Use lot east of stadium for extra parking, adviser says
Two years ago when UNL closed the
first parking lot for the Lied Center for
Performing Arts I wrote to the parking
committee to suggest that the entire
oval east of Memorial Stadium be
turned into a faculty-staff parking lot.
The oval also would provide access to
campus buildings.
Importantly, it would not take the
metered parking lot away from stu
dentsstafffacultyvisitors. In addition,
the extra parking spaces close to the
stadium would be desirable for elderly,
wealthy alumni who might show their
gratitude by contributing to the univer
sity. May I recommend that UNL visit
with the NU Medical Center parking
administrator before adopting reserved
parking. It helps to learn from others'
experience. A few spaces at UNMC are
reserved for administrators, and towing
occurs daily. Originally, there were
high-priced reserved spaces in the
parking structure, but it created too
many problems and costs for enforce
ment.
An informal survey of facultystaff in
my building produced a unanimous
rejection of reserved spaces and the
suggestion that we need more parking
spaces available without the current
heavy overselling of space in a lot. I
think the oval would provide those
spaces.

COHEN from Page 4
What Greene started, I have fin
ished. One night, about to down a
Canfield's, my eye stopped on a con
tainer of (2 percent) milk. The
lightbulb of genius flashed. I reached
for the Canfield's. I reached for the
milk. I poured a little of the milk
into a tall glass. I added the Can
field's. I watched that head of foam
rise to the top. With shaking hands,
I raised the glass to my lips. Oh, boy!
An egg cream.
You cannot imagine my joy. I had
one and then another. I made my
wife taste one. My son, too. I exper
imented some more. A little more
milk. A little less milk. Finally, 1
had the right proportions. Here they
are. Put some milk into a glass and
add the Canfield's. The important
thing is to put the milk in first. That
way you get a good head. It is also
traditional.
I concede that the new Cohen
cream (patent pending) is not
without calaries. By actual count
there are precisely 32 of them
more or less. Two come from the
Canfield's and 30 or so from the 2
percent milk non-fat milk would
not have enough body for a good
Cohencream. For calories, this is
really nothing. It is about the same
as one tablespoon of cornstarch (29
calories), one large raw broccoli
spear (32), 4 ounces of frozen yellow
crookneck squash (24) or ' cup of
whey (32), whatever the hell that is.
It also tastes better than any of
those things.
It is not everyday that you can
recapture your youth with a mere
drink. But my egg creams of old have
brought a new bounce to my walk. I
feel like playing stick ball in the
street, stoop ball on the stoop (where
else?) and a sip brings the Dodgers
back to Brooklyn. Everything would
be perfect, but in the interest of full
disclosure, I must admit one fly in
my new ointment.
I've broken out.

you can buy everything from new
spectacles to some pretty spectac
ular clothing. The latest in audio
equipment and the latest albums.
The Card is the perfect way to pay

How to get the Card
before you graduate.
Because we believe that college is the first
sign of success, we've made it easier for you
to get the American Express Card. Graduating
students can get the Card as soon as they
accept a $10,000 career-oriented job. If you're
not graduating this semester, you can apply
for a special sponsored Card. Look for
student applications on campus. Or call
1-800-THE- CARD, and tell them you want
a student application.
