I raised money
I to acquire art
The Sheldon Memorial Art Gallery
gained as much as $50,000 for its

George Neubert, gallery director,

I the public.
Neubert said more than 160 people
: attended the $150-a-plate affair that
i included dinner, an auction and a
I fashion show.
I The event was sponsored by the
f Nebraska Art Association. Neubert said
- final figures won't be available until
i next week, but low estimates of money
; earned reach $25,000, and the figure
could reach $50,000.
Most of the expenses for the event
j were underwritten by corporate spon

a liaison between Sheldon and the
Nebraska Art Association.
Ten ice sculptures, made by Jerry
and Kathy Holmes, were set up on the
Gallery steps as part of the event. Each
i of the ice sculptures contain a snow
flake to go along with the title of the
event and should remain on the steps
.until they melt or are vandalized.

. "We don't have enough good equip
'' ment," one group member said.
- Lionberger said The Rattlers will
probably keep rattling as long as they
make enough money for beer and enough
gas to get them out to Hickman, where
they practice.
Larry Boehmer of the Zoo Bar des
; cribed The Rattlers as a new, young
band with a lot of energy.
"They're not seasoned. I've seen
; tighter bands," he said, "but they seem
! to have a lot of energy."
Despite the Journal-Star music poll
The Rattlers are not the best local
group in Lincoln. Their t echnical short
comings alone would make that evi
dent. Apart from that they don't have
much variety in music. Most of their
songs seem to have the same steady
driving beat behind them and thus
seem repetitious.
The Rattlers need a certain type of
crowd to be effective. So far, they
haven't got the versatility to shape
their moods to the audience.
DeBord said the best audience for
The Rattlers would be a rowdy, drink
ing crowd.
The Rattlers do, however, have plenty
of energy, and more importantly, they
seem to be having fun. If they meet an
audience with the same ingredients, it
could be a fun night for all.
"If you've had a har d day at work and
want to go out, get drunk and throw
; your body around, we're the band to
see," DeBord said. "We may not be
famous, but we're always fun."
