dictates of one faction or one
party!" Then he characterized the
Council as "a buncn or curiy-iow
down heels."
Jim Minnlck, Acacia, jumped
to his feet, followed by John
Mason, ATO. "We don't have to
take this!" Minnick shouted.
"I move we adjourn!" inter
rupted Mason. "We can't ad
journ; we haven't elected the
co-chairmen," yelled Merrill
Englund, Kappa Sigma. Anna
Marie Schutloffel, Sigma Kappa,
marched out and slammed the
door with a resounding bang.
"What's the matter? Can't you
take it?" sneered Woerner. Then
he offered his resignation, which
Englund moved the Council im
mediately accept. His motion was
followed by a dozen seconds
Marian Kidd, Council presided
called for a vote. It was lost and
a committee was appointed to con
sider the resignation.
Before Woerner's dramatic
speech the Council' had elected
Dwight Burney, Pi Kappa
Alpha; Bus Knight, Sigma Nu;
Ed Segrist, Chi Phi; Brandon
Backlund, Phi Delta Theta; Mar
vin Kruse, Farmhouse, as the
five men on the Prom commit
tee. Forrest Behm, Delta Upsi

Delta Gamma, and Betty Roach,

selected by the Council.
Anti-climatical was the selec

Bradstreet and Dwight Burney.
Fireworks begin early
Storm clouds began to gather
early in the meeting, which had
almost its first perfect attend
ance. Woerner proposed the reso
lution voted down two weeks ago
giving to each faction at least one
representative , on the Council. In
support of the motion, Ellsworth
Steele declared that such a pro
posal would make the Prom an
all-campus activity, and would
take the committee out of the
realm of "political plums," and
declared that the Council now
played the role of 'fruit vendor."
In conclusion he declared that the
plan was not merely "minority
party psychology," but a step in
the right direction for all fac
tiona.
Opposing the resolution again
were Merrill Englund and Bob
Flory. Englund protested that
since only one Barb man had filed
(George Gostas). it left the Coun
cil no choice. The proposal was
voted down by secret ballot, 22
to 9.
John Mason reported on the
point board ruling Tuesday that
no man could be declared eligible
for election, if election would
make him over-pointed. But be-

dent preparation for the industrial
field. The professors learned how
business is doine things, what the
immediate future has in store, and
what changes are needed to bring
school work up to date.
Prof. Lueb went on to point out
that many companies, as General
Electric, give their new engineers
a training course which will serve
to bring their application of funda
mentals up to date. rrjie course in

and sales.
The University of Nebraska does
not intend to change its courses
as a result of the meeting, but

mind when teaching its courses.
cause this rule was ex post facto
it had no bearing on the present
situation, the Council ruled.
Bob Flory moved Brandon Back
lund and Marvin Kruse, both
Council members, be unanimously
elected, but the motion was not
carried.
Miss Helen Hosp, dean of
women, attending the meeting, ex
pressed a strong desire for par
ticipation in discussion by more
members of the Council. She de
clared that as campus leaders the
members should do more than sit
back and listen to the speeches of
a few. Miss Hosp spoke while the
votes were being counted.
