Gary Durflinger, who works for Kess Inc., fell after the ladder he was standing on slipped out from under neath him, said Lt. Ken Cauble of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln Po lice. The accident occurred at about 3 p.m. Matt Glenn, who was playing bas ketball nearby in the coliseum at the time of the accident, said Durflinger was unconscious for about a minute after he fell. Glenn, an emergency medical technician in the Nebraska Army National Guard, said construction workers hurried out of the construe lion area after the accident, yelling lor someone to give CPR. Durflinger did not have a heart attack, Glenn said. Glenn, a junior biology major at UNL, said the man began to revive when he arrived on the scene. Glenn said he applied pressure to a cut over Durflingcr’s left eye while another construction worker held Durflingcr’s head steady in case Durflinger had a broken neck. Paramedics arrived about 10 min utes after the fall, Glenn said. They took Durflinger to Lincoln General Hospital. He was released Monday morning. Efforts keep fights from snowballing SNOW from Page 1 fight had not occurred. Bart Vitek, president of Abel Hall, also spoke to the Abcl-Sandoz Resi dence Association, urging them to tell students of the penalties for par ticipation in a snowball fight - pro bation or expulsion. Petersen said UNL Police also have a better coordinated plan for stopping the fights with a more “pro active” position, rather than reactive after a fight starts. Petersen said a few snowball fights broke out Monday afternoon, although UNL police said they did not know about them. CpI. Doug Petersen of the I NI Police said the department did not have any extra men on-call, but w ere patrolling 16th St. more than usual. “It’s stop — before it gets started,” he said of the plan. J ames Griesen, vice cnance I lor I or student affairs, said he was concerned about the possibility of a snowball fight too. His fears of a fight resur faced Monday night while he was walking his dog. He said he made a snowball and realized the warmer temperatures made for “good pack ing weather.” But Griescn said he thought the efforts of Petersen and the residence hall leaders made a difference. There were some small fights Monday af ternoon, but the police broke them up before they escalated, he said. ‘‘I think everybody’s ready for this one. The best snowball fight is one that doesn’t happen,” Griescn said. ■ ■ ■ i —1 Edita Curt Wagner 472-1766 Managing Editor Diana Johnson Assoc.
