He’s not having any. The only meat that UNL’s director of housing food service will taste Thursday will be from a can of stew. “My Thanksgiving meals will con sist of a Sausage and Egg McMuffin, Dinty Moore beef stew and macaroni and cheese,” said Burke, whose fam ily will be visiting relatives in Minne sota. “My wife picked up things she knew 1 couldn’t screw up,” said the man in charge of feeding thousands of resi dence hall students. Other campus and local officials will dine on more traditional fare. Gov. Ben Nelson will host a group of 30 family and friends at his man sion Thursday, but he won’t spend the day over a hot stove. Mansion chef Henri Opp will do the dirty work. Their meal will include homemade whipped cream and a turkey donated by the Nebraska Turkey Federation and state poultry producers. Nelson’s press secretary, Dara Troutman, said the only variety of pie to be served would be pumpkin, “so he’d better like it.” Association of Students of the Uni “My wife ivill be doing all the cooking, though. I'm not much of a cook, and she's very good with turkey." ROBERT ALLEN NU Regent versity of Nebraska President Shawntell Hurtgen will have turkey, of course, and ham in her hometown of Sioux Falls, S.D. But the Hurtgen table also will feature a few Syrian dishes such as grape leaves wrapped around rice and meat and a tabouli salad. “And there will be olives all over the place,” she said. “You know how fattening those are.” Interim Chancellor Joan Leitzel will serve turkey and traditional fixins’ to relatives from Indiana and Ohio. “Thanksgiving meals generally aren’t too gourmet,” she said. “It won’t be a big Betty Crocker thing.” Although pumpkin pie will be one of the choices available, Leitzel con siders her apple pie to be the best. Mayor Mike Johanns will travel to Elkhart, Ind., to visit his mother-in law. “It’s just turkey with all the trim mings,” he said (about the planned meal, not his in-laws). Will Johanns don an apron? “Oh yes, I’ll do the carving.” Speaking of kitchen masters, NU Athletic Director Bill Byrne said he’s done all the cooking at his house for the past six years. He plans to barbecue his bird in the backyard Thursday to feed eight hun gry people. In a bold move, Byrne wi 11 not offer his guests pumpkin pie. “Cherry and lemon meringue pies,” he said. “Nope, no pumpkin.” NU Regent Robert Allen of Hastings won’t follow Byrne’s ex ample. “My wife will be doing all the cook ing, though,” he said. “I’m not much of a cook, and she’s very good with turkey. “She’s a better cook than she real izes, but, then again, most American women are good cooks.” Law & Order Argument over car keys leads to stabbing ByJeffZeleny Senior Reporter A Lincoln woman was arrested Sunday night on two felony counts in connection with the stabbing of her boyfriend, police said.
