THIS SATURDAY NIGHT WWII Reporter St. John Gives View on Democracy Robert St. John, World War II correspondent and best-selling au- thor, will present "This Challeng- ing World." Saturday night, Feb. 25. St. John has completed over two million miles of travel while reporting war, revolution and re- construction in more than 60 coun- tries. He has lectured since die ear- ly days of World War II. In recent years he has divided his time be- tween gathering stories abroad, putting his findings down on pa- per and presenting them at one- night engagements around Amer- ica. St. John first became interna- Visiting College Band Plays Sunday Night The Augsburg College Band of Minneapolis, Minn., will present a concert at Union College Sunday, Feb. 26, at 7:30 p.m. The band is conducted by Mayo Savold. Savold has directed both instru- mental and choral group at Augs- burg College since 1952. He prac- tices two unique innovations in band training: an unusual place- ment of instruments within the band which improves clarity and unity of sound and the use of band members as a choral group. The band has performed for au- diences throughout the U.S. Their repertoire ranges from concert band literature to popular marches. Of special interest this year is the number by Peter Sivanich. Sivan- ieh was so impressed by a concert given by the Augsburg Concert Band that he wrote a four-part work especially for them, "The Sign of the Cross." tionally famous as an NBC war correspondent, broadcasting from London during the bombings and later from other key cities. St. John has written 15 books and is die only writer known to have penned biographies of both Ben-Gurion and Nasser. His first literary work, From the Land of the Silent People, which was pub- lished in 1942, tells of his early war experiences in Europe as a corre- spondent for the Associated Press. This book was translated into five languages and became a Literary Guild selection. Africa and die Middle East are the two areas of the world on which St. John has chosen to con- centrate. In his lecture, he takes his listeners to diese and other areas where progress is being made in forming a more democratic life for all men, and at the same time, he reports where free men of our day are making their most serious mis- takes. Dr. Stanley Sturges, a returned missionary from Nepal, will pre- sent a slide program on his expe- riences in Nepal as a prelude for die student missionary fund raising campaign which will begin next week. Dr. Sturges was chosen in a recent year as one of the ten out- standing young men by the U.S. Junior Chamber of Commerce. The Student Missionary Commit- tee, under the direction of Don Rodi, will appeal for $1750 to sup- port the two student missionaries for 1967-68 in chapel Monday, Feb. 27. About $1200 of the $1750 is for travel expenses. The remain- ing costs are for film and develop- ing processes, health vaccinations, passports and visas. The fund-raising campaign will continue through the week. Wom- en will solicit funds from the men in South Hall by calling them down to die lobby, and the men will do the same in Rees Hall. Waller Discusses Second Advent The Second Advent as a subject of English poetry will be discussed by Dr. John O. Waller of Andrews University when he visits Union College next Monday. According to Dr. Verne Wehtje, chairman of die English depart- ment, die presentation will trace po- etic treatment of the subject from the ninth century Anglo-Saxon poet Cynewulf to the present time. Dr. Waller, chairman of the English department at Andrews, is espe- cially interested in die Second Ad- vent in the poetry of the nineteenth century poet Christina Rossetti. The paper will be presented at 7:30 Monday evening in the Rees Hall assembly room. The session is open to the public, Dr. Wehtje said. While on campus Dr. Waller will welcome interviews widi stu- dents interested in graduate study in English. Council Investigates Book Exchange The student book exchange was discussed at the Student Council meeting, Feb. 14. Jere Webb was asked to present the results of a research paper he had done on the subject. He explained that it would be cheaper for the student if there were a book exchange. Under the existing system, a stu- dent buys a book for its full cost. He may sell it to the Nebraska Book Store for 50% of that price, and they in turn sell it for 75% of the full price. Books on an exchange basis would be bought from the student for 60% of their original price and sold for 65%. This exchange would be directed by the treasurer of the ASB with a faculty sponsor. It would be open at the end of each semester when most trading