East Union observes 20 years By Lindsay Young Staff Reporter Emerging from a small area with just a deli and a lounge, the Nebraska East Union will celebrate the 20th an niversary of its much larger and more accessible building this week, f In 1947, nine years after the open ing of the Nebraska Union in 1938, residents of East Campus received their first union facility in the basement of what is now the recreation center. Daryl Swanson, Nebraska Unions director, said that after several years of constant tension, the East Campus residents wep promised a union. jJBut because of increased enroll ment on the City Campus, Nebraska Union was renovated and extended twice before the Nebraska East Union was built in 1977. The Nebraska East Union features a six-lane bowling alley, a cafeteria used by Burr-Fedde residence hall resi dents, a bank, home economics class rooms and offices, a Student Involve ment office, health center facilities and a catering service for both unions. Ray Koziol, assistant director for opportunities in the Nebraska East Union, said the union’s best feature was its architecture. Rich Caruso, coordinator of cam pus programs, said events in the Ne braska East Un|pn are-always success ful and attract umber of stu A 2 „ dents. Events planned for the anniversary will take students back to the union’s inaugural year with prices set at what they would have been in 1977. Today, bowling will be featured at 50 cents a game with 25 cents for shoe rentals. Pool will be played at $1.20. On Wednesday, free cake will be served outside the bakery. Whoever finds the one piece of cake with an edible prize will receive a free catered dinner for two in the Nebraska East Union. Other special food prices will be offered through the week. There will also be a daily drawing for a free cafeteria lunch and a draw ing on Friday for a four-person bowl ing party. % '• ... •£*" - • "'•'T l ■ ...J if' r New Location- i under the Douglas Theater 13th & P St. • 435-3111 I Two other locations at: I
