The Nebraska Community Improve
ment Program could face some stiff
budget cuts and an uncertain future if
the Legislature reduces the NU budget
by 3 percent.
The NCIP, now in its 23rd year, is run
by the UNL Community Resource and
Research Center and the state De
partment of Economic Development.
According to NU President Ronald
Roskens' proposed cuts, the center
could face a $20,000 cut this year and
could be eliminated next year if the
Legislature passes a proposed 3 per
cent NU budget cut.
The NCIP program already has been
affected by budget cuts, said John Gul
ick, a center representative. He said
the economic development department
had seven field service representatives
working on community development
statewide. Now the department's only
service representative position is open,
he said. .
Culick said that three years ago he
was able to work with programs and
towns other than the ones in NCIP.
Now he said he can't do Justice to all 50
NCIP communities.
The problem with community devel
opment programs at budget time is
that the best community developer
often is the least visible, he said. It
doesn't help a community to get a nurs
ing program, he said, if community res
idents don't learn the skills to deal
with problems. Gulick said the com
munity development expert should be
a catalyst to get the process of self
improvement started.
"I don't wear a cap with scalp3 that
say, 'I got Sutton this,' I got York that,'
Gulick said.
Rather, Gulick said he helps people
learn a generic process to tackle their
problems..
NCIP program participation helps
build cummunity pride.
The DED is trying to help Nebraska
towns get new businesses, Gulick said
but if the community doesn't have
pride in itself, it is hard to sell the
community.
Each NCIP town keeps a scrapbook
of its work each year for competition
between communities. That process
forces a community to think about its
strengths, Gulick said.
The NCIP presentation also can be a
dry run for presentations to businesses,
he said. For communities that have
been in the program for several years,
the scrapbooks show businesses how
much work the residents invested in
their community.
The CRRC'8 work with NCIP is an
opportunity for graduate students to
get experience, Gulick said. He has
worked with three graduate students
this year. One of the students got a
grant to help communities start recyc
ling programs. Another organized a bus
tour of the accomplishments of Lincoln
neighborhood organizations of the
NCIP Awards Day.
Final Mensa test slated for Nov. 9
By Molly Adams
Staff Reporter
This year's final qualifying test for
Mensa, the International High IQ
Society will be given Thursday Nov. 9 at
Bennett Martin Library. Mensa mem
bership is open to anyone who scores in
the top 2 percent on a standard IQ test.
Jim Bunstock, president of the Lin
coln Mensa chapter, said the test cov
ers math, verbal skills, reasoning and
logical sequence.
"We've looked at a lot of different IQ
tests nationally and selected a couple
that we feel offer the broadest range of
raw intelligence," he said.
Bunstock said Mensa is a "Round
table organization" in which people
who score highly on the IQ test can
share common interests. Some activi
ties include tours, discussions, game
nights and speakers. The organization
also features special interest groups.
Bunstock said the groups are formed
within the organization by people who
may want to explore a special interest
more thoroughly.
Bunstock said the Lincoln Mensa
chapter has 126 members. UNL stu
dents and instructors are the single
best source of membership. Mensa has
about 47,000 members nationally.
Anyone interested in taking the
three-hour test should register at the
library at 9:30 a.m. Thursday Nov. 9. A
$20 exam fee covers all testing and
scoring.
Police Report
UNL police arrested two people Thurs
day for the alleged theft of natural gas
from Lancaster House Printing at 12th
and Q streets.
The theft occurred in Octobei when
$3,000 of natural gas was reportedly
stolen by a gas line hooked to the Lan
caster House gas meter.
Three vehicles were reported van
dalized Thursday in Parking Area 2
near 16th and Y streets.
UNL police received three reports
Friday of stereos stolen from vehicles
parked in Parking Area, 1-2 on 19th
Street between T and U streets.
Other thefts reported Friday include
basketball equipment from the Coli
seum, custodial equipment from
Richards Hall and a purse from Old
father hall.
Saturday UNL police recovered a
vehicle that had been reported stolen
near 29th and Orchard streets.
Ak-Sar-Ben modernizes to compete
RACES from Page 1
He said trifecta wagering is being
considered because of the popularity of
the pick-six wagering. Pick-six is a bet
made on the winners of the third race
through the eighth race.
To appeal to more patrons, Ak-Sar-Ben
is spending $7.5 million on remo
deling, said Tim Schmad, director of
Ak-Sar-Ben public relations. He said
the track is being remodeled because
it is 50 years old and Ak-Sar-Ben wants
to remain competitive with new tracks.
"The modernization is meant to
update the facility for the fan," he said.
A survey done by Bloodhorse maga
zine named Ak-Sar-Ben among the top
25 horseracing tracks in the nation.
Oelschlager said the Omaha track ranks
seventh in attendance and 15th in daily
bets.
Oelschlager said Lincoln is "looking
into" making improvements on the
Fairgrounds track, including installing
lights for night racing, enclosing the
grandstand and lengthening the racetrack.
"There is great, untapped potential
here for fall racing," he said.
Horseracing affects more than just
horse trainers, owners and jockeys,
Oelschlager said. "It helps Nebraska's
economy and supports the whole state,"
he said.
"Horsetracks create jobs, boost agri
culture sales and give business to hot
els and restaurants in the community,"
he said.
Oelschlager said it takes 550 160
acre farms just to raise the hay and feed
needed for thoroughbreds in the state.
