It's a Soft Shell Sale that's hard
to beat: But not hard to eat.
By Patty Pryor
All those cheering basketball fans aren't looking
for just a Big Eight championship from their Huskers
they also want to cash in on a free runza offer
printed on the back of the tickets.
In an agreement with UNL, the Lincoln Runza
Drive Inns of America is offering a free runza if the
Huskers hold their opponents to 50 points or less, or
free onion rings if it s 60 points or less.
There's been a tremendous response," said Linda
Dennis, supervisor with the Runza general office.
"Customers like the idea. They seem very excited
and thrilled when they come in."
Dennis said the Runza management is just as
pleased with the deal. Even though no exact figures
were available on the number of giveaways so far,
the offer no doubt has a positive effect on business,
she said.
"Even if they're getting something free," Dennis
said, "they're not going to drive all the way across
town just for that."
Customer orders usually include more than just
the free item, she explained.
In exchange for this additional business and
advertising, Runza Drive Inns agreed to pay the
costs of ticket makeup and printing, which were set
in a bid put out by the university's business service
hofrrr thp start of the season.
"Each year, we go out and prepare a bid and send
.it out to various places, mostly restaurants and
businesses," said Ron Bromley, UNL buyer for pur
chasing in business services. "Surprisingly, we get
very few replies."
Of 30 inquiries sent out this basketball season,
only two bids were received, Bromley said.
In addition to Runza's winning bid, the university
also received a bid from Commerce Savings of Lin
coln, which has offered blue stamps on the back of
university football tickets four out of the last five
years, Bromley said.
With 18 home games and the playoffs, the ticket
offer potentially reached 170,000 people, Bromley
said. All 20 Runza locations in Nebraska participate
in the deal.
Bromley said it was difficult to determine why
more businesses don't reply.
"I don't know if the information is not getting into
the right hands, or if they just don't think it's worth
it," he said. "We're trying to follow that up."
Even with the success of the basketball ticket
offer, Dennis said, it is doubtful that Runza Drive
Inns will bid for the football season.
"The cost for that is out of our reach," Dennis said.
"For that, we'd need more than just our Lincoln
stores in on it."
UNL students pay more for meals
By Mike Wcibcl
UNL residence hall stud-,
ents pay $1050 each year
for 20 meals a week. Yet,
students at Kearney State
Collegeoruypay$772,$318
or $852 for 10, 15 or 20
meals, respectively.
Gary Partridge, UNL a
ssistant housing director,
said UNL's plan takes the
absentee factor into ac
count. The average stu
dent does not eat all three
meals a day, he said.
According to the ab
sentee factor, Partridge
said, students currently
miss about 40 percent of
their meals.
Thus the average resi
dence hall student last
year ate about 1.7 meals
a day and 11.3 meals a
week. Partridge said stu
dents are charged for that
average, not the 20 meals
a week.
Although some schools
try to save students money
by offering three-meal
plans, Partridge said, the
fewer number of meals in
each plan lowers the ab
sentee factor. Thus, stu-
aur r -tf ar w w hp' r sbf r w w 'W i& i& tif tfr $
dents will miss fewer
meals, and prices will in
crease, he said.
Wayne State College off
ers three different meal
plans to its residents: 10
meals a week for $876 a
year, 15 for $978 and 19
for $1014.

are less than UNL's, Par
tridge said, students are
paying nearly 90 percent
of the 20-meal price for
only one-half of the meals.
Partridge said he doesn't
believe students worry too
much about missing meals.
Of 360 residence hall
student responses last
year, Partridge said, no
more than four students
said missing meals was a
concern.
Partridge said the hous
ing department tries to
; offer as much quantity
and quality' as it can to
please as many people as
possible.
Colloquia series diverse
Guest professors from universities
throughout the United States, as well
as overseas, are scheduled to speak
during the chemistry department's collo
quia series this semester. The series
will cover diverse topics, ranging from
physical chemistry and geochemistry
to the topic for today, "Stereochemical
Aspects of Enzymatic Phosphoryl Trans
fer Reactions." Perry Frey, a professor
from the University of Wisconsin, will
deliver today's speech.
UNL professor Sheldon Schuster, an
enzymologist, said this week's topic is
fairly specialized. The last colloquium
will be May 4, with about one per week
until ther.
Other lectures will cover topics that
apply not only to chemistry majors,
but to engineers and physics majors
also, Schuster said.
Stuart Staley, a coordinator for next
year's colloquia, said that although
talks pertain mainly to chemistry stu
dents, they can tie in with agriculture,
computers or many other scientific
fields. Also, students and teachers from
Nebraska Wesleyan University and O- 1
maha colleges and people working in
commercial laboratories often attend,
he said.
Possible speakers are chosen through
faculty suggestions, but an appointed
committee makes the final selections.
Also, a student organization chooses
one lecturer, so that everyone helps
determine who speaks iivthe colloquia,
Staley said.
"Our program is not a unique one,
but we try to do it writh a little more
class," Staley said. "Our location is a
disadvantage. Some research chemis
try departments have a speaker in
every department every week. How
ever, we thing we have a very active
program, a public resource, and we
encourage others to take advantage of
it."
