LINCOLN, NEBRASKA
Filings for Junior and Sen
ior class officer positions will
be extended two and a halt
days, starting today at 8
a.m. until Saturday at noon,
the Student Council decided Wed
nesday. After a long and sometimes
heated debate, the Council passed
by a 15 to 6 vote a motion that
the filings be re-opened.
According to the Council con
stitution, however. the motion
must get official approval from
the Judiciary Committee and the
faculty Committee on Student Af
fairs if any nominations made in
these two days are to be validated.
It was pointed out at the meet
ing that only three officer posi
tions had received the required
two student applications that are
needed for each position to be
voted on in the May 4 Council
elections. These positions are:
secretary of the Senior class, pres
ident and vice-president of the
Junior class.
Sneaking on behalf 6f the Jun
ior-Senior class officers were Don
Piener. Senior class president and
Sue Ann Brownlee, Junior class
council member.
They both presented the Council
with arguments to show wny tney
believed it in the best interests
of the University to re-open the
nominations for the class posi
tions. Bob Hasebroock introduced the
motion that the elections be al
lowed to be re-opened and after
receiving considerable debate, his
motion was carried.
Student Council faculty repre
sentative Mary L. Mielenz, assoc
ate Drofessor of secondary educa
tion, informed the Council that
it was in the power of any stu
dent or faculty member to ques
tion' the validity of a candidates
name that was accepted in the last
extension of class officer filings.
She said that the same conditions
would apply to any name sub
mitted under any lurtner exten
sion, and advised that the Council
check its action with the judiciary
committee.
Miss Mielenz was referring to
the previous action taken by the
Council when they extended the
filines for a period of four days
longer than had originally been
planned. This extension was not
passed Dy enner tne juaiciary
committee or the lacuity commit
tee on student affairs.
The Council referred Hase
broock's motion to the judiciary
committee, headed by Eldon Park,
who will discuss its validity. It
will then De taicen Deiore me iau-
ultv committee on student affairs
... .. i t 1 - f o.i a
who will also discuss its constitu
tionality.
Dean Lmscott, chairman oi xne
elections committee told the Coun
cil that a new procedure of iden
tification would be used in the
forth-coming May 4 elections. He
said that student identification
cards would replace the formerly
used identification slips that had
to be cleared through the regis
trars office before a student could
vote.
Robert Knoll, assistant profes
sor of English was introduced to
the Council for the first time as
their new faculty representative.
He is replacing Dr. Henry Holtz
claw, associate professor of chem
istry whose term as faculty repre
sentative for the council nas ex
pired. Carr Trumbull reported xnat
any action to install a traffic light
at the corner of 16th and R Streets

considered at the present time
however.

Wayne White announced that
there would be no Council meet
ing next week because of the an
nual Council picnic at Pioneer
Park.
at Room 209 in the Administra
tion Building.
Applicants for junior offices
must have completed at least 27
hours and not more than 52 hours
at the end of last semester. Sen
ior applicants must have at least
53 hours and not more than 88
hours.
In order for a filing to be valid.
applicants must have signatures of
25 students. The applications ask
for the candidate's name, address,
sex, position sought, grade aver
age, social affiliation, professional
affiliation, activities and a pledge
of purpose.
The office of Assistant Dean of
Student Affairs, Frank Hallgren,
must approve all applications.
Because of some doubt concern
ing the constitutionality oi re
opening filings, all filings made
will only be valid if the Coun
cil Judiciary Committee and the
faculty committee says so.
The constitution says that fil
ings may only be opened between
certain dates.
Some Council members, how
ever, feel that this does not mean
that they may not be re-opened.
Filings for Student Council of
fices will not be re-opened be
cause enough students filed for
those posts during the previous
filing dates.
The original filing dates were
extended once and closed. Still,
the class officer posts did not
have enough candidates for a valid
election according to the Council
constitution. The Constitution re
quires that there be at least two
candidates for each office.
If the election were held, with
out re-opening the filings, there
would be voting only for senior
class secretary (Merle Maupin
and Bert Sample filed for that
office), junior class president
(Marvin Stromer and Richard
Schultz filed for this office) and
junior class vice president (Rich
ard Faes, Bill Devries and Jame
Hargleroad filed for this office.)
