Our perennial plague of inade
quate student government can be
laid to three causes: Disinterest
of students, an incoherently un
sound governing set-up. and un
inspired student officers. To
gether these create the Univer
sity's frustrating "political situa
tion." Any one cause is enough to re
duce attempts at student govern
ment to a parlor game. Yet, the
three are inseparable.
Ten thousand students cannot
display interest in their council if
it has not real authority. The
faculty dare release no major
powers to a council without rep
resentative support and vigorous
student backing. Without major
decisions to make, the most able
student officer cannot evblve pol
icies worthy of his talents. De
sire for work and responsibility
will find other primary outlets
than a powerless council post.
THE COUNCIL operates on an
activities fund dole, like the ward
of a relief agency. A budget esti
mate is made each fall but the
council runs in the red until the
year's end. Currently no council
member has the vaguest idea
how much money could be re
quested successfully.
Few budget estimates are turned
down. But the necessity of mak
ing a final budget estimate in the
fall effectively prevents the start
of any new project requiring
money.
Clerical help, student or other
wise, under council supervision is
unavailable. Administrative pro
cesses are by necessity slow and

Church News
Baptist
Supper will be served at 5:30
and the devotional will be held at
6:30. The guest speaker will be
Rev. Kendal S. North, pastor of
the First Baptist church at Fair
bury, Nebraska. He is a former
Army chaplain and is a trustee of
the Nebraska Baptist Student
Council.
The Baptist Co-Op Grocery
meeting will be held at the Bap
tist Student House, 315 No. 15th
st. at 6:00 p. m. January 10th. A
nursery will be maintained during
the business meeting.

First Christian church will have
Ben Kuroki as their speaker Sun
day, January 11 at 4:45. He will
discuss racial problems. Students
from Doane College will be guests
of the group.
Presbyterian
Friday, January 9th, the rec
ords which were given to the
Presby House for Christmas will
be played. The "concert" Jwill in-
incomplete. The council, if worth
having at all, must operate effici
ently. At least the officers should
be paid and performance of spe
cific duties required.
Membership should demand
more than weekly attendance at
a Union tea party. The last
meeting was under, 15 minutes in
length. None at all took place the
week of the "Big Six racial con
ference." THE FACTION- is symbolic of
campus attitude. Its operation is
neither good nor bad. Its pres
ence or absence, however, has
dominated the void of campus
politics in recent years. Parties
organized since the 'early '40s
have had one of two purposes:
(1) to front for the faction, or
(2) to break the faction.
Concern of "reform" parties
with keeping the faction "out"
prevented their political develop
ment. Such an attitude gives an
office no importance beyond its
name. All elective posts are fast
approaching the status of the
class presidencies, one point hon
oraries for ivy gardeners.
Until an idea with two sides
catches student, interest, the num
ber of winning votes cast at an
election will, as at the last one,
strangely equal the number of
eligible fraternity men on the
campus.
THE PERSIANS are (1) an un
authorized group of five mem
bers, and (2) getting the royal
run-around.
There are other and bigger
groups on campus with" a political
bent ,and the laddies know it!
