"How did we start singing together?
Well, somebody came up to me once and
said Joe, this is Eddie, Eddie, this is
Joe. And we just burst into song right
there as we shook hands."
This was how Joe Brown explained
to the DAILY NEBRASKAN the way that
Joe and Eddie, popular vocal duo, first
started singing together.
"Bat not really," he went on. "Ac
tually, Eddie and I were friends in junior
basketball team together the 98 pound
"D" team, that is."
"When a local talent show competi
tion came up. and both of us decided to
enter, people wondered how it would af
fect our friendship," Joe went on. "We
were 12 and 13 at the time."
"So we sang together," piped in Ed
die, "and went from there."
The songs sung by Joe and Eddie
are original arrangements. They "sing
out" the songs until they think they sound
right.
Eddie Gilbert is 22 and is from Berke
ly, Calif.; Joe Brown is 23 and from New
Orleans. They became good friends In
1D5L
The two young men expressed their
ideas in clever jokes and also very ser
ious thoughts.
When asked about their future if and
when the current folk music trend dies,
Joe and Eddie replied that they would
"keep on singing . . . Since we are able
to sing many different types of music
and are not restricted primarily to the
10 a.m. session and Arts and
Sciences, Business Adminis
tration, Dentistry, Law, Phar
macy and graduate students

the 3:15 p.m. session.
Although the summer and
February ceremonies have
been held in this manner be
fore, the June graduation has
traditionally taken place in
the Coliseum in one session.
Unbearable heat and over
crowded conditions made the
change to Pershing desirable,
Miss Thomsen said. "As far
as commencement is con -
cerned, we have outgrown the
Coliseum."
All graduating seniors will
receive a letter of information
and instruction concerning the
ceremony about May 25. They
are required to wear caps and
gowns. Miss Thompsen said,

Political Groups Plan
Summer's Activities
Leaders of three campus political organizations outlined
yesterday plans to continue their preparations for the party
conventions and the November elections through the summer.
Bill Harding, Young Repub-
"can (YR) president, said
that the group would not dis-
session, in activities wuiuue
me compiling ot mes aooui
candidates and issues for stu
dent use between now and the
elections in November, Hard
ing said.
Harding said the group
would be active in supporting
GOP candidates for national
and state offices following the
Republican National Conven
tion in San Francisco.
The Young Democrats (YD)
plan to campaign for specific
candidates until the end of
the semester, according to Ka
ren Nelsen, president of the
organization.
The group will be "active
rather than educational" in its
actions, Miss Nelsen said.
Plans are under way for a
May 23 workshop and several
off-campus speakers.