in books is done. The student would receive either cash or another book for the same price in exchange for his book. If the book does not sell, it would be returned. The ASB would make a profit of five per cent where the present book company is making 25%. UC's Student Missionaries Karla Krampert, sophomore Eng- lish major, will be spending her summer as a student missionary for the Inter-American Division. The major part of her term will be spent on the San Bias Islands off the coast of Panama. She will be teach- ing church school and assisting in the medical clinic there. Jerry Mitchell, junior pre-med student, will be stationed for a year at Belo Horizonte, state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. During July and August Mitchell will probably be working with Dr. Leslie Sco- field on the mission launch, Lu- minar II. The 50-foot launch will sail die Sao Francisco River dur- ing those two months and then stay in port for repairs. Mitchell will also help set up a pharmaceutical lab at the Belo Horizonte Mis- sion Station. The missionaries have asked him to come by boat and bring medicine and supplies with him. Report from Felkel In a recent letter, John Felkel, UC's current student missionary at Taiwan Missionary College, Taipei, Taiwan, said, "I am teaching seven classes at Taiwan Missionary Col- lege (TMC) this year. Three of these are college English, one sen- ior high school chemistry class and two junior high school science class- es. To teach these classes I first had to learn a type of phonetic alpha- bet, then leam to pronounce the Chinese characters. I have been working at this language problem but I haven't licked it by any means yet. I doubt that when I return to the states that I will have advanc- ed much farther. I can get along and that is about all. Speaking the Chinese language is not really hard to leam, but to write the language involves memorizing 40,000 differ- ent characters. Really, the average educated Chinese only knows about 5,000 or more of these characters. "The food here is out of this world. I eat three Chinese meals a day and I haven't even begun to tire of the food. Fruit is cheap and in abundance—guavas, papayas, ba- nanas, die most delicious oranges, pineapple diat is 100% better than Hawaii's and on and on with all kinds of mouth-watering diings. My food bill usually runs about $400 NT a month which amounts to $10 US money. Now that would be hard to take for a month's food bill at Union! I also had to leam to eat with chopsticks, but for $30 difference between Union's food prices and TMC's food prices, I learned that very quickly." John ends his letter with a mis- sionary's plea for more workers: "Oh, what a great need there is to finish the work so Christ can come soon. Only 75 to 100 miles from where I am sitting right now, there is the great internal strife of Com- munist China. How long this island will remain in peace I do not know." GREs Probe '67 Seniors' Knowledge-and Patience Graduate Record Exams (GRE) were given to the seniors of Union College Sunday, Feb. 19. Jerry Thayer, in charge of the testing service, explained that the Graduate Record Exams are de- signed to serve two basic purposes: they are a prerequisite for admit- tance to many graduate schools and they serve as an evaluation of the adequacy of the educational program being offered at the col- lege. Not all colleges give Graduate Record Exams. The cost for taking the exam individually is between ten and fifteen dollars. Because of the large number of exams given at one time when a college admin- isters the test to the senior class as a whole, the cost is appreciably reduced. One section of the exam involves a test of aptitude; the other of the two sections is an exam testing the student's knowledge of his major area of study. After being eval- uated at the Educational Testing Service in Princeton, N. J., the re- sults are returned to die students. The college also receives a distri- bution of scores and the average score attained in each major field of study by the students tested. "The results of the exams have shown in the past that Union com- pares favorably with other col- leges," says Thayer. Every graduate school has a slightly different usage for the test. A few schools do not require the exams to be taken, and only certain departments within some graduate schools require the exams. The exam results are confidential and can not be transferred to stu- dents' employers. Only the grad- uate schools of their choice will re- ceive the results. 223 CLOCK TOWER February 16, 1967 BOOKSHELF fVCLOCK JOWCR Evard Reviews Reported UFO Sightings ^^^^^^^^^^^^^J BY DR.

