Thursday, May 17, 1951' PAGE 2 THE DAILY NEBRASKAN 'A Memorable Day . . Wednesday was an election day which will long be remembered in the history of campus politics. A record breaking number of votes were cast on the question of a proposed Student Coun cil constitution. The majority of those voters, by a margin of 325, voted yes, and in so doing approved efforts of interim councils for more than two years. The majority was probably justified in ac cepting the constitution. The most important is sue to remember, however, is the great amount of interest shown by students in campus politics. Students have shown by their interest and ac tive campaigning that a healthful multi-party system will function well at the University. The Student Council itself campaigned vigor ously to appeal to the majority and pass the constitution. The campaign was primarily against the Faction or All University Party. The Council appealed to the majority to approve a statute It May Take Time . . . It will be a long time before members of the 1951-1952 AWS board forget the women's point system. This was evidenced Monday afternoon t the board's open meeting when studnts pre sented ideas for revision, modification and im provement of the existing activity point system. The tremendous task facing board members and the amount of study and time necessary to de vise a system which will merit approval of the majority of students was Well realized by all. Several proposals were offered to revise the system for evaluating points. In order to elim inate as many as possible discrepancies in point ing, one student suggested that each AWS board member take one organization study its pur pose, attend meetings and become familiar with all phases of its work. After this step has been taken, AWS could more fairly evaluate the points. Another suggestion was that AWS ask the top woman office holder in every activity to form a board to evaluate points. These women would be familiar with the amount of work and re sponsibility connected with each position in her organization and would be able to evaluate points correctly. Each woman on this board probably would be familiar with at least one other or ganization and be able to add her knowledge to the report given by other board members. Only drawback to this method, would be the possibility that the board would overpoint or underpoint offices to the advantage of the organization. This, however, would be a weakness of any group that helps point activities. Actually, this proposal is fashioned after the men's old point system when a similar board pointed men's activities. Basic difference is that enforcement policies and ac tions would remain in hands of AWS. Perhaps a combination of methods suggested to AWS could be used to evaluate points. Above all, when points are finally decided, students making the table must be familiar with each office they point and the work connected with it. Points must be based entirely on the amount Well, this is it . . . the last KNUS column of the semester. We hate to sign off, 'cuz it's been so much fun working on KNUS . . . covering the campus with music, news, fashions, and sports. But there's one consolation for this end-of-the-year leave-taking; and that's the fact that we'll be back to start the 1951-1952 fall semester with lots of vim and vigor (after a summer's recuper ation from the excitement of a campus radio 6tation.J Yep, the KNUS staff members who aren't leaving us because of graduation, or Uncle Sam, will be rushin' back to campus next Septem ber (old soldiers never die, ya' know) to report on summer activities . . . and to put into prac tice all of the know-how nuggets they've picked up during three months of actual practice. Ya' see, many radio-majors plan to work at com mercial broadcasting stations throughout June, July, and August ... in order to continue the practical, and realistic training, that KNUS has given them. But don't let the comments about "radio ma jors" throw yon off the beam . . . because KNUS Is looking for lots of active participants for the next semester . . . and you don't have to be enrolled In any radio courses at all. It just takes a lot of Interest, a little time, and a love of hard work, fun, and excitement. If you think now that you'd like to give KNUS a chance to use your writing, announcing, act ing, or promoting abilities, come down to the station studios in the basement of the Temple building. Let the staff members who are In the office know that you're interested, so they can give 'you a ring when operation begins again next year! Jim.

The recent action of the faculty senate in ap proving student representation on faculty com mittees is a step in the right direction. Although not holding voting membership on faculty committees, students will have an op portunity to learn the reasons for faculty ac tion. By the same token, the faculty will have a chance to obtain student viewpoints on ques tions affecting both groups. When there is no chance for mutual discus sion, students and faculty alike sometimes get the idea that the other side is being unreasonable. There is, at times, mutual misunderstanding. Students certainly are vitally concerned with semester examinations, social affairs, commence ment and student conduct. A great deal can be gained through mutual discussion of such prob lems. The plan will be tried for three years. Let us hope that it is successful. t.r. 'KNUS News' Campus Radio Station To Sign Off Until Next Fall By Nancy Porter Enuf of that . , . here's a little news about this year. Tomorrow afternoon at 4:30 p. m., "Great Short Stories" is relinquishing its usual quarter hour for a unique program! It's the University of Nebraska's Speech choir, presenting the popu lar "Manhattan Tower" . . . that saga of the world's greatest adventure center, the metro politan heart of our country , . . New York City. If you've never heard the pulsing rhythms of choral presentation, you won't want to miss the speech department's one-and-only Speech choir! And if you're already familiar with the spine tingling effect of human voices, blended in a rhythm more thrilling than a full-piece orches tra .. . well, then, we don't liave to tell you about it. Whatever you do, twist that radio dial to 710, at 4:30 p.m., tomorrow afternoon, for your University's Speech choir and "Manhattan Tower"! Now one final word ... a word of thanks and gratitude to Paul Bogen, director of radio, KNUS manager, and a grand person! Mr. Bogen put KNUS on its feet and achieved an all campus radio station, while at the same time, and no one knows how he found the time he taught classes and held open house in his office for the myriad students who constantly wandered in and out to consult him about their profes sional, and personal, problems. Never too busy to see anyone . . . never too busy to help all of us out . . . Mr. Bogen's departure in June is go ing to be hard for all of us to take. We hope you'll be back, Mr. Bogen . . . and until you are, lots of luck and happiness! This is the KNUS sign-off till September. 'See ya' then . . . YOUR UNIVERSITY STATION which virtually refuses any one party a dominant hold on the Student Council. The Faction, or any other group or individual who opposed the constitution still has a great responsibility. They should strive to reach by amendment some agreement as to the compro mise they want in student government. Time and machinery are available for op ponents and there are 1130 to work with next year's interim council to find a middle road on highly controversial Issues. Above all, we must preserve in the future interest that was shown in this election. To do this, students must be informed of negotiations toward realization of any proposal and the dif fering views concerning the negotiations. Students themselves have decided what kind of government they want to rule them, and they must continue to make their wishes known openly and continually. j.w. of work and responsibility of the job with no regard to prestige. In addition to methods of evaluating points, AWS is considering the idea of a flexible point system based on scholastic average. If started at a reasonable average 6.0 or 6.5 this would probably gain approval of most women students. Points would increase gradually as a student's grade average was higher. Whatever the action taken by AWS it should be detailed and extensive and open to student hearings and opinion. The organization is in capable hands and formation of a permanent system which is fair would certainly relieve AWS of criticism and also please students. A mere summer's work, however, is insufficient time to devise such a permanent time. So long as we must tolerate a women's activity point system, let it be fair, effective and flexible. AWS can not do it alone; campus leaders must help. j.k.
