Student tickets will in
crease in price from $7 to
$10, and the method of ob

semester, according to James
Pittenger, ticket manager.
Since school begins relative

the students will be paying
their fees, and obtaining their
student identification cards
on Sept. 18, 19 and 20. The
first football game will be
played on the 21st.
Due to the proximity of the
first game to the payment of
fees, it will be impossible to

lottery, said Pittenger.
-Instead, during the period
of fee payment, the ticket of

IFC Adopts
Constitution
The entire revised constitu
tion of the Interfraternity
Council (IFC) was adopted
last night.
The debate on the constitu
tion was slight. According to
l; rules, the new version
must be presented and dis
cussed a week before its
adootion. As a result, the
main objections and changes
were made last week.
The constitution itself was
adooted article bv article, but
the by-laws were adopted as
a whole. This was done be
cause of the new structure
of the IFC's Constitution.
The new set-up calls for a
skeleton Constitution which
should last unchanged for a
long period of time, and a
set of by-laws which can be
slipped in when needed.
According to Grant
Greeorv. chairman of the
Fraternity Management Asso
ciation (MA), nearly an or
the bids from suppliers have
been received, and all but
one of next year's partici
pants have been selected Dy
his committee.
Greeorv stated that mem
bers of the FMA will be con
tacting the campus living
units this week in order to
solicit support for next Year's
program. He pointed out in
his report that the larger fra
ternities had saved approxi
mately $1000 during the past
year as a result of their
FMA participation.
Phi KaDDa Tau. a national
fraternity with a chapter at
Nebraska Wesleyan, is very
interested m colonizing here
at the University, according
to Dick Rsoenbere. chairman
of the IFC's expansion com
mittee. Rosenberg said that
the only problem they face
is finding a place to live. If
this housing problem were
solved, the university wouia
probably have another fra
ternity. Three men were elected to

Peace Corps Officers
Say 'Response Great'
To Recruiting Center
By GARY MILLER
Nebraskan Staff Writer
Peace Corps officers have
aDDeared this week before nu
merous class sessions, clubs,
fraternities, sororities and
other organizations to speak
on the opportunities tor reace
"The response has been
great," said Robert Bryan,
assistant to the Chief of Pub
lic Information for the Peace
Corps. "The whole campus
has had a particular interest
in how the Peace Corps func
tions." He is very pleased
with the intelligent and pene
trating questions received by
the students particularly
the seniors and graduate stu
dents. Bryan stated that every
member of the team Is very
impressed with the serious
ness of the students in re
gard to their grades and plans
for future careers.
Headquarters were opened
last Monday and will contin
ue through tomorrow. They
are available from 9 a.m. to
4 p.m., and in the evenings
after 7:15 p.m. On Saturday
the headquarters will be open
9 a.m. until noon.
During these times students
may take the Peace Corps
test, see movies or have in
formal talks. The one-hour
test is a shortened version of
the original four-hour exam.
Applicants taking the test
while the team is here will
be notified within two weeks
of the results.
Those applicants with a
knowledge of either French
or Spanish should take an
additional language test which
k n
UND2
mittee, led the discussion on
the parking problem at the
University.
For the first time in the
history of the University,
there will not be enough
parking spaces to accommo
date the number of students
requiring them.
Dean Ross told the Coun
cil that the parking situation
involves three major prob
lems: developing a system of
priorities on assigning the
available parking stalls,
forming a plan which would
end the "shopping traffic"
which circles the library mall
looking for a possible parking
space, and deciding who
lasts one hour.
The test is
non-competitive.
Bryan stated, "I can think
of no hetter wav to make a
personal contribution to bet
ter understanding among peo
ple, and to world peace, than
by joining the jpeace uorps;
nor is there any better way
to further one's own career."
Dr. Joseph Gallagher, di
rector of the Medical Divi
sion of the Peace Corps,
said "I feel that the greatest
results of our visit here at
the University will follow
after the team leaves."
Dr. Gallagher feels that Ne
braska is vibrating with
Peace Corps activity. "There
is a very definite increase
in the interest of the Peace
Corps now in contrast to
when the Center first opened.
According to Peace Corps
members the tour most com
mon misconceDtions that stu
dents hold are: "I don't have
a skill; I don't speak a lan
guage; I am a liberal arts
student: and I can't afford
it."
Another question asked is,
"What does it take to quali
fy?" There are four oualif ica-
tions: Intelligence, courage,
maturity and compassion
You do not have to know a
language. If vou have these
basic qualifications, you may
be able to serve in one of
4,000 Peace Corps jobs in 44
countries for training in
June, July and August, law.
"Our " appreciation and
thanks to all the students who
have dropped in and helped,"
were the words of wastung
ton D.C. team.

should be able to park on
the campus propor in the ex
isting spaces.
Donaldson pointed out that
each car requires 350 square
feet. If the car-student ratio
continues at the present rate,
by the time the University
enrollment reaches 20,000, the
parking spaces needed would
completely wipe out the pres
ent campus.
The University Is presently
trying to maintain every
parking place we have within
the campus now, he said.

