Student Council decided yes
terday to set up a committee
which will establish a "serv
ice day" on the University
campus when students will
help the city of Lincoln with
community projects.
This committee will be
made up of Student Council
members and members of the
United Christian College Fel
lowship and other organiza
tions on campus.
Kent Ncumelster, who Intro
duced the motion setting up
the committee, said that a
service day would make more
students conscious of commu
nity problems and would real
ly help the city.
Roger Uiff, who is a mem
ber of UCCF, also said that a
day devoted to community
service will help students be
come more involved in the

Parties

Future Election
Prompts Action
The passage of the new Stu
dent Association Constitution
last month has prompted the
formation of the first active
student political party at the
University, according to Mike
Gottschalk.
A meeting Tuesday evening
was attended by over thirty
University students, many of
whom are candidates for the
upcoming student government
elections May 5.
The name Vox Popull, a
Latin word meaning "voice of
the people," was decided upon
for the party.
Those attending the group's
first meeting agreed that the
creation of a political party
was necessary to bring into
reality the dynamic student
government made possible by
the new constitution, G o 1 1 s
chalk said.
The students also discussed
the value of a political party
for providing a broader base
for participation in student
government.
The formation of this party
is aimed at producing more
active campaigning, empha
sizing Issues rather than pop
ularity and producing a more
active Interest In the Univer
sity community for their stu
dent government, according
to Gottschalk.
Study groups were formed
to gather Information on book
store pricing policies, off-campus
housing, student-administration,
student-faculty rela
tionships and the pros and
cons of closing the campus
to traffic.
The findings of these com
mittees will be Incorporated
into the party platform which
will be voted upon at the next
meeting, Apr. 27.
Any students interested in
the party should leave their
name and telephone number
at the Daily Nebraskan of
fice and they will be contact
ed and notified of further par
ty activity.
Five students from the Col
lege of Arts and Sciences have
pledged their mutual support
in the upcoming Student Sen
ate elections, to work for a
better student government
and a better University.
The students are Joe Car
roll, Phil Boardman, Joan
McClymont, Ron Pfeifer and
Mel Schlachter.
The issues on which they
base their campaign are:
The formation of a student
advisory board for the College
of Arts and Sciences.
Further investigation by the
Student Welfare Committee
into the many traffic, recrea
tional and library problems.
Closer contact between the
students and their administra
tion, t)he student senators and
their constituents and the stu
dents and administration.
An investigation and Im
provement of the Senators

community and help both the
community and the students.
It was suggested that this
day should become a perma
ment event on campus with
importance similar to that of
Spring Day and Ivy Day.
Larry Drost from the Lin
coln Health Department point
ed out that a "service day"
could help the city and gave
an example of what such a
day could do yet this year.
Drost explained that the city
was holding several big clean
up days in May in areas of
the city where housing is in
poor condition.
He explained that the city
had taken a block-by-block
survey of Lincoln and had
marked off the areas of the
city where the garbage dis
posal and other sanitary con
ditions were poor.
"If students at Nebraska
want to help us with this
drive," he pointed out, "we'll
find something for them to do.
He suggested that the boys
could do physical labor and
the girls could do leg-work.
This clean-up drive was just
a suggestion of what a "serv
ice day" could do this year.
Other things it could do each
year would be connected with
charity drives, the Salva
tion Army, Lark School, Ma
lone Center and other activi
ties and organizations in Lin
coln. Before the motion was
passed, Skip Soiref questioned
Student Council's role in or
ganizing such a day.
Larry Frolik said, "Student
Council Is what we make it
and if we want we can con
cern ourselves only with busy
work that has to be done,
but isn't paticularly signifi
cant. If we want to make the
Council meaningful we will do
things like this."
Other business at the meet
ing included a detailed report
from the Parking Committee
which explained what the stu
dents' money for stickers and

fines was used for at the Uni
versity. Don Cruise, a member of
that committee, said that be
tween September 1963 and
August 1964 there was an ex
cess of revenues over expend!
tures of $15,557.52 from the
parking permits and fines.
He emphasized the fact that
this $15,557.52 Is not a profit.
Captain Masters from the
University Police told the
Council that In years to come
there probably will be a rise
In the cost of permits.
He pointed out that the Uni

for parking. Besides bonds, he
said, the only way the Uni

ramps would be by raising the
charge for permits and fines.