BEVERLY BEEM EDITOB TWYLA SCHLOTIHAUER MANAGING EDITOR KARLA KRAMPERT ASSOCIATE EDITOR RON HASSEN LINDA BRENNAN NEWS EDITORS J4elp a Qrowing, Voice Soon the general assembly of the ASB will decide how the one thousand dollars reserved for special projects will be spent. The project uppermost on the list of proposed projects is a suppy of records to KVUC-FM. The editors feel that several considerations make this the most logical choice. Radio stations are able to purchase most record albums, often costing from four to five dollars apiece, for one dollar apiece. This means the ASB would be able to purchase from 900 to 1000 records which on the regular market would cost from three to four thousand dollars. The ASB would be able to more than triple the purchasing power of its investment, not on a long-range plan, but immediately. The ASB would actually be investing the equivalent of three to four thousand dollars. This investment could be put to many possible other uses. Cartridge tapes could be made to loan for classroom and stu- dent use. The Student Center, dormitories and the music de- partment among others would benefit from this. An ASB music library would add to the cultural tone of the campus. But we feel the most compelling reason is the opportunity offered for continued growth and involvement. The KVUC antenna and transmitter are ready to broadcast. All that is needed is the final word from FCC. Their greatest need in their first year of operation will be an ample supply of records. This proposal not only supplies the need, but gives the ASB a voice in the control of the growing Kampus Voice of Union College. The ASB must eventually become more involved in the development of KVUC. The sooner it does the more active part it can have in its control and operation. We would suggest that now an appropriate committee be appointed to select and pur- chase these records. Later, in the pending revision of the ASB constitution and in the development of the KVUC working policy, the ASB can take on an active part in the control and operation of the campus station. The editors feel that a vote for supplying records to KVUC is very much in order because it will triple the purchas- ing power of the ASB investment, increase the cultural tone of the campus, help an aspect of campus life that will soon be very prominent and involve the ASB in an increasingy influ- ential voice of Union College. Cclitor'd -Notebook The editors want to express their appreciation for reader interest in the Letters to the Editor column. The CLOCK TOWER feels that this column is one of the most effective means of ful- filling its function as a voice of the students. But in order to provide space for everyone to speak, it is necessary to ask writ- ers to limit their letters to approximately 200 words. This will allow more space for more letters.

J. Fike Financial Advisor Dr. Paul W. Joioe BY DR. RENE EVARD John G. Fuller, in Incident at Exeter, gives a thorough report of an investigation of Unidentified Flying Objects (UFO) seen around Exeter, N. H., in the fall of 1965. The author himself interviewed a number of reliable individuals who have see flying saucers in the U.S. In all accounts the UFOs appear as large objects, oval in shape, as big or bigger than a B-52 bomber, with red lights all around the air- craft. Some have reported the body to be made of a metal-like sub- stance, with small windows through which appear strange crea- tures. According to most of the re- ports these UFOs seem to be able to move at very high speeds, and yet are capable of remaining mo- tionless in the air. Also investigated is the account of an incident which took place in 1961. A Mr. and Mrs. Hill were driving at night, south from Can- ada into New Hampshire when they stopped to observe an UFO flying above their car. Then "both the Hills heard a strange electronic beeping sound and began to feel a strange tingling sensation. It was at diis point that their memory was blocked completely for a two- hour period of total amnesia. Un- der hypnosis they related they had NOWI Admit there's not a shadow of a doubtl Admit itl been taken aboard a strange craft, assured that they would not be harmed, given a physical examina- tion by a group of humanoid crea- tures and released with the assur- ance that they would have no con- scious memory whatever of the ex- perience." Throughout the book, the author tries to associate the UFO sightings with the presence of high power lines in the neighborhood. This is probably done to prepare the read- er for the climax. Here the author claims that die great power black- out of Nov. 9, 1965, of the North- east section of the U.S. was direct- ly caused by UFOs. Although most of the book is rather repetitious, it may be fasci- nating for someone interested in flying saucers. The book is well documented, and the author makes a serious effort to gather his in- formation from reliable witnesses and from consultations with U.S. Air Force officials. Radar reports and scrambling jets chasing the objects indicate that the Air Force is aware of their existence, but unable to do any- thing about them. The possibility of developmental weapons is elim- inated by the fact that UFOs seem to violate all FAA rules. Also elim- inated is the idea of secret foreign crafts, since violation of air space would have caused an international incident. "The most logical, but still unprovable explanation is that UFOs are interplanetary spaceships under intelligent control," con- cludes Fuller. Living in the time of the end, is this the only way that we can ex- plain the nature of the UFOs? J^etterA to the Cditor Quotes to the Editor, Vol. II Last week I wrote you a letter regarding the dispute on the cam- pus concerning worship periods. In that letter I implied that student worship periods in the dormitories should coincide with family wor- ship in the home. And I stated that morning and evening worship adds up to 14 worship periods each week exclusive of Sabbath church serv- ices and personal private