sented to the members by Fred
Chael, Rod Lindwall, and Bob
Paiker.
Since then, the elections com
mittee, under the chairmanship
of Louise McDill, has studied the
problem and recommended action
to the Council. All aspects of the
problem were discussed by the
body, and representation plans of
other schools were studied in an
attempt to find the plan best
suited for the University.
The plan of representation fi
nally asreed upon by the Council
is a modified college representa
tion plan. It provides for 30
members, six of whom would be
holdovers, nominated and elected
from the council now in
existence. y
Seventeen members will be
nominated and elected by the
various colleges of the Univer
sity. Arts and Sciences will have
four representatives; Teachers
college will have three; Engi
neering, two; Business Adminis
tration, two; Agriculture, two;
and all other colleges, four.
Foreign Student
One representative will be a
foreign student and two will be
elected at large from the sopho
more class.
The other four members will
be composed of the chairmen of
four campus co-ordinating com
mittees, which would be set up
under the new council. These
committees would provide for
the co-ordination of University
activities.
According to Bob Raun, the
committees would serve in a
position similar to a presiden
tial cabinet. Student Council rep
resentatives would serve as go
betweens for the Council and the
various organization
The four committe 1 are: Stu
dent spirit, religious affairs, ac
tivities and orientation, and cam
pus improvement.
In all Student Council elections
for holdover members, and for
campus-wide members, a pre
ferential ballot will be used. If
four representatives are to be
elected from the field of candi
dates, voters will vote for four
students, stating the order of
choice. Thus voters will express
their first, second, third, and
fourth choices on the ballot
"This method of election will
assure minorities of representa
tion on the Council," stated
Howard.
Three Polling Places
Three polling places will be
provided for under the new plan.
Two will be located on the City
campus at the Union and at
Love library. The other polling
spot will be on the Ag campus.
The Council tentatively ap
proved the formation of a party
system on the University campus.
These parties would be' open,
recognized, and would have writ
ten constitutions.
Restrictions on campaign ex
penditures and publicity will be
provided for. Campaign material
will be limited to hand-made
material. No party could spend
more than $50 in an election and
individual candidates would be
limited to $15.
Rallies and other political
plans must be scheduled in ad
vance with the Student Council
and approved by the election
committee. Campaigning will be
restricted to the University cam
pus only, and will not be carried
on near the polls. Publicity in
The Daily Nebraskan must be
equal to all parties or candidates.
The elections conimittee has
recommended that each college
set up a student board to take
charge of the elections in their
respective colleges.

on an interim basis. The regular
body was disbanded last year on
the basis of the election proce
dure. The methods of representa
tion and election were the things
criticized in the former Council.
The former representation plan
was condemned because minority
groups were not given represent
ation, and because their was con
siderable overlapping.
According to Howard, the new
plan irons out the former diffi
culties. States Howard: "To my
mind, the new set-up is def
initely in accord with democratic
principles and assures that the
Student Council will be better
able to perform its constitutional
obligations."
During the discussion of the
amendments, the Council mem
bers worked' on such problems a.
political parties for women stu
dents, and duplications of elec
tion functions.

Humor Magazine
Suspended at CU
The Dodo, student humor
magazine at the University of
Colorf do has supended publica
tion oil orders from the publi
cation board. Type already set
up for the April issue of the
magazine tffill not be used.
A large drop in advertising,
the rising costs of publication,
and the fall of sales were given
as reasons for the suspension by
the chairman of the board.
Investigations by the board
Into the financial responsibilities
of the magazine revealed a defi
cit of several thousand dollars.
The death of the Dodo put an
end to all-school magazines. The
Window, a literary publication,
was suspended a month before
the Dodo.
A committee appointed by the
ASUC commissioner to investi
gate student interests in maga
'.ines, will control much of the
future policy toward such publi
cations. Recommendations of the
committee will determine the
nature of the substitute of the
Window and Dodo.
