THE BRANDYM USC Concei Group Of F The five-member folk singing a group, The Brandywine Singers, will present a concert at 8:30 p.m., A p r il 9 at Columbia Township Auditorium for USC students, faculty and staff. The event is sponsored by the t R u s s e l I House - Student Union; a however, it has not been under- I written by student activities allo- ( cations, so it is necessary to charge $1 per p e r a o n. Student identification e a r d a will also be needed for admittance. Tickets will be on sale Monday through April 9 at the Russell t House .information desk from 9 i Administ Publicai USC administration officials an nounced on Friday, March 13, that a new student publications board has been formed. In essence, the plan preserves the present student publications board organization of four stu dents and three faculty or staff members, but provides that the new "Board of Student Publica tions and Communications shall have authority to take effective action in the event that any of the media flagrantly violate ac cepted standards of journalistic in tegrity and good taste." The pres ent board has no such authority. The media that will fall undert thejuiditio of this new "Board of Publications" are the following: The Gamecock, The Crucible, the Garnet and Black, andi radio sta tion WUSC-AM. The committee came into be ing in response to the battle that r raged between the Student Sen ate and the literary societies. Bloth groups claimed to have the power to control The Gamecock'. The basis for the Senate's claim is that it represents the student body. The literary societies based their claim on the fact that it was they who founded The Gamecock.( Although both groups drew up proposed constitutions, neither was thought to be acceptable. The con stitution proposed by the Student Senate gave virtual control to the student body president. However, the constitution that was drawn up b)y the literary societies gave e o n t r o I to a non-representative group. For sonme time a few adminis trative officials have felt that the news media should be subject to the control of a board empowered to exercise co nsaul1t a tivye and authoritative p o w e r, with full recognition of the undesirability of exercising unnecessary censorship. The problem was then turned over to a committee of persons not af filiated with the University in any way. & ev4 io Of the tho _hq Fo an ar IINE SINGERS p0 uli tFeaturesin olk Singers D po im. to 9 p.m. They will not be ap old at the door. an Having just completed a tour g vith the Johnny Mathis Show, the by trandywine Singers have also ap wared on the ABC Hootenanny. )uring the past winter and fall, hey performed at the Dartmouth Vinter Carnival, Wellesly College, 1arvard, Yale and Squaw Valley, w 'alif.
