The meeting is planned especial
ly for students of social studies
and debate, and is sponsored by
the Department of Speech in co
operation with the Nebraska High
School Activities Association and
the State Department of Educa
tion.
Two University debate team
members, Nancy Copeland and
Barbara Bacon, will debate a
University of Oklahoma team on
the question, "Should direct U. 5.
economic aid to individual coun
tries be limited to technical assist
ance and disaster relief?"
The institute will also feature
discussions by Theodore Roesler,
assistant professor of economics
at the University of Nebraska,
and Joan Kruege. a doctoral can
didate in political science. Dr.
Roger Nebergall of the University
of Oklahoma will conduct a dem
onstration discussion.
The high school students will
participate in two sessions of in
formal round-table discussion in
which they consider the question
of United States foreign aid, the
topic of debate this year for Ne
braska high schools.
Dr. Leroy T. Laase, chairman
of the department of speech and

Cobs and also a Council member,
said, "Every organization has the
right to elect their officers the way
they want to. Last year we had, a
vote on changing this and it was
defeated by a two thirds vote."
"This manner of electing officers
keeps politics out it," Spilker said.
"Furthermore the old officers
know the men better than the new
members. The officers know them
as workers for two years."
Burt Weichenthal, Ag College
representative and a member of
Corn Cobs, said, "Pretty respon
sible people have to head up this
group because of the money it han
dles. Who should know better than
the officers who is trustworthy?"
Barbara Lantz, Tassals repre
sentative on the Council, pointed
out that Tassals is a very simi
lar organization and their entire
students object to the present sys
tem of 8-day exams. The students
do not have enuogh time to review
for exams, he brought out in his
report.
The reason to which he attrib
uted the present situation was,
"The faculty's viewpoint to give
them more time to grade papers.
Since it is the students that the
University exists for, we think this
is unfair."
The students seemed to favor
the two-week schedule, he said
The reasons he gave for this were:
1) the two-week exam period is
profitable for the good student who
uses this time wisely for review;
2) The two-week exam period usu
ally spreads exams out so more
attention can be given to each
course; 3) A recuperation period
which is necessary in a con
centrated 8-day schedule is not
warranted in the 2-week exam
schedule; 4) Polls of students show
tHat the 2-week exam schedule is
favored over any other proposed
exam schedule.
"The University exists for the stu
dents and therefore the students'
wishes and desires should be
major factor in- determining ad
ministrative policy," Smith said.

Professor Schultz said, "It is as

be surprised to find that the two

This cave was found in Slaught

to the new cave was concealed by

The Council also rejected the

The Constitution of Mu Epsilon
