Woman cited for neglect A Lincoln woman was cited for child neglect after police found feces-covered towels in her bathroom sink and 10-year-old son’s room. Lincoln police and child pro tective services contacted the mother at her apartment in the 4700 block of Baldwin Avenue, where she lives with her two chil dren, Lincoln Police Sgt. Ann Heermann said. Following up on reports of unsanitary conditions, the offi cers found the living room clut tered with video tapes and dis carded snacks, along with the feces-covered towels. The mother, Michele Hallman, 31, said her son had a sanitary problem. Hallman was cited for child neglect, but no action was taken. i—" -—-——-—— Couple arrested for meth An anonymous tip led Lincoln police to 35 grams of methamphetamine in one cou ple’s house Monday night.

CFA also decreased the union’s request by recommending to fill the art gallery with student work. If profession al art was included, there would be costs for insurance and exhibits. Campus Recreation Center Students also may see noticeable differences with the Campus Recreation Center. CFA denied campus rec’s request for a $1 increase to help pay for equip ment replacement and repairs, Campus Recreation Center Director Stan Campbell said. Campbell said wo of the tennis courts near Cather and Pound residence halls have no nets this year because the courts are unsafe. “(Those courts) are in a state where it is not wise to put a lot of money into repairs,” Campbell said. “They need to be replaced.” Next fall, campus rec might have to take nets off two more Cather/Poimd courts and an East Campus court, Campbell said. He also said Stairmasters are so worn out that replacements might be cheaper than repairs. Campbell said he would meet with the Campus Recreation Center Advisory Board at the semester's end to ask what changes it would like. Campus rec will get about 32 cents, or 0.8 percent, more per student each semester to cover operating expenses such as utilities, wages and operating , hours, which were cut this spring. Including money for salaries and fewer students at UNL, the total increase was about 5 percent Campus rec was denied funds for increased services at Injury Prevention and Care. UiuyeQ4& Programs Council President Jamie Gaffney said UPC asked for $8,000 more for its mul ticultural fund, but did not receive it However, Gaffney said UPC’s 6 per cent budget increase denial would not mean fewer multicultural events. UPC will take money from other funds to support such events. To save more money, UPC probably I will co-sponsor events and may cut down on Thursday night Crib events. But Gaffney said UPC would continue to have an event on either Thursday, Friday or Saturday night UPC did receive its 8 percent increase to provide student organiza tions money. Lied Center The Lied Center for Performing Arts received all of its requested budget increase. Lied Center Director Charles Bethea said he asked for a 3 percent increase to cover ticket inflation and costs of events and to offset die 50 per cent discount for UNL students. During the 1997-98 season at the Lied Center, UNL students paid $165,543 for tickets that, bought at reg ular prices, would have cost $279,046. University Health Center University Health Center Director Linda Herrmann said that for the third year in a row, die UHC did not request an increase because it efficiently plans its budget for staffing and cuts hours. It may consider slightly increasing charges for specialty services such as JonFrank/DN dermatology, gynecology and allergy, Herrmann said. UHC will receive an increase of about 6 percent to cover salaries and money to offset decreased enrollment ASUN ASUN received all of its requested 2.6 percent increase, which was raised to about 6 percent to include salaries and die reduced enrollment The money mainly would be used to cover operating expenses and to change the current part-time attorney position in Student Legal Services to another full-time position. Daily Nebraskan The Daily Nebraskan asked for an 8 percent increase but received 6 percent The Daily Nebraskan expects the cost of paper to increase, but CFA members said that may not happen. Daily Nebraskan General Manager Dan Shattil said if the cost of papa: did increase more than anticipated, the $1.25 discount students receive for advertisements might be decreased to offset the cost.
