Not with the Congress we have," she said. Too many people are not educated well enough about abortion." . , v.?... - TT Jo ' 69 l I CQ.'Sl CT.1Z FJ-ZA Ct :S.".C'3S I I Whole-wheat lover's if s here!
