(Continued from Page 1.) of both men and women" has been deleted from the sentence "Va cancies in the Student Council shall be filled by the Student Council." Like the original pro vision, the revision would have members chosen to fill vacancies be "members of the same sex, class and college as were the orig inal members," but it would de tach the phrase "and in the case oi men, irom the same political party," because the Constitution makes no provision for the year-to-year continuation of any poli cal party, but rather requires that parties be officially recog nized each year. The several revisions, drawn up by Council members Ned Raun, Harold Mozer and Sam Warren, form an answer to the request for revisions made by council members and general students alike, over the last few years.

" "'"7 m ne union, l Thoroburf, president dm Mwue4, We enjoyed the past week, despite a disgruntled prof or two who didnt appreciate such things as our not showing up in class. We heard the Chancellor speak at the first hearing- of the legislative committee on university appropriations, and were proud to know that not only could he present the university's case in a sincere and convincing manner, but could toss in a few humorous comments as well, to jostle the state house Big Boys who were present. Don Kline did a neat Job too, and wasn't bothered a bit by one of the legisla tors who for little reason became rather contentious. It did our heart good to see a student speak to the committee members on a man-toman basis and let them know that the student body is behind the Chancellor. And then there was the Cornhusker party caucus meet last week Crib talk would have us believe that the faction (if there is a fac tion) took a beating, but having heard how shrewd the "sub rosa' boys are we kind of imagine that they'll pull a few tricks out of the bag before spring elections roll around. And don't let the sororities' past actions fool you. Tuesday night's session proved that a few of the greek gals haven't the slightest anti-faction feelings at all. The University Theatre production of "Macbeth" closed, last night, and we want you to know, regardless of what we might have said in our Thursday's criticism, that it was a good show. One of our friends, who described the write-up tersely as "lousy!'', felt that we left the reader with the impression that the production was mediocre. It wasn't, for, from a production standpoint alone, it was an ad mirable undertaking, and Thursday night's audience saw the great improvements made over the opening night. Our heartiest apprecia tion goes to Hank Lee and Blanche Duckworth (the leads in the show) for thanking, instead of condemning, as for attempting to give an honest report, rather than tossing superlatives around with abandon as one of the city papers did. And as long as we're on the subject of theatre, we want to put in a word about "The Silver Cord," an experimental production which will be presented Thursday night. It's a fine show, a lot of hard work has been put in it, and people connected with the production would be happy to see more than the usual experimental theatre attendance when the curtain rises. Pee-Wee Novotny, an exceptional BWOC in that she has found time for theatre work as well as for many other campus activities, not the least of which are Mortar Board member ship and former president of Student Foundation, has the lead as the domineering mother, Mrs. Phelps, and if Pee-Wee's friends and acquaintances alone come to the play the experimental theatre will be assured of a full house. Thursday night we pulled a deal, flashed our press card, and got to see a bit of the Kosmet Klub rehearsal. All that we have to say right now (and well be saying more later on) is 'look out for Jerry Johnston!" We've heard of comedians who are funny enough Our Forty-Second Year!
