SATURDAY'S USC.WAKE FOREST INSIDE BASKETIBALL. GAM~E wt5 wi be televised locally on Channel 10 at 1:45 P.M. UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH CAROLINA CROWING FOR A GREATER CAROLINA VOL LVI, NO. 14 COLUMBIA, SOUTH CAROLINA, FEBRUARY 11, 1966 FO'N Student-Ad Relations H By RICHARD MORRELL Staff Writer The Student Senate in its regu lar meeting Wednesday held a lengthy discussion on the prob lems of student-administration faculty relations. The discussion centered around the difficulty in finding out what happens to bills passed by the Senate when they g reach the administration. Alpha Order To Welcome Honor Guest Mrs. Edward Q. Moulton, na tional treasurer of Mortar Board, will visit the Carolina campus Thursday and Friday of next week in response to a petition made by Alpha Order regarding the estab lishment of a chapter of Mortar Board at USC. Mortar Board is a nationally af filiated organization for women student leaders. Miss Jacqueline Sterner, national secretary of Nor tar Board, visited the University in January of last year. Besides several sessions with Al pha Order and its advisors, during her visit Mrs. Moulton will meet with University President Thomas F. Jones, Dean of Women Eliza beth M. Clotworthy, Dean Amy E. Viglione of the School of Nursing, and Dr. Velma D. Hayden of the School of Education. Alpha Order, headed by Joan Bennett, is the highest women's honorary society at Carolina. Membership is limited to senior girls having made outstanding contributions to the Carolina Com munity and who meet certain standards of character, leadership, service, and scholarship. 74 Students Ea Under Minimu Seventy-four USC s t u d e n t s achieved a perfect GPR of 4.0 for the fall semester. The following Upparclass Coeds' Privileges Extended All sophomore, junior and sen ior coeds may now sign out on white engagement cards, regard less of their GPR. All freshmen girls with a 3.0 GP~R have also been placed on white cardls and later, all fresh man girls not on academic proba tion will receive the privilege. An additional rule passed by the committee states that dorm residents planning an overnight stay in Columbia, must have their hostess contact the housemother regarding their plans before leav ing campus. Columbia girls living on campus are not effected. The move came after last week's Women's Standards Committee meeting, Food Prices In Campus Food prices in all University cafe'terias will increase effective June 1, 1966, according to Dean of Administration Harold Brunton. The rise in prices which was to go into effect at the beginning of this semester, however, has been rescinded. Brunton indlicatedI that stud(ent protest was at least par Stially responsible for delaying the price increase. "When the students came to us they indicated that they felt we were obligatedl not to raise prices without notification. We agreed, not from a legal or financial as pect, but from an emotional as p)ect," Brunton said. The rising cost of food was cited as the reason for the price in ministration it In Senate The debate was triggered by Sen. Jim Mulligan, who com mented, "It has come to my atten tion that one of the constitutional amendments passed by the stu dents in last spring's elections has not been brought before the fac ulty for approval." The amend ment referred to by Sen. Mulligan required the faculty to act on bills passed by the Senate within two weeks and to report their action to the Senate. "It seems," said Sen. Mulligan, "that some correspondence gets lost on people's desks." The re sons have not been formally re ported back to the Senate." Vice-President Thorne Compton explained the procedure a bill fol lows after being passed by the Senate. "The secretary sends the bills to Dean Witten's office," Compton stated. "Then I go over to Dean Witten's office and discuss the bills with him. At this time we get reports from the Dean on some of the bills. Other bills are sent from his office to the appropriate authority, and sometimes never get back. Often, no one knows what happens to them." Senator Stan Applebaum noted that the amendment passed in last year's elections had been found to be in direct conflict with other sec tions of the Constitution, and that this might be one reason why the amendment had not been brought before the faculty. The discussion ended with a call by Vice-President Thorne Comp ton for all Senators to do what ever possible to improve relations between students and faculty, and to seek better methods for follow ing up bills passed by the Senate. Prior to the discussion the Sen ate received a preliminary report 'rom the Cafeteria Committee by "enator Bill McDougall. The com )lete report is to be presented at the next Senate meeting. rn Straight A's n Course Rules students achieved an "A" average for 12 semester hours or more in Arts and Sciences: Celia Adair. %tark Archer, Ivy Carson, John Carson.

To Rise Cafeteria cafeteria-like housing and the infirmary-to operate on a break even basis, Brunton reported. lie said that the cafeterias would, at best, break even and would prob ably incur a dieficit this year. "We are always conscious that peo'ple are not completely happy with the food, hut we try our best to cope with the situation," he noted(. Dean Brunton explained that continuing surveys show Univer sity cafeterias serve comparable food at lower or equal prices to those of other commercial food services in Columbia. The cafe terias grossed over $1 million last year, andl this volume along with efficient operation enables USC cafeterias to serve food at lower D rices. THE NEW CHRISTY MINSTI concert." Adnission will he by one formal as seating will be both in d] All girls on Green Cards wiHlI Primary Aim Cited As Assi An administration effort to "try to keep the freshman close to his books" is the main reason for the required Slater Food Plan for on campus freshmen. In a Tuesday night meeting with six freshman Senators, Dean of Administration Harold F. Brunton outlined the main purposes of the compulsory arrangement. According to Brunton, the en forced food plan is part of an overall program designed to regu late the life of the freshman dur ing the "difficult" first year in college. By scheduling definite times for meals and providing a varied selection of foods from which to choose, the officials hope to guide incoming students toward a pattern of existence most con ducive to good study habits. The Dean cited the "generally poor" eating habits of most col lege students in saying that the Jeter Announces Feb. 15 Deadline For Scholarships Students wishing to file for 1966-67 scholarships at the Uni versity have only four days in which to do so. February 15 has been set as the final day for filing these applica tions, according to Robert [B. Jeter, director of student aid. Continuing students wishing to apply for scholarsh ips must sub nit a 'ontinu ing studlent's parents' con1)fidentiail statement. Married studenft.s must comp llete an addi tional supplement. Applicants need not specify any amount of aid,. in that they will be considleredl for all scholarships for which they are eligible.
