Spring 1965 Blood Drive To Be Held The I nt ra- Fraternity Council spionsore'i Blood Drive will be held in the Russell House Assembly Riiim on A pril 7-8 from 1.7 p.m. Last semester USC students gave a record amount of over 250 pints of blood. All students do i.ating will receive full blood credit for themselves and their family for the period of one year.

Spring i Josh White will lead off Carolina's Spring Weekend for 1965 with a concert tonight at 8 p.m. at Township Audi torium, to be followed tomor row night by a James Brown dance. D)ate ticketsr are 82.50 per oen nd nar good~ for bot oycott Nlonth I BROWN e Editor he Campus Shop was passed Student Senate. Ison presiding, Vice-President that Senate suspend with its rtant business. Brown then introduced the reso lution calling for the Student Body to boycott the Campus Shop beginning April 5 and continuing until May 5. Senator Boo Mullis said that the above-mentioned bill is "a good chance for Student Senate to show how effective it can be and that we are powerful on this campus." Use Every Dollar Spent The policy of the Campus shop is to price merchandise so as to yield a large profit which is do nated to the athletic program. Ac cording to Student Senate the policy should be to offer educa tional services, facilities, and ef 1icient utilization of every dollar spent by the student. The present policy produces a condition in which prices are as high as or higher than those of competing private establishments. The Campus Shop also refused return on new but unu.ed text hooks. It has, said the Senate, limited and inadequate books and reading supplies and no system of purchase and sale of used texts. These conditions force students to buy materials at other sources. The greater part of students funds spent on books and supplies are not at the Campus Shop. Therefore, the incurred profits are a total loss to the student and to the University and its programs. An amendment was also passed to have each Senator's name on the resolution. Copies of the resolution are to be sent to Governor Russell, The State Budget and Control Board, the Board of Trustees, the House Ways and Means Committee, the Senate Finance Committee. the Education Committees of the House and S e n a t e , President Jones, Dean Brunton, The Game rock, WUSC, and local news me dia. Student Union Autonomy Urged In other business Senator Jim Willis explained the amendments to the USC Constitution which will be voted on in Monday's elec tion. Willis said, "At present the Student Union is a committee with no rules, regulations, by inws or constitution." Willis con tinued, "The new constitution is needed so the Student Union will continue to exist on a permanent basis." In reply to President Chip Cothran's statement t h a t he t hought the Student Union should be under Student Senate, Willis said, "If Student Senate did its job, it would not have time for anything else. As it now stands the Senate cannot even meet to conduct its own business much less run the Student Union too." W'eekend nights. Date tickets for the Josh White concert are $1 and for the dance, $1.50. Stag tic kets for both events are $2. Student identification cards will be checked at the door. No seats will be reserved, and the Student Union will not give refunds '.. eange. kta.
