Stoddard Outlines Desirable Points for New Constitution
School for Yell-Leaders.,
Supreme Court Are Needed
Student Body President Hopes To
Submit Remodelled Draft for
Vote Sometime in April
CREATION of a yell-leaders’ school, a “supreme court” on the cam
pus to make final decisions on student matters, and individual
constitutions for each class are among- the outstanding recommenda
tions which Tom Stoddard, student body president, hopes to see in
the new constitution now being drawn up by a student commission.
The finai*araft will be submitted for student approval at an elec
tion about the second week in
April, two weeks prior to the gen
eral student body polls.
‘‘A constitution should be a mere
statement of fact,” he said. He
believes that the sections in Arti
cle III providing
for the subsid
iary committees
to the student
council are weak
and detailed, and
that they should
merely be pro
vided for in the
c o nstitution
proper. He sug
gests that their
duties be placed
in the by-laws in
Tom Stoddard
order that they may be changed
more easily.
Should State Qualities
He suggests that, in accordance
With the United States constitu
tion, the section entitled “General
Officers” in Article II should state
specifically the qualifications and
requisites of A. S. U. O. officers
in order to avoid conflicts that
, have been experienced recently in
this University.
The University should have a
tribunal in its organization that
would correspond to the supreme
court of the United States, he
maintains. The appointment of
the members of this body by the
executive council would be pro
vided for in the constitution, and
its duties would be to interpret
the constitution and to decide
matters such as the conflict con
cerning “Socks from Socrates,” the
anonymous paper that was put out
recently by a group of University
students.
Classes Need Writs
He also recommends that “blan
ket” constitutions for each class
on the campus be added to the
constitution, which will regulate
membership and state specifically
their duties. This will give each
class a definite authority to refer
to, thus eliminating many conflicts
that have been struggled through
in the past.
“A student body that is easy to
assess will be assessed very often,”
declared the president in advocat
ing his next suggestion, that the
constitution should state how spe
cial assessments must be made.
His plan is that for two weeks
ahead of time the Emerald pub
lish information about the pro
posed assessment. If any students
object, they can file their objec
tions in the graduate manager's
office.
The president will then decide
whether the objections are serious
or not, and if they are not, he
will bring the matter before the
executive council to be voted upon.
If the council favors it and the
student body objects, the students
may file a petition of 200 names
to have the decision repealed. If
the students favor it, the assess
ment will be laid on the students
Without question.
Suggests lell School
Stoddard’s last suggestion is to
provide for a yell-leaders’ school
to prevent conflicts such as the
University experienced this year,
and to free the matter from poli
tics. The plan would be to have
some boy who is acquainted with
the art of yell leading select sev
eral eligible meh as his pupils.
He would have a class and
would have one or two different
men act as his assistants at the
games for a year.. At the end of
the year he would refer one of
them to the president, who would
submit his name to the executive
council to be voted upon. In this
way the best man would receive
the office, and politics would play
Do part.

coolie coats to fraternity men at
Ohio State university. No luck.
But he was minus seven coats at
the end of his route, and appealed
to police for their return. He
claimed they were pilfered by the
boys and distributed among the
girl friends, as many co-eds turn
ed out in the natty outfits. -•

FROGS, CRICKETS PLAY
Tiny Insects Hop From Earth To Act in Program
By BOBBY REID
Crickets and frogs thrive in this
almost balmy spring weather. If
you don't believe it, you should
drop in Villard assembly and see
them dancing and chirruping, or
making whatever noise crickets
and frogs make when together.
Cecile Coss is the most ador
able little frog you ever saw: Then
there is Betty Fairchild. A real,
"sure-nuff” cricket just wouldn’t
have a prayer around her. It
would crawl back into its crick
ety little hole ana pine away for
lack of attention.
These frogs and crickets didn’t
creep out of the earth, but hopped
'‘From the Book of Wonder,” one
act play written by Alice Henson
Ernst, to be presented Wednesday
evening, February 5, at the Guild
Hall theater, by Phi Beta, music
and drama honorary. They appear
frequently throughout the play,
which is a fantastic dream bit,
intended only for entertainment.
The costumes for all the actors
in the play were designed by Con
stance Coe, of Portland, who is
gaining considerable recognition
for her work; Fred Harris of the
art department is in charge of
setting.
In contrast to the Peter Pan
nish quality of this play, “Get
away,” written by Sally Elliot
Allen, is the other part billed for
the same evening, also given by
the Phi Beta group. It is a tense,
psychological drama of entirely
different appeal from the other
Play.
