A decision made by Vice Chan
cellor John Yost has hurt the
pride of many members of the
UNL marching band.
Yost requested about a month
ago that two baton twirlers be
allowed to perform with the UNL
band during half time of last
Saturday's game, in addition to
solo twirler Kim Schureman.
Shaun Benson and Deanne
Bochart, both UNL students, said
they were not sure why they were
asked to join in the performance,
but were glad for the "chance of a
lifetime," Benson said.
Yost also passed this decision
down to Marching Band Director
William Ballenger and Director of
Bands Robert Fought. Ballenger
and Fought declined to comment.
Benson was the baton twirling
champion for Iowa, as Bochart
was for Nebraska and Schure
man was for Kansas. They all
auditioned for the UNL solo
twirler position last May. Drum
major Brian Walker was on the
panel that selected Schureman.
He said he thinks that by allowing
the two other twirlers to per
form, the auditioning system has
been weakened.
"I think what really bothers the
band is that we had no choice in
the matter. We didn't want three
twirlers, we wanted one," Walker
said.
"We have nothing against the
two girls, but it's just so unfair to
' our system," Walker said.
The majority of the band
members were mad, especially
the group's veteran members,
Walker said.
Messier said it is "a shame" that
a higher authority such as Yost
can select who will perform with
the band. He said it would be like
telling football coach Tom Osborne
to play someone who is good, but
who is not on the UNL football
team.
"Next the people upstairs will
be telling us what songs to play
and how to march," one band
member said.
Yost, who declined comment
on the decision, did say the band
should not be embarrassed. He
said his office has promoted other
half time guest appearances in
cooperation with the band and at
the request of his constituency.
Yost said the final decision was
left to Fought and Ballenger.

The MCC does not belong to the
Lincoln Fellowship of Churches.
Steve Evans, executive secretary
for the LFC, said he has heard of
no opposition to the new gay
church.
But some local pastors oppose
the MCC.
"I think it's a farce," said Ken
neth Baker, pastor of the Fellow
ship Baptist Church. "I think it's a
disgrace, I think it's an insult ....
It's totally of the devil"
God loves homosexuals "just
like he loves all sinners," Baker

said. "But for them to say they're
starting a Christian church is a
perversion of everything that's
right."
Father Peter Gadient, pastor of
St. Mary's Catholic Church, also is
against the MCC.
"I really am not in favor of it.
Why would they want to have a
church? We can work with these
people in other ways to help their
problem " Gadient said.
Roger Sasse, paster of the Lu
theran Student Center at UNL,
said he supports the MCC, but
thinks "it's a real tragedy that
there has to be a separate church.
v "What I wish is the gay and les
bian folks would help us change
the churches that are, instead of
separating."
Besides the MCC, Dahl said he
belongs to another fundamental
ist church. He said he considers
himself a "conservative and evan
gelical" Christian. He said he
knows the Bible.
"I don't think the Bible says
what the Church says it does"
about the immorality of homo
sexuality, he said.
Dahl said he thingks it's OK for
a Christian to have homosexual
feelings, but he does not condone
promiscuity.
"Whatever their sexual orien
tation, a Christian is bound to live
in a responsible manner," he said.
