says rabbi
Mayerberg speaks on
'What are you worth?'
at Inter-Faith banquet
An individual should be worth
more than "98 cents on the hoof F.
O. B. Lincoln," according to Kan
sas City's most prominent rabbi.
"Every individual is in indis
pensable personality who gives of
himself to the great symphonies
of the life that we live," was the
substance of the message given
last night by Rabbi Samuel May
erberg, to more than 350 students
assembled in the Union for the
annual Inter-Faith banquet.
Mayerberg, who spoke on "What
Are You Worth," stressed the im
portance of the service that every
Individual can give to others and
insisted that the most important
service was rendered day by day
rather than after .an individual's
death.
t Ten foreign students were the
guests of the Inter-Faith Religious
Welfare Council, sponsors of the
banquet. Esther - Stuermer acted
as toastmistress for the affair.
Francis Keefer, co-chairman of the
Rocky Mountain region of the
World Student Christian Federa
tion, explained the work of her
organization. Rev. George Schus
ter gave the invocation and music
was provided by a flute trio com
posed of Marion White, Ruth Sur
ber and Richard Morse.

After hearing Barb evidence
that Liberal and Progressive fac
tions solicited votes at the polls in
Tuesday's election, the judiciary
committee of the Student Council
in a closed meeting yesterday rec
ommended to the council that a
re-election for class officers and
the prom committee be held.
Barb votes at ag campus were
thrown out Tuesday evening by
the judiciary committee after Lib
eral and Progressive factions had
charged the Barbs with infraction
of election rules.
The committee's recommenda
tion requested that the action
against ag campus votes be re
scinded . since candidates should
have been disqualified rather than
votes denied; that votes for all
candidates should have been dis
qualified rather than votes de
nied; that votes for all candidates
except the Prince Kosmet and the
Eligible Bachelors should be con
