for several years now we
have it
The Residence Associa
tion for Men (RAM), has
pulled the most worthless
stunt of the semester.
They have withdrawn
funds from support of the
SCBC much as the angry
vousg men who feel they
were slighted. Had there
been more active support
of the program before it
was started and during its
development possibly
there would have been
more happiness in RAM
and more peace in the in
dependent camps.
We congratulate the
SCBC for its stand in
fun interest of the Uni
versity and a strong Coun
cil. Dean Eldoa Park has

Do yoa aHovr your retired
parents to go on public relief,
which wiU subject them to a

do yci exhaust your own sav

three days. His impact on
the IFC wiU not be known
possibly for a few weeks,
but the immediate reac
tion was very favorable.
He is here to evaluate the
pledge training program
on the University and to
promote changes that all
of as agree are so neces
sary. Dean Park h.s pointed
out a need in itcx admin
istration for a Dean of
Fraternities. Dean Park
accomplished more for the
fraternity system in four
days than administration
has over the past ten
years in-so-far as direct
aid for a building pro
gram. Think, then, what
the benefits would be if
there was a full time staff
member in this area? As
MAW would say, Why
not?
It is needed because hospital
costs have more than tripled in
the past IS years jumping
from $9 a day to $32 a day.
and because the Tast major
ity of this country's 17 million
elderly cannot afford to pay
these mils. Half of them have
Jess than $100 a year, which
is scarcely enough to eorer their
food and boosing.
It is needed almost as much
for the benefit of children and
parents as it is for the grand
parents for whom it is directly
intended. Today there are some
75 miHton children in this coun
try who are tradtr 21. By 1970,
this fire re wiU rise to 95 mil
lion. Xone of these efc:Mren's
opportunities should be sacri
ficed because of crises, which
can easily be insured against.
Under the President's plan,
health care for the aged weald
be self-financed, with fret
choice of -doctor mud hospital
fftummteed fry law. For only 1
a month added to bis Soesal Se
curity deduction, the average
wage earner eoold insure his
own hospital or rrarsirig' home
care after he reaches the age of
65. He, in tern, would not hare
to he dependent on his children
for this care.
Wkit'; srrzrz with this plan?
As a doctor and a prhrate d Si
ren, I see nothing wrong: with
it. It does act affect the pa
tient's doctor or the treatment
he wiU reeesre. It is not "social
ized medicine."' It is simply old
age hospitalization insurance
paid for gradually daring' the
working: years. It eaa be
thonght of as family security
through Social Security.

The Student Council
election campaign this
year is seeing a marked
change from past years. I
believe it is a marked im
provement. This year's
candidates are not being
allowed to depebd cm
gimmicks or a flood of
posters to pot their name
across. They are being
made to depend on per
sonal contacts. Tbey are
being put on the spot to
speak well and have
something substantive to
say.
A campaign of this na
ture is harder oa the can
didates than aaother
might be because more is
demanded of them. Ex
perience with the Cooa
efl becomes almost a pre
requisite. It trill not be
etwegh this year to ac
cprire a shallow familiar
ity with the ovtstandiag
favsaes the Graril has
created or expeneaced.
Candidates trul be open
continuously for direct
questions, and wiU have
to give specific, detailed
answers. Tbey wia have
to show a knowledge cf
the mechanics of student
government, and be w ill
ing to commit them
selves with reference to
scope of action. Because
the Student Council As
sociates Program needs
organizational revision to
become effective, they
should be able to offer
suggestion in this line.

This year's campaign is
over last year's in that
the issues are objective,
and are genuinely relat
ed to the Stodent Coun
cil, not the social system
of the campus. As one di
rectly involved in last
year's campaign, I
would, caturaSy, defend
the actio taken to offer
to the voters an alterna
tive which had not exist
ed before. I would also
defend action taken to
pctlidie what many felt
were political abuses. On
the other band, I will be
the first to acknowledge
the correction cf the
things we fought against,
asd to state that there is
no longer a mid for the
type of campaign we
fought
In respect to this, we

year's IFC slate is more
experienced thaa any be
fore it, and I think it
working harder to offer
something of raise and
make Its views. I believe
it will be rewarded for its
work. Certainly it de
serves to be.
Hard working, imagina
tive students will win po
sitions of leadership on
this campus regardless of
their social affiliation or
lack thereof. Student
Councfl candidates should
be forced to campaign
strenuously because of
this.
The Student Council it
self, the Daily Nebraskan,
and the Student Union, as
well as the attitude dem
onstrated by student lead
ers involved in this elec
tion, are doing everything
they can to ensure such a
campaign. But for this
kind of campaign to be
successful, it also de
mands that the student
body participate. It must
follow the press releases
and listen to debates.
Students must not hesitate
to question the candidates
