On Campus
Construction work resumed
this reek at the Sheldon An
Gallery and on the Gamma
Phi Beta sorority house.
According to Ed Reglin. job
su-jerintendeot for Olson Ob
s traction Co.. the strike has
rot been settled yet, but the
men came back to work be
cause they thought it a i
"just" to do 80.
Some IS met at the Sheldon
,ite are bow pouring a a d
forming walls, pouring floors
and placing . e b a r s la the
walls, Reglin said.
All the craftsmen came
back except the iron work
ers, but work in that area is
going oa with other help, fee
said.
Reglin said the causes f the
strike were a demand for an
increase la hourly wages and
because the men want the lo
cal kept la Omaha mad the
contractors want it moved to
Lincoln.

the Gamma Phi house, fore
man Bud Baete of American

plus himself were now on the
job.

The present constitution
limits the place of meeting to
Kansas City, Mo.
The meeting has been tenta
tively scheduled with Dr.
Otto Hoiberg, director of the
Hall of Youth, for Dec. 25Jan.

The purpose of the Associ
ation is to coordinate the ac
tions of all the Big 8 student
councils, as weU as putting the
student councils on a common
basis for the exchange of
ideas and minutes.
Jim Samples, Student
Council vice-president, as one
of the five delegates who at
tended last year's meeting
had this to say: "We dis
cussed such issues as the Na
tional Student Association's
executive council, women's
hours, student publications
and other matters dealing
with campus life."
"Because the president had
been severely injured in an
auto accident before the con
ference, however, the dele
gates were forced to organize
the conference on arrival,
making the effectiveness of
the program and exchange of
Ideas less than it could have
been," continued Samples.
Al Plummer, chairman of
the Student Council nomina
tions committee, was elected
vice-president of the Associa
tion at the meeting.

IFC Considers Co-op Plan
By Bob Nye
We can save each house
here from $500 to $1,000 a
year."
With this statement, John
Nolon, executive secretary for
the Interfraternity Council
(IFC) introduced a report pro
posing the adoption of The
Fraternity Management As
sociation. Xolon, who compiled and
edited the report, stated in
his opening remarks that "at
present the fraternal organiza
tions at Nebraska are not tak
ing advantage of a method
of financial operation proven
successful at many other col
leges." The main purpose of the
Fraternity Management As
sociation (FMA) as stated in
the Articles of Incorporation
is: ... to provide facilities
and personnel through which
3,600 Bandsmen on Field
Mass Color, Music, Sound
Is '61 Band Day Pageant
An inspiring mass of color, motion and
sound is created by the annual University
pageant that is Band Day.
This Saturday, University Band Day
will bring 68 high school bands from
throughout the state to Lincoln to partici
pate in this 25th annual tradition. More
than 3,600 high school bandsmen plus the
University band will be coordinated into
a significant theme by Prof. Donald Lentz,
director of the University of Nebraska
bands.
Prof. Lentz took part in the original
Band Day Festival in 1331. He will be
assisted by Jack Snider, Wesley Heist,
and the University band fraternity, Gam
ma Lambda.
The idea for Band Day was formed in
1934 by John Selleck, former chancellor
of the University, and at that time busi
ness manager of the athletic department
IS Bands in '21
Selleck invited 15 community bands to
participate and 11 attended. During World
War II the number of bands taking part
had grown to 30 and since that time the
number has grown to 68.
The rapid growth of the event made.it
necessary to invite each band only once
every three years.
The colorful assembly will spell out
America as the combined bands play
"America the Beautiful" and as the baton

the member societies can pur
chase food, supplies, fuel,
furniture, equipment and serv
ices in order to secure the
benefits accuring from coop
erative action."
Purchasing Agent
The FMA will function as
a centralized purchasing as
sociation which would act as
the bargaining agent for its
members, arranging for the
purchase of commissary and
household needs at prices and
discounts not possible to in
dividual members, i
The FMA would function as
a non-profit organization and
as such would be incorporated
under the laws of the State
of Nebraska; it would be
owned and operated by the
men's and women's fratern
ities at the' University.
The IFC's role In the FMA
would be that of taking the

