The council, however, did not close the door to further nego tiations. It recommended by a 16-3 vote that IFC president Stanley Wengert, who presented the pro posal, suggest to the IFC execu tive committee that Panhel re tain its present unpaid co-chair manship. The agreement also calls for three fourths of the profits to go to IFC and one fourth to Panhel in proportion to the amount of money contributed by fraternities and sororities. IFC VP Chairman If the profits of the dance are sufficient, the proposal states, the dance chairman shall be compen sated along with the other com mittee members. According to the new proposal, the IFC vice-president would be chairman of the dance and would be assisted by a member of Pan hel and two other IFC repre sentatives. Wengert said he will take the Panhel recommendations to the IFC executive committee for re consideration.

Last year, he said, the Panhel representative was not paid. He also said that under last year’s agreement two IFC officers were paid from the profits of the dance. Under this agreement, he said, these officers would be paid from IFC’s share of the profits.
