Researchers for the news program were here this week doing preliminary off-camera interviews, although no definite decision has been made by the network about airing the report, according to associate producer Kate Stiassni. 1 The crew checked into the Cornhusker Hotel Wednesday and checked out late Friday morning.

Commonwealth depositors apparently were not contacted during this trip. Barbara Fisher, who wrote a letter to "60 Minutes" asking for the investigation, and who had been in contact with Stiassni, said she had not been contacted by the researchers this week. "Some people are shaking in their boots out there right now," Fisher said, "and they should be." No one at the Nebraska Depositors Action Committee was contacted, according to Mary Croissant, a member of the committee. "They seem to be more interested in the technical and legal aspects (of Commonwealth) than the human side right now," Croissant said. "If they choose to follow the story, I would think they would contact depositors later." ships -Men's and Women's 10-meter uoen (live from Seattle, Wash.) CJ Insight.

NU Foundation officials have been talking with some, owners in the area about buying their property, university officials have confirmed. Wood said the foundation could buy land now and give it to the university after the regents take final action on the project. If the foundation acquires fhe land, condemnation procedures could be avoided, Foundation President D. B. Varner said Friday.

The parcels include the two blocks being considered for the $20 million Lied Center for Performing Arts, plus some additional land for parking lots for the center. According to NU legal counsel Dick Wood, the regents will be asked to set a public hearing June 16 on acquisition of land in all three blocks. Following that hearing, the regents could take formal action to acquire the property, he said.

The property in question is part of the university's long-range plan, which eventually calls for the acquisition of all four blocks between 10th and 14th streets, Wood said.

"We cant really understand other people unless we speak their language," he said. An increasing number of his students have gone on to major in foreign languages, he said.

Foreign language proficiency is in increasing demand in business and industry, he added. Hammelmann said he strives to give students as many opportunities as possible to use spoken German in the classroom. He added: "No matter whether a student masters all the intricacies of learning a foreign language or not, I want all of my students to leave the language classroom with a lifelong awareness, understanding and appreciation of other peoples and cultures, realizing that we are more alike than we are different." Bill Hammelmann, foreign language department chairman and head media specialist at East High School, is the 20th recipient of the Scottish Rite Distinguished Teacher Award. Hammelmann received the $1,000 award at a special assembly Friday at the school. He has taught at East since 1973 and was instrumental in organizing the Lincoln Public Schools German Exchange Program.

Since 1974, students and teachers from Lincoln have exchanged places each year with their counterparts in Kassel, West Germany. Hammelmann himself has participated in the exhange program six times. He is working with the state Department of Education to implement foreign language proficiency views in Nebraska colleges. The interview, testing students' speaking ability, would be given to all prospective foreign-language teachers graduating from Nebraska School board to elect Monday Bill Hammelmann ments, the agenda for the meeting at the Public Schools Administration Building, 720.
