ASUN designates CU matchup as UNL’s official migration game By Lee Rood Staff Reporter ASUN members decided Wednesday night that Colorado will be the site of this year’s official migration football game for University of Nebraska-Lincoln students. Students can purchase tickets for the game for $22.50 Oct. 12-14. Joseph Selig UNL’s ticket office manager, said 1,000 tickets are availa ble. Selig said each student must pur chase his or her own ticket. Selig said because the game is dur ing Thanksgiving weekend, he isn’t sure how the tickets will sell. “We don’t know what to expect. Some students may make it a ski weekend; others may want to go home,” he said. ASUN President Andy Pollock said members approved Colorado as the official migration game last year, but because the date for the game was changed, members needed to revote Wednesday night. The Colorado game was chosen be cause it is considered a “big game” and it is one of the more difficult ones to get tickets for, Pollock said. “It also had something to do with the fact that we lost last year,” he said. In the hour-long meeting, members also discussed Finding ways of promot ing ASUN, improving the organization’s image on campus and working more productively together. ‘We can have a productive year if we just stick together,” First Vice Presi dent Shawn Boldt said. Second Vice President John Berg meyer said he thought it was important that members present a “good image” of ASUN and not say negative things about the organization on campus. “You were elected to this position — you need to accept that responsibil ity,” Bergmeyer told members. Harris unveils ‘food-raising’ plan By Amy Edwards Senior Reporter Lincoln mayor Bill Harris donned his FarmAid cap Thursday afternoon at a press conference to announce a “food raising” project for Nebraska. He introduced the Nebraska Cares project, which will let Nebraskans par ticipate directly in the FarmAid effort. Deane Finnegan, project coordina tor, said money raised through Nebraska Cares will be distributed to Nebraskans. Businesses participating in the Ne braska Cares are asked to contribute to FarmAid. Businesses can decide what that contribution will be. In return, the businesses are entitled to use the Nebraska Cares logo in any sales or promotions directly related to the project. The Haymarket Harvest Festival Sept. 17-20 is a part of the promotion. Events like parades, street dances, chili feeds and crafts shows will be part of the free enterfainment. Finnegan said 37 Lincoln organiza tions are donating time and money to the festival. Crossover country singer Michael Martin Murphey will perform Friday Sept. 18 for the Haymarket Festival. Finnegan said 50 percent of all pro ceeds from the arts and crafts show and sale will go to the FarmAid effort. KLIN AM radio is asking people who plan to attend the festival to bring a can of food for donation to Nebraska Cares. Harris said he wants to fill Nebraska food pantries before the holidays. Har ris said food donations do not go to FarmAid, but FarmAid is the catalyst for the project. Jon Camp, of the Lincoln Haymarket Development Corp. said he hopes the Haymarket Harvest Festival becomes an annual event. Harris said he plans to keep his pledge to Willie Nelson to raise $250,000 for FarmAid. “I’m sure that Nebraska cares as much as I care and will come forward with contributions, Harris said. Nebraska already has raised $110,000 for FarmAid. “I just don’t see how anything could go any better as far as the city of Lin coln is concerned,” Harris said. — ---—r \ ^Mamrmrmammxmwmm ■SEESwSE&tfi o [MPMsvnffinnfii^ nki£yI£2BU3Aiii3S£fiS 5 f ( FINAL Today 10-6 f j Q Sat. 10-6 f | DAYS!
