The election of John Soennichsen to the Board of Man
agers of the Student Union was declared invalid by mem
bers of the judiciary committee of the Student Council
when they met Thursday afternoon with Miss Mary
Mielenz, adviser.
The special meeting was called by Ned Raun, head of
the judiciary committee, to render a decision on the vali
dity of Soennichsen's nomination at Wednesday's meeting.
Prior to the committee meeting, Soennichsen had sub
mitted his resignation fo Harold Mozer, president of the
governing body. This move was unknown to the judiciary
officials. Soennichsen declared in submitting his resigna
tion, that, "he felt his nomination was unfair to other
candidates and, therefore, wished to withdraw." Donna
Alfrey, candidate for the office who received the fourth
highest number of votes, will become the third member
of the board.
Wenke's Argument.
At Wednesday's meeting Wenke moved that nomina
tions for the Student Union Board be opened to Student
Council members. In doing this, his argument was that
the by-laws contained no specific clause stating the man
ner in which they should be amended; therefore, they
could be amended by a majority vote of the Council mem

Council Passes
Motion, Favors
Proposed Mag,
Student Council, at a regular
meeting Wednesday, passed an
unanimous resolution to suport a
magazine of the same type as the
proposed Cornshucks.
The council plans to send letters
to all members of the publication
board expressing their full support
to a magazine which will provide
an outlet for creative writing in
the form of humorous or serious
poems, short stories or essays from
university students.
Proposed by Joan Fankhauser
and Jerry Johnson the purpose of
the Cornshucks is to provide a
stimulus for creative writing on
the campus which at the present
time is not provided for the stu
dent body. The plan is for a
publication which would represent
all campus groups from the ag and
city campuses. The magazine
would also feature pictorial re
views. Reservists Can
Apply for Duty
ROTC headquarters announced
Wednesday that a "limited num
ber" of air reserve officers wll
be placed on active duty for the
1947 fiscal year.
Officers called to duty will be
required to certify that they are
not members of the national
guard, not drawing pension or
disability allowance, compensa

a currently effective appointment
in the air reserve.

bers, which would supercede the standing election pro
cedure of various committee members as prescribed in
the Council's by-laws. This motion was passed, and
Wenke nominated Soennichsen.
Correct Motion.
Raun pointed out that "although Wenke was constitu
tionally correct in his motion, the judiciary committee de
clared his nomination invalid, since Soennlschen's name
was not among those submitted by the Student Union
Board, and since he had not shown interest m the organi
zation as did other candidates who filed for positions."
"in effect," Raun added, "the nomination was declared
invalid because of the principle involved and was unfair
to candidates who had filed."
Constitution By-Laws.
Section 4 of the constitution by-laws were used as a
basis for rendering the "unfair decision." This section
which defines the Council's procedure in making ap
pointments to Boards when asked to do so, and which
those candidates filing had followed reads: .
"The Student Council has the power of appointing dele
gates to certain boards. The procedure of making such
appointment shall be as follows:
a. The right to apply shah be granted to all eligible
students. The time and place of filing shall be adequately
publicized by the official student newspaper.
b. A committee shall be created to review applicants
and to make recommendations on their individual quali-

fications to the Student Council.
C The Student Council, acting as a body, shall have
final jurisdiction over such appointments.
Basis for Motion.
Wenke used the constitution by-laws as a basis for his
motion. There is no provision in the Student Council con
stitution defining the amending of the by-laws, according
to Raun. Robert Rules of Order are followed by the Coun
cil when no provisions are made. Raun emphasized that
the by-laws may be amended at any meeting without
previous notice by a majority vote of Council members.
Measures are to be taken, according to Mozer, for the
judiciary committee to insure that adequate filing ar
rangements are made i"n all cases where members are
to be appointed. The judiciary committee also plans to
instigate measures so that each delegate has the same
interpretation of the constitution.
Board Criticized.
"The Student Union Board," Raun reported, "was
criticized to some extent for not adequately publicizing
and stimulating student filings for the Board. However,
in future years, interest in the Board will be stimulated
by work in committees which will provide a basis for
selection."
Members of Raun's judiciary committee are Jean
Compton, Sam Warren and Ruth Peters.
Jeanne Kerrigan and Stanford Lerncr were appointed
to the Board of Managers Wednesday.

The last edition of the Daily

mester will be published Sun
day, May 25. All notices and
announcements for the rest of
the semester must be turned in

Saturday if they arc to be

according to next semester's ed

Campus tennis courts are now
ready for play, Louis E. Means,
director of student physical wel
fare, announced today.
"Students are urged to make
as much use of our courts as pos
sible," Means said, "for the re
maining days of the semester, as
a possible relaxation between ex
aminations, and during the com
ing summer school sessions."
Sixteen Courts.
There are eight clay courts just
east of the Coliseum, four courts
at the rear of Carrie Belle Ray
mond hall, and four courts at
the Ag college Activities build
ing. Students are requested to
wear tennis shoes on all courts.
All eight courts will be torn
up at the end of the summer
session this July to p-'ake way
for the construction of concrete,
all-weather tennis courts. The
concrete courts will be ready by
the opening day of school next
September.
Hard-Surfacing.
With the hard-surfacing of
eight tennis courts there will be
available at least a minimum of
courts that will be playable
throughout most of the school
year, Means said. He indicated
that a long-time project to develop
still more hard-surfaced courts
was under consideration.
"Our object is to build enough
courts to permit the student body
unrestricted opportunity to play
this fine recreational activity.
More courts will also permit
scheduling of many sections of
physical education classes for men
and women so that more students
can be taught the game."
Sacrificed.
Means pointed out that tennis
courts on campus have given way
to progress, in the form of new
classroom buildings and improve
ments. One by one the courts
were torn up in the construction
of new buildings, until this spring
evacuation for Burnett Hall re
moved the last of five campus
courts.