devotions, while you were clamoring against eight or ten worship periods each week. Since I wrote that letter I have decided to make a somewhat care- ful study of Mrs. White's writings concerning family worship. And after making that study I am still convinced that there should be morning and evening student fam- ily worship in the dormitories ev- ery day, seven days of every week; and I am more convinced of the importance of it. I am sure that you believe in Mrs. White's teaching, else you would not be attending a school established because of her teaching; and especially, you would not be the editor of a paper which is sup- posed to represent a God-ordained instituiton. The only difficulty is that you are simply not informed, and there is no disgrace in not be- ing informed. The disgrace lies in refusing to become informed, and I'm sure you don't fit in that cat- egory. So for that reason, I have decided to send you some of the quotations found in Mrs. White's writings on the subject of family worship; still with the idea in mind that worship periods there at the school are simply school family worship. You will find in these quotations support for your premise that the worship periods, as presendy being conducted, are perhaps not creat- ing "a favorable attitude toward worship." However, nowhere can you find support for the argument that students should not be requir- ed to attend worship; and there is plenty of evidence against your ar- gument that morning worship should not be held at a specified time; to quote you, "a rigid 7:00 a.m. or even 8:00 a.m. worship pe- riod." These quotations state quite plainly that just the opposite is true. I feel deeply concerned about this problem. Union College was or- dained by God. If we lose sight of that fact, then we might as well give up our whole system of re- ligion. God intended that Union College should be different from the colleges of the world. And the worship of God is the thing that makes the college different. In these last days of earth's history Satan is doing everything in his power to make our people believe that following God's implicit word is not necessary, that we need not be so different from the world. Modem man is ashamed to admit that he needs God dady. His ego gets a tremendous boost when he can tell himself, and any one who will listen, that he can take care of himself without help. And he will do everything he can to defend his self-righteous position, even to ridiculing with implied suggestions of feigned piousness those who are trying amidst indifference and downright rebellion to hold God's standards high. I agree with you, fines for ab- sence from worship are not the answer. But neither is agitation against worship attendance simply because attendance is inconvenient or the presentation is not interest- ing. Much of the work that we have to do to earn our daily bread is dull and uninteresting; and there are days when life itself be- comes a dreary and monotonous existence, but you haven't taken up the cudgel against living. It seems to me, if agitation and criticism must be used, it would be better to agitate for more inspiring worship presentation (which you are doing), a more willing worship attendance and a greater conse- cration to God's will, coupled with a heart-searching pleading for a lessening of the murmuring and fretfulness which create nothing but discontent among too many of the student body. God's work will go forward. You may be able to hin- der it by your agitation, but you cannot stop it. When we begin to argue against something, let's always be sure that we know whereof we speak, and that we are not, in our ignorance, advertising to the world that we have not acquainted ourselves with our Bibles and the writings of the Spirit of Prophecy, and that we are not aware of what God expects of us. Let us never be guilty of fight- ing God. Mavis Finch 1727 Court St. Sioux City, Iowa (Editor's Note: For the sake of space, only the references are giv- en.)

Fowler and Aca- demic Dean E. B. Ogden attended a board meeting at Southwestern Union College, Keene, Tex., Feb. 20-22. They met to discuss the budget, building expansion plans, teacher needs and employment at SUC. President Fowler then flew to Denver, Colo., where he attended the Porter Hospital board meeting. His last stop before returning to Union today will be the Boulder Sanitarium board meeting in Boul- der, Colo. • Kenneth Spaulding, assistant pro- fessor of physics, spoke at chapel, Feb. 20, on the second Beatitude. Spaulding stated that mourning is necessary for Christian growth since the type of mourning consid- ered here is not only that of be- reavement, but the true heart sor- row for sin. Spaulding presented the second in a series of talks on the Beat- itudes. • Euel Atchley, associate secretary of the General Conference tem- perance department, started the "Week of Healthful Living" in chapel, Feb. 13. He stated that by temperance in eating, sleeping and exercise, a person could double his energy. • Glenn Sackett, a sophomore the- ology major, replaced Sharon Dunbar as representative at large in the Student Council. Sharon did not return second semester be- cause of illness. Sackett ranked second in the ASB election for the post, and the change was made on this basis. • The film "Saturday Place," which depicts the hazards of drinking while driving, was reshown in ehapel Feb. 17 as a part of Tem- perance Week. Dan Goddard, Temperance Club president, said he hoped students would feel a desire to inform the young people in the schools in Lincoln of the hazards of alcohol. • Probe, a Sabbath afternoon dis- cussion group, met last week to discuss a Seventh-day Adventist's relationship to health standards. According to A1 Mazat, chair- man, Probe uses guest speakers, student panels and group discussion in an effort to search for practical answers to current problems. Future discussion topics are non- combatancy, infant baptism and Adventist standards. Probe meets every other week at 4:00 p.m. in the Student Center.

