ROGER WELSCH
PRESENTS
FOLKLORE
PROGRAM
Roger Welsch, a professional
folklorist from Nebraska, was on
hand recently to present a
program to Capitol students
concerning pioneer life in
Nebraska and other areas of the
Great Plains. His visit was part of
a course which is currently being
presented by Dr. Jay Anderson
and Prof. Mark Derfman. His
program included a lecture to
the class and an open
presentation of folk singing in
the Gallery Lounge, in which he
played the guitar and banjo
along with short commentaries
on the origins of many of the
selections.
Mr. Welsch, who teaches at
Nebraska Wesleyan in Lincoln,
Nebraska, is considered to be the
foremost authority on pioneer
life in Nebraska and the Great
Plains area. His interest in the
field of folklore has stemmed
from the fact that his ancestors,
of German-Russian descent,
were among the pioneers who
settled in the Great Plains. He
has written several books about
pioneer life, including SOD
WALLS, TREASURY OF
NEBRASKA PIONEER
FOLKLORE, and SHINGLING
THE FOG & OTHER PLAINS
LIES. Along with his books, he
has turned out one record
entitled "Sweet Nebraska Land,"
which Pete Seger helped him
produce. Mr. Welsch is also
considered to be the American
authority on folk brewing and
wine making a fact which is
substantiated by a 50 gallon
barrel of dandelion wine in the
basement of his home. Another
of his many interests is the study
of the tribes of Indians of the
Plains area. He is one of the few
people who have ever been
accepted as a member of the
Omaha Indian tribe, and the
Peyote cult.
Mr. Welsch's visit to Capitol
was arranged for and funded by
the Cultural Affairs Committee,
and the Social Science program.

Parking Fee
(Continued from page 1)
The SGA proposal at $7.50
per year would make up the
deficit in a little over five years.
In that light, the payments
would be spread out over a
period of time allowing for a
"maximized use by a more
generalized population," Spicher
said. He was sure that the "five
year plan" would work when
increased enrollments are taken
into account with the
assumption that more students
would buy stickers because of
the lesser sticker cost and the
idea that parking in the main lot
in back of the classroom
building is more convenient.

Prof. Gilpin Organizes
Capitol Campus, under the
direction of Prof. Clem Gilpin,
will stage a "Model United
Nations" on March 2,3, and 4.
Approximately 15 area
secondary schools will send 25
"delegations" to the convention.
Contemporary world issues
provide the basis for the
program which is sponsored by
'the United Nations Association
of Harrisburg, and Capitol's
Black Student Union and Delta
Tau Kappa.
Because of the limited
personnel, the "Model UN."
will not operate with all of the
various components of the
actual United Nations. Only the
General Assembly and three
main committees will be
included. Capitol Campus
students will serve as chairmen
of the committees and as
Assembly officers, as well as
helping to plan the event.
The tentative agenda calls for
an initial meeting of the
Assembly on Friday, March 2,
and then meetings of the
committees. The committees
are: Political and Securit) ;
Economic and Finance; and
Social, Human Relations and
Culture. Each delegation may
submit a resolution in the
committee for debate. "If it is
approved by that committee, it
is then presented to the General
Assembly for further debate,"
Gilpin states. Each delegation is
comprised of three high school
students.
THE CAPITO LIST
Currently, students may park off
campus (at the elementary
school on Wharton Ave.) and at
the residence halls iand in Meade
Heights for free.
Spicher added that the
proposed fee is roughly
equivalent to payments made by
part-time undergraduate and
graduate students. However, no
mention of a reduction in their
fee was included in the SGA
resolution.
The next step along the line is
Ferguson's task force from
which the resolution, if it passes,
continues through the University
bureaucracy.

'Model U.N.'
Resolutions will deal with
issues and problems confronting
certain committees in the actual
United Nations. For example,
the Political and Security
Committee will deal with
problems such as peace-keeping
forces (Such as the one charged
with upholding the ceasefire in
Indochina), disarmament, and
refugees. The Economics and
Finance Commit ee will
concentrate on general economic
development and proportional
aid by countries to the United
Nations. The third Committee
will discuss global pollution,
human rights, population
control, and problems with
drugs.
Prof. Gilpin has been
organizing the program since
October. But all has not gone
well. He stated he sent
invitations to over 60 area
secondary schools and has
received favorable replies from
only 15. Support by students at
Capitol Campus has also left
much to be desired. But it is
hoped that after the initial
publicity, more students will
,participate as there is much
work to be done in the next few
weeks. All persons interested in
participating in the "Model
United Nations" may contact
Prof. Gilpin or Harry Franzreb
and Bob Hetzel.
