warn Pagtf 4 The Daily Nebraskan Wednesday, April 10, 1968 Dorm residents to make decision own- on executive salary, amendments 23ie executive salary issue wiH be decided by residents of all University dormitories except Schramm Hall voting on 17 amendments to the In ter - Dormitory Association (IDA) constitution Wednes day. Reesa Almy, chairman of the IDA constitutional con vention committee which pro posed the amendments, said balloting would De conaucjea following usual procedures from 9 a.m. until 6 p.m. She said she felt all amend ments, which were accepted by the IDA Council in mid March, would be approved by voters. Good turnout expected "I don't think the turnout will be too great because of the other elections Wednes day, but there will be a good turnout," she predicted in noting the ASUN election and Choice '68 mock presidential ballot would also be held Wednesday. Residents will vote collec tively for 16 amendments and will decide separately the fate of an amendment pro viding salaries for two IDA executive offices. ." The amendment, which would be added as section five of the finances section. states that the IDA president shall be paid at least $500 for the entire year and the vice president be paid at least $200 for the entire year. The allocation to each dormitory must contain at least this minimum amount. Salary amendment proposed Miss Almy has said earlier the executive salary amend ment was proposed since the dormitory student assistant selection process drains IDA of many capable leaders. Student assistants current ly receive full room and board in dormitories amount ing to $800 per academic year, while present IDA executive officers receive no financial renumeration for their work. The executive salary amendment and the 16 other amendments must be ratified by at least 30 per cent of As sociation members voting in the election or by an affirma tive vote of 15 per cent of As sociation members when less than 30 per cent of the Asso ciation membership votes, according to the IDA consti tution. Half of the 16 proposals re volve around duties, eligibil ity requirements and election dates for IDA executive of ficers. One amendment would low er the dormitory residence re quirement for all executive officers to at least one full academic semester from the current one year require ment. This would not apply to the president, who must have sophomore standing. Another change would switch the date of the IDA presidential and vice presi dential elections from the third week of second semes ter to an undetermined spring date. Another amendment would provide one year terms for both the secretary and treas urer, while another would re quire two-thirds council ap' proval for a vice presidential appointee to replace a vice president who was unable to fulfill his duties. Under the constitution's or ganizational structure, a new amendment, giving the pres ident a voting privilege in case of tie votes is proposed along with an amendment re scinding the 2.5 grade point average requirement for jus tices on the Inter-Dormitory Court. Also on the ballot is a meth od of revoking membership clause which would be in qluded in the membership section of the constitution. It states that a two-thirds majority of at least 30 per cent of the eligible residents voting or 20 per cent of t h e eligible residents when less than 30 per cent of the eligi ble voters vote is needed for a dormitory to revoke IDA membership.

Vice President Bob Bartee and Secretary Dave Buntain represented t h e Nebraska IFC at the conference which was attended by students from 42 schools representing 13 states. Buntain said the criteria for the award are service to the member fraternities, to t h e campus and to the community. The awards committee was particularly interested in the new programs initiated by tne Nebraska IFC such as the Report on Deferred Rush, which has been adopted as a model by other IFCs in de aiding whether or not to de velop a deferred rush pro. gram, according to Buntain. Other innovations formulat ed were the change to a par tial "wildcat" pledging sys tem and a foreign student program. "The foreign student pro gram is just getting under way," Buntain said. "I hope some fraternities will soon have foreign students living in their house." The members of the con ference were also impressed by the Nebraska IFC Com mittee Report on Pledge Training written under the chairmanship of Darryl Gless and by the Pledge Instruc tion Seminar planned for Ap ril 30-31, 1968. Nebraska IFC President Sid Logemann commented that the IFC Executive Com mittee is continuing its re search on the pledging train ing contract, based on such a program used by the Greek system at Indiana Universi ty. The Rush book is progress ing smoothly under the edi torship of Dick Holman, Loge man said.

Ex perience transformed into poetry is Ann Stanford's tal ent. Two dozen people were drawn into her world Tues day afternoon as she de scribed a horse she once owned, committee meetings, her reactions to a brutal beat ing reported in newspapers, television, and other events. Sponsored by the English Department, Miss Stanford was in Nebraska on her way to the Guggenheim Museum in New York for a session of the Academy of American Poets. Metaphors pulled the listen er into the reality of the "Sleeping Princess." "I spent the seasons prodigal as the snow," Miss Stanford read. But "someone called and touched my cheek, the spend thrift years were done. Was it a kiss? I woke and I was old." With a warm smile she re called having spent some time at a place for writers in New York. It was very eerie she said, and everyone knew it was haunted. She told of one night that particularly fright ened her and led her to con sequently write a poem about it. . . "not that night," she confessed, "but in the day time." Laughing, the audience lis tened as she described "The Committee." "Once in a while someone says something, but the answer is always the same." Grinning pause. "The question is too. Whatever they did, it must be done all over again." She delighted the listeners with phrases like, "the great round promises of green morning." in her poem "Weeds," and feelings in "A Birthday," ". . . at my cen ter is a pool clam, dark. I have not found its edges." "The Beating" was the re sult of hearing about a wom an who was attacked and left in her driveway to be found by neighbors. ". . . My eyes burst close, something fell over me . . . the bed is too soft to hold my breath. They only ask the thing I turn in side the black ball of my mind the one white thought."
