this space to kudos for a few deserving
people.
The Daily Nebraska.! has devoted a column,
called "Who's News" to the members of the
university community who have dene something
special for two semesters. Today, we're devoting
the editorial column to them.
Two graduate students frem the UNLTeachers
College who earned their doctoral decrees in
19S4 received national recognition for their
dissertations.
Joan Oftedahl cf Westby, Wis., received the
1985 Distinguished Award in Teacher Education
for her paper, "Secondary English Methods
Courses in the Midwest as Vieved by Methods
Professors and Secondary English Teachers."
Marilyn Harris of Lincoln received the Phi
Delta Kappa Oulstsndin; Doctoral Dissertation
Award for her paper, "Secondary School Parents,
Teachers, and Building Administrators Regard
ing the Applications of Computer Technology in
the Public Schools." Neither will win any awards
for title brevity.
Ezekial Bahar, a professor cf electrical engi
neering, was the only professor from UNL to be
nominated and selected as a fellow of the Insti
tute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. The '
international organization honored Bahar for
"contributing to the theory of propegation, scat
tering and depolarization of electromagnetic
waves." Ke was probably shocked to get the
award. , ' : ' '
Dr. John Schmitz, chairman of the department .
of veterinary science at UNL, was appointed to
represent the association cf American Veteri
nary Colleges on the National Board Examina
tion Committee of the American Veterinary Med-,
ical Association. The national 1 2-member commit-'
tee works with the professional examination
service that creates the tests given to veterinary
graduates seeking licenses.
We congratulate these special members of the
UNL community. We encourage readers to. sub
mit names to the Daily Nebraskan for our Who's
News column. If you know of someone who has
won an award or done something special, let us
know.

yjr aar -
I hate Lucy. '
Everj'one loves her, but to me she was a
squawking housewife who couldn't control
herself outside her own home and always
depended on Rickie to get her out of trouble.
I hated the screaming. "Eiiiiickeeeeee!" Then
Arnez walks in with "Wasa madder wif my wittk
wousewife?''
Ahhh. r

Knowing about this hate will help you under
stand the nightmare I had last night.
Ronald Reagan, then actor Reagan, met and
fell in love with Lucille tall ; -
He continued on his fateful journey to the
Whitehouse and lo and behold, Lucy was the first
lady. . .
Ahhhh.
In the midst of a somewhat blissful sleep,
dreaming of the long lost puppy I never locked
for, my inner visions switched to a Curtis Mathes
television set. I dream rich.
"Welcome to i Love Lucy.' Starring Lucy
Reagan. Also Casper Mertz and his wife Ethel.
And Ronnie Reagan."
"We'll be back after these commercials for
lemon-scented dog food."
I, cf course, got up and went to the bathroom. 1
don't like commercials even in my dreams. I got
back just as the show started.
"Gee, Ethel," Lucy said. "I don't think we're
supposed to be in here."
"Oh Lucy, I know little Rickie ran in here. My!
Look at all these lights."
"Oh, look at this panel Ethel. It says Top
Secret."
"Ooo, Lucy, what could it be?"
"I'll bet 1 know, Ethel. Ronnie promised me a
surprise birthday present something about
china, I'll bet he hid it behind this panel."
"Here, Lucy, let me help you with that. Here's
a screwdriver." ...
"There, Ethel," Lucy said, "I've gat it. Awwww,
Etttthellll, there's nothing here but a bunch of
buttons."
"Well, what are you waiting for Lucy? Push
some buttons."
"Do you think I should?"
"Sure."
"Oh, gee Ethel, look at that map lighting up
on the big screen,"
"Occo, Lucy, ysu jr:t destroyed the Soviet
Bloc. You must cf set eff seme kind of nuclear
bomb."
. "Oh Ethel, what will Ronnie do? Waaaah!!"
"Mommy, mommy" Ronnie yells, running into
the room, "What are yoa ddsg in here?"
. "Oh, Ronnie, I didn't mean to. Waaaah!"
"Mean to what dear?".
"Destroy the Soviet Eoc." '
"What?" ..
"I hit these buttons, zze, and this screen lit
up, see and boom, tfcoire pes the Kremlin."
"Oh, Lucy," Ronnie said, smiling and vibrating
from the neck up, "TMs isn't the real military
central rocr.i. This is Jsist my try."
"You mean I didn't destroy Russia?"
"No. This room is just for fun. As long as those
Democrats control the Itea, they'll never let
, me destroy the real Russia. Bat they can't stop
me from kidding ajccrJj eta they? lleh, heh."
"Oh, Ronnie, I love yen."
"Now, mommy, now." .,
"Does this mean you won't kill us," Ethel said,
coming cut from under a table.
They all laugh. The show fade3 into a com
mercial, and I turn tha channel, roll over and
watch the Solid Gold Dancers.

Tilse that voluntary crgarisatioia are secondary

campus group involvement. We differ, however,
with the idea of elevating voluntary service in
these groups to the level of salaried positions.
When salaries are paid in the "real world,"
someone is hired to perform duties far a given
number of hours a week. The first- and sscond
vice presidents cf ASUN run for these posts
voluntarily, ostensibly to serve UNL students and
give their best fee and efTort to ASUN. Who is to
say whether the ASUN vice presidents will do a '
sufficient job to earn a salary? If vice presidents

or them, should they be fired? .