Tasty companions to any vegetable-High protein at low cost! BY BONNIE HARVEY My topic in this report is "The Tribal Customs and Rituals of New- bold College Concerning the So- cial World and Whirl." So, if you will all come over here and sit by Lord Nelson's statue for a while we will have a little chat. In my six months of living among the natives, I have observed that social gain with die opposite sex depends upon the extent of one's mastery of the art called "Making Oneself Available Any Time of Day or N . . . well . . . Day." You see, it is not in accord- ance with European Ceremonial Law to ask a girl out a week or five days in advance. It is also un- ethical to ask out a variety of girls within a short period of time for Matthews, Murray To Present Recital this is looked upon with scorn and given such terms as "too Ameri- can," "loose" or "superficial." Most boy-girl relationships have such inauspicious beginnings as a chance meeting at the water foun- tain, a sharing of hymn books in Sabbath school or other such seem- ingly unfruitful events. I have heard it said that Newbold's theme song is, "Let Me Call You Sweet- heart (for I have sat next to you five class periods in a row!)" The Saturday night program is a social festival in America. However, it plays a lesser role in European courtship. As I have previously stated, a date in advance is a rare luxury. If one desires a date, he must park himself by the entrance of the auditorium just before the program and look lost. If he con- verses with a girl until the program starts it is understood that they "have a date." They then enter the program and live happily ever af- ter, or at least until the program is over. Upon the realization of this important principle, the American girls were hesitant. Hence, the Sat- urday night "festival" became the Saturday night "dilemma." How- ever, by now we have adopted the elastic forbearance of the grand old Chinese proverb which says, "When you are in Rome and you do not do as the Romans do—you are sunkl" One learns to grin and bear it when he finds himself with a partner on which he did not plan. However, in spite of such dis- advantages, some things do happen at Newbold which are really heart- warming. For example, yesterday, Valentine's Day, Virlys Nelson re- ceived three pink roses from an unknown admirer! It is unfortunate that Valentine only has his day once a year. If one, by chance, actually ac- quires a steady date, (which is quite improbable, for only 13 out of a 100 boys have campus girl friends) his problems are not over yet. At Newbold, there is no place to "put yourselves." There are no such conveniences as date parlors. The lobbies of each dorm are "open house" on Sabbath only. Conse- quently, upon the acquiring of a partner, one finds that he takes many, many walks. Sandy March operates the controls of KVUC, the Kampus Voice of Union College. ASB Grants $IOOO to KVUC The Student Council is studying how best to spend the $1000 in its special projects fund. The project uppermost in consideration is a grant to KVUC for a supply of records. Plans will soon be submit- ted to the general assembly for consideration. According to Arthur Hauck, chairman of the speech department which houses and operates KVUC, the greatest need of a new radio station is an ample supply of rec- ords. To meet the need, radio sta- tions can purchase most albums for $1 apiece. $1000 would buy from 900-1000 albums. The groundwork for the propos- ed radio station has already been laid, according to Hauck. UC offers formal course work in radio elec- tronics, broadcasting and journal- ism and has operated a campus carrier current station for the last eight years. These offerings have satisfied the demands of the speech department, but according to Hauck, the radio station feels that the college has a responsibility to a larger community. KVUC, the Kampus Voice of Union College, has three principal purposes in its program to establish and operate an educational FM station, according to Hauck. First, an educational FM radio station would provide a broader scope of educational, cultural and spiritual enrichment, not only for those on campus, but for the com- on campus would give local talent an opportunity for experience and recognition. Thirdly, it would pro- vide a practical laboratory for stu- dents. Not only could a campus radio station supplement the existing commercial media by broadcasting only classical music, but it could compliment the existing news serv- ices by providing depth analyses and group discussions on specific issues. The humanities, arts and scienc- es could find expression through KVUC. College departments will be asked to sponsor a 15-minute weekly feature about its field of study. These features will form KVUC's "In the News" series which has already begun. On Mon- days at 5:00 p.m. Kenneth Spauld- ing, acting chairman of the physics department, presents "Physics in the News." Thursday