Two-Fold Purpose.
"The purpose of the Council will
be dual," said Howard. "The first
will be to carry on the committee
work of the old council and the
second, and most important, to
evolve a new plan for council
election and representation."
The Council will currently op
erate under the constitution of the
last year's group, according to
Mary Mielenz, faculty advisor.
Only the articles concerning elec
tion and representation will be
void, she added.
Miss Mielenz called the council
"one of the most important." "You
should feel a deep obligation to
the student body," she told the
delegates.
Committee to Study Constitutions
The council decided to continue
the work of administrating park
ing areas and supervising the spirit
committee. A motion to study the
constitution of the old council and
last spring's constitutional assem
bly was carried.
The council's one committee to
survey the problem of dances will
be headed by Gene Berg. Other
members are Bob Raun, Ben Wall,
Bruce Kennedy and Bob Parker.
The committee will report when
the council reconvenes Oct. 12.
