The Council voided the first

points. (1) The election official
did not place the ballots in the
box; (2) Idttle attempt was made
on the part of election officials
to see that voting was uninflu
enced at the polls; (3) Certain
groups were disenfranchised,
meaning that all students were
not allowed to vote for seniors-at-large
on the Student Council;
(4) No provision was made for
party affiliation; (5) No oppor
tunity was given for proportional
representation.
In Tuesday's election, the fol
lowing rules will be enforced: A
new ballot for party affiliation
has been added with a space pro
vided to mark "Student Party" or
"Progressive." The voter will
mark his affiliation to provide
for the minority representation.
For every 125 votes (or major
fraction thereof) cast in favor of
the minority party, that party is
entitled to one member on the
Student Council. These members
will be chosen from defeated
candidates having the highest
number of votes.
All university students will cast
votes for senior-at-large repre
sentatives on the Council. Juniors
vote for senior Publication Board

Climbing Ivy . .
(Continued from Page 1).
Grandfather graduated from
the University of Nebraska.
The other group looks at the
tradition a bit more objective
ly. They think of the value
to the student body as a whole.
They plant the ivy next to U
hall. The Ivy grows up to be
gib and strong:. It wraps itself
around the tottering structure.
It strengthens the molderlng
mass of bricks and mortar. . U
hall does not fall down. Dean
Scnstscn is net crashed. With
a good growing year they may
be able to untie the binder
twine that now holds the uni
versity buildings together.
