Just the Beginning
It's all over now but the shouting and the work. The
tension of election day has subsided into a feeling of relief
and inquiry as to what the new Council members will do.
After the members read the Student Council constitu
tion they can act accordingly, if the students also realize
what the Council members are empowered by their consti
tution to do.
The Council constitution states that it "shall act as the
supreme student governing body in the regulation and co
ordination of all phases of student self-government and ex
tracurricular activities and serve as an agency through
which faculty relationships with student activities may be
maintained."
Another section listing part of the powers of the
Council states it is: "To serve as a suitable medium for
communication between the student body and university
authorities."
In the recent survey conducted by the Daily Nebraskan,
a majority of the students who had any opinion at all on
the Council function expressed the sentiment that it should
have just the powers mentioned above. Each student em
phasized the need for a liaison agent between students and
faculty.
Foreseeing this, the drafters of this constitution in
1931 provided that "Mass meetings of the students shall be
called by the president of the Student Council at the discre
tion of the council or upon written request of 50 students
of the university,
"Students may present to the council in writing or in

as change on Crib milk) a quantity of pebbles, mosses and goo for
the fishbowl.
Strange, the way through the years certain spots on and off
campus retain their appeal to the students ... as witness the shady
lawn under the trees of the old quadrangle, or the shadowy recesses
of the pillars after sundown. Then there are the ephemeral attrac-

Four Problems
Of Legislature
The next session of the state
legislature will probably face four
major problems. Dr. R. V. Shu
mate, director of research for the
legislative council, and university
political science professor, told
members of the Nebraska con
vention of the American Associa
tion of University Women in
Hastings.
He said the issues, none
which he was speaking for
against are:
(1) An attempt to revise the
Nebraska tax system which may
take the form of an income or
sales tax, proposals which have

know what to do. S. J.

which possess laws which conform
to the spirit and intent of the fed

The coming session of the leg
islature, like many of its prede
cessors, will be faced with a pres
sing dilemma," Dr. Shumate
sajd. "Some groups will want
lower taxes. Other groups will
ask more appropriations for more
state services. Some will demand
more regulations, others will ask
for less. The best the legislature
can do is try to effect a fair com
promise, somewhere in the mid
