"AUF Motion (AUF) may not appear on the spring ballot because it was not passed prior to the re quired 28 day deadline for tions had been picked up be fore yesterday morning, but at that time only 16 of them had been filed. No applications have been returned from the Colleges of Law and Dentistry and the Graduate College, w h i c h is entitled to five representa tives. "It is hoped that the graduate and professional students will take advantage of this opportunity for repre sentation," said Miss Pierce. "A graduate student could be a valuable asset to the Council and I would like to see this new system given a fair chance." Graduate rep resentation was increased with an amendment last year which goes into effect next fall. Add iss, Croiut Concert To Show World Irani Folk sincers Addiss and Cro- fut, who have appeared every where from Japan to Kenya, bring literally a "world of tal ent" to the Union ballroom April 17 from 7 to 9 p.m. Tickets are 1 at the Union ticket desk to hear ambassa dor musicians who have sung and played in over 20 lan guages. The event is spon sored by the Union special events committee. Steve Addiss and Bill Cro- fut renewed their high school acquaintance in Japan where Crofut was serving his Army nbiiirat on. Crofut had been playing at Japanese and Kor ean orphanages and after his discharge, Prince Mikwa asked him to give a concert tour. Crofut's successful Japanese tour led to a U.S. State De partment invitation for an Asi an and African tour. Feeling the two artists would be more effective than one. Crofut sent for Addiss who joined him and received his own grant from the State Department. Most of the pair's enthusi estic receptions stem from their personal treatment of each country thev visit. Even in Ethoipia, where they had less than three hours between arrival and concert time, they learned one of that nation's popular melodies. -MISS MIDSHIPMAN TO BE Miss Longford MISS MIDSHIPMAN WILL RE AD MIRALFinalists for Miss Midshipman 1964 will be presented at this year's Na vy Ball, April 17.

As a result of their trip, Crofut is known as Gsiosio "the energy-filled one" and Addiss as Changmu "fte mysterious one" by the Kisli Tribe in Kenya. Profis from some of their concerts is be ing donated to preventive medicine clinics in Kenya and Nigeria. Addiss and Crofut caught the public eye in November of 1962 when they sang at a party for delegates to the Uni ted Nations. A satirical ditty of their own called "Twelve Days with Krushchev," por traying the summit meeting between Khrushchev and the late President John Kennedy highlighted their evening. Among the charmed audi ence was U.S. Ambassador Adlai Stevenson. Record exec utives soon heard of the suc cessful evening and Addiss and Crofut soon became a well-heard attraction of folk singing buffs. Since their State Depart ment tour they have com pleted a book, "Folk Music Around the World" and a film, "Songfest in Burma," both of which were designed for people of the Far and Mid dle East, Southeast Asia and Africa. Addiss and Crofut have starred on the CBS show "Calendar," and NBC'S "Wide, Wide World." Miss Dyas J. gtat-.A... , A lfc,''..'.:''- ' s.iNMdl on day in a lengthy meeting, was originally introduced as a rec ommendation of the represen. tation committee chairman on March 25. It was tabled at that time in order to give AUF time to present their case for representation. Weill termed this act the "'inadvertant ere ation of a pocket veto." Weill's statement came yes terday in answer to a letter he received from Ron Rogow ski and Bob Cherny challeng ing Wednesday's action on the basis of the required deadline for placing ameTments on the ballot. "That deadline expired on April 6," they said, "'We should like to call the attention of your committee to what we believe to be as inadvertant error on the part of the Student Council at last Wednesday's meeting (April 8.) At that session, according to the DAILY NEBRASKAN, a proposed amendment to the Student Council Constitution was submitted by two-thirds majority; its purpose was to give an organizational seat to All University Fund. 'If necessary," the letter continued, we shall file an official challenge to prevent the placing of this proposal on the ballot. Please advise us on your decision and the proper procedures for any ac tions you consider it neces sary for us to take to bring this matter to consideration.' '"Rogowski and Cherny hav brought to the judiciary com mittee's attention a procedur al error as far as the AUF proposal is concerned," said Weill. "Without the full commit tee's ruling as they will do in the near future it would seem to me that their protest is well based that AUF's at tempt to get a Student Coun cil seat cannot appear on this spring's ballot. It would have to wait until a constitutional elecion next December." Jim Baer, chairman of the representation committee, said that the problem centers around the definition of the word 'submit." Baer, who in troduced the AUF proposal, said that his committee was aware that tabling the motion would not allow it to return the floor until after the dead line, but that they interpreted the constitution to mean that the amendment must be in troduced to Student Council before the deadline. "When you submit the mo tion to the Council you are submitting it to the students because the Council is repre senting the students," said Baer. "After it comes onto the floor of the Council lt is available to news media and is therefore known to all stu dents." NAMED Miss Stahr man title will be commissioned an ad miral in the Nebraska Navy. The formal affair, to be held in the Lincoln Hotel, Is sponsored by the University's Naval Re serve Officer Training Corps and will honor senior midshipmen to be commis sioned after graduation.
