In previous years, she said, the drills occurred during spring break. The drills, sponsored by the Department of Civil Defense, will be conducted throughout the state as part of "Tornado Aware ness Week." Taylor said she hopes students and faculty members will cooperate and move to the shelters quickly. Students and faculty members are requested to bring AMFM radios and flashlights with them to the shelters. At 10:35 a.m. radio and TV stations will give an all clear message. Building maintenance reporters will monitor the buildings during the drill and help everyone find the shelters, Taylor said. "People unwilling to participate are leaving themselves wide open," Taylor said. "If they don't, they don't. We never know when something like this might happen." After the drill, all building mainte nance reporters will evaluate the exer cise and report to the UNL mainte nance department, Taylor said. Last year, faculty members and ad ministrators had a compliance rate of 95 percent, Taylor said.

OMAHA 'J- 1K''Sr' --v Staff Reporter Nicaraguan diplomat and poet Ro berto Vargas told a group of graduate political science students Tuesday that the United States is trying to annihi late Nicaragua. President Reagan proposed $100 million in aid to Nicaraguan rebels in his State of the Union address. Vargas said the Contras aren't getting the money and probably won't be in Nica ragua by this summer. "The Contras isn't a country, isn't a nation, isn't a movement. It's a mer cenary army," Vargas said. Vargas is the Cultural and Labor Affairs Counselor for Nicaragua at its U.S. Embassy in Washington. "They don't have popular support, so what is the justification of giving them $100 million?" Vargas said the ruling Sandinistas do have the support of the people. "If we didn't have the support of the people, we would have been gone long ago," he said. He also said Nicaragua has suffered from negative propaganda spread by the United States. "Nicaragua has been used as a scapegoat for other things that are ' ragua is called "the cancer of the hemi sphere" and "the most mortal threat to the entire free world" because the Sandinistas are communist. Since the Sandinistas took power in 1979, Nicaragua has been elevated from a "banana republic" to the "sea of red lapping at the doorstep" of the United States, he said. "I don't believe or trust anything this administration says anymore," Vargas said. "And I feel sorry for people who do." The people of Nicaragua, who have spent 45 years under dictatorships financed by the United States, are arm ing themselves against the "daily threats from the most powerful nation in the world," he said. Vargas will speak at a brown bag luncheon today at 11:30 a.m. in Old-fciherSSa.
