Managing Editor Carolina students .this weekend were taking a "wait-and-see-what the-administration-d o e s attitude concerning a proposal for b e e r sales on campus. Meanwhile, t h e administration was reportedly giving the proposal "very careful study." "The general reaction a m o n g students has been: 'It's a great idea, but will the administration go for it?'" said Fred Magner, who introduced the bill to Student Senate. The p r o p o s a l, unanimously passed by Senate last Wednesday, calls for a 30-day experimental period for beer sales at the Student Union's Golden Spur Night Club. Students with ID cards could purchase beer but could not take it away from the Russell House area. The measure was signed Wednes clay by Student Body President Tom Salane, who forwarded it to Charles H. Witten, vice president for student affairs. "The bill will be looked at very carefully," Witten said. "We will investigate all aspects of the prob lem-it's not something that's go ing to be (lone right away."

Said On Czech BY RON MILES Staff Writer "America and NATO are not avoiding the question in Czecho slovakia," a U. S. ambassador said here last week. "We have sent dip lomats in order to secure the ulti mate in Russian-Czechoslovakian relations." George C. McGhee, ambassador at large and former ambassador to Germany, also said that without Germany's aid, America can never reach its fullest potential. As evidence of Germany's aid to the United States, McGhee cited Germany's purchase of $200 mil lion of American currency to help stabilize the dollar.

Enroll To Re BY SUSAN ROSS Staff Writer Despite a decrease in certain areas, University enrollment has risen 5.1 percent over last fall. USC officials place enrollment at a record 14,314 students, includ ing the 11,932 on the main campus in Columbia. The remaining 2,382 are enrolled at the school's regional campuses. M. D. Tavenner, director of in stitutional research, said he was pleased with the 12.7 percent in crease in Graduate School enroll ment, since most graduate schools I 'Mexicana To Perfor Acts ranging from rope-twirling to the Mexican Hat Dance will be featured Friday night when the Student Union Artist Series pre id-See' bar implementation of the pro posal. Salane promised the full weight of Student Government would be used to seek approval of the plan. "This seems to be one thing the students really want," he s a i d, "and we'll try to get it for them." Salane said he felt the proposal is reasonable since students car. now obtain beer from places near the campus and since beer sales in the Russell House would be con trolled. Witten reported he knew of little reaction to the proposal, but Sa lane said "dozens of students" had expressed approval of the proposal to him. Salane was reluctant, however, to predict passage or denial of the request by the administration. Magner, on the other hand, ex pressed doubts that the proposal would be looked upon favorably. "I think the administration's pol icy in this issue will be similar to the policy used on other issues," he said. "The tack that will be used will be one of procrastination. "The administrators will play with the idea until they think stu (lent apathy has set in, then finally release the denial-long-awaited by those who are d.eeply interested." Magner saidl he hoped the adl ministration would not set the issue asidle, however. No one appeared quite sure about the p)ath the bill would have to take to approval. Final approval, some s o u r c e a feel, will have to come from the Board of Trustees, who meet next Saturday.

Tavenner explained that iis group of students h a s the ime profile as that of the four ear program, and therefore is not itirely made up of Columbia area !sidents, as is sometimes be eved. The University does not have ifficient housing for the women i associate degree programs. The ousing problem for those residing ut of Columbia helps account for drop in the two-year nursing rogram from the 1967 enrollment F 518 to the present enrollment r 423. Enrollment in all associate de ree programs dropped from last ill's 656 to 575. A drop has also been recorded k the total enrollment of fresh ien from last year's 3,811 to this ill's 3,761.
