Bowlin said.
Increasing interest in the arts
helps more than just artists, he said.
Drawing in more well-known art
ists helps galleries and theaters such
as the Sheldon Art Gallery and the
Lied Center for Performing Arts,
he said. The better an artist is known,
the more people wi ll attend an event.
Reducing NEA funding would
make it more difficult for artists to
travel, Bowlin said. The cuts would
have immediate impact on the Lied
Center and the Sheldon because
they would keep some performing
groups and artists from showing
their work, he said.
“Without grants from the NEA,
it would be harder to receive any
other funding,” Bowlin said. “With
out the NEA funding, there would
be higher ticket prices and some
events would just not exist.”
The art activity around Lincoln
has dramatically increased over the

past 25 years, he said. Before 1972,
there had not been a theater group,
a dance company or a symphony in
Lincoln for more than 30 years.
Since then, the arts have become
more available to more Americans,
and the number of students study
ing the arts also has increased.
Frohnmay er ’ s t wo books, ‘ ‘ Lea v

Listeningto the First Amendment,”
deal with the conflict between gov
ernment and the arts and issues of
public importance. He has lectured
extensively at universities across
the country on First Amendment
issues.

Simpson said senior citizens’ spe
cial interest groups have pushed So
cial Security offthe reform table. When
the system runs out of money, he said,
they will ask for an increase in payroll
tax.
“Why? Because they don’t pay
them. You will. You young people
will,” he said.
Speaking to senior citizens in the
audience, Simpson said: “I never put
in more than S874 a year, and neither
did you. And you know it in your gut.
And you’re the ones raising hell at the
meetings.”
Simpson said that debate over pend
ing legislation in Congress would be
rough but would have implications for
years to come.
“The distant future is in the next
few weeks for young people between
18 and 45.”

He said the union expansion and
plaza redesign were complicated
projects that required input from stu
dents and the Broyhill family.
“Usually when you put up a build
ing,” he said, “you plant a few trees
and a few shrubs.”
Students will have a chance to give
their input Wednesday at the Associa
tion of Students of the University of
Nebraska meeting at 6:30 p.m. in Ne
braska East Union.
ASUN President Shawntell
Hurtgen said campus landscape archi
tect Kim Todd would be present to
discuss the changes with students.
UNL officials and representatives
from the Broyhill family will meet
with the architects Thursday and Fri
day to discuss the design of the ex
panded union and renovated plaza.
Daryl Swanson, Nebraska Unions
director, said the design process would
take 10 months. Meetings similar to
this week’s will be held monthly dur
ing that time.
Swanson said he understood that
students who are fond of Broyhill
Fountain wanted a definitive descrip
tion of what would replace it. But such
a description is not available now, he
said.
“Nothing has been proposed or
designed yet,” he said.
Johanns to run for governor
By John Fulwider
Senior Reporter
Mayor Mike Johanns said Sunday
he would not have to give up his office
during his run for governor.
Johanns announced Friday he
would seek the Republican nomina
tion for governor. Gov. Ben Nelson,
who isrunningforU.S. Senate,cannot
run for governor again because he is
limited to two terms.
If Johanns were elected governor
in 1998, the City Council would select
a replacement to serve the rest of his
term as mayor, which ends in May
1999. Then a regular election would
be held to choose Lincoln’s next
mayor.
Johanns said the similarities of the
mayor and governor positions made
him want to run for governor.
“The governor does many things
that are just like what I do every day,”
he said. “It just made a tremendous
amount of sense.”
Johanns said his family was sup
portive of his run for governor. He
said his wife, Stephanie, would cam
paign with him.
His first speaking engagement is
today in Kearney, he said. Johanns
said his goal was to visit all of
Nebraska’s 93 counties by election
time.
“I’m excited to get out and cam
paign statewide,” he said.
Johanns said his campaign and
possible governorship would address
challenges facing Nebraska.
One challenge, lie said, is
Nebraska’s agricultural economy,
which is undergoing changes as Con
gress makes funding adjustments.
Another challenge is providing the
human infrastructure that Nebraska
needs to grow, he said.
“Our great asset in Nebraska is
people,” he said.
“The more people we can keep in
this state, the better off we will be.”

Torched trophy wins
Homecoming first prize
From Staff Reports
The torched Homecoming dis
play won the prize.
When fire was set to the giant,
three-story replica of the Sears
National Championship trophy
early Friday, it looked as if Sigma
Phi Epsilon Fraternity’s hopes of
winning the Homecoming display
contest were extinguished.
But a quick rebuilding effort
earned the fraternity first-place in
the annual display contest.
The wood-based trophy, deco
rated with a black cloth covering,
was set ablaze Friday between 4
a.m. and 6:51 a.m., police said. Fire
officials believe the blaze was in
tentionally lighted.
When fraternity members awoke
Friday, they discovered their
weeklong project had been de
stroyed. As Nebraska alumni and
fans walked down 16th Street Fri
day, a sign painted on a white sheet
that hung behind yellow police tape,
showed fraternity members frustra
tion.
“Torch the Wildcats. And Hell,
