Independent Plan for Representation
Outlined to Council; Other Cases Given
J. Bristol Turner, newly ap
pointed chairman of a proposed
Independents interim council,
Thursday outlined the plan for
representation of al' indepen
dent organizations on the interim
council, rie did this before a
faculty-student committee on the
proposed Student Council con
stitution. The constitutional committee
had invited representatives from
any organization or group or any
individual to ask for Student
Council representation.
Turner, along with representa
tives from four other campus or
ganizations, stated the advan
tages of having a representative
from his group. He informed the
committee that at least 11 inde
pendent campus groups have so
far shown a vital interest in an
intorim council.
Wants Future Representatives
"Although we are not trying to
prove that we deserve represen
tation inmmediately," he said,
"vrp do want a chance for rep
resentation in the future. It is
important," he added, "that the
re iresentation does not go xo one
nHpnpnHent woud but to a coun
cil including all independent
gr )ups."
Delores Lovegrove, speaking
for the YWCA, asked for a Stu
dent Council representative un
der the new constitution.
"The YW would like to be of
service to the Student Council,"
she said, "and the Council could
help the YW to better understand
the needs of the campus and the
community."
Ruth Schinn, secretary of the
YWCA .and Rev. Rex Knowles,
Presbyterian and Congregational
student pastor, also speaking for
the YWCA, agreed witn miss
Lovegrove when she said that the
YWCA "is not adequately repre
sented by the Religious Welfare
council representative to the Stu
dent Council."
Clarifies Position
All three, speakers .however,
emphasized the fact that they did
not wish a YWCA representative
to replace a delegate from the
Eeligious Welfare council.
"We are not asking for a sub
stitution," said Miss Schinn, "we
are asking for an additional rep-
Spring Elections Bring Annual
Coed Problem I'm Overpointed
Spring is coming, and many
activity girls around campus
aren't too happy about it. Even
with the knowledge that spring
turns young men's fancies toward
thoughts of love doesn't cheer
these desolate maidens.
Yes, spring is here and with it
has come the annual problem of
many campus queens: "What'll I
do, I'm overpointed!"
This is the plight of many coeds
on campus who have gone way
over the 21 point quota for Uni
versity activities.
Take the typical case of Activ
ity Alice, a campus cutie who
lives for nothing - but activity
points and the limelifht that goes
with it. Alice is the president of
her sorority, an AUFUL board
member, a member of Hussels
(the pep organization, and secre
tary of the Animal Husbandry
honorary, Delta Omicron Gamma
(Dog to you).
Must Make Choice
Now that spring elections are
almost here, Alice realizes for the
first time (is she joking) that she
is overpointed. Alice has a choice
to make; either she must give up
one of her many activities, or she
must forfeit the chance of run
ning as a candidate in one of the
Troyouts for One Act Plays
Planned for Today, Monday
Tryouts for five one act plays,
directed by Speech 102 students
studying play direction, will be
held Friday, March 16, and Tues
day March 20 in rooms 203 and
204, Temple building.
The cast for 'One Room Apart
ment," a modern farce by Mel
Dinelll, includes two men and two
women. This is the story of two
men who would rather take the
chance of winning slogan con
tests than work for a living. Their
situation is complicated by a
mother-in-law who insists the
husband should support the wife
instead of the opposite, and by
a landlady who constantly wants
her rent money.
April 6, 7
John Bjorklun will direct the
play and Nancy Dark is produc
tion manager. The play will be
presented April 6 and 7. Tryouts
are in room 203, Temple building.
The one act tragedy-within-a-comedy,
'Aria da Capo," provides
parts for three men and two
women. The play, written by
Edna St. Vincent Millay, will be
directed by Christine Phillips.
D K. Smith is technical director.
"The Conflict," by Percival
Wilde, will be presented at 7:30
p.m., April 6 and 7, and at 8:30
p.m., April 17 and 19. The cast
calls for three women and one
man. Jayne Wade will direct the
play and Joan Fickling will act
as production manager. Tryouts
are in room 204, Temple building.
"Sit Down to Supper"
"Sit Down to Supper," a one
act comedy, will be directed by
Shirley McClain. Marilyn Morgan
will act as production manager.
The play calls for one woman
and three men, and tryouts will

Rex Knowles, who is an ad
viser of the Religious Welfare
council, favored a YWCA repre
sentative but also brought up the
point that the Religious Welfare
council is the only group that
represents the Jews and Catho
lics as well as Protestants.
Marilyn Campfield and Mary
Hubka appeared before the com
mittea to present the views of
Coed Counselors. They explained
The Independent Interim
Council will hold a meeting:,

5 p. m. in room 316 of the

the program and organization of
the group and asked that since
Coed Counselors represents the
orientation phase of college life
it be given a Student Council
representative.
"The Coed Counselor organi
zation," said Miss Campfield,
"represents women from all four
classes and maintains a balance
of affiliated and unaffiliated co
eds." COA Testimony
Appearing on behalf of the
Candidates Officers' association
was Darwin McAfee, who gave
reasons for the retention of a
COA Student Council represen
tative. He asked for one repre
sentative on the basis that the
military department includes a
cross-section of the campus, aids
the financial status of the Uni'
versity and provides advertising
for the school through the an
nual Military Ball and other
functions.
Some opposition was raised by
members of the faculty-student
committee to the arguments of
McAfee, but he contended that
military representation was de
sirable and advantageous.
Nolan Jones of the Pioneer
spring elections. Poor Alice is in
a prediciment.
She ponders over the situation.
"Now what activity," she thinks,
"can I give up."
As far as we know, she is still
pondering over her perplexing
problem; she just can's reach a
solution.
"You know," states Alice, "ac
tivities are just like little puppies;
once you get attached to them
you iust don't want to give them
up. I'm really very fond of all
the activities I m m, and to be
awfully truthful, I don't want to
give anyone of them up.
Future Reference
Yes, Activity Alice is facing the
same problem that many other
NU coeds have been shoving into
a dark corner with the label,
"for future reference." The only
time these coeds would like to
refer to all their activity points
is after they have gotten their
diplomas and have been "long
gone" from the University for
some time.
The old saying that "he who
procrastinates is lost" just doesn't
hold true for the coeds at Nebras
ka. Their version of the saying
is 'she who procrastinates, is
found out."

"Overtones," by Alice Gersten
berg, concerns two women after
the same man. The play takes on
a new twist when each women
shows her real personality in the
form of another person. Tryouts
will be held in room 204, Temple
building.
Dallas Williams and Dean Gra

tions. Tryouts are open to any
interested student who is regular
