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.

The Nebraska Interfrater-
nity Council (IFC) received
the 1967-68 Outstanding IFC
Award for the Western Re
gion at the Western Regional
IFC Conference in Los An
geles April 5-7.
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.
Marine Corps

The Marine Corps Officer
Selection Team will visit the
campus on April 9-11 to dis
cuss officer training pro
grams with students in the
Nebraska Union.

commission upon graduation.

Ann Stanford poetess
turns life into poems
by Phyllis Adkisson
Junior Staff Writer
Childhood "there was
plenty of time ... it was an
eternity 'til Christmas." 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."
