Panhel holds vote
on sorority ranking
Regent's luncheon
scheduled for Monday
Divided opinions on
publication o f individual
sorority scholastic rankings
resulted in four tabled mo
tions at Thursday's
Panhellenic meeting.
Discussion stemmed from a
motion by Kappa Delta
Sorority to adopt either a) no
rankings be given out; or b)
al1 rankings be given out.
Sherry Sicklebower, K D
president, emphasized the
motion was primarily to pro
mote subject discussion and
would be retracted if the all
Greek group could formulate
FOUR MOTIONS, ranging
from publishing for individual
houses only that houses
average, t h e all-sorority
average, and high-low rank-i
ines to a move that all rank
ings, plus the all-sorority
average, house average, high,
low, and medium be available
to each house, were moved
from the floor.
All but one motion included
recognizing the top two rank
ed houses in scnoiarsnip ai
the Panhellenic Convocation.
The motions were tabled
until next week's meeting,
pending a report from the
Panhellenic Scholarship
Committee and individual
house discussions.
Also under new business, a
motion was advanced from
the floor suggesting support
and contributions from each
sorority towards the all-Greek
choir.
suggested that since the choir
was of all Greek membership
that Panhellenic contribute
the funds.
Final details were explained
for the Regent s Luncheon
s- hedu1 1 for on Monday at
the Nebraska Center fo
Continuing Education.
Panhellenic president
Kathy Kuester emphasized
that the luncheon was the
"means for them to talk to
us and tney are very in
terested" in hearing what we
have to say.
Under old business, the
group aaopted the recom
mendation from Panhellenic
Advisory Board to eliminate
courtesy bids during Rush
Week. The motion was sent
to the Rush Committee for
formulation and advancement
for a vote at a later meeting.
THE MOTION that pledges
be allowed to make their
averages in summer school
and thereby be initiated in
the fall was also tabled until
next week.
Again the motion was tabl
ed utfl next week when an
Inquiry from the floor re
quested a report from the
Panhellenic treasurer. It was
BiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiMiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

I BOX
Mrs. Jayne Anderson,
Panhellenic advisor, said that
Panhellenic does not receive
summer graae transcripts
before Rusk Week and that
National Panhellenic Rules
covering holding any pledge
for more than two semesters
should be reviewed.
Applications are now
available in the Panhellenic
office for those interested in
the job of rush book editor.
The next meeting will be at
3:30 next Thursday afternoon
in the Union.
Body
politic
1 1 . 1 ! 1
wounaea aireauy
by Julie Morris
Senior Staff Writer
A spokesman for the
American Independent Party,
me largest splinter party in
the nation, failed to arrive
Thursday night for a Pi
Sigma Alpha debate on the
effect of splinter political
parties.
Shan Wentzel, president of
the political science honorary,
said a leader of the Nebraska
branch of the party that
backs George Wallace for
President had agreed to at
tend the debate, but he failed
to show up.
THREE University people,
student and two faculty
members, did participate in
the debate billed as "Splinter
Parties, Will They Wound the
Body Politic?"
The body politic "has been
wounded already," New
Party member Steven
Rozman said at the outset.
Rozman, an assistant pro
fessor in political science,
said a basic alienation and
disenchantment in the coun
try is causing disaffection
from the Democratic and
Republican parties.
"The democratic
framework of this country has
always been based on social
injustice and sooner or later
the chickens would have to
come home to roost."
Rozman said.
But Republican Dr. Robert
Sittig, assistant professor of
political science countered,
"minority parties have rare
ly, if ever, in contemporary
times, had an effect on the
outcome of an election."
SITTIG, a member of the
Task Force of tiie Republican
C o o r dinating Committee,
said, "The two party system
will be able to survive the
challenges in a very fine
fashion."
Wallace, Sittig said, "has
had the luxury in the last two
months of speaking without
having anyone answer him."
Sittig said of the Peace and
Freedom Movement, "I can't
really believe it's for real.
Everyone's for peace and
everyone's for freedom."
THE PARTY, he said, "is
using notereity rather than
substance for . their
candidate," referring to toV
party's nomination of El-
dridge Cleaver for President.
elected chairman of the
steering committee of the
Nebraska Peace and
Freedom Movement, replied
"I'm not sure I, myself,
would endorse Cleaver as a
presidential candidate if we
had a chance to be on the
ballot in Nebraska."