separate organization by pro
viding funds and research fa
cilities necessary for construc
tion of the basic organization.
The structure of the FMA
as given in a sample constitu
tion contained in the report
stated that membership is
available to any fraternity,
sorority, or cooperative club
officially recognized by the
Board of Trustees of the
FMA.
FMA Policy
The policy of the FMA will
be determined at an annual
meeting of representatives
from every member organiza
tion. A Board of Trustees is
then elected by the convention
and will serve in carrying out
the corporate powers, prop
erty and affairs of the asso
ciation subject to the consti
tution and by-laws of the
FMA.
twirlent spell out "1776." The bands will
then spell eat "U.S.A." as they play the
"Star Spangled Banner" and the "Battle
Hymn of the Republic."
Band programs throughout the state are
furthered by Band Day as many bands
choose this time to unveil various innova
tions and all practice particularly bard for
the event
Early Hour Trips
An indication of the honor it is to partici
pate in Band Day is the fact that many
bands from western Nebraska cities start
in the early morning hours in order to
arrive in Lincoln in time for the down
town parade at 9:15 a.m. The band route
this year will be from Memorial Stadium
south on 10th Street to O; east to 14th;
north to R; west to 12th; and then north
to the Stadium.
The University Band and Hoskerettes
w ill direct the high school band members
in rehearsing. Snack lunches are provided
for the bandsmen by the Downtown Lin
coln Association and will be served by
University Builders. The University tele
vision station will televise the parade live
for the third consecutive year and will re
lay it to KETV in Omaha.
The Band Day is a day of tradition and
festivities which most large universities
now follow but it originated at this University.

A manager, employed by
the Board of Trustees, will
carry out the business of the
Association and shall direct
the activities of the Associ
ations employes. The expenses
incurred by the management
will be paid for by a service
charge determined by the As
sociation. The excess of serv
ice charges collected over ex
the members on an equitable
penses will be distributed to
basis.
In operation, the FMA
Board of Trustees will ask
for bids on various items such
as canned goods, meat, and
milk from all distributors wi
ing to compete. The company
or companies selected on the
basis of price, reputation, and
quality of goods and service
will then be contracted to
furnish the members with
stipulated goods.
Other Programs
Over 15 universities and col
leges have a similar organi
zation, some of which have
been operating since the
1930's. The Massachusetts In
stitute of Technology, Penn
sylvania State, and the uni
versities of Minnesota, Cali
fornia, Michigan, Wisconsin,
and Oregon are a few of the
universities which have oper
ated a similar organization
with success.
' The University of Massa
chusetts, whose association
has operated for only a year,
was cited as an example.
Massachusetts' net saving
during the first semester of
operation totaled $6,84. This
represented an average year
ly saving of nearly $1,000 for
each member ttaternny.
A few of the items pur
chased under Massachusetts'
association showed the fol
lows savings: milk, 25;
brec. 12&: laundry, 25;
kitchen gas, 32; equipment,
20.
Other universities reported
similar savings with Ohio
State saving 18 oa canned
goods, 36 on -laundry, and
55 on rng and upholstery
cleaning.
In the report. Nolon stated
that with the Universities he
contacted the net savings per
house is between $300 and $v
500 per year.
Benefit to Suppliers
.As stated in the report, the
program provides further ad
vantages by benefiting the
suppliers. The continuing
quantity of orders received

through such a program
gives them a stable business.
This stability, is another rea
son for the large discounts
which the program oonv
mands.
The report continued: Th
name 'Fraternity Manage
ment. Association connote
much more than a purchas
ing association. For exam
ple, several services that
could be provided througli
the FMA are:
1. A uniform accocntiB
system designed to accurate
ly classify and distribute in
come and expense. (A) Year
ly budget forecast, prorated
on a monthly basis. (B) A
form to compare actual
expense with b u d g e t e 4
amounts, on a monthly and
cumulative basis.
2. Assistance in al above
budgeting and accounting
procedures. Completion of, et
assistance with, Social Secur
ity or other tax reports.
3. A file of housemother

sistance in hiring personnel.
4. Conferences b e t w e e a
stewards and other interested
parties for exchange of ideas,
menus, etc. Giving assistance
in all phases of fraternity
management and training

posal of national officers and
alumni
7. Making available recipes
and menus for all occasions.
Mr. E. C. Dewey, Presl
dent of the Interfraternity
Board of Control stated that
"This program certainly has
great possibilities, "however
it will take more study by all
concerned."
Next week the IFC wi!

Dean Adam C. Brecken-

tions of the Student Council
for a Student-Faculty Evalu
ation Program at the next
meeting of the organization of
department chairmen.
The Council's suggestion to
establish a joint student-faculty
board to draft a student-
faculty evaluation program
was given to Dean Brecken-

sideration. The student rating
of the ability and qualifica

been adopted in many col
