Despite the circumstances, George
said, his family’s first trip to Nebraska
had been good.
“People here have treated us very,
very well,” he said.
Hattie
“They’re all beautiful people here
and we love them,” she said. “We
have no animosity about anything.”
* George said two letters in particu
lar caught his attention. He identified
the senders as Patricia and Leslie,
both of whom had experienced simi
lar incidents in their families.
Eric said he, too, was pleased with
the way he and his family had been
treated in Nebraska, but stressed the
importance of gclti ng h i s brother back
. to his home in Roselle, N. J., as soon as
possible.
“(Scott) needs to be around his
family now and other people who
love him,” Eric said, “and not just
people who love him for football.”

Hattie said she still had faith that
her youngest son would overcome his
injury and regain his ability to walk.
“He will walk again,” she said.
“You’vc got to have faith always, and
1 have faith. And so does (Scott).
“Our child will be all right.”
UNLPolice Department
takes to campus on foot
By Steve Smith

UnivXs'ity police officers have
been hitting the pavement this se
mester to increase their visibility to
studeniS, the UNLpolice chief said.
About 30 officers are spending a
“solid amount” of patrol time on
foot rather than behind the wheel,
Ken Cauble said.
“Students feel intimidated by
patrol cars, like we’re
unapproachable,” he said.
At any time of day, at least one
officer is patrolling the University
of Nebraska-Lincoln campus on
foot, he said.
I he foot patrol began shortly
before the fall semester and is re
quired for part of an officer’s shift,
he said.
Cauble said that having officers
patroUon fool was a popular sug
gestion from campus groups that
were asked to comment about what
was needed to get the UNL Police
Department more in touch with
students.
So far, students have responded
favorably, he said.
“We’ve had several officers say
that they’ve talked with students,”
he said. “We’re getting closer to
people this way.”
Cauble said he hoped the added
visibility of foot patrols would im
prove awareness of crime preven
tion on campus.
“We’d like for students to get to
know the officers, so that i f they see
anything suspicious, they won’t
hesitate to let us know,” he said.
An officer on foot was on the
scene after the chemical explosion
last week at Hamilton Hall and
aided other authorities, Cauble.said.
Officer Lisa Yardley, who also
walks a beat, said she thought the
foot patrol benefited officers.
“Being on foot has helped us .
find problems we didn’t know
about,” she said.
Commuters to get
new temporary lot
By Steve smith
Staff Reporter
The UNL Parking Advisory Com
mittee decided Thursday to tempo
rarily reserve a new parking lot for
commuter students.
The new lot, located south of Avery
Avenue and northwest of the UNL
Power Plant, is being covered with
gravel and readied for student use,
said Mike Cacak, interim parking
manager and a committee member.
The lot will open next week to
commuters.
The committee will decide at its
October meeting whether the lot
should remain an Area 20 commuter
lot or become an Area 3 lot reserved
for students living in the Harper
Schramm-Smith Complex.
Committee member Mark
Goldfeder, a sophomore chemistry
major and AS UN representative, said
the lot should have been devoted to
- Harper-Schramm-Smith residents.
“Harper-Schramm-Smith is in dire
need of parking,” he said.
Goldfeder said he had received
complaints from students living in
residence halls who had been ticketed
for parking in commuter lots. The
students parked in the commuter lots
because no room was left in their own
parking areas, he said.
New distant lots already have been
created for commuters this semester,
Goldfcdcr said.
“Basically,there’sabout 150 com
muter spots available, and there’s a
shuttle service that students have got
to use,” he said.
Although the new lot could hold
only a small number of cars, Goldfcder
said, it would be appreciated by
Harpcr-Schramm-Smith residents.
-
"It’s only 20 more spaces, but that’s
20 more desperately needed spots for
residence hall students,” he said.
Cacak said the new parking area
would benefit commuters more than
Harpcr-Schramm-Smith residents.
Students living in those residence
halls have left a 300-space paved lot
north of the railroad tracks near
Harpcr-Schramm-Smith half empty,
he said.
“We could have made the new lot
a faculty or staff area,” he said, “but
we’re trying to accommodate the stu
dents first.”
