Page 8 WE'RE FIGHTING FOR YOUR LIFE AMERICAN HEART ASSOCIATION Mid West National Life Students Health and Accident Insurance UNL has tried to find a medical plan to suit the needs of most of our students, graduate or undergraduate. Mid West Student Insurance Com pany and the University Health Center arc working together to provide such a plan. The premium for student coverage is affordable, and works in conjuncion with the Student health Center fees to provide the best medical care available and as economical as possible. The student is required to seek treatment at University Health Center whenever possible. To effectively utilize this policy your Health Center fees must be paid. In the event of an emergency, if you arc more than 50 miles from UHC, or when a referral has been obtained from a UHC physician, there is a S75.00 deductible and MOST charges arc paid at 80%. Dependent coverage is also available for an additional preminium. The policy is designed to help off-set the cost of major medical care and hospitalizations. It docs not cover routine physicals, denial visits or prescriptions. Dependents must use community medical resources, and the deductibles will apply. QUARTELY COVERAGE AVAILABLE November 24, 1990 RATES: Student Only $84.00 Student/ Spouse $297.00 Add for Each Child $94.00 Semi- Annual Coverage will begin February 24,1991 Spring - Summer Coverage begins 1/14/91 Dcatailcd information and rates arc available by mail or at the Student Health Center.

Nov 15-17 AT 8 PM Nov 18 AT 3PM HOWELL THEATRE l UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA-IINCOIN I By Adeana Leftin Staff Reporter The clock began to strike 12 Cinderella broke away from the handsome prince and ran out into the night. The prince chased after her, but couldn’t keep up He reached the top of the stairs only in time to see her carriage stealing away. In agony, he slumped to the ground. Suddenly, the light caught some thing shining on the stairs He dashed to the glistening object. It was the princess’ shoe. In her hurry she must have lost it With a renewed spirit, the prince swore he would marry the woman whose foot fit into the white canvas Keds White canvas Keds? What hap pened to the glass slipper? And now magical would Cinderella be without the pumpkin? Would the same effect be acnievcd i( the car riage were transformed from a to mato? Both are fruits aren’t they? Or what if there were no stairs’ Where else would a modern, ag gressive woman like Cinderella have a good excuse to lose her shoe where her man would be sure to find it’ Let’s face it, without props, scen ery, costumes and lighting, Cin derella might as well slay in the ashes. Luckily, productions do have scenes to bring stories to life. For UNL productions, the scene shop in the Temple Building on 12th and R streets is where those props arc created by University of Xcbraska Lincoln students with a flair for -— - I costuming — and a class require * ment. Music blasts in the scenery de partment, while students sweep up the remains of the Studio Theatre’s most recent production, “Reckless." Piles of cut lumber lie in one corner, while a roomful of saws, nails and other construction hard ware are scattered arou nd the floor. Along one wall are remnants of past sets still in good enough con dition to be used again. The immense back wall is a paint frame. In laymen’s terms, it’s an enormous easel, on which the background scenery is painted, behind the frame, on the wall it self, is a menagerie of spray paint that could easily occupy a space in any modem art museum. Off to one side is the “club house." Furnished with a brig'ni orange couch and a TV that’s al ways tuned to “The Simpsons” or Thursday night, the clubhouse i! where many of the students sleep study, listen to music or just ham out. It’s also the office of Ricr Schroeder, the shop foreman. Schroeder’s theater career be gan at Nebraska Wesleyan Univer sity. When he got bored with hi psychology major, he switched t< theater in his junior year. “1 guess 1 got into it because enjoy the thrill of the production, he said. After working as a graduat assistant in scenery at I NF, Schroe der moved to New York. For th next 10 years he lived in the Hi Apple and toured Furope twic< Jefl Wlliett/Daily Nebraskan working behind the scenes and onstage. "Although I started as an actor, it’s easier to find work as a techni cian,” he said. In 1980, Schroeder returned to Nebraska. "I’m glad I came back. It’s a whole different attitude here. The Midwest is the best,” he said. Eventually, Schroeder found his way back to UNL and the position he holds now. He said he misses acting, but "technical work is much easier.” Schroeder said the toughest part of theater is coordinating all of the elements: sets, lighting, costumes and props. Schroeder is in charge of con struction of all the scenic elements for productioas in the 'Temple Build ing, such as platforms, houses and background scenery. He said labor for all the crews in ■ 'Temple was provided through work study and Introductory Drama and J Beginning Stagecraft classes. Students in the Introductory Drama class must either spend 20 . hours working behind the scenes . or write a paper. 'Those in the Be $ ginning Stagecraft class are required ) to spend 40 hours backstage dur ing a semester Graduate students I spend even more lime working at ” Temple, depending on the classes they’re taking. t But the required hours mean more than work to the students in e the'Temple Building, e "We re prettv light," Schroeder > said of the student group with Arts and sciences junior Suzanne ~ Rose numbers the curtain ropes behind the scenes. Jason Olson, a junior English/ speech major, helps props vol unteer Karen Struempler cut out a prop in the Temple workshop. i whom he works. ‘Sometimes when we’re working too many hours together, we start to be like a family —getting crabby with each other ” Schroeder said he didn’t think i the work required loo much from the students. i “Most times, all we expect of ; them is to keep an open mind and to try,” he said. > “A lot of them (students) have so 1 much fun, they’ll lake extra hours. i See BACKSTAGE on 10 - Jen wiiierr/LKifiy weorasKan Consider!
