Plan For Constitution Revisioi and 12 Amendments Also to Come Up at Assembly. Shall the president of the student body appoint a committee to revise the constitution in a logical order, such revision to conform to the Jspirit of the constitution, and which shall be voted upon by the student body before being finally published? This question will be presented at the assembly Wednesday and will be *voted upon by the students. Shall the student body take con trol of editing and managing the Ore gana, supervised by the graduate manager and executive council? An amendment to this effect will be presented by Bothwell Avison, chairman of the joint student coun cil and junior class Oregana com mittee. This would be a very desirable change, according to Lamar Tooze. and would force the Oregana to pay for itself. Twelve constitutional amendments, which are reconstructive in nature are to be presented by Chairman Cloyd Dawson, of the amendment committee. The president of the student body shall be a member of the athletic council, the vice-pres ident shall be a member of the stu dent council, there shall be five in stead of three meetings per year, these are some of the provisions. Amendments to the constitution are balloted upon by the student body and require a two-thirds ma jority to make them effective. I COMMUNICATIONS i * - * — NOTICE—This column is reserved for letters from contributors. On account I'i- of lack of space, a smaller type will be 5 used throughout the year. To the Edieor:—Between 700 and S00 1 tickets were sold for the progressive din L ner served by the clubs and dormitories |i Friday night—500 of these, according to Lamar Tooze, president of the Uni versity student body, were bought by the students themselves. This means, at 50 cents a ticket, that perhaps $400 was taken in. The soror | ities are expected to furnish materials costing $5 for the course which they j serve; all the cost over’Hhat, if they fee! they absolutely cannot afford it. will be paid out of the receipts. This means that the student body contributes $300 directly. Indirectly it contributes rental of dishes, incidental expenses and much work in the preparation and serving of the courses. Half a. day is wasted by everyone— unwillingly in most cases—and very much more by all the committees directly in charge. Why couldn’t the students be direct ly taxed for this amount, to be put to wards the erection of the woman’s building? The amount really paid into this fund, after expenses have been de ducted. will not exceed that paid by the students. It would be given much mor< willingly, and a great saving in time and energy would lie effected. Much agitation has been raised at va rious times concerning the useless ex penditure of time and money by the stu dent associations and clubs. It is just such things as the enforced progressive dinner that are the root of the whole trouble. The Oregon spirit has not died; it is not slumbering—it is suffering. ONE WHO Oil) HER PART. Get a Y.
