In their cities while the machines were
in operation.
Most opponents urged the commit
tee to kill the bill, but supporters said
letting the public defeat the machines
would quiet proponents who say that a
majority of Kebraskans support them.
Sen. Peter Hoagland of Omaha said
he wants the committee or the Legisla
ture to kill the Issue if it gets that far.
He said senators should confront this
delicate matter.
"1 think it's a copout. Whenever we
have a dim cult issue or an issue that
we're losing on, to put it to avote of the
people," Hoagland said.
He testified thr.t an unscientific poll
of his constituents showed that 71 per
cent were against the machines. He
said that In a representative demo
cracy, senators should bo able to make
the decision for the people.
Sen. Gerald Conway cf Wayne, a
committee member, gsJd to carry out
Hoaland's representative democracy
theory, every senator should have the
opportunity to voice the preference cf
their constituents.
"I don't want to hold it hostage
here," he said.
The long hearing tested the sena
tors' tempers.
Committee member Marge Biggins
cf Omaha was repeatedly interrupted
by Hoagland while attempting to ques
tion him. Hi&dns asked Chairman Flrcy
Hefner to ask Hosfjar.d to behave like a
witness while on the stand.
Sen. Pat Morehead later scolded
Sen. P.ex Haberman after he solicited
an apology from McGill for observing
that "one of the damn shames today is
that we don't have any statesmen. We
just have politicians with their hands
out," McGill said.

Two-thirds of young contact lens
wearers report that they have more
dates and have increased activity in
school and sports events, according to
a Heart of America Contact Lens Society
study.
The owner of Pearle Vision Center,
1132 0 St., said he thinks most people
buy contact lenses for cosmetic reasons.
'They don't like the way they look in
glasses," owner David Kovar said.
Three types of contact lenses are
available: the conventional hard lenses,
soft lenses and gas-permeable lenses.
Gas-permeable lenses, the newest
type, have made it possible for more
people to wear contact lenses. Kovar
said these lenses allow oxygen to pass
through the lenses.
"They are more comfortable to wear,
short-term and long-term," Kovar said.
Convenience and health are other
reasons people opt for contact lenses
instead of glasses.
Inta Larson, office manager with
Family Contact Lens Center, 6803 0 St.,
said more people are choosing contact
lenses because they aren't as awkward
as glasses and they cost about the
same.
"They give patients a lot more free
dom 7ay from glasses," Larson said.
Prices for contact lenses range from
$59 (for hard lenses) to about $175 (for
gas-permeable lenses), Lovar said.
Tinted soft lenses are a new type of
lens offered. Kovar said that sometimes
peopla who don't have bad vision want
to buy these lenses to change their eye
color.
These people need to have their eyes
examined and consider the care re
quired for contact lenses.
"The patient would have to ask
themselves, 'How badly do I want to do
this,' " Kovar ssld.
In general, what's new in the contact
lens industry is not the different types
of lens, but the different type of lens
wearers. Ten years ago, the contact
lens market's primary consumers were
17-year-old girls. Now the first-time
wearer is changing according to Kovar.
More men and older people are wearing
contact lenses.
"The category of contact wearers has
broadened," he said.

Some youth in France speak French backward
to show their rebellion against society, said
Nicole Smith, professor of French at UNL.
Knowing any foreign language that well is
unimaginable to many American students.
Smith led a foreign language anxiety work
shop, which was part of 15 study skills work
shops scheduled for this semester. The work
shops are sponsored by the Educational Learning
Center, Selleck 7005 and are free to all UNL
students and faculty.
To relieve some of the anxiety of learning a
foreign language, Smith suggests students first
examine their attitudes. Students with highly
motivated, but relaxed attitudes usually do well
learning foreign languages, she said.
"It is important to realize that language is
completely arbitrary," Smith said. Students get
frustrated when there aren't always "explana
tions" for things, she said.
Smith said students should make use of their
eyes, ears and muscles when memorizing. She
suggested categorizing and color coding words
on fiashcards.
She also suggested saying words aloud and
training the mouth muscles by saying them
often. However, she did caution against studying
for prolonged periods of time.
"Treat your memory with care," she said.
Smith advised students not to become frus
trated if they can't remember a word. To commit
a word to long-term memory, a person must
forget it and re-memorize it seven times, she
said.
The next study skill workshops are "How to
Study Math" or. Wednesday and "Nctetaking in
College" on Thursdsy, both at 2:S0 p.m.
Overcoming procrastination, test anxiety and
introduction to speed reading are among the
other study skills workshops scheduled this
semester.
rivosha opposes elected judges
By Carla Jolnison-lQmferoiEgii

Nebraska's Supreme Court Chief Justice said
Wednesday that changing to a system of electing
judges would be a hindrance to judicial decision
making Chief Justice Norman Krivosha addressed a
group of Lincoln Chamber of Commerce members
during the first "Face the Chamber" program cf
1885. Krivosha said many people think that if
judges were elected, they would be more respon
sive to the people.
In the state of Nebraska, judges are appointed.
The governor and the Legislature are required by
law to represent the people, he said. Judges, he
said, are precluded by law from representing
constituent view? in their decisions.
Krivosha, who is "violently opposed" to chang
ing to a system in which judges are elected,
questioned how people could feel comfortable
r ncvlig a law was ruled unconstitutional bcg
cf voter pressure. "
The responsibility of the court is to interpret
what the law sap sccordisg to precedence and
the Constitution! ha s&idlssues such as the
death penalty and impeschement procedures,
Krivosha said, nrast be decided by the people
and the Legislature.
Although there is, on averse, only one im
peachement about every CO years, Krivosha said,
the real issue in impeachment procedures is
avoiding situations that require such action.
The Nebraska Supreme Court, unlike the U.S.
Supreme Court, must hesr all esses filed with
the court. Tfcere are 1,002 esses presently on file
with the court, he said.
On the average, Krivosha said, Nebraska does
not have a serious backlog. Tha bsddeg, he said,
varies from court to court
With the rola cf technology in society growing
continually larger, Krivosha srid he is not sure of
the role the computer will phy in the court
system cf the future.
"Justice requires seme hesrt er.d mind," he
