Be careful not to drop anything down the cracks between the stones and as you leave; be a little thankful for rjrphalt, Just across 0th Street from the alley stands the City Mission. The brochure said the building was originally a brothel owned by Lydia Stewart. She willed that the building be given to the city upon her death "so that her customers could continue using it." I could go on and on about Lincoln's wonders, but why spoil future explorations? With the brochure, and a few good friends, history becomes light and enjoyable. This is one reason why the brochure was made, said Jeanne Bacr, assistant director of the Conven tion and Visitors Bureau. Baer said she spent two years studying Lincoln and learning its stories. Baer said that tours are for Lincoln tourists, and also residents. She said the brochure will be sent to people looking for a convention center and may draw people to the city because it makes Lincoln look like a safe, walkable place. The brochures are free and will be available at the Tourist Information office at the corner of 9th and 0 streets between May 27 and Sept. 13. t v - i !

'1 1 I LtTy wri sin ARTS COMMITTEE RAIN5ITE; NEBRASKA UNION MAIN LOUNGE ' - Engineers honor UNL senior UNL senior Mark Davidson last week was named the outstanding industrial engineering student in the nation by a national committee of industrial engine ers. Davidson, a 21-year-old industrial engineering major from McCook, will take center stage and claim his award along with a $300 first-place prize at the Institute of Industrial Engineers national convention, in Chicago May 6 toll. "It's pretty exciting to be going to Chicago to receive this award," David son said. "I feel fortunate 'to have received good instruction at UNL" But the trip to Chicago didn't hap pen overnight, he said. After being select ed to represent UNL in the national competition, Davidson filled out a de tailed application form, he said. The application included questions about participation in HE and hobbies and asked for three letters of recommen dation from university officials. Also, he said, the application asked about the student's participation in extra curricular activities and grade point average. Davidson said his university activi ties helped impress the Atlanta-based selection committee. Boasting a 3.9 GPA and having participated in New Student Orientation, the Innocents Society and UNL Student Alumni As sociation, Davidson was selected from about 65 university students across the nation. Davidson, also a Farm house fraternity member, said his ded ication to the UNL chapter of HE for which he served as president and over saw the HE regional conference in Lin coln last month, helped him earn the award. Winning the award was not a total surprise, Davidson said. As a junior, he was selected as one of six national winners of the HE Dwight Gardener award, which won him a $1,500 prize. "I thought I did have a chance to win this year," he said. "And I heard rum ors before I was notified that I won, because the department chairman was notified earlier than I was. "I had such great support from UNL faculty and students," Davidson said. He said four other UNL students have received the HE Dwight Gardener award. "UNL helped me keep a good perspective." Shortly after Davidson leaves Chi cago, he will marry Cindy Sayler, a UNL senior from Omaha. After the wed .ding, the couple will move to Kansas City, where Davidson has already ac cepted a job with Hallmark Cards Cor poration as an industrial engineer for the corporate engineering depart 6 WFFW JXJ ILILa w 12 PRICE DRINKS MON.-THURS. wstudsnt ID.
