ASUN resolves fans’ fears
By Brad Davis
Assignment Reporter
Some ASUN senators voiced
their concerns at Wednesday’s meet
ing over a new student group’s plan
to gain priority seats at home foot
ball games.
HuskerFury, a club formed to
support the University of Nebraska
Lincoln’s 22 varsity athletic teams,
awards club members closer seats at
home games as well as seats at
migration and bowl games.
Members pay a $ 15 fee.
Some senators said they feared
students who weren’t part of the
club would be left with bad seats.
Brendan Bussman, a representa
tive of the Athletic Department,
came to the meeting to respond to an
Association of Students of the
University of Nebraska concern
over “special” seating for Fury
members.
Bussman said that although
HuskerFury members will have a
better chance at receiving tickets for
/N 1 •
the migration and bowl games, they
will not be guaranteed a ticket.
About 40 percent of the NU vs.
KU migration game tickets will be
designated for Fury members,
Bussman said.
In other business, ASUN showed
its support for the Nebraska football
team by passing a bill.
Government Bill No. 9, titled
“Cornhuskers Rule,” says the
Huskers “have been, are, and will
remain to be the most dominant col
lege football team in the nation.”
Two senators voted against the
“just-for-fun” bill.
The bill, which was submitted by
President Curt Ruwe, predicts
another national championship sea
son to commemorate Coach Tom
Osborne’s 25th year of coaching.
In other ASUN news:
■ Tailgate parties sponsored by
ASUN begin this Saturday so fans

UycJist promotes veggies
By Josh Funk
Assignment Reporter
In mid-October, President
Clinton and Speaker of the House
Newt Gingrich will receive a special
delivery: a veggie burger.
Vegetarian Mike Krasovec of
Santa Monica, Calif., is bicycling
from Los Angeles to New York to
promote vegetarianism.
He then will stop in Washington
to deliver the veggie burger as well as
a challenge to Gingrich and Clinton.
Krasovec wants them to compete
in a contest to see who can lose the
most inches from their waistlines.
Krasovec stopped in Lincoln on
Wednesday as part of his journey.
Since July 4 Krasovec has hiked
more than 1,500 miles on his way to
Lincoln. He said he averaged 50 to
100 miles a day.
As a member of the Santa Monica
College Vegetarian Club, Krasovec
came up with the idea of a cross
country bicycle ride to support vege
tarianism.
Krasovec hopes to demonstrate
the positive effects vegetarianism has
on health.
“Heart disease is the main cause
of death in America, but there is no
cholesterol or saturated fat in plants,”
Krasovec said, “so vegetarians are far
less likely to develop any kind of
health problems.”
After two years as a vegetarian
Krasovec said he felt better than ever.
“I don’t even get colds any more
now that I’ve become a vegetarian,
and I just feel better,” he said.
Krasovec said he is also a big
believer in human transportation, like
bikes.
“I can’t see driving a car across
town to the gym to ride a stationary
bike there,” Krasovec said. “Why not
ride around town for exercise?”
