The scientific acare resulted in an entire review of America's ed ucational system. On the campus, 11 University professors took tbe opportunity to voice their objec tions to the accreditation system far teachers now in use in the state. l ' vl 'I Nebraskans. (See story Page J).

The Chancellor appointed a study comiiiiUee to look luio the proposed changes. The result 60 far mud discos'sion, but no changes. Student Tribunal The second rated story cbe re vision of tbe Student Tribunal Charter arose after objections were raised about the method in which the Charter had been ap proved by tbe strident body last spring. It was argued that the students bad voted to decide for or against the principles of a Charter, not tne Charter itself . y Tbe Charter was ala attacked as being filled wits unnecessary restrictions uca as a stipulation . . . SC By EMMIE LIMPO Staff Writer In a heated meeting Wednes day the Student Council voted to reject the constitution of Corn Cobs and to accept the recom mendation of the Activities Com mittee not to grant Student Coun cil representation to Kosrr.et Hub. Cora Cobs By a vote of 21 to 8 the Council rejected the Corn Ccb constitu tion because of "an undemocratic method of election of officers." The Corn Cob offices are presently selected by the outgo ing officers, with no provision for nomination from the floor or vot ing by the members. The Student Council rejected this constitution on Oct. 11 on the same grounds, according to John Kinnier, chairman of the Judici - arv Committee. The Corn Cobs voted 10 to 7 against the Council recommendation, according to Bill Spilker, senior hold over member. Corn Cobs can now appeal to the Faculty Sub-Committee on Stu dent Organizations in order to have their approval or disapproval of the present constitution. "From the voting in favor of the present constitution, it can be , seen that the Corn Cobs have ex-j j pressed their desire to continue I selection of officers in this! explained Silker, '"so whai difference should it make to the Student Council?"

Tbe result was a revisjon of tbe Charter by a Student Council com mittee beaded by Dave Keene. University Enrollment Story number three a drop in enrollment at the University broke this fall after tbe University waited nnta October to release enrollment figures. They bad pre dicted tbe spring before that en rollment at tbe University wotQd be tip. The real fact: enrollment dropped by 2&1 students from a year ago, down from ,2S to 8.164. Aa increase is tuition costs and tightening of entrance retjuire ments were listed as big factors responsible far the enrollment de cline.

Tbe final drafting plans caDed for a modernistic two-story addition to tbe Union at aa estimated cost of $15s,WK). Bids were let this month for fee Union. They totaled $150 ,K. The Union parking lot was closed and ground breaking bas begun. The boped for result: loss of a parking area now bat a bigger and better Union with expansion construction complete by Jure 19S0. Among the new items in the Union will be audi features as a 1(-lane bowling alley, biHard room, drive-in-Bervice, barber abop, lats- Meeting Scene Dave Keene, senior holdover member, pointed out that it is the purpose of the Judiciary Com mittee to pass approval on organi sations' constitutions and in this case, the committee could not pos sibly accept the Corn Cobs consti tution because of their method of choosing officers. The report of the Activities Com mittee recommended that Kosmet Klub not be given representation of Student Council. Connie Hurst, chairman, stated that at the pres ent time, 14 students are from the colleges, and 14 represent stu dent organizations. By adding an other seat on Council, the equal relationship would be upset. She further stated that no established criteria has been set up in the Council charter to allow another ; representative, Moreover, there are i many other organizations which are not granted a seat, such as Builders and NUCWA. Members of Kosmet Klub were then granted permission to ex press their reasons for wanting a seat on Council. Morgan Holmes, president, emphasized the fact that through Kosmet Klub's fall and spring shows 2,400 and 3.400 people respectively are affected Thus he felt that the Klub should have a voice on the Council in things that affect them. Since the Council recommended j to refuse Kosmet Klub repre- I ser.tion. Ken Freed Bus Ad repre- J I M 1 1 nWMtUI ! ' day Fe;ruary 2s.

And, of course, there was tbe prankster, who called a local radio station daring a heavy soswfaH and said, "This is Chancellor Eardin. There will be no school tomorrow at tbe University.' The announcer broadcast this report. But it wasxt tbe Chancellor talking and a few znintttet later a red-faced radio announcer bad " make apologies for as unfoaaded announcement.
