University BY MICKEY TRIMARCHI Of The Gamecock staff The University Union is in the process- of restructuring its con stitution and does not appear to be in violation of the group's charter, according to the acting head of the USC chartering commission. "Due to the circumstances surrounding the union's working with one vice president, we (the commission) don't see it as a violation of their charter," Car nell- Foskey, chartering com mission acting chairman, said Saturday. The fact that the Union's charter calls for two vice presidents and only one, Harriet Ferguson, has been appointed, has caused dissention within the Union and several members have questioned the legality of the move. The new constitution calls for only one vice-president instead of two. There will also be a shifting of some of the presidential powers to the other Union officers. At a recent Union meeting, Alan McGill, chairman of Trips and Expeditions, moved there be only one vice-president until the time the new constitution and by-laws are ratified. "When Terry Dugas resigned as vice-president, we decided not to elect someone to fill his place," Frank Siano, president at the University Union.

QL Union ph decided to stay with one vice pesident because it would be useless to take that person out of office, should our constitution be approved by the Executive Council. When Siano took office this past spring, he saw the Constitution as "unfunctional." "First of all," Siano said, "it was poorly set up. The Constitution itself was 11 pages long, with three pages of By Laws. I felt it should have been the other way around. At the moment, You can do it, too.

But then, it defines the qualifications of the officers, vacancies and the removal of officers. These belong in the By-Laws, not in the body of .000 other people have done it.
