w
omen's group still afloat
despite state funding cuts
By Janis Lovitt
Staff Reporter
Although the Nebraska Commission
on the Status of Women recently suf
fered a severe cut of its state funding,
the group still is operating, the com
mission's chairwoman said.
Chairwoman Ada Munson said
volunteers and donations keep the
agency going.
In June, the Legislature passed a
budget bill that eliminated money for
the commission, the Displaced Home
maker Program, the Mexican-American
Commission and the Commission on
Indian Affairs.
The funding cut caused the agency
to make some drastic changes, Munson
said. For instance, she said, the com
mission staff was reduced from eight
people to two.
Christine Funk will become execu
tive director for the agency Monday.
Funk, who worked with Lincoln Sen.
Dave Landis on a sex discrimination
project, said her top priority is getting
the Legislature to resume funding lor
the commission.
Funk said she expects the commis
sion and other women's groups to begin
fund raising in the next few weeks.
Meanwhile, Munson said, funds will
continue to come from donations from
concerned Nebraskans. Munson said
she has received donations of $3 and
others of $3,000.
"We've made progress," she said.
"But it hasn't been as fast as we wished
it would."
The commission depends on the
volunteer services of 30 commissioners
statewide, she said.
"Not only do these people volunteer
their time, they also have quite a few
traveling expenses," Munson said. She
said the commission once scheduled
conferences across the state. Because
of the cut, the conferences are now
impossible.
Munson said she thinks fewer con
ferences in western Nebraska will defeat
many of the commission's purposes.
"We are sorry the cut came at a time
when more than ever, women need the
commission's help," Munson said. "We
feel like we need to take the pulse of
the women of Nebraska in a time when
the economy has made crisis for the
women and their families."
Although the commission doesn't
receive state money, it remains a state
agency, Munson said.
The commission became a statutory
state agency in 1971. The statute
remains, but not the funding, she said.
Munson said she hopes the Legisla
ture will agree to give partial funding
to the commission.
"We've taken this as a time to review
ourselves," she said. "We feel we have
vital services to deliver and we will
continue to work toward our goals for
this year."
Because of the budget cut, the com
mission moved to an office in the lower
level of the State Office Building.
"We want people to realize that even
though there have been cuts in fund
ing, we're still here," she said.
Police report 13 car stereo thefts
By Ron Waymire
Staff Reporter
Stereo equipment has been stolen
from 13 cars since the school year
began, according to UNL Police.
Ten of the thefts occurred this
month.
Police Cpl. Bill Manning said stereo
thieves probably frequent parking lots
and look for stereos in the newer cars.
The chances are greater of finding a
nice stereo in a new car than an older
model, he said.
Many thieves use the "easy key" a
bent coat hanger. Manning said others
break windows to get in a car.
One of the most recent thefts includ
ed a Sanyo AMFM stereo with speakers
from a car in a parking lot near Selleck
Quadrangle. About two weeks ago, a
person broke into a car, took apart the
dashboard and removed the stereo.
This occurred sometime between 8 and
10 a.m.
"Someone had to see that guy,"
Manning said.
Police have made no arrests this
year in connection with stereo thefts.
One problem in finding suspects:
determining when the theft occured.
Manning said students who live on
campus may not drive their cars for
days long after a theft occurs.
To avoid a theft, car owners can buy
an automobile alarm. Tim Knight, owner
of Auto Alarm Techs, said he recom
mends two kinds of auto alarms: a
paging system or a current-sensing
system.
A paging system senses vibrations
with a device called a microsensor.
When someone pulls on a door handle
or tries to run a coat hanger through
the window, Knight said, the micro
sensor senses vibration and sets off a
beeper in the owner's pocket. But the
beeper also can be set off by rain, he
said.
The current-sensing system is acti
vated either automatically or by a key
switch, Knight said. When a potential
thief tries to break in, an electric siren
sounds to scare the thief away.
Knight said he usually installs alarm
systems in cars that have been broken
into a couple of times.
