simply music - timeless,
anonymous, living music."

York Philharmonic Orchestra.

Accrdngto a telegram
reevdlast night by Dr. Thomas
.Jones, USC president, from
Rep. William Jennings Bryan
D)orn. Dl-S. C.. it is likely that the
GI training allowance will increase
f or a single person to $175 a month.
In the telegram to Jones, D)orn
said that a House and Senate
Conferee Committee on Veteran
Affairs sent recommendations
back to both houses to increase the
GI benefits.
TIhe increase would go like this:
$175 for a veteran with no
dependents. $205 for a veteran with
one dependent, $230 for a veteran
with two dependents, and an ad
ditional $13 for each additional
dependent.
According to Dorn there is a very
good chance that the recom
mendations will be approved by
Congress. However, the final bill
approving these recommendations
may receive some opposition from
President Richard M. Nixon.
Dorn is the vice chairman of the
conferee committee.
The recommendations now go to
each house for consideration
bfore a formal bill is drawn up.
Nixon has said in the past that he
fetany increase over $145 a month
for a veteran with no dependents
oanld be inflationary.

Board to c
d .r .
orm visit
By SCOTT DERKS
Staff Writer
The building and Grounds Committee of the Board 01
Trustees are expected to take up the Senate proposal for
extended open visitation hours. The bill, passed in early
February, has been refered to several committees since
its passage and could go from the Committee to the Boarc
of Trustees meeting on March 25.
The proposal calls for visitation from 3-12 p.m. or
Friday, Saturday and Sunday, but allows each dorm to sei
the exact times.
The Men's towers overwhelmingly passed a referedum
to have open house 871 votes in favor to 33 votes against,
with 62 per-cent of the men voting. The men favored ar
extention of the visition time past 6 p.m. by a 10-1 margin.
"I feel a compromise measure will be passed through the
Board of Trustees," Ed McFadden, president of the
Towers said,"but I don't think hours will be extended until
12 p.m.'"
The men of the Horseshoe had 80 per-cent participatior
on a petition circulated in favor of extending open houre
until 12 p.m. in their dorms. Both proposals were given tc
Jerry Nix, in the office of the Dean of Men.
He is reported to have said that he would be very sur
prised if the hours were extended past 9 p.m. by the Boar<
of Trustees.
