Calf That Started 4 H Career Shapes NU Leader
University of Nebraska Chancellor D B Varner credits a Jersey calf bought for ten dollars with launching his 4 H involvement. He recalls growing up poor in Texas, studying at Texas A&M, Michigan, and Nebraska, and says 4 H opened doors for him. He noted Nixon praised NU students during a visit and praised the student body’s responsibility amid a peaceful gathering.

Cable bill faces opposition from Nebraska broadcasters
The Nebraska Broadcasters Association opposes LB82 allowing cities to authorize cable service by permit or franchise, with a Feb 5 hearing on LB257 county regulation. Sen. Terry Carpenter backs a permit with referendum option, while Omaha critics urge voter choice amid concerns of cream skimming and urban bias. The Scottsbluff Star-Herald critiques Sen. Robert Clark for a “closed mind” stance on abortion legislation, urging closer study rather than quick condemnation.
