ondale, Reagan . . .
Continued from Page 1
Earlier Monday Reagan's ad
visers said his double-digit lead in
opinion polls made it possible for
him to win in most of the 50
states. But they backed away from
an earlier prediction that he could
carry them all a feat never
achieved in a U.S. presidential
election.
Mondale steadfastly has refused
to acknowledge publicly the like
lihood of defeat, insisting the size
and enthusiasm of the crowds
which greet him show the polls
ters and commentators will be
proved embarrassingly wrong.
Mondale has concentrated his
efforts in the final days in those
states where polls show he is
close enough to Reagan to theo
retically overtake the president
and fashion an upset. Reagan
and Mondale have been tracing
each other's footsteps, each
appearing in recent days in
Cleveland, Detroit, Texas and
Boston. Yesterday, Reagan made
a quickly scheduled stop in Mon
day's home state of Minnesota
and Monday Mondale was in Rea
gan's home base of California.
Mondale warned at a Los An
geles rally that if Reagan won a
clean sweep it would.be inter
preted as a mandate for his poli
cies. "So before ycu decide, pause
a moment and think," Mondale
said. "Do you really want to give
them a mandate to turn their
backs on the suffering in Amer
ica? ... Do you really want them
to tell women and minorities that
the march toward justice is over?"
Mondale's speech repeated the
basic themes of his whole cam
paign. He added that his selec
tion of Geraldine Ferraro as a
running mate, the first woman
candidate for national office on a
major party ticket, was the best
decision he had ever made.

Scholars' day recruits high school smarties
Nebraska's top academic high
school students will attend UNL's
first Distinguished Scholars' Day
Wednesday.
The 186 students were invited
on the basis of scores on the
Scholastic Aptitude Test and their
academic records.
Loretta Johnson of Pre-Admis-.
sions said the day's activities will
emphasize UNL's academic side
in an attempt to attract these
students to enroll at the univer
sity. The day's activities will include ,
sessions with faculty members, '
workshops on admissions and
financial aid, campus tours and '
panel discussions with some of
UNL's present Merit Scholars.
An evening banquet is sche
duled for the students. Speakers
will include UNL Chancellor Mar
tin Massengale; D.B. "Woody"
Varner; chairman of the NU
Foundation ; and Billy Reagan,
superintendent of the Houston
school system. -
UNL wants to maintain a high
number of Merit Scholars, she
said. Last year, UNL had 163
Merit Scholars, a number that
was in the top 4 percent of U.S.
colleges with Merit Scholars.

"I went to his funeral, and there
were three or four other liquor
store owners there. He was one of
their best customers, too."
Hughes has seen many differ
ent kinds of customers during
the years. He said his store pulls
in a wide variety of people, from
students to blue-collar and white
collar workers.
Hughes said the store's loca
tion, 22nd and 0 streets, helps
business. Another thing that helps
is his friendly attitude.
"I don't have anything to offer
except service," Hughes said.
There will be a test of the disas
ter alarm system Wednesday in
all buildings that are equipped
for it at 11 a.m. on City and East
Campuses.
Building maintenance reporters
should contact the Maintenance
Office at 472-3141 if the alarm
does not sound in their building.
"There are 200 other places in
Lincoln selling the same products.
And I've been fortunate in hiring
the right people to work for me."
Hughes said his work schedule
isn't as hectic as in the early
years, but he still puts in about a
60-hour work week. He is usually
around if a problem comes up,
since he lives in the basement of
his liquor store.
He said he likes his basement
apartment because he doesn't
have to pay rent for a separate
place.
"It's a matter of space utiliza
tion," he said. "I had the space, so
I thought, Svhy not?' "
More than 1,100 attend second 'Busker Monday '
By Mike George
Daily Nebraskan Staff Reporter
More than 1,100 high school
students on Monday attended the
second Husker Monday, which
was coordinated by UNL's Pre
admission Activities Office.
The students were high school
seniors from schools within a
radius of 75 miles of Lincoln.
"The main purpose of the pro
gram is to give high school stu
dents the opportunity to see the
campus while classes are in ses
sion," said Linda Schwartzkopf,
director of pre-admission activ
ities.
"Husker Monday has come as a
result of the many requests by
high schools for tours," Schwartz
kopf said. "We still conduct tours
daily for any interested student to
come to campus."
The students were given tours
of the campus and were able to
talk with professors. The Office of
Scholarships and Financial Aids
gave presentations on grants and
scholarships offered at UNL
The students looked at resi
dence halls and ate at the resi
dence hall food services. In the
afternoon, UNL organizations set
up booths to present information
about their programs. In addi
tion, representatives from the
academic departments answered
questions.
"The response to the first Husker
Monday last month was very favor
able," Schwartzkopf said. The first
Husker Monday, Oct. 1, was for
students outside of the 75-mile
radius. The first Husker Monday
drew more than 700 students to
the Lincoln campus. "Some of
these students have never seen
the campus before, so we feel
that this is a good opportunity
for them to get a good look at the
campus," Schwartzkopf said.
Another Husker Monday is
tentatively scheduled in April for
high school juniors.
Some students reactions to this
Husker Monday were positive.
Amy Rogge, of Fremont, said
"the program was very helpfuL I
haven't had much of a chance to
see the campus, so today was a
big help to help me make my
decision."
Perry Sukstorf, also of Fremont,
said he found the tour of East
Campus to be helpful.
"The discussion of finanical aid
also helped quite a bit," he said.
Jackie Coday, of Fremont, said
Husker Monday definitely helped
her make a decision about cam
pus. "I never really had much of an
opportunity to see much of the
campus and to talk to the staff, so
that was a big help," she said.

"Nancy. I view with alarm the thought of spending my second term
confronted by two hostile houses of Congress. A win by you in Nebraska
would help maintain Republican control of the Senate, and assure me
the chance I seek to continue the rebuilding of this nation.
"Your experience as University of Nebraska Regent is great preparation
for a Senate in which quality education and tough budget decisions will be
both high on the agenda, and I know you will serve with great distinction.
But no vote you cast as a Senator will be as important as the first one:
to organize the Senate under a Republican leadership.
President Ronald Reagan
August 19, 1934
"Of ail the challengers for the United States Senate on the Republican
side, Nancy Hoch is closer and doing better than anyone across the entire
country . . . She's an outstanding candidate and she'll make an outstanding
Senator ... I urge you to get the vote out for Nancy and work for her."
