Constitutions ...

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.

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
