I nvia Bowl contains variety, stirs interest
By Jcdl Nyrcn
It's not the Orange Bowl, the Rose Bowl or the
Sugar BowL It's the UNL Trivia BowL
Sponsored by the Residence Hall Association, the
Trivia Bowl was created by RILYs Social Program
ming Committee, said Shelley Wolfe, the committee
chairperson.
The idea originated, Wolfe said, when she disco
vered information on a trivia bowl in her social file.
Although trivia bowl information existed, Wolfe
said, her committee had never heard of an RIIA
Trivia BowL
The bowl is divided into seven categories: sports,
history, geography, science, art and literature, enter
tainment and potpourri (miscellaneous). The com
mittee found approximately 700 questions, Wolfe

After five sheep producers' programs next week,
no one will be able to pull the wool over sheep
producers' eyes.
Dr. Ted Doane, extension sheep specialist for
UNL, will speak during the programs about using
gene resources, parasite control and computer pro
grams for sheep production.
The programs, which will be March 5 through 9,
should give sheep producers information about
research and production techniques.
Doane will speak about parasites that decrease
the income of sheep producers. He also will show
w hat treatments are available and how to prevent
parasites.
The Roman L. Hruska Meat Animal Research Cen
ter, based in Clay Center; has begun using the Aus
tralian "Booroolas" sheep bred to increase lambing
percentage, Doane said. Dr. Larry Young of the
Hruska MARC will discuss the Australian breed's
potentialln Nebraska sheep herds.
Dr. Bill Zollinger, extension livestock specialist for
UNL, will discuss how sheep producers can use new
mini-computer techniques and the AGNET system
to manage sheep operations.
The AGNET system is a university-based informa
tion network that supplies agricultural data by
computer nationwide. -
All of the programs begin, with registration at 9:30
a.m. and will adjourn around 3:30 p.m. A lamb lun
cheon will be served at each location around noon.
The Nebraska programs will be at: Kimball
March 5; Imperial March 6; Grand Island
March 7; O'Neill March 8; and Fremont March
9.
Doane said he expects 50 to 100 people at each
location.
AAUP support...

But, the KU regents seemingly intervened by dis
continuing some programs and changing specific
conditions of employment. Faculty "reacted with
great concern and anguish," Goodman said.
Goodman said collective bargaining would not be
attained at KU because of economic issues on the
Lawrence campus. But it could be attained from the
erosion of thelnstitutional autonomy." He said if
rights and privileges decreased, the faculty would
have more interest in collective bargaining.
Since collective bargaining is illegal in Missouri,
the University of Missouri faculty members "don't
really consider it " said Gordent Kimber, Missouri's
AAUP president and professor of agronomy.
The Missouri AAUP has not been directly involved
in administrative policy-making, Kimber said. But
he said he anticipates more faculty pressure on the
administration because of a proposed program to
cut departments on the Columbia campus.
Kimber said a similar plan proposed two years
ago was abondoned due to pressure from AAUP and
other faculty without collective bargaining.
An inactive, unorganized AAUP and "no real dis
content" among faculty were two reasons John
Fowler, former AAUP president, said collective bar
gaining had not been adopted at the University of
Colorado.
Fowler, an associate professor of physical educa
tion, said collective bargaining was discussed at
Colorado three years ago and has been voted down
by faculty members twice since then. He said most of
the older, establisned professors were comfortable
with the present situation and did not see the need
for collective bargaining.
However, because of a new post tenure review
program in which instructors are reviewed by their
peers every five to seven years after tenure to help
improve their teaching, Fowler said if the issue of
collective bargaining were raised, AAUP members
would be quick to support it.
said. Many of the questions came from trivia books,
almanacs and the Trivial Pursuits game, she said.
The group began searching for the questions dur
ing Christmas break, Wolfe said. Once they returned
to school, she said, the committee formed the rules,
advertised, typed up questions and organized the
event.
( "It's been a lot more work than we thought it
would be," Wolfe said, "but I think it's worth it."
The committee's efforts proved successful, Wolfe
said. The event was so popular that the committee
had to extend Thursday's schedule to fit 20 teams.
The team members came from a variety of living
areas, Wolfe said, but each team of four had to have
at least one hall resident.
The preliminary and quarter-finals were Thurs
day. During each match, two teams faccd-off. A
match consisted of 25 questions. The questions were
divided between two rounds. In the first round, each
team attempted to answer five questions. If a team
failed to answer correctly, the question was thrown
out of the match. During the second round, cither
team could answer the 15 questions, depending on
which team rang the bell first. When one team an
swered incorrectly, the other team got a chance to
answer.
Thursday's matches were closed to the public, but
Friday's semi-finals and finals are open to the pub
lic. The matches will be 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. in the
Nebraska Union Georgian Suite.
The winning team will receive $100 and the
runner-up team will receive $50.
