What Happened?
Yesterday was a shocking day for
Student Council. Those among its mem
bership who had not heard about Bob Ker
rey's profits on the student discount card
were shocked. Those who heard, for the
first time, an account that was more than
rumor were shocked. And Kerry, himself,
after the introduction of a motion placing
his hold on the position of second vice
president of Council in jeopardy, said
"This is a complete shock."
In trying to analyze exactly what hap
pened at the meeting, we alternate be
tween humor at the irrelevancy of some
of the . arguments brought before the
Council and sympathy at Kerrey's being
subjected to a gruelling round of ques
tioning. In the end, Council decided to
send Kerrey to the judiciary committee to
explain again his profit. This is probabl
ly what would have happened had the
motion been defeated, or even had no
motion been introduced.
As we see it, there is no moral issue
to be decided. With the information as it
was presented yesterday, we must assume
that Kerrey is the victim of the long-bewailed
"breakdown of communications."
Two questions remain 1j be solved
The first, Kerrey's future on Student
Council, we leave to the judiciary com
mittee. The second, the principles in
volved, should be aired before all stu
dents. Kerrey told the Council he acted un
der the assumption that the discount
cards were only "Student Council-endorsed,"
rather than a working part of
Council. He said last year's Council presi
dent. Denny Christie, did not know of his
profit, but that Christie did not believe
that Council could handle the money col
lected nor make a profit. Although Christ
ie also believed that no Council member
should make a profit because of his posi
tion, Kerrey held that the cards were not
a part of Council and that he was there
fore entitled to the money.
The Daily Nebraskan holds that, in
the absence of any explicit separation,
the discount cards are a part of Student
Council. We further maintain that no stu
dent should be subjected to either a profit
or a loss unless these possibilities are
well announced and every student is giv
en a chance to apply for the position
just as in the case of the Daily Nebras
karfs business manager.
Yes, we were all shocked, and be
wildered. There is a lesson to be learned
from yesterday's Council meeting. If Ker
rey's actions are wrong, steps should be
taken to prevent the slightest possibility
of their recurrance. If they are right,
they should be explained to remove any
doubt.
We assume Council and the judiciary
committee will take steps soon to rectify
this situation.
CARTOONIST BILL MAULDIX whose
works have appeared in the Daily Ne
braskan this year, is currently in Viet
Nam doing war cartoons with the U.S.
military men stationed there. Until his
first works from Viet Nam are re
ceived, we will present some of his car
toons from World War II, which estab
lished his renown as one of the greatest
war-cartoonists ever. We hope our read
ers will enjoy the first of these cartoons
today.

By Bob Bosking
Prevalence of certain
symptoms has caused me to
conclude that a plague-like
disease has entered this
campus, unbeknownst to
many of the afflicted. Its
symptoms are such that I
call the scourge "jaundiced
zebraitis."
The first symptom of its
contraction is late-night and
early-morning perusal of a
medium sized, yellow-a n d
black booklet. This symp
tomatic persual occurs most
often before University ex
aminations, while the person
is in deep concentration, ap
parently oblivious to the
symptom itself.
As the disease develops,
the perusal becomes more
frequent, and the afflicted
shows an apparent addiction
to the spore, although still
(apparently) unmindful of
its effect on his system.
The effect at tins stage
is two-fold: while the afflic
ted feeds on the spore it
self, the spore steadily de
vours the frontal lobe, the
center of reason and cre
ativity in the human brain.
Steady deterioration fol
lows. The patient's mind re
ceives less and less exer
cise, and the frontal lobe
soon stagnates. The patient
rapidly depends entirely up
on the jaundiced zebraitis
spore, and manifests this de
pendency by a strange out
ward appearance of secur
ity and complacency.
Deterioration may be said
to be complete when the pa
tient secretes whole pas
sages of any given spore
type (examples:1 Macbethe
osis, KingLeareosis, and oth
ers of the genus Shakes
peareoitis; the other strains
are predominantly British
variants, with a few excep
tions including the rare but
fatal Danteosis spore).
Prognosis for afflicted
persons is an either-or situ
ation. The patient may recover
from his condition by vig
orous exercise of the frontal
lobe, using readily-available
apparatus such as text
books, assigned reading for
courses and writing re
search papers from source
material only. Even without
such apparatus, exercise is
possible by using ears and
eyes in classes.
The alternative is more
pessimistic, and envisions
the eventual deterioration of
intellect and individuality.
Thus the disease begins
with a failure to use the
frontal lobe as it was intend
ed and as we purport to do
at this institution.
Failure to read, to listen
and think in class, to dis
sect and reassemble ideas,
to create from analysis of
source materials, all are
failure to use the mind. Fail
ure means confinement to
y e 1 1 o w-and black striped
wheelchairs, crutches and
resuscitators of the mind.
