Eleven members of Alien University's Beta Rho chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi and two pledges are seeking colony status at USC. All 13 are USC students. "I'm in favor of it," said Inter Fraternity Council (IFC) President Burt Rosen. "I see no real problem arising from their seeking to become a colony. "A colony is not a fraternity. It's a trial to prove that they are capable of being a fraternity." The brothers are seeking a recommendation for a campus charter today from the Student Affairs Committee. They are seeking it as the Kappa Interest Club The next step is acceptance as a colony from the fraternity's national office. After that, they must be approved as a colony by at least a two-thirds vote of the IFC council. In keeping with Kappa Alpha Psi's goal of achievement, a spokesman said, the USC mem bers have started a service project in Cayce.

Burt Rosen, asked by Dean Cooper to speak for the committee, said if the Senate,makes any new proposals in light of the decision the committee would be glad to private meet and consider them. He commented that the com mittee had considered many factors before making the decision. He added it was realized that the University had made five coolers in year rental contracts for refrigerators as a service to the students amounting to a financial committment of more than $90,000. According to Rosen, the University had not expected to make a profit on the refrigerators rtust go and that any profit would have been turned over to the residence hall government.. In October the University had contracted to get 1200 refrigerators, but only 835 were rented by students. Freshman Senator Tom Ingram of Mens Towers who attended the committee meeting Thursday remarked that the Senate com mittee would probably write a new bill in light of the decision of the Refrigerator Committee.

Law students launched a vigorous campaign to push a new law school. Thirteen faculty members arranged for a special faculty meeting to discuss University expansion and the athletic program. And a spokesman for Gov. Robert E. McNair said the governor would "probably op pose" the present University plan "because it doesn't fall into line with his priorities list." In the administration. Dr. William H. Patterson, University provost, suggested priorities might be rearranged if state funds were forthcoming, and Harold Brunton, vice president for business affairs, stressed "the particular sequence of priorities. i not nearly as im portant as the fact that all the items requested are of a top, must priority." At issue was a $112 million growth plan formally begun Monday. The five-year plan calls for $97 million in state funds, with 10 items requested for the 1970-71 vear. First priority was shared by a new library and enlarged stadium. Next, in order, came new schools of nursing, law and business ad ministration, an administration building, two dormitories and a parking garage. Law students were the first to object. Led by the Student Bar Students stadium z BY ALICE PARSONS Staff Writer The Student Bar Association (SBA) wants to know why the expansion of Carolina Stadium has been given a higher priority than the building of a new law school. In a resolution Wednesday night, the Association protested the recent switch in building priorities b.v the administration and the board of truestees. A proposal was made to meet with University President Thomas F. Jones Monday to discuss the priority switch and a letter is to be sent to Governor Robert E. Mc Nair asking for a thorough in vestigation of the matter. According to the resolution, the Student Bar Association asks that it teeth lent' sections of the constitution. They are: Executive committee - Jim Bradford (chairman), Fred Monk, Pat Watson, Brenda Hallbrooks and Eric Wyka. Legislative committee - Mike Spears (chairman), Jim Corley, Brian Rines, Lindy Wood and Carol Alexander. ,Judicial committee -- Peggy Harley (chairman), Duncan Williams, Jack Brawley, Bill Smith and Pat Litchy. Elections committee - Jean Neal (chairman), Bob Chapman, Ann Clamp, Steve Cannon and Pete Reed. 'nor, 0 Sprioi Association, they undertook a drive to move the new law school higher than fourth priority. Meanwhile, in a reaction against number one ranking for the stadium. 13 professors petitioned Dr. John Welsh, secretary of the faculty, for a special faculty meeting. Under faculty rules, a special meeting must be called within seven days after a petition of 10 voting .members. "We could have had more signatures, but we didn't need them." one professor said. Welsh said a special faculty meeting has been tentatively set for Wednesday afternoon. It will probably follow an agenda proposed by the petitioners, he added.That agenda includes disc'ission of faculty control over athletics. the place of in tercollegiate athletics in the University program. "the position of the athletic director" and "the necessity for a new stadium." It also expressed concern about the University's priorities. Noting that the two top priorities 'the new library and expanded stadium) were fixed by the board of trustees. Provost Patterson, Carolina's number two ad ministrator. emphasized that the University doesn't have any funds vet "I suggest we wait and see what we get and go from there," he advised. He said the priorities might be reconsidered when the total of available funds is known. Patterson had no comment about why the enlarged stadium. at one time ranked low on the list, was listed first in the most recent plan. Brunton. top business official in the administration, said the "current interest" shown by students and faculty members asserted Carolina's needs "more protest )iority "the state and its officials reconsider the real needs of the state and place academics and athletics in their proper per spectives." SHA stated Wednesday night that they were "gravely concerned about the dire needs of the 1niversity and its primary ac tivities --academic - not only for the law school. but also for the school of nursing or the library and other academic facilities" Ondin Anita Stonecipher as Ondine played by Robert Moorman, production of Jean Giraudi running tonight and tomorn Curtain tie is 6:. ,roups rities than anything we could possibly do." Outside the immediate University, the program drew fire from Gov. McNair. through his press secretary Wayne Seal. Seal told The Gamecock, the governor is concerned about the shifting of priorities in recent months. "The fact that there's announced opposition to this set of priorities leads him (the governor) to believe there could be a shift again . . lie would like their position solidified." Seal said the governor probably would oppose the present priorities, which place a stadium first. "There are too many other things required in this state than the stadium. We can get along without that: we can't ..get along for too long without a new library and some of these other things," Seal said. Both President Thomas F. Jones and Athletic Director Paul F. Dietzel were out of town and unavailable for comment.