Buffalo, N.Y. - (IP.) -
The Board of Trustees of the
State University of New York
recently reaffirmed its policy
which does not permit nation
al social fraternities and so
rorities within the State Uni
versity System. Dr. Richard
A. Siggelkow, dean of stu
dents at the State University
of New York at Buffalo,
stated that the University has
been asked to comply with
the policy.
A maximum penod of five
academic years, ending June,
1967. has been set as the
time for disaffiliation. The
administration had previously
requested an opportunity to
ask the trustees to reconsider
the policy, but the Board re
affirmed current policy.
The University Senate Com
mittee on fraternal affairs, of
which the presidents of I.F.C.
and Pangellenic are mem
bers, has been asked to de
velop a plan for compliance
with this ruling. Both IFC
and Panhellenic are mem
invited to establish procedures
for carrying out this plan.
According to Dean Siggel
kow, "We are now a part of
the State University of New
York, and we will comply
with the ruling." He also
stated that Associate dean,
Jeannette Scudder, who is
dean of women, will act as
the liaison for the dean of
students' office with the na
tional offices. Dean Scudder
will also coordinate with the
campus groups the ultimate
nroeedures established. Ac-
cording to a University
spokesman, the nationals may
act as "free agents" in pro
testing the decision, but the
administration can no longer
contest it.
Omaha will participate in
the new Officer Education
Program when it becomes
law the two year OEP will
replace the present four-year
Air Force ROTC program.
Major features of the OEP
call for:
'Orientation of the entire
oroeram to the production of
professionally qualified regu
lar and reserve officers for
service careers.
F.Ktablishment of a two-year
on-campus course of instruc
tion given during me junior
and senior years.
Thrno hours of classroom
instruction per week for each
semester ot tne iwo year pro
gram.
Two summer training per
iods, one during the summer
prior to entry into the pro-
cram and one touowing sraa
uation.
A scholarshlD of approxi
mately $2,200 for each select
ed candidate for commission
to be paid directly to the
cadet.
A reauirement to serve at
least four years o i active
duty.
To get into the UKr, a
student must pass the Air
Force Officers Qualifying
Test, the physical exam, have
good academic standing, and
ho interviewed bv an O&P
selection Board. All students
who at the time of enrollment
n th new oroeram have two
of academic work re
maining before the awarding
of a baccalaureate or nigner
rfpprce would be eligible to
apply for the OEP. One ad
vantage of the uvr over me
present AFROTC program:
the student's time spend in
the OEP classes will be cut
down.

"There will always be the old
debate on the mall in front
of the Coliseum, but you will
find many people opposed to
making the campus look like
a boiler factory," he said. He
added that the mall north of
Love Library used to be
a grass area.
"I am not interested in
whether the fee is $10, $20,
$30 or $40," said Donaldson,
"because it costs much more
beyond that to Improve and
maintain the land now used
for parking spaces,' let alone
to buy new land."
The money from the fee
paid on the areas Is not the
down payment, but rather the
interest, he said.
He noted the additional ex
penses such as resurfacing,
adding lights, removing
buildings from future lots,
and cinder surfacing some
lots.
Because of the expansion
of the University, Donaldson
mentioned possible parking
areas some distance from the
campus. He said that Wiscon
sin now has a shuttle bus
service from the parking lots
to the campus.
"I think that the Ag-City
campus bus will help relieve
the situation somewhat," Don
aldson said. The other possi
bilities are ehminating fresh
man cars from the campus
and organizing pool rides. He
said he was against the for
mer if there are enough park
ing stalls available and he
was not sure how to organize
pool riding.
"I believe that the time has
come to have some priori
ties." he said. "Every year we
have to do some gambling
and we will have to do the
same next year. The ratio of
stalls to narking permits is a
little over 2:1 while if the
University started restricting
the students so they had to
nark in certain areas, the ra
tio would probably be on a
1:1 basis, he said, we nave
to gamble on how that ratio
changes."
Donaldson said that all
over the country, students
are being asked more ana
more to pay a fair share of
the parking problem.
He predicted that in thirty
vears. the University "city
campus" will be pushing to
the Ag campus, but ne aaaea
that he hones that the aca
demic space will remain in
the ten minute walking area.
In answer to a Question
concerning the possibility of
assuring the students perma
nent lots, Donaldson said that
if he told the Council such
and such lots would be per-.
manent he would be a liar
within a week.
He pointed out that another
ara where the University is
lacking is in developing land
for just "plain play. He add
ed that the life of an asphalt
lot is ten to twelve years so
permanent parking would be
a problem to assure.
He was asked if more aft-
prnnon rlasscs would helD
solve the parking problem
, t 4.1 4.
and Jjonaidson answereu uuu
this is already coming about
anri hp foresees, even more
such classes because of the
increasing enrollment ana
lack of classroom space.
Donaldson said mat me
Council must decide how
much the students who drive
should be penalized.
Redman said that he did
not believe that the Council
had been given justification
for the $10 raise and that
he believes it will be neces
sary eventually, but not at
the present.
The Council has never be
fore participated in the park
ing tee question ana nas nev
er before been asked its opin
inn nn it said Dean Ross. He
added that any recommenda
tion the Council makps will
receive consideration.
Tn other business Dean
Ross explained that new ac
tivities program me Adminis
tration had originated. He
said that he had discussed
with the activities committee
of the 1962-63 Council that
idea of a person who would
work in the student activity
area.
Bob Kotecha was sworn in
as the new Nebraska Inter
national Students' representative.
