Kerrey a!d the Lc'Lkiure needs to examine both the Commonwealth Sav ings Co. problem and the question cf authorizing a constitutional amend ment that would allow form land to be taxed differently than other property. Unto the Commonwealth problem Lj resolved, Kerrey said, it will continue to haunt the state. If a special session h called, he said the liCislature will need to determine how to turn the insolvent bank's assets into cash and how to get additional money for depositors.

"We heard a lot of complaints from students," Wong said. Students were confused because the floors in the two buildings do not line up, he said, and because directional and informational signs are nonexistent or hard to read. Hie new signs will have a uniform design that will make them easy to spot, he said. He will also design some changeable, temporary signs for special times of the year, such as the drop add period.

Un less some fort cf legation is passed, farmers living close to cities will end up suffering from high taxes. According to state law, if the Legis lature chooses to resolve the farm land Issues through a constitutional amend ment, a special session must be called at least 50 days before November's regular session. According to Kerrey, if a special session is to be called, it would have to be called by early Sep tember.

The project is directed by John Benson, assistant vice-chancellor for academic affairs, and Professor Ernest Moore, chairman of the archi tecture department. The cost of the project, which involves about 70 signs, has not yet been determined, Wong said. Wong has conducted extensive research to find out how to make the buildings less confusing. He has interviewed students and adminis trators, and met with many of the university's "V.I.P.'s," he said. He has also suggested that the floors be color-coded, so that people can more easily tell which floors in the two buildings are at the same level - "Sometimes people remember colors more than numbers," he said. Wong said the project has a target completion date of August 25. He said it was yet to be determined whether the signs would be built by UNL's grounds department or by an outside contractor. y I rtftoyHri c-fTf ) , c 4 , Accepted at Pershing Box AUGUST 15 S:KS PM, 1Q SjtuSS Luka Grshsai v$ Tug Taylor vi T.G. ldm MAIN EVENT HAHLEY RACE & EUZZ TYLER VS THE GHAFPIXHS Tickets on sata at Pershing Box Q:ilZ9 RestTvsd Rlngslds $3.C3 Gen.