Foot said the Peace and
Freedom group is not looking
for any substantial results on
the November ballot (the
movement is backing Ernie
Chambers for the Omaha
School Board), but is more
interested in organizing peo
ple.
Stittig suggested the Peace
and Freedom Movement
should attempt to ally with
more moderate black leaders.

not exempt
from tax
Exemption from the state
sales tax does not apply to
the Omaha based under
ground newspapers now be
ing sold in the Nebraska Un
ion. According to state statute,
newspapers are exempt from
the tax if they are published
at a regular interval, "not
exceeding one week."
The Buffalo Chip and the
Asterisk both are monthly
publications.
Section 2704 of Article 77
of the sales tax statute also
reads that the newspapers
must cater to "general inter
ests and cover current events.
Washington (CPS) The
idea that the federal govern'
ment establish a novel loan
program called the Educa
tional Opportunity Bank is not
dead just dormant until
after the November elections
The plan was recommended
last September by the
President's Panel on Educa
tional Innovation. It calls for
establishment of a fund from
which any student could bor-
row money for his education
with repayment contingent on
future income.
THE IDEA met strong op
position from two powerful
college associations and got
only lukewarm support from
federal officials.
Proponents of the Ed Op
Bank have been bidding their
time, not wanting to spark
partisan debate over the con'
troversial idea, and knowing
that working with the lame
duck Johnson Administration
would be futile.
An avid supporter of the
plan is Dr. Jerrold R
Zacharias, a Massachusetts
Institute of Technology
physicist who headed the now-
defunct presidential panel.
He expects "a lot of support
to come out of the woodwork
after the election is settled,
including some from
Carnegie Commission o n
Higher Education headed by
Clark Kerr.
Dr. Zacharias and other
supporters recognize that the
plan could drastically alter
the present system of financ
ing higher education. "It's a
big change, with unpredic
table repercussions," says
Andrew M. Gleason, another
panel member who teaches
math at Harvard.
BECAUSE OF the signifi
cant implications, Gleason
and Dr. Zacharias would like
to see implemented a pilot
program involving only
meaicai students. Medicine
was chosen because of high
cost tor students, and the high
income after practice i s
started.
The major roadblock to
setting up the experimental
program has been lack of
federal money because of
Vietnam spending, Gleason
said. .
The total Ed Op Bank pro
gram is designed to make it
easier for schools to raise
tuition and to provide money
tor students to attend anv
college for which they qualify.
With students able to borrow
all the money they need, col
leges and universities would
no longer feel obligated to
keep charges low, according
to the plan.
The bank also would help
increase the number of
students from low-income
families, the proponents say.
ine most vocal opposition
to the plan has come from
the National Association of
State Universities and Land
Grant Colleges and the
Association of State Colleges
and Universities. Their ioint
statement called the panel
recommendation ' a Pan
dora's Box of ill-considered,
obsolete, and contradictory
ideas. . ."
Dr. Edgar F. Shannon Jr.,
chairman of NASULGC's ex
ecutive committee and
University of Virginia presi
dent, said, Our fundamental
concern is that this proposal
would shift the responsibility
of financing higher education
to the student. Education is
essential for society's own
self-interest and should be the
responsibility of society."
head of the National Associa
tion for the Advancement of
Colored People," he said.
FOOT ANSWERED that the
Nebraska Peace group has
"organized the poor whites in
south Omaha and the blacks
in north Omaha."
Foot added that before the
formal organizing convention
of the New Party, "there
were several smoke-filled-
room meetings" in which the
New Party organizers asked
the Peace and Freedom peo
ple to join them.
But the New Party would
not agree to some Peace and
Freedom conditions, Foot
said, so no alliance was
made.
Rozman, too, noted the im
portance of the Wallace
challenge and said "it is good
from a democratic standpoint
that Wallace has been able
to get on almost all of the
states' ballots."
THE WALLACE achieve
ment, he said, shows the
possibilities of splinter
movements.
"Unfortunately, the right is
a lot stronger than the left
and a lot better organized,"
for this election, Rozman ad
ded. He said he thought the basic
difference between the Ne'
Party and the Peace an l
Freedom Movement is that
"we are perhaps more likely
to be co-opted by the
Democratic.party."
