"I have long been devoted to the YWCA and to the prin ciples and standards which it upholds, but I see a new challenge facing us, a chal lenge that calls us to become a more active student move ment committed to the reali zation of social justice and human dignity for all people," she said. Miss Block compared t h e Vox Populi Formulates Campus Activities Role Vox Populi, the first politi cal party organized on cam pus, plans to expand its role from that of an election or ganization to one of active participation in campus activ ities, according to Bill Mini er, temporary co-chairman. He explained, however, that before becoming a working student organization, the par ty must have a workable con stitution approved by ASUN. "We are in the process of getting such a workable con stitution passed," stated Mi nier, "and Vox Populi plans to become an organization like Young Democrats or Young Republicans, with qual ifications for officers and the party candidates. "Until our constitution is approved. Vox Populi will con tinue to exist, however, as an ex-officio organization." "A proposed constitution, written by Mike Gottschalk, has been mimeographed and will be considered by mem bers of Vox Populi. "Following approval of the constitution, including changes called for by the members, a letter of intent on forming an organization will be sent to ASUN," Minier continued. Minier also enumerated a series of goals for the party this year. Among them are the promotion of student in terest in the student govern ment. In the same area, he hopes that important issues might be brought out into the open and student opinion on these subjects obtained. A specific area in which Vox Populi feels that opinion should be obtained is that of student conduct. "It should be found out what the exact extent of stu dent rights according to the administration is. If it is found that we need more rights, it must then be deter mined why we don t have them," explained Minier. He stressed the implemen tation of the programs brought forth in the Vox Pop uli platform through the Sea ate channels and the Vox Populi senators. In addition, he hoped that Vox Populi would work toward those pro grams of sudden but special interest to the students at the University. A meeting of old members and organizers of Vox Popu li will be announced soon in order to start Vox Populi in to an operating organization. YWCA of today with the YWCA of past days and said she was embarrassed with the YWCA's present role on campus and in the com munity. "In my opinion the Y at the University of Nebraska has fallen into a position of neutrality and has become too comfortable in assuming an educative role on compus, she stated. The Y must take more ac tive stand on issues involving human rights in University policy, the community, na tion and world, she said. She cited fair housing, equal educational opportuni ties, faculty hiring policies, poor instruction and irrele vant courses as examples of problems the Y should take a stand on. "Although our Y is well stocked with activities gen erally acceptable to the cam pus and the community, we have not been very clear about a sense of purpose, Miss Block said. By and large the extent of our commitment has been to provide those services and activities that people will participate in and attend." "We have hidden behind the the security of well-established programs and have dealth with the 'safe' issues confronting us and have Ig nored the more pressing and often controversial issues," she added. "I hope that as individuals and as an organization of young women we will begin to take a stand on important issues and will meet the chal lenges that are calling us," she concluded. 1966-67 NEBRASKA UNION FILM SOCIETY 15 Years of Cinema Excellence The Best in Foreign Films A WOMAN IS A WOMAN (France) DEAR JOHN (Sw.a., THE OVERCOAT (Russia) JULIET OF THE SPIRITS (ltoty) EROICA (Poland) HALLELUJAH THE HILLS (AmwiC0) ALPHAV1LLE (France) GIRL WITH GREEN EYES CARTOUCHE ffrt ASHES AND DIAMONDS (Poland) TLa CLa mm f (Czechesle- IliC JtJvjJ VII IllUlil Jl.

Strains of "Dear 01 Nebraska U" head the parade and excited freshmn and oriented upper classmen alike, join the throngs. Saturday dawns with an air of expectation and Sleepy Tassels and Corn Cobs can be seen peddling red balloons and carnations for the open ing football game. Dapper alums patriotic ally sporting red cowboy hats converge on the campus and coeds are seen frantically searching for coveted football tickets to accomodate unex pected arrivals of hometown boyfriends. On schedule a new crop of fraternity men swarm en masse to the appropriate sorority houses to present smiling pledges with carna tions imprinted with red I KRPfROOf".

A capacity crowd bedecked with "Go Big Red" buttons rise to pandemonium at the first heroic touchdown and the Pom-Pom girls' spring board goes into action.

Alarms are turned off on Sunday morning and the campus does a turn-about to present a deceiving face of composure and serenity. Later texts are begrudging ly opened and an afternoon of "catching-up" ensues. The pressure valve is reinstated and the first of another in famous University weekends comes to a screeching halt.

SDS Drops Center Idea Plans to use the Students for a Democratic Society "Freedom House" as a neigh borhood organizing project in T Street area have fallen through, according to Carl Davidson, former president of SDS. The house, located at 2202 T Street, was purchased by the University chapter of SDS last year In the hopes that it would develop into a com munity center for rehabilita tion of the depressed area. This area of Lincoln Is set tled mainly by members of the economically underpriv ileged groups. Carl Davidson, former pre sident of SDS and now na tional vice president of the group, explained that the or ganization had planned to im port several full-time Negro organizers for the project. Davidson said the concen tration of activity in the South concerning civil rights this summer made it impossible to find the needed organizers to man the Freedom House. Instead, the house will re main as an SDS office and open house. Davidson re marked that It will serve to a limited extent as a neigh borhood gathering place. Lit erature concerning SDS will be available there. Davidson will also be using the house as his permanent office when he returns ap proximately every six weeks from his duties as traveling national vice president for the movement.
