Council Expresses
'Strong Disapproval'
By Frank Partsch
Senior Staff Writer
Student Council yesterday unanimously passed a res
olution expressing "strong disapproval" of the refusal of
a Lincoln barber shop to serve a University student be
cause he was a Negro.
The resolution, introduced by Joann Stratemann, re
ferred to the Capital Hotel Barber Shop's refusal to cut
Sam Skeete's hair. Skeete was told that the shop was
not allowed to serve Negroes.
"If we are interested lu the welfare of the students,
as I assume we are, we should take an interest in this
issue," said Miss Stratemann.
The motion called attention to an apparent violation
of LB364 which allows everyone equal rights to public
services, and referred action to the Public Issues com
mittee for action.
Tom Kort, chairman of the Public Issues conusaittee,
said that action will be directed towards eliminating dis
crimination in general rather than atoning for the Skeete
incident in particular.
"We aren't trying to involve Mr. Skeete in any Wg
controversy," said Kort. "We can use this event as evi
dence that things of this type do happen in Lincoln."
During the extensive discussion following the intro
duction of the resolution, Del Rasmussen asked the Council
to postpone action until next week to enable the members
to study the issue. Ann Wahl moved to table the motion,
but promptly withdrew her motion.
Mike Barton said that
there should be no hesi
tation on passage of the
motion merely on the basis
of confusion in the wording
of the motion or the state
law to which it refers. "In
this case a law has clearly
been broken," he said.
The Council also passed
a series of changes in the
wording of the University
traffic regulations in a com
mittee report by Gary Oye,
chairman of the Parking
committee.
The revisions include
restricting faculty parking
on A? CamDus to facnltv
areas only; making "green" Miss Strateman
areas open to all University-registered parking for 15 min
utes; changing faculty area hours so that they end at
2:30 rather than 3 p.m. and deleting the section which
raises the fine to $5 after six offenses and results in au
tomatic suspension of parking rights after the 13th of
fense. Oye maintained that offenders who were forced to
pay more per ticket because they had more than six of
fenses on record were being treated unfairly.
If the changes are accepted Iy the faculty senate,
the fine will remain the same no matter how many tick
ets are on the student's record.
In other business the Council heard the results of the
representation poll taken by Jim Baer and the mem
bers of the Representation committee. Baer reported that
210 forms were returned.
Some of the questions on the pool and the percentage
of yes and no answers were:
Are you familiar with the present system of repre
sentation? 51 per cent yes; 49 per cent no.
Are yon satisfied with the present system? 54 per
cent yes; 46 per cent no.
Do you favor representation by colleges only? 32 per
cent yes; 68 per cent no.
Do you favor representation by living units alone?
36 per cent yes; 64 per cent no.
Do you favor a voting faculty member on Council?
40 per cent yes ; 60 per cent no.
James Gibson, Peace Corps assistant director of re
cruiting, told the Council that six more members will ar
rive next week to speak to upperclassmen about the bene
fits which the Corps offers.
He urged all interested groups to contact him at
extensions 2450 or 2182 to arrange speaking appointments
before Saturday. Gibson said that the Peace Corps will
provide a booth in the Student Union at which informa
tion and questionnaires can be obtained.
Anyone wishing to take the Peace Corps placement
examination can do so by presenting one of the ques
tionnaires when he comes to take the test.
The tests will be given in the Union at 2; 30, 4:38 and
7 p.m. Monday through Friday and at 9 a.m. Saturday.
Dick Weill, vice president, announced that the con
stitutions of Cather Hall, 4-H and the National Association
of Homemakers have complied with Council regulations
and moved their approval. The three constitutions were
approved.
Students interested in applying for a position on the
University delegation to the Nebraska Wesleyan Univer
sity Model United Nations may sign up for Sunday inter
views on the door of the Student Council office.
