which have appeared on campus. The design is the sym

work of pranksters.

Miss Nelsen said that her
ultimate goal for the YD's "is
a cohesive unit of energetic
YD's working for a song
Democratic party on this
campus."
Concerning her plans as
president, she said that she
plans to set up a temporary
committee to investigate the
constitution of the organiza
tion. "It is five years old and
badly outmoded," she said,
"and I feel that a strong con
stitution is imperative for a
strong group."

AUF Amendment
On Winter Ballot
The amendment to the Student Council constitution pro
viding for a representative for All University Fund (AUF)
will not appear on the ballot until December, according to
a judiciary committee ruling
The motion was passed!
April 8, but challenged the
next day by two students,
Ron Rogowski and Bob Cher
ny, who maintained that the
proposed amendment was
passed later than the speci
fied date for such amend
ments. The committee based its
ruling on Article Ten, section
one, subsection A, of the con
stitution which says "pro
posals for amendments may
be originated by a two-thirds
vote of the Student Council."
A committee statement said
"The committee interpreted
this to mean that a resolu
tion brought to the Council
becomes a proposal tor an
amendment upon receiving a
two-thirds vote.
The AUF motion was
passed 26 days before the
spring election although it
had been submitted to t h e
Council two weeks earlier.
An amendment must be sub
mitted at least 28 days be
fore the election, according
to the Council constitution.
The confusion surrounding
the action grew out of t h e
definition of the word "sub
mitted." Jim Baer, who in
troduced the amendment and
the motion to table it for con
sideration, explained his in
terpretation of "submitted"
as being brought before the
Council.
The decision of the
judiciary committee means
that future constitutional
amendments may be au
tomatically killed by , the
Council floor by tabling
them until after the dead
line. Scrip Entries Due
The deadline for the SCRIP
short story and poetry contest
is 5 p.m. today.

Miss Nelsen said that sh
hopes to increase YD mem
