UNL journal promotes health
Belief in total Wellness" and practicing a health
ier lifestyle could prevent 66 percent of the fatal
diseases afflicting Americans today, according to
the editor of the national Wellness Perspectives
journal.
Nick St innett, who also is chairman of UNL's home
economics department, said wellness is a relatively
new concept. Despite this, it has attracted insu
rance companies and businesses that could benefit
from preventing employee and client illness. Insu
rance companies, Stinnett said, promote wellness
because healthy clients have to pay fewer claims.
Businesses promote it to have more productive
workers and less absenteeism, he said.
For the individual, Stinnett said, total wellness
means becoming healthier in five ways: Physically,

UNL engineering students
get great gas mileage
A team of UNL students took fourth place and set
a new United States amateur gas mileage record in
mileage trials at the 1934 Super Mileage Competi
tion in Marshall, Mich., this weekend.
The UNL car, with a light-weight, high-strength,
unibody took first placdin design, the design phase
of the compet ition. Team member Dan Gee said the
car, at 60 pounds, was 18 pounds lighter than all the
other entries. The body of the shiny blue car was
molded from aircraft materials donated by Bruns
wick Corporation of Lincoln.
The returning champions from the University of
Saskatchewan modified their 1983 entry to take
first place in the mileage trials with a mileage of
1 ,994 miles per gallon, and took second place with a
car they developed after the 1983 competition.
Another Canadian team took third place.
The UNL team achieved a gas mileage of 1,085.5
mpg's. They fell short of their goal of 2,000 mpg, but'
far surpassed their 1983 mileage of 554.3 mpg.
The students received $50 for their fourth-place
finish. Team member Scott Hansen said the car itself
cost about $800 and was financed by donations
from local businesses and organizations and by
UNL
Other team members are Ron Schmitt, Bruce
Burnside, and Terry Stromberg. Stromberg drove
the car in the mileage trials. All are mechanical
engineering students. George Schade, an associate
professor of mechanical engineering, was the team's
faculty adviser.

Micelle intercept
a first for-tlie U.S.
WASHINGTON The United States for the
first time successfully destroyed a test missile
outside the earth's atmosphere with another
missile, Defense Department officials said Mon
day. They said Sunday's successful interception
of one missile by another followed three earlier
failures. Army Chief of Information MaJ. Gen.
Lyle Barker told reporters, This w&3 the first
known missile intercept not only for the United
States but for the world."
The aim of the test, "Homing Overlay Experi
ment" is to develop a non-nuclear weapon able
to knock down Soviet missiles outside the
atmosphere at least 60 miles above the
earth, defense officials said.
31 dead in Beirut shelling
BEIRUT At least 3 1 people were killed and
120 wounded in and around Beirut Monday in
the worst day of shelling since heavy fighting
between Moslem and Christian forces last
February, radio reports said. The bombardment
climaxed weekend fighting and shelling signal
ling mounting frustration among the rival
forces at the prolonged political impasse. It
also came as newspapers reported a spate of
rumors that all sides were preparing for a
heavy outbreak of fighting some time around
June 15.
Berlinguer dead at 6,
PADUA, Italy Enrico Berlinguer, 62, who
led the biggest Communist party in the West
away from Soviet influence but failed to get it
into power in Italy, died Monday four days
after a stroke sent him into an irreversible
coma. The death of Berlinguer, who, in 1972
took over the largest Communist party in
Western Europe and Italy's second biggest
party, touched a chord in most Italians. Even
his political enemies hailed him as a man of
integrity.
Italy's President Sandro Pertini said he would
take Berlinguer's body with him to Rome on
the presidential plane for burial Wednesday. "I
will carry him with me, as a fraternal brother,
as a son, as a companion in the struggle," the
87-year-old Socialist president told reporters.
House outlaws pirating
WASHINGTON The House of Representa
tives Monday unanimously voted to outlaw
pirating of computer microchips, a practice
which U.S.. makers of semiconductor chips
have charged is costing millions and threatens
to destroy their worldwide lead in the elec
tronics industry. The semiconductor chip is
the brain of modern electronics in computers,
automobiles, robots and a wide range of goods.
The House voted to grant 10 years of copyright
protection to microchip "mask works" used to
direct the electronic circuitry onto the silicon
chip. A similar bill passed the Senate earlier
this year and both have the administration's
support.
Court votes change rule
WASHINGTON - The U.S. Supreme Court
ruled 7-2 Monday that illegally obtained evi
dence could be admitted in criminal trials if
police would "inevitably obtain such evidence
by legal means. It was the court's first decision
on an issue involving the so-called exclusionary
rule which prohibits the admission of illegally
obtained evidence in criminal proceedings.
The Reagan administration has been urging
the court to relax the rule, arguing it has
helped criminals escape punishment and has
contributed to an escalation in crime. The high
court is considering broader cases involving
the rule and is expected to rule on them by
July. .
Chief Justice Warren Burger, writing the
opinion for the court, said the purpose behind
barring illegally obtained evidence in criminal
trials was to deter police misconduct But he
said, "If the prosecution can establish by a
preponderance of the evidence that the infor
mation ultimately cr inevitably would have
been discovered by lawful means . . . then the
tttn'Cist rttiiuuoid has little basis.
