New federal fundo
to aid UNL stadents
By llzxc Simon
The U. S. Department' of Education recently
granted $97,419 to UNL to start a program to help
disadvantaged and minority-group students at UNL
James Smith, director of the Office of Multi-Cultural
Affairs said. The program will aid minority, handi
capped and low-income students.
The program will consist of a counselingtutoring
program for students who need a little extra help to
graduate, Smith said.
Because of budget limitations, a maximum of 350
people will be selected for the program, Smith said.
To be selected, students must go through staff inter
views, he said.
Those selected will work closely with several
counselors, Smith said. Some of the counselors will
help students with traditional academic subjects,
such as English, mathematics and social sciences,
he said. Other counselors will help with study skills,
including time management. These "study skills
counselors" may diagnose students to help them
with their identified learning problems, he said.
Besides the academic counselors, career devel
opment counselors will help students choose their
careers, Smith said.
Besides learning skills to help them graduate,
students in the program will acquire leadership
skills to use at UNL and in the community, Smith
said. At the university levelhe said, participating
minority students might want to set up a club for
minority business majors which would parallel, but
not compete with, similar existing business clubs.
This could serve as a springboard for both academic
achievement and entrance into existing "general
business" clubs, he said.
At the community level, Smith said, students in
the program will have a chance to see professionals
in more than one part of their field. Then, when they
enter the professional world, the program's stu
dents know about their field.
To participate, students must be U. S. citizens,
either low-income or physically handicapped stu
dents or students with legal guardians who do not
have a baccalaureate degree; and students with an
academic need. Students must also be making
"satisfactory academic progress" as defined by the
university.
The program resulted from Smith's awareness
that the federal program had started. Smith said his
own desire to tear down obstacles blocking disad-;
vantaged or minority students also helped bring the
program to UNL

Tree removal is scheduled to start this week along
Normal Boulevard between South and 40th streets.
The removal of 150 trees in this area is necessary so

Normal will remail open to traffic during the tree
removal, but there could be temporary' delays.
UNL's Division of Continuing Studies is offering

Television History" (Poli Sci 260s) Sept. 9, or "Under
standing Human Behavior" (Psychology 171s) start

ranging from "Coping with Criticism" to "GMAT
Review."

National and international news
from the Reuter News Report
Homeleoo citizens
' want voting liglits
PHILADELPHIA A Federal court, in a
case that could have national ramifications,
Monday began hearings on whether homeless
people living on park benches, in hallways or in
the street have the right to vote in Philadel
phia. Philadelphia is opposing such a move,
saying people without fixed addresses cannot
vote because this would lead to widescale
voter fraud.
The people's right to a fair and accurate
election, without voter fraud, outweighs the
loss of voting rights for those who are hometa,"
Deputy City Solicitor Ralph Teti told reporters
after the hearing before U.S. District Court
Judge Joseph Lord III.
Lord, calling the case a "very thorny and very
difficult constitutional question "said he would
hand down his ruling after another hearing
but before next November's election. He did
not set a date for the final hearing.
If successful, groups representing homeless
citizens are expected to press their case in
cities across the country. With the exception of
Washington, D.C., voters must present a fixed
address before they are given the right to vote.
Two months ago, Washington became the only
U.S. city to allow its homeless to register and
vote. Attorney Stephen Gold said he would call
officials from Washington and other American
cities to testify on the constitutional question
before the court.
Outspeakers ousted
WASHINGTON Six U.S. citizens with ties
to organized labor have been deported from
Honduras as a result of engaging in forbidden
political activities, the State Department said
Monday. Spokesman Alan Romberg told reporters
they were arrested and deported to Nicaragua
on Saturday because they had taken part in a
political rally the day before.
"Honduran law prohibits the participation
of foreigners in political activities," he said.
Therefore, when foreigners who have been
' admitted as tourists engage in such activity
their immigration status is placed in jeopardy
and the government takes steps to deport
them."
In Tegucigalpa, the Honduran government
said the six had called for the withdrawal of
U.S. troops from Honduras at a union rally. The
Americans, members of the Philadelphia Labor
Committee on Central America and the Carib
bean, were arrested by national police intelli
gence agents and taken to the airport where
they were held for five hours until their flight
left for Nicaragua.
Spanish beach rehashed
CASTELLON, Spain - Police have recovered
two more tons of hashish floating at sea or
washed up on eastern Spanish beaches, bring
ing the total to more than four tons, officials
said Monday. Police and coast guards have
collected the drugs near this resort in 146 bags
bearing the words "Netherland sugar" since
bathers first found them Wednesday. Smugglers
afraid of being intercepted by coast guards
probably dumped them overboard, officials
said.
Gorilla warfare waged
JOHANNESBURG - Eighty enraged mon
keys stormed a house and attacked two police men
who tried to rescue the occupants, a
newspaper reported Monday.
The Rand Daily Mail quoted 59-year-old Kit
tie Lambrechts of Durban as saying monkeys
had pestered the family for more than a year.
She said they had just caught a female and a
baby in a trap over the weekend when the
monkeys descended on the house. The whole
troop went into a raging fury and attacked us,"
she said. "A young visitor had to run for his life
and slammed the door closed just before a
full-grown monkey could get hold of him. It
was terrifying'
Two policemen who came to the rescue were
chased back into their van by the monkeys,
who jumped on the vehicle. Armed reinforce
ments were called and shot four monkeys
dead. The troop then fled into the bush, appar
ently after the leader was killed, the paper
said.
