tee could gather the necessary
information. :
Public Issues Chairman
Tom Kort announced that
Senator Marvin Stromer will
conduct a forum on the liquor
laws and the problems con
nected with it Monday in the
student Union.
Weill presented a three
point "feasible plan" for the
discrimination committee to
use in conducting its study.
He said that the investigation
will cover discrimination
against Negroes and foreign
students and include back
ground, statistics and state
ments from those who have
come into contact with dis
crimination.
"By presenting this data.
we could draw up a report
which would need no recom
mendation, a report from
which the Council could draw
its own conclusions," said
Weill.

Hopper-ResistantPlants
Shown By Research
A number rof alfalfa clones
have shown resistance to po
tato leafhopper injury said Dr.
J. L. Jarvis,' entomologist with
the Research Service of the
United States Department of
Agricultural station at the
University.
Jarvis addressed a recent
meeting of the North Central
Branch of the Entomological
Society of America.
The leafhoppers are not as
much of a problem in Nebras
ka1 as in more humid eastern
states, but are the cause of
some damage here, said Jar
vis. , ; ; - . . i
The Council's action in ap
proving this amendment was
challenged Thursday by Ron
being unconstitutional be'
cause it was passed after the
required 28 day deadline for
amendments.
Following Weill's announce
ments, President Dennis
Christie outlined some of the
provisions of the controversi
al constitution presented by
John Klein. In answering a
question from Bobby Kotecha
about why the constitution
was referred to the judiciary
committee rather than the
Council, Christie said tha ve
Council as a whole has
jurisdiction in a petition of
that type and content.
In presenting the senators
committee final report, Chair
man Denny Swanstrom sug
gested that the Council enlist
the help of other campus or
ganizations in creating inter
est in the program, as well
as contracting students and
senators. He listed AUF,
Young Republicans, Young
Democrats and Builders as
groups that could be helpful
in that capacity.
Swanstrom recommended
that participants take a more
objective role in the Senators
Program. "Last year the pro
gram was too subtle in what
it tried to accomplish," he
said. "Let's let them know:
we want more money."
Gary Oye, chairman of tha
parking committee, told the
Council that the parking situ,
ation shbuld run smoothly
next year. "Area Two might
be tight, however," he added.
Oye said that the University
business office is presently
working on a solution for the
Area Two parking area, which
accommodates the cars of on
campus students.