Hove Original
folk manner, we plan to make music
all types our career. We, of course,
were helped by the rise in popularity of
folk music, as was everyone even re
motely connected with folk music," Ed
die went on. "The calypso craze started
by Harry Belafonte was shortlived, too,
but Belafonte still makes a tremendous
amount of money each year.
"Anyway," Eddie said, "we don't
like to be referred to as 'folk singers'. We
would rather be called a 'vocal duo', since
our songs are not just 'folk' songs."
Taste in music for Joe and Eddie
ranges from Roger Wagner to Ray Charles.
"We like it all," Joe commented, "and
the way we look at it, there is no bad
music, there are just bad performers."
"No" was the answer to a question
asking if the two involved their singing
with the civil rights movement "Of
course, as Negroes, we are definitely in
volved in the movement," Joe said. "But
we don't feel that our music is the place
for protest. Our songs are meant as en
tertainment, and nothing else."
"Don't yon want to converse with our
guitarist, Louis? He's a very intellectual
yonng man and' well traveled has
been abroad. Canada and Mexico." Joe
rattled on.
Guitarist Louis Shelton, who has been
with Joe and Eddie for about a year, sat
quietly and smiled at the witticisms of
the two young men.
Eddie spoke in whispers throughout
the interview. "I have a sore throat," he
breathed, "gotta save my voice."
Nebraskan
"Procedural faults" in the
Fraternity Management Asso
ciation's (FMA) handling of
bidding for food products has
resulted in changes of the
FMA's system of letting con
tracts this spring.
According to informed
sources, one Lincoln business
in particular has "questioned
FMA's integrity whn com
paring bids." FMA Chairman
Doyle Kauk said that a
lack of criteria for businesses
to base their bids on, has
caused some resentment and
considerable "undercutting"
of the FMA contracts in the
fall.
The DAILY NEBRASKAN
learned yesterday that one
businessman went so far as to
by-pass FMA jurisdiction and
carry his complaint to a
Board of Regent member and
Chancellor Clifford Hardin.
Kauk said that the complaint
was legitimate and that his
committee is working direct
ly with the University Pur
chasing Department "to
establish criteria for the bid
ders to base their contracts
on."
Kauk said that starting this
spring, no bids will be opened
until a public reading of all
bids sometime nest week.
Kauk and his committee are
presently working on a uni
form contract basis so that
constitution will be rewritten
as Miss Nelsen promised at
the time of her election. Also
during the summer, an exten
sive file and cross file on all
members will be compiled in
order to speed up the process
of selection for commit
tees and projects.
State chairman Chuck Marr
of the Nebraska Youth for
Goldwater said that a cam
paign will be carried on for
Sen. Barry Goldwater "from
now until he is nominated in
San Francisco and until he is
elected in November."
Marr said that the YG's will
visit Republican dinners and
campaign for Goldwater, show
films and distribute literature.
A special train will go from
coast to coast shortly before
the convention taking Goldwa
ter supporters to San Francis
co. He also announced plans
for a Nebraska-Iowa Goldwa
ter rally, sometime before
the convention.

no business can claim "un
ethical practices."
Last fall the problem be
came apparent when local
businesses went around to
some University houses and
offered lower contracts than
the FMA contract. Kauk said
that the actual low bidder had
been selected, but that no bid
list had been published. This
fall, Kauk said any busi
ness attempting to undercut
the FMA contract at houses
who have signed up, can be
prosecuted.
"In the past, our lack of a
public reading and bidding
criteria made it impossible
for us to object to contract
undercutting in the fall. Now
we can, and I am glad the
problem has come to our at
tention," Kauk said.
A member of the Board of
Regents and business repre
sentatives will be present to
validate the low bid accept
ance at the public reading of
Blood Bank Set
For Emergencies
In the case of disaster,
University students who are
injured will be able to get
blood transfusions immediate
ly from the Walking Blood
Bank carried on by Student
Health and Red Cross.
The Walking Blood Bank
consists of 85 students who
have volunteered to give blood
whenever it is needed by fel
low students. Their names
and blood types are kept on
file at Student Health for im
mediate access.
Those who signed up to take
part in the Bank should go to
the Student Health laboratory
to have their blood tested be
tween now and May 22. The
laboratory is open Monday
through Friday from 8-12 a.m.
and from 1-5 p.m.

The deadline for applica
tions for Student Tribunal
members is today.
Interviews will be Saturday

tions are available in the Stu
dent Council office in the
Union.
Four senior, two junior and
one law student positions are
open. The law student must
have completed at least one
year. Applicants must be in
the upper 50 of their class
and may not be on Student
Council the same year.
The Student Tribunal hears
cases regarding student dis

the bids next week, according
to Kauk. He said the reading
was originally scheduled for
yesterday, but that he wanted
to circulate the newly-established
bidding criteria.
Kauk said that Administra
tion officials J. Winston Mar
tin, dean of Student Affairs,
and Eugene Ingram, par
chasing department, had ad
vised the change in FMA pro
was no dishonesty involved
on FMA's part, but that it
was a matter of "procedural
faults."
One problem confronting
FMA next fall is that houses
are not forced to accept the
FMA low bid. This allows
other competing businesses to
bargain with the houses.
Kauk said that he anticipates
no trouble with University
houses. He added that if the
competing businesses attempt
to undercut the already
signed FMA contract, then
"legal action" will definitely
betaken.
Kauk said he did not
favor a compulsory compli
ance by houses of the FMA
bid. He said he didn't feel
the houses should be forced
"into something they didn't
want to do."
