The Arts and Science and En gineering Colleges have used the plan with fair success, the Okla homa delegation reported. The students have, by this method, been able to add several courses to their curriculum and drop a few others. Other schools at the conference said they were looking into the idea although no definite plans have been made. The conference also discussed the organization and duties of the Student Councils at each school. Miss Jones reported the following differences between the Universi ty Student Council and those of other Big Eight Universities. Nebraska Unique Nebraska was the only univer sity in which organizations were allowed representation on the Cojncil. In one school, certain souri University allows each party 1 dent Council if it were to grant money to Corn Cobs or Builders for their annual budget, he ex plained. Each organization must appear before the council committee and present their request for a budget. The Council decides which group receives how much money. Parking Problems A third delegate to the conven tion, Gary Frenzel, remarked that there seemed to be only two so lutions to campus narking prob lems. If the schools have room they build off-campus parking lots and if they don't they forbid fresh men to park on campus. Herb Freidman, who represent ed the University on the confer ence constitution committee ex plained that Kansas State College will no longer have permanent charge of the annual conference. Instead, each conference will de cide where the next meeting will be held. However, Kansas State will have charge of next year's session. The office of Chairman of the Big Eight Student Government Association was made separate from that of chairman of the con ference. Helen Gourlay, president of the Student Council and another con ference delegate, explained that any Council member wishing in formation from another Student Council in the Big Eight should write the Association President in stead of corresponding directly with the schools. Frances Gourlay was the sixth delegate to the convention. dent of the Student Council. Student Tribunals, now being es tablished at the University, are common at other Big Eight Schools. At Oklahoma a student may appeal a decision of the Dean to the Tribunal, whose action can be over-ruled only by the presi dent of the university of the Board of Regents. The Oklahoma Tribu nal, with other members of the student body assisting, chose the Dean of Students several j'ears ago from a list submitted by the President of the University. . Dwaine Rogge, another Council representative to the Convention, commented that many other Coun cils have budgets of several thou sand dollars. These Councils allot money to the various student or ganizations on campus. This would compare with the University Stu- sented to the University Faculty Committee on Student Affairs for its approval. With the support of the Uni versity Faculty Committee, the Charter will be referred to the Faculty Senate for their approval at large. The proposed charter of the Stu dent Tribunal was passed by a near 2 to 1 majority in the Stu dent Affairs which will have the final say on action taken and pun ishments levied Keene said. The Tribunal will only recommend a decision to that body and will also only act on matters that the Di vision of Student Affairs refers to it.

Dr. Margaret Servine of the De partment of Speech and Dramatic Arts doesn't promise such a startling outcome for the Univer sity Theatre's production of Jean Giraudaux's popular play of the 1954 season. But she does say that the production of the play will be interesting. Adapted from the French by Maurice Valency, who does much of the translation work for Girau daux, Ondine is the retelling of an old French folk tale. Dr. Servine said that the plot is based to story of a certain water sprite (Ondine) who falls in love with a human but is disillusioned by -worldly life and goes hack to her lake. 'She leaves her lover dead with a fareweil kiss on his lips' Dr. Servine stated. The play is basically a story of the conflict between worldliness and innocence. "Ondine does he come worldly and she does be come disillusioned," the director related. The play is at the same time fantastic and humorous. It con tains pathos and a good philos ophy. But even without the phil osophy the play is unusual and interesting, Dr. Servine added. "The fact that it is a fantasy gives it an appeal," she said. Tryouts for the play, scheduled for production the first week in March, will be held in the Howell Theater Wednesday and Thursday. Hours for the tryouts are from 3-5 and 7-9 p.m. on Wednesday and from 3-5 and 7-8 on Thursday. The shortened Thursday evening try outs have been necessitated by two experimental theater plays scheduled that evening, Dr. Ser vine explained. There are parts in Ondine for 17 males and 10 females and ev eryone is urged to try out whether he has had any previous training or experience in theater, the di rector noted. Crew calls for the play will be made at the same time as the tryouts. Dr. Charles Lown of the Speech Department will be the technical director of the show. "We will run into a number of technical difficulties," Dr. Servine noted. "There are three acts in the play and many sound and lighting difficulties which should prove challenging to the crews." She reported that tentative plans for the scenery would create a contrast between the rather heavy medieval style of settings and the rather airy character of the sprite. Rehearsals for Ondine will be gin February 3 and will not con flict with examinations. R.
