Kllingson noted that costs on The Emerald are already lower than similar college publications such as the Oregon State newspaper, The Barometer. He said that if it had not been for the loss of the cigarette ads, they would only be subsidizing the overhead. It was suggested that the Northwest Keview lose its fourth issue this year, but this was re jected due to obligations already incurred Jones commented that "l‘m beginning to doubt any roa son why students should continue to support it.” since it tacks wide appeal and publishes little stu dent work The Board voted to give t h e publication one years notice of withdrawal of support Discussing the publication's budget, Jones explained that pub lications were originally subsi dized for SIP,099. but a cut of $4.300 was requested by the budg et board The Publications Board, however, asked for $29,762 to meet losses resulting from the loss of cigarette advertising in The Emerald. Greater Oregon, which lost its entire budget this fall, due to the tax defeat, was voted $300 on the recommendation of the ASUO Senate.

One hundred and fifty dollars more of this amount has been spent on arrangements for the speech of Alabama Gov. George Wallace, according to board member Phil Phil Sherburne. Also voted for was $250 for a new door to the Student Un ion’s Director’s office The $1,300 cut in the programs budget was made “without any impairment of existing pro grams,” said Ellingson The $800 cut from debate and $500 music Sherburne, in tour plans. Ellingson commented that many cuts are not now possible since debts have already been incurred on many programs and the budg et board is not free to look at all areas until next year Pro posed budgets will be heard again in April.
