Queen election, the Council should take it. Proposed amendments to the Tassels constitution were offered by Miss Tucker, which would give that group definite control of the election. Their control over the election is presently in their by laws, and not in their constitu tion. The Tassels would have an open meeting asking for suggestions, Breslow said, and would then present proposed amendments to their constitution giving them the election. "The Tassels should listen with an open mind," Breslow added, "which apparently they don't have any more." Miss Deepe said that the ques tion is not if the Council will dele gate authority on the matter, but if they have authority. The amendments to their consti tution that Tassels will submit to the Council are: 1. The Homecoming Queen can didates shall all be junior active members of Tassels. 2. These girls shall be selected on the basis on interest and en thusiasm, service and leadership to the organization and the cam pus. 3. All junior actives' names shall be placed in nomination for Home coming Queen candidates. The five girls receiving the highest number of Tassel votes will auto matically become the five final ists. 4. The Queen shall then be chosen by a vote of the student body. "This is our present method, and we will be glad to insert it into our constitution if the Council so desires," Tassels added. Reasons given by Tassels as to why they should keep control of the Queen election were: 1. It has become a traditional part of the group's activities. 2. Tassels are representative of the entire campus. All organized women's houses, as well as unaf filiated girls, have representatives in Tassels. ..- ........... 3. Outstanding leaders appear among the candidates offered by Tassels. 4. It seems only fitting that the Queen should be chosen from the group responsible to large extent for work and the final success of many of the Homecoming activi ties. 5. This is one campus election Co-ed Regulations: 'Point System' Limits Extra-Curricular Activity With the time for campus elec tions approaching, U n i v e r s i ty women are asked to keep the ac tivity point system in mind when applying for offices pointed by the Associated Women Students, the AWS Board announced. This system, which limits, a girl's activity points to five, was established to aid girls by guiding their choice of extra-curricular ac tivities. Last year the mainten ance and enforcement of the ac tivity point system for women was out of the hands of AWS and un der consideration of the Student Council. This year, however, it is func tion of the AWS Board. The point system was revised last Spring and the new list of pointed offices can be found in the 1956-57 AWS Rules and Regulations booklet. If a girl acquires more than the maximum five points she may either drop a pointed activity or appeal her case to the Activity Point Appeal Board. In considering an appeal case, the Board is interested in the girl's overall average, the type of pointed activity she wishes ' to carry, whether or not she holds Pot Luck: Sunday Dinner Set By Union t ' Another Pot Luck Supper has been scheduled for Sunday evening by the Ag Union S'.udent-Faculty Committee and Ag College fa culty members. Chairmen for the evening event will be Mr. and Mrs. M. A. Alex ander, i More than one .hundred guests were present at the "Pot Luck" held in October according to co chairman Burt Weichenthal.

Students should sign up in the Union Ac tivities office by November 9 to pick uj? their free tckets. where the candidates have really earned through their own effort the right to be chosen. 6. It is due to an unusual situa tion this year that the candidates were selected from such a small number of junior actives name ly ten. 7. Tassels is more than a pep organization, and has assumed many other responsibilities of serv ice to tht University. 8. Thf votes cast in the election of the Queen are comparable in number to any other campus elec tion. In further Council business, Dick Andrews, Pub Board member an nounced that the resignation of Lu'cigrace Switzer, Nebraskan News Editor had been selected, and that the vacant position would not be filled this semester. Bev Deepe reported that tht Chancellor's Roundtable would be postponed until Nov. 28. Dr. Crawford:' Guest Lecturer To Speoit Dr. Bryce L.'