In Belleek, Remain In
By Rich Meier
Junior Staff Writer
Selleck and Twin Towers will remain co-educational
according to Ed Bryon, housing director.
"The north part of Selleck, the eight, one, two, and
three thousand buildings, will be girls. Cather will remain
men. There will be no change on East Campus. And we
have reached no decision about Capital yet," he said.
The cost for the conversion of Selleck will be quite a
bit, "but we have not figured the actual cost in dollars
yet," Bryon said. "Quarters for the women's resident di
rector must be built, the bathrooms must be changed,
and there is some furnishing and repainting to be done."
"There are two lounges with fireplaces that aren't be
ing used properly and we will fix these. This is something
that we would do even if the women weren't moving in," .
he said.
"One thing that has perplexed us is the upgrading of
Selleck. There is a high degree of furniture breakage, and
mistreating of the facilities by the fellows. The attitude
in the past has been, 'if they are not going to treat it
well then why buy them good furniture?' "
"We are now trying to get the students to tell us what
they want, and thus have some assurance of good treat
ment." "The problem here seems to be that Selleck is spread
out so much that there is a lack of identification with the
hall, with their surroundings. The only thing the guys
seem to feel is their own is their room."
"There has been little breakage in Cather. There
seems to be more of a sense of pride. We have had some
furniture carried off though."
Having girls and boys living together "is good for
both," according to Kathy Froebe, resident of Selleck.
She said, "The guys act more human, and the girls put
more effort out. The girls spend that extra minute be
fore the mirror."
"If we didn't have any girls around here everybody
would start acting like animals," said John Valaika, 71
Cather.
Linda Peck, a junior resident of Selleck said, "I plan
to live in Selleck next year. I like the convenience to the
campus and the co-ed living that Selleck provides."
"I transferred here from Greely," she went on, "and
they have co-ed housing, so I was quite surprised to find

my room assignment down here was co-ed too."
"I think that co-ed housing socially helps both boys
and girls. They are more on the ball in manners, dress,
and even running down for a coke. No one gets too grubby,
if you know what I mean.
"There is only one disadvantage that I can see to liv
ing here in Selleck. There should be separated facilities
for washing, and television for the girls for after hours,"
she said.
Bryon commended the Committee for Co-educational
Housing in their work. "The work coincided with some of
our objectives, and they did a fine job.
"Some of the things we did, we wouldn't have done
without the support of the students, though. We probably
wouldn't have divided Selleck, and allowed Cather to con
tinue to house men, for example," he said.
Jim Imler, Chairman of the Co-ed Housing Commit
tee, said, "I hope that co-ed housing is continued in the
future. Our studies seemed to show that the majority of
students wanted co-cd housing, that it is feasible, and has
many things to offer."
There will be 436 girls in Selleck, 480 in Pound, and
552 in WRH, next year, according to Bryon.
He said that he does not anticipate an overflow, but
that it will be close. "In terms of prediction, we expect
an excess of less than 50."
"In January, we expect the new girls' dorm next to
Abel Hall to be completed. We hope to be able to use this
second semester. We are, therefore, because of the hous
ing situation, encouraging those women who are doubtful
in any way to come to the University second semester.
"In the future we are planning another residence com
plex on north fourteenth, the other side of Nebraska Hall.
This is due for construction in 1967.
"There has been no discussion of raises of the cost
for room and board. There will be no increase next year,
and we will do everything to keep costs down."
K-State Veterinarian
Joins University Staff
A former Kansas State Uni
versity faculty member has
been appointed by the Uni
versity Board of Regents to
the staff of the Department
of Veterinary Science, effec
tive July 1.
He is Dr. Charles Mebus,
who will assume responsibil
ities for histopathology work
in the department. Mebus is a
member of the board of the
American College of Veteri
nary Pathology. From 1963-65,
he served as associate profes
sor of veterinary pathology at
Kansas State, and was a staff
assistant from 1960-63. From
1958-60, he was in general
practice as a veterinarian at
Dover, Del.
Mebus, who will hold the
rank of professor at Nebras
ka, received his M.S. and
PH.D. degrees from Kansas
State University In 1902 and
19G3, respectively. He received
his D.V.M. degree from Cor
nell University in 1956.
Dr. M. J. Twiehaus, chair
man of the Department of Vet
inary Science, said the ap
pointment of Mebus will ful
fill a long-standing need of the
department to more thorough

ly investigate the pathogene
sis or development of diseas
agents in the body of animals.
"His experience as a prac
titioner in the field and re
searcher in virus diseases will
greatly assist the Department
of Veterinary Science in
studying viral diseases in
meat producing animals in
Nebraska," Twiehaus said.
One of the pressing prob
lems that the industry faces
today from a disease stand
point is fetal deaths in swine
and cattle. Twiehaus and his
staff believe that viral gents
arc of primary importance in
these losses.
The research in this area by
the veterinary science staff
indicates that viral agents can
pass the placental barrier 'n
the pregnant animal, destroy
the fetus or feti and then
disappear, and as a result, no
evidence of the virus can be
found when losses occur.
"Dr. Mebus will be a k e y
member of the research team
in the Department of Veteri
nary Science to further ex
plore losses in our meat pro
ducing animals," Twiehaus
concluded.
