By DON BABB Staff Writer The Student Senate defeated Wednesday a bill to censure The Gamecock. The bill, sponsored by the Registration and Distribution Committee, charged 'The Gamecock with acting "in an inaccurate manner and slurring the ideals of Student Govern ment." The bill further charged that The Gamecock "made accusations about some unknown student government official in a most serious manner." It was contended that the accusations were made in the Feb. 16 and 18 issues of the paper. INVESTIGATION PROPOSED The bill proposed that a previous bill, asking for investigation of The Gamecock be recalled and that the newspaper be censured for "printing ridiculous so-called news items." Two sections of the bill calling for the Board of Publications to review The Gamecock and report board meetings to the Senate were stricken by the amendment in troduced by Sen. Robert Elliot. In the debate which followed one bill's introduction, Sen. Chip Galloway, chairman of the Registration and Distribution Committee, said that the stories appearing in The Gamecock Monday and Wednesday were based on rumors and that the papeq.hRd ated-irrespon*ibly. NOCOMMENT When asked if there was any nald ~ns board tement te di: )pape truth to the rumor that the Registration and Distribution Committee had discussed recalling an SGA Official, as reported in The Gamecock, Galloway answered, "no comment." Several senators pursued the question but Galloway refused to answer. Sen. Jean Neal said that Galloway's refusal to discuss the question was germane to the issue of censuring The Gamecock. She said the fact that the story ap peared in print was indication that it was not "ridiculous" and that it had some basis. SENTIMENTS APPLAUDED Sen. Tyler Combs echoed Sen. Neal's sentiments and drew ap plause from the Senate floor. Combs said, "We're going to censure The Gamecock for saying something. They just might be right. And if they are right, we're going to look like a bunch of asses - excuse my language." On the final vote, the bill was defeated by a large margin. Ten senators voted for the bill, 21 voted against and four abstained. The Senate then considered the bills on call of the calendar. After the meeting, Galloway McDonalI4 18 year-o By HARRY HOPE Chief of Reporters Rep. Heyward McDonald, candidate for the Democratic nomination to the second district congressional seat, addressed the Young Democrats here last night. McDonald expounded his views on the issues. "I am running for an office, not against an individual," he stated. "I think the best government is the one which is closest to the people." He stated that in foreign policy the United States should do its "best to communicate with all nations." "I believe that we should effect cooperation with other nations to achieve achievements in space." McDonald stated that he sup ports the withdrawal of troops from Vietnam, yet is not in favor of a specific timetable. On the question of dissent, he said that "the precious right to dissent should be preserved," and agreed with a member that all anti-war groups should not be labeled "communist" or "sub versive." Heas saiid that he supports "freez&m of choice" in public schools, adding that he is againot bussing and would like to see the quality of education in black schools upgraded. He also voiced his support of voting rights for the 18-year-olds, stating that 18, 19 and 20 year olds are "infinitely better informed." He also advocated use of federal programs to solve pollution and Lemon and Lyme 3CUlSS, r ceii explained why the bill of recall on the member of the Student Government cabinet was not brought out, "We couldn't bring the bill out today. We didn't have enough evidence to hang anybody." Later he said that the move to censure "was not intended to criticize the Gamecock." He said that it was introduced in place of the original bill of recall because the cabinet member could not have gotten a fair hearing before the Senate, "They were ready to crucify him." Galloway said that he then substituted the motion to censure the paper. "I have a wierd sense of justice," he said. HOUSING BILL PASSED A bill presented by Sen. Jim Pittman and passed by the Senate calls for a change in the University housing policy. The bill would give freshmen and sophomores who are of age or who have parental con sent the right to live off campus at their discretion. The Senate also passed a bill offered by Sen. Jim Leppard re establishing the "speak out" program. The bill designates the 1 favors Id voting crime problems, as well as to aid individual cities in solving local problems. 'It would be foolhardy to predict the issues in the November elections" he said, "but it would probably be the school situation and the high cost of living." McDonald concluded by saying that he seeks the support of the Young Democrats and welcomes their suggestions. To Wheeler Hill k Bates isDiar By HARRY HOPEi Chief of Reporters Children living in the Wheeler Hill neighborhood find Bates House a veritable Disneyland of elevators, Pepsi machines, color TV, indoor plumbing and op portunities to make money by delivering newspapers. And on any Saturday morning, they wait on wooden benches for the shuttlebus which takes them to art classes at Sloan College. Tomorrow morning, they will board the bus to attend Ringling Bros. Barnum and Bailey Circus in th~e Carolina Coliseum. Riley Hollingsworth, resident director of Bates House. said the necessary arrangements were made with owners of the circus to es isure President-Pro-Temp. of the Senate as the program director. He is to be paid $50 for his services. A resolution from the Academic Affairs Committee was passed with only one dissenting vote. The resolution criticizes the proposals of S. C. Rep. William Cooper that out-of-state students be restricted in number and that their tuition be increased. FRIEDMAN CRITICIZED In other business, the Senate heard a report submitted by Treasurer Sid Friedman on past and present expenditures. Friedman was criticized by Sen. Brian Rines for not giving a more detailed report of the ex penditures. Friedman said that President Knobel would give a more thorough report of ex penditures in the spring. The Senate was also submitted with and confirmed the new ap pointments to the Constitutional Convention Committee. The new members are Cathy Hines, Julliane Lewis, Bob King and Jim Leppard. Ellen Corley is now serving as the Committee's Secretary. The new appointments were made to till vacancies created by members of the com mittee dropped for excessive absences.

"I just saw the circus last year," Hollingsworth stated, "and I thought it was cool. I think there ought to be a law that every kid should get to see the circus." The Wheeler Hill kids will, thanks to the Special Projects Committee of Bates House. an organization set up to promote good relations with residents of the community in which the dorm is located. Last semester, children's art classes were held each Saturday morning by members of the Art Department. The committee appropriated enough money to send a number of neighborhood children to the class. Rick Baty, Ronnie Johnson and Thad Burak conducted the operations. "Sometimes we'd take them on a walk." states Baty. "We would go to South Carolina Library and one time we went to the top of Cap stone." "We just wanted them to see what was around them." he added. Baty said that there was no trouble among the children in that class. "All the children would play and work together, because kids that age don't think anything about color," he said, adding that e white mother had withdrawn her child from the class since the Wheeler Hill children entered. "That was real bad for the child," he commented. According to Baty, the Metropolitan Education Fous~ dation Is nw financing the pr*io, which has prw and Incindes a Baty states that "que
