Friday, May 11 1951 PAGE 2 THE DAILY NEBRASKAN n, i 1V 4 t t .a . 1 ' . 1 i - - i 'l . 1 Wednesday's Nxt, Wednesday,- the itudents of the University will have chance to accept or reject a new con stitution for the Student Council. This vote will climax two years of work by the members of the interim council in an effort to write a constitution which would satisfy all stu dents in representation. Complaints have been heard from students who Would like to go back to the old form of repre sentation. Under present circumstances, such a return is virtually Impossible. The constitution would provide for the election of new members by vote of the various college, five holdover members from the previous year's council, and the election of 12 members by or ganizations. This organizational representation is designed to represent various fields in which stu dents are interested: religious, spirit, fraternities, sororities, independent groups, University work ers and. others. It represents a compromise with the faculty, who seemed to feel that in a strict . college-by-college election, the Greeks would completely dominate the Council. Some have criticized this organizational article because they feel that too much emphasis is placed on women's organizations. Six female groups are guaranteed seats on the Council, while only three "men only groups" are included. Some men on campus feel that this would give too much weight to csmpus women. To Our Advantage . . An admirable step will be taken Monday by Associated Women Students board members. Their open meeting fa rairing grievances on the women's activity point system provides opportu nity for each student male and female to ex press views on the system and offer suggestions for revision or modification. The board has seen fit to extend welcome to University students to attend and has taken time for such a hearing. Since the invitation has been extended, it is certainly to be hoped that more stu dents appear than have in the past for similar hearings, namely one this year on the Student Council constitution and last year on a discussion concerning cheating. Unless students have changed drastically in a year's time which is doubtful but commendable if true attendance will be poor. Dissatisfaction and gripes about the point sys tem have been arising for some time. Every several years AWS has had to undergo a period of revising the pointing method. Now is a chance for you, as students, to give your ideas about how the board that you elected should govern you. The chance seldom occurs; this is a good time to take advantage of it. It is a.uite feasible that out of these hearings and from suggestions that are offered may come a less antagonizing and more fair and flexible point sys tem. Assuredly, AWS will do all in their power to devise a fair system, but suggestions must be made. The board cannot read thoughts of 7,000 students. ojmenshould be vitally concerned with the outcome since the result immediately effects them. As for male students, this point system' concerns you, primarily because campus offices are dele Alum Returns to Make Things 6 A Bit Worser" at Alma Mater AJoa FaHwr a eampas tradltloa mwi bark Ui eampas Bfr.

Editorial Comment Vote However, while not guaranteed as much strength on the council as are the women, men always far outvote women in the actual college elections. Men dominated the council when , free elections were held. The constitution is certainly not perfect, but It is an improvement over the present set-up. Only people who are engaged in some activity are ac tually represented on the present Student Council It is probably as good a constitution as could be achieved under the circumstances. The faculty is anxious to see that independent students are represented on the Council. During the previous years, Greeks have dominated the Council In 1941, however, the Council was dom inated by the independents. Now, the Independ ents have little political organization. If the elections were to be completely fair, it would seem that all Student Council members should be elected by the students. Two political parties, not necessarily Greek and Barb, could probably create a healthier situation upon the campus. However, for the present, this article seems to assure that most students, at least, will be repre sented on the Council. Until the political situation on this campus changes, this article will insure at least a small representation for the Independ ents. Further representation on the Council will be up to the Independents. t.r. gated to coeds in organizations of which you are a part. The person you get to fill the office may be directly or indirectly a result of the point sys tem. We have an excellent chance to help form a fair, flexible and effective point system. We ought not to bungle. We won't go so far as to call for a general "up-in-arms" for coeds to attend this meeting. We merely suggest you maneuver your self to Parlor A, Student Union, Monday at 5 p.m. j.k. Campus Politics The Student Council and all backers of the pro posed Student Council constitution are asking and giving their political opponents a chance to come out in the open with any of their arguments against, suggestions for and reasons why they are opposed to the new body of laws. At 7:30 next Tuesday evening, May 15, a pub lic forum will be held in Room 316 of the Union. Backers of the proposed constitution will be on hand to answer any questions about the constitu tion and to defend all of their positions in regard to Council representation, method of elections, etc. Any group or person with private or public objections to the constitution are being asked to come above board and air these next Tuesday night. Here is an opportunity for an adult, intelligent and reasonable debate on a subject of much cam pus political controversy. The constltutkm backers "ere wflhng to defend their ideas. Will their opponents dare to do the same? Farter's Folly By AJon really important it is in view of the war and can be summed up with that well known expression (Quote) "Boys will be boys" (Unquote).

It's the mud. Mud, to be precise (like a dic tionary), is wet dirt. It is also bad; it is muddy; it is a big bother. Back in the good old days when the seniors were running around in rompers and the jun iors didn't care, mud was a pret ty good thing. You could run out in it barefooted and watch it ooze up between your toes. Or, better yet, you could make cakes out of it to give to your little sister. When that got tire some, you could throw it at the neighbors or at the clean wash on the line. Ruins Parking Lots But that sort of thing gets old after about five years of it.

Alan Ladd and Phyllis Calvert co-star. Alan Ladd appears in the role what are you going to do with the stuff now. It ruins the pant ing lots (both kinds of parking), hinders the picnic plans and makes little pig pens out the pic turesque paths the University uses instead of sidewalks. The fact has been established and quite well proved during the 84 years that Nebraska has been in the union that nothing can be done to prevent mud. There are some people that dont even want to. After all the bitter expres sions concerning the subject have been uttered, it's easy to see that even the mud has its good points. Maybe it's hard to see it, but think these points over. What would everyone do with out the old expression, "his name is mud"? What else is so ex pressive and yet so . repeatable in mixed crowds? Of course it's a little outdated now, but it still serves the purpose and gets the meaning across. Serves as a Good Excuse Mud also serves as a good ex cuse for anything from being late to a class to not showing at all. After all, a story like this sounds pretty legitimate to some one who has known all the sor rows of a muddy road. "Now sweetheart, don't get excited. Sure, sure, I'm sorry I couldn't show Saturday night, i but you know how the roads are ; . . . I started out right at six, but about two miles from your place, ithe car got stuck. I decided to j hike it, but the mud kept balling iup on my shoes until I had to I take them off too. It wouldn't jhave been bad after that but j then I came ta a Jaig puddle. I I stepped in it and started to go j down. I tell you, I was swim immg. it was terrible. I was ; skidding, rocking, staggering. iWhat? No, no, I hadn't been I drinking. You believe me, don't ;you? Well, bye now, see you around." That's how it goes when you , have the good old mud to blame And with a pair of chains, hip 1 boots and other such equipment, ! even you can beat the slimy stuff they call wet dirt.