at 5:00 pan. members of the music department present "Music in the News." By a 15-minute weekly public affairs feature and by daily an- nouncements when necessary, KVUC-FM could promote a con- tinual community awareness of what is going on in the social, civic and educational functions in the community. Hauck said, "Features of scho- lastic and community interest are being planned, but the ASB's vote to supply record albums will give KVUC its musical voice." munity. Secondly, a radio station A two-piano concert will be pre- sented on Saturday night, Mar. 4, at 8:15 p.m. in the Union College auditorium by Angeline Matthews, instructor in piano, and Robert Murray, assistant professor of mu- sic. "T h e music program contains various types of compositions which will have something for everyone," stated Murray. "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" by J. S. Bach will begin the concert. The special feature of the evening will be Bartok's "Sonata" for two pianos and percussion. The two pianists will be assisted on the per- cussion by Karen Astner and Ron Jensen. According to Murray this work exploits the variety of rhythms possible in a single com- position. A suite for two pianos, "Scara- mouche," written by the contem- porary French composer, Milhaud, will also be presented. The well- known Strauss waltz, "The Blue Danube," will conclude the eve- ning's program. Miss Matthews filled a vacancy in the music faculty staff made last year by Mr. Murray, who took leave in order to take graduate work at the University of Mich- igan. Both again returned this school year to the music staff. 225 CLOCK TOWER February 16, 1967 'Way Out In Space' Amateur Hour Theme "A Rendezvous in Space" is the theme for this year's Amateur Hour Mar. 11. This year's theme is planned to encourage the unusual, to explore new dimensions in entertainment, according to Arthur Hauck, spon- sor of the Programs Committee. He described the program as "way out." Larry Vandeman, Programs Committee chairman, said his com- mittee would like to see a wide va- riety of talent. Tumbling, dramatic readings and other uncommon acts would add to the effect of the un- usual. There will be a grand prize and a prize for division winners, but the amounts have not been set as yet. Vandeman stressed that every entry will receive $5 regardless of standing in the final judging. The judging will be based on audience applause and the judgment of a panel of judges. Dr. Melvin Hill, professor of music, and student Jim Wentworth will be in charge of die musical auditions and Arthur Hauck, asso- ciate professor of speech, will con- duct the other auditions. The emcee will not be announc- ed until the time of the program be- cause he is a part of die many un- usual diings planned, according to Vandeman. Penitentiary Inmates Hold Campus Convocation Friday The graceful arches of the library addition take shape as construction continues. Deadline Set for Library Extra August 15, 1967, is die target date set for completion of the new Union College Library addition. According to Miss Floda Smith, li- brarian, the library should be using the new facilities by Sept. 1. The main floor of die new addi- tion will house the library offices, a new card catalog, new circula- tion desk, charge desk and more work room. More stacks and study carrels are part of the second floor plans. According to Miss Smith, Speech Dept. Offers Developmental Reading A development reading course is being offered by the speech depart- ment under the direction of Arthur Hauck, chairman of the speech de- partment, and Mary Horton, lab as- sistant. The purpose is to increase the reading and comprehension levels of studying and pleasure reading. Hauck says that diis course is de- signed for the below-average reader of 200 words per minute or under. He feels that a person of this cal- iber can build up to 300-400 words per minute widi good comprehen- sion. Hauck feels that there are two basic problems to overcome in the process of developmental reading: the problem of sub-vocal speech, which means the individual says each word to himself, and regres- sion of eye movements, which is the failure to follow a smooth pattern. One of the most important pur- poses of the course is to build up comprehension of die reading ma- terial. To help with diis each series or session is followed by tests. The class meets twice a week for nine weeks. There is no tuition charge, but there is a $5 lab fee and a text for the course. ipgmiii? i^mmmmk TRAIN AT THE MSDWESTS OLDEST AND MOST MODERN BUSINESS COLLEGE FACILITY ^ Professional accounting if Private Secretarial ^ Business Administration if Executive Secretarial if Accounting if Stenographic if General Bnsiness TWO GREAT SCHOOLS COMBINED IN ONE NEW BUILDING LINCOLN SCHOOL of COMMERCE &NBI 1121 "K" STREET LINCOLN, NEBRASKA 432-5315 diere will also be a class-choral room combined to be used by both the library and die music building.
