SENATOR-AT-LARGE
STEVE BARNETT: The path
to effective student government
must be traveled by responsible,
dedicated, hard-working people.
These qualifications I offer to
this student body as proof of my
ability to further serve the Uni-1
versity.
LARKY BRODERICK: The
position of Senator-at-Large must
act as a mirror of campus feel
ings combined with a careful
weighing of all relevant facts.
The two of these plus experi
ence must then decide the sen
ator’s vote
BRUCE BROTHERS: As Sen
tor I want a dynamic student
government, ready to represent
the student body, the backbone
of this University. The Senate
must make the needs of the stu
dents known, and work as one to
satisfy these needs.
BILL DEL BIAGOIO: It is
my belief that there should be a
closer working relationship be
tween student government and
the athletic department. As presi
dent of the Order of the O. I
have the qualifications to estab
lish this relationship.
EVERETTE DENNIS: Stream
lining registration and developing
an effective student lobby at Sa
lem to stop the rising costs of
tuition and to press for higher
student wages would be my goals
as ASUO Senator-At-Large.
MARGIE GEUTZKOW: Be
lieving in the need for balanced
representation in the Senate, I
pledge my interest, time, and
dedication. As my objective I
shall endeavor to initiate effec
tive lobbying in the State Legis
lature for the appropriation of
University funds.
DOUG GREER: To quote Sue
Brouillard, “A platform state
ment of less than 35 words? You
must be joking.”
HUB HANSON: Next year is a
legislative year. It will be up
to the ASUO Senate to act as the
voice of the students in the
state capital. I will earnestly
support all the justified meas
ures, and President Flemming in
the fight for more financial aid!
KASEY JONES: Firmly believ
ing that communication and co
operation between students and
the ASUO Senate is essential, I
have pledged my interest and de
sire to represent you to further
promote interchanegs of thought
between these two bodies.
GARY LINDBERG: It is a dif
ficult job to represent the cam- j
pus as a whole. As a Senator I
would be conscientious, well in
formed, and open to student opin
ion on issues that will come be
fore the Senate.
DENNIS LYNCH: The Univer
versity of Oregon's national pres
tige is advancing. It is imperative
that each student take pride in
the University and aid in its ad-1
vancement. I feel best qualified
to do this as an ASUO Senator.
SANDY NOSLER: As usual
several of the chief issues that
our ASUO Senate faced thisj
year were centered about athlet-1
ics. Lack of representation from
student-athletes has been the past
situation. For complete represen
tation elect Sandy Nosier, Sen
ator-at-La rge.
DEL SMITH wants to be your
Senator "Sincerity and hard work 1
is m\ goal.” His qualifications
are: Skull and Dagger. Greater
Oregon Central Board, Dads’
Weekend, etc. He is dedicated to
you and his job.
GARY RHODES: Through bet
ter use of the Emerald, the
free speech platform, and ac
tive. effective representation I
want to inform the students and
learn their views so they may be
effectively represented; thus, pro
moting truly representative stu
dent policies.
JERRY I’TTI: As freshman
class president, a member of the
Senate and student government
committee. I have seen the im
portance of student government
at the University.
Good stuaent - faculty - Senate
communications constitute an ef
fective Senate.

REPRESENTATIVE
DICK PARDINT: I favor an
unofficial IFC to complement the
present council. Many natural
inter-house problems can be more

istration representatives present.
Co-operative action and our real
views can thus be more clearly
presented.
FLOYD L. PASEMAN: I be
lieve in a more equitable rushing
plan to insure greater circulation
of rushees. Also there exists a
serious crippling lack of commun
ication between I.F.C. and (fra
ternity) Presidents Council. I
have solutions for these problems.

eral programs I would work for
if elected: the recreation area on
the millrace, a means of obtain
ing a new football staidum. and
gi eater cooperation between the
Senate, IFC, and fraternity
alumni.

Panhellenic.
MARY MORRISSEY: Having
a background of Panhellenic ex
perience, I’m aware of the need

sororities. I stand to further the
combined interests of Women’s
Greek Living Organizations

operation with Panhellenic.
