No Tribunal Meeting; Absence of Quorum The scheduled Thursday meeting of the Student Tri bunal was adjourned at the absence of a sufficient quor um to conduct business. The meeting was called to elect the new Chairman of the Tribunal and to explain the duties and responsibilities of the Tribunal to the new judges. The newly appointed judges include Richard Schmoker, Harold DeHart, Bill Holland, Pat Manrose, Steve Tempero, Tom Chandler, and Dick Ros enburg. Judge Pat Manrose, in commenting on the recent Student Council move to in vest the Tribunal with final power in all cases excluding explusion or suspension from the University, commented, "In the final analysis, Student Tribunal as it now stands, is nearly powerless. The mem bers of the Tribunal are quali fied and intelligent enough to pass respectable decisions," he continued. "This is apparent by re viewing the record. Only eighteen of the more than 150 cases tried last year were reversed by the Dean of Stu dent Affairs," Manrose pointed out. In commenting on the fu ture of the Tribunal, Manrose said, "Better communication between the Division of Stu dent Affairs is a definite ne cessity. Also, the students of the University should be in formed on the functions and duties of the Tribunal," he concluded. Jules Feiffer, a nationally syndicated cartoonist, will be featured in the Daily Ne braskan beginning Sept. 27. Feiffer is 30 years old, is tall, is near sighted, has trouble with his sinuses, and is unmar ried. He lives in a section of New York called Brook lyn Heights.

At five he won a gold medal for drawing Tom Mix jailing some outlaws. Know ing a good thing when he saw it, he drew nothing else for the next three years. But, there were no more gold medals. He went to school in New York, receiving his art train ing at the Art 'Students' League and Pratt Institute. j He was employed as assistant to several cartoonists. For three years he ghost-scripted a syndicated feature and drew a Sunday page called "Clifford." "I've led a checkeredless career," he says. In 1951 he dropped every thing and hitchhiked around the country. He returned home and got drafted. In the army he began writing books of cartoon satire.

Speeches by Devaney and Dye and some new cheers will highlight the rally. The administration has put an emphatic "no" to letting fraternity pledge classes have a sign carrying contest, ac cording to Corn Cob officials. Apparently the injuries suf fered by pledges in the past became too numerous. Signs Outlawed Until 1900 the sign carrying contest was the highlight of the first rally. The idea was for the pledge classes to race for a first position at the Un ion and at the same time destroy other pledge classes' signs. Pledges of Delta Tau Delta also will not be able to carry their bell. The bell which formerly belonged to the Phi Delta Thetas in the past has incited near riots.
