Beer S
BY CARL STEPP
Ast. 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."
Witten said the administration,

si,tuation, would a 1 s o investigate

"America and NATO are not
avoiding the question in Czecho
slovakia," a U. S. ambassador said
here last week. "We have sent dip

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.

"This is the only way we can

McGhee said neither NATO nor

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

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
