The Student Council this week announced their decision to send three official representatives and one observer to represent the university at the Chicago Student Conference to be held during the holidays. The purpose of the conference will be the creation of a student organization in the United States which will work together with similar groups in other nations, having as their goal an International Union of Students. The purpose of the international group will be to "defend the rights and interests of students, to promote improvement in their wel fare and standards of education, and to prepare them for their tasks as democratic citizens. Major issues to be discussed at the Chicago conference, all applicable to our own campus and student body, include : the stimulation of active, democratic student-controlled stu dent governments on the campuses of colleges and univer sities; elimination of racial discrimination on campuses; ex tension of equal educational opportunities for all. The advocation of lower tuition fees and increase of scholarships and government aid to qualified students; en couragement of such student-operated institutions as host els, dormitories and dining halls; stimulation of student dra matic productions, art exhibitions, concerts and sports events; facilitation of student exchange and travel. The student poll in today's edition will demonstrate to what extent we, as students, are interested in the purposes and goals proposed by this organization. It will further dem onstrate our opinions and ideals in regard to future inter national co-operation and understanding. By Ellie Swanson. It seems as though news at this date is mainly centered on what parties who will be attend ing with who every night of a certain approaching vacation. Some people are a little be wildered as to their plans as is shown by Tom Noble's recent statement . . . "I'd sure like to spend New Year's Eve with Jean Metzger in Fremont, but I don't know how to get her to ask me." Maybe this might help, Tom. Peggy Cowles, lucky girl, leaves tonight for sunny California to spend a much longed for vaca tion dating a certain ensign in Long Beach. Jackie Lou Merritt will leave for Mexico Friday . . . probably for a rest. Holiday Parties. There will, naturally, be at least one good party a night in Omaha. One planned for the 23rd will be given by Johnny Rush ton, Dick Klopp, Bill Campbell and Walt Samuelson. The place will be the Blackstone ballroom and Walt Samuelson will be with Mary Stuht and Johnny Rushton with Patsy McManus. It promises to be a big party and the boys have only one thing to say . . . fcI hope we at least break even." One new pinning of last week end was that of Paul Burden and Jan Wilson. They passed the candy Monday night as did Glen dene Leonard and Gordon Mc Kenzie at Monday night's Ker nel meeting. The celebration was for a bright new diamond. From pinnings to engagements to mar riage, we mustn't forget to men tion the wedding of Herb Benson to Jeanne Ryan on Dec. 27. Three Lonely Hearts. The Lonely Hearts' club, Sid Wells, Sid Salzman and Chick Neal, can be quoted as saying that they are to give up dating college women in view of certain circumstances concerning Don Pa pez. It has also been heard that they can do all right on their own as of Thursday night. Guess Sid Salzman can stop flipping a coin for Shirlee Wallace or Pat Hickey. (If this is a little vague, consult one of the aforementioned.) Mona Freeman, young Para mount player seen in "Dear Ruth" has a unique collection of me mentoes from her film roles. She sketches her fellow players, has them sign the pictures. .
