A petition endorsing the proposal
was submitted to the Council, but
a technicality kept the measure
from being considered by the stu
dent body at the spring election.

demned as a partisan measure, the
supporters of the bill, believing
that it will promote fairer student
government, submit these ten

Noted Educators Attend
AAUC Meeting in Lincoln
... 85 Delegates Expected
Approximately 85 delegates and
guests are expected to attend the
43rd annual conference of the As
sociation of American Universities
on the campus Thursday, Friday
and Saturday of this week.
Among the distinguished guests
who will be present and speak on
the program are the following:
General Lewis B. Hershey, di
rector of the selective service sys-
points for consideration by the
student body.
1. The amendment assures rep
resentation on the Student Coun
cil in direct proportion to the vot
ing strength of the parties or
groups (Article 4, Section 5).
Ratio 5 to 1.
In the last six years 166 Greeks
and 30 Barbs have held office on
the Student Council. At present
1,550 affiliated students are rep
resented on the Student Council
by 28 members, the 3,500 unaffili
ated by only seven members. The
ratio is 5 to 1. In the last election
the barb party polled 42 percent of
the votes and received only 20 per
cent of the Student Council mem
bership. The facts and figures
speak for themselves.
2. All members of the Student
Council will be elected without ar
tificial restrictions as to class, col
lege and sex. Students have never
been divided along these lines.
3. Students of the college of
agriculture are' guaranteed fairer
representation under this plan
(Article 4, Section 1).
4. The initiative or repeal of
rules for student elections upon
petition by the majority of the
students will lessen manipulation
by the majority party on the
Council (Article 9, Section 2).-
To Committee!.
5. The idea of proportional rep
resentation will be carried thru to
all committees of the Student
Council and committees and
boards appointed by it (Article 5,
Section 2),
6. Control by faction bosses will
be lessened and the chances of in
dividuals and minority groups to
gain membership will be increased
(Article 4, Section 5).
7. All committees, including the
judiciary committee, will be di
rectly responsible to the Student
Council (Article 5, Section 2).
8. Manipulation by the party in
power will be lessened by the
elimination of hold-over members.
However, experience on the Coun
cil will be assured by the alterna
tion of the terms of members
(Article 4, Section 2).
9. Efficiency and successful
planning in the carrying out of
projects will be assured in a uni
fied council of 20 members (Arti
cle 4, Section 1).
10. Vacancies will be filled au
tomatically from the election rec
ords rather than arbitrarily by the
party in power (Article VI).

faction bosses, the politicians and
a few politically strong houses,
