Law & Order
Arrests made in residence halls
By Jeff Zeleny
Senior Reporter
A 23-year-old Lincoln man was
arrested early Wednesday on sus
picion of threatening a UNL stu
dent with a knife in Smith Resi
dence Hall.
Christopher Gant, 3841 N. 17th
St., was arrested on suspicion of
making terroristic threats. He was
released later Wednesday from the
Lancaster County Jail.
University police Sgt. Bill Man
ning said that when Harper Hall
resident Kirk Alloway opened a
stairwell door in Smith Hall about
12:25 a.m. Wednesday, Gant called
him a “fucking • white boy” and.
waved a knife.
Alloway shoved Gant against a
I
wall, police said, until the two
took their fight outside of Smith
Hall. The two men continued their
minor scuffle, police said, but no
one was injured.
Police were unsure what
prompted the argument, whether
Gant was by himself and if the two
men knew each other. Gant is not
a university student. Manning said,
and he should not have been in the
residence hall without an escort.
A charge of making terroristic
threats is a misdemeanor.
Stolen property
Police came empty handed to
answer a 911 hang-up call at an
Abel Hall Residence Hall room
Tuesday evening, but they left with
two street signs.
Two signs — a red and white
No Parking sign and a Drug Free
School Zone sign —were hanging
above the window in Abel Hall
room 944, police said.
Bradley Biehl, 19, and Eric
Gentrup, 18, were arrested on sus
picion of possessing stolen prop
erty, police said. They are sched
uled to appear in court for the
misdemeanor charge Nov. 6.
Gentrup told police a friend gave
him the signs for his birthday.
Manning said, but he declined to
identify the friend. The signs were
confiscated by police.
Manning said police responded
to nearly every abandoned 911
emergency call on campus.
ASUN wants student input for project
By Kasey Kerber
Staff Reporter
ASUN will try to give students a
voice in plans to replace Broyhill
fountain and build a new plaza, the
senate president said at Wednesday
night’s meeting.
“It’s important
that we have in
put on this issue,”
S h a w n t e 1 1
Hurtgen said. If
we don’t, we’ll be
saying that it’s
OK for the uni
I versity to do any
thing it wants.”
--a meeting
planned for Oct. 26-27 will bring
together the architectural firm cho
sen to expand Nebraska Union, mem
bers of the Union Board, faculty and
Association of Students of the Uni
___
versity of Nebraska representative
Brian Kubik.
Each day will feature 14 hours of
meetings and brainstorming from 7
a.m. to 9 p.m.
Many senators had concerns about
future construction, ranging from
whether water would still be used to
whether the Broyhill name would be
used.
Though no details have been fi
nalized, the building of a water sculp
ture or feature, not a fountain, has
been discussed. Local or well-known
artists may be brought in to build the
sculpture.
Senators shouldn ’t worry too much
about whether water is used in the
new structure, said Mark Byars, a
member of the Union Board and part
of the design committee.
“My main concern is-to see some
thing that ties in closely to the univer
sity,” Byars said.

Boxing
Continued from Page 1
Campbell said he talked about
the decision to the club president
at that time. He said he could not
remember whether he had also con
sulted people who supported box
ing on campus.
Confusion about the differences
between amateur and professional
boxing has contributed to Grace’s
difficulties, he said.
He said the objective of ama
teur boxing matches was to score
points, not to injure the opponent.
Thus, he said, the matches are more
safe than professional boxing
matches.
“In professional boxing, it’s kill
the guy.”
Grace has tried talking to other
university officials, he said, but
they have just referred Grace to
either Zatechka or Campbell.
“It jjjst seemed like I’m getting
a lot of runaround,” he said.
Though he is frustrated, Grace
said, he has nothing personal
against Campbell or Zatechka.
“My objective is to try to get
my club on campus,” he said.

Whatever structure replaces
Broyhill Fountain will not carry the
Broyhill name, Hurtgen said.
“Possibly another structure on
campus might be named after the
Broyhill family, but there is already
a naming policy in effect that will
give this one a new name,” she said.
Also discussed at the meeting was
advising. Hurtgen will attend an Ad
missions and Advising Committee
meeting on Oct. 25 to present con
cerns voiced at the meeting.
Such concerns included providing
more advising training for faculty
members, providing an explanation
in the Undergraduate Bulletin of what
forms of advising are available, the
need to establish a student advising
center and a possible double check
system.
A senate bill also was passed rec
ognizing two student organizations,
UNL Boxing and Students for Choice.
Stenberg to probe
Casady’s conduct
in Renteria death
From Staff and Wire Reports
Attorney General Don Stenberg
will investigate Lincoln police Chief
Tom Casady’s conduct in the death
of Francisco Renteria.
The attorney general was asked
Tuesday to look into the highly con
troversial death of the Lincoln His
panic man. In a letter dated Wednes
day, Stenberg said he would make an
exception to a general rule that lim
ited his office’s role into criminal
investigations.
Stenberg said he would only re
view matters involving Casady’s ac
tivities in connection with the
Renteria investigation.
The Oct. 1, 1994, death split the
Lincoln community. An indictment
that alleged Casady withheld infor
mation was thrown out in February.
Two Lincoln police officers and a
fire captain were found innocent of
any wrongdoing in Renteria’s death.
Stenberg said he had assigned
Assistant Attorney General William
Howland to review the Casady case.
